Chapter 124: Exploring the Well
"Grandma, this matter has nothing to do with me, it's useless to escape, do you want to take me to sacrifice to the Great Immortal, or give it to the people in the city, it's up to you, but don't bother my grandma again", Lin Mu said with a firm look in his eyes.
"Lin Mu, we didn't want to come to you to ask for your guilt, we just wanted to ask you about some things to help the people in this city, including you, don't you want to do this", Lin Tang said.
"It's too difficult, I just went to save my father, I offended the great immortals, so the people in the city became like this, it was my fault, I am willing to bear it, you don't bother the immortals anymore, otherwise I don't know what kind of disaster I will bring to the people in this city", Lin Mu said coldly.
"Hmph, what a big immortal, isn't it just a monster, my grandson will help you get rid of it", Sun Wukong listened to so many things about his mother-in-law, and finally got annoyed, and said noisily.
"You little monk, you say it lightly, you can't even find the shadow of the great immortal, and you say that you want to get rid of him", the old woman listened to Sun Wukong's words and felt that he was bragging.
"This old man, my senior brother can really subdue demons and eliminate demons, you also want to return to your previous normal life, why do you have to accept your fate, it is better to give us a chance to be a dead horse and a live horse doctor", Lin Tang said.
"Lin Tang, show them a hand", Sun Wukong said.
When Lin Tang heard this, he looked around, there was a big stone grinding noodles over there, Lin Tang went over, calmed down, carried it with both hands, and moved the stone over, this is not the end, Lin Tang said again, "You get out of the way, don't hurt you."
Lin Mu's ancestor, who was shocked by Lin Tang's divine power just now, retreated back in a trance, and saw Lin Tang's palm erected, took a deep breath, and slashed down, and actually split the grinding stone in half.
When Lin Mu saw it, he no longer hesitated, knelt down with a plop, and said, "This great immortal, please save us."
Lin Tang couldn't cry or laugh, no matter who the people in this city were, as long as they saw the powerful ones, they were all called Great Immortals, Lin Tang hurriedly stepped forward, helped the man up, and said, "You're welcome, the purpose of our visit is to help you, as long as you tell us the original story of what you saw the monster, we will definitely do our best to get rid of this monster."
Lin Mu didn't hesitate anymore, invited Lin Tang and the others into the house, and the old woman went to pour water for them again.
"Among the people who guarded the disappearance of the well was my father, I never believed that my father had disappeared like this, and I never gave up looking for him, but since the accident next to the well, the place was sealed, and I could only sneak out in the middle of the night to look for him, but I never found anything until one day..." Lin Mu recalled.
"As usual, I went out in the dead of night to check on the well, and by that time, as usual, there was nothing strange about it, but just as I was about to approach the well, there was a sudden fog, and the fog was so thick that I could not see the houses around me."
"I waved vigorously, and I saw a small child in front of me, as tall as we are now, I didn't think much about it at the time, thinking that the child of which family was lost, but I didn't expect that it was so late, where would an ordinary child run out, and when I wanted to hold him, I listened to him."
"I originally wanted to come one by one, but I didn't expect that there was really a person who was not afraid of death, since this is the case, I will give you a little hardship first, after saying this, he waved his hand in front of my eyes, and I fainted, and when I woke up, the city became like this."
"You are also stupid, you don't say that this matter has anything to do with you, that late in the middle of the night, who can know, you see you like a rat crossing the street, why bother", Zhu Bajie said with a snort.
"How can this be done, I provoked this incident, I have to bear it, how can I hide because I am afraid of something, my father will definitely beat me if he knows about it", Lin Mu said.
"His father is like this, he went to see the well before, it was not his turn, and he volunteered to guard the inhabitants of the city, and now life and death are unknown", the old woman said, and began to cry, and Lin Mu hurriedly went to comfort him.
