Chapter 107

"！！！！"

Several people were already guarding against those dozens of corpses, and at this moment, seeing this situation, they were all shocked.

Without thinking much, at this moment, the few people close to the corpses were all first-rate experts who had been famous in the Jianghu for a long time, and they all reacted instinctively!

Lao Qifeng secretly operated true energy, and a "Dragon Fighting in the Wild" was ready to go.

Several other experts also raised their weapons and operated their true energy, wanting to take advantage of the fact that these witchcraft insects had not crawled out, and destroy them together with the corpses.

Just when several people were about to make a move, they saw a figure appear in front of them in an instant and waved his hand.

"Everyone, wait a moment," Li Miao said.

Several people were blocked for a moment, and their moves were a beat slow, but they saw those corpses raise their heads and have no movement, so they stopped.

"Leader Liu, you step down from the platform first," he said to the Kong Dong sect leader.

The Kong Dong sect leader obeyed and retracted the foot that stepped onto the platform.

As soon as he came down, the heads of those corpses slowly drooped.

"Hero Li, this is?" Lao Qifeng asked.

Li Miao didn't pay attention to him first, and went up to pinch the face of a corpse, lifted it up, and looked at it carefully.

Afterwards, in the shocked eyes of everyone, he reached two fingers into the holes on the corpse's face and pinched out a "hissing" insect.

Everyone felt their hair stand on end, and a few who had little Jianghu experience almost vomited, feeling their stomachs churning.

"Oh, these things are called 'Pupa Girls'," Li Miao looked for a while, and then said indifferently.

He held the insect in his palm, rubbed it a few times, and it turned into a pile of powder, which he sprinkled on the ground.

"Pupa... Pupa Girl?" Lao Qifeng asked.

"Oh, it's actually the same nature as the soldiers and concubines who were buried with the big figures when they were buried. They are both the guards of the mausoleum and the living sacrifices of these big figures," Li Miao replied.

"Choose a bean-card girl of twelve or thirteen, peel off the skin and flesh of the five senses, and 'raise' various witchcraft insects in the body while still alive, and use soup medicine to hang her life every day."

"Let her taste the pain of witchcraft insects nesting, preying, and gnawing on flesh and blood in her body in a state of loss of five senses. After three years, the dead are not 'pious' enough to the Miao King, and the living are qualified 'Pupa Girls'."

Li Miao had been collecting witchcraft arts for many years for Xiaosi. He had seen the origin of this "Pupa Girl" by accident. Because it was too cruel and strange, it left a deep impression.

At this moment, he didn't describe any details, just said it roughly, and everyone present felt a little unbearable.

"So... so cruel..." Yin Minjun murmured.

Li Miao turned his head and glanced at her: "This hasn't reached the main point yet."

"When the 'Pupa Girl' is refined, the burial begins."

"These 'Pupa Girls' who have lost their five senses are placed kneeling in front of the Miao King's coffin, and the tomb is sealed."

"After they are chosen, someone will tell them that this is a ritual for the Miao King's resurrection. As long as they are pious enough, the Miao King will wake up in their prayers, restore their five senses, and give blessings to them and their families."

"So, in this empty tomb, these 'Pupa Girls' silently prayed in their hearts while enduring the pain of a thousand cuts in their bodies."

"Losing their five senses, they don't know the time, don't know if the companions around them are still alive, and don't know how many holes have been broken in their bodies by witchcraft insects. All that remains is false hope and endless pain."

"Until they die."

Li Miao's flat voice echoed in the empty hall, but for a moment no one responded.

Everyone has seen life and death, but killing is just a point of the head; they have really never seen such a cruel and inhuman evil act, and for a moment they were choked and couldn't speak.

After a while, Lao Qifeng calmed down first and said to Li Miao: "Hero Li, what's going on with these corpses raising their heads? I've seen it, and corpse oil has condensed on the corpses; they should be dead."

"They are dead, but the witchcraft insects in their bodies are selected by secret methods," Li Miao said.

"There are many varieties, forming a set of patterns that can eat each other and circulate on their own in these corpses, and can survive for a hundred years in a state of suspended animation."

"There should be a mechanism set up on this platform where the coffin is placed. As long as someone steps on it, it will release some kind of medicine, causing the witchcraft insects in the corpses to wake up and drive the corpses to make movements."

"If the Leader Liu had stepped on it just now, these witchcraft insects would have woken up together, broken through the corpses, and attacked all living things. Having not eaten for a hundred years, I think these witchcraft insects are very hungry."

"And if several experts attacked these corpses just now, if they couldn't crush all the corpses in an instant, the smell emitted by the witchcraft insect corpses would also wake up all the witchcraft insects in other corpses."

Hearing Li Miao's words, several people also understood that they had walked through the gate of hell just now, and only felt a chill.

Witchcraft is indeed strange and hard to guard against; just now one witchcraft insect harmed the life of a second-rate expert. If the witchcraft insects in these dozens of corpses all ran out, I don't know how many people present could survive.

It's just that there is no way back, and the hall is empty. If you don't explore this coffin, how can you find clues to the way out?

Li Miao smiled: "The Miao region is isolated from the Central Plains; the Jianghu doesn't understand witchcraft, and witchcraft doesn't understand how to guard against Wu Gong."

"Don't step on this platform, right?"

After speaking, Li Miao pulled up from the ground, jumped a zhang high, and like a leaf, swayed in the air, landing on the coffin hanging by iron chains.

"Elder Yin, lend me your sword," Li Miao said.

Yin Minjun heard this, took off her sword, and threw it to Li Miao.

Li Miao took the sword and drew it from its sheath.

Pretending to use all his strength, he cut off an iron chain binding the coffin with one sword.

"Fix the iron chain, don't let it fall on the platform," Li Miao said, and the sword edge picked, throwing the iron chain to the side.

Lao Qifeng stepped forward to catch the iron chain and glanced at the break, but he was shocked.

This iron chain is composed of rings as thick as two fingers, and Li Miao could cut it off with one sword.

This sword technique is afraid that it is close to the top level. It seems that the ordinary hard-body technique he said is hiding his clumsiness. This sword technique alone is enough to compete with him.

He didn't know that Li Miao spent more effort in controlling the strength of this sword than in drawing the sword.

It's actually quite difficult for Li Miao to pretend to be at Lao Qifeng's level.

Clang!

Clang!

Clang!

In less than a moment, the iron chains binding the coffin fell one after another, were caught by Lao Qifeng, and placed aside.

Li Miao also appropriately put on an appearance of uneven breath, adjusted his breath for a while, and raised his hand to lift the coffin lid.

"Hmm?" He let out a light sound.

"How is it?" Lao Qifeng asked eagerly.

"Empty," Li Miao said.
