Qi Yang just wanted to make a ferocious expression to scare Ling'er, but after hearing this soft call, his expression turned into a daze. He straightened up slowly, feeling embarrassed.
Qi Yang didn't expect to be recognized by Ling'er, still under such circumstances. He was afraid that Ling'er would misunderstand, so he explained incoherently: "Did the girl recognize it? I just..."
"It's really you!" Ling'er sat up excitedly and looked at the man in front of her in disbelief, but the voice on the other side was indeed Brother Qi Yang.
After the surprise, she felt extremely distressed. She asked softly: "Just what?"
Qi Yang explained awkwardly: "I just wanted to scare the girl..."
Ling'er asked in confusion: "Scared me?" Brother Qi Yang's sudden movement did scare her, but why did Brother Qi Yang do this?
"Girl is too bold! She is completely defenseless when facing a member of the Black Lotus Sect." Qi Yang said helplessly.
Only then did Ling'er realize that Brother Qi Yang just wanted to pretend to be a scumbag and scare him. She quickly said: "I know I was wrong, and I will never do it again."
Seeing that Ling'er didn't blame him for being rude, Qi Yang secretly breathed a sigh of relief and covered his wounds as a habit.
Ling'er suddenly thought of Qi Yang's injury and said worriedly: "Brother Qi Yang, you must be seriously injured! Let me take a look."
Qi Yang felt that Ling'er looked at her with distressed eyes, and hurriedly comforted her and said, "It's not serious, it's just a skin injury."
Ling'er didn't believe Qi Yang's words and still insisted on helping him treat his injuries.
Qi Yang raised his hand to stop Ling'er and signaled her with his eyes that someone was approaching.
Qi Yang whispered: "Girl, please call me 'Yu Han'! Don't call me wrong."
Ling'er looked at this unfamiliar face and nodded.

It turned out that Fu Xin was back again. He found that "Yu Han" had not followed, so he came back to see what was wrong.
"Why don't you follow? It's not safe here. No matter if you encounter someone from the Demon Cult or that little thief, you will all be finished." Fu Xin said, lifting "Yu Han" up from the ground.
"Let's go!" Fu Xin said to Ling'er, not understanding why she looked worried.
Qi Yang let Fu Xin support him and walked forward quickly.
Ling'er followed them, looking at Brother Qi Yang's unsteady steps, which didn't look like he was pretending, and felt great pain in his heart.
After catching up with Jiao Jiu and the others, Fu Xin let go of "Yu Han", took out his weapon and joined the search for the mountain.
Seeing that Qi Yang was unsteady, Ling'er was about to step forward to help him when she heard Jiao Jiu shouting: "Search carefully for me! Don't be lazy, find the little thief as soon as possible and go back to rest!"
Ling'er could only watch Qi Yang staggering away with worry.
Jiao Jiu said to Ling'er: "Girl, please pick more herbs and change the medicine for us later."
Ling'er nodded and took the opportunity to ask: "Boss, I can't find anyone after searching so many times. Could he have gone down the mountain?"
Jiao Jiu did not give up, and said: "The whole mountain is sealed, and it is difficult for him to fly even if he has wings."
Then Jiao Jiu shouted to his men: "Brothers, as long as the little thief is still on the mountain, we cannot let him fall into the hands of others. Catching him is a great achievement, let alone Shou Lian Jingren. Even the leader has many rewards."
As soon as Jiao Jiu finished speaking, everyone geared up and took action with great enthusiasm.
Ling'er looked at Qi Yang and saw that he was raising his hand to brush away the cold sweat on his forehead. His wound must be very painful! Ling'er's heart was pounding, and she lowered her head and pretended to collect medicine to hide the tears in her eyes.
After searching the area again and still finding nothing, Jiao Jiu sighed in frustration.
Hong Yi hurriedly offered his advice: "Boss, we only searched the area near the tunnel exit once yesterday and didn't go there again. Do you want to search again?"
"You mean he might go back to that area?" Jiao Jiu asked.
