Wang Haitang shook his head vigorously, "No, cousin, I dreamed again last night." ”

Looking at her frightened appearance, my heart suddenly lifted, "What are you dreaming about again?" Something about them? ”

Wang Haitang covered her face with her hands and sobbed in a low voice, her shoulders rising and falling violently.

I reached out and patted her on the back and comforted her softly, "Don't get excited, no matter what you dream, it's always a dream, and we can all find a way to crack it." ”

It took a while for Wang Haitang to calm down, she raised her head to look at me, her face full of tears looked very pitiful and helpless.

"I dreamed of my mom and dad again, and they said that if I couldn't find them again, they would die, they would die, cousin, if you went to that place and still couldn't find a clue, they might really be dead."

"Don't think like that, I've already told you before, your mom and dad are very likely to be controlled by demons now, so everything they convey to you through their dreams may be a trap, we must stabilize ourselves now, if we think crankily based on what they say, it will only be led by their noses."

"I'm sorry cousin, Sister Xue's psychological counseling for me these days has been in vain, as long as I dream of them, I will be very confused."

I smiled and shook my head, "Don't think like this, it is impossible to completely dispel the shadow in your heart from the beginning, not to mention that they have been under the control of demons and continue to convey certain meanings to you, you must be calm, don't believe what they say, this time we went to Huangqian County whether there are clues or not, it is very useful to us." ”

I comforted Wang Haitang a few words, and her emotions gradually calmed down.

I'm going to go over with Xue Xiaxia tomorrow, so I can only send a WeChat message to Zhao Heizi and ask him to pay close attention to Wang Haitang's situation tomorrow, maybe the demon will come up with a plan to divert the tiger from the mountain, and take advantage of our absence to attack her.

The next morning, a few minutes after 8 o'clock, Xue Xiaxia drove over.

I hurriedly ran down with my backpack on my back, "Lawyer Xue, good morning." ”

Xue Xiaxia smiled at me, she was wearing a lilac windbreaker with a ponytail, and the whole person looked very temperamental.

"Get in the car, we'll go now."

"You should go for a breakfast or something, otherwise you don't know when you will meet the restaurant along the way."

I said, regardless of whether the other party agreed or not, I sat directly in the passenger seat and began to recommend a breakfast shop that I frequented to her.

Xue Xiaxia didn't refuse, and drove to the breakfast shop I said.

I sniffed greedily, I really wanted to be peaceful forever, and I could go to the breakfast store with my loved ones in the morning to eat breakfast and enjoy the real family fun.

It was at this time, for a few seconds of trance, I actually felt that Xue Xiaxia was my lover, fortunately, I reminded myself in time not to think cranky, and when I was found by her in a daze, I guess I would think I was a pervert again.

After eating breakfast, we officially hit the road.

Xue Xiaxia was driving all the way, and I persuaded me a few times to change her to drive on the way, she smiled and said that it was okay, she often drove alone for several hours to go to other places to run errands, and more than two hours were very simple for her.

It was already more than eleven o'clock when I arrived in Huangqian County, the weather was good, this small county looked vibrant, and it was indeed much more prosperous than Wang Haitang's hometown.

We got out of the car and walked around the streets for a while, feeling the customs and customs here.

As Wang Haitang described before, this is a very peaceful small county, at least I didn't feel the arrogance of the market from the surrounding crowd.

I discussed with Xue Xiaxia to find a family hotel to stay in first, so that I could get some information about Shenjing and Huangqian County from the boss.

Xue Xiaxia also readily agreed, and when she got in the car, I teased her that a barrister would go with me to live in a family hotel for dozens of yuan, would I feel too aggrieved.

Xue Xiaxia smiled, looked straight ahead and said, "You really underestimate me, I have been a lawyer for 5 years, I have been to many places in the past 5 years, I have met countless people, I have lived in any kind of place, I am really not the kind of girl who is greedy for enjoyment, otherwise I really can't be a lawyer." ”

Hearing her say this, my good impression of her has increased a lot, and I really don't like delicate and weak girls.

We drove around the county and soon found a fairly tidy guesthouse in an alley.

Because we don't bargain or pick a room, the boss had a good impression of us and greeted us warmly for breakfast with them.

