Chapter 106

Bang!

A crisp sound, and the head shattered in response.

Yellow and white things splashed out, sprinkling on the corners of everyone's clothes around.

Li Miao looked at the headless corpse and thought to himself.

This is not the skin-tough and meat-thick insect soldier of the Ming Sect, but the instinctive reaction of the host to go out and forage after the witchcraft insect enters the body. He only used second-rate strength just now, which was testing the depth.

Witchcraft insect manipulation of corpses is not something that any corpse can do, nor can any witchcraft insect do it.

Witchcraft insects are divided into mother and child; child insects can be as many as there are materials, but mother insects are extremely precious, and generally, a great shaman can only have two or three. Only the mother insect has this spirituality and ability to control the host to forage.

The situation just now was that Lao Qifeng pushed open the stone door, and a witchcraft 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 noticed by everyone.

Crawling along the ground, it climbed onto the ankle of this disciple and burrowed into the flesh and blood.

The Qingcheng sect leader reacted, knowing that he had been saved by Li Miao just now, and at this moment hurriedly opened his mouth.

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

Li Miao waved his hand, signaling no need to say more.

Lao Qifeng opened his mouth and said: "Hero Li, the situation has obviously lost control now, I'm afraid it is the witchcraft of the Miao region at work; no matter how high our Wu Gong is, we will have life-threatening worries."

"At this moment, 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. I am not surprised that they can open that stone wall, but Hero Li, a Jianghu wanderer, where did you learn the art of mechanisms?"

"And, Hero Li's Wu Gong is not outstanding among us. Just now, the Qingcheng sect leader Hao couldn't react, how could you know in advance and appear on the side 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 changing these two friends to come in, the matter is already suspicious."

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

"But at this moment, I have to ask you to explain."

The fire flickered, casting deep shadows on everyone's faces, faintly surrounding Li Miao, Yong Jie, and Yin Minjun.

The Qingcheng sect leader Hao wanted to walk close to Li Miao and thank him formally, but at this moment he stopped, staring at Li Miao, not saying a word.

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

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

"They all say the Beggar Gang has a big family and a big business, and has assets in every industry; I didn't expect Leader Lao to also take on the job of a storyteller."

"You are ignorant, 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 for a moment.

"First, there are few mechanism arts, but they are not non-existent, nor are they lost. The Mohist, Tang Men, Banshan, and Xieling all have inheritances; occasionally getting one or two lost secret manuals is not a strange thing, 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 witchcraft at work? Seeing this friend injured and being vigilant, saving Leader Hao, is it also a mistake?"

"Third." Li Miao scanned everyone around.

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

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

As soon as these words were spoken, the faint hostility of everyone greatly reduced.

That's right, no matter how suspicious Li Miao is, he still has to rely on him to deal with mechanisms and guard against witchcraft insects. Turning against him now, the chance of surviving and going out will be even smaller.

Lao Qifeng was silent for a long while, and also said a low apology to Li Miao, turned around and pushed the stone door slowly.

Everyone walked into the door together, stunned for a moment, and didn't speak.

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

Only seeing that in this hall, there were carved corridors and painted pillars, decayed 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, intertwined 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 said loudly: "Is it a Miao sacrifice?"

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

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

Those dozens of figures did not have the slightest reaction.

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

That person's head was covered with light gauze, and his face was drooping, without any movement.

The Qingcheng sect leader drew his sword, gently picked off the veil, and lifted the person's chin, wanting to see if it was a living person.

After seeing her face, several people gasped in unison!

Just 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 dark holes on it, simply like a ghost!

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

Her chin and fingers were faintly condensed with some corpse oil; this person had clearly been dead for I don't know how long, but the corpse had not decayed at all, 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 he can only bite the bullet and explore.

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

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

Judging from the tentacles protruding from the corpse's wounds, there are eight out of ten witchcraft insects stored in the body, and they are still alive. There are dozens of such corpses around; if these witchcraft insects are disturbed, I am afraid it will 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 Kong Dong sect leader stepped onto the platform.

Slap.

His Wu Gong is deep, and at this moment he operated the light body technique, and this footstep was almost inaudible.

But with this trace of subtle footsteps, "creak, creak" sounds suddenly sounded all around.

Lao Qifeng turned his head suddenly, his pupils shrinking.

Only seeing those dozens of kneeling corpses all around, at this moment, all raised their heads, and the dark holes on their faces looked at several people.
