I looked at the rune paper at the mouth of the well, and the faint green flames burned in the ancient well, and I couldn't help but be secretly taken aback.

Under normal circumstances, if there are no evil things in a place, then the rune paper will not burn a green flame, and only in places where there are ghosts or monsters appear, the rune paper will appear green.

Of course, this is the kind of rune paper that I learned to draw with Jiu Ye, I don't know if the rune paper in Ma Xiaoting's hand is different from the one used by the people in Zhenyin.

However, there are some places where the rune paper in the folk Taoist gate is common.

Except for the Miao Jiang Witch Gu Technique, and some secret sects of the folk that will create their own unique secret method carriers, most of the Daomen's rune paper is derived from Zhengyi.

I secretly recalled that half a year ago, I died in this ancient well, and it was from this ancient well that Li Cripple released the fox demon named Hu Xin'er.

Could it be that the demonic aura of the fox demon has not yet dissipated, so Ma Xiaoting's rune paper will emit a dark green flame in the well?

After I saw this situation, I suppressed my inner thoughts, and did not show surprise, but quietly paid attention to Ma Xiaoting and Li Kebin's reactions.

I saw that Ma Xiaoting's expression became incomprehensible, and she said to herself: "This village is really interesting, and even the ancient well is strange." ”

Li Kebin said: "Ma Xiaoting, what did you find? ”

Ma Xiaoting said: "In this well, there seems to be other demonic energy, and when it gets completely dark, let's find a time to go down to the well to have a look." ”

Hearing Ma Xiaoting say this, I couldn't help but chuckle in my heart.

If she wanted to go down the well, would she find the sarcophagus that trapped Hu Xin'er at that time, and then involve some unnecessary trouble.

As soon as I thought of this, I said, "This ancient well is said to be more than 100 years old, and it is not safe for us to go on like this, regardless of whether there is a clue in it or not." ”

Ma Xiaoting looked at me and said with a strange expression: "It's just the next well, what's not safe." ”

I couldn't help laughing and said: "This ancient well has existed for so many years, and there may be a lot of toxic gas underground, and it is very dangerous for us to go down rashly." At least you have to be well prepared, no. ”

Judging from my first impression of Ma Xiaoting, she is more confident and has her own thoughts. From this alone, it may be difficult to convince her not to go down the well.

Moreover, I could already feel in her determined eyes that she was going down into the well.

Still, what I said to her was just a delaying tactic. I quietly wanted to find an opportunity to call the ninth master and indirectly ask him what the current situation in this well is.

Li Kebin's face became a little ugly, and he said: "I grew up in this village since I was a child, and I really didn't find anything special about our village, why did it become so weird when I came back this time." Are you sure you're not mistaken? ”

Ma Xiaoting said confidently: "Li Kebin, how long have you been partnering with me?" ”

Li Kebin said: "Do you still need to ask this!" ”

Ma Xiaoting snorted and said, "Then you still doubt that I will be wrong?" ”

After listening to Ma Xiaoting's words, Li Kebin didn't ask anything, and asked me instead: "Third brother, after you dug up the arrow stele, a few people died in the village mysteriously, so that there was a flash flood after that, killing more than 100 villagers, and there were no other strange things." ”

When I heard this, I said without changing my face: "After that, nothing else happened, didn't my arrow tablet be dug up, so my senior brother came to me, saying that the tablet that protected me no longer exists, and it is best to learn Taoist secret techniques from him to cultivate myself." ”

After listening to my words, Li Kebin began to think about it.

At this time, Ma Xiaoting said: "Don't care how many strange things have happened here, we are just to check the dragon this time, every penny is worth everything, and I don't want to do more." ”

Ma Xiaoting, a girl, sometimes feels very powerful, but occasionally a sentence pops out of her mouth, and people can't help but want to laugh when they hear it.

She's realistic, practical. I really feel the taste of office workers from her, she collects a fee if she does her best, and she doesn't want to work overtime, so it's okay for such a person.

Li Kebin's thoughts seemed to be interrupted by Ma Xiaoting's words, and said: "I have to protect his safety by involving the third brother in this matter, since our village has caused such problems because of his arrow blocking monument, I can't guarantee that my third brother will be entangled in something." ”

Ma Xiaoting said with a cold face: "That's a matter between your brothers, but it has nothing to do with me." ”

Her words suddenly made my heart cold, I didn't expect that Ma Xiaoting was not only a very realistic person, but also seemed to be a little unkind.

Because she is so good-looking, it turns out that she is a master who doesn't talk about feelings.

I finally began to understand what Li Kebin said to me in the city, saying that Ma Xiaoting was a little cold. In this way, Ma Xiaoting has a cold style in her bones.

Li Kebin said: "Ma Xiaoting, aside from my brotherly relationship with Thirteen, he is an important clue person for our list, have you forgotten our rules, and you must protect the person who provides clues." ”

I thought that these two people in front of me were more energetic at this time.

I had no choice but to say: "Okay, Abin, Xiaoting, don't talk about it, don't worry about my own affairs, I'll take care of it myself." Let's investigate the problem of dragon corpses! ”

Speaking of which, I don't bother to think too much, anyway, our village has been targeted by them, and they will check it if they want to.

Of course, I also have selfish intentions, because I have a lot of confusion and confusion in my heart.

However, what I am interested in is not about this dragon, but because I suspect that when Jiu Ye and Liu Ruoxue chatted before, they both mentioned something sixty years ago.

I would love to know what happened to our village 60 years ago.

