Chapter 257: The Ancient Well in the Backyard

"Xiao Ai, that old woman has gone to the ancient well in the backyard to look for you, you have to be careful, this old couple may want to kill you." I reminded!

But I didn't expect Xiao Ai to disagree, just smiled bitterly and said. "I already knew that sooner or later they would attack me, because I knew too many of their secrets."

"Aren't you afraid?" I was amazed at the calmness of the girl.

The girl smiled wryly again. "I used to be scared, very, very scared, but it turned out that fear is useless, rather than this, it is better to accept calmly, I am an abandoned baby, my life was saved by them, they want my life now, although it is good to take it, I have had enough days like this."

I could hear a deep pessimism in her voice.

The girl seemed to have put life and death out of the equation, or that death was nothing to her, and she even calmly looked forward to this moment.

I don't just feel a little sad for this girl, because the old couple raised her, so she is willing to become the old couple's tool, and even willing to be taken by them?

"That old woman has already gone looking for you, but you are in the dark room now, if she can't find you later, I guess you will have to suffer again, so ......"

Before I could finish my sentence, Xiao Ai interrupted me. "She's going down the stairs to your room now, and wants to eavesdrop, what the hell are you doing in the room? It would take a while for the old lady to come down from the third floor, then go back to this room and follow another secret door to the ancient well in the backyard. ”

As soon as Xiao Ai said this, I understood, I thought that the old lady had gone to the ancient well in the backyard along the stairs of the secret passage, but I didn't expect that she just went upstairs to eavesdrop on our conversation, and now there is only Wang Shen alone in the 324 room, if the old lady goes, she will definitely find that the wooden plank under the bed has been pried open by us, and this secret passage has been discovered by us.

The situation is very bad.

I hurriedly took out my mobile phone and sent a text message to Wang Shen.

"The old lady has already gone upstairs along the secret passage, be careful."

After the text message was sent, I didn't feel much lighter, I don't know if it's too late? If I could have time, Wang Shen would have seen my text message, and he would definitely plug the pried floor back and move the bed back again, so that the old lady would not find out that we already knew about the secret passage, but if it was too late......

In other words, it's nothing for the old lady to find out that the secret passage is known, mainly because I'm afraid that she will attack Wang Shen.

Wang Shen is very arrogant, and he has no skills, he is definitely not the opponent of the old lady, the old lady is very insidious.

My heart jumped wildly, and I hesitated to get out of this door and go up the stairs of the secret passageway.

Xiao Ai saw my concern, she said. "I know what you're worried about, the old lady has gone upstairs now, and she will definitely find that the secret passage has been known to you, and now your friend is the only one in the room, and you are worried that the old lady will attack your friend, aren't you?"

As soon as she said this, I was even more worried, and I opened the secret door to go out, but Xiao Ai stopped me. "Don't be impulsive, don't worry, the old lady won't do anything to your friend, at least not now."

"Why?" I said!

"Because you and your friends are still very useful to them, this old couple has done a lot of evil for many years, just to find a pure essence, there have been a lot of male guests in this hotel, although they have been sucked in essence, but the essence of those male guests is very ordinary, now you and your friend's essence is different from other people's, and it is very useful to the old lady, so even if she finds something, she will not attack you for a while."

I said. "Why did this old couple instruct you to suck the man's essence? For the sake of their sons? Isn't their son dead? The old lady herself said that her son had fallen into the water and drowned. ”

Xiao Ai's face became serious, and it took a while before she said to herself. "Their son is dead, but death is the end for others, but it is the beginning for their son, the beginning of a new life for their son, and the beginning of the evil done by this old couple."

"What do you mean?"

"Don't ask......" Xiao Ai's words had just said this, and suddenly we heard footsteps again.

The sound of footsteps from top to bottom, from far and near, came down the stairs, and it was from the stairs that the old lady had returned.

Xiao Ai hurriedly glanced at me and said in a low voice. "The old lady has already been to your room, and now she is back, and when she comes back, she will go through another secret passage to find me in the ancient well in the backyard, and I must go back quickly."

After Xiao Ai finished speaking, she walked to the wall at the end of this dark room, she raised her hand and knocked on the wall three times, and then the wall slowly moved to the side like a curtain that had been opened!

This wall turned out to be a secret door, and when this secret door was opened, it led directly to the backyard of this hotel.

