Chapter 63: Underground Organs
I looked back at Cao Xi and Che Yongbo in confusion and said to them, "There is nothing else in the well except well water." ”
"How is that possible?" Che Yongbo walked over tremblingly and looked into the well again.
Like me, he saw well water.
Even Cao Xi didn't believe it, but all we saw was well water, and the three of us looked at each other.
Even if the old woman is lying, Cha Yongbo will definitely not lie, this is simply incredible.
Cao Xi suddenly understood a little and asked me, "My father told me that everything in this world is mutually beneficial. Do you have anything on you to ward off evil spirits? ”
Her words reminded me. In addition to the wooden figure left by my ancestors, there is also the stone tablet in my backpack.
It's very important to me, and I take it with me wherever I go. It may have something to do with it.
Che Yongbo looked at the marks left on the wall of the well and said, "It seems that someone has already gone down." ”
In fact, many forces are very interested in this well, because it is the only clue to get the key.
There must be someone who can't bear it anymore and has already gone down to see what is going on.
Cao Xi looked at the traces carefully, and more than a dozen people slid down the wall of the well.
Cao Xi said, "Looking at the direction of the footprints, it seems that only people go down, but no one has ever come up." ”
She was right, it seems that all the people who went to the well did not make it up alive.
Cao Xi frowned and said, "This matter is a bit evil, let's not rush to do it first." Wait until tomorrow when everyone comes, and see how it goes. ”
At that moment, as the surface of the water rippled slightly, I saw a pale face shake beneath the surface of the water, and then sink very quickly.
The face was so white that there was not a trace of blood, more like the face of a corpse.
Not only me, but even Cao Xi and Che Yongbo saw it. Cao Xi said in a low voice, "There is indeed something in the well." ”
I said, "Let's go back first." ”
We drove back into town and found a hotel to stay.
The next morning, we woke up early and drove to the ancient well.
The ancient well, which was deserted yesterday, has become extremely lively today, and there are already hundreds of people surrounding it.
In addition to the Su family and the Zhu family, there are dozens of people we don't know, and they must be from other organizations.
Among these people, the strongest are the Su family and the Zhu family.
Seeing us coming, Su Jintang glanced at me with disdain.
Zhu Wen still looks like a smile, and he looks very kind.
"Now that we're all here, let's get started." ”
They were all standing outside the pavilion, and no one had ever gone to the ancient well to see it. They restrain each other, and neither of them wants the others to pass first.
Hearing his words, everyone rushed to the pavilion in a swarm.
I've already done it anyway, but I'm not in a hurry.
Zhu Wen was very calm, and he led people to stand quietly in place.
Some people couldn't wait to walk towards the ancient well, and as the screams rang out one after another, people kept falling into the ancient well.
After a while, I heard the sound of water, and there was no movement after that. It seems that as soon as those men fell into the well, they lost their lives.
Su Jintang said coldly, "You rabble, just by relying on you, you also want to get the key, it's just a dream!" There are hallucinogenic things in the well, and you will definitely suffer if you rush to the past. ”
Listening to what he said, it seems that he has carefully studied this ancient well. Although Su Jintang has a short temper, he is very careful in his work.
Su Jintang said, "As far as I know, at the other end of the chain, there is no dragon locked, but a very ingenious mechanism. When the chain is pulled to a certain extent, the mechanism is pulled apart. On the other side, there is a large river, and the water will pour in from the ancient well. In other words, water gushes out of the ancient well. ”
His analysis is quite reasonable.
"What we want, it's in that big river. We had to stretch the chains just the right length so that the river couldn't rush up and the gaps in the traps were just right for people to pass through. I want to ask you, who can do it? Su Jintang said, he looked at the people present with provocative eyes.
The Su family really did their homework. He looked at Zhu Wen and asked, "You are talented people in the Pearl River Basin. Surely someone knows how to pull this chain? ”
Zhu Wen glared at him and said, "If you have a way, you can do it, if you have no way, we can naturally do it." There's no need to talk nonsense here. ”
Su Jintang laughed twice, he seemed to like to see Zhu Wen angry.
