Remember [] in one second, and provide you with wonderful novels to read. γStarterγ
The well was much older than me, and there are two wells in the village, which were born much earlier. At that time, there were so many people in the village that a well could not provide the water needed, so a well was dug in the west, and the killing of the black snake happened when the well was hit in the west.
For so many years, no one has ever said anything about the strangeness of this well, just as it is an ordinary well, where would you think that there would be anything weird.
"What happened to the well?" I asked.
Grandpa Ye didn't say why, but said: "Your grandfather mentioned to me before, saying that the well is related to the lifeblood of this village, and it is also related to his lifeline, if there is a change in the well, it means that his limit is approaching." Don't touch that well, if something happens, it'll hurt your grandfather. β
Zhao Sansan and they were very puzzled, he and Meng Changqing were both extremely confident two people, they all went to see it just now, and they didn't find anything at all. Even the two of them didn't make any major discoveries, so there should be nothing wrong with the well.
However, since Grandpa Ye said so, Zhao Sansan and Meng Changqing still went to the well to check it out, so as not to give birth to any mutations.
After the two of them left, I took a chair and sat next to Grandpa Ye and threw out all the doubts in my heart, but, to my extreme disappointment, Grandpa Ye didn't know anything else except for the big black snake, he was just captured by the black snake, just like Xiaoxiao and Ye Weiting at that time, he was completely doing things under the consciousness of others, he was just a chess piece, and others would definitely not tell him too much.
After I finished asking my question, Grandpa Ye went to see the third uncle, and when he saw the third uncle like this, he was in tears, and he said that he had harmed the third uncle.
He was very old, and I was afraid that he would be too excited and hurt my heart, so I dragged him out and let him go to sleep in another room.
Soon after sending Grandpa Ye to lie down, the sky that was originally shining with high sun was covered with dark clouds, and there was a rumbling sound in the sky.
This is a thundershower, which we call easterly rain here, and because of the terrain, there are often them, and sometimes the wind will blow some tree branches. There is nothing strange about it.
After the rain fell for a while, Meng Changqing and Zhao Sansan came back in the rain, and after changing their clothes after coming back, I asked, "Did you find anything unusual about that well?" β
"No, even the yin qi is gone, it's normal, the yin qi in the water before should be caused by the yin qi left by the snake, and now the snake is scattered, and the yin qi will be dispersed after a while, I think your grandfather said don't move the well should be for us not to move the snake lightly." He looked down on the third master and me too much. Zhao Sansan patted his chest and said.
Meng Changqing did not express an opinion on this, indicating that he also agreed with Zhao Sansan's words.
In fact, Meng Changqing and Li Yan will have entanglements, which can be seen early on. Li Yan is very afraid of people, every time Li Yan is embarrassed in the crowd, Meng Changqing will take her back as soon as possible, besides, which woman doesn't like a man with a sense of security, around us, Meng Changqing is full of security, no wonder Li Yan will fall in love with her.
The other is Meng Changqing, he has a very lonely experience in his youth, as long as there is a little woman around him who is different from him, he can feel it, and Li Yan often blocks him from danger, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not be able to move Meng Changqing's heart.
It's just that these two people are nerds, it's been so long, the two don't even talk much, it's really weird, there are occasional conversations, Meng Changqing just gave Li Yan instructions on things, Li Yan responded with 'um', 'good', etc., so far I haven't heard any other conversations between the two of them except for assigning tasks. They even have very simple names, one directly calls Li Yan, and the other directly calls Mr.
Meng Changqing felt a little uncomfortable when he saw me looking at him in a daze, so he took out the majesty of the master and said, "If you want to be fine, wait for the rain to stop for a while, you go to the well to take a look, don't let the shed collapsed." β
I hummed and waited for the rain to stop, but the rain continued for a day, and it did not stop until the evening, and at last I had no choice but to make a flashlight to the well.
I went to the col and looked at it, because it had rained for a day, the col had become a big ditch, and the water flow was large, and ordinary people couldn't get through it at all.
But my body was taken away by the madman and wandered in the mountains for six years, and I didn't know how many rivers I had crossed, and I crossed the river with water flowing through it with a few strokes of my feet.
Crossing the river to the well, with a flashlight, immediately stopped, under the well canopy is squatting a middle-aged young woman in yellow clothes, aged about 30 years old, although not as good as Li Yanxiaoxiao, but in this township, it is not bad.
Once I was bitten by a snake for ten years and was afraid of the well rope, now when I see people, I will wonder if it is a ghost, and besides, it is still by this well, so I shine a flashlight on her and ask, "Who are you?" Why are you squatting here? β
The young woman looked up at me when she heard this, her face was happy, she stood up and said, "I am from the next village, and the water we eat in our village is borrowed from this well in your village. β
The village is not as convenient as the city, some villages are close to the water source, and the draft is convenient, and some villages without water source will take a big pipe to the village where there is water to draw water, and when the rain washes the water away, they will come back and lift the pipe in the well, and when the water is clean, they will come back and put the water pipe into the well.
