Chapter 144
Along the way, I just followed behind Qin Juepei.After the shocking moment just now, I dare not relax for a moment.Sticking to Qin Juepei's side, nervously looking at the dark night around him.

The faint moonlight can't completely dispel the darkness, but it makes our shadows very long.

We followed that path, the path was winding, and there was no end in sight, and everything we saw was darkness.My eyelids are still twitching.Although Qin Juepei said that it was caused by too much fatigue.However, my premonition will never disappear.

In the silent surroundings, only the sound of our dull footsteps echoed in the air.Because it was too open, the echo passed as if there was someone following us behind us, which scared me to look back from time to time.I always feel that there seems to be something waiting for us in the dark, and it will pounce on us at any time.

"Don't look back, Ake." Seeing that I was nervous, Qin Juepei reminded me intentionally.

"Huh?" I don't understand.

"There are two bright lights on a person's shoulders. With these lights, dead things will not dare to approach you. If you turn around so frequently, you will extinguish them." Qin Jue is serious.

He had a serious face, his tone was extremely serious, and he spoke in a precise manner. I was so frightened that I straightened my body immediately, and I focused on looking forward, and I didn't look back even if I was killed.

Seeing my stiff body, Qin Juepei couldn't hold back his face and smiled.

When I heard him laugh, I immediately realized that I had been fooled.

This guy is still joking around.

However, after he made a fuss like this, the fear in my heart decreased a lot, and I was no longer so worried. I glared at him and continued to follow him towards the well.

The mouth of the well was already in front of our eyes.

I poked my head over and took a look under the moonlight. There was no water under the well, and it was all dry and cracked soil. It must have been abandoned for a long time.

Qin Juepei kept staring down there without speaking.

"Ake, look, does this well look like it?" He paused, and then said, "Has it been dug?"

Have been dug up?

When Qin Juepei said this, I also stood by his side and watched along.

Fortunately, the moonlight is still relatively bright. According to Qin Juepei, I did find that the soil in the well was not right.It turned up layer by layer, and it really looked like it was turned over by someone.It's just that, a well that has dried up, why should we spare no effort to dig it?

Qin Juepei paused at this moment, groping for the bricks around the well.

I followed him with my eyes, and suddenly caught behind Qin Juepei——

Not far away, there is something.

It's hidden in the dark, some can't see clearly.

I bypassed Qin Juepei and walked over.

When I got closer, I realized that it was actually a toy.

I picked it up.

It's a very common kid's toy.

How could children's toys be here?

Was it thrown here while playing?

"A Ke." Qin Juepei had stood up over there and called me over.

I took what I had just picked up and handed it to him.

Qin Juepei looked at the toy, and frowned with his long and delicate eyebrows.

He held the toy and said to me: "There are heavy scratches on the bricks of this well, which should be caused by frequent friction. There are many footprints of people around."

He threw the toy aside casually, "You found this again, it can only explain one situation."

He didn't continue, I raised my head to meet Qin Juepei's deep eyes, and he was also looking at me.From the eyes of each other, we draw a conclusion.

Someone has gone down this well!

And still go down often!

Even the kind with many people!

"There's something under this well." Qin Juepei came to a further conclusion.

I stepped back and stood firm.Close your eyes and take a deep breath, then exhale slowly.

Sure enough, when I opened my eyes again.Under the clear moonlight, the well was gloomy and black.

I didn't look carefully at first, but when I saw it now, I was really shocked.

There is dead air down the well!

Thick dead air!
The black mist enveloped the entire wellhead like a large cloud.

Too much.

I couldn't help but shudder.

Qin Juepei sensed my abnormality and came over to hold me back. "Ake, what's wrong?"

"There is a very strong dead air in the well. There is a lot of it." I stabilized my mind, pointed at the well and said to Qin Juepei.

Qin Juepei frowned even tighter.

He circled the well a few times, then looked up at the night sky, as if he was thinking about something.I didn't dare to bother him, so I could only worry on the sidelines.

"A Ke, I think, I see." Qin Juepei thought for a while, then suddenly spoke.

"What?" I was at a loss.

"Have you noticed that the location of this well is the center of the whole village, and this location happens to be where the moonlight can shine directly in." Qin Juepei explained patiently.

"I know why I thought this village was a bit strange at first, because generally the wells in the village are dug outside the village, but in this village, a well was inexplicably dug in the middle. This in itself is very strange gone."

"You mean?" I went on to guess what he said.

"Yes, this well is just to hide people's eyes and ears. Its function is not to store water. It may be an entrance."