I glanced at Xue Xiaxia, she instantly understood what I meant, nodded and said, "Okay boss, but we have to pay you for the meal, otherwise we will find another place to eat." ”

The boss grinned happily, "Whatever you are, everyone is a refreshing person, easy to say, easy to say." ”

The boss and the hostess, as well as a woman in her 40s hired by their family, are usually responsible for cleaning the room and cleaning the bedding.

After chatting for a while, I moved the conversation to the well.

When the boss heard this, he immediately frowned, "You two have also heard about the sacred well in our county, and it seems that the sacred well is really famous." ”

After the boss finished speaking, the proprietress and the cleaner were a little embarrassed, and you laughed.

The boss took a sip of wine and paused, "That sacred well really has a legend, but as for whether it is true or not, you have to judge for yourself, and I am only responsible for saying it." ”

"Of course, we are not people who tell the truth, since we have heard about this legend, we want to know about it." I smiled and said, this boss is quite cautious in his words, probably because he is afraid that one of us outsiders will talk nonsense after hearing the legend, and ruin the reputation of the small county town, or because of this incident, it will cause some unnecessary trouble, and cause trouble to the boss and his family.

The boss talked about the legend of the god well while drinking, and the boss's narration ability is still quite strong, so he thinks he is telling a story.

It is said that a loyal subordinate of the blue-faced beast Yang Zhi during the Three Kingdoms period fled here with his wife during a war, and they originally wanted to live and work here incognito, but they were discovered by an enemy informant.

The enemy arrived here and found them, and his wife, in order to cover him, fought the enemy alone, and was finally controlled by the enemy, who threatened to throw her into the well if she did not tell the whereabouts of her men and their entire army.

The wife of the subordinate refused to tell her husband's whereabouts anyway, so she was thrown into the well by the enemy.

Later, the subordinates and the army reunited, and after several encounters, they finally won the battle, and this subordinate named the well "Mother Well" in order to remember his wife.

Later, there was a saying among the people that a live suckling pig must be thrown into this mother well every year, otherwise the gods inside would be angry and the entire small county town would suffer a catastrophe.

The local people all believe in this legend, each village takes turns to throw a live suckling pig into this well every year, and it has continued until about ten years ago, the residents of the county town said that it is now a modern society, there should be no more superstitious activities, not to mention that the sacred well has not changed for so many years, except for the depletion of the well water, it is impossible to really affect the people of the county, so this custom is completely broken.

I was slightly disappointed when I heard this, and my instinct told me that there were no useful clues from that well.

The proprietress opened her mouth, "There are a lot of folk legends like this, most of them are baseless superstitious legends, you just listen to them, you don't have to take them seriously." ”

I smiled and nodded, "It sounds like a touching story, but as for the well, I don't think it's really that magical." ”

"Yes, yes, I haven't thrown the suckling pig anymore for so many years, hasn't everyone been very peaceful? Although our small county town is a little smaller, it is rich in products and has good weather conditions. The cleaner held the bowl with a smile on his face.

I looked at the boss and asked again, "By the way, boss, may I ask about the renaming of Huangqian County to Yumen County, and why is this?" ”

The boss smiled, "You all know this, it seems that you did your homework before you came here." ”

Xue Xiaxia smiled faintly, "I can't talk about doing homework, we just heard some friends talk about it, and I happened to have a chance to have dinner with the boss's family today, so I asked casually." ”

"The name change was a long, long time ago, probably because the name 'Huangqian County' is similar to 'Huangquan County', it sounds more obscure, and the people want to have a good mouth, so they changed it, there is no other special reason."

"Thank you boss for sharing this with us." I picked up my wine glass and touched it with the boss, which was completely consistent with what Dong Liang told us before, and I was once again sure that this Huangqian County did not have the significance of in-depth investigation.

After eating, the boss said that he could take us to the place of the sacred well, I politely refused, saying that we would go to the county town to take a walk first, and ask passers-by to find the past, we still want to be familiar with the surrounding environment.

The boss listened to us and didn't give us any more advice.

When I got out of the hotel, I suddenly remembered a question, and immediately stood up and looked back at Xue Xiaxia.

This action startled her, "What's wrong?" ”

Looking at her nervous appearance, I couldn't help but smile, "No, I just suddenly want to ask you if you want to take a nap before you go over, walking is not as tiring as driving." ”

Xue Xiaxia's expression softened at this time, "It's okay, I'm not sleepy." ”
