Ran Qing who stood nearby suddenly let out smotheredexclamation, left chest suddenly pierce with arrow and the blood gushes out.The arrow cannot be pull out from theflesh.Below the faint moonlight glow, RanQing eyebrow pinched. The arrow tip is short, but the shaft with feather is long.No wonder they pierce the flesh but does not go too deep, it will not damageheart and lungs.
“ Looks like they are not trying to kill us...”. Ran Qing voicesuddenly seems smaller, his body tumbles forward and began to falter andshakes.. he had to stand up using his sword to prop him up from the floor, tremblingand started cursing, “ They, they...their Grandmother! They soak this arrow tipwith drugs”.
Luo Yun see Ran Qing trying to stand but a little bit unstable,his face slightly changed and ordered someone to support Ran Qing to protecthim from more arrows that coming.
Luo Yun :"I amafraid, they want to catch us alive." with cold expression said.
Rong Hu automatically glance at Feng Ming.
Feng Ming shudders and laughs nervously, "I'm no good with being caughtalive. So we got no other choice. My sword, let them taste it! "Releasethe small boat!"
Although his guts are small, when the time come he’s not a coward.
On those days at Dong Fan Royal Palace, the war carnage wasmore horrible than this. If to compare is like heaven and earth. Let him fullyacquainted with this situation and deal with it to show his ability. After allthat is the aim of this journey, to show everyone he can be depend on.
Even though afraid that life will be finished today.
“Young Lord, I am afraid that the ship would soon ...... .."
Feng Mingin themiddle of coming arrow let out a loud call, "other things no need tothink! Release the small boat, earlier they continue to strike the bottom ofthe ship! As long as the ship unsinkable easier to handle."
"Young Lord, here dangerous, you first withdraw ...... .."
Instantly, Feng Ming memory of Rong Tian and him at Dong Fan resurface,when he asked him to leave him to fight the enemy alone.Remembering that, his resolution to fightbeing brought forth.
Feng Ming : "What withdrawal? I tell you to release the small boat!Let them shoot fire arrow to attack the enemy ships, to shield our ship."
Feng Ming issue several commands, even though this is merely a usualcounterattack method to adopt when ships being attacked, certainly doesn’tthink it’s a clever strategy, but suddenlythey suffer another attack, the ship suddenly hit the bottom soil, the small boatalso suffer the raining arrow making them unable to release any attack. . Atthis moment, he as the young lord has revealed fearless spirit in facing peril,making every member of Xiao Family men who always look down on him feeling amazed.
Immediately the sound of slaughtering began, everyonefighting to the death, men brandish their sword or wielding a large shield,continuously unable to rush forward and attack because their small boat being suppressedby the raining arrows. Finally, one after another fall into the water.
“Keep the ship steady! “ . Feng Ming grab Luo Deng who isguarding his right side, “you are the only one who has qualification topersonally handle the ship’s helm.Evendie also need to make sure this ship didn’t continue to stuck like this.”Facing Luo deng , Feng Ming cried out. “Let our ship face directly oppositewith the enemy ship” , Feng Ming makes sure that Luo Deng clear about his command andwaves him away to immediately carry it.
"Rong Hu!", Feng Ming shouted.
"Rong Hu here, Duke Ming!"
"You ......." Feng Ming can feel his forehead full of sweats,just lookingat the chaos in front his whole heart is in cold sweat and frightened. But hehas to find a way to save them. "You lead the archers and give them fiercecounterattack." Feng Ming grit his teeth and after thinking said,"Shoots at their ship’s banner bearer who giving the signals.”
Just watching own Xia Family fleet was suppressed until unable to resist hasmade Feng Ming feels in useless vexation.
Regardless of where the enemy ships comes from, they truly really hit the fleet vital place,totally do melee attacks actually dominating the upstream while wrecking theship’s outer body while countless arrows also raining on them making it harder forthem to resist the onslaught.
“Even though everyone knows that Xiao Family men are the best sword master but rightnow Xiao Family men most proud group of experts is just simply useless. “
“Now , I should be the one to lead us out alive and showthem my greatness. After all, I should be a person whom “be daring regardless of personal danger, dash ahead regardless ofone's safety “to be able to call myself as Xiao Family Young Lord.” Feng Mingsilently thinking.
"Rong Hu accepts your command! But, Duke Ming.......I need toprotect you "
"Luo Yun will be the one to protect me."
TLN: “be daringregardless of personal danger, dash ahead regardless of one's safety” is anIdiom fèn bú gù shēn -奋不顾身