Xiao Ai was about to walk towards the backyard along the secret door, but I grabbed her arm and said. "What should I do if you're gone?"

But I immediately realized the embarrassment, and immediately let go of her arm, I am a big man, and now I should ask a girl for help, which is too unusual.

Xiao Ai didn't feel embarrassed, she said to me. "The old lady went to your room through the secret passage, and knew that your friend was the only one in the room, and you ran away through the secret passage, so she will definitely look for you, it is not safe here, why don't you go out of this secret door with me and hide in the backyard of this hotel first."

I also have this intention, since the old lady found that I was not in the room, she would definitely come down to look for me, so this place is not safe, so I will follow Xiao Ai to hide in the backyard, just I also want to see what kind of cat is hidden in the ancient well in the backyard?

In this way, I quickly followed Xiao Ai out of the secret door, and after getting out of the secret door, Xiao Ai knocked on the wall three times on the open wall, and then slowly closed it again, and it was impossible to see that it was a secret door from the outside.

Not only was I surprised, it seems that there are a lot of institutions in this hotel, can this old couple build such a secret door and dark room with the physical strength of this old couple?

Out of the secret door, I came to the backyard of the hotel.

Because the hotel is in the middle of nowhere, there are no buildings next to it, so the backyard of this hotel covers a large area.

Even the area of this backyard is larger than the area occupied by the entire hotel, but this backyard is relatively desolate and overgrown, and it seems that no one has taken care of it for a long time, or it is deliberately not taken care of!

The front and back of the hotel are really in stark contrast, the front of the hotel, the decoration is very decent, after all, it is the face of the hotel!

And the backyard of this hotel seems to have been abandoned for a long time, very desolate.

Xiao Ai took my hand and quickly moved through the weeds, she seemed to be familiar with this place, and her movements were as agile as a monkey.

"Gotta hurry, the old lady will be here soon." Xiao Ai said as she pulled me through the weeds.

Soon the two of us walked about a dozen meters towards the backyard and came to a large patch of weeds.

This weed is different from the others, because these weeds are very tall, more than one person tall, and one person standing in it cannot be seen from the outside.

"When we arrive, the ancient well is in this weed." Little Ai paused and let go of my hand.

Then she reached out and pushed away the weeds that were more than a man tall and got inside.

I didn't move, observing the weeds and looking around.

Xiao Ai had already gotten in, and seeing that I was standing there without moving, she turned around and said to me again. "What are you doing? Come here. ”

I nodded, followed her, and burrowed into the weed.

Xiao Ai used a quick movement to push away the weeds and open the way in front, and after walking about five or six meters, he walked to the middle of the weeds.

I was shocked to notice a well in the middle of the weeds.

"That's the well the old lady talking about?" I asked!

Xiao Ai nodded and said. "That's right, this is it, she'll find it soon, and I'll have to go down to this well at once."

"What about me?" I said!

Xiao Ai said. "There are weeds next to here, you can find a random place to hide, and you will come out after the old lady is gone, as for what to do after that, you can weigh it yourself, and I can only help you get here."

After Xiao Ai finished speaking, she walked to the well.

The mouth of the well is circular and the size of a washbasin, and it is also allowed for only one person to pass through.

However, the area under this well is estimated to be very large, otherwise, the old lady would not let Xiao Ai go down to this well.

Seeing that Xiao Ai was about to put his feet into the well, I hurriedly said. "Wait, I'll go down with you."

Because I really want to know what secrets are hidden in this well, I overheard the conversation between the old lady and the old man, saying that I asked Xiao Ai to go down to this well and give excessive yin qi to their son, so it can be judged that their son is in this well.

I've always wondered if the old couple's son is dead or alive, and everything the two of them do is for their son, what is their son like?

"No, you can't go down." Xiao Ai said decisively. "There's something very powerful down there, much more insidious than that old couple, and if you go down, it's a dead end."

When she said this, I was even more curious.

"What's the awesome thing? Is it the son of the old couple? I asked!

Xiao Ai didn't answer me, just warned me cautiously. "Listen to me, you first find a place to hide, and when the old lady leaves, you find an opportunity to find your friend, rescue your friend, and then leave this ghost place, never come again, as for this well, you must not go down, if you go down, you will die!"
