Chapter 16: The Woman in the Wall of the Well
The man named Chen Ah Si took out two ropes from the box, these two ropes should be professional ropes for mountaineering, I saw that he tied one end of the rope into a mountaineering ring and tied it to the thighs and waist and abdomen, and the other end was buckled on a safety lock, and the safety lock was fixed on the iron chain of the winch, which was used by the drilling team to transport goods and personnel when drilling deep wells.

The other person shook the roulette wheel of the winch and slowly lowered Chen Ah Si from the wellhead.
After waiting for about five minutes, I only heard Chen Asi's voice coming from the walkie-talkie on our helmet, saying that he was already in the end, Cheng Jiao replied that he had received it, and then, according to the method of putting Chen Asi down, Tang Ying, Wu Lan, Da Mao, Ermao also let go down, when others went down, Ermao didn't dare to go down at the beginning, drummed up for a long time, and finally closed his eyes, his heart was horizontal, and he finally dared to go down, and when he went down, he shouted and screamed, with the extension of the rope, he gradually couldn't hear Ermao's cry, and I said in my heart that it seems that this well is really deep enough.
Then it was my turn to go down, and to be honest, I was also a little drumming in my heart, and I didn't know what was going on down there. The two "frogmen" helped me tie the rope, I stood on the edge of the well, the black hole below was bottomless, as if there was a suction, I grabbed the rope with both hands, and kicked the wall of the well with both feet, and the people above turned the wheel, and I began to descend slowly.
The headlamp on my helmet shone on the wall of the well, which was made of ancient bricks on all sides, but it was not damp and mossy as I had imagined it to be, but it was very dry and did not feel stuffy, but a cool breeze blew from below. My heart said, is there no water under this well, but a hollow?
The well was indeed very deep, and at first the wellhead was clearly visible, but as the depth of the descent gradually increased, the wellhead became smaller and smaller, and after about two or three minutes of descent, the wellhead could only be vaguely seen, and it became as if it was only the size of a teacup.
I used to be a software engineer, never did this kind of thing, this experience to know, dare to love this down the shaft and climb the mountain, is also a strength work, it seems that there is a winch on the top to slowly send down is very easy, in fact, due to the instinct of people out of fear of falling reasons, the whole body is very nervous, both arms have to pull the rope tightly, fix the body, feet have to kick the well wall to support themselves, the deeper the down, the weaker the sense of balance, the whole body will unconsciously work harder, physical consumption is great, I gradually have some physical exhaustion, sweat from the forehead out。
I used the walkie-talkie on my helmet to tell the person above to stop for a moment, I needed to take a break and catch my breath. The people above stopped turning the winch wheel after hearing my words, I leaned my back against the wall of the well, kicked the wall of the well opposite, wiped my sweat, gasped for breath, all around me except for the wall of the well that the headlamp can shine, there are black holes up and down, there is silence around, in this deep well, I feel like I am in a black hole.
Suddenly, I heard a voice coming from my walkie-talkie, "sting, stinging", this voice was intermittent, and in this voice, it seemed to be mixed with the sound of talking, it seemed to be a woman's voice, but it was not really heard.
"Hey, Cheng Jiao, are you talking to me?" I asked.
But the voice on the walkie-talkie was very small, and the noise was very loud, so I couldn't hear if Cheng Jiao was answering me.
"Hey, hey, is it Cheng Jiao, can you hear me?" I asked again.
I listened carefully to the voice on the intercom, and I still couldn't hear clearly, but it didn't seem to answer my question, but seemed to keep saying the same thing.
I wondered in my heart, could it be that Cheng Jiao was talking to someone on it, and it was transmitted through the walkie-talkie? But this pair of walkie-talkies has been set up to be a multi-party call, and what I said can be heard not only by Cheng Jiao, but also by others, but why didn't anyone answer me?
I lowered my head and looked at the bottom of the well, except where the headlamp could shine, there was a black hole underneath, I couldn't see what it was, and the people who went down just now didn't know where they went.
The intercom was still intermittently filled with the sound of stabbing and the voice of the woman talking, as if the same sentence was repeated.
Who's talking, what's being said? I pricked up my ears and listened, but I couldn't tell the difference.
I simply didn't use the walkie-talkie, and shouted at the top at the top of my voice: "Cheng Jiao, can you hear me?"
After waiting for a while, no one answered me, and all I heard was the "stab" on the walkie-talkie and the woman's repeated words.
I yelled a few more times at the bottom, again but no one answered.
I had a hairbreak on my body, and I was now hanging in the middle of this deep well, as if the people above and below had disappeared, and I couldn't go up, I couldn't get down, and I was trapped in this well.
I hung like this for an unknown amount of time, and even my consciousness was a little blurry. I remember when I was a kid I was afraid of death, and I remember asking my father what would happen if people died, and my father replied that when people died, they would fall into a very dark and deep hole, and they would keep falling down until they could not turn their heads. I feel it now, am I already dead?
