Chapter 527
Jin Shang, who was following secretly, suddenly felt something was wrong, and sharply stopped the people around him. Looking at the suspicious eyes cast by his subordinates, he suddenly thought of the investigation about Xia Yanru. Exactly how far away the hearing range is, but they've probably already been spotted.

Without explaining anything to his subordinates, Jin Shang just gestured to signal to retreat. At the same time, he was also glad that they had no verbal communication other than following them along the way. Perhaps the other party was not sure who was following secretly.

However, Jin Shang was obviously overthinking. Xia Yanru didn't really have abnormal hearing, but just found out from the clues that someone might be following her, but the number of people and the origin of the following cannot be determined yet.

"Miss Xia?" After a long time, seeing that Xia Yanru was still frowning and not doing anything, Qi Juan couldn't help shouting a little strangely.

"It's all right." Xia Yanru waved her hand, and just checked again, it seems that the anomaly she found before has disappeared again, I don't know if she was wrong in her suspicion at the beginning, or because her actions let the other party know that she has been found to be being followed.

"Huh?" Qi Juan looked over in confusion, not understanding what the phrase "It's all right" refers to.

"The follower should have left." Xia Yanru replied lightly.

Qi Juan realized it, didn't doubt it, and turned back to check around not far away very seriously. He knew that Xia Yanru was very capable, and he had also heard that this girl Xia had a very different sense of hearing from ordinary people, so from Xia Yanru When he first gave him hints with his eyes, he firmly believed that Xia Yanru must have heard something.

A crisis of unknown authenticity was temporarily lifted. Xia Yanru led Qi Juan and the other three to continue walking towards the forbidden area. Grave hunters should not dare to leave these marks so openly.

The stone temple in the forbidden area is still there, but it seems that it has suffered a serious damage. The entrance has collapsed, and it is not difficult to see through the gaps that Li Ma's stone statues are scattered here and there.

Xia Yanru couldn't help expressing emotion, she couldn't understand why this place was not protected by the archaeological team, did something bad happen during this period?
It's not surprising that Xia Yanru would have such a guess. In fact, this scene doesn't look like it happened by accident. It's just that it's not the time to explore the whole story. She has to think carefully about where the map might be hidden.

The letter said that as long as she came, she would be able to think of it. Xia Yanru was a little puzzled and began to try her best to guess where it would be, but after thinking about it, she still felt at a loss. There were too many places in her mind, but none of them The place seems to be able to hide things.

Seeing the passing of minutes and seconds, Xia Yanru also became a little anxious, closed her eyes in a depressed mood, and looked around again, but there was still nothing in her eyes that could arouse her impulse to explore.

"Miss Xia, should we go in and have a look?" Qi Juan showed curiosity about the Stone Temple after he came, but because Xia Yanru had been searching outside, it seemed that he had no intention of going in, so he didn't suggest it at first, but then As time passed, he couldn't help but make a proposal.

"Huh?" Xia Yanru turned her head to look at the stone temple, suddenly slapped her head, and her eyes instantly met those scattered stone statues, "Go in!"

I don't know what Xia Yanru suddenly thought of at this time, Qi Juan didn't ask much, but seeing that Xia Yanru agreed to enter the stone temple, he was very happy that his proposal was adopted.

When the group finally cleared a passage, Qi Pan went in to investigate to prevent danger. Fortunately, although the stone temple was dilapidated, it was considered solid and would not collapse suddenly.

"This place seems to have been bombed." Qi Juan analyzed the reason why the stone temple was broken into such a situation while probing.

Xia Yanru didn't answer, these traces really looked like they were blown up with gunpowder, but she couldn't figure out who would be so bored to blow up an already dilapidated stone temple like this, it couldn't be because there was an entrance to the underground palace?
But if it is to protect the entrance of the underground palace, it is not right. Because they touched the mechanism, the entrance here is considered useless, unless it is violently blown up, but for the archaeological team, they must not want to cause too much artificial damage to the underground palace.

Then the only explanation can only be made by someone other than the archaeological team, and this person is most likely Tang Yulou. As for why he did this, there are many reasons, but one of them is probably related to that map.

In these complicated thoughts, Xia Yanru quickly settled on the target. She had thought of many places where the map might be hidden, but this was the only place she hadn't thought of before. But it was also because she ignored this place that she became the most hidden place. possible.

When they came to the stone temple for the first time, they were looking for the mechanism to open the entrance of the underground palace. Xia Yanru remembered that when she saw the stone statue of the red-eyed king, she still had a lot of doubts. It was not until Tu Hongxing explained her doubts and told her about the stone statue of the worshiper. For the Yan clan, the Scarlet Eye King has never been a god they worship, which explains why the mechanism is set on the head.

Right now, Xia Yanru's guess is that the place where the picture is hidden is the head of the Red-Eyed King. There are many reasons, and Xia Yanru thinks all of them are possible, and now she just needs to confirm her guess.

Obviously, Xia Yanru's bold guess was not wrong. When she took out a box from the stone statue's head in surprise, all her guesses were confirmed.

It's just that at this time, a sudden change occurred, and there were a few "swoosh" sounds that pierced through the air. It was because Xia Yanru and the others reacted quickly that they were not successfully attacked, and those short arrows missed one after another.

"Damn it, sure enough someone has been following us." Qi Juan suddenly became angry, not only at the sneak attacker, but also at his own negligence.

"Be careful and dodge." Xia Yanru was a little puzzled as to why the other side didn't use more lethal guns, but this was not the time to be curious about these things, she looked sideways and looked around, calculating the escape route.

When she is not sure about the number of enemies, reckless fighting is never her first choice. If there is a chance to escape safely, she will naturally choose to avoid it.

However, compared to Xia Yanru's evasion strategy, Qi Juan is more inclined to fight recklessly, not to mention seeing that the opponent's weapon is a crossbow, he feels that his side has a chance of winning. Although there are only four of them, except for Xia Yanru, the three of them have two hands There is more than one gun in it.

As if seeing Qi Pan's thoughts, Xia Yanru could only explain, "Fighting hard will only waste time, the most important thing is to bring things back safely."

"I see." Qi Juan also realized that he had seen the wooden box that Xia Yanru took out from a stone statue's head just now, so he also knew that rather than fighting with the other party, it must be to make a fortune in silence, In case of an accident and things were stolen, he should apologize with death.
