of silver wouldn't amount to much for her to pay out, the fat old man's four thousand taels would be more than enough to buy the barren mountain.Fang Jinshi shook her head. "You Zhao family, I can't a...Zongyu dragged Fang Jinshi as they struggled to flee through the snow. Luckily, they came across a patch of trees, which provided some cover and made their figures less conspicuous than they would have been in the open expanse of snow.

At a glance.

After entering the forest, Zong Yu's methods for hiding the brocade could become more numerous.

He led her up a tall tree, using the thick branches to shield them from the pursuing soldiers' sight. They finally had a moment to catch their breath.

Zongyu was physically fit, even with a few wounds on his body, he didn't feel tired. He just looked a bit disheveled from running and fighting.

Ke Fang Jinxiu is out of the question.

He turned back and saw that his wife's originally rosy face was now as white as the snow on the ground. Besides gasping for breath, she couldn't utter a single word.

To avoid dragging down the team's reputation, Fang Jinshu gritted her teeth and kept pace with his speed.

But her physical condition couldn't compare to Zong Yu's. Moreover, after becoming pregnant, there were some subtle changes in her demeanor.

The day before yesterday, I had a high fever, and now my body doesn't have much energy.

She's nearly half dead just to make it this far.

Even so, she didn't say a word.

Zong Yu's clenched fist hurt from the pressure, his fingertips digging into the flesh.

"Jinxiu, you rest against the tree trunk for a while first."

He took off his thick coat and wrapped it around Fang Jinshu, keeping her warm.

Fang Jinshu raised her hand to refuse, and when she opened her mouth, her voice was all wrong.

"No, even if you're stripped, you'd still be cold. And if you fall, I'll have no way to escape these people's clutches."

She wouldn't say it that way, Zong Yu wouldn't listen to her at all.

Even though she said this, Zong Yu didn't listen and still insisted on wrapping her up in clothes.

"I'm healthy and not afraid of the cold."

"You forgot, I can stay in the snowy mountains for half a month wearing only one layer of clothes."

That experience almost cost him his life.

Fang Jinshi smiled weakly, "That's probably your limit, isn't it You're lucky to be alive."

This fool, thinks she doesn't know how dangerous the situation was back then just because he didn't say anything.

In short, I don't allow you to take your clothes off.

He raised his hand and gently wiped away the bloodstains on Fang Jinxiu's cheek, saying in a harsh voice.

"Be obedient."

Fang Jinshi looked at him silently. She knew that no matter what she said now, A Yu wouldn't listen. If something happened to her first, A Yu would go crazy.

After a long silence, she finally spoke, "Alright."

He saw that she wasn't struggling to get her clothes back, so he let out a breath and continued to observe his surroundings.

"It's not safe to stay in the trees for long. These people can't find our footprints in the woods, they'll figure out we're hiding up here sooner or later."

Fang Jinshi nodded, a flash of ruthlessness in her eyes.

"Fleeing is only a last resort. If you want to live and get back from these assassins, you have to kill them."

Zong Yu remained silent, but he agreed with Jin Xiu's statement.

"You rest in the tree. I'll go."

"No!" Fang Jinshu pulled on the man's arm.

"If you weren't injured, you could still handle them."

"You have several deep wounds, you lost a lot of blood. Going alone, the probability of coming back is too low."

She couldn't bear to watch Zong Yu die. If only one of them could survive, that man would certainly choose to die with those assassins.

Fang Jinshi didn't need to ask; he already knew he would do this.

So she couldn't let him leave.

“I have a way to take them all down without having to fight them head-on.”

Zongyu asked, "What is the way"

"Do you still remember the traps Li Gou set in the mountains when we were catching him in the village before"

>

Fang Jinshu nodded.

"But there are at least twenty assassins chasing us, all of them highly skilled in martial arts and with a keen sense of awareness. What kind of trap could we set to capture them all"

Fang Jinshi fell silent for a moment, then raised her finger and pointed at herself.

"I."

"Their primary target, the person Li Lie wanted to kill, was actually me."

"There's also a large net in the space, let's bury it in the snow. You pull the rope from the tree."

I stood behind the net as bait. They would definitely come in.uck of my life."Hearing this, Fu Ming was astonished. Could there really be a woman in the world who cared so little about fame, fortune, status, and powerFang Jinxiu once again refreshed Fu Ming's p...
