Chinese food can contain gluten from either the Soy Sauce (made with wheat) or any of the various flours in the noodles or wrappers. (The wrappers themselves have NO soy sauce). Chinese food does not use wheat flour as a thickener.

Egg roll wrappers are typically made with wheat noodle and although relatively low gluten, might not be ideal for those who are sensitive. Spring rolls are usually made from rice

If you have a severe reaction to Gluten or Wheat it is best to ask for a special-prepared dish. Many restaurants will do their best to assist you but you mush be very specific in what you are asking for. MANY restaurants will substitute spring roll wrappers by request. It gives a different texture, lighter and more crispy when deep fried than egg roll wrapper.
