We didn't have time to think too much, as the current rushed the bamboo raft towards the animal gate in the cave.
The natural stone beads hanging in the air were located very low.
We quickly leaned down and clung to the bamboo raft to avoid the stone beads in the middle.
Just when the bamboo raft was about to float inside, the strong searchlight on the front of the bamboo raft flashed twice and then stopped lighting up.
It was probably because the battery had run out of power after being used continuously for too long.
I thought to myself: "Oops, I ran out of battery at this time.
The cave in front is very weird.
Don't be careless here.
You must change the battery first to avoid hitting rocks and capsizing after entering."
I raised my fists to the fat man and Shiry Yang behind me and made a stop gesture, asking them to help me stop the bamboo raft at the entrance of the cave.
Then I inserted the bamboo pole in my hand into the water as a brake and stopped the bamboo raft.
Fortunately, the water flow here is slow, otherwise only one bamboo pole would not be able to support the weight of the entire bamboo raft.
I replaced the battery of the strong-light searchlight and turned it on again.
Under the bright orange light beam, I could see the natural animal head formed by the lava, like a strange-shaped dragon head.
Its shape was blurred and could not be seen.
Check whether there are any traces of artificial processing.
The fat man patted my shoulder from behind and signaled that they had removed the balance pole, so I also pulled the front bamboo pole out of the water.
The bamboo raft followed the current and sailed into the cave from this weird and ugly dragon's mouth.
This section of the river is extremely narrow, but very deep, and goes straight forward.
We poked the stones on the cave wall with bamboo poles to slow down the bamboo raft, and carefully observed the stone figurines hanging upside down in the cave.
These stone figurines all put their hands behind their backs, posing in a tied posture.
Due to the damp and cold underground environment, the surface of the stone figurines has turned gray-brown, and the outline of their facial features is completely blurred.
It seems that there is a layer of "瘘" growing on the surface. "1.
From the appearance, it is basically impossible to distinguish the male and female faces of the stone figurines.
Just looking at the stature, they range from tall to short, fat and thin.
It seems that in addition to the middle-aged people, there are also some young people who have not yet grown up, and they are not According to the unified standards, it is completely different from the human figurines buried with them in the Qin and Han Dynasties, which were all sergeants and opera figurines.
On the top of the cave, there are green copper chains hanging these stone figurines on both sides.
Some of the chains have fallen off, and some are empty.
It may be that many of the stone figurines have fallen into the water over the years.
The stone figurines are like hanged ghosts, hanging less than a foot away from the water.
In this dark and gloomy cave, seeing these guys suddenly, how can you not be frightened?
Shiryy Yang asked us to stop the bamboo raft first.
Beside the waterway, there was a stone figurine that fell off a copper chain and fell to the ground.
Shiryy Yang pointed at the stone figurine and said: "Although these stone figurines are vague in appearance, they are from the beginning."
The outline of the suit looks a bit like that of the Han Dynasty.
I'll go down and take a look."
He then adjusted the headlight circle of his mountaineering helmet to be more focused, then jumped off the bamboo raft and squatted down to look at the stone figurines on the ground.
I reminded Shiry Yang: "Wear gloves, be careful there are bacteria on them.
If you are infected by bacteria, even if you do 10,000 times of artificial respiration, it will not save you."
Shirey Yang waved her hand and asked Fatty and I not to distract her.
She seemed to have found something on the stone figurine.
She put on rubber gloves and scratched twice on the stone figurine with a paratrooper knife, and then turned it upside down.
The paratrooper raised his knife in front of his eyes, took a look, sniffed it gently with his nose, turned to us and said, "This humanoid figurine doesn't seem to be made of stone."
The fat man wondered: "If it's not stone, can it be made of mud?"
I thought of the scene on the road along the Lancang River.

Sitting on a bamboo raft, I said to Shiry Yang: "So it was made by a living person.
Use a knife to cut a part of it and see what's inside."
That human skin map records It is clear that there are several burial pits near the tomb of King Xian, but the specific location is not marked.
Maybe this Longkou Cave is one of the burial pits.”
Shiry Yang used a paratrooper knife to cut off a small piece of the leg of the human figurine.
Sure enough, it was the same as what he saw on the road.