"It's more likely that the village's secret lies beneath it." Qin Juepei was determined and made a final decision.

According to the superficial gossip knowledge in my mind, I also vaguely thought that if the moonlight can directly shine on the direction of the universe, it is mostly for sealing or suppression.

There is indeed something weird down here.

"A Ke, stay here, don't act rashly." Qin Juepei said, he took out the rope from nowhere, and was about to wrap it around himself.

"Where did you get the rope?" A question mark popped up in my mind, I didn't see him holding the rope just now.

"It was taken out of the old man's hand just now." While speaking, Qin Juepei had already wrapped the rope tightly.

"You want to go down? You have already made up your mind to go down, haven't you?" I knew what he was going to do when I saw his posture.

"No! I don't know what's down there, it's too dangerous for you to go down so hastily!" I couldn't help but say, I stepped forward and grabbed him tightly.

Too dangerous.

"A Ke—" He let me tug and twist, but just patted my head. "Believe me, the only way to know the secrets of this village is to go down and have a look."

I still refuse to let go.

"I promise you, I will be fine." Qin Juepei reassured.

Pull my hand away and put the other end of the rope into my hand.

"Ake, you hold this rope. I'm at the other end of the rope. Don't worry. I'm just going down to have a look."

"Ake, don't be willful, now is not the time to talk about this, don't you want to save Ye Yuetian?"

Qin Juepei spoke solemnly and could not be refused,

"I..." I was thinking about how to refute his words, but he had already pulled my octopus-like hand away.

After a few steps to the well, I turned around and said to me: "You wait for me on the top, pull the rope every few minutes, and I will give you a response."

After speaking, he jumped down without looking back.

I stayed in the same place in a daze, still maintaining the posture of being torn apart by him.The rope changed from a loop that quickly followed his descent to a straight one.Then, no more.

Qin Juepei has already landed.

When I realized it, I was so angry that I jumped up and down, and couldn't help but want to yell.

I want to save Ye Yuetian, but the premise is that you must be safe.

this fool.

I regret it in my heart, why I always lose the chain at critical moments.Because of the distraction just now, he slapped himself on the head hard.And worried about Qin Juepei with apprehension.

I held the rope that was holding Qin Juepei in my hand, and walked to the edge of the well. The well looked shallow at first, but after Qin Juepei rubbed off the layer of soil on it, it suddenly became extremely deep, like a well. It was like a huge gloomy abyss, with its eerie mouth wide open, waiting to devour Qin Juepei's life at any moment.

I panicked for no reason, but there was nothing I could do.I could only hold the rope tightly, counting the time with great torment.Hoping there, there won't be any mess down there.

The time passed by every minute and every second, and the rope did not move.I was so anxious that I was sweating profusely, so I couldn't help pulling the rope, watching the tremor go down the rope, I don't know if Qin Juepei received it.

I broke out in a cold sweat from nervousness, and it was only when I was blown by the cold night wind that I felt a little cold, so I realized that I was breaking out in a cold sweat.

After an extremely long few seconds, the rope in his hand trembled slightly.Although it was a few small strokes, I felt it.

This shows that Qin Juepei is fine.

With a sigh of relief, the hanging heart was relieved a little.

Now that rope is a veritable lifeline.According to what Qin Juepei said, I pulled the rope every few minutes.Qin Juepei also used the rope below to pull it back.

A short rope holds the hearts of two people together.This is the only way to tell each other.You are all safe, don't worry.

Maybe, the bottom is just a hole, nothing dirty.

I so comfort myself.

Just after I thought about it, I pulled the rope as usual and waited patiently for Qin Juepei's reply.However, my heart stopped for a moment.

Because this time, it took a long time on the other side of the rope.

Not moving.

Maybe Qin Juepei didn't feel it, maybe my pull was too weak.

So, I pulled it a little further.

This time, he will definitely feel it.

I stared at the rope in my hand, almost staring at a hole in the rope, and waited bitterly.

After a few minutes, however, the rope remained motionless.It seems to have stopped.

After waiting for a few minutes, there was still no movement.

boom--

My brain exploded!
Hit the ground running!
Qin Jupei!
Regardless of other things, I took a step forward and yelled at the mouth of the well: "Qin Juepei! Qin Juepei! Can you hear me?! Qin Juepei!"

Roaring heart-piercingly, the hoarse voice reached the well, as if it had been absorbed.

There was no sound in the well, only the rustling leaves around me and the slight echo after I finished shouting, nothing could be heard.

"Qin Jupei..."
