The parts of the wheels scattered next to the well were rotten, the wood was rotten, and the iron ropes were rusty beyond recognition. It can be seen that these things existed a long time ago, and they were not left behind by Lu Fangding's team.

In the eyes of today's people, these pulley combinations are not particularly complicated, but they are just simple mechanical groups with half human power, however, in ancient times, such pulley combinations were designed and manufactured by people with advanced minds. The only function of the pulley combination is to allow the thick iron cable to be lifted vertically in the well.

In other words, this strange well has always had people or objects passing up and down in the past.

The black and swarthy wellhead could not be seen at a glance, and the iron cable that hung into the well was very heavy, and it could not be twisted without a wheel. I found that the iron cable was tripped by a steel drill, and if you hold on to the iron cable, you can go down to the bottom of the well and climb up from the bottom of the well.

I don't know what this well was for, but I know for sure that the purpose of this well was not to draw water.

After observing the well for a long time, everything was calm as usual. Xiao Mao took the flashlight and shone it into the wellhead, and I also leaned over to look at it.

As soon as you get close to the well, you can smell a very strange smell. The smell was very smelly, mixed with other smells, and these messy smells mixed together, strongly irritating the nasal passages, but for a while I couldn't tell what it was.

If there is no light, the mouth of the well will feel black, as if it is very deep, but when the light really shines down, I see that the depth of the well is about 10 meters, and it is not really bottomless.

The strange smell made me feel very uncomfortable, so I took out two masks, soaked them with water, and gave one to Xiaomao. After putting on the mask, it was better.

Many situations are already obvious facts, three and a half years ago, the three people in Lu Fangding's team must have found this well, maybe they even went down to the well. All the changes may have happened in this well. If we are to find out the truth, we have to get into it.

Looking at the well, I felt my legs cramping. In fact, when the brick tells about the things that happened back then, there is no particularly scary plot, however, those things always bring me a very thick shadow, and I feel inexplicably panicked. Standing by the well, I could hear my heart pounding.

"I'll go down and have a look." Xiao Mao knocked on the iron cable hanging into the well with a crowbar, the iron cable was rusty, and when he touched it, the iron slag on it fell down, but the iron cable was very thick, and the rust all over could also increase the friction.

"No, it's too dangerous to go down alone." I shook my head, Xiao Mao must be afraid that if there is danger in the well, the two of them will be served in one pot, but now it is just the two of us, if Xiao Mao goes down alone, once there is an accident, there will be no one to help.

The two of us argued for a while, and finally each gave way, and the two of us went down together, Xiao Mao explored the way in front, and if there was no danger, I would follow.

Xiao Mao grabbed the iron rope and slowly slid down, he not only had to see if there was any danger, but also always pay attention to the air quality, such a deep well, if the space is closed and narrow, people may be stuffed inside. Tried all the way, slipped all the way, and finally fell steadily to the bottom of the well.

"How's it going to be?"

"It's okay, but the taste is a little big."

After getting the safety signal, I climbed to the bottom of the well along the cable. The diameter of the well is more than two meters, but the space under the well is very large, and when I went down to the bottom, I saw a sloping step on the right side.

The steps are all made of large stones, one section at a time, extending downward. The steps are very wide, and you don't have to think about it to know that this should be left by the ancient elephant male from a long time ago.

What can a step do? It's nothing more than making it easier for people to pass. In this way, when the ancient Xiangxiong people ran this place, people often came and went here.

Although we were all still wearing masks, after going down to the bottom of the well, the pungent smell seemed to be much stronger, and we kept drilling through the masks into our noses. After staying here for a while, Xiao Mao slowly walked down the steps, walked out for a while, and after making sure that he was safe, he turned back and beckoned me to follow. The two of us walked cautiously like this, and it took more than ten minutes to walk ten meters away.

The light of the flashlight does not reach the end of the steps, and I don't know how deep it is. At this time, Xiao Mao suddenly raised his hand.

At the edge of the stairs in front of us, there was something black, but experienced people could tell that it was a dried bloodstain.

