Chapter 243 Ancient Well
Chapter 243 Ancient Well

After leaving the village chief's house, Bai Yanliang's weird feeling in his heart disappeared.

He kept this strange feeling in his mind, there must be something he hadn't discovered...

"Let's go faster."

Being stared at by the elderly people in the surrounding houses, Jiang Li got goose bumps all over her body. She couldn't wait to leave the center of the village and walk to the back of the village.

The three of them followed her memory and soon arrived at the back of the village.

"It should be... right here." Jiang Li stopped and pointed outside, "Lu Guo and I were standing on that small hill at the time."

Bai Yanliang looked in the direction Jiang Li pointed and it was more like a small dirt slope than a small hill, but it was indeed of a certain height and could overlook the area.

However, this area...

The three of them looked around.

This is almost the end of the village. The houses around here are not densely packed, and there are more empty houses that no one lives in than those at the entrance of the village.

This piece of land is also very empty. If there is anything there, it is only the well not far away.

The three of them looked towards the well at the same time.

The edge of the well is not very high and is made of colorful stones. The stones do not seem to have been polished by stonemasons and have many uneven places, but the sharp edges have been polished away. It is obvious that this well has been used for many years.

However, at this moment, there were weeds growing around the wellhead, and there did not seem to be any signs of having been used.

This is an ancient well that was used for many years but has been abandoned in recent years.

Although the wellhead was not sealed, the buckets and hemp ropes placed on it were covered with spider webs.

Ancient well...

This image is often used in some very strange places.

So when the three of them saw the well, their nerves immediately tensed up.

"Want to...go over and take a look?"

Jiang Li licked his lips which had become dry due to nervousness and asked in a low voice.

Bai Yanliang nodded. It had come to this point and there was no reason to retreat.

He concentrated his attention and slowly approached the ancient well.

Bai Yanliang walked very slowly, taking each step first with a soft touch and then with a solid one, so that he could react as quickly as possible when a situation arose.

Jiang Li and Yu Wenxuan also followed Bai Yanliang, and the atmosphere around them seemed to become much more tense.

As the cold air got closer and closer to the ancient well, it gradually stuck to the skin of the three people.

This chill suddenly reached its peak when it was only two meters away from the wellhead!
Bai Yanliang, who was slightly ahead of Yu Wenxuan and Jiang Li by half a body length, felt the change first.

The terrible chill invaded his skin, flesh, and bone marrow...

His eyes quickly went dark and the scene in front of him changed immediately!
Ancient village...

Every household has a white mourning dress hanging at the door...

Suddenly... a strange wind blew by, and the corners of the white mourning clothes hanging at the door of each house were stained with a touch of red...

The wind was getting stronger and stronger, the mourning clothes were fluttering wildly in the wind, and the strange red color was spreading rapidly as if mad, until... the white turned into blood red, and the mourning clothes turned into shrouds.

At this time, a baby's cry was heard.

Something… was born.

Bai Yanliang "saw" a tiny, twisted arm stretching out from the blood-red swaddling clothes.

There were dense crowds of villagers surrounding him, and Bai Yanliang seemed to be one of them at this moment.

He looked towards the newborn baby wrapped in red swaddling clothes, and soon... he saw its face...

Rather than calling it a baby, it’s better to say... it’s a deformed monster.

Its body is as red and tender as a newborn baby, but its head is covered with many faces...

Densely packed faces!

Although these faces are small and only have outlines, one can already see the twisted, painful, and desperate expressions on each face...

Soon, this deformed and horrible monster was pushed away by the noisy crowd.

The person holding it seemed very reluctant, but more and more people came to fight for it. One hand...

Two hands...

Three hands...

Countless hands reached out to the blood-red swaddling clothes.

Then, someone's hand slipped, and the blood-red swaddling clothes fell into the well with a "plop" sound.

The scene stopped abruptly.

Bai Yanliang suddenly stretched out his hand to stop Jiang Li and Yu Wenxuan from moving forward.

"The death scene reappears, don't get close."

Bai Yanliang said calmly.

Jiang Li and Yu Wenxuan felt a tightness in their hearts. Bai Yanliang's body stiffened just now. It turned out... did he see a strange death scene?

call……

Bai Yanliang let out a breath. The scene he just saw was so depressing that it made him breathless.

Judging from the positions of Jiang Li and Yu Wenxuan, the time he experienced was probably less than one second in reality.

Bai Yanliang stood by the ancient well for a long time without moving.

"I want to go down."

After a long moment, he spoke.

Go down, where to go...

Jiang Li's eyes widened, and he immediately rejected it, "No! Absolutely not! A similar situation happened in Wu Ji before, and a senior went down into the well and never came up again..."

She looked at Bai Yanliang anxiously: "Mr. Bai, I know you are very powerful, but you are just flesh and blood after all. We...can't make any wrong steps."

Bai Yanliang knew that Jiang Li was doing this for his own good, but now... the most critical moment had arrived.

He looked at the wellhead quietly and said, "Hiding from the moon in the mountains, fishing for coffins in the water. Before entering the village, our bodies floated down from upstream. Guided by our fixed mindset, we easily came to the conclusion that there were bodies at the bottom of the river and we had to fish for them in the river."

Jiang Li nodded subconsciously. Although she didn't say it, she did guess so. The river at the entrance of the village was too strange... Jie Yu also suggested that the coffin was fished out from the bottom of the water, so it was not unreasonable to draw this conclusion.

"But what I just saw was that there was also a coffin in this well."

Bai Yanliang's voice was very calm, as if he was not the one who suggested going down the well.

"A blood-red swaddling cloth, which was both a birth bed and a coffin after death, a young body was buried in the water."

At this point, the two of them understood.

Since it has been confirmed that there is a body in the well, we will have to go in and check it sooner or later.

If the body is successfully salvaged, then this mission...maybe it can be completed immediately.

On the other side, Bai Yanliang had already taken the hemp rope from the wellhead, tied one end around his waist, and threw the other end to Yu Wenxuan and the others.

"If it shakes three times in a row, pull me up immediately."

"Yeah." Yu Wenxuan didn't say anything teasing or sarcastic this time, he just simply said one word.

Jiang Li looked at Bai Yanliang worriedly, but at the same time she was very confused.

Is Bai Yanliang so kind?
Going down into the well was not his responsibility, so why should he take the initiative to do so?

Shouldn't this kind of thing be decided by everyone after discussion?

She couldn't come to a conclusion and could only attribute everything to the fact that Bai Yanliang was indeed a good person.

At this time, Bai Yanliang was already standing by the well, sticking his head out and looking down.

A chilly breath rushed towards him, stimulating every pore of Bai Yanliang's body.

There must be something very...very scary under this well, but Bai Yanliang has his reasons for having to go down.

He took a rare deep breath and looked back at the two of them.

"gone."

　The backstage crashed again. It has been a long time since the post was uploaded...
