Chapter 50 Wells

"Are you sure it's here?"

This was half an hour later, Li Mengyi looked at Lu Zhanyuan and asked, pointing to a well far away.

Lu Zhanyuan rolled his eyes and said angrily: "The whole Wanyan Honglie Mansion is only this well, what do you think?"

"But there is only one well that can be enough for so many people from Wanyan Honglie's mansion to use water?" Li Mengyi said in a strange way.

"The life of a rich man is not something you can imagine." Lu Zhanyuan shook his head helplessly, as if he was defeated by Li Mengyi's ignorance. "As a great member, how could Wanyan Honglie's family use the water from their own well? All the water used in their mansion was transported back from outside. This well was just used as decoration, and there was no water inside, otherwise how could Mei Chaofeng stay inside?"

"That's true." Li Mengyi nodded suddenly and then laughed, "But Bao Xiruo really doesn't live in the big house of Wanyan Honglie's mansion, just like the novel, and built a dilapidated cottage in the mansion."

"Hey!" Lu Zhanyuan looked at Li Mengyi like this and suddenly fainted, "I said why can't I find you everywhere just now? It turns out that you were running around? My aunt, can we do the serious business first?"

"I know, I know!" Li Mengyi waved her hand impatiently, "I just want to see what Bao Xiruo looks like, how could a prince be so obsessed with him."

"Oh, how do she look?" Lu Zhanyuan became interested when he heard Li Mengyi say this and asked with some gossip.

"It's okay, although I'm pretty, I'm not as beautiful as me." Li Mengyi said, "Probably, maybe... maybe."

Seeing Li Mengyi unnaturally turning her head away, Lu Zhanyuan knew what was going on and couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Li Mengyi looked at Lu Zhanyuan angrily, wishing she could throw this bastard directly from the well. "Laughing, laughing, laugh!" After cursing, Li Mengyi seemed to suddenly think of something, "Wait, what do you care so much about Bao Xiruo's appearance mean? Could it be..." Her one was very long, and her big eyes looked at Lu Zhanyuan with no intention of being malicious.

Lu Zhanyuan suddenly felt a chill in his neck, and he couldn't help but have a cold war. Looking at Li Mengyi's unkind eyes, he suddenly screamed that something was wrong and waved his hand quickly, "I swear, it's just a normal gossip! Don't think about it."

"Really?" Li Mengyi's sarcastic voice made Lu Zhanyuan shudder.

He hurriedly called and said, "Let's go to the well first, remember to cover up the footsteps, I think the blind man who is blind, must be amazing. We can't alarm the snake."

He glared at Lu Zhanyuan fiercely, Li Mengyi was like a winning rooster, raised her head and entered the courtyard and slowly walked towards the well.

Under Lu Zhanyuan and Li Mengyi's deliberate control, the footsteps of both of them were suppressed to the lowest point, much smaller than the surrounding wind and the cries of insects and birds. Although Mei Chaofeng's ears were amazing, it was impossible for him to hear the voices of the two without any precautions.

Of course, until now, the two of them still don’t know if there is Mei Chaofeng in the well.

Carefully beside the well, Lu Zhanyuan watched from the well.

It was dark inside, and I couldn't see anything clearly or hear any sound.

Lu Zhanyuan couldn't help but look at Li Mengyi. As the descendant of the Tomb Sect, Li Mengyi looked at such dark places, which were much clearer than Lu Zhanyuan.

But Li Mengyi looked at her head for a long time, and shook her head in a discouragement, saying that she could not see it either.

Lu Zhanyuan didn't have much hope at all. The well was so small that there were not many scenes inside. It seemed that he still needed to go in and see what was going on.

Fortunately, I was prepared when I came this time.

Lu Zhanyuan untied a rope that had been prepared before from his waist, gently tied it to the wooden stake on the well to lift water, and nodded at Li Mengyi.

Li Mengyi didn't waste her expression, so she jumped up and gently flew her right foot on the stone platform of the well, and then she sank into the well.

During the fall, Li Mengyi wrapped her hand in a white cloth and grabbed the rope. The cloth made a slight sound, but the sound was extremely low. Even Li Mengyi herself could not hear it clearly, let alone Mei Chaofeng, which might exist in the well. This is also the benefit of the ancient tomb school's light skills. This silent skill was impossible for Lu Zhanyuan.

After letting go, Li Mengyi slowly slid down the rope.

Lu Zhanyuan lay beside the well, watching Li Mengyi's figure in black slowly disappear into the darkness, and couldn't help but secretly smack her tongue, "This well is really deep, Guo Jing is awesome, and it's nothing to fall down at such a high place."

After a while, no sound was heard inside, but Lu Zhanyuan was waiting aside and became impatient.

What's going on? What's going on inside? Could it be that Mei Chaofeng has discovered Li Mengyi? Or...

Lu Zhanyuan, who was thinking about it, wanted to scream, but after thinking about it, he didn't dare to speak. If Mei Chaofeng didn't notice Li Mengyi, he would be exposed after shouting like this.

In this extremely nervous mood, Lu Zhanyuan finally heard the sound coming from inside.

"Lu Zhanyuan! You come down!"

Lu Zhanyuan suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, feeling a little excited and a little disappointed.

I was excited because I felt relieved when I heard Li Mengyi's voice, but I was disappointed because since Li Mengyi spoke, there should be no one inside. In this way, Lu Zhanyuan's guess may be wrong. Mei Chaofeng may still be practicing the Nine Yin White Bone Claws in a corner of the desert.

Although he felt everything in his heart, Lu Zhanyuan's movements did not slow down. He jumped into the well and grabbed the rope with one hand. He didn't have to be as careful as Li Mengyi had before, and just slid down from above carelessly.

"The sound is too loud!" Lu Zhanyuan just came down and heard Li Mengyi's complaint, "There is a lot of space inside this well. When the sounds outside come in, there will be echoes, so if there is any sound outside, it will be amplified a lot."

Lu Zhanyuan looked around, but was shocked to find that he could not see anything clearly. Fortunately, he was prepared and took out a fire note and candle from his arms and lit the candle. The surrounding scene suddenly entered Lu Zhanyuan's eyes.

"It's really big here." Lu Zhanyuan looked around and said in surprise.

Indeed, although it is a mouth water well, the space here is more than 100 square meters.

"Lu Zhanyuan..." Just as Lu Zhanyuan was observing the surroundings, a gloomy voice suddenly sounded behind him. At the same time, an extremely cold hand suddenly rested on Lu Zhanyuan's shoulder.
