Li Chengcheng began sword training when he was six years old, and one summer, he followed the sword servant Li Changfu to practice sword in his ancestral home. In the southeast of the courtyard, there is a well, and the water is sweet.

One day, when he opened his first knack, he felt thirsty and ran to the well to draw water. When I came to the well, I suddenly felt that there seemed to be a shadow flashing in the well. His youthful nature and curiosity triumphed, so he lay down at the mouth of the well to watch.

At this moment, a strange force suddenly came from the well, enveloping his whole body, pulling him towards the well. Li Qingcheng was shocked, grabbed the eaves of the well hard, and wanted to shout, but he couldn't open his mouth. The force, as if full of temptation, and as if someone was whispering in his ear, his whole body was out of his control, and he fell into the water with a thud.

Fortunately, Li Changfu rushed to rescue him when he heard the sound, but Li Chengcheng was frightened, and he was sick for half a month, Li Xiaohua had found countless doctors in the city, and he could not cure this strange disease. What is amazing is that after this serious illness, Li Qingcheng's understanding of the sword path has increased greatly, and he rarely gets sick. However, after Li Chengcheng experienced this difficulty, he was also afraid of the ancestral house and the well, Li Xiaohua ordered people to seal the wellhead with green bricks, and paved the stone slabs, and reopened a well outside the courtyard.

A long time has passed since this incident, if it weren't for today's events, Li Chengcheng would never have remembered it, and he told Xiao Jinyan the story.

Xiao Jinyan said, "Is there any secret to the well you said? Do you remember the location of the well?"

Over the years, the Li family's ancestral house has been repaired every year, but the overall structure has basically not changed. ”

Li Chengcheng went to the firewood room to find a shovel and handed it to Xiao Jinyan, Xiao Jinyan said, "Why me?"

"You can't let the third young master of the Li family in Jinling do this kind of rough work, right? Besides, I have lost all my martial arts, and it is more appropriate for you to do this kind of hard work. ”

Xiao Jinyan was speechless and took the shovel, where his two strings of force were suppressed, and he couldn't mobilize the true yuan of heaven and earth, so he could only throw off his strength and dig up. For about half an hour, a half-zhang deep pit was dug there, but I never saw the well that Li Chengcheng said.

"You can't be mistaken, can you?"

Li Chengcheng said, I can't even remember my own things? Xiao Jinyan stepped on the shovel with one foot, and suddenly heard a "ding" sound, as if he had touched a hard object, he dug a few more times, and dug out an iron plate from the ground.

The iron plate is two feet square, buried in the ground all the year round, it is rusty, it looks like ordinary pig iron, and there seems to be handwriting looming on one side. The two of them found sandpaper and polished it carefully before they could vaguely recognize the words on it.

Lee Kee teppanyaki!

"This ......" Xiao Jinyan looked at Li Chengcheng and said, "Your Li family ancestor still did this business?"

Li Chengcheng spread his hands and said, "How do I know? Maybe there are people with good deeds who deliberately make trouble." He stood at the mouth of the cave and muttered, "Strange, if there is an ancient well, I am afraid that it has already been dug up, how can it be so troublesome? Could it be that I am mistaken?" and he came to another place, "Why don't you try it here?"

Although Xiao Jinyan's martial arts skills are high, he has never done such a thing, and he can't use his internal strength, so he is already tired and has a sore back, and he can't help but be annoyed, "It seems that you don't have a good memory." ”

Xiao Jinyan was anxious to urinate, seeing that there was no one around, he took a dip at the entrance of the cave, and Li Chengcheng said, "Can you be serious?"

Xiao Jinyan laughed, "Back then, Sun Monkey ran to the 'Five Finger Mountain' of the Buddha, and also left a souvenir, you let me do it in vain, what's wrong with peeing?"

He was about to dig when he suddenly became alert and said, "Someone's coming?" ”

Xiao Jinyan pulled Li Chengcheng, climbed to a tree, and looked down by the moonlight. Not long after, more than a dozen swordsmen came to the ancestral house, and it was the group of people who chased and killed them during the day.

Li Xiangzhong also came to the ancestral house.

"Steward Li, our people saw Li Tingcheng's surname Xiao Di enter this mansion, but in order not to startle the snake, he never rushed in. ”

Although Li Xiangzhong is the elder of the Li family, he is not a descendant within the fifth generation, and this ancestral house has also been there, he looked up and down, and saw the hole that Xiao Jinyan dug, and couldn't help frowning, "Go and see what you find." ”

A ghost Fan Lou swordsman stepped forward to investigate, grabbed the loose soil and sniffed it, and threw it on the ground, "This doesn't smell right." ”

Not far away, Xiao Jinyan smiled secretly, he already knew that there would be a tuba.

Li Xiangzhong looked around the field and found the iron plate not far away, he picked it up, put the torch over, and read, "Li Ji teppanyaki? Is this the secret that Li Xiaohua said?"

The swordsman said, "In my opinion, these two people haven't fled far yet, so they must have seen us coming, and they didn't have time to take them away." ”

"Hold here, and I'll report to the chief. With that, Li Xiangzhong took the iron plate and left the ancestral house.

