"You're waiting outside for my signal." Standing in front of the only passage leading to the tomb guarding village, Xia Yanru thought a lot along the way, and finally decided to go to the appointment alone.

"No, it's too dangerous for you to go in alone!" Qi Juan shook his head frantically, what are you kidding, if he really agrees to let Xia Yanru go to the appointment alone, when his own boss comes, won't he tear him alive.

"Too many people make it troublesome." Xia Yanru is stubborn, more people are not necessarily a good thing, and she doesn't want other uncertain factors to affect the development of the incident until she is not sure what the other party wants.

And this decision is not because Xia Yanru herself is too conceited, she kept thinking about it all the way up the mountain, and finally felt that she was going in alone to explore the situation first, and the current situation really didn't need to bring in too many people to make trouble.

"But before I came, the boss told me to follow you every inch to protect me." Qi Juan anxiously persuaded, only hoping to move out Ji Wenlin to make the other party change his mind.

Xia Yanru shook her head slowly, "No need, wait for me outside." ”

For Xia Yanru's stubbornness, it is not the first time that Qi Juan has experienced it, but he has never been so powerless as this time, this feeling of panic and helplessness is really uncomfortable.

In the end, Xia Yanru still went to the tomb guarding village alone, although Qi Juan was unwilling, he could only obediently lie in ambush outside the cave, praying in his heart over and over again that there would be no situation he didn't want to see.

It has been a long time since the last time I came to the Tomb Guarding Village, and during this period, Ying Fengshan occasionally mentioned some things about the Tomb Guarding Village in his telegram to Xia Yanru, but most of the news from Ying Fengshan was heard by those who moved out of the Tomb Guarding Village, and the authenticity of these news could not be verified.

When I got out of the cave, I didn't seem to be much different from the last time I visited, but if I had to, the houses here were much more dilapidated.

Xia Yanru also thought that after helping the villagers solve the Gu before, whether they continued to live here or chose to leave, at least the people who stayed in the village should be able to build this place well, and they didn't expect it to decline like this.

"Miss Xia?" Suddenly, a faint voice came from behind the rubble on one side.

"You Lao?" Xia Yanru felt familiar when she heard this voice, and she didn't think much about it, and walked quickly to the side of the pile of rubble, and sure enough, it was the pale You Lao, the patriarch of the tomb guarding village.

"Ahem, Girl Xia, you, go quickly!" You Lao's voice was full of anxiety and fear.

"What's going on? What about the others? Xia Yanru hurriedly stepped forward to feed him some water, and couldn't help but worry a little about whether the other party could hold it up when she saw that she was in this state.

"A bunch of people who don't know where they came from, and they've all been locked up." You Lao replied.

"What about you?" Xia Yanru was a little inexplicable, since everyone was locked up, why would You Lao be here alone, and he was so embarrassed, the whole person had the illusion of driving the crane west at any time.

"I can't live, Miss Xia, you better go quickly!" You Lao shook his head with a wry smile, lifted his shirt tremblingly, and there was a long and deep wound on his stomach, the blood was already dark, and it could be seen that he had been injured for a long time.

"What's going on?" Xia Yanru was shocked, this wound was very oozing, and she couldn't tell what kind of weapon caused it.

"Fall into the trap, don't delay, let's go!" You Lao didn't think about asking Xia Yanru to help save people, but seeing that she was alone, she had no chance of winning in the face of those people, he was already grateful to Xia Yanru for unwinding the Gu of her clan, and it was impossible to let the other party be in danger again.

Xia Yanru sighed deeply, although it was not clear whether You Lao's injury was a simple accident or was injured by those people, but the reason why the other party became like this must be because he could not be effectively treated.

"You take this pill first, and when you feel strong, leave here, someone will arrange for you at that time, and as for the others, I will find a way to save them." Xia Yanru took out the wound medicine and fed it to You Lao, she didn't know that You Lao was injured at first, so she didn't think about the injury medicine at first.

You Lao was both grateful and ashamed, the burden of saving the clan still fell on Xia Yanru's shoulders after all, he wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say.

Xia Yanru didn't stay any longer, and left some water and dry food for You Lao, and left the pile of rocks, she didn't plan to investigate next, and walked directly towards the central stone house.

Looking at the back of Xia Yanru leaving, You Lao prayed silently, not only praying that Xia Yanru could be safe, but also praying that those clansmen who were caught could escape smoothly.

Here, Xia Yanru didn't stop all the way, and after a while, she came to the front of the stone house, "I'm here, come out!" ”

As Xia Yanru's voice fell, two teams of strong men rushed out from both sides of the stone house in the next second, about dozens of people, and then three more people came out of the stone house after a while, two people in front and one person behind.

Xia Yanru's gaze passed directly through the two people in front of her and threw it on the face of the tall man at the back, most of her face was disfigured, and she looked a little terrifying.

"You, it's Xia Yanru?" Jin Shang's eyes were a little complicated, he had always known Xia Yanru as a person, and he had read a lot of information about her, but it was the first time he had seen a real person.

"Yes." Xia Yanru's face did not change, even if these people were holding weapons against her, they did not make her feel the slightest timidity.

"Do you know Xia Chun?" Jin Shang asked.

Xia Yanru frowned, not understanding why the other party asked, but she really hadn't heard of this name, and shook her head a little hesitantly.

"How old are you?" Jin Shang continued to ask.

"What do you want to say?" Xia Yanru's tone was displeased, "Do you want to say that Xia Chun is my father?" ”

It's no wonder that Xia Yanru asked this question, mainly because Jin Shang asked her if she knew Xia Chun, and asked her how old she was, so it was hard not to let her think about it.

"Hehehe, it's an acute one." Jin Shang suddenly laughed lowly, "You came here alone, aren't you afraid?" ”

"Afraid of what? Are you afraid you'll kill me? Xia Yanru also laughed, she was sure that the other party bothered to attract her not just to kill her, so it made no difference whether she came alone or with a helper.

"Please come in, how about we talk first?" A flash of appreciation flashed in Jin Shang's eyes, and then he whispered a few words to his subordinates on the right, and then directly turned back to the stone house.

Seeing that Jin Shang left without looking back, and the strong men who were still holding weapons to guard against her also retreated, Xia Yanru pursed her lips and followed towards the stone house.

"Sit casually, you should be familiar with this place." At this time, Jin Shang had already sat down, and when he saw Xia Yanru coming in, he couldn't help but hook the corners of his mouth, but it was a pity that his face was really a little terrifying, and this smile gave people a miserable feeling.

The corners of Xia Yanru's mouth twitched slightly, and she almost couldn't help but persuade the other party not to laugh, this is really spicy, but she was afraid of poking the other party's sore feet, so she had to turn her head away.
