Episode 8 recap: Ma Long deduced the entire process of the incident.
Based on the surveillance footage, it was indeed Jinlong who ran away on his own. But how was that possible? The group went back to the museum to reinvestigate. They carefully examined the scene multiple times but found no clues. Badou couldn't help but exclaim that even if Jinlong ran away, he should have left footprints. At that moment, Xiaoyu suddenly noticed that the floating Jinlong in the surveillance footage seemed real. Ma Long boldly stated that there are many things in the world that cannot be explained by science, but there is absolutely nothing that violates the laws of physics.
Ma Long then climbed a ladder and used a detector to start probing the ventilation duct. As expected, there was a problem. Using the detector as a navigation tool, they followed the ventilation duct and made a new discovery at the end — ants! How could ants have taken the golden dragon on their own? Ma Long made a conjecture that someone must have controlled the ants. Although everyone was skeptical, Ma Long began to analyze the situation. He found that the ants were Qinzhongju black ants, a species capable of lifting iron objects weighing the same as their own body weight. It was highly likely that someone had tamed the ants and used some method, possibly using the sound of the xun, to control them and move the golden dragon. As for the security guard's sighting of the duplicate Terracotta Warriors, it was likely due to an illusion caused by the security guard. This was also a misleading effect of the xun sound.
Ma Long took the portrait drawn by Zeng Xiaogong and found his friend, who surprisingly advised him not to get involved in this matter!
