Xue Mingrui saw her stop suddenly, and thought something was wrong, so he hurriedly asked:

"What's wrong?"

Lin Nuannuan shook her head:

"It's okay, Brother Rui, don't come over yet. ”

After speaking, Lin Nuannuan held her breath, put Lao Dou away, and placed her on the bed for the time being.

Xue Mingrui was not idle, he first found an oil lamp and then lit it with a fire sickle, plus the night pearl The house was finally bright, but he saw that it was dilapidated.

Lin Nuannuan looked at the shabby and dirty quilt with some worry, and after thinking about it, she still settled the old Dou half-covered and half-covered.

Then I searched in the dilapidated house, and finally found a bumpy broken copper basin.

"I remember when I came over, I saw a well in this courtyard. ”

Lin Nuannuan said as she walked out.

"You can fetch water?"

Xue Mingrui also went out, this little girl likes to rely on herself for everything, and she will never take the initiative to ask for help.

"I haven't fought before, so it shouldn't be difficult, right?"

Lin Nuannuan had already arrived at a well on the edge of the patio, this kind of well was very common in Jiangnan, and the bucket next to it was still on the side, and it was covered with a thick layer of ash.

Forget it, this is not the time to pay attention, and I can only do this for Lao Dou.

Lin Nuannuan tried to throw the bucket into the water, only to hear a "plop" sound, and the bucket seemed to have touched something hard and made a muffled sound.

She couldn't help but be stunned, this is different from what she imagined?

"The pail should be thrown in backwards,"

Xue Mingrui knew that she didn't know how to fetch water at all as soon as she saw Lin Nuannuan's appearance, but it's no wonder, when did a young lady do this kind of rough work?

Xue Mingrui pursed his thin lips and took the rope in Lin Nuannuan's hand, held it in his hand and pointed:

"The bucket should be thrown in backwards. ”

"Oh,"

It turned out that his method was wrong, and it seemed that everything he did was "specialized in the art industry", Lin Nuannuan smiled shyly at Xue Mingrui and made time for Xue Mingrui.

"Look, it's like this. ”

Xue Mingrui took advantage of the faint moonlight, picked up the bucket in three or two, and then threw the bucket into the well with the bottom side down.

"Plop. ”

Unexpectedly, at this time, the movement at the bottom of the well became more and more unusual, and the noise was louder than just now.

Lin Nuannuan had no experience and thought that it should be like this, staring at Xue Mingrui's gesture busily, looking eager for knowledge.

Seeing Lin Nuannuan like this, the corners of Xue Mingrui's mouth couldn't help but tilt up slightly, but he still said lightly:

"Nuan'er, do you want to learn this too?"

Lin Nuannuan also smiled, in fact, this is her instinctive reaction, everything used to rely on herself, she was afraid that she would not have anything to do when she encountered trouble, and asked for others, as the saying goes, "it is better to ask for others than to ask for yourself", so, after a long time, it has become what it is now.

However, it is actually quite interesting to say that this fetch of water is actually quite interesting, and she really wants to learn it.

As soon as she finished speaking, she only felt a chill on her body, and Lin Nuannuan was shocked, what was wrong? She couldn't help but look at Xue Mingrui next to her, and saw that he really had a solemn face.

No wonder she felt cold, it turned out to be Xue Mingrui, but what happened to Xue Shizi?

I saw Xue Mingrui shake the rope under his hand with a heavy face, and said seriously:

"There seems to be something down there. ”

"Something?"

Lin Nuannuan was stunned, isn't this a well?

Xue Mingrui seemed to see Lin Nuannuan's confusion, and said:

"It's a well!"

"How ?.... that?"

Lin Nuannuan couldn't help but be a little scared, could it be that there is a snake down here?

Somehow, she suddenly remembered the white-lipped bamboo Yeqing in the room in the mansion of Lin Guogong in the capital, the black room, and the bowl of snake blood that Xue Mingzhu drank....

Lin Nuannuan, who was still a little sleepy, suddenly sobered up:

"Brother Rui, it can't be a snake, right? ”

If it's a snake, wouldn't it be disgusting and scary to climb up the bucket? besides, there is no lobelia or half a lotus here....

