Chapter 73

Anzi took Gao Yue to the outer courtyard. The streams on the back mountain of the inner courtyard gathered into a pool in the courtyard. There was originally water here, but Anzi took Gao Yue out and looked far away.

The two passed by the inner courtyard gate and saw Zhuzi standing in front of the inner courtyard gate. Without An Zi's instructions, she dared not move. She could only wait in front of the gate and wait here.

"Wait here, we will come back soon." Anzi said, leaving quickly.

It is very remote here. There is a well in a corner of the outer courtyard. This well is not used very much because there is flowing stream water in the mountains, so it is more convenient to get water than to draw water from the well.

This well is usually used only in summer to soak fruits and vegetables in cold water, or in dry seasons in winter, when it is rainy, it is not convenient to go to the stream to get water.

The well is very large and wide. The roof is covered with a roof that blocks rain. There are several bamboo railings on all sides. The railings are very simple and not high, but they are enough for protection. A wooden barrel is placed beside the well and a long rope is tied to the handle.

All this was very novel in Gao Yue's eyes. He had never approached the well. For his safety, the maids in the palace would never let him approach the well, so he had never seen the situation inside the well with his own eyes.

"Is this the well?" He was always wondering why the well surrounded by round stones could always be kept in water and was inexhaustible. I really wanted to know what was there?

"Look, pick up the wooden barrel, turn the bottom of the barrel upwards and the mouth of the barrel downwards, and then let the barrel fall into the well, remember to hold the rope with your hands." Anzi said while demonstrating. The bucket fell into the water with a "thump". She shook the rope left and right, filling the barrel with water, and then pulling it up one by one.

"It's very simple, that's it. Lord Zong, please give it a try." An Zi poured out the water and handed the wooden barrel to Gao Yue.

It seemed not difficult. Gao Yue took the bucket and walked to the well and looked downward. It was so deep, it was so dark inside, and only the reflection of the ripples of water flashed. Gao Yue suddenly felt very scared in his heart. Are he afraid of the unfathomable depth? Or was he afraid of the endless darkness?

The well was not what he thought. He originally thought it was full of brightness and light like a stream.

His hands were trembling a little... trembling...

He didn't dare to look again, closed his eyes tightly, picked up the wooden barrel with both hands and threw it into the well, "Ah, forget to pull the rope." When Gao Yue remembered this and opened his eyes, he saw An Zi's feet on the rope, and she had already seen everything.

Gao Yue was actually afraid of the darkness in the well, and An Zi read his thoughts from Gao Yue's eyes.

"Sir Zong, the rope is going to be tightened." An Zi handed the rope to Gao Yue.

"Um……"

Shake the rope left and right, and the wooden barrel tilts as it shakes and sinks into the water. As long as it is lifted, there will be a full bucket of water. This is obviously not difficult, and the wooden barrel is trapped in the water, and the water has buoyancy and will not feel very heavy.

"It turns out that it's not very heavy." It was this idea that almost killed Gao Yue.

When he lifted the wooden barrel up, he underestimated the weight of the water. Just as the bucket left the water surface, there was no support from buoyancy. The bucket seemed to suddenly increase the gravity of a thousand kilograms. Gao Yue did not expect it to be so heavy.

This is like a tug of war game, the sudden weight can pull Gao Yue down from the well.

Gao Yue should let go immediately, but he remembered An Zi and said, "The rope must be tightened." As a result, he lost to the bucket in this pulling and pulling struggle.

The bucket fell, and the momentary pulling force dragged Gao Yue into the well quickly.

Gao Yue screamed with a "ah" and his upper body had been dragged across the bamboo pole, and he fell into the well. The screams were not over. With a "thump", his whole body was trapped in the water. The cold well water had penetrated through his mouth and nose, and he immediately choked and lost his voice and almost fainted.

This happened so suddenly that An Zi was unprepared. Although she reacted quickly, she grabbed the corner of Gao Yue's clothes at the critical moment, but the impact of falling in was too great. With a "hiss", Gao Yue's clothes were torn, and An Zi only grabbed a torn corner of the clothes.

This shock, both Gao Yue and An Zi, were almost jealous and soul-losing.

"Sir, Lord Zong..." An Zi screamed and lay down to the well, it was dark inside. Where could he see Gao Yue?

