The night was deep, and all was silent.
In no time, Little Fox reached the camp, avoiding the patrols, heading towards Mu Qiancheng’s quarters.
When it entered through the window, Mu Qiancheng, who had been asleep, was already awake. As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw a shadow slip into his room, and his expression changed. He lay quietly on the bed, waiting.
Soon, the shadow reached his bedside and began to squeak.
Hearing the sound, Mu Qiancheng was startled and quickly turned on the room light. As the light came on, he realized that it was a little fox that had come through the window.
Wait, why does this fox look so familiar?
Mu Qiancheng looked closely at the little fox and quickly recognized it. A smile appeared on his face, and he said, "It’s you, how come you’re here?"
Little Fox, seeing Mu Qiancheng recognized it, squeaked again, then stood up, revealing a letter tied to its belly.
Mu Qiancheng, looking at it, was momentarily stunned and then picked up Little Fox, untying the letter.
Holding the letter, he quickly opened it and read. The more he read, the more his expression darkened. It was a letter from Jiang Xue, and she had been captured.
No, he had to rescue Jiang Xue. Although she asked him in the letter not to save her, saying she was fine, how could he be at ease?
So, Mu Qiancheng quickly put on his clothes, then left the room and knocked on the door next to his.
"Chen Ming, my wife is in trouble. I need to rescue her. I’m leaving things here to you."
"What? Sister-in-law is in trouble? What happened?" Chen Ming was taken aback, looking at Mu Qiancheng with a serious face. Yesterday afternoon, Wang Liang was attacked by a herd of wild boars, and Mu Qiancheng almost got shot while saving him.
Now, his wife was in trouble too. Why did things seem not so simple? Dıscover more novels at 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡⁂𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢⁂𝘯𝘦𝘵
"It’s ..." Mu Qiancheng briefly explained the situation and then said, "I must go save her, and I don’t know when I’ll be back, so I’ll leave everything here to you."
Having said that, Mu Qiancheng was about to leave. Unexpectedly, Chen Ming said, "Qiancheng, wait a moment!"
"Is there something else?" Mu Qiancheng looked at Chen Ming and asked. He had to hurry to rescue, and there wasn’t much time to waste here.
"Qiancheng, sister-in-law is unlikely to be in immediate danger. We need to discuss a rescue plan carefully."
"How about this, you come in first. Let me put on my clothes, and we can sit down to discuss." Chen Ming said while retreating back into his room, picking up clothes from the bedside to put on.
Originally, Mu Qiancheng had planned to rescue her alone. But after hearing Chen Ming’s suggestion, he wasn’t in such a hurry. Chen Ming was right; the target was him, and they likely wouldn’t harm Jiang Xue for now.
They needed to come up with a well-thought-out plan first to avoid failing to rescue her and putting Jiang Xue in further danger.
Mu Qiancheng entered Chen Ming’s room, and the two discussed and devised a rescue plan.
Once the plan was set, Mu Qiancheng followed Little Fox, while Chen Ming stayed behind to gather everyone and report to the superiors.
Receiving Chen Ming’s report, the superiors immediately issued instructions to rescue Jiang Xue at all costs and severely punish those evildoers.
With the superiors’ orders, it became a justified mission.
Chen Ming settled down and gathered everyone, heading to the location Mu Qiancheng had left.
Mu Qiancheng, following Little Fox, quickly reached the mountain pass, spotting several tents pitched there, his gaze turned serious.
