Despite all the doubts in my heart, it seems that the little girl in red did not seem to have the slightest malice towards me, but saved me when I was in danger.

However, since I was in a backward state when I fell down just now, I couldn't see whether the pair of small palm prints behind me were left by the little girl in red, so I wasn't too sure.

But no matter what, as long as the imp hiding around us has no malicious intent.

I'm afraid that there is an invisible and untouchable existence hidden around us, and that is hostile to us, and that is the real trouble.

Looking at the two small palm prints on the clothes, I didn't know how to explain it to Li Huiyan.

Now I say no, I don't say no, it's not either, it's a bit difficult to ride a tiger. If you say it, you are afraid that the two of them will be afraid if they know that there is an invisible little Lori in red around them, and if they don't say it, they are worried that the little girl in red will be unfavorable to them in case they are, and they will not have the heart to take precautions when the time comes.

Forget it, let's not talk about it for now. I shook my head secretly, and finally decided to keep these things to myself. Anyway, I can see the little girl in red, so it's a big deal to pay more attention to my surroundings.

Patting off the palm prints on my clothes, I put on my clothes and walked in the direction of the ancient well and the crystal coffin again.

Due to the accident just now, I walked extra cautiously this time, although the frozen ground was still slippery, but there was no danger, and there were no more accidents.

At this moment, Li Huiyan and I were already standing only one meter away from the ancient well.

It wasn't until now that I really got to see what this ancient well looked like.

The wellhead of the ancient well is surrounded by two layers of bluestone strips with a length of one meter five or six, and the total height is only about 40 centimeters, and the wellhead is built into a very regular hexagonal shape.

Perhaps because of the cold air around the wellhead, although thousands of years have passed, the wellhead of the ancient well has not grown a single moss.

There are also some exquisite carvings on these bluestone strips, but there is nothing special about them.

Suddenly, just as I was staring at the ancient well in front of me motionlessly, the two bronze chains that hung straight into the well instantly shook violently, as if something was pulling and struggling underneath.

At the same time, wisps of pale white cold air visible to the naked eye went all the way up the bronze chain, slowly passed into the crystal coffin, and then slowly emitted it.

The huge bronze chain at the mouth of the well has already been covered with a thick layer of ice crystals at this time, which looks crystal clear and beautiful, and at a glance it looks like it is made of crystal.

I was a little curious in my heart, and was about to reach out to touch the bronze chain, but Li Huiyan beside me saw this and quickly stopped me.

"Don't touch it." Li Huiyan shook her head with a serious expression and said.

"It shouldn't be a problem to just touch it, right?" I looked at her in bewilderment.

I figured out to myself that although the bronze chain looked cold, it would not be dangerous to touch it.

"Look over there." Li Huiyan shook her head and turned her gaze to the side of the cave.

I wondered, and I couldn't help but turn my head to look, and my eyes widened for a moment.

On our left, against the stone wall, rows of dead bodies dressed in costumes of various eras stood upright.

What is surprising is that each of these dead bodies is well preserved, not the slightest bit of decay, and even their facial expressions are lifelike, either frightened or angry, intact to preserve the last moment of their owner's appearance before death.

Especially the two dead bodies in the middle, with their mouths wide open and their eyes wide in horror, looked very terrifying.

Although they were still more than ten meters apart, I could still see at a glance that the corpses were different, their bodies were wrapped in a thin layer of ice crystals, as if they had been artificially frozen.

I roughly counted the number of corpses, no more, no less, exactly fourteen.

"You saved my life again." I shuddered and withdrew my arm, never daring to touch the seemingly harmless bronze chain in front of me.

Li Huiyan's meaning is already obvious, this crystal coffin and these two bronze chains will kill people if they touch it, I don't want to be like those people next to the stone wall who turn into straight and stiff popsicles at a glance.

Li Huiyan didn't speak, her eyes were motionless and she looked at the crystal coffin that was suspended in mid-air by bronze chains, and she looked a little excited.

I followed her gaze and saw that the crystal coffin hanging in the air was constantly bubbling outward, and from time to time it was swaying by the bronze chains that were inexplicably shaking in the well.

"I just heard you say what kind of hanging coffin this is, have you seen it before?" After a few glances at the crystal coffin, I finally couldn't hold back the curiosity in my heart and asked Li Huiyan.

"I've heard of it, but I haven't seen it." When Li Huiyan heard this, she immediately said.

"Can you tell me about it?" I said again.

"Actually, it's nothing, this hanging coffin is just a vicious method used by the ancients to deal with some enemies after their deaths." This time, Li Huiyan did not refuse, and began to talk to me about the hanging coffin.

"In ancient times, from the emperor and princes to the common people, after death, they all paid attention to entering the soil for peace. The ancients generally believed that only when a person enters the earth after death can the soul of a person smoothly reach the underworld and be reincarnated. ”

"I don't know when there was a vicious burial system specially designed to deal with the enemy, so that the dead could not be buried in peace, so as to achieve the purpose of allowing their souls to live forever in the yang world."

