Chapter 640: Chang'an Ancient Well
"That ancient well is in the center of the village, if you can't find it, you can use the compass," Yan Dang looked very pained, "I'll go up and wait for you first, I won't accompany you." With that, Yan Dang grabbed the dirt above and climbed back directly.
Wei Chiran looked curiously at the hole that seemed to appear out of thin air in mid-air, and guessed: "Senior, this should not be considered underground. ”
Hu Shuntang agreed: "I think it should be regarded as an other space, go, no matter what, find the soul coffin first." ”
According to the compass, the two quickly found the ancient well where the soul coffin was located, and this time they found a treasure with almost no effort, which was the easiest time in the process of finding the treasure. However, the two people standing by the well still looked around with palpitations, after all, in Yan Dang's experience, when he came to the well, those strange villagers also surrounded him.
The two looked around, deliberately stood there for a long time, and found that the villagers were not surrounded, so the two tied a rope to the stone tablet next to them, Wei Chiran stayed, and Hu Shuntang followed the rope to the well to find the coffin of the soul suppression.
However, after Hu Shuntang went into the water, except for the bodies of the villagers who were soaked and swollen in the water, he did not find the soul coffin, even if he dived to the bottom of the well. Helpless, he had to climb up along the rope to tell Wei Chiran the news.
"How could it not be?" Wei Chi couldn't figure it out, "Is it gone?" ”
Hu Shuntang said: "Could it be that Yan Dang took away the soul coffin?" ”
Wei Chiran said: "How can he take it, such a big coffin, he can't take it alone, even if he gets it, how can he get it back to the ground?" That's not realistic, is it? ”
When the two were puzzled, Hu Shuntang's attention was on the stone tablet next to him: "Although this Buffalo Dam Village is very similar to the one I went to back then, it is not the same one, it is completely different, for example, this well is different, what is going on?" ”
After the split of the source world, it stands to reason that there will be Buffalo Dam Village in every world, and the reason why Hu Shuntang came to the second world is because most of the treasures are in this world, and the chance of finding the soul coffin here is the greatest, and from Yan Dang's mouth, he also learned that the soul coffin is indeed here.
At this moment, Hu Shuntang approached the stele and looked at the inscription on it, and then asked Wei Chi to take water and splash it on it, only then did he see that there were faint small characters under the inscriptions on the stele, and those words were the secret text of the different way.
The two couldn't understand it, so they had to take a picture of the inscription, and then quickly left, ready to pass it to He Changqing for him to translate and see what was recorded on it.
The two returned to the house and found that Yan Dang was still there and did not escape, Hu Shuntang dispelled his previous thoughts, if Yan Dang stole the soul coffin, he would have run away at this time, and he would not still stay here.
The two did not find the soul coffin, which surprised Yan Dang, and Yan Dang even wanted to go down immediately to check it again, but was stopped by Wei Chi: "It's useless, it's really not down there, I don't know what's going on." ”
Hu Shuntang asked Yan Dang's experience again, Yan Dang was still 1510, and he said it as it was, and the two couldn't hear anything wrong, so they could only let Yan Dang stay here for the time being and not go away.
After the two returned to the town to live, they sent the photos they took one by one to He Changqing, and asked He Changqing to translate what was written in the ciphertext above.
He Changqing asked the two of them to give him two hours, and he would naturally reply to them after two hours.
Two hours later, He Changqing called the two of them back, informing them that what was recorded in the inscription was not the matter of the soul coffin, but that the well was migrated from Chang'an.
"Migrated from Chang'an?" Wei Chiran looked at Hu Shuntang next to him suspiciously, he had heard that people can be moved, and even houses can be moved, but how can the well be moved?
Hu Shuntang said: "How could it be migrated? ”
He Changqing said: "The cipher text says that the original location of this well is in Jiulipo Town, outside the south gate of Chang'an, where I know, there is indeed an ancient well, but it has been protected by the local area, and there are very few tourists. ”
Wei Chiran said: "Master, you pass the address to me, and we will rush to Chang'an immediately." ”
After He Changqing passed the address to the two, the two immediately rushed to Chang'an, but they didn't know that they had been quietly followed.
The stalker followed the two all the way to Chang'an, and after noting down the hotel and room number where they were staying, the stalker made a mysterious phone call, and the person on the other end of the phone was Saker.
After the tracker reported the information, the Saker smiled: "Sure enough, as I thought, they followed the clues, and if they want to find the answer, they still have to rely on these heroes, hahaha-"
The stalker just asks, "So, what's next?" ”
Saker said: "You follow them, report the situation at any time, depending on the situation, I will tell you what to do." ”
The stalker hung up the phone, looked up at the hotel, and walked into the crowd.
