Chapter Forty-Eight: The Dragon King's Well

My heart thumped and I realized the gravity of the situation.

I took a deep breath to calm my manic emotions: "Why?"

Quan Ling said: "The relationship between Master and Lao Wu is much more complicated than you think. ”

"As far as I know, Master hates Lao Wu very much, but for some reason, he can't kill him, and even has to protect him. ”

"If you let him know that you may threaten the life of the fifth child, Master may really kill you. ”

"Don't question my words, that fifth child is really important to Master, even more important than Master's own life. ”

I was confused.

obviously hates that he can't kill the other party, but for some reason he can't kill him, and he has to protect him.

What is the reason for this?

I was terrified when I thought about it.

Quan Ling continued: "Today's words are firmly in your heart. If the relationship between you and the fifth child is revealed, I am afraid that the master will really kill the killer. ”

I swallowed hard and nodded.

The spirit turned to leave, but I was still immersed in the spirit of the spring's words.

When I walked to the door, Quan Ling suddenly turned around and smiled at me.

"You're living in this room alone, are you scared?"

I shook my head absentmindedly: "Don't be afraid. ”

Quan Ling gave me another inexplicable look and left disappointed.

I ignored Quan Ling and collapsed on the bed, my mind full of Quan Ling's words.

Mao suit and the fifth master, what is the relationship between them!

Early the next morning, we were woken up by the innkeeper Zhao Danian.

Zhao Danian excitedly told us that his son really gave him a dream yesterday.

His son was very grateful to Zhao Danian for giving him freedom and allowing him to embark on the path of reincarnation again.

His son even said that if Zhao Danian found a daughter-in-law, he would reincarnate him as a son.

The tunic didn't react to Zhao Danian's words, just nodded absentmindedly.

After Zhao Danian finished speaking, the tunic asked Zhao Danian to drive us to Xinjiaji.

Zhao Danian was grateful to us and agreed without hesitation.

After he invited us to breakfast, he drove us to Xinjiaji in his broken Santana.

Xinjiaji is hundreds of kilometers away from his hotel, and we had to bump around in the car for more than four hours before we finally reached our destination.

The so-called Xinjia Market is actually an ordinary bazaar.

Every day around 10 o'clock, nearby vendors gather here to sell vegetables and groceries.

There are not many households living here, only four or five families.

At around eleven o'clock, nearby farmers come here to buy their wares.

When we arrived, it was twelve o'clock, and the market was bustling.

The crowd was bustling, rubbing shoulders, and it was very lively.

Girls are born to be lively, looking at the various snacks and trinkets in the bazaar, Quan Ling's eyes glow green.

She took me by the hand and went into the bazaar, where she bought a few skewers to eat, a few trinkets, rings, balloons, and had a lot of fun.

Looking at Quan Ling's happy appearance, I secretly sighed in my heart: If anyone marries Quan Ling, it is really an ancestor who has accumulated virtue.

People are beautiful, and they don't have any power at all, and a little thing can make them happy.

What the best mate in a man's heart.

We played for more than an hour before the crowd finally dispersed.

Quan Ling was also tired of playing, so he took me to the master.

The tunic has been waiting for us under a big locust tree, with a straight face and a non-formal smile.

I know that he has always been worried about the fifth master in his heart.

Seeing us coming back, the tunic stood up nervously, stared at Quan Ling eagerly, and said, "Quan Ling, are there any clues?"

I was embarrassed and red-faced.

We just cared about playing, where did we investigate the matter of the fifth master.

However, Quan Ling regained his serious expression: "I smell a corpse breath, but it's very faint. ”

"And there are no graves around here, this corpse has a strange atmosphere. ”

The tunic nodded: "It seems that the fifth child did leave something here." ”

"Did you smell where the corpse gas came from?"

Quan Ling shook his head: "There are too many people, I can't smell it." ”

The tunic sat down again: "Okay, wait for the crowd to disperse, continue to track the corpse." ”

I felt guilty in my heart, but I didn't expect that when Quan Ling was playing just now, he had been secretly investigating the clues of the fifth master.

And my mind was full of play!

It seems that there is still a big gap between me and Quan Ling.

