There is a village in the southern suburbs outside the city.
A group of people were lurking here separately.
This manor is owned by a local wealthy man and apparently has nothing to do with the Feng family.
At this time, there were about ten people living in the village who had escaped from the Feng family.
The older Kaze Nobita, leading his younger siblings, sat in the hall with nervous expressions.
The younger sister Feng Weiwei sobbed softly.
They were able to escape thanks to the maids and servants around them.
"Bitao pretended to be me and led away the pursuers. That's how I was able to escape..." Feng Weiwei said with a sob.
The others were also silent.
Big Brother Feng Zhibin said solemnly, "Fortunately, we released a group of people earlier, otherwise..."
A few days ago, my grandmother suddenly ordered the housekeeper to release many people in the family. Not only did she restore their freedom, but she also gave each of them a lot of silver.
All the items that could be sold in the Feng family’s shops were sold, and the items that could not be sold were given to the people who had let them out at home.
Over the next few days, most of the Feng family's servants left.
The Feng family vaguely realized that something big was going to happen at home, but they didn't expect the disaster to come so soon.
In the blink of an eye, their entire family was executed. At this moment, they only regretted that they had acted too slowly and did not send away all the irrelevant people, which wasted dozens of innocent lives!
"I don't know if I still have the chance to find Bitao's family and compensate them..." Feng Weiwei murmured in a low voice.
The Feng family has no idea what the future holds.
"Has anyone of you seen Jiaojiao?" Feng Zhibin asked.
Jiaojiao was the most gifted child of her generation, but no one had seen her when she escaped from the mansion.
"When Jiaojiao and I separated, she was called to the ancestral hall by her grandmother..."
No one said anything. Grandmother was taken away from the ancestral hall. Jiaojiao was probably in great danger.
"Shh!" Feng Zhibin signaled everyone to be quiet.
In the darkness, there were faint sounds of footsteps.
Everyone in the Feng family said nothing and looked outside the door nervously.
"Is there a Feng family member in the room?"
The footsteps outside stopped and a young man's voice sounded.
"I've been entrusted by Feng Shangshi to come and meet you all. I have the serpentine jade token Feng Shangshi gave me as proof. I also have a contact password."
Everyone looked towards Feng Zhibin.
Feng Zhibin knew about this. Before the accident, his grandmother had told him that if anything happened at home, she would give the serpentine jade token to an important person who could protect them.
Feng Zhibin exchanged secret signals with the person outside the door and let the person in.
The person who came in was none other than the man in black, Brother Yuming. He showed Feng Zhibin the jade token in his hand, which was the serpentine jade token passed down from the Feng family.
"But... I remember there was a red tassel underneath..."
Brother Yuming nodded: "The jade spike was taken away by your sister Jiaojiao!"
When she separated from Jiaojiao, she was nearly shot by an arrow. At the critical moment, a red light flashed, and Jiaojiao disappeared, leaving only an arrow stuck in the wall, trembling in the air.
Anyone else might be puzzled by this situation, but the knowledgeable Yuming was reassured. He knew that if someone could disappear, they would definitely be safe.
He waited in the dark for a long time. After the pursuers left, Jiaojiao still showed no sign of coming out. Then he turned back and went to Feng's house to see if he could save other people.
"Jiaojiao? Where is she? Is she okay now?" Feng Zhibin and others asked hurriedly.
Brother Yuming didn't know where Jiaojiao had gone, but he was sure of one thing: Jiaojiao would be fine.
Wherever she went, there must be a reason.
Just like him!
