There was a well, and it was dirty and smelly. There was a well, and it was dark and deep.

There was a man, he sighed.

Although Xie Zhi is also in the Six Gates, he is different from Liu Sha Wangtong.

Liu Shawang is also dressed well, but at first glance, he looks like an ordinary person and has a normal job, such as an errand boy.

Xie Zhi is different, Xie Zhi looks like a son-in-law, and his clothes are sometimes more elaborate than Xia Yue.

After that dress goes down the well, it will definitely be wasted, and he won't want it when it is washed.

Fortunately, this time Xie Zhi was prepared, took a torch and tied a rope, Xia Yue slowly lowered him.

If it was an ordinary wall or something, Xie Zhi could easily go up and down, but the stones on the wall of the well were too slippery and there was nowhere to focus, so he only had two options.

Or, jump in directly in a little chic, it is said that the water inside is not deep, even if it is a little deeper, it is not a big problem, thank you will water.

Or, be safe and let Xie Zhi put it down slowly with a rope, it's a little ugly.

Xie Zhi was entangled for a long time, but he still chose to be safe.

People who are about to enter the stinky well, what do they want to be chic?

Xia Yue slowly put down the rope, and soon disappeared into the darkness.

Then he snorted.

Ye Caitang hurriedly said: "What's wrong?" ”

"There's no red algae on the wall of the well as you say." Xie Zhi held a torch and looked carefully at the wall: "But some of them seem to be dry, and I don't know if they were dried by yesterday's fire." ”

He scraped some with a dagger, raised his hand and threw it out, almost throwing it in Ye Caitang's face.

Ye Caitang was looking into the well, and suddenly a black thing rushed over, fortunately Xia Yue pulled her, otherwise the dry moss would have been spread on her face, and she didn't know if it was poisonous or not.

Ye Caitang was very depressed: "Brother Xie, you can squeak when you throw something, otherwise you will hit someone." ”

Xie Zhi didn't know what he threw at all, but his advantage was that he listened to persuasion.

Another scraped off the wall of the well was thrown up with a whoosh.

Xie Zhi said, "Squeak." ”

"......" Ye Caitang took her head back from the well, she can't afford to play in the world of people who know martial arts.

Fortunately, Xie Zhi didn't throw it again after throwing two pieces, and the others were almost the same, so there was no need to throw them again.

Xia Yue dragged him up.

As soon as I dragged it to the mouth of the well, I heard a very slight sound, pounce.

"Hey......" Xie Zhi sighed hurriedly.

What's going on here?

Xia Yue dragged Xie Zhi up.

Xie Zhi touched his waist, and then frowned: "The jade pendant hanging on his waist has fallen off." ”

I don't know when the rope hanging the jade pendant broke, and Xie Zhi didn't notice it.

That jade pendant Ye Caitang has an impression, a piece of mutton fat white jade that is white without a single flaw, it is very expensive to look at. A son-in-law like Xie Pingsheng would not wear a bargain.

Although the water is not deep, it is dirty, and the bottom is greasy, Xie Zhi just tried to hang on the surface of the water, not to get himself dirty, and now thinking about his jade pendant, he is very depressed.

Yu Pei must be fished out, and if he is fished out, he will definitely go into the water, but he really doesn't want to go into this water.

But there wasn't a single one he could call to.

After a while, Xie Zhi said: "You said, if I give ten taels of silver and ask Chu Shijing to find someone to help me go down to fish, can he agree?" ”

Ten taels of silver?

Ye Caitang was moved, she wanted to say that I can actually do it, but I am not too embarrassed.

In fact, she was embarrassed, but she was afraid that Xia Yue would be embarrassed, so she would be embarrassed.

Fortunately, Chu Shijing's people did not stop being rich.

Most of the time in the army, you can be fed and clothed, and if you want to talk about money, unless you are rewarded for meritorious service, there is not much.

Chu Shijing readily agreed.

He picked two from his subordinates who were said to be good at water, and asked them to help Xie Zhi fish for jade pendants.

Ten taels of silver were divided equally between them.

Both of them were happy, and the others were actually a little envious, but they didn't say anything.

Because of the two selected by Chu Shijing, the water nature is second, in the waist-deep water, what do you want to have good water quality, mainly because the family conditions are poor and the burden is heavy, give them a little extra money.

The two of them tied the rope and went down.

Xie Zhi said: "Be careful of snakes, there may be some spider water snakes in such a well." ”

"It's okay, we will definitely be able to get the jade pendant up to Gongzi Xie."

It was not cold in the summer, and the two happily took off their clothes outside, went down shirtless, wearing only a pair of pants.

Ye Caitang watched from the sidelines, his expression was very complicated.

Xia Yue thought that she couldn't bear it, and said in a low voice: "Although it has worked a little hard, but five taels of silver per person is enough for ordinary people to work hard for two years, and they are very happy." ”

Ye Caitang glanced at Xia Yue and said seriously: "I know, ten taels of silver is my salary for five months and one hundred and fifty days, and I am also willing to make money for a while, and I am also very happy." ”

“……”

Xia Yue, a person who has never been short of money, how can he understand this feeling.

The two quickly fished up in the well, fished and fished, and suddenly someone said: "Found it, found it." ”

He lifted something from the water, it was really the jade pendant that Xie Zhi had just fallen into.

At the bottom of the well was a thick layer of silt, which fell into the water again, and the jade pendant was not damaged at all.

Xie Zhi was very happy and asked the two of them to hurry up.

But the other man was still bent over and touching the water, as if touching the wall.

The crowd was surprised.

"Sun Jin." Chu Shijing asked him, "What's the matter?" ”

The man named Sun Jin touched it and said, "General, I feel that there is something wrong with this stone." ”

And they all gathered around.

Chu Shijing hurriedly said, "What's the problem?" ”

Sun Jin said: "I just touched the stone on the side, and it feels like ...... Moved. ”

As soon as he said this, the hearts of the people were moved.

Chu Shijing searched this house inside and out several times many years ago, and he wanted to dig the whole house three feet into the ground, but he really didn't dare to say that the stones in the well were touched one by one.

Now it seems that the problem may be this neglected area.

Chu Shijing said: "Drain the well water." ”

In this era, there was no pump, and it was more troublesome to drain a water source, but fortunately, there was not much water in this well, and Chu Shijing had a group of capable subordinates.

Soon, everyone was in full swing.

Yesterday's fire, today's water, is really a good day.

Buckets of water were brought up from below, and the level of water in the well quickly went down.

The level of water in a well is usually determined by groundwater.

Some wells are located close to the water source, so the water level is relatively high. Some wells, such as the one now, are almost dry and shallow, and it will take at least a dozen hours for them to be restored after they are emptied.

That's enough time for them to check.
