Chapter 60: The Ruins

Although the yellow crane flew up a little trembling and swaying, looking so unreliable, the actual speed was not slow at all, and he quickly took Su Chen out of danger.

Su Chen simply took a willful hand, hugged Huang He's neck and lay on it for a while, letting Huang He fly freely, as long as he could take himself to a safe place.

Although it has the effect of "Rejuvenation Formula", Su Chen actually basically doesn't need to sleep. However, this kind of occasional break is still very fun, and it can also be very convenient for him to relax his tense spirit.

Therefore, when he has the conditions, he will also take the initiative to close his eyes and indulge the needs of his body's old habits a little.

When Su Chen opened his eyes, he found himself in a sparse stone forest.

The Yellow Crane stood at the highest point of a stone pillar not far from him. With his eyes closed, his head down, his wings folded, one foot retracted and clinging to his body, while the other foot stood straight, with an elegant and beautiful posture.

Occasionally, he will stick out his long pointed mouth and comb his feathers, and he will look very comfortable.

Su Chen squinted his eyes and looked around, and suddenly remembered where this place was.

This is a relic of an ancient civilization in Mosstown.

In the old days, Su Chen once bought a set of books called "The Unsolved Mysteries of Blue Star", which introduced in detail the many unsolved mysteries of Blue Star, various ruins, and various legends related to it, and this site is precisely one of them.

This site is full of such stone pillars, carved with strange patterns, a few of which look like some kind of simple decorative pattern, and most of them look like human faces with different expressions.

The place where Su Chen is lying now is between several tall stone pillars, the color of the stone pillars is all black, and it is not the same material at all as the big bluestone used to build houses, pave roads, and build city walls in Moss City.

And each stone pillar is carved with five or six human faces, one by one arranged from top to bottom, the appearance of the human face is different, the expression is colorful, however, all the human faces have very exaggerated facial features. In particular, the big black eyes with protruding eyeballs, the long nose with a curved hook with a high nose bridge, and the lips that are as thick as sausages but have a beautiful shape make people feel unforgettable at first glance.

These stone carvings have long been recorded in the local chronicles of Moss City, and at the beginning of the city's construction, the locals had many legends about this stone forest.

Of course, there are many relics of ancient civilization with such a long history and colorful legends and stories in the hot summer. That's not why it's a "Blue Star Mystery".

It has become an unsolved mystery of Blue Star, in fact, mainly because of the following characteristics:

First of all, the material of these stone carvings seems to be very special. In the mineral resources of Blue Star, the same material as these swarthy stones has never been found.

Second, the stone carvings are all lifelike, but the archaeological finds on the Blue Star, and the fact that all races exist in real life, have no evidence to support the existence of humanoid or non-humanoid beings with faces of this characteristic.

Again, after thousands of years, or even longer, these stone carvings are still as fresh as they have just been completed in a place with harsh climatic conditions like Moss City, leaving no trace of age.

Even the results of the C14 test were met with a clear challenge - the result of the C14 test was that this thing was a modern work that had just been completed!

However, everyone knows that this ruin, before the founding of Moss City, has been silently existing for many years.

Therefore, this relic has become the content of the book "The Unsolved Mysteries of the Blue Star".

Su Chen felt that in fact, the person who wrote the book probably forgot one thing, and this relic also has a characteristic, that is, it is often forgotten, or in other words, it is often ignored.

Even the locals of Moss City are supposed to know that there is such a ruin of an ancient civilization, but there are almost only a handful of people who can think of visiting here.

Su Chen had measured Moss City with his feet before, and when he was looking for people everywhere, he forgot to come here to take a look. It's not that he hasn't passed through here, but when he passed here, he subconsciously bypassed it and completely forgot about this place.

This feature should actually be part of the unsolved mystery!

Su Chen didn't know how Huang He judged that this was a safe place, but thinking about it, this place didn't have any special value to ordinary people except for being a very unpopular ruin.

There was no market, no food and no water, no medicine and clothing, no weapons or vehicles, and no one would want to wander around.

Since it's a very remote place, it's likely to be forgotten by everyone. In addition, it has inherent characteristics that are often subconsciously overlooked...... Isn't such a place the safest and most reliable place in the last days?

Thinking of this, Su Chen suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.

Su Chen beckoned happily and put the yellow crane away.

However, Huang He rolled his eyes very skillfully, and deliberately "muttered" in a voice that Su Chen could hear, expressing his strong dissatisfaction; "Chaos at the beginning and abandonment at the end!"

Su Chen was choked and complained silently: Emma, Brother He, your Chinese teacher's coffin board is almost unbearable......

Su Chen was satisfied with this stone forest as his temporary habitat, and then he even felt a little uneasy, and on the periphery, he simply set up a simple five-petal plum blossom defense array.

No way, he hasn't been practicing with his grandfather for a long time, and there are only two formations he has learned, a five-petal plum blossom and a Big Dipper.

In fact, he has a fairly average grasp of these two formations, and he has not had much time to practice after so long. Basically, it's like relying on vague memories and learning from scratch through practice.

The defensive ability of the five-petal plum blossom array is not too strong, but the stealth ability can be called one of the best.

Although Su Chen is not proficient, it is not difficult to draw a gourd in the same way. It's just that you still need to temporarily cram, refining array plates and array flags on the spot, which is not a simple workload!

After spending nearly four hours and finally finishing all this, Su Chen wiped his sweat, rubbed his neck, and took some instant food from the talisman to fill his stomach.

To be honest, in that kitchen before, Su Chen smelled the fragrance of the sauce, and felt that his stomach was growling.

If it weren't for the tragic role he played at that time, Su Chen would definitely think that kitchen was the cutest place in the world!

After eating, Su Chen took out another futon that he usually used, crossed his legs, and hurried to practice. After all, the way Su Chen could think of to strengthen his strength for the time being was just to practice the "Rejuvenation Technique" desperately.
