Summary of the previous chapter: The first time he explored the dry well failed, Ma Xiaoquan was unwilling to give in and went to explore alone the next night...
The moment his feet landed at the bottom of the well, there were a few rustling sounds. Ma Xiaoquan secretly thought in his mind that it should be the sound of dead leaves being trampled to pieces.
"Huh" let go of the rope, Ma Xiaoquan took the fire stick from his mouth and blew it gently, causing the fire stick to burn.
The dry well was larger than expected, and the walls were not as smooth as Ma Xiaoquan expected. It seemed that the well had been dry for a long time.
Ma Xiaoquan stretched out his right hand and started tapping gently along the well wall. To his regret, the sound of tapping the well wall was nothing unusual except a muffled sound.
"Strange, why did the pebbles make a tinkling sound last night? Did you hear it wrong yesterday?" Ma Xiaoquan began to deny himself, but then immediately affirmed, "No, the first pebble last night was
Even if Dongfang Qingxue throws it away, no matter how wrong it is, it can't be so wrong."
At this point, Ma Xiaoquan nodded affirmatively and started rubbing his feet at the bottom of the well.
"Swiss, swiss, swish..." The sound of dead leaves being trampled and pushed aside was constantly heard from the bottom of the well, but apart from this sound, there seemed to be no other sounds.
Above the wellhead, the night wind blew non-stop, which was in sharp contrast to the rustling sound below the well.
"Haha..." Ma Xiaoquan shook his head, "If the wind hadn't blown on the well, I wouldn't have rubbed my feet so wantonly, right?"
After burning incense for about a while, Ma Xiaoquan felt that he had rubbed the bottom of the well almost completely. He put down the fire stick and looked at it again, and Ma Xiaoquan found two small stones.
"Well, these should be the pebbles Dongfang Qingxue and I threw last night, right?" Ma Xiaoquan squatted down, picked up the pebbles, and then fell freely.
"Ding ding", the pebbles fell on the bottom of the well and made two crisp sounds.
"Hmm? Bottom of the well?" Ma Xiaoquan raised his foot and gently tapped the bottom of the well twice with the toe of his shoe.
"Ding ding" sounded twice again.
"Sure enough... it turns out to be the bottom of the well... Hmm." Ma Xiaoquan squatted down again, pushed aside the dead leaves and loose soil under his feet, and tapped a few more times with his fingers.
"There should be something at the bottom of this well... Otherwise, the heart of time in my body would not be so restless..."
Ma Xiaoquan followed the bottom of the well and groped with his hands. When he felt the edge of the bottom of the well, he found something suspicious.
"Well, it seems that the bottom of the well is suspiciously open, but I don't know who created this dry well?"
Ma Xiaoquan took a long breath, grabbed the protruding place with both hands, and moved it hard. He heard two "quacking" sounds, and a corner was lifted from the bottom of the well by Ma Xiaoquan.
Although it is a dry well, the bottom of the well is pitch black, and there may be some poisons such as scorpions or centipedes. Although Ma Xiaoquan is immune to poisons, it will still hurt if he is bitten.
Considering this problem, Ma Xiaoquan decided to summon the flame girl Xiaoshuang.
"Xiaoshuang...Xiaoshuang...come out and help me. Don't do anything else, just shine a light on me, right?"
"Xiaoshuang...Xiaoshuang?"
"Hello Xiaoshuang, Xiaoshuang, you are the best..."
"Can you get out?"
"If you don't come out, I will..."
...
After calling for a long time, Xiaoshuang ignored Ma Xiaoquan at all. Except for the occasional fluctuations in his body, Ma Xiaoquan no longer felt Xiaoshuang's breath.
"It's really..."
Ma Xiaoquan sighed helplessly and finally decided to do it himself.
Fortunately, when he went out, he brought more fire rods with him. Ma Xiaoquan illuminated them one by one. After a lot of effort, he finally lifted up the stone slabs at the bottom of the well.
As soon as the stone slab was lifted, water immediately poured upward.
Ma Xiaoquan was startled, and in a hurry, he also dropped the fire seal.
After two "chichi" sounds, the fire was soaked by the well water and extinguished.
"No wonder this is a dry well... It turns out that the bottom of the well was blocked with stone slabs." Ma Xiaoquan shook his head, "I thought it was something fun. I've been making trouble for a long time. It turns out this well is like this. Come on, go up.
..."
Having said this, Ma Xiaoquan pulled up the end of the rope and prepared to go out.
At this moment, the dry well that was still pumping out underground water suddenly stopped.
"Huh?" Ma Xiaoquan turned his head, holding a long fire stick and looking along the weak light.
I don't know this, but I hope it's so frightening.
A green and black thing was staring at Ma Xiaoquan with its dark blue eyes blinking.
"Fuck me!" The hair all over Ma Xiaoquan's body suddenly stood up, and he involuntarily stepped back. In a panic, he pulled hard and broke the rope in his hand.
The dry well is such a big place, where can we retreat to? What's more, the rope broke, what the hell is going on?
Leaning against the wall of the well, Ma Xiaoquan swallowed hard. The long fire stick in his hand was almost burned out. Ma Xiaoquan immediately took out another one from his arms and blew on it.
This was the first time Ma Xiaoquan was afraid since he traveled through physical time, because he didn't even know what the thing in front of him was only half a step away?
Yuan is still sleeping, and he has temporarily lost all his superpowers, which means...if he encounters danger at this moment, there is a 100% chance that he will die.
"Damn, I didn't expect that I, Ma Xiaoquan, would die in a dry well today after traveling for decades. Damn it..." Ma Xiaoquan took a deep breath, and at this moment...
The last fire stick in my hand has almost burned out.
The inside of the well became darker and darker, and finally, when the fire broke out, the inside of the well suddenly became dark.
Ma Xiaoquan was so angry that he didn't dare to say a word, but the unknown thing that was only half a step away in front of him suddenly moved at this moment.
"Holy shit" Ma Xiaoquan was so frightened that he cursed.
When the darkness completely fell, the unknown things began to move.
"Sand...sand...sand..." The thing was moving, but it was too dark inside the well. Ma Xiaoquan could not see anything except a pair of dark blue eyes.
.
"Damn it... If I had known that when I came back, I would have asked Dr. Mingfa for some new superpower capsules... Hey, at least I would have taken the capsules that enable night vision...
..." Ma Xiaoquan secretly regretted it.
The unknown thing moved very slowly, but Ma Xiaoquan could feel it and see it moving.
Originally there was still half a step away from that thing, but now it is very close.
Ma Xiaoquan smiled bitterly, and suddenly a lot of the past flashed through his mind.
"Am I really going to die?" Ma Xiaoquan shook his head and closed his eyes gently.
