Chapter 21: The Dry Well

Walking and walking, Lao Chen and Uncle Qin had already stepped into a no-man's land.

This is the uninhabited area of Wutong Island, and the road in Xizhen goes all the way to the west, and at the end of it is a large jungle, which is not developed, and many parts of the island are not developed, and those places are covered by a group of vegetation. The asphalt road naturally disappeared from here.

By the moonlight, the shadowy plants in the mountains and forests swayed in the wind, and the shadows were placed there like paper-cut paintings.

"I heard that this place will be developed into a scenic spot in the future. Because of the bad light, Uncle Qin squinted his eyes slightly and muttered.

"The terrain here is so high that the sea can't flood it, and it's not uncommon for it to be developed into a scenic spot. Lao Chen said.

Indeed, the terrain here is much higher than that of East and West Town, and it is estimated that a large part of the reason for the development of East and West Town is because of the topography, Uncle Qin and Lao Chen can clearly feel that they have been going uphill all the way.

Although the road has been cut off from here, there is still a dirt road that has been stepped on by man, and the narrow path is like a small snake winding and crawling, stretching into the depths of the jungle, and there is no end in sight.

There are a lot of big trees here, and the hidden leaves block most of the moonlight, but fortunately, the moon is very large today, and through the gaps in the leaves, it still casts a large speckled moonlight on the earth, densely packed like glowing fragments, so as not to plunge the two of them into a complete darkness.

But even if they were plunged into complete darkness, it would be nothing, they were Assassins, and the Assassins should have long been accustomed to the darkness.

They walked swiftly through the darkness, as if they were walking on the ground, and were not disturbed by the unfamiliar darkness at all.

"They're in the mountain ahead. Lao Chen looked at the mountain peak not far in front of him, as if it had been pulled up from the ground, thin and lonely.

"It seems that we still have a long way to go!" Uncle Qin stretched his waist and blinked tiredly, admiring the short old Chen beside him a little in his heart.

"It's not the top of the mountain, it's inside a hole at the bottom of the mountain. Lao Chen closed his eyes and sensed it.

Uncle Qin was stunned for a moment, and secretly sighed that fortunately he and Lao Chen were in the same camp, if he remembered the smell, even the ends of the earth would not be able to escape his pursuit.

This is Lao Chen's exclusive skill, his sense of smell is extremely sensitive, his nose was seriously injured in the early years, and his sense of smell was in a period of failure for a long time, he used his ability to restore his injury, but his sense of smell still could not be restored, and then somehow, it suddenly recovered, and the efficiency is comparable to that of all creatures, it is really a blessing in disguise.

His sense of smell could cover the entire West Town, and even if that person was hiding underground, he could find it.

The two of them walked towards the peak of the mountain non-stop, silent all the way, both of them walked in a straight line with tacit understanding, if they followed the path that was artificially trodden, at least they had to walk until dawn to reach the cave.

The trail is covered with vegetation, with thorny weeds growing in all directions. The woods stood around them, encircling them, but they still couldn't stop them from moving.

After a while, the mountain peaks were getting closer and closer to them, the road ahead became open and clear, and many plants were cleared, which was a symbol of someone having been cleaned.

Uncle Qin could see the outline of the cave from a distance, the irregularly shaped pitch-black cave mouth, in the shape of a "human", which was obviously a crack at the bottom of the mountain.

If they were not mistaken, the young man and Wang Laojiu would meet here, and the poor bounty figure would also hide here.

The two couldn't help but quicken their pace.

Walking and walking, suddenly, Lao Chen stopped suddenly, Uncle Qin was puzzled by his movements, but soon, he realized that Lao Chen might have found the traces of the young man, he looked around, and there was a vegetation hidden under the shadows.

"What's wrong?" Uncle Qin tried his best to keep his voice low, because what he had to do now was not to startle the snake.

"Cover your ears. Lao Chen's face was pale, dignified as a mountain.

Uncle Qin hurriedly covered his ears with his hands, he would not despise Lao Chen's words and judgments.

"Woo woo woo woo-" A melodious flute sound came from somewhere, through the gap between Uncle Qin's fingers, and entered his ears.

In an instant, the sky was spinning in Uncle Qin's head, his spirit was suffering a great blow, and an extreme feeling of dizziness spread in his head, almost spreading all over his brain.

Damn! It's the flute! We've been discovered!

Lao Chen's face remained unchanged, his majestic spiritual power was being released, and a layer of faint white light was crawling around his body, and he was using his spiritual power to resist this strange flute sound!

Uncle Qin was terrified, the reason why they were able to have a different strength from ordinary people was entirely because of their spiritual power, but now that Lao Chen was releasing his spiritual power, it seemed that he was not a little bit interested in this flute!

"What are you waiting for? It's useless to cover your ears! It's useless if you can't do absolute sound insulation. Old Chen roared.

