Chapter One Hundred and Two: The Empty Well

Li Huaishan pressed his chest and panted hard, I could only remind him not to do this, like him with a large amount of ventilation, the surrounding stasis Qi field can easily rush into the chest and lungs.

To be honest, I don't know what happens when the stasis enters the lungs, but I at least know that once the balance of the body's qi field is broken, the mind will quickly collapse and fall into madness.

Li Huaishan seemed to have spent a lot of effort to calm his breathing, and then asked me, "You say, is that thing called Netherworld Tongbao really hidden here?" ”

I nodded: "Eight or nine is not far from ten." ”

Li Huaishan looked a little irritable: "Even if it is really hidden in this place, if you look around, it is dark, let's just wander around like this, it's not a way!" ”

I put my hand on his shoulder: "Don't be impatient, sink your heart, I know where the Netherworld treasure is." ”

Li Huaishan scratched his ears hard: "Where is it?" ”

"Shhhh

I made a silent gesture at him, and then I concentrated on carefully discerning where the sound of running water was coming from.

At this time, Li Huaishan moved the lantern and shot the light in front of the right, which happened to be the direction of the sound source.

It's just that the sound sounded very hollow, and at the same time unusually dull, as if it came from underground.

I asked Li Huaishan, "Did you hear that voice too?" ”

Li Huaishan glanced back at me: "What sound?" ”

I raised my chin at the lantern in his hand, "What are you shining?" ”

Li Huaishan pondered for a moment before speaking: "Just now, it seems that someone flashed through the shadow in front of the right, and I don't know if I was wrong. ”

Speaking of this, he held the lantern again, and quickly walked three or four steps to the right front, and in the edge area illuminated by the firelight, a boxy hole appeared, and Li Huaishan pointed to the entrance of the cave: "The figure seems to have appeared near here." ”

I leaned over and saw a stone staircase sloping down the opening, and the light of the fire swept over the staircase, faintly illuminating the large field of hay laid at the bottom of the staircase.

Li Huaishan gave me an inquiring look, I understood what he meant, and I didn't hesitate at the moment, and went directly into the square hole in the corner.

When Li Huaishan and I entered the second basement floor, the sound of the water hitting the iron plate became clearer, and on the ground illuminated by the firelight, there was a boxy hole, and there was a stone staircase that continued to slope downward.

I can confirm that the crashing sound came from a deeper place underground, and I beckoned to Li Huaishan at the moment, and quickly walked towards the third underground floor.

At first, I thought that there might be many layers in the village, and as long as you keep climbing down the stone steps, you will eventually find the location of the sound source.

But I was wrong, when we came to the third basement floor, there was no hole as far as the eye could see, except for a large field of hay and the occasional visible stone pillar, all that was left was a stone well with a diameter of more than two meters, and the water in it was so full that it almost overflowed.

Three floors into the ground, the sound source is still very deep under our feet.

Si Si Sha Sha ......

In the shadows behind the stone steps, there was a sudden sound of light footsteps.

Li Huaishan immediately raised the lantern and shone it in that direction.

The spread of the firelight was wide, but its penetration was relatively poor, and it could not tear through the thick black shadow cast behind the stone steps.

I waved my hand at Li Huaishan, signaling him not to move, and at the same time put my hand in my pocket and sneaked into the flashlight.

The person hiding in this basement was already alert, and I couldn't know his location until he made a sound, so I went to the mouth of the well and asked Li Huaishan to hold up the lantern to illuminate the well water.

Originally, it was just an unintentional move, but I didn't expect the firelight to be reflected in the water, and there were two overlapping reflections.

How so?

I was puzzled in my heart, and Li Huaishan was also puzzled.

Si Si Sha Sha ......

At that moment, the footsteps appeared again, and I immediately took out my flashlight, turned and shone in the direction from which the footsteps came, and saw a black shadow flash rapidly from the beam.

It's so fast that it's impossible to tell what it is, but one thing is for sure – humans don't have that speed.

And when I turned the flashlight and lit it around, it disappeared as if out of thin air, and never reappeared.

The beam of light shining from the flashlight soon became extremely dim, and Li Huaishan handed me his flashlight: "What is that?" ”

I shook my head, indicating that I couldn't tell.

Taking the flashlight from him, I pulled out an empty bag from my pocket that I had used to hold beef jerky and put the flashlight inside.

Li Huaishan was puzzled: "What are you doing?" ”

I didn't speak, pointed to the lantern in his hand, and then pointed to the wellhead, Li Huaishan reacted for a long time before he understood what I meant, and raised the lantern directly above the wellhead again.

I crouched down and looked closely at the water in the well, and I saw that a large number of broken bubbles were slowly rising in the water, but all the bubbles disappeared before they could touch the surface of the water.

Unsurprisingly, there was indeed a problem with the water in the well.

To make sure that the well water was not corrosive, I first submerged half of the cuff into the water, and a small water stain immediately leaked from the edge of the silk cuff, but there was no sign of corrosion.