We sat down under the big locust tree and waited for the crowd at the bazaar to disperse.

I bored and asked Quan Ling, was she pretending to be happy just now, deliberately confusing the eyes of human beings?

Quan Ling shrugged: "Don't tease the little junior brother, your senior sister and I have seen the world." ”

"Tiannan Haibei, where have you never been, who has not been in contact with, a small bazaar, can you make me like this? ”

I don't know why, listening to her say that, my heart is a little empty.

I'm a poor sour boy, and I'm not worthy of anyone at all.

Seeing that I was not happy, Quan Ling suddenly frowned and asked me what's wrong?

I shook my head and said it was nothing, I just missed my family.

Quan Ling patted me on the shoulder, sighed, and didn't say anything.

After waiting for more than an hour, the talents who rushed to the market finally dispersed.

The vendors found a shady corner to rest and waited until the evening to reopen.

The bustling bazaar just now became deserted in the blink of an eye.

The tunic looked at Quan Ling: "Let's act, find the source of the corpse qi." ”

Quan Ling nodded, got up and walked away.

I thought that the spring spirit was going to track down the corpse qi and wanted to follow up to help.

But the tunic stopped me: "You wait here." ”

The face of the tunic is very serious, which is very different from the previous image of kindness and comics.

I didn't dare to mess with him, so I just nodded.

Quan Ling walked behind a large tree, and it was not long before a large black cat came out from behind the tree and walked towards us.

It dawned on me that the spirit of the fountain of feelings had gone to the back of the tree to transform.

After Quan Ling walked up, the tunic immediately stood up and followed Quan Ling.

Quan Ling kept shrugging his nose, sniffing his breath, and moving forward little by little.

It didn't take long for the spring spirit to stop at an ancient well.

The location of this ancient well is very remote, under a large tree, more than 50 meters away from the market.

If you don't look closely, it's really not easy to find.

The tunic immediately leaned up nervously and looked down at the ancient well.

I immediately followed and looked down.

The ancient well is unfathomable, and the bottom is so black that you can't see the bottom.

I sniffed hard and smelled a pungent musty smell, as well as a ...... The smell of blood.

The tunic looked at Quan Ling, and Quan Ling immediately walked away in understanding.

After that, he picked up a brick from the side and threw it under the ancient well.

The bricks fell to the ground, and there was a dull sound.

It seems that the ancient well has long since dried up, and there is no water underneath.

The tunic frowned and looked more closely.

After a moment, he suddenly reached out and grabbed a handful on the wall of the well.

I immediately looked closely, and I was shocked to see that he had pulled out a lot of red scrap from the wall of the well, as well as red lumpy objects.

The tunic put the powder on his nose and smelled it, and his face became even more ugly.

I cautiously asked, "Master, what is this?"

The tunic said in a deep voice: "It is coagulated human blood, and it will never take more than a day to pour it into the well." ”

"Ahh

"And there is corpse gas in this well, could it be...... Someone raised the corpse with blood. ”

The tunic shook his head: "It's not as simple as you think." ”

As he spoke, the spring spirit returned.

She has taken human form.

I found that the spring spirit was pale and weak, and it seemed to be changing from place to place, which consumed a lot of energy.

Quan Ling walked up and said, "Master, the corpse qi is emitted from the bottom of the well. ”

"I said why is this corpse qi so weak, and the feelings are hidden under the ancient well. ”

Zhongshan nodded: "This ancient well is greasy, let's go, let's inquire." ”

Quan Ling immediately took us back to the market, found a meatloaf stand, and asked for three meatloaf.

I was already hungry, and I looked at the crispy meatloaf on the outside and tender on the inside, and ate it even though I devoured it.

After eating a few bites, he asked the vendor for a bowl of boiling water.

The tunic took a sip of water and said with a smile: "Little brother, your water is so sweet." Did you dig it from that ancient well?"

The owner of the meatloaf stall shook his head and smiled: "Where can I be, that Dragon King Well has long been dry, and there is no water in it." This water is the brook of the mountains. ”

The tunic said thoughtfully: "Oh, I think that ancient well has a very strong aura, how can it be dry?"
