Chapter 729: The Statue of Chiyou

On the whole, although the skin man has no sexual characteristics, his facial features are soft, closer to women, his face is pale, his face is blush, and his slender eyebrows fly into his sideburns.

The leather figures were neatly aligned, and seemed to stand under the canopy of trees staring at them, and whatever it was, it was always uncomfortable for everyone to look at.

"Why do you always feel like these things aren't normal?"

Yue Guanchao saw the end, the more he looked at it, the more he felt that the hairs on his body exploded, and if he didn't look at the facial features of these things, he would immediately return to normal.

Song Siyuan took a flashlight to shine on the stone statue and explained: "The facial features of these portraits have been distorted, although they are still eyes, ears, nose, and nose, but they seem to be pieced together from different people, even if they are barely mixed together, they only feel abrupt and inappropriate." ”

"When people see such facial features, their minds will instinctively reject such an image, and at the same time, the idol will combine these abrupt facial features into a seamless face, and the human brain will only look at this abrupt but complete face, and the more you look at it, the more terrifying it becomes, which is like a person looking in the mirror, the longer the time he looks at it, the more he will feel that the face is not his own, and he will have an indescribable sense of discomfort."

"Actually, it's just a contradictory image created by the mind."

After Song Siyuan finished speaking, she looked at Wu Mifeng: "Uncle Wu, no matter what these idols are, at least they use the same distorted face?" ”

Song Siyuan just found out that whether it is a mask, a bronze statue or a stone statue, the same face is used, even if the face is forged and spliced, at least it means that behind this face, it must have some special meaning for the altar and the witch god.

"I haven't seen the altar either, and I'm really not familiar with it, but I only know that the things in the altar are statues handed down from the ancient witch kingdom."

Wu Xuanyu listened to the uncle's words, his eyes flashed with a different color, and he seemed to have an understanding and explained: "Udu Amu said that legend has it that Chiyou once came to the mirror world for a short time, and the unknown gods he saw were such strange images, and later, he painted this image on the totem and used it to make masks. ”

"In the following thousands of years, the Witch God Kingdom was divided into various tribes, and the masks and totems gradually became complicated, only the horns were preserved, forming a lineage of characteristics, and the masks here are closest to the original image of the Ancient Witch God Kingdom, probably, are the things of the mirror world that Chi You sensed."

The little witch's words made Yue Guanchao curious about the mask: "Could it be that the gods of time and space in the mirror have all grown like this?" That's too different from people, no matter how strange it is, it won't grow like this. ”

Song Siyuan looked at the statue and said: "I remember that Lan Xian said that some images in the world are actually the projections of unknown objects in the mirror time and space in real time and space, in that case, will these strange statues also be distorted images, just like the facial features that have been sewn up, just the appearance in Chi You's eyes, not what they look like this?" ”

Wu Xuanyu nodded: "It is also possible that what you said, no one has been able to understand the mirror space until now, what you said is indeed possible, perhaps, Chi You saw more than one image at that time, and put them together to form today's strange appearance, which is also reasonable." ”

"If the gods are ancient gods, then what are these skin people, wouldn't they also be put together by Chiyou according to the image of the mirror gods!"

Xu Xiake looked at these leather figures, the images of paper figurines in the altar or tomb were somewhat supernatural, mostly used to frighten outsiders, or to serve the master, they were all hanging under the canopy, and the meaning seemed to be moving closer in these directions.

Wu Xuanyu was all too familiar with this, and continued to explain: "This is the Wuxian Heavenly Maiden, similar to the incense god who sprinkles flower petals around the Han gods and plays fairy music, and the Buddhist Gandapo who worships flowers and fruits, specially used to serve the ancient gods, most of the temples have these images, they are spirits who serve the gods, and we usually call them mountain ghosts. ”

"Mountain ghosts?"

Song Siyuan became curious.

Wu Xuanyu nodded thoughtfully: "Yes, it is the mountain ghost in Qu Yuan's "Nine Songs", there is no distinction between Wuxian ghosts and gods, the mountain ghost is actually the mountain god, responsible for the stacking of mountains and forests, the grass and trees are urging, among the twelve gods of the Witch God Kingdom, the mountain witch is actually the mountain ghost, but the mountain witch is more noble, and he is the master of all the mountain gods. ”

"The Mountain Witch Society will summon the soul lost in the forest as a mountain ghost, used to serve the ancient gods, and later, the mountain ghost will become the witch goddess, appearing on the sacrificial occasion, not only for statues, god paintings, in the major sacrificial ceremonies of the witch god country, there will also be a mountain ghost dressed as a female sacrifice."

"The mountain ghosts here are wearing the golden tree crown of the Witch God Kingdom, which really plays a role in worship."

"Let's keep going, we'll have to go inside the shrine."

Yue Guanchao and the others bypassed the strange stone statues, walked to the square at the end of the flower bed, and came to the central shrine.

The shape of this shrine is equivalent to a miniature version of the altar of the witch god, the size of a sedan car, and the octagonal altar is built with a pointed green tile roof and a glittering golden oit.

The curtain of the shrine overlapped, and there were many shadows inside, as if there was a person sitting, Yue Guanchao shone a flashlight on the curtain, and the light diffused onto the golden gauze curtain, reflecting a brilliant light, and even the statue of the god behind the gauze curtain was illuminated, scattering countless small spots of light through the hole in the curtain.

He carefully lifted the curtain, and in the curtain sat a statue of the witch god.

As mentioned earlier, the witch god is actually Chiyou's head and Dulu's body, and the figure that appeared in front of them is indeed the same.

The whole idol is wearing a slightly slim wide-sleeved robe, this dress is green outside, the red shirt lining faintly appears, the neckline is tightened by a white silk shirt, the hem is slightly fluffy, the waist is closed with a leather belt to create a straight figure, the two sleeves are extremely wide, almost long to the feet.

The outermost green robe is embroidered with seventy-two village totems, these totems are stacked with five-color stone beads, and then woven with gold and silver threads to weave the stone to weave a pattern, which is full of embroidery, thick and three-dimensional, and directly outlines the upright figure on the body.

If you look closely, you can see the upright body, and the head is quite suitable, this head is wearing the alien mask they have seen, with a ghostly face, terrifying horns, and a mask painted with paint, like a rakshasa ghost, mysterious and treacherous.

After that, the hair of the idol was black and shiny, and it could be seen that the hair was clearly cut and fell down the shoulders like a waterfall, and the aura of the Dharma protector began to appear on the back of the head, a pair of eyes were like stars and especially deep and spiritual, and the hands were wearing gold skull armguards, and the hands were holding the long-handled sword like a wat, and standing as loose as in the shrine.

Some people died, but not completely......
