"Where's that sound coming from?!"

"Light the torches!"

Shouts of surprise were heard, but everyone was well-trained and did not panic even though they were startled.

Qiao Diyi walked quickly and arrived beside the major general ahead of everyone else.

Only when he got closer did Qiao Diyi see clearly that this young general looked very young. He should be Mo Qiandai's second son, Mo Yongsheng.

"Major General, are you okay?"

Qiao Diyi spoke quickly, "full of concern," and leaned forward.

Mo Yongsheng turned around, his face full of impatience, "What can I do——"

Before he could finish his words, the bloody dagger was already against his neck.

Qiao Diyi didn't think that Mo Yongsheng was an ordinary person. He flipped his left hand and stretched out another dagger. His movements were extremely fast. He stabbed Mo Yongsheng's waist twice, but avoided the vital parts.

"Ah! You—"

Cries of pain were heard and torches were lit at this moment.

Everyone looked up with lingering fear, and suddenly they all froze in place.

The major general was seen leaning to the side, with a man supporting him from behind and holding a dagger against his throat!

The young general covered his waist with his right hand, from where blood gushed out, instantly dyeing the back of his hand red and dripping onto the ground.

"Major General!"

Everyone came to their senses and were terrified!

Qiao Diyi dragged Mo Yongsheng back two steps, and after he had distanced himself from the crowd, he said in a stern voice:

"Don't let anyone come over here, or I'll kill him!"

"Qiao Diyi!"

At this time, a voice rose.

Everyone turned their heads and saw Shen Yuanbai with a gloomy brow, walking out of the woods.

When Qiao Diyi saw Shen Yuanbai, the corner of his mouth raised slightly, and there was a bit more inquiry in his eyes when he looked at him.

The others hurriedly gathered around Shen Yuanbai with panicked looks on their faces.

"This man is Qiao Zhongguo's second son, Qiao Diyi!"

Shen Yuanbai spoke again, causing everyone's faces to change.

They didn’t know Qiao Diyi, but they all knew the name of Qiao Zhongguo!

When Mo Yongsheng heard Qiao Diyi's identity, his already pale face became even uglier.

He looked up at Shen Yuanbai, a hint of regret faintly revealed in his furrowed brows.

They had just mentioned the Qiao family during the day, but they didn't expect that the Qiao family would actually come...

When everyone learned that the visitor was Qiao Zhongguo's son, their already panicked mood became even more frightened.

"You...what do you want to do!"

Someone boldly shouted at Qiao Diyi.

Qiao Diyi laughed in anger when he heard this, "Northern bandits! You are spreading the plague here, you are so cruel and evil, and you even have the nerve to ask me what I want to do!"

He exerted force suddenly and blood started to seep out of Mo Yongsheng's neck.

"Don't hurt the Major General!"

Everyone was afraid to take action and did not dare to step forward.

At this time, Qiao Diyi looked up at Shen Yuanbai and suddenly said in a low voice:

"You can't stop me. Anyone who dares to attack me will bear the name of killing the young general. If anyone is not afraid of being investigated by Mo Qiandai, just come forward!"

When these words were spoken, everyone's heart skipped a beat. Everyone looked at each other and no one dared to step forward.

They were recruited by the imperial court and were, after all, common people, not as noble as the status of a major general.

If the young general had been kidnapped by Qiao Diyi today, he would at least have kept his life. If he really died here, they would probably have no chance of survival.

After all, they all knew General Mo's reputation and his thundering methods.

At this point, everyone looked at Shen Yuanbai.

King Beigui has the highest status among those present, so they just have to obey his orders.

Shen Yuanbai noticed everyone's gaze, and when he looked at Qiao Diyi not far away, the corners of his mouth curled up almost imperceptibly.

He had known for a long time that the person who would come here must be Qiao Diyi.

And Qiao Diyi came alone, how could Qiao Jiaojiao not give Qiao Diyi a way to save his life?

With the blessing of supernatural powers, Qiao Diyi is invincible today.

Mo Yongsheng was a proud, self-willed person. He had deliberately reminded him during the day because he knew Mo Yongsheng's rebellious mentality and he would definitely not be on guard.

