The moon is dark and the wind is high at night, when murderers and arsonists.

The bell tower on the city wall made a dull sound, which startled the birds in the corner of the eaves.

The vermilion gate was gently opened a crack, looked at the person, and then opened half of the door, a carriage drove low-key to the palace, and the gate was also closed tightly.

In the corner of the palace, the little emperor walked into an inconspicuous house with two entourages, and disappeared into the darkness along the secret passage.

Shi Feng was packed in a box and bumped all the way to the palace. When the box was opened, he had already arrived in a dark basement. The place was quite simple, and there was a big dilapidated furnace next to it, which looked like a huge blacksmith shop.

He was tricked into drinking the drugged wine, his body was so limp and unable to move, he could only curl up powerlessly in the box.

Two soldiers grabbed the box and looked inside.

"Hey, is this guy a wind-knowledge?"

"it's him."

"It's pretty pretty, Shui Ling."

"Do you think it's the same as you? People don't need to put on this broken iron shell to patrol this place every day in the cold winter months."

"Hey! You two, stop chatting. Someone is coming. Hurry up and light the stove!"

"Hey, I see, it's really hard work..."

The half-open door was pushed open with a creak, and everyone in the room knelt down in unison after seeing the person coming.

"Okay, hurry up and get to work, where's Qi Yu'an?"

"Go back to the emperor, the minister is here."

An old man pushed his way through the crowd and knelt before him.

"Can it be done tonight?"

"It's hard to say, this person is a mixed blood, not a pure spirit race, and his personal wishes will also affect the forging of the spirit blade. If the grievances are too deep, the spirit blade will also be full of hostility, difficult to control, and it takes time to forge It will be longer."

"What should I do?"

"Your Majesty, I can give it a try. You might as well let me have a private talk with Young Master Zhifeng. Maybe he will agree."

"You? But you caught him in, would he believe you?"

The emperor turned around and looked at the people behind him.

"Your Majesty, please give me a chance."

"Okay, you go and try."

"Thank you, Your Majesty. Come and bring Master Zhifeng to the west room."

"Yes."

A soldier lifted Shikaze from his box on his shoulders and led him through a dark corridor to a secluded room.It was still very simple here, with only two chairs, a table, and solid walls all around.

"Oh, you want to open it too."

The soldier put him on a chair and spoke to him.

"I heard that you led a group of women to make General Cheng lose a lot of men and horses. You are capable, and you can be regarded as a person in the eyes of General Chi. You said that your life is almost the same, and you should have a good time." Now that you are dead, there is nothing to lose, you want to open up, there is nothing perfect in this world."

After speaking, he looked at Shifeng and sighed, turned and left.

Shifeng was not afraid, nor was he very worried, he subconsciously thought that Chi Muge would definitely come to rescue him.

"What are you thinking? Do you want to delay General?"

Cheng Qing walked in quietly and walked around behind him.

"Unfortunately, he may not be able to save you. However, you can save him."

"What do you mean?"

"Oh? Can you still talk? It seems that I really underestimated you."

"Humph."

"Don't be angry yet. Don't you want to know what General Chi is doing now?"

"I don't need you to tell me."

"That can't be done. After all, this is a major matter related to the survival of the country."

"The survival of the country? It's ridiculous. When you destroyed Anning City, did you think about the survival of the country? Such a country, don't mind it!"

"Okay, okay, I know you are young and energetic, and many things don't make sense to you, and I don't want to argue with you about this."

"Hmph, I don't want to hear your nonsense either."

"Let's talk about General Chi. The Qi Kingdom united with the northern barbarians to raise troops, and Cangyue City was in danger. General Chi went to lead the troops, but you also know that the treasury has been empty these years, and three sons took over the heir. Hurt vitality, we have little chance of winning."

"You guys are really shameless! You even dealt with Anning City while he was away, what good would it do you!"

"What's the good? Only with your blood giving Spirit Blade the edge can we be sure to win this war, and your sweetheart will not die in the chaos. You don't want to see him being trampled to death by the enemy." Save it? You don’t want to see these countless lives burnt to death, do you? Of course he won’t let you use your sacrificial sword, we will be the bad guys, and you, only you, can save him and all these people.”

"You sent him to die, you despicable and shameless villains! How absurd! You let him go to the front to fight, but you hid behind your back and gnawed at the backbone of this country. How can you be worthy of the title of general!"

"So you are young. Not all military officers are used to go to the battlefield. The court is the biggest battlefield, and the emperor is the key to victory."

"You guys, cough cough..."

"Okay, stop rambling, the border war is imminent, do you want him to live or die, think about it for yourself."

After Cheng Qing finished speaking, he patted his shoulder and walked out.

Shi Feng closed his eyes, tears streaming down uncontrollably.

Those long-term longings, as well as the fear of distant places, made him overwhelmed.

On the day before leaving, he hugged him, told him everything that had been arranged in detail, and told him not to trust others easily, not to let the troops outside the city into the city, to take good care of himself, to be Be sure to think about him when he comes back.

He still screwed up everything, he still couldn't catch up to him.

He opened his eyes, but couldn't see the light, leaving him, the world turned out to be a dark place.

The light and heat you gave me, I can only return with iron and blood.

"Alright, it's for you after all."

People hiding in the ground were busy coming in and out like ants. The fiery red iron stove emitted hot light, reflecting on everyone's face, and the fire light jumped in every pair of eyes.

When the golden rooster breaks dawn, the world is once again bathed in the light of birth, and the busy people finally stop.

The people who came in a hurry raised the sword presented by the soldiers, and wiped off the last trace of ashes on its edge against the morning sun shining through the eaves.

"Okay, what should it be called?"

"Back to the emperor, this sword can break the wind and divide the water, why not call it a cut!"

"It's not good, it's too hostile. Break the wind and divide the water... Heh, why not call it Zhefeng, and it's worthy of a beauty."

"Your Majesty is wise."

The little emperor put the sword back on the sword holder, turned around, and looked at the misty morning glow.

"Send this sword to City Lord Cang Yue, and tell him that I will give him what he wants, and when he plans to give it what I want."

"Your Majesty, this sword doesn't have a sheath yet!"

"I don't need it in the sheath, I want it in the man's heart, understand?"

The old man hesitated for a moment, and replied respectfully:

"Yes."
