The crowd moved upon hearing the sound, parting the dense grass and vines, and a massive stone sculpture in the shape of a snake came into view.
The stone carving is a type of art sculpture, which is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and difficult, so very few people engage in it.
The stone sculpture before them, with the snake's body coiled for seven or eight meters, was incredibly lifelike, undoubtedly the work of a master.
Especially those snake eyes, crystal clear...
Hmm?
"Gemstones!"
Someone in the mercenary team spoke with a trembling voice:
"The snake eyes are gemstones!"
Even without being a jade expert, one could see the extraordinary nature of those snake eyes, surely worth a high estimate.
After all, fist-sized gemstones are extremely rare, and even if they have impurities, they could be divided and sold in parts.
"Go up."
Two mercenaries nimbly climbed onto the snake's head, knives in hand, prying at the two snake eyes.
