Chen Jie nodded, and Ni Manzi said, "He is a good doctor."
Then he didn't demur, allowing Chen Jie to lead him through a complicated path until they reached a cave. To call it a cave was a bit of a stretch—it was merely a two-meter-deep hole that was even hard to stand up in, but it was indeed well hidden. Even the locals scarcely knew of it.
After settling Ni Manzi, Chen Jie left behind a water gourd and three coarse flour buns, saying, "Here, Hero, eat these first."
"By the way, let me use your blood-stained outer garment."
Saying this, Chen Jie took the blood-stained garment and hurriedly rushed out.
Since he needed to rescue Ni Manzi, he couldn't afford to abandon the effort midway. As long as Ni Manzi lived, the benefits would be maximized.
Thus, he needed to tidy up the scene a little. On his way here, he had been extremely careful to leave as few traces as possible in the surroundings.
Chen Jie continued to search and found no traces.