He smiled and asked, "After my reminder, I guess you know what to do, right?" Then I won't sell it to you. I specially invited Mr. Lu, the most well-known expert in the country. I've spent a lot of money, and I certainly can't let you take advantage of it. If you want to go in, give me a reward of one million yuan per person, otherwise you can only stand on it and watch the excitement. ”
This guy simply opened his mouth with a lion. For those more powerful organizations, a million dollars is nothing at all.
But for those small organizations, or those who just want to try their luck in there, it's not a small number.
Su Jintang continued, "In addition to needing money, who can enter has to be decided by our Su family. ”
This guy came to be an anti-guest, and he actually controlled the lock Longjing entirely.
Anyway, the Su family wants to have people, strength and strength, and the only one present who can compete with them is the Zhu family.
Zhu Wen frowned and asked, "Are you going to go against us with a pure heart?" ”
After saying these few words, he asked his subordinates to prepare for the move.
Zhu Wen's attention was focused on Mr. Lu, who was walking over. He looked like he was in his fifties, and his body was so thin that it seemed like a gust of wind could blow him away.
He wore a somewhat dirty blue coat with a pencil in his ear and looked more like a village carpenter.
In fact, Zhu Wen knows very well in his heart that whether he can successfully get the key is the most important thing for Mr. Lu.
He is a world-renowned expert in mechanics, and is said to be a descendant of Lu Ban. There is no mechanism in the world that can hold him back.
Su Jintang understood that if he really made a move, no matter whether his side could win or not, he would definitely be greatly injured.
Of course, he didn't want to suffer this dumb loss.
He smiled and said, "Brother Zhu, don't worry. I take special care of your Zhu family, as long as you pay the money, I will let you go. ”
"That's pretty much it." Zhu Wen's tone softened a little. His men retreated behind him again.
"As for the others, it's hard to say." Su Jintang's gaze slid over the faces of the others.
What he wants to stop is, of course, those forces that pose a threat to him.
As for those stragglers, who wanted to go in and die, he didn't bother to stop them. As long as they pay enough money, they can come in and out as they please.
Su Jintang asked people to stay in front of the ancient well and said to Mr. Lu, "Mr. Lu, you can do it." ”
Lu Chengqi nodded, took out a Luban ruler from his backpack, measured it from the chain first, and then walked all the way to the outside of the gazebo.
No one knows what he's doing. Lu Chengqi's expression had always been very serious, and he stopped nearly a hundred meters away from the pavilion.
He looked up at the sun's position and took a few steps to the side. Only then did he say to Su Jintang, "Mr. Su, pull the chain to my position." ”
Hearing his words, Su Jintang ordered two of his subordinates to hold the chains and walk towards the place where Lu Chengqi was.
The chains were very long, and at first, the two of them could barely pull them. But as the distance increased, the two of them could no longer pull such a long chain.
It took a dozen men to pull the chains out of the well.
The part of the chain soaked under water was covered with rust.
I was also secretly surprised that the chain had been pulled out nearly a hundred meters long. I really don't know where the other end of the chain leads. After entering the water for a while, just follow the chain and continue to reach your destination.
At this moment, a rumbling sound of water came from the well.
At the same time, the well seemed to be boiling, and water was coming up from the bottom of the well.
As the chains were pulled out, someone looked into the well, only to see that no one had fallen into it again.
I also wondered what it was that caused them to hallucinate and jump into the well.
Seeing that the water level in the well was rising, the other end of the chain was just pulled to Mr. Lu's feet when the water surface was at the same level as the well's mouth.
This Mr. Lu's calculation was really accurate, although the well water was about to overflow, but not a drop of water came out.
Mr. Lu asked the chains to be fastened.
He said to the group, "There is a time limit for the agency, and you only have half a day. At five o'clock in the evening, the mechanism will automatically shut down, and those who are still in it will never think about coming up again! ”
