Hu Bayi shook his head slowly; he was still very clear about the reality of everything in front of him.

He smiled bitterly and said: "It was the two of us who overestimated ourselves; this Mountain-Moving leader is truly worthy of her reputation."

"More than worthy of her reputation, this is simply a monster; the way she plays with this umbrella is more flexible than chopsticks."

"However, what is this thing? I've always seen her carrying it on her back, but I didn't expect it to have such a wonderful use!"

"What's scary is her body technique, plus the coordination with the umbrella in her hand; you wouldn't last three rounds against her with a military shovel."

Wang Kaixuan instinctively wanted to refute, but seeing Yang Lusi's invincible state at the moment, he subconsciously swallowed his saliva and didn't speak.

This was the bloody fact; some gaps could not be made up by courage alone!

The desert army ants seemed to be fearless as well; these little ants made up for the gap in strength with quantity.

Even though the previous two charges had no effect, and not even a single tiny pincer on their mouths had grazed Yang Lusi, and even more than ten thousand had died.

They still had no intention of retreating, constantly rushing up without hesitation.

Yang Lusi frowned slightly at the sight; ants, regardless of the variety, have a cohesion and execution that even humans need to learn.

Originally, Yang Lusi had intended to use this thunderous method to make these desert army ants retreat in the face of difficulties; after all, even the smallest creatures have at least some basic fear nerves.

But in the end, Yang Lusi underestimated them, and new reinforcements were still pouring out of that cave continuously.

Yang Lusi gritted her teeth secretly, thinking that this Young Master Zhao was truly a "lucky star"; he had inadvertently dug into the nest of the desert army ants.

Zhang Lin, who was watching the live broadcast, shook his head slowly and muttered to himself: "If this drags on, they will be dragged to death sooner or later."

Yang Lusi also realized this, and while the termite swarm was organizing an offensive, she pondered secretly.

Looking at the sunken area where the termites were pouring out, her eyes quickly locked onto the giant-eyed stone statue above it.

Yang Lusi thought that this was the only way; if this didn't work, she would have to choose to run away, and if these desert army ants chased after them, she would think of another way.

Pondering, Yang Lusi rushed directly toward that direction; with her body technique, it was basically in the blink of an eye.

Yang Lusi also showed her amazing footwork again; with just one kick, she directly straightened the giant-eyed stone statue.

At first, Yang Lusi didn't do this because she felt the hope was not great; it was true that this stone statue blocked the cave, but these desert army ants were omnipresent.

It wasn't that if you put it back intact, you could stop them from coming out.

But the moment the stone statue fell, Yang Lusi clearly heard a "clack" sound, which made her stunned for a moment.

This was completely contrary to common sense.

【Eh? Did I hear it wrong? It sounded like the sound of a spring?】

【It should be some kind of mechanism; this giant-eyed stone statue is not that simple.】

【I told you there must be a tomb underneath; why didn't you believe me.】

【Don't be shameless; it wasn't you who said it, it was Mr. Zhang's Luo Pan that discovered it, it was just this Young Master Zhao's blind handling that caused this.】

【Mr. Zhang is still the best; with just one spin of such a small Luo Pan, it's solved in one click!】

【If only he had come himself, this wouldn't have happened, and a few people died in vain, wuwuwu.】

【Such a supreme treasure, yet it fell into the hands of Young Master Zhao, what a sin!!!】

Even though Young Master Zhao had left everyone's sight, there were still many barrages mocking him.

After all, this matter started because of him, the Luo Pan was also taken out by him, and everyone couldn't forget the clear yellow stain on his pants in the back view of that photo.

If Young Master Zhao were here, he would definitely cry injustice; it was fine for him to be scolded, but why did Zhang Lin, who gave him the Luo Pan, get different treatment?

On the field, as the giant-eyed stone statue fell, the sound of the spring came, as if it had returned to its position.

Yang Lusi thought that next, she should kill the remaining desert army ants, and then she could leave here.

Sure enough, the army ants rushed toward this side.

Yang Lusi just wanted to make a move, but her body suddenly stiffened because she felt a trace of abnormality; this time the desert army ants rushed over completely differently from before.

They didn't carry any intention of attacking, but rather looked like they were running away.

Yang Lusi saw this and jumped out of this area with the Diamond Umbrella in her hand, and the desert army ants didn't chase after them; their target had completely changed, and it was exactly that giant-eyed stone statue.

Soon, their figures quickly disappeared; except for the stone statue left alone in the wind, nothing was left.

"Leader Yang, your skills are truly unmatched; admire, admire!"

Yang Lusi didn't respond to this flattery, but instead stared intently at the position of the stone statue.

At this time, she also began to associate the things that happened before and after. Young Master Zhao started by acting silly and saying a bunch of nonsense.

Afterward, he was spinning around with the Luo Pan and discovered this giant-eyed stone statue.

The core point of everything was the Luo Pan, the Luo Pan her senior brother Zhang Lin sold to Young Master Zhao!

If it were just Young Master Zhao playing around, Yang Lusi definitely wouldn't think much, but since this matter was connected to Zhang Lin, it definitely wasn't that simple.

Hu Bayi took a deep breath and asked: "Leader Yang, do you think there might really be something underneath?"

Yang Lusi shook her head immediately upon hearing this, saying: "I'm not sure either, but it's highly likely that it's just an anti-theft mechanism, but this giant-eyed stone statue is definitely related to what we are looking for."

The three didn't stay long, and at this moment, they would absolutely not seek death by continuing to move this giant-eyed stone statue.

On the way to find the main force, Wang Kaixuan couldn't help but ask: "Leader Yang, although we are also in archaeology, this giant-eyed stone statue doesn't seem to have been seen in the materials; do you know it? Can you popularize it for me?"

Yang Lusi said: "I don't know much either; there are a small number of records about giant-eyed stone statues in archaeological materials from the fifties and sixties, mostly found in Miao territory and the grasslands; legend has it that they are a type of worship called Shamanism."

This was also the real reason why Yang Lusi fell into doubt; the previous materials were definitely correct, the key was whether there was any connection between the two.

The wind and sand hadn't completely covered the footprints, and the three followed the camel team's tracks to regroup with everyone.

"Leader Yang, it's really great that you are okay."

At this time, Yang Lusi suddenly remembered something and asked hurriedly: "Has Young Master Zhao returned?"

The young man who spoke shook his head subconsciously, saying: "He ran to the other side at that time; I don't know where he went."

Yang Lusi's expression didn't look very good upon hearing this.
