"They are now near the spring in the middle of the forest and have temporarily escaped their pursuers."

"OK."

Just like Seth and the others didn't ask Allen about his secret, Allen didn't ask why Seth knew about Yaying's current situation. He nodded clearly and immediately set off for the forest behind the mountain.

Unlike Seth, Allen knew the message hidden in the whistle.

This is the whistle for emergency gathering, which is usually blown by mercenaries when they gather scattered teammates. But there were no mercenaries or mercenary unions in this village, so as soon as the whistle sounded, Allen imagined the worst case scenario.

Fortunately, Seth told him the current situation, otherwise he would have thought that the mercenaries would come in groups to assassinate the village chief Pat.

After entering the forest, Allen's sharp eyes saw several dangerous traps, several of which had been triggered. A few drops of blood were dripping on the ground, and some were stained on the trees.

Seeing that the blood had dried, Allen judged that it was not Yaying's blood, but Hill's.

"I haven't seen this kind of trap for a long time..."

Allen looked around at the hidden traps around him, sighed and murmured to himself.

He came to one of the trap trigger points and fiddled with something lightly. After a while, Allen lowered his head and observed the footprints, then chose one of the footprints and followed it.

I don't know how he did it, but he actually found Hill and Yaying accurately among the messy footprints, and found the cave where the two were hiding in a calm and calm way.

"Yaying, are you in there?"

Seemingly hearing something, Allen asked in front of the cave.

Hearing this, Yaying, who originally thought the pursuers were planning to kill him, was slightly startled and ran out quickly.

"Brother Allen? Why are you here??"

"I came out to gather herbs and found your handkerchief."

Allen shook the light blue women's handkerchief in his hand and smiled gently.

"Ah! Didn't I wear it? When did I lose it?"

Yaying looked at the handkerchief in disbelief, and quickly took out her pocket bag, only to find that there was no handkerchief.

He probably lost it when he put it in his pocket after wiping his hands after drinking water. Fortunately, it was Allen who was found. If they were pursued by soldiers, they would definitely be in trouble.

"I was chased just now, but I didn't find it. Fortunately, Brother Allen picked it up first... No, Brother Allen didn't see anyone suspicious??"

"No."

Allen shook his head and handed over the handkerchief.

This was true, he didn't see those mercenaries at all along the way. I don’t know where the group of people went after them, but I didn’t even see their shadow.

Yaying breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Allen indeed had no trace of fighting.

"Okay, okay, fortunately Brother Allen didn't meet that group of people, otherwise I wouldn't dare imagine what happened."

"........."

Fortunately, we didn't encounter that group of people... Well... I should say that the group of mercenaries were lucky that they didn't encounter him, right?

Allen smiled gently and did not refute Yaying's words, but felt a little regretful in his heart. If he saw that group of mercenaries, he could easily get rid of a few of them, and he would be able to run away much more easily.

"By the way, where's Hill?"

"Inside! Brother Allen, you came just in time. He passed out and had a fever after he got here."

This cave is not the kind of cave where animals live, but more like some kind of passage.

Yaying placed Hill behind a rock. Although Hill had a fever, she did not light a fire to keep warm. There was no other way, there were still pursuers behind her, and she knew she could only give in at this time.

Allen knelt down to check Hill's condition, exhaled softly and said.

"It's a fever caused by wound infection. I'll clean his wound later. As for the drowsiness, it's probably because he's too tired."

After speaking, Allen dug out a few herbs that he had picked specially and began to grind them into concoction.

"What kind of herb is this?"

"It is an herb that treats trauma. Adding these three herbs can help people recover from wounds faster."

After a pause, Allen glanced at Yaying and defended in a low voice.

"If a normal herbalist sees the herbs mixed and ground into a concoction like this, they will never be able to tell what the herbs are."

Yaying was stunned when she heard this, and it took her a few seconds to realize that he was accusing her and Linda of talking nonsense in front of the village chief, and she burst out laughing.

"Pfft! I said that on purpose. And compared to me, Linda is the real bad guy. Brother Allen certainly didn't know that she was laughing so hard after returning to the room! She knew she was talking nonsense and still acted like that He is so serious that even the village chief who deceived him believed it!"

Allen could imagine how proudly the two girls laughed afterward, and he couldn't help but laugh too.

She didn't know what was going on, but after seeing Allen, Yaying suddenly felt a sense of security and couldn't help but relax.

After a while, while Allen was bandaging Hill's wounds, Yaying told him everything she knew, including the fact that Hill was actually a mercenary.

"Sure enough, Seth's intuition was right. He told me yesterday that Hill's identity was suspicious."

"How did Brother Seth tell that?"

Yaying was surprised when she heard Allen's words. She remembered that Seth met Hill for the first time last night. Can Hill's disguise be seen through just one look? is it possible?

Seeing Yaying's surprise and admiration for Seth, Allen thought for a while and swallowed what Seth said at the time, "Common sense makes Hill suspicious!" ’.

"Site must have seen something. So if you encounter anything in the future, you must discuss it with him first and don't act impulsively."

Allen persuaded Yaying like a child, and the latter nodded obediently.

The two people who were still chatting in a low voice suddenly fell silent and quietly hid behind the rocks.

After a few minutes, there were a few footsteps outside the originally quiet cave, and soon five figures walked into the cave, it was Grant and the others.

"It turns out there is a cave here, let's go in and look for it."

"Is this cave a bit deep? If they want to hide, they should hide in the depths."

"Where's the lighting?"

"it's here!"

After preparing all the necessary preparations, Grant and the other five walked into the cave. However, they immediately discovered the rock not far from the entrance, where Yaying and the others were hiding.

"I gonna go see."

When one of the mercenaries saw it, they wanted to check it out, because they never thought that Hill and Yaying would hide in such an easy to find place.

Yaying, who was hiding behind the rock, gently held the hilt of the sword, planning to kill one of the mercenaries with thunderous force when they got close.

However, at this moment, Allen gently put his hand on Yaying's wrist, looked at her confused eyes and threw a few pebbles deep into the cave.

The sound of slight movement was particularly clear in the quiet cave, instantly diverting the mercenaries' attention.

"It's indeed inside! Let's chase!"

"That's where the noise was supposed to be!"

The mercenaries almost instantly determined where the noise was coming from, and the five of them ran deeper into the cave.
