After all, digging a big pit is much simpler than digging a well, and it can be carried out by multiple people at the same time, not necessarily like digging a well, only one person operates at the bottom of the well, and the soil dug out below is troublesomely hoisted up with a basket.

Rao is so, the speed of digging is not fast, but because it is located at the foot of the mountain, in addition to the floating soil on the surface, there are large and small gravel stones underneath, and the villagers have to use shovels to pry, chisel with chisels, or even tie them with ropes and pull many people together to remove the stones underneath.

It took a lot of effort to dig down little by little, but none of the onlookers left.

Ye Tianqing wanted to persuade her mother to go back to rest first, but Ye's mother shook her head and said that she also wanted to see such a rare opportunity.

Fortunately, Zi Die was clever and had already moved chairs, not only Ye Mu sat down, but Ye Tianqing and the second prince Jiang Shunhua, Jin Han, Qi Yingzhe, and He Guangqing who came over later.

With so many big people watching, the villagers are more motivated, and there are many substitute villagers watching the excitement on the side, and the depth of this big pit is still deepening at a considerable speed.

One foot, two feet, three feet, one zhang, two feet, three feet, and five feet, but there is still no water coming out, and the people around are anxious, after all, they have dug so deep, under normal circumstances, water has already come out.

Ye Tianqing also felt a little hanging, and couldn't help but look at the second prince and others sitting on the side.

In fact, when he dug up this Cheng dù, the second prince was not calm in his heart, and called the middle-aged man in Taoist costume again and asked him to make sure again.

In the midst of everyone's doubts, the Taoist priest picked up the compass again and walked around the pit a few times. Or think there's water down there.

After receiving such a reply, the second prince's relatively gentle smile couldn't hold back, and he asked with a pale face: "Are you really sure?" ”

After all, it's been dug for two hours, and there are so many people around to watch, if the water can't be dug up below, although the responsibility is not him, but this face is not good-looking.

"Poor road can be determined." Unexpectedly, this Taoist priest was also a backbone, and he actually withstood the pressure exerted by His Royal Highness the Second Prince, and still replied categorically.

looked at the Taoist morale and relaxed appearance. Ye Tianqing thought that either he was absolutely sure. Either he has something to rely on, and he is not afraid of what the second prince will do to him, so he decisively ordered: "Since this gentleman is so sure, then continue to dig down." Dig down two or three feet. ”

When the crowd heard. All are a little dumbfounded. It's really Ye Tianqing's order that is too unexpected, it has been dug for nearly five zhang, but when she exits, it is two or three zhang. How can you dig a well that deepest?

However, since this was an order given by the young lady, the villagers had to obey the order, and immediately agreed and shouted again and dug up.

Actually, what everyone doesn't know is that Ye Tianqing is afraid of trouble when he says so much.

After all, since the big pit was dug three feet deep, the onlookers began to talk about it.

Some guessed that the water would come out of the next moment, and some were worried that the water would not come out, and then after a while, the villagers who were digging the soil and carrying the rocks would ask if they were about to get out of the water, and if they wanted to continue digging down.

Fortunately, Ye Tianqing asked people to dig a big pit at the beginning, and while digging down, he inserted a torch on the edge of the pit to illuminate it, if he dug an ordinary well, he might not be able to see the situation below even during the day, let alone at night.

After waiting for a while, Ye Tianqing looked at the dirt and gravel dug up, which were still dry and did not look like there was water, and couldn't help but whisper to his mother: "Mother, the hour is not early, otherwise, you can go back and rest first." ”

"It's okay, then mother will go back first." Mother Ye also knew that waiting any longer would make her daughter worried, after all, her body was not yet well, and if it was affected, it would not be good to cause an attack of old diseases.

So he nodded to Ye Tianqing, and whispered to the second prince Jin Han and others on the side, and then wanted to get up and leave.

But at this moment, a word came from the bottom of the pit, saying that they could not go any further, because a large stone that occupied almost the entire bottom of the pit was blocked below.

"What's going on?" The face of the second prince Jiang Shunhua was a little green, and under the light of the torches, whether bright or dark, he looked a little hideous.

"Go back to His Royal Highness the Second Prince, dig up the boulder, maybe there is an underground river under the boulder, as long as the boulder is pierced, it should be able to get out of the water." The middle-aged Taoist priest who was stared at by the second prince with a gloomy face still did not say a word, and calmly bowed to him and replied.

"With such a large area of boulders, and I don't know how thick the boulders are, wouldn't it take a lot of effort to chisel them?" When the second prince heard this, he didn't show a smile, and still asked with an unkind face.

"It's not clear." The middle-aged Taoist priest nodded.

"That's a real problem, if the stone is only two or three feet thick, then with a little more effort, you can always chisel it through, but if there is one two or three feet or more, it will be difficult." Ye Tianqing didn't know what to do for a while.

After all, the hour is not early, and if you are unlucky, the boulder below is too large, and it will be boring to dig overnight.

"Ben Gongzi go down and have a look." But at this moment, a tall and straight white figure with long hair and a shawl fell fluttering towards the bottom of the pit.

But it was Jin Han who changed into a white brocade robe after bathing!

"Master Jin Shaozhuang, be careful, come up quickly." When Ye Mu saw it, she immediately anxiously stopped her, but where could she still see Jin Han's figure.

"This prince will also go down and have a look." This one hasn't come back yet, and the second prince Jiang Shunhua actually came to add to the chaos, and after leaving a sentence, he also floated down.

"Qing'er, how is this good, why did they go to the bottom of the pit? What if something happens? "It's better for Guang Jinhan to go down alone, as soon as the two princes go, Mother Ye immediately held her daughter's hand anxiously.

"Mother don't worry, they are all people with martial arts, and they will be fine." Ye Tianqing couldn't think of what they were going to do when they went down, so she could only persuade her mother while asking Zi Die and Huang Li to come over and support her mother, and then said: "Mother, you can wait up there with peace of mind, and my daughter will also go down to have a look, and persuade the two of them to come up by the way." ”

Ye Mu wanted to stop it, but Ye Tianqing didn't give time to stop it, and the detailed and agile figure also floated down.

In fact, not only Ye Tianqing, I believe that Jin Han and the second prince also used their toes to click on the pit to avoid borrowing force when they floated down, but ordinary people couldn't see their movements clearly.

"His Royal Highness the Second Prince, Master Jin Shaozhuang, what are you doing?" When Ye Tianqing went down to the bottom of the pit and saw what the two noble and handsome noblemen had done, he immediately exclaimed.
