"Those people are really not things, why destroy them all!"

Professor Qi looked at a set of terracotta figurines, his body trembled with anger, although it is too cruel to make terracotta figurines from living people, but this is also a part of history, which is very helpful for the study of ancient history, besides, what is the point of breaking the terracotta figurines like this?

Mencius ignored Professor Qi's anger, and he observed the face of a terracotta figurine, whose expression was very painful, indicating that the person was still alive when it was fired.

Professor Qiu was very surprised when he saw it: "How can there be living people who are willingly fired into terracotta figurines, and the key body has not yet been distorted, it is hard to imagine how much perseverance they need." ”

Dajun said: "This is not difficult to explain, as far as I know, there are many secret methods that can make a person's body immobile. ”

The army's statement was accepted by everyone, but even so, judging from the facial expressions of the figurines, their pain should have been unshielded at that time, and it was terrifying to think about.

Now was not the time to study the figurines, and the group continued to move along the cave.

I don't know how the cave was formed, but it is getting more and more open, and it is getting more and more humid, compared to the ground, it is almost a heaven and an underground.

"Is there an underground river down there?" Professor Qi guessed.

Meng Zitao replied: "There should be, since it is called the 'Land of Hope', there will definitely be a water source." Now that the air is getting wetter, it should be not far from the water source. ”

Everyone continued to move forward, and sure enough, it was in line with Meng Zitao's guess, and a moment later, an underground river appeared in front of them.

After being in the desert for several days, the clear underground river in front of them was like encountering a heavenly sound, and Professor Qi and the others couldn't help but want to wash.

"Don't go over!"

Meng Zitao suddenly spoke, and everyone quickly stopped and looked at Meng Zitao.

Meng Zitao pointed to the bank of the river not far away: "Look there. ”

Everyone looked in the direction pointed by Meng Zitao and found that there was a shoe there, and there was a sole of foot in the key shoe!

This scene, while making Professor Qi and the others frightened, they were glad that Meng Zitao called in time, otherwise would they be like the owner of that foot?

"Team Meng, what should we do, we will definitely cross the river. Professor Qiu said.

There was a cave in the middle of the cave with a flowing underground river, and there was a stone gate on the other side of the river, which had been opened at this time, and it seemed to have been violently blown up with explosives.

The team will definitely have to enter the stone gate, but how to cross the river is a bit troublesome.

"Give me rope and jerky. ”

Meng Zitao asked for hemp rope and dried meat from the army, and prepared to make a simple fishing rod to test it.

"Wow Wow ......"

Suddenly, the cry of a child was heard not far away, and everyone was startled, how could there be children in such a place?

The child's crying stopped after a while, and the army asked Mencius if he wanted to go over and have a look.

Meng Zitao said: "Let me go, you are here to protect everyone." ”

The army nodded in agreement.

Meng Zitao cautiously walked in the direction where the cry came from, and just a few steps away, the baby's cry sounded again, but what kind of hearing did Meng Zitao have, how could he not distinguish the authenticity of the voice.

Meng Zitao thought about it, what kind of fierce beast sounds like a baby, and can eat people. It was found that there are many such creatures in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas", and often "their sounds are like babies" and "are cannibals" are closely related, such as the nine-tailed fox, nephew, etc., the sound is like a baby, and they are all cannibals.

Why do these beasts sound like babies? People are always attracted by the cry of a baby and want to see what it is, thinking it is a child, but they don't know that it is a beast. And often these beasts learn to scream in order to eat people.

Meng Zitao walked to the bank of the river, and just squatted down, when suddenly a large canine-sized fish jumped out of the water, opened its mouth, and bit at Meng Zitao.

Meng Zitao was slightly stunned, it was really too strange for this fish to look like, it had the body of a fish, the head of a dog, and Meng Zitao had never seen such a thing.

Distracted, Meng Zitao's reaction was particularly fast, his body moved to the side, his right hand pulled out the cicada wing sword, and slashed at the body of the fish, the strange fish still flew forward for a distance according to inertia, and then fell to the ground and turned into two, and the blood flowed all over the ground.

What happened to Meng Zitao fell into everyone's eyes, everything was only in the blink of an eye, if Meng Zitao was slow, he was likely to be bitten by a strange fish, and they all pinched a cold sweat for him.

Meng Zitao observed the fish corpse, and immediately thought of the name of this thing, which was clearly the sushi described in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas".

Meng Zitao brought the fish carcass back to the team, and everyone was amazed when they saw it, especially Professor Qiu, who was very excited to see the fish carcass as an expert on animals and plants, and quickly recognized the species.

"Is this the bass fish mentioned in the Classic of Mountains and Seas?" Professor Qiu was a little surprised.