"No, I'm not dead, at least I can still hear the woman's voice on the intercom, which means I'm still alive, I must find a way to get out" I tried to correct my judgment and encourage myself.
Thinking of this, I concentrated again, carefully discerning what the woman on the walkie-talkie was saying.
"...... Return"
It's like saying "what else......
"Will it be?", "And?", "Or?"
"What the hell is it?"
I discerned. It took me a long time to hear some eyebrows.
"Child!", yes, it's "child", not "still" of "still", but "child" of "child", talking about "child" or something.
But what is a child? I listened with bated breath.
"Children ......" and "children ......", what are children?
By the way, I finally made out that the woman kept saying, "Child, welcome back, with the stabbing voice on the intercom." ”
That's right, it's this sentence, when I recognized this sentence, it seemed that the voice of the voice was very clear, and it kept saying, "Child, welcome back." ”
Damn, when I made out the words, I got goosebumps all over my body, and I was scared out of white sweat. Who is talking to me? It will never be Cheng Jiao, Cheng Jiao will never say, "Child, you are welcome back." ”
So who is talking to this walkie-talkie?
"Who—who's talking?" I asked boldly.
But no one answered me, and the woman on the intercom kept repeating the words: "Child, welcome back." ”
"Y-Who are you? Where are you?" I asked again.
This time, the woman seemed to answer me.
"I'm here. ”
I shuddered.
"Here I am," the voice added.
But this time it doesn't seem to be coming from the intercom, it seems to be near me.
I hurriedly looked around, and the place where the headlamp shone was the stone brick wall of the well, and I didn't see anyone else. In addition, I am now hanging in the center of the well, which is only about a meter in diameter, and there are walls on all sides, so it is impossible for anyone else to be near me.
But the sound was coming from near me, where the hell was this woman? I looked around.
"I'm here. This time, the voice seemed so clear that it even seemed to be whispering in my ear, and my head "buzzed" and my whole body trembled.
"Is she—she's behind me!"
"I'm here. The voice said again.
This time I could tell that it was coming from behind me!
I hurriedly pulled the rope with my hands, kicked the wall of the well with both feet, and my body swirled in the air and turned around.
Turning around, I used the headlamp on my helmet to shine at the opposite wall of the well, just behind where my head was, the wall of the well was translucent, I poked my head forward, the headlamp followed my head towards the wall of the well, and I saw a terrible scene: there was a vague face in the translucent wall!
Nima, I was so frightened that I stepped back, leaning against the wall of the well.
Why is there a woman in the wall of this well? Who is she? Could it be that she was talking to me just now? Fear and questions took over my mind.
I stared at the face, her eyes were closed, there was no expression on her face, her whole face was pale, even her lips were pale, like the face of a dead man frozen under the ice.
The more I looked at it, the more furious I became, but my body hung in the middle of the well, and I couldn't go up or down, so I could only face this face in the wall of the well, and I was almost fainting with suffocation and fear from nervousness and fear.
Looking at it, I noticed that this face seemed to be gradually becoming clearer, maybe I was too nervous and had a delusion?
I stared at the face closely, yes, it was indeed getting clearer and clearer, but not only was the face constantly clearer, as if there was a silhouette of a body underneath, but it was also gradually revealed. There are also two hands next to it, and two pale hands are also revealed.
"Could it be that the wall of this well is melting?"
I trembled and stretched out my hand to try to touch the wall of the well, and no!
A terrible thought came to my mind: the woman in the wall of the well is slowly coming out of the wall!
Since I entered the antique industry, I have heard a lot of unknown rumors and anecdotes told by the people around me, one of which is the legend of the "Jade Man", which says that there is a jade fault in the underground or deep mountains, and this jade ore fault will give birth to a creature, people call them "Jade Man" or "Jade Demon", it is said that this kind of thing is quite fierce, if they are caught, a few strokes can tear people to pieces, of course, this is just a legend. However, I once heard Xiao Fat say that his uncle Wang Fatzi once met this kind of jade man, and he almost lost his life, I don't know if it's true or not. Could it be that this is the kind of "jade man" I met in this well today?
However, the woman in this well wall seems to be different from the legendary jade people, first of all, this well wall is not jade, but ordinary stone bricks, the most important point, this woman can actually talk to me, is she alive? What does she mean by the words: "Child, welcome you back"?
At this time, the two pale hands of the woman in the well wall have slowly stretched out from the well wall, and her face has gradually protruded from the well wall, my nerves have been tense to the extreme, I shouted at the walkie-talkie: "Let me go down, or pull me up!", but the people above the well did not respond, I hung in the middle of the well, like a lamb to the slaughter, there was nowhere to escape.