The ghost fan lou swordsman occupied the entire ancestral house, and the two of them hid in the dark, neither advancing nor retreating, Xiao Jinyan said in a low voice, "Why don't I go and lure them away, you try to escape?"

Li Chengcheng shook his head, "The well has not been found yet, if I leave like this, I will not be reconciled." ”

In the courtyard, several swordsmen were patrolling, and on the left side of the south gate, there was a bronze bell, and a swordsman was idle, picked up the ram, and struck it vigorously.

Boom!

The bell rang and echoed in the ancestral home.

Another said, "Fourth, what are you doing?"

The swordsman who was replaced by the fourth child smiled, "Anyway, it's okay to do it, ring the bell and play it, maybe you can knock out some movement." ”

The man said, "Don't knock on that thing, it's bad luck in the middle of the night." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard another bell ringing in the middle of the night. The man was startled, "Tell you to stop knocking." ”

The fourth said, "I didn't knock, I didn't knock." ”

"There is a bell in the yard, you didn't ring it, could it be that I didn't ring it?"

The two were arguing when they heard another bell. Obviously, the bell did not come from the courtyard entrance, and this time the sound was not as crisp as the previous bell, but there was a faint sense of heaviness.

The crowd was alarmed. The swordsman at the head ordered people to look around, but they could not find the source of the bell, and at that moment, the bell rang again.

The fourth old man pointed to the ground in the courtyard, his face was full of horror, and said, "The bell is coming from the ground!"

"What nonsense, even if there is a bell buried underground, you can't ring it!"

Knock knock, knock knock.

No more, no less, a total of eighteen strokes.

The people were convinced that the bell was indeed coming from the ground.

A gust of wind blew, and everyone had goosebumps all over their bodies, "What a fucking evil door!" Although everyone is a ghost fan lou swordsman, and their martial arts are not weak, but what they encounter now is too evil, and they are afraid in their hearts.

But some people don't believe in evil, he saw the shovel on the ground, picked it up, dug at the ground, dug the ground, and after a while, a stone slab was exposed, and the stone slab was lifted, and it was a dry well!

The swordsmen gathered around and looked down the well.

In the ancient well, there seemed to be a shadow shaking, and the fourth old man shouted, "There are ghosts!"

The leader scolded, "What are you afraid of, Zi Bu is silent, there must be someone pretending to be a ghost, don't forget, these are what our ghost Fan Lou is best at." ”

The Ghost Fan Tower is independent of the Hidden Yang City, and the vast majority of the Hidden Yang people don't know where it is, and sometimes if the people mistakenly break into the territory of the Ghost Fan Tower, they will also pretend to be ghosts and scare them, so that the area where they are hiding will spread the legend of haunting.

"Besides, even if there are really ghosts, they can't stop us from having too many people. Fourth, you go down and have a look first. ”

The old man retreated again and again, and sat down on the ground, no matter what the chief said, but he still refused to go down the well, and the leader said, "Well, there is a beautiful woman in the well." Don't you lack a daughter-in-law, go down and catch it, it's yours. ”

The fourth child dared to step forward, and the leader kicked him down, "Wait for you to come up, Lao Tzu will buy you a daughter-in-law in Jinling City!"

Hear a flutter.

The leader shouted into the well, "What did you find?"

The fourth child did not answer, and the leader shouted a few more times, but never got any feedback from the fourth child, so he looked at the rest of the people, who were obviously very afraid of him and avoided his gaze. The leader said angrily, "On weekdays, one by one pretends to be heroes and heroes, and when something happens, all of them are cowards, if you don't go, Lao Tzu will go down!"

He ordered a torch to be frought, and a rope to be tied to a basket, and prepared to sit down.

Before going down, he said, "You wait here, if I pull the rope twice in a while, it will confirm that it is safe, and if I pull the rope three times, you will pull me up, remember?"

Everyone nodded, "Big brother, remember." ”

The leader held a sword in his left hand and a torch in his right hand, and was sent down to the bottom of the well by everyone.

The person above asked, "Big brother, have you found anything?"

I heard the leader of the well shouting, "Yes. ”

"What discovery?"

"The fourth child fell to his death! I didn't expect this fucking well to be so deep!"

Xiao Jinyan and Li Chengcheng were on the tree, taking all this into their eyes, but fortunately, everyone's attention was in the dry well and they didn't notice the two.

He asked in a low voice, "If there is a secret hidden in this well, I am afraid that they will find it." What to do?"

Li Chengcheng said, "Back then, I felt that there was something strange in the well, but I was in awe and didn't dare to go down, and now the Li family is in danger, if the secret of saving the Li family is hidden in the ancient well, it is the Longtan Tiger's Den, and we have to break through." ”

At this time, seeing that the rope was pulled three times, one person said, "Big brother wants to come up!"

Everyone was busy pulling the rope, "Why is it so much lighter?"

Someone quipped, "Maybe the big brother pulled a bubble down there!"

When the basket was pulled up, everyone was dumbfounded.

In the basket, there was a dried corpse, and the leader of the swordsmen who had fallen before had a withered face, his hair was thin, and his whole body seemed to have been drained of blood, as if he had been dead for a long time.
