"This is a miracle!" Ye Ya corrected Liu Canghai's words sternly. Using the word "miracle" to describe these things in front of him is obviously weak. Only the word "miracle" can match everything he saw before him.
"I agree!" Liu Canghai took a deep breath and said seriously. "But, how can there really be a god in this world?" Liu Canghai said frustratedly.
With the new discovery, the team's spirit was refreshed. No need for Shensha to urge them, and everyone's speed naturally increased a lot.
"Sure enough, they are jade figurines!" Almost half an hour later, the team had arrived in front of the figurines, and Liu Canghai exclaimed excitedly. The texture of the figurines was indeed jade, and most of them were made of sapphire and ink.
Jade.
But Chen Ziyun's expression was frozen. What he noticed was not the texture of the figurines, but the carving technique and the appearance of the figurines. These were the things he paid most attention to. The jade figurines were larger than he expected.
Four meters is a little higher, with an average of nearly five meters. But the carving and polishing method is very rough. Only a few strokes are used to carve out a rough outline of a human body. Not even the lines of clothes on the body are carved out. But at a glance
, the desolate and primitive smell exuding from the jade figurines is even stronger.
The jade figurines are arranged in a ring, forming a circle. They are densely packed inside and are huge in number. They block the way to the mountain peak in front. They are like guards of the mountain peak. A rough estimate is that it is about 30 miles away from the mountain peak.
It looks like a few kilometers, and within these few kilometers, countless jade figurines stand. The peak is not very high, about three or four hundred meters. At this time, the clouds and mist are shrouded, and it is difficult to see the face. But you can see the peak
Everyone couldn't help but frown. When they saw this mountain peak from a very far distance, it seemed that it was not much different from what they saw at close range. It was just clearer and the mountain looked more majestic. However, this phenomenon Ye Ya
It has already been explained. What they saw before was just the refraction of light and shadow, not the appearance of the mountain itself.
Chen Ziyun had no time to estimate the mountain peaks in the distance. He was horrified to find that the jade figurines in front of him had been extremely severely damaged.
The heads of many jade figurines have disappeared, leaving only the area below the neck. Some have less damage, but half of their faces have also disappeared. Judging from the wounds, they appear after being hit hard by blunt objects.
So damaged.
"What, what's going on?" Wang Xiaowu jumped down from Wukong's shoulders and cried out in pain. "This is malicious destruction! How can it be like this!" Wang Xiaowu shouted loudly.
However, Ye Ya glanced at Wang Xiaowu coldly, snorted, and then said after a while: "This is the product of war."
Seeing Ye Ya approaching, Wang Xiaowu quickly moved away, not daring to let Ye Ya get too close.
Chen Ziyun was able to deduce it without Ye Ya's analysis. Along the way, he found quite a few corpses. He had already deduced that at least one war had occurred in this Jade Valley, with the total number of warring parties reaching more than 5,000.
But after taking a quick look and discovering the damage suffered by these jade figurines, Chen Ziyun had to double his estimate of the scale of this war.
"Help look for it and see if there are any jade figurines that have not been damaged." Chen Ziyun frowned and said to everyone.
The team members were already shocked by the sight before them. Most of them held their breath and looked up at the group of jade figurines in front of them. A few team members even approached the jade figurines, touched the marks on them, and made exclamations in their mouths. Even the sinking sand.
I can't help but feel moved. Ye Ya is right, everything here can only be described with the word "miraculous".
After hearing Chen Ziyun's words, everyone dispersed and searched carefully among the jade figurines. Shen Sha said: "Everyone must pay attention to safety!" There were countless incomplete jade figurines, and most of them had damaged heads, which gave people a sense of wonder.
A strange feeling of depression. This feeling made Shen Sha feel uneasy in his heart.
Naturally, everyone did not dare to be careless. The encounters along the way and the losses of team members were enough to make them
The team members were in high spirits.
Chen Ziyun was very disappointed with the news fed back by the team members. The heads of the jade figurines they came into contact with were basically severely damaged, and the outline of the face could not be seen at all.
Chen Ziyun wanted to find the broken fragments of the jade figurine on the ground, trying to piece it together but it was far from the original appearance of the jade figurine. But to his disappointment, there were not even jade fragments on the ground, not to mention the fragments. There was only a thin layer of soil on top.
There are quite a few half-dead green moss. When the soil layer under the green moss is peeled off, the bottom is still the same as the surrounding jade valley, which is a solid piece of sapphire.
Chen Ziyun smiled bitterly. He thought that after the war, the fragments of the jade figurines had been cleaned up. But Chen Ziyun couldn't figure out what the significance of putting these jade figurines here was. Each one weighed at least three tons.
After seeing the jade figurines, Chen Ziyun felt powerless.
"These jade figurines should be the ceremonial guards guarding the Jade Castle." Ye Ya carefully studied everything on the jade figurines and quickly came to a conclusion.
"Jade Castle!" Chen Ziyun suddenly remembered this word. This place was mentioned both in Zen Shiqi's mouth and in Golin's notebook. However, he had not found the so-called Jade Castle after entering the valley for so long. His eyes
As soon as it lit up, he asked Ye Ya: "Where is the Jade Castle?"
Ye Ya stared at Chen Ziyun blankly for a while, which made Chen Ziyun feel a little scared. Ye Ya said, "You don't know?"
Chen Ziyun shook his head.
Ye Ya frowned, took a breath, and sighed: "Your eyes are on the soles of your feet, right?" She pursed her lips toward the back of the jade figurine.
Chen Ziyun looked up and saw nothing else except the mountain peaks shrouded in clouds and mist.
"Isn't that a mountain peak?" Chen Ziyun asked in confusion.
"Okay..." Ye Ya sighed and said, "Do you think that the place regarded as a holy place by the dragon guardians is just a broken mountain? What's there to protect?" Ye Ya casually threw a telescope to Chen Ziyun, and Ye Ya
He also gave a warm reminder: "Stand higher and look, otherwise you still can't see clearly."
Chen Ziyun looked suspicious. He thought with horror: "Could this mountain peak be the Jade Castle?" Thinking of this, his heart tightened. There were so many jade stones in the Jade Valley that he couldn't breathe. To say that half of the mountain peak was one piece
The huge jade stone would not be a big surprise to Chen Ziyun.
After looking around, Chen Ziyun found that his sight had been blocked by all the jade figurines. He just gritted his teeth, climbed on the head of a headless jade figurine, held the telescope, and looked towards the distant mountain peaks.
"Oh my God!" Chen Ziyun suddenly shouted excitedly, his legs trembled, and he fell off the jade figurine!
