Nanqi came over and pulled her back. "This thing is very dangerous, be careful!"

Shu He raised an eyebrow. How did he know? Was he injured?

"Put your hand out so I can see it."

Nanqi's face flushed red. How did she know? "I wasn't paying attention. I accidentally touched it and it burned me. It's okay. You should let Zhenli take a look."

His hands are rotten!

Upon hearing this, Shu He looked towards the tall figure beside Baili Moqing. He was wearing a half silver mask, covering everything below his nose. However, through his imposing eyes, one could still see that he was incredibly resolute.

He was also looking at Shu He, with a hint of suspicion in his eyes, but it was well hidden and could not be seen unless you looked closely.

"Are you the general of the three passes, Zhenli?" Shu He smiled at him, with a hint of curiosity in his eyes.

She had heard the reputation of the Three Pass General more than once. She was very curious about what kind of person could have such an unstoppable domineering aura.

Why is he wearing a mask? She wants to see what he looks like!

"My name is Zhenli, nice to meet you, Madam He." The man bowed to her, his voice calm and gentle, his words neither hurried nor slow, yet Shu He could hear a hint of confidence and strength in his tone. A faint sense of majesty emanated from him, making people fear his presence from the bottom of their hearts.

I hadn't noticed before, but his hands were wrapped in blood-soaked gauze, showing that he was seriously injured. But his eyebrows and eyes didn't show any pain at all, which showed his inner strength.

Shu He also nodded in return.

"Can I see the general's hand?" Shu He asked kindly.

"No need!"

Shu He was slightly stunned. She was coldly rejected the moment she finished speaking. Looking at the man, who stood tall and proud, like a mountaintop, a hint of embarrassment crossed her face.

How could this person be so cold and indifferent? Even colder than Baili Moqing.

"Zhen Li."

Baili Moqing said two words lightly, and the man with a straight back instantly bent over. "Your Highness."

"Let her show you."

"Yes."

As soon as the words fell, Shu He saw the man immediately stretch out his hands in front of her. This attitude, don't treat me too differently!

Shu He looked at him in a daze.

He seemed to have realized the problem with his attitude, and then he lowered his eyebrows and said in a slightly softer tone, "Thank you, Madam He."

Shu He was speechless. The gap between people was indeed obvious! "Sit down!"

He didn't want to at first, after all, they were not qualified to sit together in front of Baili Moqing.

Shu He stared at him for a long time before asking the stubborn Zhen Li to sit down. He was willing to stand, but she was not.

The gauze was untied, and the burnt rotten flesh stuck to the hard gauze. As the gauze was untied, a piece of flesh and blood, along with the yellow blood, instantly flowed down.

Shu He felt his eyes trembling uncontrollably as he watched. How could this hand be so rotten?

There was a brown-yellow powdery substance stuck to the wound, with a pungent smell of Lanqi medicine. It was a medicine for treating common external injuries, but it was useless for the burns caused by the Earth Bud Root.

Moreover, judging from the wound, he must have been traveling continuously for several days without even changing the medicine, which caused the wound to rot.

Shu He raised his head and looked at the man. He was indeed a tough guy. Even though his flesh and blood were torn off, he didn't even blink, as if he didn't feel any pain!

Her fingers rested on his wrist, and the feeling of his pulse made her expression serious. "General, have you not felt any discomfort these past two days?"

Zhenli's drooping eyes suddenly lifted up, and there was a hint of surprise hidden in his deep and calm gaze.

"I do feel hot all over sometimes, as if I'm on fire." But fortunately, he can still accept it.

Shu He showed a trace of guilt on his face, "The fire poison has invaded the meridians..."

"What?" Nan Qi frowned and approached. "What kind of fire poison? Is it serious?"

"This is my fault." Shu He threw the gauze he had taken off his hand onto the table beside him, feeling a little annoyed with himself. "I should have made it clear when I asked you to go find this Earth Core Root."

"This Earth Bud Root is an extremely fierce fire-attributed herb. I've seen descriptions in books that it's extremely difficult to find. The books also mention its strong fire properties and that protective gear is required when harvesting it. But I didn't expect its fire properties to be so fierce. If it enters the human body and isn't expelled in time, it will form a fire poison that will invade the body's meridians."

Fortunately, Zhenli arrived in time, otherwise, removing the fire poison would be another big trouble!

"Will it cause great harm to your body?" Nanqi asked worriedly again.

Shu He glanced at him, his eyes flickering slightly. "I've never seen such a fire poison, but I imagine that if it penetrates deep into the bone marrow, it will be no less severe than your master's cold poison."

"Ah!" Nanqi was so frightened that his face turned pale. "Why is it so serious?"

"Are you exaggerating a little, Madam He? Apart from the occasional burning sensation in my body, I don't feel anything wrong." Zhen Li withdrew his hand, and a hint of contempt flashed between his eyebrows revealed outside the mask.

Shu He laughed angrily, "General, are you doubting me?"

"How about, General, you and Nanqi face off in a palm strike? You don't need to use 100% of your internal strength, just 50% will do. Let's see if you can still unleash your original power!"

Nanqi curled his lips and secretly complained to Shu He: How dare you say that! Taking in ten points of Zhenli's internal energy? If he really took it, he might not even see the sun tomorrow!

Five points, I can take it.

"I know my own body. There's no need for me to do this pointless test." Zhen Li refused.

Nanqi frowned. He knew that Zhenli still didn't believe in the woman's medical skills, so he rejected her so much.

"Zhenli, since Madam He said that, she must have her reasons. Even if you don't believe her, you should trust us, right?" Beiji walked over and placed her slender fingers on his shoulder. "Why not give it a try? Just think of it as testing Nanqi's skills."

"Okay!" Nanqi was eager to try, with a bit of excitement on his face. He hadn't fought with Zhenli for a long time, and he didn't know if he could really withstand 50% of his internal force! "Brother Li, come on."

Seeing this, Zhenli looked at Baili Moqing, as if asking for his opinion.

Shu He's confident look also piqued Baili Moqing's interest. He raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Let's give it a try."

"Yes." Zhenli agreed and stood up to face Nanqi.

Nan Qi was so excited that he threw the cloak in his hand casually and threw it directly on Shu He's head, covering her completely.

He stretched his shoulders, rubbed his hands together, and prepared to test his strength.

At this moment, an angry gaze fell on his face. He wanted to ignore it, but was suddenly kicked hard in the knee.

He was furious, and all the momentum he had prepared was gone. He looked at the woman angrily, "What are you doing?!"

Shu He glared at him unhappily, then said to Zhen Li, "To ensure the reliability of the test, General Zhen Li, you'd better use your full internal strength!"

Nanqi's face froze and he looked speechless.

Is this woman seeking revenge for personal gain?

Beiji stepped forward, took off Shuhe's cloak, and glanced at Nanqi silently.

Seeing that Nanqi and Beiji were so intimate and gentle towards the woman, Zhenli showed some doubts between his brows.

The rebellious Nanqi and the steady and introverted Beiji were both friendly and harmonious with the woman, and even the prince treated her differently!

What magic does she have?

The two men were ready, and then they struck each other with a fierce palm.
