Chapter 275: The Shocked Master and Servant
"Miss, this spring looks nice from the outside, but it's so scary when you look inside~" Qian Sanmei squatted beside Yu Hongdou and stretched her neck to look inside.
"I don't know either." Yu Hongdou shook her head honestly. She couldn't explain why.
As for the fear of deep water or the sea, she also knows about "thaphobia", which makes her feel scared just by looking at the water outlet. She really doesn't know how to describe it.
Not seeing the golden color that Yu Zhi mentioned, Yu Hongdou suspected that the thing had been picked up by someone. She withdrew her gaze from the water outlet and looked towards the well.
The North Spring produces more water than the South Spring, and most villagers come here to fetch water, so the North Spring is better constructed than the South Spring.
Later, it seemed that someone donated money and built a square dragon temple above the wellhead of the north spring.
This Dragon God Temple was built on site and is extremely small, probably about the size of a one-bedroom apartment.
A wall was built directly outside with blue stone, and two red doors were used to enclose the well and a stone-carved dragon god tablet.
These two gates are only opened every year during the annual sacrifice and prayer for rain.
Yu Hongdou hesitated for a moment, and convinced herself that there was nothing unusual about the water outlet, and there would probably be no sign-in mark at the wellhead. She decided to leave it alone and come back later.
"Let's go back." Yu Hongdou did not forget that there were guests at home. Although they were all acquaintances, it would be difficult to neglect them.
Qian Sanmei stood up as she was called, but in such a hurry she dived into the water with her head down. Yu Hongdou was so confused that she hurried to pull her out, and in her panic she accidentally kicked a stone at her feet into the water.
With a "gurgling" sound, a huge bubble of water came out of the well, frightening the master and servant who had just managed to stand firm. They screamed and turned and ran away.
After running all the way to the door of her home, Yu Hongdou, who was still in shock, stopped, looked back at Qian Sanmei, who looked terrified, and couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"Hey, tell me, what are we afraid of? Could a monster come out of that well?"
Yu Hongdou really thought their behavior was funny. They just boasted about how great they were, but ended up running away because of a blister.
Qian Sanmei also laughed, but her face still looked a little frightened: "I always feel like there's some monster hiding under the pile of rocks at the wellhead. It's scary to hear some noise out of nowhere."
Yu Hongdou was startled by her words. After thinking for a while, she found that there were indeed quite a lot of stones at the mouth of the well, and some of them looked like they had just been thrown in.
I don’t know if it was because the child was naughty, or if someone picked up the golden dragon that Yu Zhi mentioned and deliberately threw stones to cover up the traces.
From beginning to end, Yu Hongdou never doubted that Yu Zhi was lying. She believed in her intuition and her judgment of people.
The two of them were talking at the door when the door, which was not closed tightly, was pried open a crack and a head popped out from inside.
"Hongdou, what are you doing? Why don't you come in when you get home?" The owner of the head was Tan Bailu.
"Fifth brother, I was almost eaten by a monster and just escaped. Please give me some time~" Yu Hongdou waved her hands weakly, acting as if she was lucky.
"?" Another head appeared above Tan Bailu's head. As soon as it appeared, it gave Yu Hongdou a big question mark with silence.
"Stop being naughty. What will it look like if others see you?" Master Shang's scolding voice was heard, and Tan Bailu opened the door angrily.
"Hello, Master Shang, hello, Fifth Brother~" Yu Hongdou walked in and greeted them formally.
"Okay~ I should have waited for you in the city. I've been busy lately, but he said you were all having fun in the village, leaving him alone to work hard in the city, so he had to come here to find a balance."
Master Shang pointed at his evil disciple Tan Bailu and explained angrily and helplessly.
Since Yu Song passed the exam, a thank-you banquet must be held for the teachers. However, since Tan Bailu was present, Master Shang did not want too many people to cause noise, so he agreed to wait for them to return and then have a quiet meal.
But Yu Sanlang asked for leave to come back for the banquet, and Tan Bailu sighed and complained about his miserable life. Finally, Yu Sanlang had no choice but to invite the two of them again.
"Teacher, you are wronging me. I was thinking that you must be tired after working with us for several days. Don't I want to bring you here to rest?"
Tan Bailu cried out "Zhuang Tian Qu", but the half-eaten cucumber in his hand ruined the atmosphere and made it a little funny.
Master Shang gave his disciple a big eye roll and turned to wave at Yu Hongdou, "Come here, tell me in detail, why do you sound so wonderful these past few days?"
Yu Hongdou smiled and looked at the people busy with their work in the yard.
Mo Shougui was probably showing off as he was rubbing the octagonal nut parts.
Tan Langxu had just walked back from the door, holding Wangwang's ball in his hand. It was obvious that he had just gone to the door to pick up the ball and took a look.
Both of them are very frugal with their words and don't want to talk too much. Even if they do talk about something, they will probably just stick to the main points.
But where is the eloquent scholar over there? Yu Hongdou looked around but couldn't find Tan Yanlin.
"Looking for Xiao Shiyi? He is writing a letter in the room." Tan Bailu noticed Yu Hongdou's gaze and took the initiative to give an answer.
By the way, he also sold out his brother: "He said that after he finished writing the report, he asked us to ask the emperor."
"It should be like this. Didn't fifth brother do the same thing?" As soon as he mentioned the devil, Tan Yanlin walked out of the house holding a notebook.
"Hey~ I'm the county magistrate, an official, so of course I have to report it first. You kid, quickly confess to me what happened these days!" Tan Bailu laughed in anger, took a step forward and poked his brother's forehead.
Tan Yanlin had a "righteous and upright" look on his face. When his eyes met Yu Hongdou, whose face turned red from trying to hold back her laughter, he couldn't help but sigh.
"Let me tell you~ It happens that I just heard something. I'll go back and ask my fifth brother and the monk about it~" Yu Hongdou watched the show for a while and was afraid that Tan Yanlin would get angry and embarrassed, so she quickly reached out to help him out.
"This story has to start from the day I came back..." Yu Hongdou told them everything that had happened in the past few days.
When she was about to describe the strange secret room with a human-shaped coffin in the underground palace in detail, Tan Bailu and the monk interrupted her at the same time: "Don't mention this anymore."
“?” Yu Hongdou looked over with a confused look on her face.
"Just pretend you haven't seen that secret room. Don't mention it again. It's not good." Tan Bailu's serious warning made Yu Hongdou nodded unconsciously.
Tan Bailu looked around, his eyes gazing far into the back mountain, and said in a very light voice: "This underground palace will probably be blown up and sealed. There are several other underground palaces, and I don't think they can escape either."
Yu Hongdou was stunned for a moment, and then she didn't feel regretful, but felt like the boot had hit the ground.
"Okay, then let's talk about the little fat snake we met after we got out... Hey? I remembered, Brother Jiu, you haven't told me yet, how did you catch those people from the Western Regions after you returned?"
Yu Hongdou just changed the subject and jumped to the topic of leaving the underground palace, but suddenly it occurred to her that she didn't know the process of how the people from the Western Regions were captured!
