But this time, they searched for a long time, but they didn't see blood.

A man in black hesitated and asked, "Commander, are we lost?" ”

"Impossible." Chen Zhongqi flatly denied it.

He narrowed his eyes, looked around carefully, and waved his hand, "It's around here, find it for me." ”

The Nine Princes, who were hidden behind the tree, watched more than a dozen black-clothed people scatter, and couldn't help but sweat in their hearts, for fear that they would find the cave.

It is also strange to say that those people passed by the mouth of the cave several times, but they didn't seem to see it, and they didn't even think to go in to see it.

After searching for some time, no one was found, and a group of people gathered together again to report the results. Chen Zhongqi was suspicious in his heart, it was impossible for the three of them to disappear like this, they must have been hiding somewhere. He didn't want to just let people go and let people continue to search.

Everyone complained in their hearts, it was too difficult to find someone in this deep mountain and old forest, but Chen Zhongqi said that if they didn't want to find it, they could only find it.

But this time the result was even worse, after searching in the forest for a long time, everyone was exhausted, and suddenly, a man in black pointed to a familiar tree road, "This tree, did we pass by just now?" ”

Everyone looked up and nodded suspiciously, "Yes, it seems to have passed more than once." ”

At this moment, everyone looked at each other, and at the same time saw horror in each other's eyes, they wouldn't have encountered a ghost hitting the wall, right? has been going around in one place, and if it goes on like this, let alone finding someone, I'm afraid it's even difficult to get out.

"Commander, this ......"

Chen Zhongqi's face was ugly, he had long wanted to kill Xie Yutang, but now he finally had a chance, but he escaped, it was simply unreasonable.

These people were more or less injured, and after walking in the forest for a long time, they were already too tired to do anything, where did they still want to find someone, they all had the idea of retreating for a while, and looked at Chen Zhongqi expectantly, "Commander, Xie Yutang's tendons and tendons have been broken, he must not live long, even if we don't go to him, he will die." ”

"Even the woman looks scared, let's ...... Do you want to keep looking for someone? ”

Chen Zhongqi had a calm face and snorted unhappily, "How can I explain if I don't find someone to go back?" Find it for me, find it again! ”

Everyone was very reluctant, one person stepped on a branch, gurgled and rolled out of the distance, and the others were unwilling to move, Chen Zhongqi saw the passive and sloppy appearance of everyone, and suddenly became angry, "What do you mean?" If you don't want to find someone so much, do you want to go back and be punished for being incompetent? ”

"No, we can't do anything badly, at least, then Xie Yutang can definitely not live, Commander, let's go back."

One after another, many people nodded in agreement, Chen Zhongqi saw this, and knew that it would be futile to continue, so he could only reprimand him fiercely, and waved his hand, "Okay, go back." ”

The Nine Princes on the tree watched these people leave, pulled the corners of his mouth slightly, and jumped down from the tree lightly.

When he traveled, he learned some formations from a traveling Taoist priest, otherwise he really didn't know how to drag these people.

After confirming that it was safe, the Nine Princes took Xie Yutang and Chi Wan to their hermitage hut.

After a slight examination of the injuries, the Nine Princes went out to arrange the formation, although Chen Zhongqi and his party had left, it was difficult to guarantee that they would not come back.

And Ji Wan also woke up from her coma. She rubbed the back of her aching neck and looked around alarmedly.

Aren't they being hunted down? Why did you come here all of a sudden? By the way, what about Xie Yutang?

Ji Wan looked to the side in a panic, and she didn't breathe a sigh of relief until she saw a familiar figure.

"Are you awake?"

"Who?" The sudden sound made Ji Wan feel a thrill, and she jerked in the direction of the door, and clenched the dagger hidden in her cuff in her hand.

"It's me." A figure came backlit until the gentle face of the Nine Princes was revealed, "Don't move yet, or the wound will crack again." ”

The ninth prince held the medicine bowl and motioned for Chi Wan to drink the medicine.

Chi Wan looked at the Nine Princes blankly, surprise appeared in her eyes, and there was a hint of imperceptible vigilance, "Why are you here?" ”

Although she had carefully concealed her inner vigilance, she was still keenly captured by Jiuwangyuan.

"This is my residence, it's not strange that I appeared here, but how did you and Xie Yutang come here, this place is remote, don't say that you are out for a wild trip." Seeing that Chi Wan didn't accept the medicine bowl, the Nine Princes didn't care, but just casually placed it on the wooden table next to him, "Don't worry, this medicine is good for you." If I wanted to hurt you, with the level of your injuries now, I wouldn't have to do anything at all. ”

The other party's frank and unrestrained appearance made Chi Wan feel a little ashamed, and felt that she was a villain's heart and a gentleman's belly. She coughed awkwardly and ignored the words behind the Ninth Prince, "This matter is a long story. Lord Wang, hurry up and save Yutang, he is seriously injured. ”

At this time, Xie Yutang was still unconscious, and his handsome face vaguely revealed a blue-gray color, which made Chi Wan's heart flutter for a while.

