Arnold couldn't help but shrink his neck at this moment, the sky was getting too fast, and even he couldn't help but be a little suspicious.

Lu Weilin said: "Spring rain is a very common thing, don't scare yourself." ”

Luo Lie pointed to the big pit and said, "Look!"

Everyone looked in the direction pointed by Luo Lie, but saw that the big pit was rapidly accumulating, after all, the big pit they dug had become the lowest-lying place in the entire Zhengjue Temple, so all the rainwater around it was collected here, and only when the stagnant water did not pass the wellhead did it flow into the Suolong Well.

The rain continued until three o'clock in the afternoon, and the Suolong well became a flood drainage channel, although the rain was heavy, but it never flooded the wellhead. The water level in the well has not risen much, and it appears that there is another drainage channel underneath the well.

When the sun emerges from the clouds again, a rainbow stretches across the sky, even more beautiful against the pure blue sky. After a while, the stagnant water in the pit had dissipated cleanly.

After several people discussed, they finally reached a consensus, and decided to pull up the iron chain that locked the dragon well, and see what the end of the iron chain was tied to, although the blind man was full of reluctance, but in line with the principle of the minority obeying the majority, he still agreed.

They bolted the gate, then applied the winch to the hard flat ground, connected the chain under the lock dragon well with a rope, and rolled the chain up by the rotation of the winch. Zhang Changgong, Arnold, and Luo Lie were responsible for rotating the winch, and the blind man was responsible for observing at the wellhead.

Although the sparrow was also full of curiosity, it really couldn't stand the rancid smell coming from the wellhead, so he could only stand outside the pit and watch from afar.

However, it turned out that the blind man's worries were unnecessary, and it didn't take them long to see the results, and the other end of the chain was not tied to any demon dragon, but nothing, just an iron chain.

Looking at the end of the rusty iron chain, the blind man couldn't help but scold, I don't know who was so mischievous that he actually made a chain to shake them.

Judging from the length of the chain, it is about 30 meters long, and the end of the chain has been soaked in water for many years, and the rust is serious, and there are obvious signs of breakage, so it can be inferred that the other end of the chain must have something else bolted

Lu Weilin was obviously unwilling to accept the current result, and he decided to go down to see the situation in person.

Although Luo Lie did not object to his idea of going to investigate, he was not worried that Lu Weilin would go in alone, and after several people discussed, it was decided that Luo Lie, the blind man, and Lu Weilin would enter the exploration, and the other three would be responsible for answering it.

Before excavating the Zhengjue Temple, they had made sufficient preparations, weapons and equipment were naturally not a problem, the three of them were fully armed, considering that they might enter the water when they turned back, they were wearing water inside, and their bodies were tightly wrapped, and even gas masks were equipped, and they also smeared their clothes with liquid medicine that could repel snakes and insects, but these snake repellent potions were bought from outside by the blind man just now, and the original intention was to disperse the poisonous snakes in the pit, but they didn't expect it to come in handy.

Fearing that the chain was so corroded that it might break halfway through, they found the rope again.

Lu Weilin was the first to enter the lock dragon well, the blind man was second, and Luo Lie was responsible for the break. The wellhead is narrow, and the blind man's fat body is also worthy of squeezing in, according to the blind man's thoughts, he doesn't want to take the initiative to wade into this troubled water, but since Luo Lie has decided to enter it to find out, as Luo Lie's best friend, he naturally can't lag behind, although several people are carrying flashlights, but after all, they have to use their night eyes at critical moments.

After entering the wellhead, the bottom suddenly became wider, the four walls of the well were all made of stones, and there was still rainwater infiltrating from the cracks in the stones, and the three of them slowly descended in turn, and on the way down, Lu Weilin kept using a flashlight to irradiate the surrounding well walls to prevent snakes and insects hidden in the well walls.

The blind don't need these things, just keep their balance and control the speed of their descent to control it.

When Luo Lie descended to about ten meters, he heard a sparrow's concerned voice from the wellhead: "Luo Lie, are you okay?"

Luo Lie flashed the flashlight twice, indicating that everything was normal, and continued to descend and found that the diameter of the lock dragon well was expanding, Lu Weilin paused, and the light of the flashlight shone on the surrounding well wall, and found that there were two long dragons with teeth and claws engraved on the wall of the well, and the two long dragons looked at each other, and their front paws stretched out, competing for a round bead.

The blind man pointed to the wall of the well, and Luo Lie nodded to him, because he was wearing a gas mask, so it was not convenient to talk.

Lu Weilin continued to descend, the blind man turned on the flashlight and shone a beam of light on his face, Lu Weilin was reminded by him to stop temporarily. In this environment, the blind men had the best eyesight, and although they had descended about ten meters, they could not see the surface of the water at the bottom of the well, because a white mist was shrouded in the water.

If they continue downward, they will enter this mist.

Lu Weilin did not hesitate, and took the lead in entering the mist, Luo Lie and the blind man did not rush in, and after a while, Lu Weilin's voice came from below: "Come down, it's okay!"