"When I came, my cloak fell into the ditch and washed away, and I couldn't cross the river, so I took shelter from the rain under this shed, and I wanted to wait for the rain to light up before it passed." The young woman said, without a moment's thought, it didn't look like it had been made up on an improvised basis.
I looked at her a few more times, walked over and looked at the lanterns and runes hanging in the middle of the well, and when I saw that they were all right, I asked, "You didn't mess with these things, did you?" β
The young woman hurriedly waved her hand and said, "No, no, how dare I move these things." β
I looked around, strengthened the spirit flag and the shed, and then prepared to leave, seeing that this young woman was here alone, and Meng Changqing said that when gathering souls, you can't be contaminated with too much human breath, so I said to her: "I see that this rain will not stop for a while, this wilderness, otherwise I will carry you across the river in a while?" β
When I said this, she was naturally willing, and nodded to me again and again in thanks.
After I came out, I gave her my hat, although I didn't know her well, but I was a big man, and I couldn't be too stingy.
I looked at the road when I arrived, and the ditch here is relatively wide, so it is not a problem to cross the river alone. Both of them were a little adventurous, and were about to say that I should go first, and when she got a ladder to pick her up, she pointed to the upper reaches of the ditch and said, "The flow of water upstream is smaller, let's pass through there, and I'll hold you." β
I also thought it was feasible, so I took her upstream.
The ditch was formed by the convergence of eight or nine small ditches, which had a small flow of water, and when she got here, she grabbed my clothes and began to cross the river.
After crossing the river, she let go of me, thanked me, and then said: "I see that your face is a bit like Ye Jiafu from Snakehead Village, what is your relationship with him?" β
"He's my grandfather." I replied casually, and then said, "You can take this hat first, and then return it when you have time." β
As I was about to leave, the young woman asked, "Is your grandfather at home now?" She still owes me something, and I'll have to ask him if he remembers, and after all this time, don't forget it. β
I thought it was a little strange, how old is my grandfather, what will he have to do with her?
I looked back at her for a while, but she didn't have the slightest ghostly aura on her, and she recited the Pure Heaven and Earth Divine Mantra again, but the young woman still didn't react.
I thought that she shouldn't be a ghost, but I was too nervous, maybe it was really my grandfather who borrowed something from her and forgot to pay it back, so I said: "Grandpa is not in the village, his old man owes you something, I will help him pay it back." β
As soon as I finished speaking, the young woman suddenly put away her smile, and her face was covered with gloom.
When I saw it, I wondered, thinking what did my grandfather owe her, and my face changed so quickly when I heard that my grandfather was not in the village.
The young woman's face was cloudy for a while, and when I saw that she didn't speak, I said, "Otherwise, you should tell my grandfather directly." It's getting dark, go back quickly, I have to go too. β
After speaking, she walked forward against the rain and walked about twenty meters, but she didn't hear any movement behind her, so she thought she was still standing in place and didn't leave, so she looked back.
But where can I see her when I turn around, it's only been less than a minute, where can I go? Thinking that she had fallen into the river, he hurried to the river to take a look, but he followed all the way along the river and saw no trace of her.
He stopped downstream of the ditch, looked up and sighed, "It's something again." β
After that, they trotted all the way back to the house, and after entering the house, they didn't have time to breathe quickly and told them about it, and they were also stunned after hearing it, and after a while, Zhao Sansan said: "It should be that the Soul Banner has attracted a lonely soul and a wild ghost, there is nothing to make a fuss about." β
"But she knew my grandfather and said he owed her something." I said.
Lonely souls and wild ghosts should come from all directions, and they can know my grandfather everywhere. The young woman said that her grandfather owed her something, which meant that there must be some entanglement between them.
Meng Changqing also realized this problem, so he said: "The soul cultivation formation has begun to work, it must not be removed at this time, we will go to the well to guard it later, if there is any accident, it is better to solve it as soon as possible." β
For the time being, there is only this kind of laborious method, and I can only pray that the young woman will not make trouble now, at least until Li Yan reunites.
When we were discussing here, Grandpa Ye came out of the side room with his clothes on, sat down opposite us and said, "A few years ago, there was an axe seller in the village, and the axe seller said three things, saying that as long as these three things are realized, no one can live in the village. β
"What's the matter?" Zhao Sansan asked.
"First, two wells in our village became one; second, a man is born out of a well; Third, the people of the Ye family brought the people born in the well across the river. The axe seller said that as long as these three things were realized, the village would not be able to live in the village. Grandpa Ye said.
How can two wells become one well? It's a few hundred meters away. In addition, how can a person be born in a well, this is completely contrary to common sense. But the third thing, didn't what I just did just take a man across the river?