Don’t you know whether Gao Yue understands water quality? But wearing heavy clothes falling into the well, it is difficult to swim up, and the weight of the clothes will make you sink.

The clothes of Gao Yue and An Zi are all the secret clothes of the official family, so they are naturally very thick.

An Zi quickly took off his coat, leaving only his white bedcloth, and jumped into the well.

Gao Yue, you don’t think something is wrong... Don’t happen...

The well was big and deep, as if it was not bottom-out. The well was too dark, and my eyes had not adapted for a while, so I could only grop.

Why can't you find it?

There was not even Gao Yue's cry for help.

An Zi dived into the water and groped for a long time, but couldn't hold back his breath, so he could only surface, "Sect Master...Sect Master...Sect Master...Sect Master...Someone..." An Zi took a deep breath while calling for help and dived into the water again.

It's impossible. I saw Gao Yue fall into the well with his own eyes, how could he not find it?

An Zi floated to the water again and looked around. This was because his eyes had adapted to the darkness. He saw a figure in a corner of the well, floating up and down, and it was Gao Yue.

Thank God, it was the head of the sect, and Anzi swam quickly.

When Gao Yue fell down, his momentum was too strong and he was dizzy. His head hit the wooden barrel again. He inhaled too much water in his fright and had difficulty breathing. Where can he call for help?

His clothes were dipped in water and dragged him down heavily, but fortunately he grabbed the wooden barrel. With the help of the buoyancy of the bucket, he struggled to move upwards, and his body sank and floated in the water.

An Zi swam quickly, held Gao Yue's head out of the water, and asked, "Sir, Zong, what's wrong with you? Are you okay!"

Gao Yue no longer has the strength to answer.

Anzi tried hard to hold Gao Yue, not letting him sink, and shouted for help: "Come...Come...Zong Chang fell into the well..."

This place is located in a remote place, with Tianjing and a group of servants repairing the floor in the inner courtyard, and the other servants don't know where they are.

An Zi called for help for a long time, but it seemed that no one heard it.

what to do……?

Gao Yue was exhausted and inhaled too much water from the ups and downs. His consciousness began to be unclear. His hands holding the bucket tightly began to become weak and began to loosen... His whole body became weak and gradually closed his eyes... His body slid into the water...

"Sir, Master Zong... Sir, Master Zong... You can't sleep!" An Zi held Gao Yue's armpits hard so that his mouth and nose would not fall into the water.

Fortunately, there are still wooden barrels to leverage, but An Zi's physical strength is gradually losing, and the heavy clothes dragged the two of them down...

The well is wide and covered with moss, and it is slippery and there is not even a place to hold it.

The well water is so cold, and it is already late autumn, so cold that both of them have turned blue.

Anzi's teeth were unconsciously shaking and trembling. Anzi felt his blood was coagulating and his feet began to cramp...

In the water, foot cramps are the most troublesome thing, and An Zi himself finds it difficult to keep it on the water surface. In addition, he is holding Gao Yue, so he can only hold the bucket and try to support it.

This is not a solution.

If this continues, the two will undoubtedly die.

Do you want to give up?

Give up Gao Yue…?

Otherwise, if this continues, the two will undoubtedly die.

Would they both die in the well like this?

To save yourself, you must give up Gao Yue. Will Anzi do this?

"Cui'er, let go of me... Let me go... I don't want you to die... Sister Mako..." Gao Yue struggled to say this, his voice getting lighter and lighter. The last four words were so light that they were almost whispering to the side of his mouth. Only he heard them himself, and then he closed his eyes.

Nothing is more important than his own life, and Gao Yue is originally the enemy who killed his sister.

An Zi was cruel and said, "I'm sorry, Lord Zong, please forgive me for being disrespectful." She reached out to Gao Yue's waist.

Why do you say "disrespect" at this critical moment of life and death?

What does Anzi want to do?

At this critical moment of life and death, how did An Zi face Gao Yue, the enemy who killed his sister?

Is she trying to save herself?

Is she going to give up Gao Yue?

When life and death are at stake, what is hatred?

Nothing can be done without life.

Living is only between exhalation and inhalation.

Heaven and hell are only in one thought.
