Zhang Xiaofan fell silent for a moment, as if making up his mind, and a rustling sound of straw came from beside him. He said, "Stretch out your hand."

  Ji Longfei didn't know what he was going to do, so he stretched out his palm. Suddenly, he felt that there was something more in his hand. He touched it with his finger and found it was a ring. He looked puzzled and asked: "You...what is this?"

  Feng Xiaotian didn't fall asleep either. He heard the two people talking and quietly made his way to Gu Longfei's side, asking in a low voice: "What's going on? What happened to him?"

  Zhang Xiaofan said: "This ring you take it, it has a great relationship with what I asked you to do!"

  Gu Long's heart skipped a beat, this ring had the power to traverse dimensions, but it was also a calamity waiting to happen. His arm trembled slightly as he hesitated whether or not to take it. Suddenly, he felt his sleeve being tugged from behind and knew it was Feng Xiaotian. He heard Feng Xiaotian whispering softly, "Gu Bangzhu, don't take it!"

  Feng Xiaotian's voice was small, but Zhang Xiaofan still heard it. He only heard him sigh and say: "This matter... This matter originally had a great risk in it, I shouldn't have harmed people either. Never mind, it's all my own consequences, don't implicate others!" After he finished speaking, he wanted to take the ring from Gu Longfei's hand.

  At this time, Gu Longfei's heart suddenly rose with a heroic spirit. I, Gu Longfei, couldn't even fulfill the wish of a dying person, what's the point of being human? So he withdrew his hand and grasped the ring, saying loudly: "Thank you for looking up to me and entrusting me with such an important thing! To not disappoint your trust in me, I'll brave any danger, no matter how treacherous!" In fact, he also knew that this ring had lost its ability to traverse dimensions and was no different from ordinary decorative items. It couldn't be considered mysterious anymore. He made it sound so good just to make Zhang Xiaofan feel at ease with entrusting the task to him.

  As expected, Zhang Xiaofan thanked him repeatedly after hearing this and then said: "Alright, I'll tell you. This matter is troubling me, so I'll have you take care of it! I have an elderly mother who lives alone at home. When I discovered that crossing over would cause me to age prematurely, I didn't dare to see her face-to-face, fearing she'd be heartbroken upon seeing me! Alas, it's already been several months since we last met, and I don't know how worried she must be! I'm no longer able to go back, so I want you to help me by going to see her and telling her that I won't be returning!"

  "Where does she live?"

  Zhang Xiaofan said: "In the world I live in, it's a thousand years later!"

  "Nine hundred years later? How can I go?"

  "This is the biggest difficulty in this matter! Now that the ring has lost its effect, you definitely can't go there, but I hope you can find a way to make the ring work again! When you restore the ring's power of traversal, you will have to sacrifice one year of your lifespan, and you must use it to traverse once to come to my world!"

  "Ah!" Gu Longfei wasn't afraid of himself getting a year older, but rather how to give the Qizis "a recharge", letting it regain its function!

  Zhang Xiaofan saw Gu Longfei not speaking, so he said: "Actually, I also know that we are just passing by each other, this request... This request is a bit excessive!"

  "Don't worry, I didn't mean that. What I wanted to say is... this ring, I'm not confident I can restore its function!"

  Zhang Xiaofan let out a sigh of relief and said, "This is nothing, you have time, you can slowly explore! Actually... actually even if you can't find a way, it's not a big deal, at least I'll leave behind a glimmer of hope after I die!"

  "I...!"

  Zhang Xiaofan interrupted him, saying: "You don't need to say anything else, I know I won't misjudge people! Alright, after talking so much today, I'm a bit sleepy, and it's not early anymore. Everyone should get some rest!" After finishing speaking, he turned his body to one side and no longer spoke.

  Although Gu Longfei couldn't see clearly, he estimated that the other person had turned his back on him and knew he didn't want to talk anymore. He also closed his mouth, pulled Feng Xiaotian's sleeve, and moved to another place together. They lay down on the ground, closed their eyes, and fell asleep!

  The next morning, Gu Longfei was awakened by the cold, coughed a few times, and found that Feng Xiaotian was still asleep. He pushed him a few times, and Feng Xiaotian suddenly jumped up, looked at Gu Longfei beside him, and asked: "You... why don't you sleep for a while!"

  "Gu Long Fei said: "I was woken up by the cold, sitting up seems to be a bit warmer, you also don't sleep for too long, pay attention to the coolness!""

  Feng Xiaotian suddenly shuddered and said, "You never know, sleeping doesn't feel it, but waking up is indeed a bit cold!" After he finished speaking, he looked towards Zhang Xiaofan's resting place and worriedly asked, "I don't even know how his situation is now?"

  Jiulong Fei suddenly remembered Zhang Xiaofan's words from last night, so he crawled over and touched his face. His hand felt icy cold. He quickly grabbed Zhang's wrist to take his pulse, but there was no movement. Jiulong's heart skipped a beat as he reached up to feel for a pulse in Zhang's neck, but still couldn't find one. "Oh no, he's dead!"

  Feng Xiaotian was also shocked and asked: "Is he dead?"

