Chapter Forty-Nine: The Alien Remains
I thought to myself, my brother not only knows about the cold bone well, but also went down to it himself! But I'm not going to talk about that. I listened to her soft tone, and there was no anger on her face, so I said, "This well is a little strange, and it still doesn't ......."
Before I could finish my sentence, I suddenly felt a sharp pain in my chest, as if I had been whipped so hard that I jumped to my feet. When I looked down and ripped open my collar, I saw a long blood streak on it from my chest to my shoulders, which was shocking.
I was afraid that she would smoke again, so I begged for mercy and said, "I'll go, can't I go!" He took off his shoes, socks, and jacket, and looked into the well, and then turned back and ran back into the house.
"What are you doing?" Qingzi said coldly.
"This well is too deep, I'll go and carry the rope out, otherwise I won't be able to go down." As I spoke, without stopping, I prepared to go into the house and look for the bundle of thick hemp rope that I had just bought in the afternoon.
But as soon as he took a step, his ankle was in sharp pain, and he was smacked again for no apparent reason. I jumped to my feet in pain, and if it weren't for the fact that this woman really couldn't be provoked, I really wanted to scold her.
"Did I tell you to take the rope?" Aoko's cold voice floated from behind, "I'm letting you go down by yourself!" ”
I turned around with a bitter face, felt the blood on my ankles, and limped to the well. From the wellhead, this well is similar to the octagonal well in the courtyard of the dead man's face, with a diameter of about half a meter.
Since this well is the structure of the horn urn, and so on, and then down, the width of the well will gradually expand, becoming one meter or even two meters, I am short of hands, can not support the wall of the well. If the two wells were of similar depth, they would have to be about 20 meters deep.
I'm going to fall straight from above, and I'm going to die at the bottom of the well if I can't keep it.
"What are you grinding about?" Aoko's impatient voice sounded behind her. Usually I think this woman's voice is still very good, although it is cold and inhumane, but it is delicate and pleasant.
But it sounded like a magic sound at the moment, and it tickled me so hard. For fear of taking another step of hesitation, he would be hit again, so he went to the edge of the well and looked inside.
At this time, it was already late, about ** o'clock in the evening. There were no lights in the yard, only sporadic lights coming through the house. I lay on my stomach for a while, only to feel the cold air in the well steaming, which stirred up the sweat on my body. Adjusted his breathing, and groped his way into the well and climbed down.
Since there was no rope to draw on, I had to use my hands and feet to support the wall of the well and slowly lower it. Luckily, the walls of the well were quite dry, and there was no moss or anything like that. As I moved down, I could feel the width of the well getting bigger and bigger, and the water vapor was getting more and more abundant, and the biting cold air came up from below, making me shiver a few times.
I had just come out of the laundry, and I was covered in sweat and shivered with cold. After moving a little further down, I felt that my hands and feet were not long enough, and when I looked down, it was pitch black and I couldn't see the bottom, and I didn't know how deep it was.
I didn't dare to climb any further, and if I went down any further, my hands and feet could not reach it, so I could only barely support it, and my hands and feet began to tremble slightly. Now it's frozen there, neither up nor down. Just as I was hesitating, I suddenly heard a bang above my head, and before I could react, the cold liquid poured down my head.
I was so frightened that my hands and feet slipped, and I immediately fell from mid-air. Before I could come to my senses, I immediately hit the surface of the water and sank into the water with a bang. The cold well water made me feel cold, choked a few mouthfuls of water, and after touching the soft silt at the bottom of the well, I finally came to my senses, and my feet kicked down hard, and I surfaced with the help of force.
After taking a deep breath, I felt a sense of happiness for the rest of my life. There was a burning pain in my eyes, and there was a smell of detergent, and I only then came back to my senses, it turned out that the dead woman of Qingzi had just poured a basin of laundry water from above.
Fortunately, this well is much shallower than the cold bone well in the courtyard of the dead man's face. Falling from where I was just now, it didn't do much damage.
Floating on the surface of the water and looking overhead, only a bright circle can be faintly seen. In this summer, it was like sinking in the ice at the bottom of this well, and most of my body was immersed in water, only to feel very cold, shivering, and soon my mouth was white, and I had strings of goosebumps on my body.
I scolded the dead woman of Qingzi in my heart, and quickly swam to the side to hold the edge of the well, closed my eyes and breathed a few beats, so that my heartbeat slowed down as much as possible and conserved my strength.
But when I stopped, it became even colder, and I couldn't bear the cold, so I had to swim at the bottom of the well. This well is indeed a typical horn urn structure, where I am now, at least two meters in diameter. In other words, this well is indeed a solid cold bone well, and I don't know what is sealed below.
I had this thought in my mind, and after floating on the surface of the water for a while, I always felt that something was staring up at me under my feet, which made my scalp tingle and my hair stand on end.
Later, I couldn't bear it anymore, so I simply took a deep breath and dived. The depth of the well water was about five or six meters, and in a moment I sank to the bottom of the well, and I only felt my feet touch the soft mud. I took my breath and walked and groped my way through the water. After touching it around, I didn't find anything.
It wasn't until I touched it again that I suddenly stepped on something, hard, cold, but not awkward. Squatting down and touching it, it looked like an arm-thick chain.
At this time, I couldn't hold my breath, I floated to the surface and took a deep breath, then sank down again, looked for the position and touched the chain, picked it up, pulled it, and found that the other end of the chain seemed to be connected to something. My heart moved, and I touched the chain. When he reached the end, he found that one end of the chain was above.
I pulled the chain and floated up, and when I reached the end, I suddenly touched a round thing. When I touched it closely, I knew it was a skull, and below that was the body, chained to the waist. I touched it more closely, and I felt a nail-like object on the chest of the skeleton, and pulled it out hard, but it didn't come out, and it seemed to run through the chest of the white bone, deeply embedded in the wall of the well.
No wonder I didn't touch anything at first, it turned out that the white bone was nailed to the top.
In the well, it was pitch black, and I could not see my fingers, and I could only touch it with my hands, and I felt that the skeleton seemed to be quite small, like an underage child. But after touching it for a while, I felt that something was wrong. At this time, the qi in my chest had run out, and I could only surface.
After taking a few deep breaths, I held on to the edge of the well and had some scalp numbness, rested for a while, sank into the water again, and found the white bone and touched it carefully, sure enough, a long flat bone grew out of the back of the white bone, about half a meter long, and the bone joints were craggy, as if a tail had grown!
I was taken aback, and immediately emerged from the bottom of the water, and floated on the surface of the water for a long time, still frightened. I had just examined his head inch by inch, starting with his head, and although I could not see it visually, its outline was vaguely clear, and it was supposed to be a young man between fifteen or sixteen years of age.
But how can a man grow a tail?
My heart was furious, and I was a little frightened. This thing was nailed to the bottom of the well, and it was still chained around it, and I am afraid that this cold bone well was used to seal it. What the hell is this? And who sealed it here?
Is it the original owner of this house, or is it Bai Wenli?
I thought about it for a while, only to feel that my body was getting colder and colder, the well water was extremely cold, and there was an indescribable cold breath that soaked directly into my skin and froze to my bones.
I shouted a few times at the mouth of the well, but there was no response for a long time. I'm really afraid that the dead woman of Qingzi has gone back to sleep upstairs by this time, and has forgotten me here. If that's the case, I guess she'll be able to fish up my body tomorrow morning.
It was so dark around me that I didn't even know what was coming closer. I was cold and scared, and soon I couldn't get through it. I felt a few times along the wall of the well, looking for any place to climb up.