Originally, I wanted to wait for my grandfather to wake up and ask him directly. However, on that time on the dam, the souls of the villagers were sucked by the python before the dragon, and what happened afterwards made me realize that I couldn't ask anything from my grandfather.

That time, the ninth master rescued the villagers, and he didn't know what tricks he used, so that those villagers all forgot some of the things they had done. Well, what happened sixty years ago is likely to be unknown to even the oldest villagers.

Sure enough, as I thought.

None of the elderly people in our village, including my grandfather, had heard of what happened at Baofeng Temple 60 years ago.

Li Kebin sighed, patted me on the shoulder and said, "Third brother, don't be angry, Ma Xiaoting, this girl, is straightforward and fast-talking, but she is not bad at all." ”

I laughed and said, "It's a bit old, even if you want to go down this well, you have to wait until it's completely dark." Let's go back to dinner first, get some tools ready and go down the well! ”

Hearing me say this, Ma Xiaoting's face changed suddenly, and she said, "Wu Thirteen, I love to hear what you say." ”

I froze. secretly thinking about this girl, it's really enough, her mood changes so fast, she can be an actress.

When we returned home from the dry well, my grandfather had already fried four or five home-cooked dishes, and when he saw that we were back, he told us to hurry up and eat.

Ma Xiaoting looked at a table of dishes, clapped her hands happily and said, "Grandpa, your craftsmanship is so good, I can already smell the fragrance outside the door." ”

Don't look at my grandfather, who is already an old man in his twilight years, he was so praised by Ma Xiaoting's sister-in-law, and he was as happy as a child.

After watching my grandfather busy at the stove, I hurried to help him turn the stove so he could just stir-fry.

Looking at my grandfather's figure, I had mixed feelings in my heart.

Since I was a child, I have been closest to my grandfather, and I really hope that my grandfather will never get old.

I thought to myself, and suddenly I felt a gaze linger on me.

I turned my head to look at Ma Xiaoting, who was sitting at the kitchen door.

She rested her hands on her cheeks, and her big eyes stared at me. The fire sparkled in her eyes, and there were tears in her eyes.

Li Kebin was helping my grandfather carry the last two dishes to the table, I got up and walked to him and asked him softly: "Abin, why did you make Ma Xiaoting cry!" ”

Li Kebin looked at Ma Xiaoting, and then at my grandfather, and seemed to understand something. He leaned into my ear and said in a low voice, "Maybe she saw your grandfather and missed her family!" ”

I whispered: "Hey, too, such a young girl, she left her parents and went to the rivers and lakes to make a living by herself, and it is inevitable that she will miss her relatives." ”

Li Kebin pulled me aside and said, "Be quiet, Ma Xiaoting has been an orphan since she was a child, and her parents and grandparents are long gone." She grew up with her aunt. ”

After listening to Li Kebin's story, I suddenly felt uncomfortable in my heart, and at the same time, I was also surprised in my heart, she is now about 20 years old, how could she become Li Kebin's colleague, and she is still wandering around.

I wondered, "Abin, how could Xiaoting do these top-secret missions with you?" ”

Li Kebin thought for a while and said: "This matter, if you are familiar with her in the future, you can ask yourself, I can't talk about her private affairs." ”

I thought to myself, he said the same, I'm a man, why are I gossiping about other people's privacy here.

During the meal, Ma Xiaoting didn't seem to be as active as before, and her mood seemed to be a little low.

My grandfather saw that she was eating very slowly, and she was a little absent-minded, so he asked, "Girl, is this kind of food not suitable for your appetite, what flavor do you like, tell me, and I will go and fry two more dishes for you." ”

Saying that, my grandfather was about to get up, but Ma Xiaoting grabbed her grandfather, with a little tears in her eyes. "Grandpa, no need, the food you cooked tastes good."

My grandfather saw tears in Ma Xiaoting's eyes and said in surprise: "Oh, girl, why are you crying?" ”

Ma Xiaoting squeezed out a smile and said, "Grandpa, I didn't cry, I accidentally picked up the vegetables and splashed the chili water in my eyes." ”

When Grandpa heard this, he hurriedly said, "Then you wait, I'll get you a wet veil!" ”

I said, "Grandpa, let me go!" ”

Before I could finish speaking, I had already stepped out to get the wet cloth. Ma Xiaoting took the handkerchief, wiped her eyes, and whispered thank you to me.

If Li Kebin hadn't told me Ma Xiaoting's family situation, I might have thought that Ma Xiaoting was getting chili water into her eyes, but in fact, she had never touched a dish with chili peppers.

After eating, Ma Xiaoting asked to help my grandfather wash the dishes and chopsticks, and my grandfather forced me to pull her back, saying that we should have a good chat with a few young people.

Ma Xiaoting said: "It can be seen that you and your grandfather have a good relationship!" ”

I laughed and said, "I've been following my grandfather since I was a child, and he was the one who pulled me up with a handful of and urine!" ”

I didn't say that I had never met my parents, because I was afraid that saying this would arouse Ma Xiaoting's sadness.

Ma Xiaoting looked at the night outside the courtyard, looked melancholy, and whispered: "If my grandfather is still in the world, he should be almost like you!" ”

I was about to speak, but Ma Xiaoting said indifferently: "Okay! The time was almost up, Li Kebin and I were ready to prepare, and in the dead of night, we would go down to the well to have a look. Wu Thirteen, don't follow us down. ”

I couldn't help but look stunned, with a hint of inexplicable worry, and said, "Ma Xiaoting, can you not go down that well?" ”