Although the outer skin of the human figurine was tough, it only had a thin shell, and the inside was full of rotten dead maggots.
When Shiry Yang saw the dried maggots, he couldn't help but frowned, and used a paratrooper's knife to poke two holes in the chest of the figurine.
The same was true inside, full of dead insects and insect eggs.
Shiry Yang said to me and the fat man: "It doesn't look like a burial pit, but it is certain that these figurines are made of living people, and they must be related to King Xian.
This should be the period of King Xian, an ancient and evil place in southern Yunnan.
Another notorious evil technique."
Except for more than a hundred human figurines and chains, the cave is full of rugged and unusually shaped rocks.
No more extraneous things were found, so Shiry Yang returned to the bamboo raft and we continued slowly along the river in the cave. go ahead.
While I was controlling the bamboo raft, I asked Shiry Yang where he could tell that these figurines were made of living people, and how he could be sure that they were related to King Xian's evil technique.
On the way to Yunnan, in order to get more information, Shiry Yang worked hard.
Before departure, he searched all the historical materials he could find in Beijing and kept reading along the way.
A European scholar once said that under every tombstone is a novel, and the tombs of some important figures in history contain a large amount of historical information at that time.
The tombs of kings can be said to be the crystallization of social economy, culture, religion and other aspects at that time.
The more you know about these historical materials, the easier you will be at fighting.
Therefore, the most outstanding tomb robbers in history are all knowledgeable in the past and present without exception. people.
There are many Xianwangs in Chinese history, but they are not from the same era.
Except for the Xianwang of the Dian Kingdom, the other Xianwangs are not in Yunnan.
Even the peasant uprising army of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom established their country in Tianjing.
He once had a title of King Xian, and in the Warring States and Five Dynasties periods, he had the title of King Xian.
Just like the title of Zhongshan in history, it has also appeared in history as the title of the country and the title of the king, but those kings presented are not related to each other.
The King Xian we are about to attack is a shaman king from the ancient Yunnan period.
His evil spells use the souls of the dead as the medium, and the greater the number of wronged souls, the more powerful this evil spell will be.
There are many processes and methods for using the dead to create "evil".
The strange ways of death and the degree of transformation of these living figurines in the cave are consistent with the methods used to sacrifice the king.
This shows that this should be a secret place where evil spirits were practiced in ancient times.
Shiry Yang judged that this river that passes through the mountain should have been built when King Xian was building the tomb.
Natural caves were used to repair and dredge the tomb with manpower in order to transport materials for the construction of the tomb.
Water transportation here should be the most appropriate shortcut.
The dead people who were made to look like human figurines in the cave were probably the slaves and craftsmen who built the king's tomb.
In order to keep the secret of King Xian's tomb, these people were buried after the construction was completed or after the body of King Xian was collected.
Xian Wang’s loyal men, all their bodies They were tied tightly, forced to swallow a kind of "Yin", and the seven orifices of the human body were sealed, and then hung in the cave with large chains and suffocated to death.
Firstly, they could keep the secrets in the king's tomb, and secondly, they could use them to hide the secrets in the king's tomb.
The secret waterway scares away outsiders who stray into it.
The so-called Yin Yin is a pill necessary to perform certain kinds of Yin techniques.
After being swallowed by a living person, it will parasitize and lay eggs in the body.
It only takes about three to five days for the flesh, blood and internal organs in the human body to become nutrients for the larvae.
And filled it in instead.
Due to rapid loss of moisture in a short period of time, human skin will quickly dry up and become as hard as tree bark and stone shells.
The insect eggs will not turn into larvae if they are not exposed to the air.

They will always maintain a state of hibernation.
In a cool environment, they can last for thousands of years. above.
So to this day, when human skin is cut open, countless live "wormy" larvae like fat maggots may immediately appear inside, but depending on the degree of preservation, it may also be filled with long-dried insect eggs.
Since there are relatively few records of the art of killing in various classics, including unofficial histories, Shiry Yang has only found this information these days.
As for the purpose of using living people as insect pupae, and what are the uses of these insects, all of this is No way of knowing.
Not only are there a large number of human figurines in Zhelong Mountain, but there should also be several in nearby mountainous areas.
The human figurine we met on the cliff road by the river may have fallen to the road due to the erosion of the rain, causing the rock to collapse.
