"So whenever someone puts their ears against the stone wall of Zhelong Mountain, they will hear bursts of desperate wailing and crying from people in the mountain."
"But this is all It's a legend circulating in the local area. No one knows how the cave was formed, or whether there were any rebels inside. "
"There was someone there probably more than ten years ago. While mining stones at the foot of Zhelong Mountain, I discovered a cave made of limestone with underground water inside. Following this water through the mountain, you can reach the Snake River at the other end of Zhelong Mountain. ”
“The water depth is just right. You can drive into the bamboo raft, and the water flow in this waterway is gentle. It is a straight cave with no twists and turns in the cave. You can go down the river, but it will take some effort to hold on to the bamboo pole when you come back. "
"However, there are many strange corpses on both sides of the cave for some reason. If you are timid, you should not take a shortcut. "
Several people felt that this road was better. The two roads on the human skin map were much smoother, so I thanked the landlady and returned to the room to discuss the specific matters.
"Tomorrow we will go find the shortcut mentioned by the landlady. It is much better than going over the mountains." Hu Bayi said.
"The road that the landlady mentioned should be a kind of funeral straight road."
Zhang Qiling opened his mouth, and he knew what that road was as soon as he heard the landlady's description. Such existence.
"Brother, you are very knowledgeable and know a lot." The fat man raised his thumb to Zhang Qiling.
"Brother Zhang, if you know this knowledge, do you think this road will be dangerous?" Xue Liyang asked.
"It's hard to say. The ancient Dian Kingdom worshiped insect art and cannot be judged by common sense. Since the proprietress said that someone has walked there before, there should be no danger." Zhang Qiling thought for a while and said .
"This little brother is right. Before I went to present the king's tomb, I visited the old people in the local village and learned some insect techniques from them."
" King Xian and others who separated from the ancient Dian Kingdom had a very strange ritual, which was to suspend a large vat with many pores in the water and then seal the person in it. In the water tank, the person must be alive before entering the water, and then draw a soul-forbidden charm on the water tank, which is said to keep the soul of the dead person in the flesh and blood."
"The small fish in the water got into the tank through the small holes and ate the corpses soaked in water. The resentful souls of the deceased were also eaten by these fish. It didn't take long for them to be eaten until all that was left was a dry one. Clean white bones."
"And the small fish that eat the flesh of the dead souls grow very fast, and can reach more than three feet in a few days.
You can't get out of the hole, so on a full moon night, lift out the large tank from the water.
The human bones were burned as sacrifices to the jade beasts, and then these fish were eaten in soup. ”
“It is said that this fish soup is extremely delicious, and eating this fish can prolong your life.”
But in fact, the fish grown by this method are no longer fish, but called insects.
The fish meat contains the undead souls who died unjustly and has already become poison. As long as you drink this soup, you will not survive for three days. "
"This kind of poison kills people invisible. No trace of poisoning can be found on the body of the dead person, and there is still a smile on his face when he is dying, as if he is still savoring the deliciousness of the fish soup. "
Xue Liyang and Lin Ruoyan frowned when they heard this.
"Old man, what you said means that we will never be able to face fish soup again. "The fat man said with a sad face.
"I am telling you just to let you know how vicious this King Xian is, so even if someone walks by this shortcut, you still have to be careful. Who knows what this old man Xian Wang is? What a gimmick. ”
Zhang Qiling still has little contact with Miao people’s insect art. When he heard such details for the first time, he felt a little nauseous.
This chapter is not finished yet, click next Page to continue reading.
It seems that he did not go to the grave too much.
The next day, after dinner, they walked in the direction pointed by the innkeeper.
The mountainous areas in Yunnan are humid and hot, and mosquitoes breed. Except for Zhang Qiling and Lin Ruoyan, they are miserable.
Even if they spray insect repellent, they can only control it. After a while, the few people could only walk for a while and then stop to spray again.
By the time they found the place, the clouds in the sky were getting lower and lower.
< p> Sure enough, the weather is changing. It was scorching hot just a moment ago, but it turned extremely gloomy in the next moment.There is a small motorboat in Lin Ruoyan's space, which Shirley Yang spent a lot of money to transport from the coastal area.
Just in case of encountering a waterway, it can be used.
This motorboat can still accommodate six people. Xueli Yang went to the cave to test the depth and water. The water flow was estimated to be enough to carry a few of them.
Then the few people followed Lin Ruoyan to the cave, and when Lin Ruoyan waved his hand, the small motorboat appeared on the water.
Habit is a terrible thing, and now they have become accustomed to this.
A few people were riding down the water in a small motorboat, which was comparable to the one in the original novel. The small bamboo rows are much better.
This cave is very wide, and it is more suitable to be called a deep stream than a river.
It is one meter lower than the ground, and the water is about 1 meter deep. It is more than three meters long. The water flow is very slow but not flat. Under the light of the wolf-eye flashlight, it is obvious that there are many differences in the depth. It is surrounded by lava rocks that are thousands of years old.
In addition to the gurgling water of the water. sound and motor sound, there was no other sound, and the entire cave was unusually quiet.
Hu Bayi fixed a strong searchlight on the bow of the ship. This kind of light consumed too much power, so he turned it on and off every one or two minutes in order to see clearly the situation in the cave ahead.
Lin Ruoyan put his hand into the water and tried it. The water temperature was bitingly cold. In Yunnan, which is like spring all year round, the temperature was a bit too cold.
Xue Liyang said: "Maybe there is snow water seeping down from the rocks at the top of Zhelong Mountain. In addition, the temperature difference between the cave and the outside is too big, and the human body will have misconceptions. Once it adapts, it will not I feel so cold."
As soon as she finished saying this, she noticed that the speed of the small motorboat, which was originally moving at a constant speed, suddenly became much faster than before.
Hu Bayi also quickly turned on the searchlight fixed on the bow of the boat. At this time, the river was already tilting downward and curving.
I could only see from a distance that the water channel in front widened and flowed into what looked like the mouth of a huge beast in the distance.
The huge beast's mouth looks like a roaring tiger, or like a lion with its mouth wide open. Several people were shocked.
Why haven’t I heard the proprietress of the inn mention such obvious features? Did they go into the wrong hole?
They were getting closer and closer to the beast's mouth. Through the searchlight fixed on the bow of the ship, it was obvious that there were countless ancient human figurines hanging behind the beast's mouth.
But the corpses the landlady said were piled up on both sides of the river?
They couldn't think too much at this time. The water flow became faster and faster, taking them directly into the beast's mouth.
