This series of speculations brought immense shock to Huo Si Ning, affecting her cognition to some extent. She subconsciously stopped walking, her mind in turmoil with various thoughts racing.
Up ahead, Xie Daoyuan noticed Huo Sining standing in place in a daze. Unable to contain his curiosity, he turned his head to look at Huo Sining:
"Huo girl, what's wrong, keep walking?"
"Ah? Oh, I'm walking now."
It was only after Xie Daoyuan called out to her that Huo Sining came back to her senses, hurriedly taking a few steps to catch up with the group ahead.
As for the characters on the stone pillars, Huo Sining didn't mention them. After all, once they went up, the archaeological team arranged by Zhou Shitao would come down, so it would be the same whether she said anything or not. Once exposed to light, those characters couldn't be hidden.
