However, the boy did not seem to intend to let her go, and he continued to throw stones on the ground at her in a vicious manner.

"Don't think I won't kill you if you don't say anything. Hand over the things, or don't blame me for making you die like these piles of bones without a burial place!"

This handsome boy actually came here for the things on her body...

But the most valuable thing she has right now is this rosewood box.

She continued to remain silent.

"You're not really going to die, are you? Give me the things before you die!"

Feng Qiongzhu was shocked. Could it be that he knew the secret of the wooden box?

She looked up. Wait…

This sickly girl finally remembered who he was. Wasn't this Yun Kaizhou, the prince of Prince Duan's Mansion?

The sickly child who was born prematurely and was infected with the virus in the womb was predicted by the Imperial Hospital to not live past the age of fourteen.

However, she had saved his life in her previous life, and calculating the time, he has lived to the age of eighteen now.

Feng Qiongzhu felt mixed emotions, she felt angry and helpless.

She was the apprentice of a ghost doctor and the queen of hell on the battlefield, but now she had fallen to the point of being bullied by a weak and sickly person...

It's so frustrating. This sick guy, I really want to stab him to death with a needle.

She decided to calm the sickly boy down first.

So, she dug out the red sandalwood box from the pile of bones, looked up at him and rolled her eyes, with a weird smile on her face: "Are you looking for this thing?"

There is not a single good person in the Yun family, and now they are coveting her sandalwood treasure box. This sick guy, if she had not lost any strength now, she would have to kill him first!

Seeing this, a trace of greed flashed in Yun Kaizhou's eyes: "The secret box is indeed on you!" As he said that, he reached out and snatched the sandalwood treasure box.

Feng Qiongzhu held onto the corner of his clothes tightly and refused to let go: "You can take the box but you have to take me out. Only I can open this trap box!"

Yun Kaizhou frowned and threatened: "What qualifications do you have to negotiate with me? I don't believe that there is no one else in the world who can open this box except you!"

She had a bad feeling when she heard the howling of wild beasts in the distance.

Feng Qiongzhu's heart tightened, but she still insisted on her condition: "If you don't take me out, I will make sure that this box can never be opened!"

Yun Kaizhou was so angry that he raised his leg and kicked her again: "Then I'll leave you here to feed the wild beasts!"

This time the kick made her spit out blood and faint.

Seeing that she had no reaction, Yun Kaizhou turned around resolutely and said, "Let's go!"

Driven by the desire to survive, Feng Qiongzhu's consciousness gradually awakened, and she struggled to open her eyes.

Looking around, she realized that she couldn't stay here any longer.

She used up all her strength and called out weakly: "Yun Kaizhou, please, save me!"

You rotten heartless thing, you shouldn't have been tempted by his handsome appearance and went to so much trouble to save him.

Yun Kaizhou turned around suddenly, his eyes as ferocious as a wild beast, staring at Feng Qiongzhu.

"Do you recognize me? Do you know my name?" His voice was low, revealing strong doubts.

Feng Qiongzhu said weakly but firmly: "That sandalwood treasure box is a Luban mechanism lock. No one can open it except me. I beg you to save me. I don't want to die here." As soon as she finished speaking, she fainted again.

A crow was perched on a tree not far away, staring at the movements here in the dark with a grim look.

If this unlucky wild girl is left here any longer, she will probably be immediately attracted by crows and wild dogs to eat her flesh.

Yun Kaizhou frowned and weighed the pros and cons in his mind.

Forget it, for the sake of this sandalwood treasure box.

"Take her with you." Yun Kaizhou finally made a decision.

His voice was calm and gentle, but there was an unquestionable firmness in his tone.

The man in black beside him immediately stepped forward, roughly lifted Feng Qiongzhu's body with one hand and threw her onto his shoulder.

The group of people worked in tacit understanding and quickly used their internal energy to grab the rope on the edge of the cliff and climb up like flying over the eaves.

The night is dark and the streets are silent.

Feng Qiongzhu woke up from her coma and found herself being carried on someone's shoulders and running fast. The violent shaking made her stomach churn.

Her limbs were weak and her head was dizzy. Although she was filled with fear, she did not dare to resist.

Finally, she couldn't bear it anymore and shouted loudly, demanding that she be let down.

"Put me down now! I'm going to vomit..."

No matter how much she made noise and slapped, the man in black remained silent.

A group of people ran all the way and finally stopped in front of a remote house.

This house looks very ordinary, a small house with blue brick walls, a black tile roof, and the walls are covered with moss, revealing traces of time everywhere.

Just when Feng Qiongzhu thought they were about to knock on the door of the mansion, she was stunned by the group's next move.

"No, you guys are sick, right? There's a door but you don't use it, but climb over the wall?"

Feng Qiongzhu was thrown directly from the wall into the yard and collapsed on the ground.

Ignoring the pain in his body, he was about to curse, but he saw a sword unsheathed in front of him, full of threats.

She chose to shut up instantly and had to support herself and stand up shakily.

In the quiet courtyard, she raised her head and breathed in the air of the world deeply.

At this moment, she smelled the familiar scent of orchid flowers.

With such a strong fragrance, it seems that the poison has penetrated deeper into Feng Kaizhou's bones.

Her stomach growled and Feng Qiongzhu covered her stomach in embarrassment.

She had not eaten for a day and a night since she fled from the manor to the cliff.

My lips are cracked and peeling, my voice is hoarse and my throat is smoking.

She put away her embarrassment and pleaded with the man in black in the courtyard in a low voice: "Brother, can you please give me some water to drink? It would be even better if I could have something to eat..."

However, the man in black still did not respond.

Feng Qiongzhu did not give up and continued to plead: "It would not be worthwhile for you to let me die of starvation and thirst, right? Just save people to the end. I am still very useful..."

Suddenly a sword handle was pressed against her back, poking her repeatedly.

While poking him, he asked, "So tell me, what use can you have, a skinny little chicken like you?"

Feng Qiongzhu felt like she was going crazy. She shouted angrily, "Stop poking me, you sick bastard. If you keep poking me, I'll either fall to death or starve to death, or I'll be poked to death by you!"

Yun Kaizhou was shocked and his face turned pale.

He stared at her with wide eyes and incredulous expression: "You dead girl, who are you calling a sickly girl? Do you believe that I will chop you up and feed you to the dogs right now?"

Then, he was hit by a violent cough and his face turned red.

She looked up and her gaze met his eyes which were as deep as a cold pool.

He was wearing a black brocade silk robe, which brought a little chill.

The breeze lifted a strand of hair on her temples. Her long black hair was tied high behind her head, fixed only with a dark green jade hairpin.

The hands holding the swords are so white, and the hilts make the fingers look slender and dazzling.
