"You're going too?" Qian Xia was a little surprised.

Gu Yan gritted his teeth and nodded, "Yes, I'll go with you, I won the first place in the school sports president sprint when I was in junior high school and high school, if there is anything wrong, I will pull you to run!" ”

Qian Xia smiled, and two small dimples were exposed, "Chengbei." ”

The population of this Tianxi village is about 200, but of the more than 200 people, not a single family is located within 100 meters of the water tower.

The old street lamps were dimly lit, and flying insects buzzed around the dusty lamps.

In addition, the country roads are silent.

Gu Yan turned on the flashlight mode on his mobile phone, and the light illuminated the road under his feet.

Gu Yan looked at the water tower in the distance that was hidden in the darkness and seemed to have turned into a giant's hammer, and swallowed and foamed with some difficulty.

"Xiao Xia, don't be afraid, I have 1.73 meters, if something comes, I can help you block the ......" Gu Yan said dryly.

Originally, when she said the first half of the sentence, Qian Xia wanted to comfort her in turn.

But hearing the sentence "one meter seven three" in the back, Qian Xia pursed his lips.

Don't want to talk.

The road of more than 100 meters was not long, and as the two approached, the water tower hidden in the darkness became more and more majestic.

There are no street lights left in this area.

Gu Yan looked left and right, his eyes fell on the unlit street lamp not far away, and he was heartbroken, "This village is not necessarily so poor, why don't you repair this lamp!" ”

Qian Xia said: "Because most people don't come here at night. ”

Gu Yan sighed.

Because no one visits the tower all year round, the weeds next to the water tower are more than one person high, and the plants that are good at climbing cover a small half of the water tower that is more than 20 meters high from the bottom to the top.

When he reached the door, Qian Xia could even see that the stone floor at the entrance of the water tower had cracked, and weeds with extremely tenacious vitality had penetrated through it.

The role of the water tower is to store water, and although there used to be a well in the village, it was as convenient as running water.

So thirty or forty years ago, it was a great thing to have a water tower in the village.

After years of wind and rain, the iron door of the water tower has long been rusty, and when the light of Gu Yan's mobile phone hits it, the rust that has been born over the years is a little weird red.

Gu Yan's teeth trembled, "The one on this door is a bit like the color of blood......

Qian Xia rolled his eyes, "The trivalent iron ions are originally reddish-brown, and of course this iron oxide is also red. ”

Gu Yan was stunned for a moment, and laughed slightly embarrassedly, "My grades in high school were not very good, I don't remember, Xiao Xia's chemistry score must be very good, maybe I can get 80 points." ”

For art students, this 80 points is a super high score, and it can almost be said that it is above the clouds, a bigwig-level figure.

Qian Xia answered casually, and then reached out to push the door.

"Clatter, squeak——! ~"The rusty iron door was pushed open little by little, and the sound from the hinge was as piercing as an awl on an iron sheet.

As the iron door was pushed open, a bone-chilling wind blew out of it, ruffling the broken hair of the two sideburns.

It was pitch black inside, and at first glance it looked like the mouth of a giant beast in a coiled nest.

Gu Yan trembled and raised his phone, and the light shone in a few minutes, lighting up the ground where the floor tiles were cracked and overgrown with weeds.

Qian Xia also took out his mobile phone at this time and turned on the flashlight mode, "Let's go in." ”

Gu Yan gritted his teeth and followed.
