Chapter 7 Revisiting the Old House

Ye Fan and Ling'er are both cultivators, their eyesight is far better than ordinary people, even at night, they can also perceive everything, and Ye Fan also has the anti-heaven skill of divine sense sensing, whether there is a flashlight or not, it is the same for him, but Ye Fan did not refute Zhang Chuang's kindness, took the flashlight and Ling'er and walked towards the old house.

The door of the old mansion was not locked but was just hidden, Ye Fan and Ling'er pushed the door into the old mansion, and a long-lost familiarity immediately climbed into Ye Fan's heart. The old mansion has not changed, and it is exactly the same as when Ye Fan left. Ye Fan walked along the corridor in the old house and walked towards the courtyard of the main house, which was where Ye Fan's parents lived, and he lived in the wing room in that courtyard with his sister when he was a child.

Walking all the way, looking at those familiar scenes, Ye Fan recalled in his mind the picture of playing in the old house with his sister, and felt emotion in his heart. Ye Fan took Ling'er to the main house compound with a familiar car, pushed open the small door of the courtyard, and was facing the main house where Ye Fan's parents lived. Ye Fan walked a few steps quickly around the old well in the courtyard, and came to the door of the main house in a few clicks.

Facing the door, Ye Fan seemed to see that his parents were still inside, and he saw that his parents were teaching his sister to read and write. Ye Fan gently stroked the copper ring on the door and didn't push the door open, he didn't have the courage to push the door open, because he knew that all his illusions would be shattered if he pushed the door, his parents were no longer there, his sister was no longer there, everyone in the Ye family was gone, and now he was the only one here.

Ye Fan faced the door for a long time before he slowly turned around and said to Ling'er leisurely: "Ling'er, you are watching outside, I'll find something left by my parents!"

Ling'er saw Ye Fan's lonely expression, her heart was about to break, and she hurriedly responded softly: "Okay!"

Ye Fan stood at the door of the house and counted the green bricks and stones in the yard one by one, and when he counted to the ninth, Ye Fan jumped on top of the green bricks, and knocked lightly with his hand, and sure enough, there was a crisp sound, and the bottom of the green bricks was empty. Ye Fan vigorously lifted the blue bricks and stones, revealing the gray soil below. Ye Fan peeled off the dust, only to see that an altar mouth was revealed.

Ye Fan was overjoyed when he saw this, and sure enough, the things left by his parents were still here. Ye Fan lifted the jar out of the soil, Ye Fan did not open it immediately, but put the jar directly into the Ruyi ring. Then Ye Fan turned back the soil on the ground and re-covered the green bricks to restore them to their original state. This is what Ye Fan's parents told him when he was a child, and these things can be used to save the Ye family when they are in danger.

Ye Fan said hello to Ling'er and was about to turn around and leave the courtyard.

Suddenly, a strange sound of rushing water sounded from the well in the courtyard, which was heard very clearly in the silence of the night. Ye Fan was a little surprised in his heart, could it be that this was Zhang Chuang's haunted voice. Ye Fan flashed to the side of the well, and saw a bright moon reflected in the water in the well, and the well water was tumbling up and down, as if there was a big fish stirring the well water under the water. However, Ye Fan released his divine sense and did not detect the life of a living creature, what was going on? Ye Fan couldn't help but be a little surprised.

And Ye Fan vaguely felt that something in the well seemed to be staring at him, and that feeling was like a backstabbing that made people very uncomfortable. There must be something in the water, but the divine sense can't observe it, so there is something strange in the well. Ye Fan threw a stone into the well, and Ye Fan was surprised to find that the stone did not sink into the well, but floated on the well, as if something was lifting the stone up. The well water was not tumbling, but was spinning in a strange way, as if it was going to communicate with Ye Fan. Ye Fan became more and more surprised by the well, and he couldn't see any clues after calling Ling'er.

Ye Fan heard this well from his father back then, and it had been hundreds of years since the ancestors of the Ye family dug this well when they were building the old house. When he was a child, Ye Fan often played by the well, and nothing weird happened.

Just when Ye Fan was puzzled, there was a noise of footsteps outside the courtyard, and there was a faint movement of the light pillar of a flashlight, someone should be coming. Ye Fan had no choice but to stop thinking about the strange situation of the old well and greeted Ling'er out, and saw that Lao Hei was looking for Ye Fan in the old mansion with a few people from the dormitory.

Seeing Ye Fan take a long breath, Lao Hei ran over and asked nervously, "Brother Ye, is there anything wrong?"

Ye Fan asked with some confusion, "What's the matter?"

Lao Hei suddenly lowered his voice and asked quietly, "You haven't met a ghost, have you?" It turned out that Zhang Chuang saw Ye Fan outside and they didn't come out when they entered the old mansion, afraid that Ye Fan and Ling'er would have an accident inside, so he hurriedly ran back to the dormitory and told Lao Hei, so Lao Hei immediately brought someone over to find Ye Fan.

Ye Fan smiled bitterly: "No, I don't see any ghosts here!"

"It's no better......! Let's go, this place can't come at night!" "Seeing that Ye Fan and Ling'er were fine, Lao Hei also fell to the ground in his heart, and hurriedly urged everyone to leave the old mansion quickly.

Ye Fan followed everyone out of the old mansion and walked towards the dormitory, along the way, Ye Fan's mind was full of the strange scene of the old well, and he secretly thought that he must find a chance to go down to the ancient well to have a look.

