Chapter 33: The Well (1)
Lin Chen went down the well, the well was indeed very deep, and it took a long time to reach the bottom.
The feet are very soft, like stepping on cotton, I was about to shine a flashlight, my feet suddenly sank, Lin Chen hurriedly grabbed the rope with his hands, and his body continued to fall down, Lin Chen's hands inadvertently climbed a small stone protruding from the well wall, kicked a few times, and finally kicked the well wall with his feet, and poked his butt on the other side of the well wall.
The flashlight fell out of his mouth.
"Ahh
There was a scream from the bottom of the well.
"Is it Ye Jiangchuan?" Lin Chen said loudly.
"It's me! Something hit me, it hurt me! ”
"It's a flashlight!"
"Oh! I said, why is it so heavy! This thing is falling on my foot, it hurts me to death, my foot was just injured, and it was hit by your flashlight, and this foot seems to be unwanted! ”
The people below kept inhaling the cold air while talking, and it seemed that this time it was really smashed!
Lin Chen propped up the wall of the well and said to the below: "Hey, can you still move your feet?" I'm so sorry! Just now, I thought I had stepped on the bottom, but I didn't expect my body to fall suddenly, I was also nervous, I didn't pay attention, and the flashlight slipped from my mouth! If you can't go, let's get out of the well, and I'll take you to the hospital to take a picture! ”
"Forget it! All right! I just tried it and my toes still move normally, so I should be fine! It just hurts, it's numb and it hurts! When you get out of the well, you should be fine after a good rest for two days! My flashlight just broke, and yours is just in the right place! ”
"Huh? Your flashlight is broken! Can you turn on that flashlight of mine and see if it still comes on? ”
Lin Chen was a little uneasy, when he was in a hurry to go down the well, he actually forgot to turn on the flashlight. If his flashlight is broken, he won't be able to do anything in this dark well! That's a big problem!
A beam of light hit and shook Lin Chen.
"The flashlight isn't broken! Your flashlight is quite sturdy, and it hasn't broken when it fell from such a high place! ”
The voice from below was full of joy.
"Thank goodness! It's good that it's not bad! This flashlight is imported, the battery should also be imported, I bought it in a sports equipment store, if it wasn't for the store's strong recommendation, I guess I wouldn't have bought it! Ordinary flashlights are very cheap, but this one is more than ten times more expensive! The store said that it is specialized in wild tourism and exploration! Now it seems that this thing is still worth it! The quality is really excellent! ”
"Well, that's good! Hey, I forgot to ask, who are you? ”
"My name is Lin Chen! It's a friend of the fat Jin Shiyou, I just called you for a long time, and you didn't agree, don't worry! Just come down and see how you're doing! ”
"Oh, Lin Chen, I know! Listen to fat people often talk about you! I've heard of it for a long time! Newly moved in, huh! My name is Ye Jiangchuan, the leaf of the leaf, the river of the river, the river! Except for the foot injury, everything else is fine! If you can't pedal, you can't make energy! ”
"You wait, don't move, I'll go down now!"
Lin Chen said, tightened the rope around his waist again, and along the wall of the well, after a while, he slipped out to the bottom of the well.
The bottom of the well is not big, just enough for two people.
Ye Jiangchuan wiped the dirt on the flashlight with his sleeve and handed it to Lin Chen.
The light of the flashlight illuminated the bottom of the well, and as far as the eye could see, there were small broken stones, glass bottles, plastic jars, and so on. The mud at the bottom of the well has long since dried up, and nothing else!
Lin Chen followed Ye Jiangchuan's example, sat down cross-legged, took out a box of cigarettes from his coat pocket, and handed one to Ye Jiangchuan.
"Let's have one, refresh yourself, accumulate some physical strength, and we'll climb up in a while!" Lin Chen said.
Ye Jiangchuan waved his hand, and when Lin Chen saw that he didn't want it, he was bored with smoking alone, so he simply put away the cigarette.
"I'm worrying about how I'm going to climb up in a moment!"
Ye Jiangchuan frowned, moved the shoe he took off to the side, making more space for Lin Chen, took off his socks again, and gently massaged his injured foot.
"If I had known, I would have brought you some safflower oil! But don't worry, I'll carry you! By the way, we just called you, didn't you hear? ”
"Nope!"
"It's strange that you didn't hear our loud voice!"
"No! All I heard was the sound of tinkling water coming from somewhere! ”
"Is there one?"
Lin Chen's eyes suddenly sharpened, and he listened to the wall of the well for a while, and in an instant, the turmoil under his eyes calmed down and became calm.
"I haven't heard anything! Don't worry! Let's rest a little longer and go out! ”
Lin Chen said, his gaze resting on Ye Jiangchuan's feet. Ye Jiangchuan's foot was obviously swollen with a big bag, swollen and red, and it seemed that the injury was not light.
"Are you also here to find gold? Fooled for it! Ye Jiangchuan said.
