Chapter 244 Bottom of the Well
Chapter 244: Bottom of the Well
Bai Yanliang will never hesitate again when he makes up his mind.
After saying hello to Yu Wenxuan and Jiang Li, he stepped onto the edge of the well and pulled the hemp rope to confirm that he had tied it firmly enough.
The other end of the hemp rope was handed over to Yu Wenxuan and Jiang Li, so he didn't need to worry about the rest.
Bai Yanliang lowered his head and glanced down, feeling a bone-chilling chill rushing towards him.
If possible, no one would want to go to such a terrifying place.
But Bai Yanliang had a reason to go down, because... he saw in the death scene just now that the weird baby had a... key on his wrist.
A blood-red key.
Although the color was different, the simple shape made Bai Yanliang recognize it at a glance.
That is definitely the key to "Fog Set"!
Why?
Could it be that that baby was once a member of a weird space like "Fog Set"?
Or is it that as a fierce ghost, it once killed a member of the Wuji who had the key?
Wait...
Bai Yanliang suddenly thought of something extremely important!
He grabbed the rope and sat on the edge of the well, his legs hanging empty in the well.
But at this moment, Bai Yanliang's brain was running rapidly.
If he remembered correctly...when this mission first appeared, Wuji had not yet started to undergo strange changes.
That was also the first time he entered the fog, and the first mission he performed... was at the Ruyi Hotel in the foggy space, thirteen years ago.
During the same time period, there were other two groups of members performing other tasks.
Among them, the group with Wei Xiu as the grudger performed this task.
These three groups of tasks appeared at the same time, so the first task of "hiding the moon in the mountains and fishing for coffins under the water" should have been between years. Combined with the work notes... Bai Yanliang came up with an extremely bold idea. in conclusion.
The plague broke out in Zhongyuan Village twelve years ago. Could it be the time when Wei Xiu and the others returned when they first performed this mission?
If that's really the case...why didn't Wei Xiu and the others appear in that yellowed booklet?
Or... the past world of Wuji is just a copy of events that have already happened.
No matter what actions they have taken, they cannot affect and change the future.
But in this case...how to explain the blood-red key?
It should only condense in a space like "fog gathering".
Bai Yanliang is even more convinced of his second inference, which is... Wei Xiu and the others went to the time when the plague broke out twelve years ago. That was the first time the strange phenomenon appeared, and the horror of that time directly wiped out Wei Xiu. Everyone who practices in a group.
Thinking about it combined with the reappearance of the death scene he just saw... The ancient well was still in use at that time, and the crowd of people watching included young and old. It was obviously before the outbreak of the plague.
So... the strange disease only started to appear after the weird baby fell into the well.
But in the death scene that Bai Yanliang saw, the key was already on the baby's wrist. If the key was really the private property of someone in Wei Xiu's group, it means...the time when they were collectively killed. point, should be before the outbreak of the plague.
In other words... that weird baby existed in some form before birth, and... it was terrifying enough to kill everyone in Wei Xiu's group, possibly even including a key holder with a hidden identity... …
If this is really the case...
Doesn’t that mean that the tasks released by Wuji in the past world can actually affect the real world?
This is simply incredible...
But... no matter what, Bai Yanliang is going to get the blood-red key.
He had already learned how to use the key from Xu Zhifei, and now he needed one to practice with.
Moreover, being beaten without fighting back already made Bai Yanliang a little annoyed. He felt that he needed to give something back to An Yuan.
Although I was thinking a lot, in the real world it only lasted two or three seconds.
In the eyes of Jiang Li and Yu Wenxuan, Bai Yanliang just sat by the well and adjusted his condition. The fact seemed to be what they thought. When they looked again, Bai Yanliang had already grasped the hemp rope with both hands alternately and began to descend to the bottom of the well.
There is no water in this well, Bai Yanliang has confirmed this.
However, the moment his entire body sank vertically into the well, the hairs all over Bai Yanliang's body suddenly stood up.
Cold, dank, decayed, bloody... all kinds of strong negative auras came from all directions, they were all-pervasive, making Bai Yanliang's brain go blank for nearly a second.
After regaining consciousness again, Bai Yanliang discovered that he had actually fallen to the bottom of the well.
It's really scary...
Bai Yan sighed silently in his conscience.
The feet were made of rotten, soft soil, and the surroundings were eerily dark, as if the sun couldn't shine in at all.
Bai Yanliang stood close to one side of the well wall and looked around.
The bottom of the well was much larger than he had imagined.
The heart began to speed up involuntarily.
Although Bai Yanliang did not feel fear.
But there seemed to be some strange magnetic field at the bottom of the well, which was affecting him violently.
On the ground, Yu Wenxuan and Jiang Li tied the other end of the hemp rope to a dead tree, and they watched the movement of the hemp rope closely.
As long as it shakes left and right three times in a row, Bai Yanliang will be pulled up immediately.
At this time, Jiang Li suddenly shivered.
"It seems to be getting cold..."
Jiang Li's voice was very neutral, so Yu Wenxuan didn't have any thoughts of taking care of the girl after hearing her say cold.
But gradually, Yu Wenxuan discovered that something seemed wrong with Jiang Li.
Her hair, eyebrows, and even eyelashes began to freeze, and her face and lips were livid with cold.
She can't move!
"Hello."
Yu Wenxuan's expression changed slightly, and he patted Jiang Li's arm. It was cold and hard!
Was it done by ghosts?
Yu Wenxuan immediately looked at the mouth of the well, even though he promised Bai Yanliang to pull him up.
But if there is any strange noise coming from the well, Yu Wenxuan will not hesitate to throw all the hemp rope into the well so that the thing will never come up.
However, there was no movement from the well, not even the hemp rope moved.
If something strange happened in the well, what happened to Jiang Li?
Yu Wenxuan glanced around with cold eyes, quickly searching for every unusual place.
Unfortunately, he found nothing.
Everything is normal around him, why is Jiang Li suddenly frozen like this?
Yu Wenxuan stared at Jiang Li. She was too cold to speak. Even turning her eyes was a luxury.
But Yu Wenxuan could feel the despair in Jiang Li's eyes when he looked at him.
What the hell is going on?
Yu Wenxuan accidentally glanced at Jiang Li's feet. He was suddenly startled and his expression suddenly changed.
"So that's it, damn it."
