The well is about seven or eight feet deep, and you can see the bottom at a glance. The walls of the well are covered with vines.
Yan Yan jumped down without holding on to the vine.
Compared with the yard above, the underground well is extremely clean, as if someone comes to clean it frequently.
There is a hole at the bottom of the well, and from the hole is a cellar. As the children said, the whole cellar is indeed high on one side and low on the other.
The higher section is connected to the entrance of the cave.
There was no light underneath, and only the outline of the cellar could be vaguely seen.
Like a coffin.
But she still didn't hear the so-called shouting.
He found the fire seal that he had received from Qingxuan, and as soon as he lit it, the scene in front of him made Yan Yan's scalp numb.
Old faces appear on the wall, either laughing or crying.
Under the illumination of the swaying Huozhezi, the faces of the old men on the wall seemed to be moving, one by one baring their teeth and waving their claws towards Yan Yan.
And when she looked at the faces of these old people, shouts suddenly appeared in her ears.
——The faces of these old people are screaming.
The sharp and elongated voice was strangely strange.
The familiar pungent smell made Yan Yan calm down.
This taste is not exactly what comes from Yinnan Teng Liquor.
Yan Yan suddenly realized that the old man's face on the wall looked more and more fake.
Frowning, he opened the old man's face, and sure enough, there were black stems with dark purple meridians underneath.
"It turns out that Yin Nanteng is here."
Yan Yu climbed out of the dry well and sat on the wall, dangling his feet in the well.
After sending the signal to Qingxuan, he sat and waited for him in boredom.
After returning to the underworld, should I still ask Xiao Baizhu about Dabai?
Whenever Yan Yanren was bored, Dabai and Xiaobai would appear in his mind, and he would start to lose his mind at this thought.
"grown ups!"
Suddenly hearing Qingxuan's shout, Yan Yan was about to turn around and look, when suddenly there was a push from behind.
When Qingxuan appeared in front of her, both of them were already standing at the bottom of the well.
The light above their heads disappeared little by little, and Yan Yan and Qing Xuan looked at a stone slab covering the mouth of the well.
"Who pushed me?"
Qingxuan pursed his lips and named someone whom Yan Yan had already noticed.
It was that person who could make Yan Yan relax his vigilance.
"Melon skin."
Yan Yan looked up and asked, "I can't move this stone slab."
"It's either his grandfather, his parents, or other people in the village." Qingxuan said, "Ever since we appeared in Xinghua Village, we have been targeted."
"It seems those kids also deceived me." Yan Yan remembered what the kid with braids had said to her at the end, and for a moment she still couldn't dislike those kids.
Qingxuan entered the cellar and said, "It is indeed Yinnan Vine." He said and began to look for the roots of Yinnan Vine.
"People in this village really like to throw people into wells and cover them with stone slabs." Yan Yan said, walking to the shortest wall of the cellar.
He stretched out his hand and grabbed something half a person's height. The roots of the Yinnan Vine were all rooted in this thing.
"Is this a...child?"
The meridians on the Yinnan Vine stems are intertwined with the meridians on the child's body, and the child's original flesh-colored appearance has turned into black like the stems.
"Big Fatty." Yan Yan said, "Children in the village said that this well would eat children. It once ate a child named Big Fatty."
Qingxuan pressed a few times on the child's body, and pressed hard on the stomach until it was broken.
His hands were stirring in the belly of the corpse, looking for something. Following the Yinnanvine veins that had become meridians, he touched something about the size of a soybean with spikes.
"The seeds of Yinnan Vine." Qingxuan showed the seeds to Yan Yan, "This one seed can grow more than ten acres of Yinnan Vine."
Yan Yan looked at the uncovered wall and saw that only the tendrils of the Yinnan Vine were adsorbed on the wall, and the real roots grew from the corpse.
"The entire cellar's Yinnanvine relies on this child's corpse for nourishment?"
"Yinnan Vine can survive on Yin Qi, but it just happens to be a place where this seed can be nourished."
Since it was easy to feed, Qingxuan just broke off a few sections of vines and placed them as potted plants in Yan Yu's yard.
For example, a potted plant like this that is not in your own yard 90% of the time in the underworld and is not easy to maintain would have died long ago.
After taking the seeds, Qingxuan looked at the Yinnan vines in the cellar and said, "These Yinnan vines without seeds will not wither. There will only be harm if they are left in the world. Why don't you burn them with fire?"
"Why do you want me to burn it? Even if the fire on earth doesn't burn you to death, don't you still have the fire certificates you brought from the underworld?"
"The Yinnan Vine that has just been separated from the seeds will still grow, and its self-healing ability is amazing. I used a fire to burn one side of the tree, and it will grow again on the other side."
Yan Yan set fire, and a sea of fire erupted as soon as he took action.
The leaves of Yinnan Vine curled up in the fire, like old people's faces shouting and hissing in the sea of fire.
-
Guapi followed behind his parents, lowered his head, pushed Yan Yan down the dry well and said nothing again.
"If they don't eat the food from the bottom of the well, they will starve to death." Grandpa Guapi said, "You don't have to be afraid. That's how I threw your mother into the old man's well."
When Guapi's father heard this, he was as virtuous as Guapi, even though he had done bad things, he still pretended to be guilty.
"After finishing the master's affairs, we will move back to Heishui County." Grandpa Guapi looked at the house that was barely sheltered from the wind and rain, "This house is really not a place for people to live."
Seeing Guapi's head hanging down, Guapini's mother pushed him into the house and said, "Play by yourself for a while. We will set off back to Heishui County in a while."
Guapi lowered his head and walked into the house. Suddenly a shadow appeared in front of him. When he looked up, he couldn't even scream.
Yan Yan and Qing Xuan stood in front of him, with a human-shaped thing at their feet.
His whole body was black, his belly was rotten, and from the melon rind, he could see the burnt black intestines inside.
"Sister." Guapi called softly.
"Alas." Yan Yan smiled.
Guapiniang shouted outside the house for a long time but there was no answer from Guapi, so she wiped the water on her hands and came inside.
Yan Yan and Guapi were sitting on the bench, in front of them was a black corpse of a child.
Guapi didn't dare to move, hugging his knees and staring at the corpse in front of him.
He didn't dare to look, so he could only stare at a piece of intestine in the belly of the corpse, trying to hint in his mind that it was just a piece of coal.
Guapi's mother yelled, and Guapi's father quickly walked into the house, leaving only Guapi's grandfather walking past step by step with a cane.
Before I even entered the house, I heard Dad Guapi shout, "Yan, Miss Yan."
Grandpa Guapi was startled and ignored the pain in his legs and feet when he walked. As soon as he entered the room, he looked at Qingxuan.
"This, how is this possible?"
"Why is it impossible?" Yan Yan looked at them, "It is quite easy to escape from the well. Do you think all the people who were imprisoned in the well by you before have also escaped?"
"Then, are you seeking revenge?" Yan Yan touched Guapi's head.
The three people in front of me didn't even dare to move.
