After passing through the beast's mouth, the river became narrower, and the speed of the water flow clearly increased by a lot.
Moreover, the surrounding environment had also changed.
On the rocks on both sides of the river, there were actually stone figurines hanging upside down.
These stone terracotta warriors were tied up with iron chains and dropped onto the stone roof.
In the damp and cold environment, moss had grown on the surface of the stone figurines, and there was a moldy black substance on them.
It was extremely terrifying in the dark and gloomy river.
It was difficult to determine the gender of these terracotta warriors based on their appearance. One could only vaguely determine their height, height, fat, and thinness.
The copper chain was covered in rust, and several parts of the stone figurines had been broken. The stone figurines on it had disappeared.
"There are so many terracotta warriors. These look similar to the terracotta warriors we encountered on the road before.”
Xiao Xia exclaimed.
Professor Wang had already raised his head and was carefully observing the stone figurines.
"These are all stone figurines from the Xian Wang era. They are precious 'real-life materials' for our research of history.”
"Quick, Xiao Liu, move the boat to the side.”
Xiao Liu was Professor Wang's serious female assistant. She was in her thirties.
Hearing the professor's words, she carefully pushed the bamboo raft towards a stone figurine.
The stone figurines were not far from the water surface, so Professor Wang, who was standing on the bamboo raft, could easily reach them.
Professor Wang put on professional gloves and scratched the stone figurine a few times with a special handmade knife.
Then, he placed the scraped substance in front of his nose and sniffed it.
"As expected, this human figurine is the same as the one we encountered earlier. It's not made of stone, but of soil.”
Although the outer skin of the stone servant was tough, it was as thin as a pair of zen wings.
After taking some of the materials from the terracotta and putting them into transparent bags, Professor Wang cut a hole in the terracotta's leg.
The opening was filled with rotten maggots and a dense pile of eggs.
After taking a photo with his camera, Professor Wang was no longer interested.
He waved his hand to signal his assistant to continue moving forward. He sighed and said,""I thought these hanging terracotta warriors were used as burial pits.”
"But now it seems that this isn't used as a 'sacrificial pit.”
"But if it wasn't for the sacrificial pit, why would King Xian let so many living people hang here?”
"Using such a cruel method? Is it an evil spell?”
"But what exactly is this spell used for?”
Professor Wang was getting more and more curious about King Xian's tomb.
The more curious he was, the more he wanted to explore it and find the answer.
On the bamboo raft at the front, Fatty heard Professor Wang's words and felt that it was a little strange. He turned to Hu Bayi and asked.
"Old Hu, do you know what the hell is this spell?”
"The Art of Bewitching is one of the three great evil arts of ancient southern Yunnan. Legend has it that it is extremely vicious and cruel."”
"This King Xian is the person who used this evil art to its extreme in ancient times.”
"He was called the Magus King of the generation by the people of that time. His magic used the souls of the dead as a medium.”
"The more vengeful souls there are, the more powerful his [Fire] spell will be, and the more effective it will be.”
"The terracotta warriors here died in such a strange manner. They should have directly sealed their five senses with soil and suffocated to death. That's the only way to maximize their resentment.”
"The so-called 'Maximizing Resentment' is also known as the 'Ghostly Attraction.' After forcing the pill of the Ghostly Art to be consumed, the body will continuously produce eggs according to the changes in the resentment.”
"In just a few days, the flesh and blood in the human body will be sucked dry, forming a vacuum environment.”
"And the bugs in your body will also become a vacuum state and enter a dormant period.”
"This is also the reason why this stone figurine is so 'brittle.' Once it is broken, it will alarm the eggs in its body.”
Hearing Hu Bayi's words, Fatty Wang felt a chill run down his spine, and goosebumps appeared all over his body.
"So cruel? This old bastard King Xian is truly ruthless."
"I didn't expect this human figurine to be made by a real person.”
"However, what is the purpose of this King Xian doing this? It couldn't be just to look good hanging like this, right?”
Hu Bayi rolled his eyes at Fatty." If I knew, I wouldn't need to talk about a lot of theoretical knowledge here.”
"I already told you the answer."
"But one thing is for sure. It can't be just to look good or scare people. There must be a reason for these human figurines to be hung here.”
As the two of them were talking, a faint voice drifted over from the front. It was Lu Chen who spoke.
"King Xian's technique is related to the miasma in front of the valley.”
As soon as Lu Chen spoke, the two of them looked at him at the same time.
"Mist?"
"Is it the poisonous miasma that Blind Chen mentioned, the one floating in Insect Valley?!”
Before coming to Dragon Covering Mountain, Hu Bayi and the others had received Chen Yulou's guidance.
There was also a description of poisonous creatures on the human skin map.
That was why they knew about the miasma.
Hu Bayi and Fatty Wang were both surprised.
"Lu... Brother Lu, you also know about the poisonous miasma?”
" Yes." Lu Chen nodded." The miasma wasn't naturally formed. King Xian created it through a series of evil methods."”
Hearing this, the two of them looked at each other in shock.
"How do you know so clearly? This has nothing to do with Insect Valley, it has to do with Xian King.”
" You even know this?!"
Lu Chen snorted and smiled. His hand that was holding the bamboo pole trembled slightly.
A pair of slender fingers appeared in front of the two of them.
The moment they saw Lu Chen's finger, Hu Bayi and Fatty Wang's pupils widened at the same time.
She widened her eyes.
"Fa... Hair Hill Soul Severing Finger! Oh..."