"Yes! As the saying goes, the most dangerous place is the safest place. If we search the mountains like this on the outside, he will have nowhere to escape and will most likely turn back." Hong Yi said.
"It makes sense, then let's search again." Jiao Jiu said.
The group of people headed towards the tunnel exit.
That was originally the place Ling'er wanted to go the most, but now that she has found Brother Qi Yang, it doesn't matter whether she goes there or not. She only hoped that Jiao Jiu could let everyone stop and rest soon so that she could treat Brother Qi Yang's wounds.
Qi Yang was still walking at the end of the team, but Ling'er noticed his changes.
Before Ling'er recognized him, he never concealed his injury. He covered the injury with his hands and walked hard. But now, he no longer covers the wound with his hands. Except that he walks a little slower and his steps are a little unsteady, he is no different from other people, as if his injury suddenly healed.
Ling'er knew that he was worried about herself. But when he was like this, Ling'er only felt more distressed!
Unable to bear to look at Qi Yang's disguise, Ling'er quickly walked to the front of the team.
There was a steep slope in front of him, which was more bumpy than the flat road before. Ling'er was worried about Qi Yang's injury, but tried his best not to turn back.

Ling'er looked at the tunnel's exit and slowly approached.
"Girl, there's no need to look. It rained all day yesterday and all the blood and footprints were washed away." Jiao Jiu said helplessly, "Brothers, search the surrounding area carefully."
Ling'er couldn't help but ask: "Where does this tunnel lead to?"
"Why are you asking this?" Jiao Jiu asked without answering.
"Will the person you are looking for return to the other side from this tunnel?" Ling'er said.
"How is that possible? Our Shou Lian Jing people are waiting for him at the other end of the tunnel with a dragnet!" Jiao Jiu said.
"Really?" Ling'er asked again.
Jiao Jiu was not so sure after being asked this question by Ling'er. With no way to escape, this was indeed a possibility.
"Then why don't we follow this tunnel to look for it?" Ling'er said.
"That's right. Hong Yi, take the two of you to climb in and have a look." Jiao Jiu said to Hong Yi.
"Me?" Hong Yi pointed at himself and said hesitantly: "Boss, you also said that there is a dragnet over there, but I don't dare to go there."
"What's there to be afraid of? The other end is just a trap set up by Shou Lian Jing. As long as you don't force your way in, there's no danger." Jiao Jiu said.
"Boss, let Yu Han go! He is brave." Hong Yi said.
Ling'er was shocked. She just wanted to delay time and let Brother Qi Yang take a rest, but she didn't want Brother Qi Yang to crawl through this tunnel with injuries again.
"Yu Han, do you dare to go?" Jiao Jiu turned around and asked "Yu Han".
Fu Xin immediately stood up and spoke for "Yu Han": "Boss, he was hurt so badly..."
"Then you go with him?" Jiao Jiu asked displeasedly.
Fu Xin shook his head nervously, not daring to say anything more.
"Then let Yu Han go by himself. Maybe the little thief is really hiding in this tunnel." Jiao Jiu said.
"Yes! This tunnel is really a good hiding place." Hong Yi hurriedly agreed.
Qi Yang didn't refuse. He walked to the tunnel exit, bent down, knelt on the ground, and crawled into the tunnel.
Ling'er felt anxious and said, "I also want to go in and have a look."
"What's there to see? Besides, if the little thief is really inside, he will die if he goes in. We are still waiting for you to change our dressing!" Jiao Jiu said.
"You knew the danger and still let your brothers in?" Ling'er thought to himself, but said: "I'm not from your Black Lotus God Sect. Why would the person you are looking for kill me? And that Yu Han was injured like that , what if... you die of exhaustion on the way, or are killed by the person you are looking for, how long will you wait here?"
"Boss, this girl is right!" Hong Yi said.
Jiao Jiu thought about it and said to Ling'er, "Then you go too!"
"What about us?" someone asked.
"Let the others search nearby," Jiao Jiu said.
After receiving the promise, Ling'er couldn't wait to crawl into the tunnel.