In order to show her trust, Chi Wan took the medicine bowl and drank it all in one gulp, because she drank it too quickly, but she was choked by the medicinal juice, and the violent cough stained her pale cheeks with a touch of crimson.

The Ninth Prince glanced at Chi Wan's blood-stained clothes, and his eyes were very complicated.

"You say he's badly wounded, why don't you? If you don't stop the bleeding in this leg, I'm afraid it will be useless in the future. ”

"If my leg is useless, it will be useless, his life is more important, please, save him!" Chi Wan didn't care about her injury, as if the injured person was not herself, but just begged the Nine Princes to save Xie Yutang.

I don't know why, hearing her say this, a nameless fire suddenly rose in the heart of the Nine Princes, but looking at the other party's pitiful appearance, there was a trace of unbearable feelings.

He sighed faintly, and stepped forward to briefly check their injuries, Chi Wan had been cut by Chen Zhongqi's leg before, although the wound was no longer bleeding, but the wound was relatively deep, and white bones were faintly visible.

An imperceptible trace of distress flashed in the eyes of the Nine Princes, "Wait here, I'll pick some herbs for external application." ”

The terrain here is complicated, coupled with the perennial fog, even if he has lived here for a while before, he is still not very familiar with the terrain, and it has been half an hour since he came back from picking herbs.

But when he returned, Chi Wan and Xie Yutang had disappeared. The empty house shocked him, did Ji Wan not trust him and escaped, or was he taken away by the people who were chasing them?

After thinking about it, Chi Wan was seriously injured, and with an unconscious Xie Yutang, it was more likely that he would be taken away by the people who were being pursued, thinking of this, the Nine Princes suddenly felt anxious.

"Lord, we're here." Suddenly, Chi Wan's little head poked out of the grass.

The Ninth Prince's high heart fell to the ground in an instant, "I thought you were taken away by the enemy, and I thought that I had saved trouble, but I didn't expect you to hide it by yourself." ”

The place where Chi Wan was hiding happened to be facing away from the Nine Princes, so she didn't see his worried look before, and at this moment all her attention was attracted by the herbs in the Nine Princes' hands.

"Lord Wang, hurry up and take a look at Yutang, I feel that his pulse is getting weaker and weaker." Ji Wan said anxiously.

"Hmm!" It may be that the Ninth Prince accidentally touched Xie Yutang's injury, and he let out a painful snort.

Chi Wan was distressed and nervous, and whispered, "You lighten up." ”

"It's already light." The Nine Princes couldn't help but complain in his heart, a big man, he couldn't even help this pain, and at the same time automatically ignored how much strength he used just now.

Next, in the process of taking the medicine, Xie Yutang groaned in pain from time to time, and Chi Wan was shocked when she watched it on the side, but she didn't dare to say anything about the Nine Princes, so she had to keep comforting Xie Yutang softly.

The Nine Princes snorted coldly, and the movements under his hands were a little heavier.

Chi Wan really couldn't stand it anymore, "Lord Wang, why don't I take the medicine." ”

After all, the ninth prince is a man, and his movements may not be as gentle as a girl's.

"You feel so sorry for him?" The Nine Princes couldn't help but ask.

Ji Wan looked up at him, "He's my father-in-law, shouldn't I feel sorry for him?" ”

She said it so naturally, with a hint of surprise, as if wondering why he would ask such an obvious question.

The Ninth Prince turned his head a little unnaturally, "I'll be a little lighter." ”

Chi Wan wanted to speak and stopped, after the Ninth Prince dealt with Xie Yutang's wounds, he turned around to inspect her injuries, and Chi Wan subconsciously retracted her legs.

The hand stretched out by the Nine Princes froze in mid-air, and the atmosphere was a little awkward for a while, although her injury was only on her leg, but after all, there was a difference between men and women, and it seemed that something was wrong for him to come to the medicine.

"That's it...... Don't worry about worldly prejudices. The Ninth Prince took the initiative to break the silence.

"Hmm." Ji Wan was not the kind of person who was conformist, and it was just a subconscious move just now, so she stretched her legs over very calmly.

The Nine Princes took a deep breath, and then slowly treated Chi Wan's wounds.

"Thank you for saving your life." Chi Wan knew that although the killer sent by the King of Chu had left for the time being because of this maze, he would come to the door again sooner or later, and she didn't want to drag down the Nine Princes, so she took the initiative to leave.

The Ninth Prince's gaze stayed on her lap for a moment, and then said lightly, "If you leave now, what's the difference between sending you to death?" Then why did I help you pick herbs just now? ”

Chi Wan was a little embarrassed, so she had to explain, "The identity of the person who chased and killed us is not simple, and I don't want to cause you trouble." ”
