Chapter 244: Bottom of the Well
Chapter 244: Bottom of the Well

Once Bai Yanliang makes up his mind, he will not hesitate.

After saying hello to Yu Wenxuan and Jiang Li, he stepped onto the edge of the well and pulled the hemp rope to make sure it was tied tightly enough.

The other end of the hemp rope was given to Yu Wenxuan and Jiang Li, and he didn't need to worry about anything else.

Bai Yanliang lowered his head and glanced down, feeling a bone-chilling chill rushing towards him.

If possible, no one would want to go down to such a horrible place.

But Bai Yanliang had a reason to go down, because... he saw in the death scene just now that the strange baby had a... key on his wrist.

A blood-red key.

Although the color was different, Bai Yanliang recognized it at a glance because of its simple shape.

That is definitely the key to "Mist Set"!

why?
Could it be that the baby was also a member of a strange space like "Fog Collection"?

Or did it, as a ghost, once kill a member of the Mist Group who possessed the key?

and many more……

Bai Yanliang suddenly thought of something extremely important!
He grabbed the rope and sat on the edge of the well, with his legs dangling empty in the well.

But at this moment, Bai Yanliang's brain was working fast.

If he remembered correctly... when this mission first appeared, Wu Ji had not yet begun to undergo strange changes.

That was also his first time entering Wu Ji, and his first mission... was at Ruyi Hotel in the misty space, thirteen years ago.

During the same period of time, there were two other groups of members performing other tasks.

Among them, the group that Wei Xiu was in was responsible for carrying out this task.

These three sets of tasks appeared at the same time, so the first task of "hiding from the moon in the mountains and fishing out the coffin from the bottom of the water" should also be between the years. Combined with that work notebook... Bai Yanliang came to an extremely bold conclusion.

Twelve years ago, a plague broke out in Zhongyuan Village. Could it be that this was the time when Wei Xiu and his team returned when they first carried out this mission?
If that’s really the case...why didn’t Wei Xiu and the others appear in that yellowed booklet?
Or... Wu Ji's past world is just a copy of events that have already happened.

No matter what they did, they could not influence or change the future.

But in that case...how do we explain that blood-red key?
It should only condense in a space like "Fog Collection".

Bai Yanliang believed more in his second inference, which was... Wei Xiu and his team went to the time when the plague broke out twelve years ago. That was the first time the strange phenomenon appeared, and the terror of that time directly wiped out everyone in Wei Xiu's group.

Combined with the re-enactment of the death scene he had just seen… the ancient well was still in use at the time, and the crowd watching included both young and old, which was obviously before the outbreak of the plague.

So…the strange disease started to appear after that weird baby fell into the well.

However, in the death scene that Bai Yanliang saw, the key was already on the baby's wrist. If the key was really the private property of someone in Wei Xiu's group, it would mean that... they were collectively killed before the outbreak of the plague.

In other words... that strange baby already existed in some form before it was born, and... it was so terrifying that it could kill everyone in Wei Xiu's group, possibly even including a key holder whose identity was hidden...

If this is really the case...

Doesn't that mean that the tasks Wu Ji issued in the past world can actually affect the real world?
This is simply unbelievable...

But... no matter what, Bai Yanliang must get that blood-red key.

He has already learned how to use the key from Xu Zhifei, and now he just needs one to practice with.

Moreover, Bai Yanliang was already a little annoyed by just being beaten without fighting back. He felt that he needed to give something back to Anyuan.

Although I thought a lot in my mind, only two or three seconds passed in the real world.

In Jiang Li and Yu Wenxuan's opinion, Bai Yanliang just sat by the well to adjust his state. The fact seemed to be just as they thought. When they looked again, Bai Yanliang had already grasped the hemp rope with both hands alternately and began to descend to the bottom of the well.

There is no water in this well anymore, Bai Yanliang has confirmed this.

However, the moment his entire body sank vertically into the well, Bai Yanliang's hair suddenly stood up.

Cold, gloomy, rotten, bloody...all kinds of strong negative auras came from all directions, penetrating every pore and causing Bai Yanliang's brain to go blank for nearly a second.

When he came to his senses again, Bai Yanliang discovered that he had actually fallen to the bottom of the well.

It's really scary...

Bai Yanliang sighed silently in his heart.

The ground beneath my feet was soft, rotten earth, and the surroundings were strangely dark, as if the sunlight could not penetrate at all.

Bai Yanliang stood against the side of the well wall and looked around.

The bottom of the well was much larger than he had imagined.

My heart started beating faster involuntarily.

Although Bai Yanliang did not feel fear.

But there seemed to be some strange magnetic field at the bottom of the well, which was violently affecting him.

On the ground, Yu Wenxuan and Jiang Li tied the other end of the hemp rope to a dead tree, and the two watched the movement of the hemp rope closely.

As long as it shakes left and right three times in a row, Bai Yanliang will be pulled up immediately.

At this moment, Jiang Li suddenly shivered.

"It seems to be getting colder..."

Jiang Li's voice was very neutral, so when Yu Wenxuan heard her say she was cold, he didn't have any thoughts of taking care of the girl.

But gradually, Yu Wenxuan discovered that something seemed to be wrong with Jiang Li.

Her hair, eyebrows, and even eyelashes began to frost, and her face and lips were frozen blue.

She can't move!
"Hey."

Yu Wenxuan's expression changed slightly, and he patted Jiang Li's arm, which was cold and hard!

Was it done by a ghost?
Yu Wenxuan immediately looked towards the wellhead, even though he had promised Bai Yanliang that he would pull him up.

But if any strange noise came from the well, Yu Wenxuan would throw all the hemp ropes into the well without hesitation, so that the thing would never come out.

However, there was no sound from the well, not even the hemp rope moved.

If there wasn’t something strange happening in the well, then what happened to Jiang Li?
Yu Wenxuan looked around coldly, quickly searching for every unusual place.

Unfortunately, he found nothing.

Everything around was normal, why was Jiang Li suddenly frozen like this?
Yu Wenxuan stared at Jiang Li. She was so cold that she couldn't speak, and even moving her eyeballs was a luxury.

But Yu Wenxuan could feel the despair in Jiang Li's eyes when he looked at him.

What exactly is going on?

Yu Wenxuan accidentally glanced at Jiang Li's feet. He was suddenly stunned and his face changed immediately.

"So that's how it is, damn it."