Everyone was touched by the loyalty of Lin Mu's father and son, "Old man, don't worry, my apprentices will definitely help you catch that monster out and rescue the captured residents", Tang Seng comforted.
"Master, what you promised was light, this monster was terrible when I heard it, and now we haven't even met yet, so you agree", Zhu Bajie complained.
"You person, how can you be so ruthless, if you don't want to go, I'll go by myself, and use me to exchange those few people who were taken away, hum", Tang Seng said and was about to get up.
"Hey, Master", Lin Tang hurriedly comforted Tang Seng, "Of course we will catch that monster, the second senior brother is hard-mouthed, don't worry about him, how can you let you play."
"That's it, Master", Zhu Bajie saw that Tang Seng was angry, and quickly admitted his mistake, "Master, you don't know my old pig yet, I just talk about it, it's the most kind-hearted, right, senior brother."
Sun Wukong glanced at Zhu Bajie, jumped a step, stepped forward to appease Tang Seng together, and said that he promised to go to the well tonight to check, and Tang Seng was relieved.
The old woman prepared a meal for the five masters and apprentices, and let them have a full meal, and waited quietly for midnight to go to the well to check.
"Elder, can I go with you," Lin Mu said after eating.
"This..." Sun Wukong hesitated and said, "This monster doesn't seem to be a thing in the pool, you are a mortal, I'm afraid it's dangerous to go."
"Elder, the disasters in this city are all caused by me, if I don't solve them myself, I'm afraid this will become a knot in my heart, and my father is still there with that monster, as a son of man, my father can't be rescued when he is in trouble, what kind of man is he, please do it all the elders", Lin Mu said firmly.
Seeing this, Lin Tang also helped Lin Mu say good or bad, "Senior brother, I can also understand this mood, my father's life and death are unknown now, where can he sit still as a child, and Lin Mu is the only one who has seen that monster, and it is also good for us to find the place where the monster came from."
"Yes, yes, I'm the only one who has seen that monster, Elder, I can't go if I don't go," Lin Mu hurriedly said.
Seeing that what Lin Tang and Lin Mu said was indeed reasonable, Sun Wukong nodded slowly and said, "Then you remember, when you get there, you will definitely not act without authorization, follow us closely, don't be impulsive."
"Hmmm! Thank you, Elder!" Lin Mu saw that Sun Wukong finally relented, and said excitedly.
Waiting for late at night, Sun Wukong arranged for Sha Seng to protect Tang Seng and the old woman in Lin Mu's house, and the four of them set off, the city experienced such a strange thing, not to mention the three watches in the middle of the night, even during the day, there were not many people, especially next to this well.
Even the nearby families moved away, and the four of them came unimpeded, not worrying about anyone coming out to see it at all. When he was about to approach the well, Lin Tang raised his hand to signal to listen, and looked carefully, the well looked like an ordinary well from the outside, and there was no fog.
"Lin Mu, did anything special happen before you saw the fog last time?" Lin Tang asked.
Lin Mu racked his brain and said, "I only paid all my attention to the well at that time, and I didn't pay attention to the changes around me before the fog."
Lin Mu couldn't get any effective information here, Lin Tang and the others had to slowly approach the well, looking around, it was pitch black all around, there was no light at all, fortunately, Lin Tang's eyes were much better since he started learning the law with Sun Wukong, and he could see clearly in the dark.
A few people paid attention to protecting the trees, and when they arrived at the well, Sun Wukong took the lead in jumping over, looking left and right, no matter how you look at it, this is an ordinary well, and there is really nothing suspicious.
Lin Tang went up and touched the wall of the well, there was nothing strange, even the moss on the wall of the well was carefully observed, and he almost demolished the well, but he still found nothing.
"Hey, according to my old pig, I will tear down this well, what are the demons and monsters in it, I have to show up, and I need to sneak out in the middle of the night to see", Zhu Bajie dozed off and said, "My old pig is sleepy, Brother Monkey, I think we should go back and think about it in the long run."
