The cave camp.
Rou Si lay on the ground, covered in blood, her spirit weak.
Bee Girl, Ku Ka, and Er Gou surrounded her.
“Rou Si!”
Chen Yu arrived in a hurry.
Seeing the wounds on Rou Si, his face instantly darkened.
The injuries were too severe.
There were deep gashes on her back and abdomen, and blood was still gushing from the abdominal wound.
Judging by Rou Si’s condition, she was on the verge of death.
“Rou Si!”
Chen Yu squatted down and called out softly.
“Who knows medicine?”
“I… I know a little bit,” Bee Girl said, biting her lip. “Shall I try smearing some honey on it?”
“Honey won’t work.”
The little demon from the wristband reappeared.
“There are many insects and ants in the caves. Smearing honey will attract them with its sweetness. Servant, didn’t you get the healing ointment? That should be effective.”
Hearing this, Chen Yu quickly took out the healing ointment.
He applied it to Rou Si’s wounds.
As the little demon had said, the healing ointment was indeed very effective for Rou Si’s injuries. After applying it, Rou Si’s expression relaxed considerably.
Her brows were no longer furrowed in pain.
Chen Yu squatted in front of him, looking at his wounds.
“How could this happen?” Chen Yu murmured softly. The little demon floated in mid-air, propping up its chin with its hand. “Looking at the wounds, they appear to be from blades, and there’s a trace of undead energy.”
“Undead?” Chen Yu frowned.
“Perhaps they inadvertently entered an undead plane, or they encountered an undead mage and summoned skeleton warriors. My former subordinate, the Great Devil, was the most outstanding undead war god, and I wouldn’t mistake it,” the little demon said confidently.
Skeletons, undead.
These things existed in the caves.
This was not important.
What was most important now was the condition of Jack and Black Donkey. Only Rou Si had returned to the camp; their whereabouts and situations were still unknown.
Chen Yu frowned slightly as he looked down at Rou Si.
“Rou Si, Rou Si, wake up!” Chen Yu squatted in front of him and called out softly, “You can’t just sleep like this. What about Jack and Black Donkey?!”
“Boss… Boss…”
As if hearing Chen Yu’s call, Rou Si, lying on the ground and looking extremely weak, opened her eyes.
“Quickly, quickly go save Jack and the others.”
“Where are they!” Chen Yu pressed urgently. Rou Si suddenly struggled to stand up, and her movement pulled at her wounds, causing her expression to change drastically.
Yet, she made no sound, gritting her teeth and standing unsteadily.
“I’ll take you there.”
“Just tell me the location, and I’ll go. You should rest well at the camp,” Chen Yu said with a serious tone.
Rou Si shook her head.
She tilted her head slightly, revealing a heroic smile.
“Boss, I’m a lion, don’t treat me like a kitten. These injuries are nothing,” Rou Si said with a dismissive smile in her eyes. “I’ll lead you!”
Seeing the look in Rou Si’s eyes, Chen Yu didn’t insist further.
He had his own convictions.
Just as he said –
He was a lion!
He also possessed the pride of a king of beasts.
“Bee Girl, Er Gou, Ku Ka, Black Bean, you all stay at the camp. I’ll go with Rou Si,” Chen Yu said, glancing at Bee Girl and the others.
“Boss, I’m going too!”
Ku Ka clutched his golden shovel, his eyes wide.
“Jack and Black Donkey are our brothers. I can’t just stand by and do nothing when they’re in trouble!”
“Boss, I think my strength is indispensable if there’s a fight,” Er Gou said, clenching his fist, his eyes wide open. “Even though I joined late, consider this my pledge of allegiance to the group.”
“I… I can actually fight too,” Bee Girl said, biting her lip.
“No.”
Unexpectedly, Chen Yu did not agree to Ku Ka and the others’ words, although he was touched.
“Your intention is enough. For Jack, Rou Si, and Black Donkey to be so severely injured, it’s clear that place is no safe haven. You three should stay at the camp.” Chen Yu threw another box of healing ointment to Er Gou. “Have Bee Girl and Ku Ka help you apply it to your wounds.”
With that, Chen Yu gave Rou Si a look and walked out of the camp.
Ku Ka and the others stood in the camp.
The camp was recalled!
The moment it was recalled, a black shadow darted out and stood beside Chen Yu.
It was Black Bean, who had remained silent.
“Why did you come out?” Chen Yu frowned. Black Bean looked up and smiled slightly. “Boss, we signed a spirit pact. We’re bound by life and death. We’re partners!”
Looking at Black Bean’s smile, Chen Yu’s heart inexplicably trembled. He bent down and picked up Black Bean, placing him on his shoulder.
“Alright, partner, then my brother and I will go meet these so-called skeleton warriors!”
The halo flickered.
Chen Yu and the others arrived at a rainforest.
As soon as they entered the forest, Chen Yu’s peripheral vision caught sight of a golden treasure chest in the depths of the rainforest.
It was very conspicuous!
It was not covered by any soil or grass.
It was just that the direction was opposite to where they were planning to go.
“Boss, the chest,” Black Bean, a resource pet, was always sensitive to treasure chests. He subtly nudged his head. Chen Yu sighed softly. “Don’t mind it.”
Afterward, Chen Yu didn’t even glance at the chest again.
Black Bean, standing on his shoulder, couldn’t help but be stunned.
The little demon was also taken aback.
They had been with Chen Yu for a long time and knew how much he cherished wealth.
A person who wouldn’t even discard bathwater.
And who would attempt secondary sales.
He…
Now seeing a golden treasure chest and remaining indifferent.
Black Bean, standing on Chen Yu’s shoulder, couldn’t help but reveal a smile.
Boss is a good boss!
The little demon also glanced at Chen Yu, then pouted thoughtfully and sat quietly on Chen Yu’s shoulder without speaking.
Through the cave traversal.
Rou Si, covered in wounds, ran at the front, with Chen Yu closely following behind.
In just over ten minutes,
They had traversed seven or eight caves. If this continued, Chen Yu’s cave exploration invitation letters would be used up.
“Rou Si, how many more cave rooms are there?” Chen Yu asked from behind. “I only have 10 action points per day. If I exceed the limit…”
“We’re almost there.”
Rou Si glanced back. Chen Yu ran for two more caves behind him.
The invitation letters were exhausted.
Along the way, Chen Yu encountered too many resources, but he did not stop at all, his only thought being to reach Jack and Black Donkey as quickly as possible.
“Rou Si!”
“It’s just ahead.”
Rou Si called out softly and finally stopped in front of a human-faced ancient tree.
“It’s here,” Rou Si nodded towards the ancient tree, on which there was a door.
This was a secret realm.
“The burial ground, no wonder!” The little demon frowned. “The bottom has a strong aura of undeath. Servant, going there is definitely not a wise choice.”
“I have no choice!”
Chen Yu glanced sideways, his eyes firm, and kicked open the door of the ancient tree.
“I must go!”
