Chapter 199: Preliminary Suspicions

"Chief, this is Comrade Xia Yanru." After the guards reported Xia Yanru's identity, they went out to make tea.

"Xiao Xia, sit." Yan Hebing was slightly stunned when he saw Xia Yanru at first glance, but he quickly reacted.

"Hello, Chief Yan." Xia Yanru greeted politely.

Yan Hebing smiled kindly, "I've heard Xiao Wu talk about you a long time ago, and when I saw you this time, it was really as good as Xiao Wu's praise." ”

This sudden gentleness made Xia Yanru a little surprised, this person gave her a very stern feeling at first sight, it was the kind that was even colder than Ji Wenlin, and it also had the unique temperament of these soldiers, I didn't expect it to be so kind.

smiled faintly, Xia Yanru was not easy to answer, after all, people were praising her in disguise, and she was not too polite, so she had to deal with it with a smile.

Seeing that Xia Yanru was just smiling, Yan Hebing was not surprised, he had also seen Xia Yanru's investigation, and knew that the little girl's temperament was different from that of ordinary young girls, so he didn't continue these gossips, but began to get straight to the point.

"It's been nearly six days since Xiao Wu and 7 places disappeared, these are the materials we have investigated these days, there are 6 target locations that were initially suspected, 4 have been investigated as of today, and there are still 2 places left that have not been investigated." Yan Hebing said as he handed the information to Xia Yanru.

Xia Yanru took the information and looked at it carefully, and after a while she realized why Wu Weijun had mentioned herself before he disappeared, it turned out that it really had something to do with her.

It turned out that after the fifth elder disappeared, Xia Yanru and the three of them thought of finding someone to go to Hecheng to guard the rabbit, that is, she contacted Wu Weijun to help, told the matter of the old five, and did not hide the information of Tu Yan, so Wu Weijun and Kimchi came to Hecheng because they found some clues about the 'elixir' from this matter.

And the reason why Wu Weijun mentioned asking Xia Yanru to come over was just because he thought that Xia Yanru knew more information, of course, his conjecture was not wrong, at least the ciphertext map in Xia Yanru's hand had indeed not been revealed to Wu Weijun and the two.

After quickly browsing through the information in his hand, which recorded all the whereabouts of Wu Weijun and Kimchi after they came to Hecheng, down to who they had seen and what they had eaten, until the two of them suddenly disappeared, the information became an investigation into the disappearance of these two people.

Xia Yanru thought for a while, and took out the ciphertext map in her hand, "According to the information you investigated, Chief Yan, the Martial Battalion Commander and the Xin Department are probably trapped here. ”

The reason why she thinks so is also based on the information in her hand, the antique dealer mentioned above should be the fifth child, and she is not surprised that the two of them can find the fifth child, but she disappeared the next day after seeing the fifth child, and it is difficult not to doubt the connection between them.

"This is the tomb map?" Yan Hebing took the drawings and looked at them for a while before asking uncertainly.

"Well, I asked the Battalion Commander to help me find a person before, and this map was left by that person, according to what we know, this person is also somewhat involved in the 'elixir', so I think that the Battalion Commander and Xin should have also found this ancient tomb, and may have gone in." Xia Yanru explained.

"Why do you think that?" Yan Hebing asked puzzled.

"The 'elixir' has been looking for something, maybe the battalion commander has investigated the importance of this thing, and maybe they will want to intercept it before the 'elixir'." Xia Yanru told her guess.

"Do you have a way to find this tomb?" When Yan Hebing heard this, he also felt that it was very possible, maybe the matter was urgent, or there was no time to report the temporary change, so Wu Weijun and Kimchi acted directly.

"I can tell the approximate location, but I need equipment." Xia Yanru did not mention manpower, mainly because the experience of going to the tomb twice told her that there are not many people who are expensive, and although the soldiers in the military department are very powerful, they have a specialization in the art industry, and this ancient tomb is different from the battlefield.

"You're going down to the grave to find someone?" Yan Hebing frowned, and brought Xia Yanru over, his original intention was not to let this little girl take risks.

"I wouldn't want to go to the grave if I could, but there doesn't seem to be a better candidate than me." Xia Yanru had forgotten what she promised Ji Wenlin at this time, but she also had selfish intentions in offering to go to the tomb.

According to her investigation and research on the three seedlings of the ancient clan during this time, she found that one of the branches migrated to Yun Province and there was no news again, and combined with the cross-collection of various legends, she found that the origin of the Worship Flame Clan seemed to be related to the three seedlings.

And whether it is the ciphertext map that Lao Wu threw in the guest house, or the bronze slip brought out from the underground palace of the Baiyan clan, it is all directly pointing to the ancient tomb on this side of Hecheng, Xia Yanru thought that the information that could be collected on the surface was basically gone, and now she could only get information from other sources, and this ancient tomb was the best source of information.

"If they really went to this ancient tomb, it would not only be a matter of the military headquarters and the 7th place, but this matter must go through the Bureau of Cultural Relics and Archaeology." Yan Hebing's brows have not relaxed, excavating the ancient tomb is not a trivial matter, if he can't get the relevant procedures, even if his status is not low, it is not easy to make claims.

"Then this matter will trouble Chief Yan, it's best to get the approval procedures as soon as possible, otherwise I'm worried that the life of the Battalion Commander is in danger." Xia Yanru also frowned, she knew that it was so troublesome, she didn't say it was an ancient tomb, how convenient it was to find it directly with the map.

Yan Hebing naturally also took into account the safety of Wu Weijun and Kimchi, these two have been missing for so many days, there has been no news, in case the rescue is really not timely because of these cumbersome procedures, then it is really regretted for a lifetime.

"Don't worry, I'll contact the Cultural Relics and Archaeology Bureau in Hecheng now, and I'm sure they'll cooperate." Yan Hebing assured, thinking that if the Cultural Relics and Archaeology Bureau did not cooperate, he would have to use the military department to exert pressure.

Coming out of Yan Hebing's office, the guards took a group of four people straight to the military department guest house, and after the four people were settled, the guards left.

"Sister Yanru, are we going to live here forever? Do you still want to check the news of the fifth child? As soon as the guards left, the four of them gathered in Xia Yanru's room, and Tu Hongxing couldn't wait to ask.

"Well, during this time, you go to investigate the fifth child, and I will go to cooperate with the work of the military department." Xia Yanru didn't say anything about going to the tomb, because she was afraid that the two of them would follow her to the danger.

"Is it dangerous?" Tu Hongxing asked with concern.

"Not dangerous." Xia Yanru said against her will, she didn't know whether the ancient tomb was dangerous or not, but it was definitely not easy to be hidden with such painstaking efforts, not to mention that it was very likely to be related to the Red Eye King.

It's just that Xia Yanru answered decisively, but Tu Hongxing didn't believe it, the bronze slip that he brought out from the underground palace was translated by him, plus the cipher text map, he knew that there was a very mysterious ancient tomb in Hecheng, thinking of this, he couldn't help but wonder if Xia Yanru's business trip was related to this ancient tomb.
