Chapter 3 Gossip in the Well

Ye Fan is not an archaeological expert, so he can't tell what material the bluestone used to build the well belongs to, where it comes from, and how many years of precipitation, the only thing he wants to know at the moment is where the white light came from.

"Hey, Yezi, have you noticed?" Zhou Yu's voice came from the earphones, even more nervous than Ye Fan.

"Not yet, have you found it above?" Ye Fan asked, after all, the drone above his head was still parked there, and the camera on it could also clearly see the entire bottom of the well, and he could see the overall situation more clearly.

"No, why don't I throw a shovel at you, and you dig down and see?" Zhou Yu also came up with an idea.

"No, even if there is really something in this well, it is impossible to bury it underneath, otherwise you think it will be our turn?" Ye Fan directly rejected Zhou Yu's proposal, but more importantly, it was the scene last night, when the wellhead kept gushing out white light, as if boiling water was boiling.

By the way, boiling water?

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in Ye Fan's mind, and he faintly felt as if he had grasped something, but it was difficult to explain clearly for a while.

"Old fish, do you remember when we were young?"

Ye Fan's words immediately evoked Zhou Yu's memories, after all, he also grew up here, so he said: "Why don't you remember? When we were children, we didn't even dare to get close to the well, so we could only race far away and throw stones into it to see who threw it accurately, and I don't know how many stones were filled in it." ”

"Yes, that's it, the water overflows, and so does the light, to be precise, it shouldn't be light, and it's a kind of qi, but it just looks like light at the time, or that the qi is illuminated by the light. Ye Fan muttered to himself with surprise on his face.

"What kind of water is overflowing?" Zhou Yu asked a little confused.

"I think I might have discovered the secret of this well. Ye Fan said.

"What's the secret?" Zhou Yu suddenly asked eagerly.

"Once the grandfather got drunk and said some strange things, saying that the real name of this well should be called the Dragon King's Well, originally there was a well dragon king living in it, in charge of all the well water within a radius of 100 miles, people who live nearby want to eat water, they need to honor the well dragon king, and the sacrifice is a boy and a girl, the local people in order to survive, can only be sacrificed every year on the birthday of the well dragon king. ”

It is said that the water in all the wells within a hundred miles turned red, and the locals were afraid, so they filled in those wells, and only this well, for some reason, was preserved. ”

In the car, Zhou Yu listened to these words in a daze, his expression was a little strange, "I said Yezi, you are telling me a story, right?"

"Do you think it's fake?" Ye Fan asked rhetorically.

"Could it be that you think it's true?" Zhou Yu was even more speechless.

"I don't know, when I heard my grandfather say this, I thought he was drunk and talking nonsense, and even the next day when he was sober I asked him again, but he didn't have the slightest impression, and even said that I heard it wrong, but in fact, I remember it clearly. ”

"Then what are you going to do? Fill this well or?" Zhou Yu couldn't help but ask.

"This is a cultural relic, do you think I can fill it in?" Ye Fan was still a little self-aware, of course, more importantly, in fact, even he didn't quite believe what he said, but what happened last night still made him a little more suspicious, or curious, and wanted to find out the truth here, to see if he was really dazzled, or if there was another reason.

"Okay, you go up the drone first, I'm going to make sure of something. ”

"Okay, then be careful, call me directly if you have something. ”

Zhou Yu answered in the headset and flew the drone out, because there was no light under the drone, so the well was much darker all of a sudden, but then, Ye Fan turned off the light on his safety helmet, and suddenly, the bottom of the well fell into darkness.

Although he knew that Zhou Yu was in the car outside, and he could quickly rise up if something happened, at this moment, a touch of fear still rose in Ye Fan's heart, and he took a few deep breaths and forcibly calmed himself.

Fortunately, he has insisted on practicing martial arts and standing on the pile over the years, and in comparison, it still has some effect.

After calming down, Ye Fan looked up, and a depressed feeling suddenly appeared, and the wellhead above his head also had light penetrating in, but he couldn't go deep into it.

Ye Fan squinted, moving his gaze little by little, and finally, in the lower third of the wellhead, he found a clue, and then pressed the switch up, the motor began to rotate, and the thin wire rope pulled Ye Fan up.

"What's wrong, what's wrong?" Zhou Yu hurriedly asked when he heard the sound of the motor turning.

"There is a discovery, but it needs to be verified. As he spoke, Ye Fan had slowly risen to that position, which was the demarcation point where the light from outside was cast into the well, but because of his age, the wall of the well was covered with a layer of hard dust.

And the reason why he found out that there was a problem here was because he vaguely felt that this place was like a black hole, constantly swallowing up the light outside.

Ye Fan carefully wiped off the layer of dust, and a blurry handwriting finally appeared in front of him, which was the word 'dry'.

"Qian?" Ye Fan was taken aback, this word is not used much normally, but the most commonly used word is the word Qiankun, because he has practiced martial arts since he was a child, so that Ye Fan knows more about these things than others, at least he also knows another meaning of this word.

"The dry person is the sky, the kun is the earth, and the Qiankun actually refers to the heaven and the earth. ”

Thinking back to the shape of the wellhead at this moment, isn't it just an octagonal? Octagonal, octagonal, and with the word 'dry', the answer is already coming out.

He glanced up again, confirmed that the dry character was facing the northwest, and then he gently kicked his feet on the wall of the well, and repeatedly turned around to the southwest position, and then wiped the well stone clean, and sure enough, another word appeared, which was the word 'Kun'.

The smile on Ye Fan's face became more and more vigorous, he faintly felt that the truth was almost in front of him, the reason why he was sure that the thing would not be at the bottom of the well was mainly because those archaeological experts had come down a few years ago, and various advanced instruments had also been used, if there was any treasure hidden at the bottom of the well, I am afraid it would have been excavated a long time ago, and it would not wait for him to come.

Therefore, after eliminating the treasure at the bottom of the well, Ye Fan's attention fell on the wall of the well, especially on it, which is often easy for people to ignore.

Through Zhou Yu's words, Ye Fan thought of the water overflowing, since it is a well, then there was water a long time ago, so it is naturally impossible to be underwater, in fact, the existence of everything has a certain truth at all, the key depends on whether you can find it.

With such an idea, Ye Fan carefully observed, and finally found the clue through the distance from the light outside, and finally, one word after another appeared in front of Ye Fan.

'Dry, Zhen, Kan, Gen, Kun, Xun, Li, Dui'

The meaning of these eight words is gossip.

"Could it be that grandpa didn't say wine, there was really a suppression of a well dragon king here?" Ye Fan couldn't help but hesitate, but this hesitation only lasted for a few seconds, and he was left behind, he suddenly punched the dry word, and a sharp pain came, but Ye Fan obviously didn't care about it so much, the well stone was smashed, and it actually fell inside, and then Ye Fan smashed the other seven well stones engraved with words one by one.

"Buzz!"

Just after all the eight words fell, the light above his head seemed to be led down by a mysterious force, and slowly condensed a cloud of white light in front of Ye Fan, this white light gave people a very warm feeling, and at the same time, it was a little familiar.

"It's this light. Ye Fan thought of the scene last night.

Suddenly, he vaguely saw a shadow flash in the white light, and deep down in his heart, he even had a strong feeling that as long as he stretched out his hand, he could hold the so-called truth.
