Shi Xiong was very optimistic. Seeing those people leave, he hurriedly ran forward and hoisted the painfully twitching Lei Liushang onto his back. Looking somewhat foolishly at Li Dai, he said, "The ground is cold, I can't let the exalted being get sick. There's a cave just down there, I'll carry him over!" Without waiting for Li Dai to react, he deftly grabbed some sturdy vines and tied Lei Liushang securely to his back so the man wouldn't fall off while he climbed down. He had used this exact method to transport the general earlier.
Hearing this, Li Dai was slightly surprised. There was indeed a hidden cave on that vine-covered cliff; her spiritual sense had already detected it. She had even seen someone inside—a person on the verge of death with an arrow through his heart. Next to his blood-soaked body lay a broken armor, suggesting he must be Zhuzhan, the person the previous group had been searching for. The injured man possessed the unmistakable demeanor of an iron-fisted general, likely the person this big-boned soldier wanted to protect. She simply hadn't expected that after those people fled in panic, the big soldier would reveal the secret cave and even intend to carry Lei Liushang inside to shelter from the rain. She couldn't decide whether to call him overly trusting or simply simple-minded.
Weren't they afraid she and Lei Liushang were in league with those people?
