Chapter 234: The End of the Canyon
There were two black shadows standing not far away, one on the left and one on the right, with a distance of nearly ten meters between them.
Judging from the distance from which they stood, they were very similar to the two sets of stone statues that everyone had seen before.
It's just that even if it is really two stone statues standing there now, it will make Chen Jinting and the others feel panicked in their hearts, and no one will forget the dull footsteps they heard before and the huge tremor from the ground.
Those terrible movements can only be caused by these stone statues that weigh thousands of pounds
Chen Jinting quietly squatted to the side, staring straight at the dark shadow not far in front of him for a long time, and only after the last determination did he speak.
"There shouldn't be any danger, it's just a stone statue"
That's right, the two stone statues that suddenly appeared, just like they had seen before, but the shape of these two stone statues was different from the previous ones.
Before, the two sets of stone statues that Chen Jinting and the others saw were not only weird, but also revealed an indescribable weirdness, which made people very uncomfortable to look at.
The two stone statues in front of him look much more pleasing to the eye, and it seems that these are two very tall standing statues.
And judging from the costumes carved on the lower body of the stone statues, these two stone statues are quite a bit of the Han and Tang dynasties.
The reason why you can only see the lower body of the stone statues is because the two stone statues are carved so tall.
Everyone could barely see the waist of the stone statue two meters above the waist when they looked up, and the stone statue was hidden in the dense fog above the waist and could not be seen at all.
The crowd did not stop around the two statues, but took a few photos with the camera left by Li Xiaobo, and then the procession continued on its way.
After seeing the stone statue again, Chen Jinting did not breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, but felt more and more strange, the stone statues would appear soon after, and this format and layout really reminded him of the stone statues arranged on both sides of the Imperial Tomb Shinto.
If you want to say that the most famous stone statue is probably the Qianling Tomb where the only female emperor in Chinese history is buried, Wu Zetian.
As the joint burial tomb of Wu Zetian and her husband Tang Gaozong, Qianling has set up 1 pair of Huabiao, 1 pair of winged horses and 1 pair of ostriches, 5 pairs of stone horses, 10 pairs of Weng Zhong, and 2 stone tablets on both sides of its Shinto.
In addition, in the Qianling Tomb, there is also a stone statue of "sixty-one Fanchen". The existence of these stone statues is because after the death of Tang Gaozong, the princes and envoys of various countries came to Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, to mourn and go to the Qianling Tomb for funeral.
In order to commemorate the grand occasion at that time, and to highlight the strength of the country, Wu Zetian ordered the people to participate in the funeral of the kings and envoys from all over the world, and carved 61 stone statues in the costumes and sizes of the simulated people.
Although there are many stone statues in the Qianling, but their shapes are all the shapes of some stone horses and stone elephants of Wenchen military generals, and the most strange ones are the stone statues in the shape of ostriches.
But the stone statues here are far from being as peaceful and calm as those in the Qianling, these stone statues in the canyon are not only weird and look eerie, faintly making people have a chilling feeling, and Chen Jinting can be sure that there must be more than these stone statues in the canyon, and you should encounter these strange stone statues if you go further.
Thinking in his heart, Chen Jinting told the others behind him about this idea, so that everyone could be mentally prepared, so as not to be frightened after seeing any strange stone statues again.
The two tall stone statues appeared just now, and when Chen Jinting found the stone statues, they were only a few meters away from the stone statues.
At this distance, if there is not a stone statue, but some other "thing".
The consequences were unimaginable.
In fact, the discovery of the stone statue at such a close distance does not mean that Chen Jinting, a scout, is incompetent.
Rather, the concentration of this fog is too great. The visibility in it is only two or three meters away, and if you can see things at two or three meters, you can only stare at the two 1.5 eyes without blinking
Sure enough, as Chen Jinting expected, the team continued to move forward, and successively found several groups of stone statues standing on both sides of the canyon.
These stone statues are also strangely shaped, some seem to be born deformed, and some resemble monsters that are a hybrid between humans and beasts.
Looking at it, it is normal to look at the two stone statues with obvious costumes with the legacy of the Han and Tang dynasties.
Chen Jinting still didn't do much research on these stone statues that were found later, and even saved taking pictures later.
The big guy just wanted to hurry forward and see if he could find the imaginary emperor's tomb, even if there was no emperor's tomb, he had to quickly find a way out and get out of this damn canyon.
Of course, if Xingyan is still alive, he will also be found and taken out of the city.
But at this moment, not only Zhang Fei, but even Chen Jinting has no hope in his heart about whether Xingyan is alive
With the discovery of the last group of stone statues, this foggy canyon has finally come to an end.
The fog at the end of the canyon has changed again, and the fog here is not particularly thick, and the visibility has expanded to more than ten meters.
But this improvement in visibility did not bring a good mood to the group.
Looking at the cliff that gradually emerged in front of them and plunged into the thick fog, everyone had a look of extreme disappointment on their faces.
"What the fuck is going to fuck out of here! It's too late to fly out of the long wings now! Zhang Fei sat on the ground with a sad face.
Chen Jinting also couldn't laugh or cry, he didn't expect to end up in a dead end.
There are so many stone statues in this canyon, I didn't expect it to lead to a dead end.
Previously, Chen Jinting also thought that this canyon was a Shinto road leading to the emperor's tomb, and these stone statues were stone statues standing on both sides of the Shinto.
But now it seems, let alone the emperor's tomb, there is not even a loess tomb at the end of this canyon!
"Lao Suo" Chen Jinting called Lao Suo beside him in frustration.
"You've got a cigarette gone, give me one"
Hearing this, Lao Suo stepped forward, took out a crumpled cigarette case from his chest pocket, took out the last cigarette roll and handed it to Chen Jinting.
"I see that those stone statues of Team Chen are stone statues, why is there nothing at the end of this?"
Lao Suo took out a match and lit the cigarette for Chen Jinting, and then frowned and muttered to him.
Not to mention Lao Suo, Chen Jinting also wondered about this in his heart.
It stands to reason that there must be some use for so many stone statues in the canyon after such a great effort, and it is impossible to have nothing at the end
Just when Chen Jinting was puzzled, Gong Ping's voice suddenly came from behind him.
"Xiao Yao, what are you looking at?"
Hearing Gong Ping's voice, Chen Jinting subconsciously turned around and saw Gong Ping walking towards Yao Lina, who was squatting aside and looking at the group of stone statues that he found after the most difficult time.
When they saw that there was a dead end in front of them, Chen Jinting and the others were all immersed in disappointment, and no one was in the mood to study the two stone statues.
Unexpectedly, Yao Lina, who was frightened several times, was the first to come forward to observe these two stone statues.
However, after hearing Gong Ping's inquiry, Yao Lina did not answer out loud, still studying one of the stone statues with her head down.
Since being frightened for the second time, Yao Lina has become silent, and everyone thinks that this is a normal reaction after being frightened, so they have not paid much attention to it.
At this time, seeing Yao Lina studying the stone statue, and even Gong Ping didn't respond to her, Chen Jinting couldn't help but be curious, and didn't know what Yao Lina saw and fell into a trance.
Thinking in his heart, Chen Jinting also stepped forward to see the true faces of the two stone statues that appeared at the back of the world
