Chapter 758: The artificial human remains in the Yin Ruins
Inside the Yin Ruins, everything is dilapidated. It is not the same as the desolation seen from the outside world, but a kind of... ruined walls with a sense of desolation and destruction.
"It's desolate outside, desolate inside, Shang..." Ji Chao sighed, walking along the streets of Yin Xu, exploring.
The smell of burnt blackness and soot caused by time corrosion entered Ji Chao's nose, causing him to sneeze twice.
The house collapsed and was in pieces. Occasionally, you could see two weathered charred corpses. Apart from that, because of the hidden barrier, there was no movement. Only the occasional wind blowing in from the outside could soothe the sadness of Yinxu.
"It's really miserable..."
After spending several days, Ji Chao explored all the exposed parts of the Yin Ruins, but found nothing of value. Apart from the ruins and scorched corpses, nothing else could be seen.
"So the really valuable things should be down here."
Ji Chao looked at his feet, sighed, and touched his belly.
It seems that I didn’t bring enough food...
And it is estimated that the excavation of the Yin Ruins is a big project, and no one can break this bone in a few years.
......take it easy.
...
After going out to buy enough food, Ji Chao stayed in Yin Xu. Unless he was buying things, he would not leave Yin Xu at all.
Only a small part of the Yin Ruins is still exposed on the ground, most of it has been buried underground by the sand. Only half of the various houses are exposed. It is not clear what is hidden under these ruins. Ji Chao can only press
Be patient and excavate the Yin Ruins bit by bit, looking for the back-up tools left by the gods here that can solve the chaos of alien races and spirits.
He studied under Taoist Si Ji, so he could naturally predict some things.
"All I need to do is dig slowly." He used magic to dig into the soil. He was obviously a powerful magician but was disgraced, but he didn't find it strange at all. "I only know that the fate is here, but I don't know the fate."
at what time."
"Once you find it, you've found your destiny. This is... destined."
There was seriousness in his eyes.
If it is for the sake of the Lord, for the sake of this world, even if I dig here for the rest of my life, so what?
But Ji Chao himself didn't expect that he would have to dig for seven years.
Even the King of Qin destroyed the Han Kingdom in 230 BC, and Ji Chao was still digging in the Yin Ruins.
Ji Chao sometimes feels a little doubtful about life.
Where is my fate? Where is my fate?
How many times have I tested the divination technique, and they all show that my destiny is in the Yin Ruins, so where did the destiny go?
At this time, Ji Chao was already 29 years old. He had grown a long beard and was no longer handsome. Moreover, due to long-term labor, he had naturally developed a muscular body.
A handsome young man turned into a dark man in seven years.
In April 229 BC, Ji Chao finally made a discovery.
Underneath a mansion, Ji Chao found a pothole. After identifying it, he found that there was still a large space underground.
After opening up the space, Ji Chao jumped into the deep pit.
"Uh-poof, this smells really disgusting."
Ji Chao frowned and kept waving his palms in front of his nose to dispel the strong musty smell.
Thoughts sinking, Ji Chao snapped his fingers to connect the thought key pattern.
A ray of light appeared in his hand. He put the light in front of him and explored the scene at the bottom of the pit.
but.......
The things in the pit are human bones.
There are many, many human bones, as well as rusty armor and decayed weapons.
"These...should be Shang's troops. Why did they die here?"
Sighing, Ji Chao shook his head, ignored these worthless bones, and headed deeper into the pit.
Along the way, Ji Chao not only met human bones, but also encountered bones of various other creatures. Some he knew and some he didn't understand. They were obviously not bones of normal creatures, but they were all decayed and worthless.
.
The space in the pit was surprisingly large, and Ji Chao found the end of the pit after twists and turns.
But what was waiting for him at the end was still a corpse.
But there was something unusual about this corpse.
Putting the light source aside, Ji Chao held his breath. The air here made it difficult for him to breathe.
He knelt on the ground with one knee and brushed away the dust on the corpse with his hands. What he saw was the skin tissue that seemed to be still intact.
"This is..." Ji Chao's eyes narrowed.
Linked with the thought key pattern, the entire end of the pit was illuminated. Ji Chao summoned the wind and wrapped it around his hands.
Using a brush, Ji Chao pulled out the things buried in the soil.
"Human..." He looked at the thing in front of him and felt his heart pounding.
There is no doubt that the thing he pulled out of the pit was a human being, but... it was not entirely human.
The parts that just came out of the ground are the calf and a bit of the heel. The structure of the lower body is basically complete, but from the waist up, it is in a state of dilapidation, with the fingers missing and the whole head in a mess. It is hard to tell who it belongs to.
Corpse.
What is striking is that under the missing part of the skin, Ji Chao discovered something completely different from human beings. Rather than saying it was human, it was better to say...
This is an exquisite machine man, or robot.
"Artificial man..." Ji Chao read out the name, with a little cold sweat on his face.
This word is recorded in the thought key pattern. Ji Chao has never been able to understand the meaning of this word. Until now when he discovered this thing, he suddenly realized that the thing in front of him was probably the so-called "artificial human".
Ji Chao fell into doubt.
Could this artificial human remains be the "fate" that he and Qin Wangzheng expected?
"Huh?" Lowering his head, Ji Chao suddenly noticed that there seemed to be something underneath the previous artificial man?
After a lot of effort, Ji Chao dug out the things under the artificial man.
"This...should be an artificial human?" He looked at this thing with a confused expression.
There is only a rough outline of the individual's appearance, and other parts are damaged.
With a sigh, Ji Chao tied the bodies of the two "artificial beings" to his back with a rope, and walked back along the way he came.
In any case, these two things should be the ones he has found in the seven years since he came to Yin Ruins, and they are the closest to the word "mysterious".
I hope you can bring me what the Lord really wants.
He jumped onto the ground and used ropes to pull up the bodies of the two androids. Ji Chao was just about to take these two things back and have a good rest when he suddenly met a figure at the corner.
"Wow——!"
He was obviously a big black man, but he was startled by the sudden figure.
"Who?" he shouted.
"Don't panic!"
"...It's me."
The figure of Taoist Si Ji stood in front of Ji Chao.
