Fei Cai is Fei Qing's son, a Fei tribe survivor who becomes Ma Ying Jie's personal servant after Ma tribe takes warm pond valley.
During Fei tribe’s collapse at warm pond valley, the poisoned Gu Master Fei Qing pushes his son Fei Cai to flee along a north-west path and names the boy’s Huang Jin bloodline thick enough for Eighty-Eight True Yang Building. Fei Cai weeps, runs the wrong directions until corrected, and escapes while Fei Chang turns from hunting him to defend the camp. Ma tribe then finishes Fei tribe by exploiting that internal discord. ch. 488
Appearance
He is a child. ch. 488 At Ma tribe camp he wears tattered and dirty clothes. ch. 520 Zhao Lian Yun is too short to pat his shoulder unless he squats. ch. 522
Personal servant
After that wipeout Ma Ying Jie chooses the blur survivor as a personal servant, which keeps him from the worse fates of other Fei captives. His daily work is managing shoes outside the tent for a clean-freak young tribe leader who makes every guest change footwear. Zhao Lian Yun befriends him for camp information. When old slaves frame him for stealing Ma Ying Jie’s shoes, he covers the pair in silk and claims he only meant to keep them warm; Ma Ying Jie, who is obsessed with cleanliness, accepts the silk cover, then punishes him into head of the slaves so he must serve more closely. ch. 520 ch. 521 Later camp talk still calls him Ma Ying Jie’s slave leader in charge of everyday life. ch. 529
Battlefield escape
As a mortal head servant he rides out with Ma Ying Jie to the decisive battle, flees with Zhao Lian Yun when Ma tribe breaks, and is ignored by pursuers because both are mortals. They crash a carriage, then spot an injured rider who is Ma Ying Jie. ch. 543 When Ma Ying Jie wakes, Fei Cai’s joyous face is his first sight, and both Fei Cai and Zhao Lian Yun nod that they saved him. ch. 544 Back at warm pond valley Fei Cai rolls down a slope, uncovers a hidden spirit spring, and hears Ma Ying Jie rename him Hong Yun, Fei Hong Yun, as a luck omen for Ma tribe. Later history under that name is on Ma Hong Yun. ch. 545