Lu Weilin controlled his body with one hand and two feet, took off his gas mask, tried to take a breath, and felt that the air below was much fresher than the wellhead, and even the unpleasant stench just now miraculously disappeared, and his chest was also relaxed.

Luo Lie and the blind man walked through the fog layer that was about two meters thick, and saw that Lu Weilin was fine, Luo Lie and the blind man also took off their gas masks and put them away, they were really angry with this thing.

The sparrow endured the stench at the mouth of the well and asked again, "Luo Lie, how are you?"

The blind man smiled: "Why do you care about Luo Lie, and you don't worry about us?"

Hearing his response, the sparrow knew that several people were fine, and said with concern: "Don't take off the gas mask easily, the air below may be poisonous." ”

The blind man took a hard breath and said, "I don't know how fresh it is, don't worry." He looked down, about ten meters away from the surface of the water below, and the water surface was tumbling like a boil, and the blind man blinked his eyes before he saw thousands of water snakes churning under the surface of the water, and he immediately felt creepy.

Two pillars of light were projected on the water surface, and Luo Lie and Lu Weilin also saw the situation on the water surface at the same time, but fortunately, there were no snakes and insects around the well wall.

"Go up!" suggested the blind man, who was most afraid of snakes, and could not help but feel a little furious when he saw the sight of the snakes dancing in the water.

After Lu Weilin saw the situation below, he also felt that he would encounter danger if he continued to go down, so he nodded, but listened to Luo Lie: "Wait! Look, the water surface is constantly falling!"

The two of them followed Luo Lie's guidance and looked, and sure enough, they saw that the water level of Kung Fu had dropped a lot at this time, and their position was a little farther away from the water surface. After about ten minutes, the water surface had dropped about three meters compared to just now, and a square tripod revealed its true face from the bottom of the water.

Luo Lie was overjoyed in his heart, thinking of the Jizhou Ding that Mu Sanshou entrusted him to find, could it be that this Fang Ding hidden under the water was the Jizhou Ding?

The water snakes gradually moved away from them as the water level descended, and the blind man was sure that there were no water snakes left on the bronze tripod, so he continued to descend, the square tripod was about three feet long, two feet wide, and the height of the ears was about three feet, and the four legs stood on a bronze platform, which was circular, more than three meters in diameter and about one foot thick, and the bottom was connected to three stone pillars, leading to the bottom of the well.

The copper tripod is engraved with words, although Luo Lie's knowledge in Xia Wen is unparalleled, but these golden small seals are not his strength, and the blind man and Lu Weilin don't know anything, and they don't dare to risk continuing to go down. There was a toad squatting in the copper tripod, with a long mouth, and its head held high to the sky.

When the sparrow heard that a bronze tripod engraved with words had been found below, his curiosity was immediately aroused, and with the help of Zhang Longbow and Arnold, he also slid down the rope to the well and joined Luo Hunt and the three of them. After reading the text on the tripod, the sparrow said: "Could it be that this is Jizhou Ding!"

Luo Lie was pleasantly surprised: "Jizhou Ding, but Jizhou Ding, one of the nine Dings?"

Sparrow smiled: "This Jizhou tripod is by no means one of the legendary nine tripods, it is engraved with the age, this tripod is cast in the Qing Dynasty, it should be used for the town water." This is not a lock dragon well, but one of the many flood outlets in the garden. ”

After Luo Lie heard this, he was not only disappointed, but he also had a question, where was the iron chain connected before it was rusted and broken?

Lu Weilin also considered the same question, and said in a low voice: "Is that iron chain used to connect the copper tripod?"

The blind man shook his head and said, "No, there is no rust on the copper tripod, but the iron chain is rusty, have you noticed it?" He pointed up.

The other three didn't know what he was referring to, and the blind man said, "The other end is tied to that ball." The ball he was referring to was the bead that the two dragons were fighting for on the wall of the well, in fact, the three of Luo Lie also saw the bead, but their vision in the dark was limited, although they saw the bead, they couldn't see the details on it.

The blind man said: "If I guess correctly, the other end of the chain should be connected to the iron ball, use the iron chain to pull the iron ball out, and then put the iron ball into the mouth of this toad, you can trigger the mechanism." ”

Luo Lie looked down at the toad in the ding, and recalled the ball that the two dragons were fighting for, and it seemed to be about the same size.

Lu Weilin's eyes were a little more admiring when he looked at the blind man at this time, and he was impressed by the three days, and he couldn't imagine that the blind man's mind had become so bright.

Sparrow said: "It sounds like there is some truth. ”

The blind man laughed, "Of course. ”

Lu Weilin had already moved, climbing up the rope, he wanted to get the ball down and verify the blind man's speculation.

Lu Weilin didn't take much effort to get the ball off the wall and bring it back to the platform, he looked at his companions, and after asking for their consent with his eyes, he put the ball into the toad's mouth, and the ball entered the toad's mouth, and then it slid down the toad's abdomen, and a rumbling sound sounded.

There was a creaking sound above their heads, and before they could figure out what was happening, a stream of water rushed down from above.