Although King Xian ruled only a corner of southern Xinjiang, from the large number of slaves who were made into human figurines, we can get a glimpse of the cruelty and ruthlessness of King Xian in ancient Western Yunnan under his rule.
After listening to Shiry Yang's analysis, both Fatty and I felt like we had goosebumps on our bodies.
At first we thought they were clay statues like the Terracotta Warriors, but it turned out they were made by real people.
I couldn't help but look back at those hanging ghosts.
The same human figurines have long since disappeared into the dark cave behind them and can never be seen again.
The more I thought about it, the more cruel I felt, and I couldn't help cursing: "Damn these ancient princes, they really don't treat people as human beings.
In the eyes of the nobles, those slaves are not even as good as cattle and horses.
A fat man with a slim body like you, If you become a slave, you will definitely be able to serve as a sacrificial head in ancient times."
The fat man in the middle of the bamboo raft was playing with the extinguished spotlight on his helmet.
After taking a few shots, he finally returned to normal.
When he heard me talking about him, he said to me: "Fuck you, Old Hu, for what you said."
It fully exposes your true face of being ignorant and ignorant.
As far as I know, in ancient times, people were proud to be chosen as a burial victim or a sacrifice.
It was a supreme honor for a burial victim.
The selection is extremely strict, with three generations of ancestry being checked, and there is no problem at all in terms of political appearance.
Many people can’t get in line even if they write bloody applications.
It’s most suitable for a guy like you who pretends to be active.
You must be very energetic at that time. , jumping on his feet and shouting, use me to sacrifice to the sky, I am the most suitable to light the sky lantern, let the people of the motherland wait for my good news, for the sake of victory, use me to light the lantern."
I was furious when I heard that Fatty's grandson was too wicked: "I'm not as fat as you, how can I be suitable for lighting sky lanterns, you?"
Shiry Yang interrupted Fatty and I: "Are you two finished?
Why did you get into a quarrel while talking?
Did you find anything wrong?
This waterway is not at all like what the proprietress of Caiyun Inn described."
The fat man said: "The boss lady didn't come in personally.
Didn't she also listen to what the stone quarry workers said?
There are inevitably some errors.
We don't need to be suspicious."
I said to Shiry Yang and the fat man: "Maybe the boss lady was wrong.
The water flow in the section of the river we passed earlier was very fast.
It may be related to the heavy rains in the past few days.
The river is very wide, maybe it connects the two rivers.
Together.
We were only focused on controlling the balance of the bamboo raft.
The illumination angle of the searchlight was very small and the field of view was limited, so we might have gone astray."
The fat man said anxiously: "That's troublesome.
Why don't we turn around and go back to find the way?
Don't get into the maze like we were in the spider's nest last time and be unable to get out in the end.
We don't bring much dry food."

I said to the fat man: "If it is really just a fork in the river, don't worry.
These water flows in one direction, and will eventually pass through Zhelong Mountain and merge into the Snake River Valley, so there will definitely be no problem of getting lost." .
And this river is very straight, and it is obviously artificially processed.
As Shiry Yang said, it may be a waterway for transporting materials when building the king's tomb.
It is definitely right to go down here. " Shiry Yang said: "Old Hu is right.
In ancient times, rivers were used to transport stones when building large tombs.
The craftsmen who built the Qin Mausoleum in those days would sing: Take the stone from the mouth of the sweet spring, and the Wei River will not flow.
From these two brief words In the sentence, you can imagine that the construction of the First Emperor's Mausoleum was so huge that the Wei River was blocked due to the transportation of stones. " The fat man said: "We saw the Weihe River last time we went to Shaanxi.
Compared with that big river, this place is just a sewer at most.
Compared with Qin Shihuang, King Xian is probably just a poor man from a small family.
Let's go and drain him.
Fighting, it’s a shame for him, oh what?”
The bamboo raft slowly going down the river suddenly seemed to have been scraped by something in the river.
It jolted violently, and then returned to normal.
However, there was a heavy clattering sound of heavy metal in the river.
The fat man and I Shiryy Yang and the three of them felt an ominous feeling in their hearts at the same time.
They were afraid that the raft might have hit a trap hidden in the river. 1.
It is a mildewy substance produced by rocks under special circumstances.
It is non-toxic
