Chapter 475: The Bottom of the Well
In the sky, dark clouds obscured all the light, and on the ground, every house in the village turned off the lights, as if all the light had disappeared that night.
In the boundless darkness, under the dead trees at the head of the village, a dry well lay quietly, and the boulders that had been built on it were moved to the side.
Scattered around the dry well were countless extinguished oil lamps and sticks, as if they had just been plundered.
The villagers screamed in panic and ran away, but this panicked movement did not seem to disturb any sleeping people in the village, and no one poked their heads out to observe.
It's like, I've long been used to this kind of poignant shouting.
When the people were far away, they quietly walked out.
In addition to Zhen approached the wellhead, the bottom of the well was pitch black, and he couldn't see anything clearly, so he turned on the flashlight of his mobile phone and shone it to the bottom of the well.
The light of the flashlight flashed, facing the distorted muscular man at the bottom of the well, and his stunned eyes seemed to have seen something terrifying, and bloodshot eyes instantly covered the bottom of his eyes.
The muscular body had become shriveled, and both cheeks were sunken, and it was almost impossible to see what it had been.
Blood flowed from his body and spread, soaking the bones around him into a bright red.
Except for Zhen, she couldn't help frowning, and from the moment she got close to the well, she felt a fluctuation in her spiritual power.
From time to time, the distinction is unclear.
In addition to looking at He Man, He Man also nodded.
Immediately afterward, she re-operated the paper figure.
When they hid just now, the paper man didn't have time to take it back, and now it was still at the bottom of the well, being pressed by the muscular man.
With He Man's operation, the paper man finally began to move, and crawled out from under the muscular man with difficulty, and finally climbed out, and it was so tired that it lay on the ground for a while.
It took a while to get up, and when I got up, I didn't forget to kick the muscular man hard.
Although its strength is very light, and its lethality is fundamentally zero, it is a breath at all.
After kicking, the paper man turned his head to investigate the surrounding situation.
The paper man groped around the bottom of the well for a while, and suddenly found that there was a black hole behind a corpse.
The hole was not large, probably only allowing a baby to pass through.
The bones were stacked before, and almost all the holes were buried, so the paper didn't find it, but now it was discovered after careful investigation.
He Man manipulated the paper figure to climb up the pile of corpses, and through the small gap, he got into the hole.
After entering, I realized that there was a long passage inside.
The strangest thing is that although the entrance to the cave is small, the passage inside is large enough for one person to pass.
The paper man walked along the passage for a long, long time, and finally saw a staircase, which was covered by a wooden plank as he went up the staircase.
Fortunately, the paper figure was relatively flat, and it was difficult to get out of the side of the plank, and when it came out, it found itself in a deserted courtyard.
Through the induction of the paper people, He Man took them to this courtyard.
The courtyard is in the depths of the village, different from other small western-style buildings, this courtyard has a bit of ancient charm, like a courtyard house a long time ago, I don't know why it was deserted, and it was not demolished.
Except for Zhen tentatively pushing open the door, with a squeak, the door was opened, and a large cloud of dust fell, except for Zhen to quickly take a step back and cover his mouth.
"Phew." Tong Chenghe took a mouthful of dust, snorted twice, and then covered his mouth, frowning, "How long has it been since anyone has been here in this courtyard?"
Taking a step forward and kicking the door open with his foot, more dust fell, Tong Chenghe stretched out his hand and waved.
When the dust settled, several people cautiously walked into the house.
As soon as I entered, I saw weeds all over the yard, and the weeds grew so well that they could bury people's calves when they walked in.
They hadn't taken two steps before they heard a rustling sound.
From the weeds, the familiar little paper figure poked its head out.
It spiritually beckoned to them and pointed in a direction.
Looking in that direction, I saw a familiar plank, or rather a cellar.
That plank was the door to the cellar.
I just don't know why, this cellar is connected to a deep well.
When you open the door to the cellar, you will find the familiar passage.
Several people entered the passage, and the little paper man led the way in front, and after turning around and turning around, except for Zhen, she almost lost her mind, and finally, she saw the familiar entrance to the cave.
It's just that the hole is so small that it can't be passed through at all.
Except for a try, he finally gave up, squatted down, looked through the small hole, and saw countless dry bones at the bottom of the well, and the unformed muscular man who had been twisted.
Except for Zhen touching the seat of the hole, this hole is very strange.
The outer layer of the cave was made of bricks, which had sealed the hole that could have allowed a person to pass through, but in this brick wall, someone had carved out a hole the size of a baby.
In addition to Zhen reached out to touch the brick wall, the flashlight shone on the brick wall, and among the red bricks, he faintly saw a faint yellow.
She narrowed her eyes, and the thing looked like ...... Rune paper?
"He Man, look at this, is it a rune paper?"
Ge Zhen asked as he moved out of the way, pointing to the yellow peeking out of the brick wall.
He Man stepped forward and looked at it for a long time, "It seems that it is indeed ......."
She carefully pulled out the rune paper, but the brick wall was so tight that the rune paper was only half pulled out before it was broken, but from the half of the charm on the yellow paper, she could be sure that it was indeed a rune paper.
"No wonder there are so many dead corpses in this well, but not a single unjust soul can be recruited, it turns out that they have all been suppressed at the bottom of the well by these runes." He Man snorted coldly.
Except for Zhen and looking up at the brick wall, "You say, this well is only so narrow in the first place?"
He Man was stunned for a moment, puzzled.
"What do you mean?"
"I used to look at this well from the outside, and it didn't feel so small, but from the inside, it was very narrow, I doubted...... This brick wall was built from behind, just to pile these charms inside this brick wall."
In other words, the villagers artificially built this well specifically to kill people.
He Man finally understood, the expression on his face changed and changed, except for anger or anger, he opened his mouth but didn't know what to scold.
I feel that scolding is not enough to express my anger.
At this time, the moonlight revealed by the dark clouds above was blocked again, and unless I looked carefully, I found that it was the villagers who did not know when they would come back, and repressed the boulder that was originally on the ground covered with dog blood on the well.