  "Alas, he said yesterday that time was running out, I thought he'd at least live for another ten or eight days. Who knew he'd pass away so suddenly! If only I had known he'd leave like this, I should have asked him more questions yesterday. He left us with too many unanswered questions!"

  Feng Xiatian said, "Yes, this person, no one can explain clearly. No matter who you are, when your time is up, Yan Wang will take you away at the third watch and absolutely won't let you live to see the fifth watch! Ah, he's also a pitiful person! A thousand years later, it should be such a beautiful world, but he didn't enjoy it properly and instead crossed over here, ending up in this state!"

  The two men called the guards by the gate and had them drag away Zhang Xiaofan's body. The sentry who was roasting by the fire outside the gate, already chilled to the bone, felt even more displeased when someone died again. After entering the gate, he started grumbling, saying that if he hadn't died early or late, why did he have to die on his own shift? Wasn't this just adding trouble for the two of them?!

  Jiulong Fei saw Zhang Xiaofan die a pitiful death, and his heart didn't ache. When he heard the sentry's curses, a fire rushed to his forehead, and he wanted to erupt. Feng Xiaotian tightly pulled him aside and said in a low voice: "Our troubles are already numerous, we can't afford to cause more trouble at this time! There's no need to argue with these two dogs, it would only humiliate ourselves!"

  A tall and thin sentinel turned around and shouted: "What are you two whispering about?"

  "Feng Xiaotian laughed and said: 'Nothing, nothing. We were just thinking about the New Year's Eve dinner, will we get to eat some plain rice today?'"

  Another slightly chubby person, dragging Zhang Xiaofan's foot with one hand, scolded: "You dead prisoners, still thinking of eating white rice? Dream on!"

  Jiulong Fei was furious and wanted to punch the fat face in front of him, but Feng Xiaotian quickly grabbed him tightly and held him back, waiting for the two guards to drag Zhang Xiaofan's stiff corpse outside.

  After the sentinel left, Gu Longfei stood in front of the window, with his hands on the wall and his head stretched out of the window. Through the window that was slightly larger than his head, he watched as Zhang Xiaofan's already stiff body was dragged away by the sentinel, leaving behind two curved tracks in the snow. His heart felt extremely sorrowful! Firstly, he pitied Zhang Xiaofan who had not yet reached twenty years of age and had already left this world; secondly, he lamented the brevity and impermanence of life - what fame, wealth, or power one might have, it all amounts to nothing in the end. Just like Zhang Xiaofan, even if one were to travel through the ages for five thousand years, what would be left behind? The marks left on this earth would be erased by a strong gust of wind, leaving nothing at all!

  Two people were sitting in a cold and dark prison cell, extremely bored. Gu Longfei asked Feng Xiaotian, "You were doing well in Hankou back then, how did you suddenly think of going to Japan? How did you learn about the Missouri Plan in Japan? And what means did you use to obtain it?"

  Gu Longfei, since his rebirth in this era, every event he experienced was related to the 'Missouri' plan. Although he knew that the 'Missouri' plan obtained by Feng Xiaotian with great difficulty was not real, he still wanted to understand it clearly, so as to help himself sort out his thoughts and analyze the purpose of the maker of the true 'Missouri' plan and its content!

  And in his heart, there was a faint feeling that the Japanese surrender on the USS Missouri, as mentioned by Zhang Xiaofan, had some connection with the "Missouri Plan" that many spies were eagerly waiting for! Unfortunately, Zhang Xiaofan didn't reveal more details before he died.

  Phoenix Xiao Tian knew that Gu Long Fei was his brother's confidant and had sent him a message to remind himself to be careful of the Guangtian father-son conspiracy. In the end, he thoroughly saw through Guangtian's tricks and avoided the plan from falling into Japanese hands! Moreover, recalling his experience in prison, he met Zhang Xiaofan, who was not familiar with him, and sincerely treated him, even agreeing to his last request, which showed that he completely trusted Gu Long Fei! Besides, being locked up here, having nothing to do, he began to tell the story of his trip to Japan.

  It turned out that Feng Xiaotian had studied in Beijing when he was young, and later went to Japan for further studies. After returning to China, he relied on his family's wealth to live a comfortable life in Hankou, planning to spend the rest of his life in peace. However, disaster struck, and his Japanese wife passed away. Before her death, she asked him to bring their two children to visit her parents in Japan.

  Gu Long was shocked: "Your wife is Japanese? So Feng Yaoshan and Feng Ling also have half Japanese blood?"

  Feng Xiaotian nodded and said, "Yes! When I was studying in Japan, I fell in love with my wife Sakura, and later we returned to China together, preparing to live a carefree life! Alas, who knew that after giving birth to Yaoshan and Fengling, Sakura soon became ill and passed away! In order to fulfill my promise, I took her belongings and our children to Japan!"

  Jiulong Fei heard this and couldn't help but slightly furrow his brow. This Feng Xiaotian was so patriotic, how could he marry a Japanese woman? And after his wife's death, he went to great lengths, crossing oceans, to fulfill her last wish?

  In fact, Gu Longfei lived through the years of the Anti-Japanese War and had a deep hatred for the Japanese, but at the same time, he forgot that outside of war, there are also true human emotions! Moreover, it is precisely in times of hardship and suffering that these relationships become even more precious.