"Hehe, curious! Promise the fat man, I will definitely do it! ”
"Hmmm! Like you, I'm here to be curious! I also know that rumors are not a musical thing! You see, I was right! Where, as they say, what gold, what a woman's face! And what black hair! Where! Isn't this just a normal well! What's here? Nothing! If others knew that I had broken my foot because I went down the well, they would definitely laugh at me! Saying I'm stealing chickens doesn't make rice! ”
"No, it won't! Don't think about it! Oh, how do you feel now? ”
"After rubbing it for a long time, it's still like that! Anyway, it hurts so much that I can't afford it! ”
"It seems that you, like me, have to come down and find out for yourself, just to satisfy your curiosity! People say curiosity kills cats! ”
Lin Chen said as he gently touched Ye Jiangchuan's bad foot with his hand.
Ye Jiangchuan gasped and exclaimed, "Ouch! It hurts! Brother, can you tap it? ”
"I'm just going to see how badly it hurts, don't be afraid! It seems that I can only carry you out! ”
"No, can a rope carry the weight of two people?"
"My rope should be good, sturdy, and it's also imported! I bought it with a flashlight! ”
"Forget it, I'll try it myself, don't find the gold, the rope will break again! Such a deep well is not a joke! In case we both fall to our deaths, it's not worth it! ”
"Hmmm! Do you want me to help you up? ”
"I should do it myself!"
Lin Chen shouted at the top with a loud voice, "Fatty! Fatso! Help pull the rope down! ”
But there was no response.
"Forget it, stop shouting, I shouted, they can't hear it! You shouted outside, and I didn't hear it! It seems that this well is really strange, and it is actually soundproofed! ”
Ye Jiangchuan put on his socks and said helplessly.
"What sound?"
Lin Chen suddenly quieted down, and the two of them were almost at the same moment, and their ears caught the sound of "cooing" water.
"Not good! Why is it so cool under my ass! ”
When he said this, Ye Jiangchuan was touching his ass with his hand with an embarrassed expression.
"Are you in a hurry and peeing your pants? Haha, and pee your pants! Hahaha... Ouch! Oh no, what's wrong under my ass, cool! ”
Lin Chen touched the ground under his body, his smile disappeared in an instant, and his heart sank.
"It's groundwater!"
"It's groundwater seeping up, what should I do?" Ye Jiangchuan's voice sounded a little flustered.
"Don't be afraid! Just because you can't hear the shouting doesn't mean the phone can't get through! ”
Lin Chen took out his mobile phone, turned on the screen, and there was a signal, and soon, the mobile phone was connected.
"Fatty, quick, there's water seeping down there, as soon as I shake the rope, you pull it up! The action is fast! ”
"God, I finally heard your voice, it scared us to death, and I was worried that something would happen to you! See Ye Jiangchuan? ”
"He was injured, he said he could climb himself, you help him, I, you don't have to worry about it first!"
Lin Chen tightened the rope for Ye Jiangchuan and checked his injured foot again, but fortunately, he only broke his foot, and it was not a big problem.
The water seeped really fast, and after a while, there was already a thin layer of water at the bottom of the well, and despite being careful, the butt still stuck to the water, which made Ye Jiangchuan, who was squatting on the ground, stand up all of a sudden.
At the moment when he got up, Lin Chen found that something seemed to flash under Ye Jiangchuan's buttocks, he reached out and picked it up and saw that it was a small bronze mirror with a wooden handle, with words on it, which Lin Chen couldn't understand.
"Your mirror?"
Ye Jiangchuan re-fastened the rope on his waist and was about to climb up, when he glanced back and said, "What broken mirror?" Not mine! ”
Soon, the water was ankle-free, cold and bitterly cold.
"How? Can you climb it on your own? ”
With Lin Chen's words, Ye Jiangchuan looked up, it seemed to be sealed by something, black and rumbling, and he couldn't see the sky.
"Huh! Odd! You can see the stars up there! ”
Listening to Ye Jiangchuan's words, Lin Chen sent the flashlight upward, and what made him feel his hair stand on end was that at some point, it turned black, and a black thing blocked the position where he stayed when he came down just now.
At this time, Lin Chen and Ye Jiangchuan could both feel the water seeping upwards a little more.
"Something up there seems to be blocking our way!" Lin Chen said.
"See! I'll poke it open! If you can't get on, you have to get on, and if you don't leave, this water really comes up, we both have to be drowned, and it's important to escape! ”
As he spoke, Ye Jiangchuan tightened the rope and began to climb up, Lin Chen supported his ass with his arm and pushed it upwards hard.
"Do you walk on your feet? Can you eat hard? ”
"Okay! After massaging for a long time, it still has some effect! Hurry up too! ”
Lin Chen looked down and saw that countless small water bubbles were emerging from the bottom of the well, and the water was gurgling upward.
It seemed that he couldn't wait any longer, so he fixed the rope around his waist, put the flashlight in his mouth, and kicked the wall of the well with his feet, and began to climb up like a nimble monkey.
After climbing for a while, Ye Jiangchuan above stopped, and Lin Chen could conclude from his writhing body that he must have encountered that obstacle and tried to break through it.
"What's wrong? Can't get by? Lin Chen asked.
"I have that thing on my head, and I can't go up!"
"Huh? What the hell is that? ”
"It's like a ball of cotton plugged! Black cotton! ”
"Does cotton come in black?"
"I don't know what it is, it shouldn't be cotton! It seems to be black hair! A big clump of dense hair! I can't pick it up after a long time! ”