That old villain Mo Qiandai could even come up with the idea of ​​"eliminating Yong with an epidemic", which shows that he is a cruel and ruthless person. Whether his beloved son is killed or captured, it will make him even more crazy.

As he thought of this, a gleam of light flashed in Shen Yuanbai's eyes.

Let's make it messy, it's better to be a little messy...

Seeing that everyone was waiting for his decision, Shen Yuanbai's face was full of "confusion", and it was obvious that he found it difficult to make a decision.

When Mo Yongsheng saw this, he took a deep breath and suddenly rushed towards the dagger in Qiao Diyi's hand!

Qiao Diyi was always on guard. Seeing this, he moved forward and then raised his hands to cover Mo Yongsheng's mouth and nose.

Mo Yongsheng took a breath of foul air, swayed his whole body, and felt the strength in his body begin to drain away.

His heart suddenly felt cold.

He had not struggled just now because he was waiting for Qiao Diyi's attention to be distracted so that he could gather his strength to commit suicide.

I didn't expect Qiao Diyi to react so quickly. It shows that he was well prepared and had already seen through his thoughts. He was waiting for him here!

Seeing that he couldn't die, Mo Yongsheng could only force himself to shout:

"Hurry up and kill him! It's worth it to exchange my life for the life of Qiao Zhongguo's son!"

Qiao Diyi sneered when he heard this: "You want to live up to your reputation of loyalty, but don't forget your father's reputation for killing people without blinking an eye!"

"If you die in front of them today, how can they survive?"

Qiao Diyi had already seen through everyone's hesitation their concerns.

This time he came here not only to break the source of the epidemic set by the northern bandits, but also to bring Mo Yongsheng back to Wuding!

He wants to use Mo Yongsheng's blood to sacrifice the souls of the people who died unjustly in Wuding and refute the saying of "heaven's punishment". By then, people's hearts will be comforted and everyone will be united, so that they can eliminate the epidemic and conquer the northern country together!

When Shen Yuanbai heard this, he suddenly raised his eyes to look at Qiao Diyi, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

In his impression, Qiao Diyi was more of a brave but reckless person. The last confrontation with him was at Baopiling. Although Qiao Diyi had ambushed there early on, his methods were not very sophisticated.

In Shen Yuanbai's opinion, if it was Qiao Zhongguo or Qiao Tianjing who ambushed him at that time, he might not be able to wait for Yinzhu alive.

I didn't expect that after more than a year, even Qiao Diyi has grown to this point...

Mo Yongsheng was very anxious when he saw that everyone was really not moving.

After he is kidnapped, he will eventually die. If he can replace Qiao Diyi here, it won't be considered a disgrace to his father!

"Your Majesty, I was the one who spoke without restraint during the day. You were sent by the King, so you should know that the overall situation is more important. My life is really insignificant! Give the order now!"

Upon hearing this, Shen Yuanbai was hesitant and opened his mouth but could not say anything to ask everyone to take action.

At this moment, a deep voice came from the birch forest behind everyone:

"Master, I will bring the Qiao family army to help!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone turned their heads and their faces changed drastically!

The name of Qiao's army is well-known in the north!

Qiao Diyi raised the corner of his mouth, took the opportunity to cover Mo Yongsheng's mouth, and quickly dragged him away, who was already exhausted!

Everyone looked behind them warily, except Shen Yuanbai, who faced the firelight and watched Qiao Diyi go away quietly.

The moment his eyes met Qiao Diyi's, Shen Yuanbai raised the corners of his mouth slightly, his thin lips moved slightly, and he said something silently.

Qiao Diyi frowned, grabbed Mo Yongsheng and quickly hid in the birch forest in the dark night.

There were more than a hundred soldiers present, and some actually saw Qiao Diyi leaving, but everyone pretended to be stupid and no one dared to chase after him.

In the darkness at this moment, the sad and melodious song sounded again, and this time it gave Qiao Diyi guidance.

Qiao Diyi walked quickly along the way, his face looking slightly gloomy.

He could vaguely distinguish what Shen Yuanbai had just said:

"Call your sister here. I have a great gift for her..."