Li Huaishan on the side frowned and said, "Such a big smell of oil." ”

I quickly waved at him and motioned for him not to talk more.

I have to say that Li Huaishan's sense of smell is still relatively sensitive, and the water stains stuck to my cuffs do exude a smell of kerosene, but standing on the edge of the wellhead, I can't smell any peculiar smell.

After that, I stuck out my tongue again and dipped it twice in the well water, and the taste was normal and non-toxic.

The closer I looked at the well, the more I felt that the reflection of the firelight was ethereal, but when I looked at it from a distance, they seemed very real.

Li Huaishan: "What are you doing?" ”

I gave him a glaring look: "Don't speak, keep an eye on your back!" ”

Li Huaishan shut up at this time.

To be honest, I am also blessed, why are people who have a good relationship with me such chattering urine, Boss Lu is like this, and Li Huaishan is also like this.

Am I destined to be haunted by chatter for the rest of my life? But looking back, Li Huaishan doesn't usually seem to be like this.

Forget it, at this juncture, it is a complete waste of time to pull these things, I shook my head, and forcefully put Li Huaishan's verbosity behind, and then rolled up my sleeves and plunged my arms into the water.

I remember that the old family classics said that there is a thing called Tianshui in this world, which looks very similar to ordinary water, but in fact it is a highly integrated yin and yang Daqi, which not only conjures into a specific form, which can affect the light in reality, but also when touched with your hands, the touch is very close to the thin oil.

As long as it is fixed in one place, it will never sink.

Sure enough, it's Tianshui! When my fingers touched the layer of water, I immediately felt a hint of oily smoothness.

I straightened up slightly, straightened my arms, and slowly leaned under the heavenly water, and in about a few seconds, my palm penetrated the water layer and felt the warm and humid air.

The well was only capped with heavenly water, and the bottom was empty.

I pulled Li Huaishan's trouser legs, Li Huaishan had been staring at the stone steps, and I pulled it twice before he turned his head to look at me.

I pointed to the heavenly water in the well and made a mouth shape to him: keep up.

Li Huaishan frowned: "Huh? ”

This idiot!

I didn't bother to talk nonsense with him, so I directly felt out my teeth and plunged into the heavenly water.

The water is like oil, but in any case, its essence is a mass of transformed Qi field, without density, after I entered the well, I did not feel any resistance, only a blink of an eye through the water layer, into the empty well pipe.

The outside of the well was unusually dry, but the air in the well was very humid, and the wall of the well was also very slippery, so I fell three or four meters away, so I shook my arm and pierced the teeth into the wall of the well, and then grabbed the teeth with one hand to stop the falling momentum.

Although Li Huaishan's reaction was a little slow, he was not stupid, he still jumped off.

As soon as I stabilized my body, he fell from above, I saw the opportunity, and at the moment when he brushed in front of me, I reached out and grabbed his hand, Li Huaishan's body staggered in mid-air, and then came into close contact with the damp well wall.

Boom!

His chest slammed against the wall of the well, and I felt pain just listening to it.

Li Huaishan gasped several times before he recovered, and then asked me: "What's the matter, why is there no ......water in the well?"

"Shut your mouth!" I squinted at him and let out a vicious shout.

Li Huaishan rolled his eyes very unhappily and did not speak again.

I let him go and let him hold my legs, then I looked up and stared at the top of the well.

The thing that followed us, maybe it will follow.

But after waiting for a long time, there was no movement at the wellhead, and then I remembered that Li Huaishan was still holding a lantern in his hand, and the firelight was shining outside.

What a miscalculation!

Thinking of this, I came back to my senses and stretched out my hand towards Li Huaishan.

Li Huaishan looked at me, not understanding what I meant at all.

"Alas! Lantern! I could only shout at him.

He looked at the lantern in his hand, then at me, and hesitated for a long time before handing it to me.

I bit the lamp branch with my teeth, grasped the tooth firmly with one hand, and clenched my fist with the other, using the technique of destroying the bone, and punched the wall of the well.

The ancient well has been in disrepair for many years, and the wall of the well is relatively fragile.

The bone-destroying hand does not hurt the epidermis but only the inside, even if the inside of the well wall is broken, the outer layer is still intact.

I regained my strength and slammed my fist directly on the wall of the well, and a thin layer of stone shell was pierced, and it fell together with the inner layer of gravel and soil.

Li Huaishan's reaction was also fast, and as soon as he saw something falling above his head, he quickly closed his eyes and lowered his head.

The hole in the wall of the well was more than half a foot deep, just enough to fit the lantern in.

After fixing the lantern, I pulled out my teeth and fell down the well.

Every three or four meters, I would insert my teeth into the wall of the well and slowly fall.

Who knows how deep this well is, if it is more than 100 meters deep and falls directly, Li Huaishan and I will not be able to bear it even if we have the steel and iron bones like the second master.