Wei Chiran and Hu Shuntang, who put down their luggage in the hotel, immediately took a taxi to the former site of the winery outside the south gate of Chang'an City. The winery outside the city gate has become a restaurant, but the owner of the restaurant is still quite careful, did not destroy the dry ancient well, but left, which is a feature of the hotel, and also fenced around for diners to visit, and a special monument was erected next to it to write the legend of this well.
The two pretended to be tourists eating, and after ordering a table of dishes, they paid the bill first, so as not to be driven away, and then came to the well to look, the stele was nothing to look at, it was all newly repaired, and naturally there would be no ciphertext on it, so the attention could only be on the dry well.
It's just that the two of them couldn't see the well at all because they were standing too far away.
Wei Chiran took advantage of the fact that there was no one around to guard, stepped over the fence to look at the well, and as soon as he probed, he was scolded by the man with the manager's card on his chest, but after hearing that the two were diners, he immediately put on a smiling face, saying that it was for their consideration, after all, it was too dangerous.
Wei Chiran said disapprerovingly: "Just take a look, there will be no danger." ”
The manager said, "You guys, it's too simple. ”
The manager seemed to have something to say, Hu Shuntang and Wei Chi glanced at each other, and when they were eating, they specially called the manager over, and had to invite him to eat and drink on the grounds of inquiring about the surrounding tourist attractions. The manager saw that the two were so enthusiastic, and ordered a large table of dishes, and a bottle of wine cost thousands of yuan, knowing that it was a big household, so he sat down and talked to the two.
The three of them chatted about the attractions in Chang'an City, and finally talked about this well, and the manager said that he was actually the descendant of this winery through the strength of the wine, and after the defeat of the family, he tossed and turned for a long time, and finally returned to the old mansion to be a lobby manager, and I don't know if it is a trick of fate.
It didn't take much effort to break through the iron shoes and find nowhere to get them, but I didn't expect this lobby manager to be the descendant of this winery.
Wei Chiran asked: "I read the introduction, this well dried up for some reason, what is going on?" ”
The lobby manager said: "Listen to my grandfather, this matter originated from a Taoist priest......"
Hu Shuntang wondered: "Taoist priest? ”
That year, Chang'an was hit by a drought, and most of the wells dried up, and the wells of the winery were no exception. But the winery has a big deal anyway, and the family is well-off, so it is not as difficult as ordinary people to use water and draft, but it is also very difficult.
One day, the winery took in a wandering Taoist priest, who said that in order to repay them, he decided to help them look at feng shui, and after looking at it for a long time, he mysteriously said that there was a problem with the well in the winery, and the drought was also caused by this well. People like him can see that those royal mages will definitely find out sooner or later, and the whole family of the winery will suffer at that time.
At that time, the family members of the winery panicked after hearing this, and would rather believe it or not, so they hurriedly asked what to do?
The Taoist priest said: "You must open the eyes of the well, as long as the well is opened, there will be no problem, after the well water comes out, the drought will pass, and when the sky rains nectar, the disaster of your family will also be over." ”
As for how to open their eyes, the Taoist priest asked them to put up a shelf around the well, and the whole family left the house with valuables, leaving him alone, and during his practice, he could not be seen by others, and at least he was given a day.
Originally, the whole family was worried that the Taoist priest was a thief, but the Taoist priest reminded them to bring valuables, so they didn't feel anything, anyway, there would be no loss, and the Taoist priest didn't want any money, so they left home for a day according to the Taoist priest's instructions.
A day later, when they returned, the priest stayed where they were, and the shelves had been dismantled, and miraculously there was water in the well, and it was about to come out, and coincidentally, two days later it rained and the drought was relieved.
Although the drought has eased, the taste of the well water has changed, and the sake brewed each time is not as good as before, and even the water still has a strong fishy smell, not so much drinking as drinking blood, and the business of the brewery has plummeted.
This went on for about a year, and after a year, the Taoist priest returned, and the owner of the winery was angry, and asked him what was going on? The Taoist priest just said that a dragon died in the well, and the dragon's blood polluted the well water, and mortals could not drink the dragon's blood, so naturally the business would plummet.
The owner of the winery was furious when he heard these nonsense, and at this moment, one of the servants of the family disappeared, and he mysteriously disappeared while he was fetching water at the well.
At that time, there were two people, one was lazy next to him, and the other was fetching water, and when the lazy one came to his senses, the other disappeared, and he began to think that the other party was joking, and after thinking about it, he felt that it was wrong, and thought that the person must have fallen into the well, but he did not hear the sound of things falling into the water, and when he checked the well, he did not see anyone, and in desperation, he had to report the situation to the owner of the winery.
