Since there is an area in the Populus euphratica forest where the air is slightly humid and some desert vegetation can grow, it means there is abundant water here.
Please refer again to the fact that an ancient river flowed here thousands of years ago.
There must be an underground river beneath Teshsata Village, and the underground river is not small. The ancient river at that time only disappeared on the surface, but the underground river has always existed.
After Jin An helped old Sadiq and young Sahafu who were kneeling towards him, he took out the water talisman from his arms that had been awarded the title of Erlang Zhenjun four times, and began to explore the underground environment with the help of water vapor.
With the help of the power of Fu Dao, the spiritual consciousness began to dive all the way down. The deeper the well, the heavier the water vapor became. Jin'an was like a fish jumping into the sea, and the spiritual consciousness wandered freely down the well.
Gurgling——
There is the sound of gurgling underground water under the dry well.
This voice is very weak.
Ordinary people can't hear it even if they go to the bottom of a well.
Only when Jin'an relied on the power of the God of Water on the water talisman ordered by Zhenjun Erlang and his six senses went deep into the ground, could he hear the slight sound of gurgling water.
The water level in this underground river is a bit deep.
soon.
He then discovered the reason why the well water was drying up.
Put away the yellow charm.
Close your eyes and wake up.
"Has Taoist Master Jin An discovered anything?" Yali said respectfully. He respected Jin An even more now.
At this time, even old Sadiq and young Sahafu looked at Jin An expectantly.
They left the village in search of new water sources.
The Vulture initially said that it could help restore clean water to the well in the village.
As a result, he was deceived.
The deception involved leaving my hometown for two years.
Now there is new hope before them again. They are full of expectations, but also frustrated and nervous. They have been disappointed once and are afraid of being disappointed again.
Jin An did not deliberately sell out, and said straight to the point: "There is indeed living water under this well, but the living water is buried a bit deep. Compared with this, I found the reason why the well water is really drying up."
"This well is far from being only six or seven feet deep as it appears on the surface." Jin An frowned slightly and shook his head.
"Actually, the water in this well is covered with a thick layer of silt. After digging out this layer of silt, the real depth of the water in this well is more than ten feet. The thick layer of silt is not formed by the collapse of the well wall, but by the collapse of the well wall.
There is a platform of an ancient building under the water of this well. The underground river has been eroding the platform for many years. It may have taken hundreds of years, or it may have taken thousands of years to accumulate a thick layer of sand on the platform of the ancient building underground.
.”
"Because the underground river under this well is relatively large, the sediment layer is always wet and cannot be drained. Therefore, when the water level of the underground river is high, the water seeps upward, forming clear well water. When the water level of the underground river drops, it becomes turbid.
Yellow mud water.”
Everyone was stunned for a moment after hearing this.
Unexpectedly, a seemingly ordinary well has so many hidden secrets.
However, after a little thought, it turns out that there is such a large area of ​​Populus euphratica forest here, and that ancient rivers and ancient civilizations were once born here. It is normal for there to be some ancient ruins under this well.
"Could it be the ruins of an ancient country buried by yellow sand?" someone guessed.
Others stood up and retorted: "There is a well here, which means that the terrain here has not changed for thousands of years. How can any ancient country put the well water on the surface and build the country underground? Isn't this a waste of time to take off your pants and fart?"
"
Jin An was amused.
I never expected that there are still people in the desert who understand idioms.
At this time, others were still continuing to discuss, and Ari was acting as a translator.
"If you ask me, this must be a royal mausoleum or a general's mausoleum. Only the royal family or generals have the financial resources and manpower to build magnificent mausoleums underground."
"Are you really stupid? Well water is for living people to drink. Why would anyone drill a well on a tomb? Is it because they are afraid that the dead will die of thirst?"
Seeing that the two people were quarreling, Yali took out his captain and shouted majestically to stop the two people. However, he could not hold back his curiosity and carefully asked Jin An: "Priest Jin An, have you seen this well?"
What are the ancient buildings under the water?"
Jin An pondered and said: "Although I don't know what the ancient building under the well is, it should not be difficult to guess that it should be a mausoleum for the burial of the dead. It may not be impossible to drill a well above the mausoleum. The water is Yin.
