"Have you ever seen this little girl who can sing nursery rhymes before?" Gu Nian asked Guo Xin.
"I've never seen it before. This is the first time she appears." Guo Xin said: "Maybe your behavior of checking those skulls burning with will-o'-the-wisps triggered a new plot, and that little girl appeared."
Gu Nian nodded.
For safety reasons, no one went out to explore the secrets of the well in this dark night.
Maybe it was really because Gu Nian's previous behavior triggered a new plot, but nothing dangerous happened here until daybreak.
Only the childish nursery rhymes of the little girl, accompanied by the sound of the wind passing through the branches of the old locust tree with all its leaves, whimpered all night long.
But the monster with a pair of sharp claws who was said to crawl out from the bottom of the well and liked to kill people and dig out their hearts did not appear.
Early the next morning, after everyone had breakfast, they went to the place where the well was.
The well is located due north of the village.
Perhaps because of its age, the well ropes, nooses and other items on it have decayed.
Li Shan pulled a section of rope that was relatively intact and tried pulling it hard a few times, but the rope broke into two pieces.
"It seems we need to use the rope we brought ourselves, so that we can be safer."
As Gu Nian spoke, he took out the rope from the space, fixed one end of the rope with a steel nail in the stone crack outside the well platform, and continued:
"We'll go down to see what's going on, but we'll have to leave some people up there to help."
After some discussion, Gu Nian, Lin Chen and Guo Xin were ready to go down the well to find out.
Leng Shan, Zheng Xixi and Li Shan were responsible for supporting the outside.
After determining the grouping of personnel, everyone discussed the method of contact.
If you wave the flashlight upward three times, the people above will stop and stop letting go of the rope when they see it. The second time you wave the flashlight upward is to let everyone pull up.
In order to prevent accidents, Gu Nian also took out the whistle in the space.
If you can't see the light of the flashlight, you can use a whistle to communicate.
This time, Gu Nian, who was light-bodied, took the lead and went down to the well to check the situation.
Wearing a mask and gloves, she stretched out her hand to test the strength of the rope, nodded to the others, and everyone began to put the rope down.
Following the movements of everyone on the well, Gu Nian sank little by little.
As she entered the well bit by bit, she only felt that dark and depressing feeling, like a tide, rushing toward her from all directions.
It was clearly daytime at this moment, and the temperature was at least ten degrees higher than at night.
However, being in this well makes people feel a coldness that goes deep into their bones.
Gu Nian stretched out his gloved hand and tried to touch the well wall. He found that the humidity inside the well was very high and it was very smooth.
Without a rope, it would be impossible to climb up from the well relying on human strength.
Gu Nian descended a distance of fifteen or six meters, but still did not reach the bottom of the well. He could only see that in the well in this abandoned village, there was still well water reflecting the light of the flashlight, reflecting the deserted and deserted scene.
A piece of white flowers.
"Ah sneeze!"
Gu Nian felt a cold wind blowing from behind her, making her shiver involuntarily and sneeze.
