Chapter 97: Stone Coffin

Boom!

A crisp sound, and the head shattered in response.

Yellow and white matter splashed out, sprinkling on the corners of the clothes of the people around.

Li Miao looked at the headless corpse, secretly thinking in his heart.

This was not the kind of Gu soldier with thick skin and flesh of the Ming Cult, but an instinctive reaction of the host to forage after the Gu insect entered the body. He only used second-rate strength just now, which was testing the depth.

Gu controlling corpses is not something any corpse can do, nor can any Gu insect do it.

Gu has mothers and children; as long as the materials are sufficient, there are many child Gu, but the mother Gu is extremely precious, and generally a great witch can only have two or three. Only the mother Gu has this spirituality and ability to control the host to forage.

The situation just now was that when Lao Qifeng pushed open the stone door, a Gu insect crawled out from the gap along the ground. It was covered by the sound of the stone door opening, and because the light was dim, it was not discovered by everyone.

Crawling along the ground, it climbed onto the disciple’s ankle and drilled into the flesh and blood.

The Qingcheng Sect leader reacted and knew that he had been saved by Li Miao just now, and at this moment he hurriedly spoke.

"Thank you, Hero Li, for saving me."

Li Miao waved his hand, indicating that there was no need to say more.

Lao Qifeng spoke: "Hero Li, the situation has clearly lost control now, I’m afraid it is the witchcraft of the Miao border, our Wu Gong is high, but there will be life worries."

"Now, I have to be offensive."

He looked at Li Miao and said in a deep voice: "When you opened the stone wall, I vaguely felt something was wrong."

"This place was excavated by the grave robbers of the Banshan Sect. They could open that stone wall, I am not surprised, but Hero Li is a Paojianghu wanderer, where did you learn the art of mechanisms?"

"And Hero Li’s Wu Gong is not outstanding among us. Just now, Qingcheng Sect leader Hao couldn't react, how could you be prophetic and appear on the side in advance to save him?"

Lao Qifeng turned his head to look at Yin Minjun: "Elder Yin, your Hengshan Sect does not participate in this matter, and changed these two friends to come in, the matter is already suspicious."

"If the situation is generous, I will not brush the face of the Hengshan Sect and force to ask clearly."

"But now, I have to ask you to explain."

The firelight flickered, casting deep shadows on everyone’s faces, vaguely surrounding Li Miao, Yongjie, and Yin Minjun.

Qingcheng Sect leader Hao originally wanted to walk near Li Miao to formally thank him, but at this moment he stopped his steps, staring at Li Miao, not saying a word.

Life and death are at stake, and there is no basis for trust between each other, so at this moment, suspicion arises and it is difficult to suppress.

Just when this strange silence spread, and Yin Minjun held the sword hilt, and Yongjie also secretly clenched his fists, Li Miao sneered.

"They all say the Beggar Sect has a big family and a big business, and has assets in all walks of life, but I didn't expect Leader Lao to also take on the job of a storyteller."

"You have seen little, so you think the world is full of conspiracies, isn't it ridiculous?"

"You!" Lao Qifeng was topped back so nakedly, and his face couldn't hold it.

"First, there are few mechanism arts, but not none, and they are not lost. Mo family, Tang Men, Banshan and Xieling all have inheritances. It is not strange to get one or two lost secret manuals occasionally, right?"

"Second, I know you haven't seen much witchcraft, but I have. At this moment in the Miao King’s tomb, is it difficult to guess that it is Gu insects? Seeing this friend injured and being vigilant, saving Leader Hao, is it also a mistake?"

"Third." Li Miao scanned the people around.

"I am the one who came later, don't make it seem like I tricked you all in."

"Now there is no way back, and I don't know how many mechanisms and Gu insects are ahead, only I know a little bit. Are you sure... you want to turn against me at this time?"

As soon as this was said, the vague hostility of the crowd greatly reduced.

Right, no matter how strange Li Miao is, he still has to rely on him to deal with mechanisms and guard against Gu insects. Turning against him now, the chance of surviving will become smaller.

Lao Qifeng was silent for a long while, and also said a sorry to Li Miao in a low voice, and turned to push the stone door slowly.

Everyone walked into the door together, shocked for a while, and didn't speak.

Inside this stone door, it was a spacious hall of a hundred feet!

I saw that in this hall, there were carved corridors and painted pillars, rotten silk hanging on the four walls, and ancient and strange patterns carved on the walls.

And in the center of the hall, there was a huge circular platform, with a huge stone coffin placed in the middle, bound with iron chains as thick as arms, and nine chains hanging from the top, hanging around the stone coffin, hanging it in mid-air.

And on the ground under the stone coffin, dozens of figures in ancient and gorgeous clothes were kneeling.

Everyone was silent for a long while, and Lao Qifeng still spoke loudly: "Is it a Miao sacrifice?"

"We broke into this place by mistake, offended the ancestors' mausoleum, and we are going out, can you point the way?"

The sound echoed in the empty hall for a long time, and gradually dissipated.

Those figures did not react at all.

Lao Qifeng and several experts with the most outstanding Wu Gong secretly guarded, and walked forward carefully, approaching a figure.

The man had a light veil on his head, his face drooping, and he had no movement.

The Qingcheng Sect leader drew his sword, picked the veil lightly, and lifted the man’s chin, wanting to see if it was a living person.

After seeing her face, several people gasped in unison!

Because she was a young girl, but the flesh and blood on her eyes, nose, mouth, and ears were cruelly scraped off, leaving only a few black holes on it, simply like a ghost!

Ferocious scars crisscrossed her cheeks, sewn with thick black cotton thread. And from the wound, a few tentacles protruded, shaking gently.

Her chin and fingers vaguely condensed some corpse oil. This person had clearly been dead for a long time, but the corpse had not decayed at all, and was still lifelike.

"Don't move these corpses, look at the coffin."

Lao Qifeng gritted his teeth.

The situation is strange, but there is no way back, so I can only bite the bullet and explore.

Several people carefully bypassed the kneeling corpses around, and finally approached the platform where the stone coffin was placed.

Lao Qifeng saw that those corpses did not produce abnormalities, and breathed a long sigh of relief in his heart.

Judging from the tentacles protruding from the corpse’s wounds, there were eight out of ten Gu insects stored in the body, and they were still alive. There were dozens of such corpses around, if these Gu insects were disturbed, I am afraid it would be difficult to escape.

I only hope that the clue to go out is on the stone coffin in front of me.

Just when Lao Qifeng was secretly thinking, the Kongtong Sect leader took a step onto the platform.

Slap.

His Wu Gong was deep, and at this moment he operated the light-body technique, and the footsteps were inaudible.

But with this tiny footstep, "creak creak" sounds suddenly sounded all around.

Lao Qifeng turned his head abruptly, his pupils shrank.

I saw that all the dozens of kneeling corpses around actually raised their heads, and the black holes on their faces looked at several people.