The next day, Ye Fan was called to the office by Zhang Meiyun, and Zhang Meiyun told Ye Fan that the matter with Xie Laosan had been completely resolved, and there was no need to worry about the Xie family's revenge in the future. Zhang Meiyun said that the Xie family will no longer operate Xiuchuan's bus business in the future, and will not get involved in the business related to scenic spots. It turned out that after Xie Laosan was arrested at the police station yesterday, due to the bad nature of the case, Liu Ming wanted to report the case to the province, Xie Chunyang, the boss of the Xie family, in order to fish out his younger brother, found Liu Ming and made a condition to ensure that the Xie family would not interfere in the affairs of Xiuchuan Scenic Area in the future, hoping that Liu Ming could raise his noble hand and let his brother go.

Liu Ming didn't agree at first, and now the position of the chief of the police station in Qingyang has just been vacated, and it is said that the new director will choose one of Liu Ming and Xie Chunyang, and now the two are in a competitive relationship, of course Liu Ming will not let go of this opportunity to step on Xie Chunyang. Xie Chunyang hated this uncompetitive younger brother in his heart, and he did everything he could to make trouble for himself, and he was still at this juncture. There was no way, Xie Chunyang had to find Zhang Meiyun and say his conditions again, and in addition, he was compensating the scenic spot with 2 million yuan, hoping that Zhang Meiyun would no longer pursue Xie Laosan's matter.

Zhang Meiyun was very happy to hear Xie Chunyang's suggestion, after all, Xie Laosan was arrested, but the Xie family's influence in Xiuchuan is still very large, if you want to operate the scenic spot for a long time, it is still necessary to maintain a harmonious relationship with the Xie family, so Zhang Meiyun agreed to Xie Chunyang's request and went to the police station to withdraw the report, Liu Ming had no choice but to turn Xie Laosan's case from a criminal case to a civil dispute.

Ye Fan wasn't worried about the Xie family looking for trouble, but seeing that Zhang Meiyun was so happy, he casually said a few perfunctory words, and then found an excuse to leave the office in a hurry. As soon as Ye Fan came out of the office, he saw Ling'er, Ye Fan pulled Ling'er aside and quietly told her that he took the initiative to apply for the night shift outside the old mansion at night, and asked her to come to him at night. Ling'er knew that Ye Fan was worried about the well, and nodded knowingly to indicate that she knew.

At 12 o'clock in the evening, Ye Fan saw Ling'er who had secretly rushed over at the security guard box next to the old mansion, and the two went to the main courtyard of the old mansion together.

Ye Fan and Ling'er came to the well in front of the main house, Ye Fan leaned down and took a closer look, the last time he came, because he was in too much of a hurry, Ye Fan didn't look carefully, this time Ye Fan checked very carefully. The well is still the same as when Ye Fan left, but the water level of the well has dropped a lot, and the mouth of the well is only the thickness of one person, and the wall of the well is full of moss because there is no sunlight. Ye Fan observed by the well for a long time, and there was no such thing as the fluctuation of water ripples at that time. It's just that there are two rows of shallow potholes on the wall of the well until the bottom of the well, and due to the long time, the potholes are covered with moss, and it really can't be found without careful observation.

Ye Fan pondered for a moment and said to Ling'er: "You are guarding outside, I'll go down to the well and take a look!"

"Ah, go down! What else can there be in the well but water?" Ling'er looked at Ye Fan puzzled.

Ye Fan frowned, and said, "There must be something in the well, I have to go down, you just have to watch outside! I'm afraid that if someone comes in, it will be troublesome!" After speaking, Ye Fan took off his coat and pants, and was about to go down wearing only a pair of shorts.

Ling'er saw that Ye Fan was only wearing a pair of shorts, and looked at Ye Fan with a smile on the side, Ye Fan was annoyed by her, and said angrily: "What's so good-looking, don't think I don't know that you come to take a peek every time I take a bath!"

"You ......!" Ling'er suddenly showed off her cheeks, when she was in the wild forest before, every time Ye Fan quenched his body, Ling'er, who had not transformed into a humanoid at that time, stayed by the side, even after Ling'er transformed into a humanoid form, he often watched Ye Fan take a bath and quench his body. However, the two didn't feel anything when they were young, but since they returned to Earth, the two came into contact with the secular world, and their love has been opened, so they feel a little embarrassed.

Ye Fan dodged the slap from Ling'er, turned over and entered the well, supporting the wall of the well and sliding down step by step, although the wall of the well was slippery and greasy, but Ye Fan's arms were extremely strong, and he still went down to the bottom of the well very steadily. Before reaching the surface of the water, Ye Fan stopped his figure and took a closer look.

The well water in the ancient well was cold and biting, and the bottom could not be seen at all, Ye Fan gritted his teeth, let go of his arm and fell directly into the water, and suddenly felt a chill all over his body. Ye Fan's legs swung underwater, kicking the wall of the well from time to time, and suddenly Ye Fan found that a kick was empty, as if there was an empty part of the underwater well wall.

Ye Fan knew that something was wrong, took a deep breath, and dived under the water to look around, and sure enough, less than two meters from the water surface, there was a hole in the wall of the well. Ye Fan swam to the entrance of the cave and looked inside, and there was nothing to see in the pitch black. Ye Fan swam inward along the top wall of the cave, Ye Fan was not worried about drowning, he could hold on for at least more than ten minutes in one breath, and Ye Fan could breathe with the technique of internal breath very early, even if he could not breathe normally, Ye Fan could also rely on the technique of internal breath to stay underwater for a long time, enough to return to the surface of the water by himself.

However, Ye Fan didn't swim for a while, he swam to the end of the water hole, feeling that his back was empty, and an upward water hole appeared above Ye Fan's head. Ye Fan did not hesitate to go directly upstream, and with the help of underwater buoyancy, Ye Fan quickly surfaced.
