Chapter 32: Three people watch the well
The two walked silently for a while, and Chiyang suddenly pulled Jiang Chen, raised his arm and pointed to the open area in the distance.
"Isn't that Miss Lin?"
Jiang Chen took a closer look and saw a white shadow standing under a well pavilion, stretching out his swan-like jade neck, and looking into the well next to him.
That elegant and slender figure is undoubtedly Lin Xi.
"It's strange, she's so conspicuous in white, isn't she afraid of being discovered?"
Lin Xi's position happened to be on the patrol route of the two family members, and she seemed to be aware of it, glanced at it casually, and continued to look down at the well.
The stranger thing was still to come, but the two family members ignored her, and walked past the well pavilion without stopping.
Jiang Chen shouted in his heart, hell, aren't the two family members in front of him blind, such a big person can't see it?
But he had shown hostility to Lin Xi before, and he was embarrassed to lean over and ask Lin Xi what was going on, so he only glanced at Chiyang.
Chiyang was also quite puzzled by this, walked to the well, and also looked inside, only to see a piece of darkness, so he asked, "Miss Lin, what are you looking at?" Is there something in the well? ”
"There's resentment." Lin Xi replied, his eyes never leaving the well.
"It's normal." Jiang Chen said, "The well, the image of the Yellow Spring, the intermediary of heaven and earth." In the underworld, there is naturally some resentment. ”
Lin Xi said: "The resentment in this is very strange, like yin but not yin, like yang and not yang. And I heard the baby's cry......"
Following Lin Xi's description, Jiang Chen glanced at the dark wellhead, and his heart was in a trance.
His vision suddenly became confused, and he felt dizzy.
He quickly stood firm, blinked carefully, and saw a scene between the real and the unreal—
At the black wellhead, a black mass suddenly appeared, spread out like aquatic plants, covering the entire wellhead.
If you look closely, it is not a water plant at all, but countless black hairs, twisted like thin snakes, dancing, and weaving into terrifying shapes.
"You're finally here......"
An ethereal and ghostly woman's voice came from the well.
Jiang Chen asked strangely, "Who are you?" Do you know I'm coming? ”
"I've been waiting for you for a long time...... Help me......"
The woman's ghostly and ethereal cry for help was getting closer and closer to the mouth of the well, as if she was about to climb up.
Jiang Chen fixed his eyes and saw that among the dark and dense black hair, a bloody palm stretched out, and five fingers were extremely bent due to pain......
"Save My Child......"
As if sensing Jiang Chen's existence, the cry for help became more and more desolate, desperate, and sharp.
Jiang Chen couldn't help but stretch out his palm, about to hold it with the bloody hand in the black hair......
At this time, there was a sharp pain in the blood stains on his arm. The wound, which had not healed, seemed to have been torn deeper, and blood was gushing outward.
Jiang Chen shuddered suddenly, jumped back a big step, and rubbed his eyes vigorously.
Looking up again, the black wellhead is silent and quiet, where are there any black hairs and blood-colored palms? There were no cries for help at all!
Is what I just saw and heard all hallucinations?
No! It should be that Ben Shaoxia unconsciously communicated with this well and felt the resentment in the well......
Jiang Chen shook his head vigorously, gathered his mind, and shook off the illusion and auditory hallucination.
Looking at the mouth of the well again, he was extremely vigilant, and only felt that it was an entrance to the Yellow Spring.
He had been sure of one thing—there was indeed something in this well, most likely a mother and son, and Bacheng was the lady and her child that Chiyang had said.
Although in Chiyang's mouth, that Mrs. Ru was well-read and courteous, and she was a virtuous woman, Jiang Chen recalled the scene just now, and only felt a chill in his back.
- The mother and son in the well are extremely dangerous! They were able to take the initiative to channel with a god refining cultivator like Jiang Chen, luring him to be a substitute for the dead ghost!
No matter how gentle and virtuous Mrs. Ru was during her lifetime, after becoming a ghost, she would inevitably show her hideous and terrifying face.
If Jiang Chen hadn't reached the fourth-order "psychic" realm, he could maintain the last bit of clarity and wake up in time, I am afraid that he would have fallen into the well just now and become the substitute ghost of the mother and son!
The so-called "haunting" of the Xue family, could it be that this well is the fault?
Is the cry of a baby that people hear coming from this well?
But if both mother and son are trapped in a well, it can only affect a small area, why is the entire Xue Mansion dead now?
Lin Xi had been observing Jiang Chen's expression, and when he saw that his expression was different, he asked, "Jiang Shaoxia, did you see something?" ”
Jiang Chen calmed down and nodded, "Well, there is dirt in the well." ”
Lin Xi asked, "What is it?" ”
"I don't see it clearly."
Chiyang's voice came from the side: "Go down and take a look!" ”
Chiyang said, pressing his hands on the well railing, and raised his feet to jump in.
"Wait." Jiang Chen hurriedly grabbed him, "You don't even know what's in it, so you jump into it recklessly, aren't you afraid of being entangled by water ghosts and never coming back?" ”
"A few little ghosts, what can you do to me?" Chiyang is a martial arts master, with strong blood and energy, and he is naturally not afraid of sneakiness.
"The person we're looking for isn't inside, don't make any extraneous branches!" Jiang Chen pointed to the two family members who were far away in front of him, "They are going to go away, let's follow quickly, it's important to find Song Qi." ”
If Jiang Chen still had sympathy for Mrs. Ru's mother and son at the beginning, after the scene just now when he was almost regarded as a substitute for the dead, the sympathy in his heart disappeared to the point that there was nothing left.
He didn't want to care about the family's business at all now, he just wanted to get out of this place as soon as possible.
When the two left, Jiang Chen caught a glimpse of Lin Xi's eyes out of the corner of her eye, she seemed to be quite disappointed, and she was a little angry.
Jiang Chen was more and more sure that she had other thoughts, and she didn't say anything about it, and she was even more vigilant in her heart.
If she was really a cultivator of the seventh-order "Yin God" realm, she only needed to move a single thought, and she could pull up this well with water and mud, so that the things in the well could not be hidden, so why bother to pull Chiyang into the water?
As the saying goes, one person does not enter the temple, two people do not look at the well, three people do not hold the tree, and sit alone on the railing.
If Chiyang goes down, only Ben Shaoxia and her two are left to watch the well above, in case she intends to cause harm, how can she fight her alone?
Moreover, just based on the performance of those two family members turning a blind eye to Lin Xi, Jiang Chen felt that she was weird, and she couldn't even get rid of the haunting of the Xue Mansion, so how could he not guard against her.
After following the family out of the distance, Jiang Chen turned around and saw Lin Xi still standing by the well, a lonely beautiful shadow, quietly like a Bodhisattva statue.
