Lady Daxi had indeed been captured alive. Blind Bei was a fine opportunist. Zheng Fan had noticed this during a lunch at a tavern in Hutou City, where Blind Bei, like Zheng Fan himself, had delicately extracted the marrow from a lamb bone with his chopsticks and then slowly sipped it.
Their eyes met briefly at that moment, and each of them seemed to blush for a fleeting instant.
From that moment on, Zheng Fan recognized that he and Blind Bei were cut from the same cloth.
Of course, one would typically say a son resembles his father, not the other way around. In this instance, however, it was Blind Bei who was akin to him.
Given the chance, Blind Bei preferred to capture his targets alive. This was apparent from the moment they launched their assault on Lady Daxi; Blind Bei's first target, surprisingly, had been Lady Daxi's horse.
Zheng Fan didn't dare to ask if horses were targeted because they were less intelligent and thus easier to control mentally.
