Chapter 45: The Kiln Well

The manhole cover was moved aside, and I took out a flashlight from my bag and shone it down the well: "Master, if I don't go down by myself, don't go." ”

"I'm not at ease with you alone. Uncle Wei shook his head.

"There's nothing to worry about, don't you just go down and see if there are any mice, I'm not afraid to dress like this, even if there is, let's both go down, in case something happens, there will be no one to take care of. I explained.

Uncle Wei thought for a moment, then nodded: "What you said makes sense......

"That's it!" I snapped.

I squatted on the edge of the well and poked my head out, there was a ladder on the wall of the well, I tried it with my feet, and I could hook it.

"Master, then I'll go down. ”

"Be careful, don't be reckless, and come back right away if something goes wrong. Uncle Wei admonished.

"Don't worry, I'm most afraid of death!" I smiled.

"Phew, what is not dead, pure nonsense!" Uncle Wei's hand suddenly raised, and then gently fell on my head and patted: "Master won't let you have an accident." ”

I nodded, and Uncle Wei's concern made my nose suddenly a little sour.

"Master, I'm going down. I turned my head, grabbed the edge of the well with my hand, and drilled down the ladder into the kiln.

After more than three meters, my foot hit the bottom, and I let go of the ladder and pulled my flashlight from my backpack with my backhand.

The well was not as filthy as I thought, but there was a thick layer of silt, and there were sewers on both sides of the kiln well, and I tried it, but the height required me to bow my head slightly, and it was not too difficult to walk.

"How is it?" Uncle Wei's voice came from above.

"Master, I'll go inside and have a look. "I picked a direction and lowered my head into the sewer.

There was water in the sewer, the depth of the water was no deeper than the upper of my shoes, there was a layer of moss on the walls of the cement pipe, and the light and shadow of the flashlight was dense and cloudy floating.

I walked forward with my head down, one foot deeper, one foot shallow, and the sewer went straight into the distance, and at the end of the flashlight was darkness, and I didn't know where the sewer leads, so I can only keep going.

The water was rattling with my feet, the flashlight was shining in front of me, and the smell in the sewer was unpleasant, and the strange smell of muddy water and the sweltering heat made beads of sweat roll down my body.

After walking for a while, I stopped, raised my arm to wipe the sweat from my head.

Suddenly something was heard in my ears!

I allowed myself to be quiet and listen, and there seemed to be a thin rustling sound in the darkness in the distance.

The flashlight couldn't sweep that far, and I was a little hesitant.

After hesitating for a while, I continued to move forward, I didn't feel at ease after all, the rat swarm in the afternoon came out of the sewer, Uncle Wei wanted to confirm whether the rats were still hiding in the sewer, so I had to see it with my own eyes.

The further I went, the deeper the water became, and the more mud got into the water, and gradually my feet sank in.

"Damn!" I cursed.

"Whoa!" suddenly there was a sound of water.

The flashlight swept quickly, and the shadows of several mice in the light and shadow quickly disappeared.

I hurried forward to chase after it, and suddenly my feet slipped, and I screamed and instinctively went to support the wall of the well, and the flashlight in my hand knocked on the wall of the well and fell from my hand.

It was dark in an instant!

I bent down to pick up the flashlight, and suddenly I saw a lot of stars in front of me!

It seemed to appear suddenly, and round dots of faint green light instantly filled the entire space, some green lights were still moving, and the sound of salsa was heard in my ears again!

The next second I reacted violently!

It's a mouse! These are the eyes of a mouse!

Without even thinking about it, I turned around and ran!

The hot sweat brush on the body turned into cold sweat, and goosebumps were also flushed!

The sound of the water that I sprinted and stirred up covered everything, and I didn't dare to turn back, and I ran to the place where I went down the kiln well.

"What's wrong?" Uncle Wei's voice came down.

“…… Mouse!" I swallowed and grabbed the ladder and climbed up.

“…… A lot of rats, right in the sewers. "I gasped for breath as I climbed out of the kiln, and I felt like my heart was beating out of my throat from the bare run and the fear I was afraid of.

"Did you see it with your own eyes?" asked Uncle Wei.

"Hmmm! I'm scared to death, it's all green little eyes!" I patted my chest with my hand.

"Green eyes...... You mean the mouse's eyes glow green?" Uncle Wei frowned.

"No, it's a lot, it scares me to death!" I nodded.

"Have you ever seen a mouse with green eyes that still glows?" Uncle Wei pressed his hand on my shoulder, "Are you sure you're right?"

It dawned on me that the eyes of rats were not green and did not glow.

I recalled, and then recounted in detail what I saw in the well: "...... The flashlight fell off, and there was no light, and what I realized was indeed green, and I could see a vague shadow...... It's supposed to be a mouse. ”

After I finished speaking, Uncle Wei nodded, touched his chin with his hand and pondered.

"Master, or I'll go down again. I gritted my teeth.

"No need. Uncle Wei shook his head.

"Rats' eyes aren't green, and they shouldn't glow, maybe I'm mistaken. I scratched my head.

"I finally understand why rats only bite during the day!" Uncle Wei said suddenly.

"What?" I was stunned.

"Rats are nocturnal animals, but these days rat bites all happen during the day, and I have never figured it out, but now I understand that the people who manipulate the rat colony are afraid that the secret of the rat's eyes will be discovered. Uncle Wei said slowly.

"Master, I don't understand. I wondered.

"The rats have been drugged, and someone must have been deliberately manipulating them. Uncle Wei sighed.

"No, you can drug the rats to control them from biting. "I'm a little bit unconvinced.

"We have to find that person quickly, I don't know what he's going to do, but such a huge swarm of rats is too dangerous!" Uncle Wei's face showed anxiety.

"Where can I find it?" I touched my head, to be honest, I didn't want to look for it in my heart, if there was such a person, it would be too late to hide!

"It's too late today, let's go back first, and we'll talk about it tomorrow. Uncle Wei waved his hand.

When I returned to the store, Uncle Wei asked me to go upstairs to sleep first, he stayed on the first floor by himself, and I slept until midnight when I was suddenly woken up by a sound!

When I opened my eyes, I heard Sasha's voice in my ears.

I sat up from the bed in an instant!

I jumped out of bed and went to pull the door, and as soon as the door opened, I saw Uncle Wei!

"Shhhhhh

"There are rats. I couldn't help but point downstairs, I spoke softly, with a trill, and the sound downstairs was so familiar to me that it was the same as I heard in the sewers.

Uncle Wei nodded and pulled me towards the staircase.

The floor of the pharmacy was made of wood, and I walked very lightly, so I unconsciously stood on tiptoe, and when I reached the staircase, I felt the door of the electric light.

Suddenly, my hand was held down by Uncle Wei!