Meng Zitao nodded, and listened to Professor Qiu say: "But there is no mention of this thing eating people in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas". ”

"There is a saying that the Classic of Mountains and Seas has paintings first, and then there are words. There was a 'mountain and sea map' that was circulated in the world. ”

Meng Zitao said: "For example, if modern people are asked to interpret a mural in the pre-Qin period, they will definitely not make up a story for no reason, but will cite scriptures and refer to the information. But in fact, the mural is just a few simple lines, and it is also a matter of life, and we may take it as a far-fetched proof of the existence of some kind of legend. ”

"To get back to the point, it is precisely because the version of the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" that is now circulating may be different from the original version, and some errors are inevitable. What's more, animals and plants will evolve, maybe the bass didn't eat people before, but now they do?"

Professor Qiu nodded, agreeing with Mencius's explanation.

For everyone, the most important thing now is how to cross the river, after finding a man-eating bass fish, no one knows if there will be a second or third in it.

So, according to the original plan, Meng Zitao lured him with jerky, but after waiting for more than ten minutes, the river was calm, and the jerky was only soaked in water, and no traces of being eaten by anything were found.

It seems that there should be no carnivores in the river, but it is still sloppy, and no one knows what creatures are at the bottom of the river.

So, everyone began to erect a zipline on the river surface, because the preparation was sufficient, and the river surface was only more than ten meters, it was still very easy to set up temporarily.

The process of passing through the river was relatively calm, and there was no danger, and before leaving, Meng Zitao had a heart and put away the zipline.

Walking into the stone gate, there was a passage down, everyone walked for three or four minutes, and suddenly found several corpses, all of them died in the shootout, and I don't know whose people and horses were.

After a brief check-in, everyone moved on. After walking for another two or three minutes, I finally saw the exit ahead.

Suddenly, everyone heard the sound of "Knock Knock!", which was not very clear, but it was very penetrating, directly through everyone's eardrums, and reached the brain.

Meng Zitao didn't know how to describe this voice, he only felt a nameless anger rushing out of his stomach, as if he was on the battlefield, surrounded by enemies, he wanted to draw his sword and destroy the enemy!

Meng Zitao reacted immediately, and secretly shouted: "Not good!" and quickly concentrated his mind and swept away that thought.

He turned his head and shone his flashlight at the others, and found that even the army had anger on their faces, not to mention the others, and one of the staff members had even taken a shovel out of his bag.

Seeing this, Meng Zitao hurriedly took measures to wake everyone up, and everyone was in pain, and they all came to their senses, with a blank face, not knowing what was going on.

"What happened just now?" asked Professor Qi.

"You must have heard something. Meng Zitao asked rhetorically.

Dajun said: "I heard a voice just now, and then I felt very uncomfortable in my heart, thinking of those comrades who had died in the past, and my heart was extremely angry, and I had an urge to kill. ”

"Me too, I thought of something infuriating, what the hell is going on!" Professor Qiu asked strangely, rubbing his temples.

Meng Zitao said: "I don't know too much, but everyone try to be careful, the voice just now is very strange, it will cause human anger emotions, confusion in thinking, and eventually cause tragedy." ”

The staff who had already taken out the shovel just now blushed, and hurriedly put the shovel back in his bag, if it wasn't for Meng Zitao's timely interruption, he would have fallen into an angry mood just now, and he would have taken out the shovel to hurt the people around him, and he would have been hurt by the people around him, and he didn't know how to die when he died.

Professor Qi frowned and said, "This is incredible, it's just a sound, it can have such a big impact on people?"

This is the case, no matter how difficult Professor Qi is to accept it, he can't deny that he has fallen into anger just now, but this situation is beyond his worldview, and he can't accept it in his heart for a while.

"Rare and weird!"

Meng Zitao muttered in his heart, in fact, the experiment of sound affecting emotions existed during World War II, for example, the German torture of prisoners is to impose noise coercion on prisoners, and torture prisoners until they collapse. This thing is very abstract, but in fact, the principle is to use noise to interfere with the nerves of the human brain, resulting in the stimulation of emotions, and to put it simply, it is to stimulate a person's subconscious.

Of course, the sound of a bell just now can have such a big impact, it is indeed magical, but there are many things in the world that cannot be explained, and I don't even know what the principle is, and it is good that there is a principle that can be explained.

Meng Zitao said: "The sound just now came from outside the passage, we must be careful for a while, I hope you will pay attention to the surrounding situation, and remind you in time if you find something wrong." ”

Everyone said they knew, and then moved on.

When everyone walked out of the aisle, many people's faces showed shock, and even their eyes were about to be exposed......