Lin Nuannuan only felt a chill on her body, she hurriedly leaned towards Xue Mingrui, and at this time she only felt that Xue Shizi's cold face was not cold at all. She looked at the thick rope and felt that it was very similar to the bamboo leaf green, and couldn't help leaning towards Xue Mingrui's side again:

In heaven and on earth, what she is most afraid of is this snake!

"Not a living thing. ”

Xue Mingrui knew what happened to Lin Nuannuan in Youranju and hurriedly comforted her:

"Listen to the sound of dead things. ”

It's not a snake!

Lin Nuannuan couldn't help but let out a long breath, then she was relieved.

What's that, exactly?

It's hateful that it's night, and the inside of the well is just a black hole, and even if you take the night pearl, you can't see what is inside.

Xue Mingrui looked at the wellhead, his face was slightly cold, and his expression was solemn:

"I'll go down the well rope and see. ”

"That's not going to work!"

Lin Nuannuan grabbed Xue Mingrui's hand:

"Brother Rui, don't you know that the gentleman doesn't stand under the dangerous wall?"

Xue Mingrui raised his eyebrows, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly:

"Nuan'er doesn't worry about me?"

What I've done for so many years is not a thrilling thing, but it's just a drop in the bucket compared to this.

"Naturally, I don't feel at ease!"

Isn't this nonsense, it's so late, how can you let him go down the well alone, and I don't know what unknown things are inside.

After Lin Nuannuan's words were finished, the corners of Xue Mingrui's mouth curled even more, and his voice was soft:

"It's okay!"

"Can you guarantee you're okay?"

Lin Nuannuan's expression was unprecedentedly serious, and her attitude was also very resolute. Whatever was in him, she didn't want to know!

Along the way, this little girl is always worried about herself, this is a means that she has not seen herself!

Xue Mingrui couldn't help but have such a thought in his heart, but for some reason he just didn't want to say more.

Being cared for by a person, that person is still a little girl like Lin Nuannuan, this feeling is really not bad.

"Alright, don't go!"

Lin Nuannuan was afraid that he would go down, so she hurriedly took Xue Mingrui's hand:

"Let's go in, if there is no water, there will be no water! Maybe Lao Dou will wake up in a while, and we will talk about it when she wakes up." ”

"Nuan'er!"

Xue Mingrui looked at Lin Nuannuan helplessly, tonight's incident was too weird, and there was one more thing that he couldn't tell this little girl if he didn't have a conclusion now.

It's just that since he saw the stalactite cave and the night pearl full of rooms, he has had a bold guess in his heart, but he can't confirm it.

Now that there is movement in this well, he is just probing and maybe there will be new discoveries.

"Let me see!"

Xue Mingrui saw that his words had just fallen, and the little girl's mouth pursed, and somehow she felt a little uncomfortable in her heart. Hurriedly raised his hand and said solemnly:

"Rest assured, I promise to return safe and sound. ”

This Xue Shizi is so unpersuadable!

Lin Nuannuan really regretted it, so he shouldn't have let him come along.

She couldn't help but pinch her arm, and it was only when there was a pain that she frowned.

What happened on this day was really not a dream?

Lin Nuannuan sighed, but her eyes were more determined, although she didn't know why Xue Mingrui wanted to go down to investigate, she still stubbornly grabbed Xue Mingrui's sleeve and didn't let go;

"I won't let you go down, but if you insist on going, take me with you!"

It's not about burrowing, take her with you!

Xue Mingrui knew that Lin Nuannuan didn't want him to go down, he thought about it, and still stretched out his hand to hold the slender hand on his sleeve and coaxed her:

"Nuan'er let go, I promise to come up as soon as I see danger when I go down. ”

"If you want to run, you should run if this is flat ground!"

Lin Nuannuan was anxious, and couldn't help shouting:

"If you want to run, you should run if this is flat ground!"

"Who will go down and what will he do?"

Just as the two were arguing, they heard a familiar and unfamiliar rough voice from afar.

Lin Nuan's body was shocked, and he hurriedly turned around, sure enough, it was the voice that had not been seen for a long time, the person who had not been seen for a long time...

She couldn't help but let go of Xue Mingrui's sleeve and turned back in surprise:

"Granny Dou, are you awake?"
