The yellow-bellied chicken was startled by the sudden attack and started cackling, struggling to escape Yang Jin's grasp.

Yang Jin would not let it run away so easily. He held the yellow-bellied chicken down with force, then pulled out a short knife from his storage bag and quickly cut the chicken's neck.

The yellow-bellied chicken suddenly lost the strength to resist and collapsed in Yang Jin's hands.

After Yang Jin processed the yellow-bellied chicken, he carried it back to the cave.

Yang Jin started a fire at the entrance of the cave and then took out some ingredients from the storage bag.

He cleaned the ingredients, put them into the pot and started to stew. After a while, a fragrance filled the entire cave.

Shen Yan smelled the fragrance and slowly opened his eyes. He saw Yang Jin concentrating on cooking food, and a warm feeling surged in his heart.

He knew how lucky he was to meet "him" and fall in love with him.

"Ajin, what are you cooking? It smells so good." Shen Yan asked softly.

Yang Jin turned around and smiled brightly, "Brother Shen, I'm making chicken soup for you. I've added some nourishing herbs to it, which will help you recover from your injuries."

"Thank you for your hard work, Jin..." Shen Yan tried to hold back the discomfort in his body and propped himself up with his hands. But as soon as he moved, he felt a sharp pain in his chest, which made him gasp. It seemed that the effect of the painkillers was slowly wearing off.

Seeing this, Yang Jin was startled and stepped forward quickly. He stretched out his hand to support Shen Yan and asked with concern: "Brother Shen, how are you? Are you feeling okay? Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?"

Shen Yan gritted his teeth, forced a smile on his face, shook his head and said, "I'm fine, don't worry." However, before he finished his words, he secretly swallowed the blood that was rising up his throat.

He knew in his heart that the injuries he suffered this time were serious, especially the internal injuries which were the most serious.

In fact, the burns on his arms were not the most fatal injuries. At that time, he was fighting the two-headed lion with all his strength and was accidentally hit in the vitals by its fierce attack, causing serious damage to his internal organs.

Originally, Xiao San had wanted to spend his points to buy medicine to treat internal injuries, but he rejected the suggestion.

Because he vaguely remembered that the original text mentioned that there was a pool of magical natural medicinal spring hidden dozens of miles away from the two-headed lion cave. It is said that this spring water has excellent curative effect on healing internal injuries.

Although there were terrifying blood-sucking bees in that area, fortunately, he had a secret medicine that could control these poisonous insects.

In this way, that place actually serves as a natural barrier for them.

Yang Jin helped Shen Yan lean against the wall before scooping a bowl of chicken soup from the pot.

Yang Jin carefully brought the chicken soup to Shen Yan and said softly, "Brother Shen, drink some chicken soup to warm your body and replenish your energy."

Shen Yan looked at Yang Jin gratefully and wanted to take the bowl, but was rejected by Yang Jin. "Brother Shen, your hands are injured. Let me feed you!"

Shen Yan looked at him and nodded.

Yang Jin carefully fed Shen Yan spoonful by spoonful, blowing each mouthful just right to ensure that Shen Yan would not be burned. Shen Yan looked at Yang Jin's focused eyes, and his heart was filled with warmth.

After drinking the chicken soup, Shen Yan's spirits improved significantly. Yang Jin heaved a sigh of relief when he saw this.

"Ajin, thank you." Shen Yan thanked sincerely.

"Brother Shen, there's no need for us to be so polite." Yang Jin said with a smile, "How do you feel now? Are you still feeling uncomfortable?"

Shen Yan shook his head. "I'm much better now. Ah Jin, you really don't have to worry."

Yang Jin knew that Shen Yan was comforting him, but he didn't say anything more. He understood that the most important thing now was to let Shen Yan have a good rest and recover from his injuries as soon as possible.

In the next few days, Yang Jin took good care of Shen Yan.

On this day, Shen Yan's body recovered a lot. After he stood up and stretched his muscles, he looked at Yang Jin and said seriously: "Ah Jin, I want to discuss something with you."

Yang Jin nodded and looked at Shen Yan gently, "Brother Shen, go ahead and talk. I'm listening."

Shen Yan took a deep breath and said slowly: "I saw on the map that there is a natural medicinal spring not far from this cave. It is said that the spring water there is very effective in healing internal injuries. I think if my injuries can be treated there, I may be able to recover faster."

After hearing this, Yang Jin's eyes flashed with surprise, "Brother Shen, can that medicinal spring really heal your internal injuries?..."

Before Yang Jin finished speaking, Shen Yan nodded and said affirmatively: "Yes, I have seen relevant records in an ancient book. The medicinal spring is said to be made up of a variety of rare medicinal herbs and has miraculous curative effects. I think if we can find it, my injuries may heal faster."

After hearing this, Yang Jin was both excited and worried. Shen Yan's internal injuries had been a hidden worry in his heart for the past few days. If he could find the medicinal spring, it would undoubtedly be of great help to Shen Yan's recovery.

However, he also knew that the road ahead was full of unknowns and dangers.

"Brother Shen, when do we set off?" Yang Jin asked.

Shen Yan looked at the sky outside the cave, thought for a moment and said, "I think we'd better set off now. In this way, we can reach the medicinal spring before dark."

After hearing this, Yang Jin didn't say much, but just nodded silently.

He knew that Shen Yan's decision was well-considered, and he just needed to give his full support.

Afterwards, after Yang Jin prepared the necessary items, the two of them set out on the journey to the medicinal spring.

The two of them had been traveling for most of the day. Shen Yan's face was pale at the moment, and he felt a sharp pain in his chest for a while. He could no longer suppress the sweet taste in his mouth and vomited it out.

He wiped the blood from the corner of his lips with his left hand. It seemed that he was still a little reluctant.

Seeing this, Yang Jin's heart tightened immediately. He hurried forward to support Shen Yan and asked worriedly, "Brother Shen, what's wrong with you? Is your injury recurring?"

Shen Yan shook his head and tried to keep himself calm. "Ajin, I'm fine. I was just a little anxious on the way. I just need to rest for a while."

Yang Jin knew that Shen Yan was just holding on, but he didn't say much. He just silently helped Shen Yan sit under a big tree nearby so that he could have a good rest.

After a while, Shen Yan's breathing gradually stabilized. He looked at Yang Jin and said, "Ah Jin, let's keep going, otherwise we won't be able to reach that place before dark."

Yang Jin nodded. The mountains were extremely dangerous at night, so they had to set off early.

He squatted down in front of Shen Yan and said, "Brother Shen, let me carry you."
