Walking to the foot of the mountain, Long Chen looked at the mottled brown color and touched it with his hand. It felt really cold.
"That's right, it feels like this. Just touch it."
The texture of the mountain is similar to that of broken particles. It should be called Bingyu Mountain, but the color of the mountain rocks is difficult to associate with the word "Bingyu".
Cheng Jin put his hand on the mountain and felt a bone-chilling chill, as if it was going to follow the meridians of his palm towards his heart.
"It feels like this. It should be Bingyu Mountain."
Cheng Jin looked up. He couldn't think of any other mountain that was more like Bingyu Mountain than this one.
"Then it should be, let's look for any traces of the holy beast."
Long Chen walked around Bingyu Mountain looking for traces left by the holy beast.
The goal of this trip is not to find Bingyu Mountain, but to find clues to the sacred beast from Bingyu Mountain.
There is a broken particle left under the altar. This broken particle comes from Bingyu Mountain. The holy beast is probably related to this mountain.
Cheng Jin walked around the mountain from the other side looking for traces.
Cheng Jin had doubts in his mind, why should he search for traces around the mountain? Shouldn't he be searching for traces around Bingyu Mountain?
Could it be that the holy beast is also looking for Bingyu Mountain?
Just as he was thinking wildly, Cheng Jin suddenly jumped out of the way and a large piece of hard ice fell from the top, almost hitting Cheng Jin's head.
"Oh, I was scared to death."
The broken ice shot out, but Cheng Jin blocked it with his hand, so the broken ice did not hurt his face.
In other places, thick clothes can protect you from the cold and can also withstand the attack of broken ice.
Long Chen rushed over and asked, "Are you okay?"
Cheng Jin patted his heart and said, "It's okay, it's just a piece of broken ice falling, which scared me to death."
Long Chen looked up and saw that there were still ice hanging on some places.
"There...why is there an icicle sticking out?"
When Long Chen looked up, he found an ice pillar extending out a hundred meters from the top, like a mortise-and-tenon structure diving into the mountain.
"Sir, be careful that thing falls too."
Cheng Jin was still frightened, fearing that the ice pillar would fall again.
Long Chen's body flew up and quickly landed on the protruding ice pillar.
Standing on it, Long Chen discovered that this section of the mountain was different. The rocks here were as warm and impurity-free as jade, unlike the mottled rocks at the foot of the mountain.
Cheng Jin looked up at Long Chen and shouted, "Sir, is there anything different?"
The wind was so strong that it drowned out Cheng Jin's voice and Long Chen didn't hear it.
Walking along the ice pillars, Long Chen found a very strange place. It seemed that a lot of the jade stones around it had been dug away.
Rather than saying that a lot was dug out, it would be better to say that it was eaten by something.
That's right, it looks like it's been eaten by something, there are traces of teeth on it.
"Could it be that the holy beast ate ice jade here?"
A very magical thought occurred to Long Chen.
A monster eating rocks is funny when you think about it.
But the tooth marks on it are clearly like this.
Cheng Jin saw Long Chen staring at the mountain and thought that Long Chen must have discovered something.
He wanted to fly up, but was worried that the ice pillar might break if two people stood on it.
Long Chen pulled out the holy sword on his back and slashed hard at the ice jade. A piece of ice jade fell down, and Long Chen stretched out his hand to catch it.
Putting away the holy sword and opening it a little harder, Long Chen thought for a while, opened his mouth and swallowed a grain of ice jade.
A chill melted in my stomach, feeling like I had swallowed a popsicle.
"Can this thing be digested after swallowing?"
Long Chen felt very surprised. Stones could actually be digested?
Long Chen continued to fly upwards and found signs of eating in more than one place.
Wherever there is ice jade, there are almost signs of eating.
In other words, the holy beast has eaten ice jade here more than once.
After falling from the mountainside, Long Chen held the ice jade in his hand. Cheng Jin asked in surprise: "Sir, is there ice jade on it?"
Long Chen broke off a little, handed it to Cheng Jin, and said, "Swallow it."
Cheng Jin was stunned for a moment, then said: "Sir, is this a stone?"
Long Chen broke off a little of it himself, opened his mouth and swallowed it.
Cheng Jin was stunned to see that Long Chen actually ate rocks.
"Sir, are you okay?"
Cheng Jin still couldn't believe it, thinking that Long Chen was possessed by evil spirits.
"This thing is edible, really edible."
Long Chen said very seriously.
Cheng Jin then carefully put it into his mouth and swallowed it slowly. A chill spread throughout his body, and Cheng Jin couldn't help but shiver.
"My mother, I'm so cold. It's so cold."
Cheng Jin felt like all the heat in his body had been sucked away, and his body felt cold.
Long Chen said: "The ice jade above has signs of being eaten. I suspect that the holy beast has been here and eaten the ice jade here."
"And more than once, I suspect that the holy beasts began to eat the ice jade here a long time ago."
There are more than one traces on it, and it seems to be from more than one time.
Cheng Jin said: "This means that the holy beast has long known that the ice jade here can be eaten?"
Long Chen nodded and said: "I guess so."
Indications suggest that is the case.
Cheng Jin said with some confusion: "Where is the holy beast now? We found this place, but there is no trace of the holy beast."
Long Chen shook his head and said: "Your question is very good, but I don't know."
Cheng Jin looked at Long Chen speechlessly, as if he didn't say anything.
During these days with Long Chen, Cheng Jin discovered that Long Chen was not a murderer, not scary at all, and he also liked to joke.
Long Chen is a scary person to be an enemy, but very comfortable to be a friend.
"Then what should we do? Wait here and wait? Wait for the holy beast to appear again?"
Cheng Jin was a little confused.
I finally found clues related to the holy beast, but they were just clues.
Long Chen said: "A lot of ice jade was eaten on it. I guess the holy beast will not come again."
It's not a good idea to wait and see what happens, and it's likely to fail here.
How often does the holy beast eat ice jade? No one knows the time.
If it only comes once a hundred years, wouldn't it mean that we have to wait here for a hundred years, and the day lilies will go rancid?
"What should we do?"
Cheng Jin found that he could only ask what to do and had no idea at all.
Long Chen said: "The holy beast has eaten enough ice jade and regained its strength. Then... what will it do?"
Cheng Jin thought for a while and said: "If I were a holy beast, of course I would seek revenge from the Martial Saint. I have been imprisoned for four hundred years. Why not take revenge?"
Just like a person who suffers a lot and has deep hatred, the first thing he does when he comes out of prison is to settle the score with his enemy.
Long Chen smiled and said: "I think so too. The holy beast that has eaten its fill of ice jade will probably go to the Hera Pass from here."
"So, now let's head towards the Hera Pass and see if we can find it."
Speaking of the Hera Pass, Cheng Jin was a little worried.
"Sir, if we encounter the Martial Saint at the Hera Pass, we will be in trouble."
Ghost soldiers were gathered near the Hera Pass. Long Chen and Cheng Jin went there. It was too reckless to do so.
"Don't worry, if I meet Martial Saint, I won't abandon you."
Long Chen smiled and patted Cheng Jin. Cheng Jin smiled awkwardly and said, "That's right, you never abandon your comrades."
Long Chen walked to the north. Cheng Jin raised his head and glanced at the Bingyu Mountain and said, "Sir, I'm here for a trip. Wouldn't it be a pity not to take away some ice jade?"
