Along the way, Ren Xiaosu had speculated that if anyone in the group was most likely to be a supernatural being, it would definitely be Yang Xiaojin.
But to his surprise, it turned out that Xu Xianchu was the one hiding the most.
Regarding Yang Xiaojin, Ren Xiaosu at least knew a little about her and knew that she was actually a dangerous person. As for Xu Xianchu, Ren Xiaosu had not paid much attention to him.
However, this was also because Xu Xianchu's superpower made it easy for him to conceal himself. Although the gray shadow was extremely strong, Xu Xianchu was just a normal soldier, so Ren Xiaosu had no way of judging him.
Unfortunately, it would have been great if he had a Master Skill Duplication Scroll. Otherwise, he could have used it on Xu Xianchu immediately!
If he were really lucky enough to copy Xu Xianchu's skill, Ren Xiaosu would have more trump cards to play along the way.
But even though the palace had been open for so long, Ren Xiaosu had never seen a Master Skill Duplication Scroll before. It was probably very difficult to obtain.
Xu Xianchu sighed and said, "I just want to get everyone out of here. I don't want to hurt anyone."
Ren Xiaosu was watching from the side. He could not tell if Xu Xianchu was being sincere.
Actually, he did not have any ill feelings toward Xu Xianchu. When Liu Bu and the others tried to isolate him, Xu Xianchu did not stick around with them. Of course, Ren Xiaosu did not have a good impression of him either.
If the soldier who was arguing had not tried to draw his gun, Xu Xianchu would probably not have made a move.
Ren Xiaosu turned to look at Yang Xiaojin and realized that Yang Xiaojin had regained her composure. It was as though she was not interested in supernatural beings at all.
"Aren't you curious?" Ren Xiaosu asked.
"I'm curious," Yang Xiaojin said calmly.
Ren Xiaosu was speechless. Wasn't this curiosity a little too perfunctory?
Suddenly, Xu Xianchu looked at Ren Xiaosu. "Aren't you a doctor? Take a look at their injuries. Before I came, Wang Congyang told me about your situation. You don't have to pretend anymore."
"Oh." Ren Xiaosu patted his butt and stood up. He walked up to the soldier who was wounded and squatted down. He turned to Xu Xianchu and said, "But there's no medicine in the wilderness. His injuries are quite serious, right?"
At this time, the soldier asked with a pale face, "How long do I have to live?"
Ren Xiaosu thought for a moment. "10 …"
"Ten minutes?" The soldier was stunned.
Ren Xiaosu looked at him seriously. "9 … 8 … 7 …"
The soldier: "???"
"I avoided the vital parts and internal organs, so don't scare him." Xu Xianchu said, "I heard from Wang Congyang that you have medicine that's very effective for treating wounds. I don't believe you didn't bring it with you when you came into the wilderness."
Ren Xiaosu said unhappily, "That medicine of mine is very expensive. Are you going to pay for it? I'm your guide, not your accompanying doctor. If you want to be an accompanying doctor, that's fine too, but you'll have to pay more. "
Surprisingly, Ren Xiaosu really did have two small porcelain bottles filled with the black medicine on him.
Xu Xianchu was taken aback. "I lost my money along the way."
He turned his gaze to the others and wanted to ask them to pool their money together to save their teammate's life first. Actually, Xu Xianchu really did not intend to kill anyone. He was just hoping to intimidate the others.
However, everyone around them turned their gazes away and were unwilling to help, especially Luo Xinyu. This injured soldier had been looking at her with ill intentions just a while ago.
Seeing that no one was willing to fork out their money, Ren Xiaosu wanted to say that they should just forget about it. But at this moment, a weak voice came from the ground next to Ren Xiaosu. "I brought money …"
Ren Xiaosu thought to himself, 'You sure have a strong desire to live.'
He asked, "Where do you keep the money? Is it in the left pocket or the right pocket? I'm telling you, I don't know how to suture. Whether the wound can heal after applying the medicine will all depend on God's will. "
The others were stunned. How could he just apply the medicine and not suture the wound? Luo Xinyu said, "I have a sewing kit here, but I'm afraid of blood."
"Let me do the suture," Xu Xianchu said.
At this moment, Ren Xiaosu had already taken out a pile of money from the soldier's pocket. "I won't overcharge you. Just 1,200 yuan."
"Alright." The soldier was in a much better mood when he realized that he would not have to die. He said to Ren Xiaosu, "Thank you."
"Gratitude received from Wng Lei, + 1!"
Ren Xiaosu's eyes lit up. His gratitude tokens were moving again. After Wng Lei thanked him, it had finally reached 77 tokens, and he was one step closer to unlocking his weapon.
The atmosphere at the campsite eased up a little. On one hand, Ren Xiaosu's jesting made the atmosphere less tense. On the other hand, everyone realized that although Xu Xianchu had injured someone and acted decisively, he was not really a ruthless and cruel person.
If Xu Xianchu was a ruthless person, everyone would have to be more careful. After all, it was still very dangerous to have such a supernatural being around them.
Xu Xianchu said as he sutured the soldier's wound, "I don't have to hide it from y 'all anymore. The stronghold has only discovered that there should be a Pre-Cataclysm civilization ruins in the Jing Mountains. They only sent the private troops here to map and map out the routes so that it would be easier for the rest of the troops to come and explore. In fact, we didn't know what was going on here before we got here.
"After I got here, I realized there was something wrong with the Jing Mountains. I wondered if the secret of the Jing Mountains could also make wild beasts evolve, so I wondered if this secret would also be useful to humans and supernatural beings like us. That's why I insisted on continuing forward."
"Then didn't you say you were going to give up on the mission?" Liu Bu asked.
"At that time, I felt it was too dangerous here. In order to not expose my identity as a supernatural being, I decided to give up. At most, I would just follow the rest of the stronghold's troops here. It would be safer that way," Xu Xianchu answered.
Ren Xiaosu understood now. Xu Xianchu had really thought about giving up on the mission.
Xu Xianchu paused for a moment. "But it's impossible for me to return to the stronghold now. You've all seen how the stronghold treats supernatural beings. If I go back, it won't bode well for me. That's why I'll be exploring deeper into the Jing Mountains. If y 'all want to go to Stronghold 112, we can go our separate ways. I won't stop you."
The depths of the Jing Mountains and Stronghold 112 were in two different directions. One led to the northeast, while the other led to the Northwest. Right now, everyone was faced with two choices. One was for Xu Xianchu to leave the group, and the other was to follow him.
No one in the campsite said anything. It seemed like they were waiting for someone else to make the decision first.
"I'll go with you." Yang Xiaojin said calmly, "It's too dangerous here. The best way to get out of here alive is to follow a supernatural being like you."
Ren Xiaosu recalled that this seemed to be the most Yang Xiaojin had ever spoken before.
But he felt that Yang Xiaojin was not telling the truth. That was because Yang Xiaojin's original target should have been the depths of the Jing Mountains!
At this moment, Ren Xiaosu began to suspect that Yang Xiaojin was also a supernatural being.
