Or even used things like microorganisms to make mechanisms, then the things they might have to face later were products of current technology.

Had the wisdom of the ancients already reached this level at that time?

Everyone's eyes were full of disbelief; they did not want to get such an answer.

And at the next moment, Zhang Lin smiled and said, "In fact, you can recall that when the live stream first started, what you saw in the cave; through the live stream playback provided by the officials, you should have seen those human figurines fall, and then the water-pig bees that flew out from inside; have you ever thought about why such things appeared in that place?"

"If piranhas appeared, it wouldn't be strange, but water-pig bees appearing there was illogical in itself."

Zhang Lin raised this question, and everyone fell into deep thought.

At first, they did not pay attention to those human figurines; in their view, as long as they entered this Southern Frontier Insect Valley, since Zhang Lin had already said that it contained certain dangers.

And this danger was no less than the Ancient City of Jingjue, then these water-pig bees or piranhas were all within the danger.

If there were no danger, that would be the biggest oddity; conversely, these human figurines were just one of the sacrifices at the time; even if Zhang Lin did not explain it himself, they could brain-fill such an answer themselves.

And at the next moment, Zhang Lin did not wait for everyone to answer or have any other questions, and said directly, "I think you must think that these water-pig bees were definitely contained on the human figurines and were parasites that grew over time, right?"

"And that the human figurine itself was a sacrifice used by King Xian for burial, is that right?"

Everyone nodded subconsciously, but they now also knew in their hearts that whenever Zhang Lin spoke in this way, there must be other answers to the questions Zhang Lin raised.

But everyone was still constantly brain-filling in their hearts what other answers could there be to this matter?

Could it be even more shocking than the appearance of these water-pig bees?

In itself, it was not strange at all for ancient tombs to have burial pits, or even large quantities of burial human figurines; they would only accept this point with peace of mind.

Or rather, if an ancient emperor had no buried corpses, that would be strange; an emperor's heart was more ruthless than anyone else's, and he did not treat the lives of ordinary people as lives.

In fact, thinking about Wang Canghai, one would understand this point; if one did not consider the premise of the existence of eternal life, this Wang Canghai was just a feng shui master.

A feng shui master could already do this, so since he was an emperor, even if he was just a self-proclaimed grass-roots emperor, they emerged one after another in ancient times.

In five thousand years, the number was not a thousand, but there were eight hundred; however, such people, under the premise of mastering a small part of power, would always have a group of loyal supporters.

This led to them being more ruthless than anyone else; compared to those more famous emperors, that is, those who had clear records in history books, they cared even less about the lives of the common people.

So these book friends could not think of any other explanation.

At the next moment, Zhang Lin sighed slowly and said, "In fact, you all misunderstood; these human figurines were not burial objects, nor were they some torture instruments, and these water-pig bees were not parasites that grew on the human figurines later; this is a kind of 'Gu', a thing unique to the Southern Frontier!"

Gu?

Everyone was instilled with an unfamiliar term again.

Zhang Lin waved his hand and said, "Maybe you don't understand it this way, so let's change the way; Gu is the precursor to Gu poison!"

"Speaking of Gu art, you shouldn't be unfamiliar with it, right?"

Everyone gasped again; they were naturally not unfamiliar with Gu art.

This was considered a unique thing in the Southern Frontier, using many insects to cast Gu on people, and some even made living people into Gu poison; some of these things were real.

Some could only be seen in novels or movies!