Uncle Qin looked surprised, but he couldn't think about it too much, he closed his eyes, and his divine consciousness was urging spiritual power, so a faint white light began to appear around his body.

After less than half a moment, the sound of the flute stopped.

Out of the darkness in front of him came a young man, wearing a black tracksuit, holding a turquoise jade flute in his hand, and looking at the two with a sneer.

The white light on Lao Chen's body slowly weakened, and finally fell completely silent.

"Why did you two find this place all the way?" the young man's voice was very magnetic, with a wicked nature.

"Little friend. Lao Chen pretended to raise the corners of his mouth easily, "The flute is good." ”

The young man sneered and flipped the flute in his hand, unable to hide the smugness on his face: "Of course, this is my flute, it will definitely be good." ”

Lao Chen couldn't find words for a while, but Uncle Qin on the side stood up, his eyes full of hostility: "Boy, you really don't know the severity of your dismount!"

The young man smiled sarcastically with a breezy face, and he put the flute in his hand into the chic long pocket around his waist, which he himself made especially for the flute.

"You're the one who followed me. The young man smiled, looked at Uncle Qin, and was not at all intimidated by his fierce eyes, "It's not a bad thing to give you a little bit of dismount, at least let you realize that I am not easy to mess with." ”

Uncle Qin clenched his fists, furious, and ready to attack, Lao Chen on the side stopped his chest with a big hand, suggesting that he should not be impulsive.

"I would venture to ask, where did you get your flute?" Lao Chen tried his best to restrain his excitement.

The young man was still smiling, his face did not change, and he did not feel a trace of panic about the two people in front of him whose strength was unknown: "I can't tell you this." ”

Lao Chen was speechless for a while, and he didn't know how to ask.

"Then I'll ask you one more question. Uncle Qin's hand was in his pocket, "Where is Wang Laojiu now?"

"He?" the boy suddenly laughed, "He's still in that alley!"

"What?" Uncle Qin was stunned, "He's not with you?"

"Why is he with me?" said the boy, "how could he leave without a bounty?"

......

The red slap marks on Qing Youshan's face were particularly conspicuous, his face was slightly swollen, Li Enshi blushed with shame, wrapped in the quilt and shrunk in the corner of the bed, even if he was frightened and aggrieved in his eyes.

Anyone who sees this mess will be afraid.

Li Enshi didn't even know how he fainted, but his eyes went black in an instant, and he lost consciousness.

"Don't hide, no one is watching you here. Qing Youshan said helplessly.

"What's wrong with them? Why did they all fall to the ground. Li Enshi's gaze crossed Qingyoushan, and his gaze wandered over the fallen men on the ground.

"I don't know. "Qingyou Mountain Road, "They are all killers!"

"Killer?" Lee seemed to realize something.

"Yes, you know their goal, now the top priority is to find your father, there is no Wang Laojiu here, maybe he will go to find your father. ”

When Li Enshi heard this, he immediately reflexively jumped off the bed, and regardless of what he was wearing or a bathrobe, he just hurriedly ran outside barefoot.

Qing Youshan knew that she must have gone to find Li Chong, and now the situation is still unclear, and Li Enshi is not a fool, he must have hidden Li Chong in a very secret place. So he hurriedly followed Li Enshi towards the door.

It was still dark outside, endless night, extraordinarily long, there was no wind, everything was still like a painting.

In the picture, there are only two people who can move, Qing Youshan and Li Enshi, Li Enshi is barefoot, running towards the dry well in the middle of the courtyard, there are still many medicine jars left by those men boiling medicine in the evening, and the medicine jars that were steaming at that time are now as cold as a piece of iron.

Li Enshi squatted next to the dry well, looking inside, Qing Youshan also followed, watching Li Enshi's movements all the way, and then also learned from her, and put his head on the top of the dry well.

He was surprised to find that there was a faint light inside, very faint, which should be the reason for the long distance.

A flash of light in the dark night was extremely conspicuous, the horror on Li Enshi's face was instantly swept away, replaced by a nervous face, she raised her face, her hair was messy in front of her forehead, she looked at Qing Youshan: "Can you go down?"

"Go down?" Qing Youshan was slightly stunned, it seemed that Li Chong was going down the well now, but how to go down was a problem, the glimmer of light seemed to be a little far from the well, there was no escalator, and it was estimated that falling down would break a few bones for him.

"Yes. Lee's expression didn't look like he was joking.

"How do I go down?"

"Aren't you good at martial arts?" Li Enshi looked at him suspiciously.

"Those who know martial arts will also die. Qing Youshan was speechless.

"Okay, let's go down together. ”

"What?"

"There is a place to settle on the stone wall of this dry well, and there is a small space at the bottom, usually the medicine is done by the bodyguards, I haven't gone down, but my dad is there. Li Enshi said.