Immediately afterward, a shadow was seen on the steps below, next to the bloodstain that had completely dried up. When the light shines, the first thing you see is a corner of clothes.

That must be a person.

We observed for a while before we got closer, and the visual blind spots formed by the steps were gone, and the shadow clearly appeared in our sight.

At this moment, I felt a strong physical damage to my eyes, and this sensation hit my brain directly, causing goosebumps to appear all over my body.

The man had long since died, the temperature here was very low, the air was damp and not circulating, the body had rotted, but it was not finished, and there was a dark black mass attached to the bones and clothes, and it was shocking to look at.

The corpse was no longer recognizable, but the only thing that could be identified was the clothes. Xiao Mao looked at it for a while, frowning slightly, not knowing what he was thinking.

"What's wrong?"

"I'm thinking about a problem." Xiao Mao rummaged through the messy clothes with a crowbar and said, "If the brick didn't lie, then the situation we encountered would be difficult to explain." ”

The clothes worn by the corpse are waterproof jackets, if Xiao Mao is not mistaken, the team of Lu Fangding's organization five years ago was issued with such jackets. The quality of this garment is very good, strong and durable, and it is waterproof.

Lu Fangding is a person who pays more attention to experience, and this kind of jacket has been well received by team members, so if it is used in the future, when the waterproof jacket is used, Lu Fangding will definitely continue to use this brand of jacket, and it is absolutely impossible for him to waste time picking between several brands.

From this, it can be concluded that during the second Ta'er Lake operation, the team members were also issued with this kind of jacket.

When Xiao Mao said this, I was really impressed. After we rescued the bricks, the bricks put on their own clothes and stayed in this humid place for more than three years, and their clothes were torn. At the time, I didn't pay much attention to what kind of clothes Brick was wearing, but now that I think about it, Brick was wearing a jacket like this.

If I think about it this way, I immediately understand what Xiao Mao means. This corpse is the same as the clothes worn by the bricks, and it can't have been dead for a long time, it should be a member of the team.

The problem arises, the bricks and we said clearly, Lu Fangding sent a total of three people in, and after getting no response, Lu Fangding asked the bricks to come over to check the situation. Then, the man named Lao Hei appeared, rushed out of the small hole, and later, the sword and the big head also appeared, and were killed by the bricks.

This proves that the three people sent out by Lu Fangding, whether they are dead or alive, at least their whereabouts are clear. However, the whereabouts of those three people are clear, who will the corpses in front of them be?

In such a situation, we will definitely think. But it cannot be ruled out whether the bricks are lying, and if they draw arbitrary conclusions, they will only mislead themselves. The premise of speculation is to determine whether the bricks are telling the truth or not.

The corpse has rotted like this, and there is no value for research. We stood up and walked down the stairs for another dozen meters. There are still a long number of steps, not to mention in the past, and even now, it is not easy to build a stone staircase of this kind in this environment.

The fact that the ancient elephant men had put so much effort into building steps here only shows that this place is very important, or even sacred.

Thinking of the sacrificial place we encountered earlier, I probably have a judgment in my heart. At that time, when I first discovered the sacrificial ground, I still wondered why the Zhangxiong people built the sacrificial place in this place. Now it seems that there is a result. Before entering this deep well, the Zhangxiong people may have to perform a solemn sacrifice. Sacrifice was a very important thing in ancient times, especially for a powerful tribe or nation, and solemn sacrifices were only carried out before important events occurred.

I thought as I followed Xiao Mao and walked down twelve or thirteen meters. At this time, Xiao Mao saw a shadow curled up in the corner of the steps again. The light of the flashlight shone through, and it was immediately distinguishable that it was also a corpse that had died here.

The state of this corpse, similar to the previous corpse, has already begun to decompose, but it is not completely rotten, and the corpse exudes that strange stench, which cannot be blocked by wearing a mask, as long as you breathe, you can smell this smell.

On the corpse, they were also wearing that kind of waterproof jacket, and the two corpses had the same identity from a certain point of view, they were both people from Lu Fangding's team three and a half years ago.
