"Are you injured?" asked Shen Linfeng eagerly.

With Xiao Ying's martial arts, how could An Lu not be able to hurt him......? He was seriously injured before he came to the Lost Forest?

"Hmm......" Xiao Ying's mouth let out a painful moan. Then, he tugged at the corner of Shen Linfeng's clothes and handed him the embroidered bag in his hand.

"Antidote, Wen Jing!"

Shen Linfeng suddenly understood, and he hurriedly stood up and ran to the place where Wen Jing was.

Evening.

The battle between the guards of Huashan City and the men in black has also ended. When Shen Linfeng was out of the city, Huazhilin personally ordered fifty elites for him, and at this time, there were only a dozen people left. And most of them have injuries of varying severity.

As for Zhong Ruida, Tu Fangfang, as well as Li Maocai and Li Zhuang, except for Li Zhuang, who was slightly injured, the other three were fine.

In general, although Shen Linfeng and the others barely won the victory, they also suffered heavy casualties. plus An Lu, who was killed halfway, as well as Xiao Ying and Wen Jing, who have been seriously injured. All of them made Shen Linfeng's confidence in this trip to the forest greatly reduced.

Shen Linfeng decided to rest here for the night. The people also found a spacious place to set up camp, and waited for the next morning to go deeper into the forest.

Xu He commanded everyone with one arm hanging from his hand, although he didn't know martial arts, but in the early morning battle, he was only slightly injured. The reason why this can be done is because of Zhong Ruida's full protection.

Although this Zhong Ruida person is rough and rough, his mind is very delicate. He knew in his heart that any of these people who came out of Huashan City could die, but this Xu He couldn't die. Because, only Xu He knows the terrain and road conditions of the maze forest, only he has entered the maze forest several times, and only he has retreated from the maze several times.

Therefore, in the fierce battle, the shrewd Zhong Ruida's first thought was Xu He's safety. As long as Xu He is alive, then they can continue to move forward, and as long as they can continue to move forward, they will be one step closer to the five thousand taels of gold.

As it turned out, Zhong Ruida's approach was completely correct. Let's not talk about whether it is one step closer to five thousand taels of gold. Let's just talk about these guards who came out of the mountain city. In the hearts of these guards, Xu He can be regarded as their backbone. If Xu He had died, the guards would have already dispersed.

At this time, according to the command of the Lord's heart. Some of the less injured guards were out collecting firewood for warmth. The rest of the people were led by him to set up tents that had been prepared in advance.

A "tent" is actually made of a few simple pieces of wood. Then, cover it with a pre-prepared felt cloth. It's simple, but it's also a way to escape the cold.

As night fell, the evening breeze blowing in the forest was no longer as cold as before.

After Wen Jing took the antidote, her face gradually turned red, and it seemed that there should be no major problem. However, Xiao Ying's situation was very tricky, his face was pale, and a lot of fine sweat oozed from his forehead, and even his breathing was sometimes strong and weak.

Shen Linfeng took off Xiao Ying's unchanged black robe. Immediately after, a black palm print appeared in front of his eyes.

The entire palm print is very clear, especially the edges have been black and purple. However, these are not unusual, what really puzzles Shen Linfeng is that there is a sunflower-shaped mark printed in the center of the palm print.

This mark is neither black nor purple, it is the color of the skin. After all, Shen Linfeng has not been in the rivers and lakes for a long time, let alone seeing this strange mark, even if he has never heard of it.

However, there was a person that immediately came to mind in his mind.

Zhong Ruida!

In the woods, a roaring bonfire made a popping sound from time to time. Immediately afterward, bits and pieces of sparks soar into the sky, often turning into wisps of dust before they even rise into the air.

Xu He sent someone to count the number of people, and with Xiao Ying and Wen Jing, they had a total of twenty people left. But he still selected a few men with less serious injuries and better physiques to take turns on the night.

The night was already deep, and a thick white mist rose from the entire woods because of the humidity. As far as the eye can see, the visibility is less than four or five feet.

Inside the tent.

Zhong Ruida was lying in front of a simple wooden stretcher, and he looked at Xiao Ying lying on it with a look of horror on his face.

"How is it? Do you recognize this technique?" asked Shen Linfeng eagerly.

Zhong Ruida didn't speak, he waved his hand at Shen Linfeng impatiently, signaling him not to ask any more questions.

Zhong Ruida stared at Xiao Ying's chest for half an hour, and even Tu Fangfang, who was watching the excitement on the side, couldn't help but yawn.

"Hey!" Zhong Ruida patted Shen Linfeng, who was sleepy.

"What's wrong? Do you recognize it?"

"Who is this man?"

Shen Linfeng directly rolled his eyes.

"You don't have to know who he is, just tell me who he was hurt by. ”

"Tricky!" Zhong Ruida no longer played tricks.

"What? How could he have been injured by the Trickster?"

"What's all the fuss about? We who walk the rivers and lakes will inevitably provoke enemies. Since there is an enemy, there will naturally be people who will retaliate, and this is exactly what the Trick Gate does. I think your friend must have provoked some kind of ruthless character. ”

Shen Linfeng was still skeptical.

Zhong Ruida saw that he still didn't believe it, so he continued: "There are four demons in the Trick Gate, the Stick Demon, the Palm Demon, the Sword Demon, and the Poison Demon. After speaking, he looked at Shen Linfeng.

"He's obviously been injured by the Palm Demon!"

"Impossible!" Shen Linfeng replied immediately.

"Anyone in the martial arts can be chased and killed by the Trick Gate, but he won't, because ......" Shen Linfeng suddenly stopped talking.

Zhong Ruida and Tu Fangfang both waited for him to reveal the identity of the man.

"Forget it, you guys go back!"

Zhong Ruida didn't care, people didn't say it, and he didn't want to know. Before leaving the door, he turned around and said, "Brother Shen, these two friends of yours are not lightly injured, I think you won't be able to go on the road with us tomorrow." Why don't you take care of them here first, and tomorrow I will lead someone to explore the way first?"

"Whatever you want!" Shen Linfeng waved his hand in disappointment.

Zhong Ruida and Tu Fangfang didn't speak anymore and walked out of the tent directly.

Shen Linfeng looked at Xiao Ying, whose forehead was constantly oozing with sweat, and the palm prints on his chest were still clear, even darker than just now. If Zhong Ruida was telling the truth, Xiao Ying was really injured by the "palm demon" of the trick gate, but he didn't know how to crack the palm of this palm.

Should I use medicine to recuperate, or should I use internal force to heal the injury?

After thinking about it, Shen Linfeng still had no clue. But Xiao Ying's situation could no longer allow him to delay.

Therefore, Shen Linfeng decided to take a risk.