"As you can see, the most important feature of the hanging coffin is that the coffin containing the deceased is suspended in the air and will not be allowed to occupy the land for the rest of your life. However, I rarely hear that this kind of thing is really done, because it is too troublesome, and if you don't do it, you will lose your life. Therefore, even if an enemy dies in front of him, most of them are just throwing their bodies in the wilderness to vent their anger."

"There is no record in history of when the ancient evil art of hanging the yin coffin arose, and there is no record of it even in any ancient classics, and this ancient evil art suddenly appeared and disappeared in the long river of history, becoming an eternal mystery."

"So how do you know?" I thought for a moment and asked.

According to Li Huiyan, since there is no record of the hanging yin coffin in the classics of the past and present, how did she know these things? One can't help but feel a little curious.

"I can only say that it is providential, there is a Taoist in Maoshan who is an old friend of my grandfather and once saved my grandfather's life. Although my grandfather had an accident later, my parents would take me to visit him every year, and I heard him accidentally talk about the hanging coffin after he got drunk. ”

It seems that I had expected that I would ask this question, Li Huiyan said without thinking about it.

For some reason, I always felt that Li Huiyan had something in her words, but I didn't continue to ask anything.

"It turned out that it was just used to deal with the poisonous evil art of the dead, which made me worry for a long time." I turned my gaze to the crystal coffin and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

However, before I could completely relax my mood, I listened to Li Huiyan continue.

"Its practical hanging yin coffin is only one of the uses of making people unpeaceful after death, and it also has another use is to gather yin qi and raise ghosts."

As if in response to what Li Huiyan said, as soon as she finished speaking, she saw the two bronze chains hanging down into the ancient well shaking violently again, much more violently than the first time.

And, at the same time as the bronze chain shook violently, a sharp and piercing sound came out of the ancient well, which shook people's eardrums painfully.

Hearing this sudden sound, Li Huiyan and I were so frightened that we took a few steps back at the same time, and my eyes stayed on the ancient well and didn't dare to move half a minute.

After a few moments, the shaking of the bronze chains subsided, and silence returned to the cave, as if what we had just seen had never happened, but was just an illusion.

When everything had completely calmed down, I took two steps forward with some surprise.

This is the second time that the bronze chain has produced such a strange sound, which makes people have to be afraid.

What's in the ancient well? My gaze turned to the crystal coffin hanging above the ancient well.

Although the crystal coffin was full of cold air, and countless white mist came out of it, which made me a little unreal, I could still see at a glance that the crystal coffin was empty, and there was no corpse at all.

I can't help but be a little strange, Li Huiyan said before that the hanging yin coffin is used to gather yin qi to raise powerful ghosts, but there is not even a corpse in this crystal coffin, which obviously becomes a little unreasonable.

"Don't ask me, I don't know what's going on." Before I could express the doubts in my heart, Li Huiyan said in an uncertain voice.

I was about to ask her, but when I heard this, I had to swallow back what I wanted to say, and it felt as uncomfortable as it was.

Jingle Bell ......

The two bronze chains shook violently again, this time more violently than the previous two. The two huge bronze chains collided with each other with a crisp sound, and even the crystal coffin above the ancient well began to shake violently.

"I'll go up and take a look, be careful." In the end, after I said a word to Li Huiyan, I still had the courage to walk towards the ancient well.

I'm full of curiosity right now, and if I don't know what's underneath the two bronze chains in the ancient well, I don't have the heart to do anything else.

Li Huiyan didn't stop me, and I don't know if she saw my determination, or if she herself was the same as I thought, and wanted to know what was hidden in the ancient well.

I walked to the edge of the mouth of the ancient well again and looked at the two bronze chains that were swaying vertically downward. After a brief hesitation, I took a deep breath and finally bent down and poked my head out to look inside the ancient well.

At this time, I was holding a flashlight given to us by Liu Laoqi before parting. The advantage of this flashlight is that it is small and easy to carry, and the brightness can be adjusted at will, which is much better than the stall I got from Mr. Feng.

While looking at the ancient well, I adjusted the light of the flashlight to the brightest level. An arm-thick dazzling light shot straight into the ancient well, allowing me to clearly see the two bronze chains hanging into the well.

However, I was clearly thinking a little too simplistic.

Just as the flashlight light extended about fifteen meters below the well, the depths of the ancient well were gradually shrouded in white mist. Even though the light of the flashlight in my hand easily pierced through the white mist, I still couldn't see what was underneath the white mist.

I'm a little disappointed, it seems that this ancient well is much more mysterious than I thought, and I can only try it in other ways.

The next moment, I picked up a fist-sized round stone from the ground and threw it into the ancient well without thinking about it.

Since the flashlight can't help me see the depths of the ancient well, I'll use this stone to probe its depth, and I'd like to see how deep it is under the white mist.
