Chapter 385 The Opened Grave

There is a well, which is dirty and smelly. There is a well, which is black and deep.

There was a man who sighed.

Although Xie Zhi was also in the Six Gate, he was different from Liu Shawang Tong.

Liu Shawang Tong dressed well, but he looked like an ordinary person and had a normal job, such as working as a job.

Xie Zhi is different. Xie Zhi is a young master at first glance. He is sometimes more particular about his clothes than Xia Yue.

After that piece of clothing went down the well, it would definitely be useless, and he would not want it even if he washed it out.

Fortunately, Xie Zhi was prepared this time, so he took the torch and tied a rope, and Xia Yue slowly put him down.

If it is a normal wall and eaves, Xie Zhi can easily go up and down, but the stones on the well wall are too slippery and have nowhere to focus on them. He has only two choices.

Or, just jump in just a little more casually. It is said that the water inside is not deep, and even if it is a little deep, it is not a big problem. Xie Zhi will have water.

Or, be more secure and let Xie Zhi slowly put down with a rope, it will be a bit ugly.

Xie Zhi was confused for a while, but he still chose to be safe.

What kind of care is the one who is about to enter the stinky well?

Xia Yue slowly put the rope down, and soon Xie Zhi disappeared into the darkness.

Then he exclaimed.

Ye Caitang hurriedly said, "What's wrong?"

"There are no red algae you mentioned on the well wall." Xie Zhi held the torch and looked at the wall carefully: "But some of them seemed to be dry, and I don't know if they were dried by yesterday's fire."

He shaved some with a dagger, raised his hand and threw it out, almost throwing it on Ye Caitang's face.

Ye Caitang was leaning into the well when suddenly a black thing rushed over. Fortunately, Xia Yue pulled her, otherwise the dry moss would have spread on her face, and she didn't know whether it was poisonous or not.

Ye Caitang was very depressed: "Brother Xie, you can throw something, or you will hit someone."

Xie Zhi had no idea what he had thrown away, but his advantage was that he listened to advice.

Another piece of thing scraped off the well wall was thrown up with a whoosh.

Xie Zhi said: "Zhi."

"..." Ye Caitang took his head back from the wellhead. She couldn't afford to play the world of people who know martial arts.

Fortunately, Xie Zhi threw away two pieces and stopped throwing them away. I think the others are almost the same, so there is no need to throw them away again.

Xia Yue pulled him up.

As soon as I pulled it to the wellhead, I heard a very slight sound and pounced.

"Oh..." Xie Zhi said hurriedly.

What's wrong with this?

Xia Yue pulled Xie Zhi up.

Xie Zhi touched his waist, then frowned and said, "The jade pendant hanging on his waist fell off."

The rope that hung the jade pendant broke at some point, and Xie Zhi didn't notice it either.

The jade pendant Ye Caitang was impressed by it. A piece of white mutton fat without any flaws looks particularly expensive. A young man like Xie Pingsheng would not wear bargains.

Although the water is not deep, it is dirty and greasy. Xie Zhi just tried hard to hang on the water surface and did not dirty himself. Now he is thinking about his jade pendant and is very depressed.

The jade pendant must be taken out, and if it is taken out, it must be taken out, but he really doesn't want to get into the water.

But there is no one here that he can command.

After a while, Xie Zhi said, "You said, if I pay ten taels of silver and ask Chu Shijing to find someone to help me get it, will he agree?"

Ten taels of silver?

Ye Caitang was moved. She wanted to say that I could do it, but she was embarrassed.

In fact, she was embarrassed, but she was embarrassed because she was afraid that Xia Yue and the others would be embarrassed.

Fortunately, the people in Chu Shijing really did not have money.

Most of the time in the army, we can eat and wear a lot. If we have to talk about money, we will not have much money unless we make contributions and get rewards.

Chu Shijing agreed happily.

He picked two of his subordinates who were said to be good in water and asked them to help Xie Zhi pick up jade pendants.

Two people share ten taels of silver.

Both of them were very happy, but the others were actually a little envious, but they didn't say anything.

Because the two selected by Chu Shijing is secondly water-like. What kind of water-like water-like water-like water-like water-like water-like water-like water-like water-like water-like water-like water-like water-like water-like water-like water-like water-like water-like water-like water-like water-like water-like water-like water-like water-like water-like water-like water-like water-like water-like water-like water-like water-like water-like water-like water-like water

The two of them tied ropes and went down.

Xie Zhi said: "Be careful of snakes. There may be some spider-water snakes in such wells."

"It's okay, we can definitely pick up the jade pendant for Mr. Xie."

It was not cold in the summer. The two of them happily took off their clothes outside, shirtless, and just wore pants.

Ye Caitang watched from the side, his expression was very complicated.

Xia Yue thought she couldn't bear it and whispered: "Although it's a little hard work, five taels of silver per person is enough for ordinary families to work hard for two years, and it's very happy for them."

Ye Caitang glanced at Xia Yue and said seriously: "I know that ten taels of silver are my salary for five months and one hundred and fifty days. I am willing to make some money for a while, and I am very happy."

“…”

How can Xia Yue, a person who has never short of money, understand this feeling?

The two of them quickly fished up in the well. As they were fishing, someone suddenly said, "I found it, found it."

He lifted something from the water, and it was the jade pendant that Xie Zhi had just fallen into.

There was a thick layer of mud at the bottom of the well, which fell into the water, and the jade pendant was not broken at all.

Xie Zhi was very happy and asked the two of them to come up quickly.

But the other person was still bent down and touching the water, as if touching the wall.

Everyone became surprised.

"Sun Jin." Chu Shijing asked him: "What's going on?"

The man named Sun Jin touched him and said, "General, I feel that there is something wrong with this stone."

Everyone surrounded him.

Chu Shijing hurriedly said, "What's the problem?"

Sun Jin said: "I just touched the stone beside me and felt like... had moved a little."

As soon as they said this, everyone was moved.

Chu Shijing searched the house several times many years ago, hoping to dig the whole house three feet away, but he really didn't dare to say that the stones in the well were touched one by one.

Now it seems that the problem may be this overlooked place.

Chu Shijing said: "Drain the well water."

In this era, there was no water pump, so it was more troublesome to drain a water source. Fortunately, there was not much water in this well, and Chu Shijing had a group of capable subordinates.

Soon, everyone started working hard.

Yesterday's fire and today's water are really a good day in dire straits.

Buckets of water were carried up from below, and the water level in the well soon dropped.

The water level in the well is usually determined by groundwater.

Some wells are located close to the water source and the water level is relatively high. Some wells, such as the one at the moment, are almost drying up and the water level is very shallow. After the wells are cleared, it will take at least ten hours to recover.