, flowing living water also represents vitality in the tomb. Arranging living springs or well water in the tomb is called to release the yin energy, bring vitality, and reconcile yin and yang to prevent the yin energy in the tomb from being too heavy and causing unclean things.
.”
"What exactly it is, we can only find out what it is by digging out the bottom of the blocked well."
He is not being modest.
Erlang Zhenjun's Imperial Water Talisman can only sense that there is something underneath.
What exactly does it look like?
You have to see it with the naked eye to know.
Now Yali and the others have reached the point of blindly worshiping Jin An.
They believed whatever Jin An said.
Even if Jin An said there was gold in the well, they would still believe it.
Yali said with envy: "Taoist Master Jin'an, you know so much. You are much more knowledgeable than those of us who only see sand in our eyes."
Jin An smiled and said: "This is what an old Taoist priest told me. What I know is not as good as one thousandth of what he does."
After finishing speaking, he turned to ask old Sadiq if he knew the secret under the well.
Old Sadiq shook his head in confusion. He didn't know about this and had never heard anyone from the older generation in the village talk about it.
When old Sadiq heard the news for the first time, his eyes were shocked. It was indeed the first time for him to see it.
Out of curiosity, Jin An took off his Taoist robe, rolled up his sleeves, found a shovel, and planned to go into the well to dig out the clogged soil and sand. He wanted to see with his own eyes what secrets were hidden under the well?
When he heard that Jin An wanted to go down the well himself, Yali was worried about Jin An's safety and that the well walls were not strong enough and the dig would collapse, so he volunteered to let him go down the well to dig out the silt and sand.
But Jin An rejected it.
"Yari, the underground environment is so narrow and claustrophobic, and the air is so thin, that a normal person would be at risk of suffocation and coma if he went down there, not to mention the intense physical exertion of clearing out the silt and sand, even if a strong person came, it would be useless. Now there is no
It’s not that whoever has good physical strength can stay underground longer, but I have practiced a martial art similar to the Turtle Breathing Kung Fu in Jianghu. I can hold my breath for a long time without breathing, so I am the most suitable person to go down the well.”
It took Jin An a while to persuade everyone present and the sheep to stop. Then he grabbed the rope and descended to the bottom of the well.
He was not wrong.
It's very dark and claustrophobic down here.
Not only was the air humid, but it was also thin. As he went deeper and deeper, the well dug deeper and deeper. Eventually, even the torches used for lighting were extinguished due to the thin air.
In the dark and claustrophobic environment, he stepped on a wide wooden board as a floating board to avoid sinking into the wet mud like a swamp. Then, buckets of mud and sand dripping with turbid yellow water were shaken up by the people above.
.
After digging the well to a depth of about ten feet, a hidden L-shaped bend actually appeared in the well. In this environment, normal people would basically be unable to breathe, let alone digging the well vigorously for a long time.
This also indirectly resulted in the secrets underground never being discovered.
Not long after Jin An dug down this time, sparks burst out with a "ding" sound. He finally dug to the bottom, and the shovel hit a rock platform protruding from the well wall. Strangely enough, the water level of the underground river happened to drop.
to a position flush with the rock platform.
The location of this rock platform has been precisely designed. When the underground river dries up and the water level drops, this rock platform will be exposed. It is usually hidden under the water without being discovered.
Moreover, it is hidden behind a corner. It is difficult to find this hidden corner without draining the well water.
The blocking sediment here is when the underground river rushes to the corner platform, the water flow is blocked, and the yellow sand precipitates. Over the years, it accumulates thicker and thicker on the platform, eventually blocking the bottom of the well.
Perhaps because it is covered with sand all year round, there are not many small vegetations such as moss on the rock platform.
The rock platform was very slippery, and there was a lot of slippery mud that had not been shoveled clean.
Everyone in the well saw that no new sediment had been brought up from the well for a long time. They lay with their heads on the well mouth and called Jin An down. As a result, everyone heard the gurgling sound of water while lying on the well mouth.
"The sound of water?"
