There is a big snake carved on the jade brick, and its appearance is lifelike. Looking at other jade bricks, it is the same. Suddenly, a cold air spreads under the feet, as if there is a giant snake lying under the shallow water.
Gradually, my eyes adapted to the light under the moonlight, and I could see more clearly. I started to pick up Wang Huizhen and continue walking forward.
The dark mountains on both sides were surprisingly quiet. I waded in the shallow water, my heart trembling. When I walked about half a mile, a green jade building appeared at the end!
My breath couldn't help but stagnate. The area of this jade stone building is huge, with layers upon layers and numerous stone houses. It almost fills up the steep mountain pass. However, the appearance of the ruins and broken walls gives it an ancient and dilapidated appearance.
I wonder if this is the ruins of the ancient Su family. In my eyes, it looks more like a tomb. However, it is much safer to rest in a stone building than outside. Besides, Wang Huizhen needs a safe place to rest. .
When I came to the stone building, I found that the bottom of the building had collapsed, and the spring water under my feet was flowing from the jade ruins.
This building is not made of paper. I walked in along the broken stone steps. The light of the moonlight was refracted by the green jade, making it look crystal clear, like green ice cubes, slowly glowing.
In the center of the stone steps is a huge snake statue, but it is now broken into pieces. The snake's head is damaged beyond recognition. The hall on the first floor has collapsed, but there is still a wide space on the second floor, with every corner There are many jade vessels on display, some decayed bronze spears scattered on the ground, as well as many human bones, snake bones, and some human and snake tail bones. Judging from this scene, a genocide battle must have occurred here.
Moreover, there are a large number of giant snake sacrificial patterns carved on the jade walls. The worship of snakes by the ancient Su tribe can be said to have reached a certain height.
For the current situation, Wang Huizhen and I need a more private and safer place to rest. We are indeed too tired this day. Thinking about this, I climbed up the stone steps of the Jade Tower. A higher place may be The safest place.
This jade building can have seven or eight floors, and there are far more buildings like this, but this one is bigger. My arms were a little sore while holding Wang Huizhen, and I endured all the way to the top floor. It was a scene full of wreckage. Most of the antiquities in the jade house were decayed and blackened. The walls of the passage were first murals of big snakes, and then gradually portraits of humans and snakes.
The top floor is a spacious hall with a jade throne. Under the throne is a human-snake skeleton, holding a bronze staff covered with gold skin. There are many human remains around, and one of them has a bronze sword thrust into it. It hit the man-snake's chest. It seemed that this was the blow!
From this gold-skinned bronze staff, we can roughly guess the noble status of the human snake, and he is probably the patriarch of the ancient Su clan.
I placed Wang Huizhen on the jade throne, took off her leather jacket and covered her body, and tucked her hair behind her ears.
I lowered my head to look at the bronze sword again. After thousands of years, there was no trace of corrosion, and it was still very bright. When I picked it up, it was very heavy. I could barely pick it up with both hands. This shows how dense the sword is. How big is it.
When I was in shock, Wang Huizhen woke up and said to me: "Brother Guo, feed me something to eat."
