Chapter 122: Destroying the Temple
"Don't worry about why I'm here now, saving Miss Sun is the most important thing!" Lin Baoer was too lazy to respond to him, and wanted to run with her short legs, but after just two steps, the neck of her destiny was firmly grasped by someone.
Qin Huyuan glanced at her, sighed in his heart, and whispered, "Fourth Miss, I'm sorry."
After that, he hugged Lin Baoer into his arms, and then ran after her with his long legs.
Lin Baoer was naturally happy to have someone run for her, so she just lay in Qin Huyuan's arms and looked around.
[In this case, if someone is sent to capture Sun Xier, if the Sun family cannot produce evidence, it will be the last straw that breaks the camel's back, enough to make Sun Zi do some irrational things to accelerate the demise of the Sun family. 】
【But who would do such a thing? 】
【The third prince? Or that side branch of the Sun family? 】
Lin Baoer racked her brains but couldn't figure it out. It seemed that she had to wait until Sun Xier found it.
Hopefully in time.
On the way from the Dali Temple to the outside of the city, there was a small path that passed through the ruined temple. It was very close and could save half an hour compared to the main road, so they were walking on this road.
Since it was a small path, there were a lot of dead branches and weeds. Even though Qin Huyuan was walking at the back with Lin Baoer in his arms, he couldn't help but devote some energy to removing the dead branches and bushes that blocked his view to prevent Lin Baoer from getting stabbed.
But even so, they were left far behind.
"Guardian Qin, how long will it take to get there?" Lin Baoer shrank her neck, not daring to stick her head out, lest she be poked by the dead branches.
She had never walked this road before, so she didn't know how long it would take.
Moreover, it was getting darker, and if she delayed any longer, the visibility would probably be even lower, and she wouldn't be able to see anything clearly.
"It will take about an incense stick of time to get to the ruined temple." Guardian Qin whispered, moving his feet non-stop, and in a moment he crossed a big pit, then ran forward with her in his arms.
After a while, Lin Baoer saw the ruined temple he was talking about. It is not
entirely true that it is a ruined temple
. From a distance, the building in front of the temple is still intact, but the overgrown weeds and the long period of neglect have caused the temple hall to be a little gray. The overall appearance is similar to the City God Temple she has seen in modern times. However, she does not know whether this is the City God Temple.
Just as they were about to pass it, Qin Huyuan suddenly paused, and then his eyes shot sharply into the ruined temple.
"What's wrong?" Lin Baoer wondered.
Qin Huyuan hugged her tightly and half squatted down, quietly moved to the side of the ruined temple, raised his ears and listened quietly.
Knowing that it was not appropriate to disturb at this moment, Lin Baoer did not speak again, but listened carefully to the movements in the ruined temple like him.
The whistling of the wind, the chirping of insects, and the soft calls of some animals.
Apart from these, there were no other unusual sounds.
Guardian Qin also frowned, thinking that he had heard it wrong.
"It's okay, let's go." He whispered.
"Wait!"
Lin Baoer stopped him.
Without time to explain to him first, Lin Baoer kept asking the system for confirmation in her mind.
"Are you sure you heard it?"
System: "Of course, I can feel sound waves that you can't hear from a distance."
Lin Baoer was suspicious: "Then why didn't you use this trick before?"
System: "It can only identify sound waves, not find people."
So the things that happened in the past did not use this ability at all.
Seeing this, Lin Baoer reluctantly believed it.
"What's wrong, Fourth Miss?"
This time it was Guardian Qin who asked her.
Lin Baoer calmed down and pretended to be scared, "I seem to hear someone talking inside!"
"Someone talking?" Qin Huyuan's eyebrows frowned, and he carefully distinguished it again, frowning, "But I didn't hear anything..."
"Yes!" Lin Baoer bit her lip, "I heard it! Qin Huyuan, could it be haunted in this broken temple?"
She regretted it as soon as she finished speaking. What if Qin Huyuan ran away because he was afraid of ghosts?
But she couldn't be sure who was hiding in this broken temple. What if it was a poor and vicious criminal? Or a wanderer with nowhere to go? Or a devout believer in Buddha?
Besides, they have to hurry to find Sun Xier now, and there is no time to waste.
What if they make a mistake?
But she always had a special premonition in her heart, feeling that this broken temple... was not simple.
After hearing her words, Guardian Qin's expression did not change. He did not leave, nor did he go in. Instead, he put Lin Baoer down and said, "Fourth Miss, you stay here first, I'll go in and take a look."
This is also good, so that they can quickly check who is inside, and if Guardian Qin is alone, he can leave quickly if he encounters danger.
Lin Baoer nodded.
After Guardian Qin carefully went in, Lin Baoer squatted on the ground bored.
[I should have brought Xiaoqing with me at that time, so that Xiaoqing could go in and check the situation now. ]
[But Second Brother seems to need Xiaoqing to find someone. ]
Lin Baoer pouted and sighed.
[It would be nice if there were two Xiaoqings.]
[I wonder if Xiaoqing can summon a group of snakes? If so, wouldn't it be more convenient to pass on information in the future?]
Lin Baoer was thinking about it randomly, rubbing her arms again and shivering.
"Why is it so cold..." she muttered.
Before she could get up and move around, she suddenly heard a fight coming from the ruined temple.
"Not good!"
Lin Baoer said to herself and ran in quickly.
She climbed in along the edge of the door with her petite body. As soon as she looked up, she saw several people fighting in the weedy yard in the middle of the ruined temple.
With the help of moonlight, Lin Baoer could barely distinguish that the one who was beaten was Qin Huyuan, and the others...
Lin Baoer's eyes suddenly widened.
She saw the uniform of a soldier on one of them!
Perhaps because he was afraid of being discovered, the man took off his uniform while his companions were holding Qin Huyuan, and then rushed forward with a knife.
Although Qin Huyuan was quite skilled, it was difficult for one person to defeat seven or eight people.
Lin Baoer's eyes turned, and she exchanged a small and exquisite sleeve arrow from the system mall. For some reason, the system also gave her a scope.
Looking at the fancy scope in her hand, Lin Baoer's eyes twitched, and she threw it aside neatly.
She was not playing with a gun, so why did she need a scope!
Just like that, she quietly hid in the corner, trying to aim the sleeve arrow in her hand at the enemy a few meters away.
But since it was her first time using this, her accuracy was hard to describe.
"Who?!"
One of the men fighting with Qin Huyuan turned his head alertly, touching his torn pants with one hand, tightening the hilt of the knife with the other hand and staring at Lin Baoer's direction.
Lin Baoer was startled and rolled to the side.
