hearse drift

Fang Li looked at Xie Baiyuan, and it was no surprise to see him frowning.

"When did that happen?" Fang Li asked.

Meng Shuisheng frowned with pain on his face, wondering if he was being held back by urine, "Three or four years ago, anyway, when I was in elementary school, I was not here at that time, and I heard what my parents said. "

This seems to be a tradition here. People in Tenjin Town must study in the town for junior high school.

Le Xian also said that the whole family is counting on him to get into the city's Chong Gao, so that their family doesn't have to continue living in Tianshen Town.

It's a pity that he will never be able to take the high school entrance examination.

"I don't know anything else." Meng Shuisheng said, "But I have heard a lot of rumors in school."

Fang Li's heart moved, and he asked, "What other rumors do you have in your school?"

Meng Shuisheng said: "There are quite a few. For example, it is said that the mayor's daughter once studied here, but because of being excluded and bullied by others, one of them couldn't think about it and committed suicide by jumping into the well. Here, it is the well south of our school. The flower beds are suppressed."

"What kind of suppression method is there in the flower bed?"

"This has a lot of background, can I go to the toilet first?" Meng Shuisheng grinned as if he had eaten a sour plum, "If this continues, I'm going to pee my pants."

Fang Li had no choice but to let him go pee, dumbfounded.

Neither of them had the hobby of watching little boys pee, and the smell in the toilet was unpleasant, so they simply walked out of the toilet and breathed the outside air while waiting.

It was Meng Shuisheng's classmate who was stopped by Gu Feng and Yu Jiaxi. He watched Meng Shuisheng being captured by these two men. A few minutes later, the two men came out of the toilet talking and laughing, but Meng Shuisheng was nowhere to be seen. , can not help but feel a little impatient.

"Where's Meng Shuisheng? What did you do to him?" In fact, the boy was not very courageous, and he was asking Meng Shuisheng's whereabouts.

Xie Baiyuan glanced at him when he was passing by with his pocket in his pocket, and said in a neutral manner: "He, I'm done eating and I'm a little full. I'll eat you later."

"..."

The little boy was about to open his mouth and call for help in the next second.

Fortunately, Gu Feng quickly covered his mouth one step ahead of time, and blocked the cry of help.

Fang Li said helplessly, "Why are you scaring him?"

Xie Baiyuan: "It was a casual joke, who knew he would be so careless."

Fang Li once again felt Xie Baiyuan's occasional bad taste.

At this moment, there was a muffled sound in the men's room.

Fang Li and Xie Baiyuan glanced at each other—it was the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.

There was a stench in the air, several people rushed into the toilet at the same time, a puddle of water appeared on the tiled floor at some point, and the little boy who rushed in behind them slipped and fell.

The bucket fell to the ground and whirled around, but all eyes were on the ceiling above.

There was an unusually huge black snake entangled there, its body tightly wrapped around Meng Shuisheng's body.

Meng Shuisheng was hung in the air, with his legs struggling wildly. Because his mouth and nose were tightly bound, he couldn't even utter a voice for help.

Wrapping around him was a monster with the head of a man and the body of a snake.

The head was turned away from them, and all they could see was its long, wet, naturally falling hair.

The little boy who fell to the ground held his butt that hurt from the fall, and was so frightened that he couldn't make a sound.

Xie Baiyuan immediately grabbed the mop leaning against the corner, stepped on the mop with one foot, and pulled out the stick.

No matter how big or small the snake is, hit the snake seven inches first.

Xie Baiyuan yanked his stick over with such great force that the snake let go of its tail in pain, and Meng Shuisheng fell from the air without restraint.

Xie Baiyuan didn't know what he thought of, and immediately shouted: "Don't look into its eyes."

Fang Li moved faster than his brain, without asking why, he raised his hand to cover his eyes like a conditioned reflex.

After a few minutes, the stench of stagnant water slowly dissipated in the air.

Xie Baiyuan's voice sounded from beside his ears, like snow and ice blowing away: "Let's go."

Fang Li opened his eyes, and the terrifying big snake had indeed disappeared without a trace.

Meng Shuisheng fell to the side, perhaps because he was overly frightened and passed out.

Gu Feng took a series of first aid measures for him, and finally he woke up after he pinched the person who pinched him.

When he woke up, he started crying.

"Woooo, I'm still young, I'm still five years old, I don't want to die..."

Xie Baiyuan was annoyed by his crying, and stepped forward to grab his collar.

"Don't cry, I will pay respects to the god of heaven in a while, and everything will be fine."

Meng Shuisheng sobbed twice, and immediately wiped back his tears.

Xie Baiyuan let go of his collar, and his tone was a little gentler than before: "What's the background of that flower bed, tell me about it."

"It's really nothing," Meng Shuisheng burped as soon as he opened his mouth, "I just said that there was something in the well in the flower bed, and I specially invited someone to suppress it. I don't know exactly how it was suppressed."

A few people turned their attention to the kid who fell and squatted on the other side. He also shook his head and said that he didn't know anything.

As for whether it is true or not, I can't say for sure.

In order to save his life, of course he chose to keep his mouth shut.

"Forget it, let's go over and have a look." Fang Li said from the side.

He could see that these children had been frightened by what happened just now, even if they knew something, they would never dare to speak out.

Meng Shuisheng seemed to see a glimmer of life, and immediately followed Fang Li's words and said, "Yes, you are so powerful, just go and have a look."

Xie Baiyuan pondered for a moment, stood up and brushed his palms, "I see, that well is in the flower bed?"

"Yes," Meng Shuisheng himself was kind-hearted, and he couldn't help admonishing them: "When you look at it, it's best to keep a certain distance from that well...I don't know about the other things, it's really not Know."

Fang Li thanked him: "You all go back quickly, I wish you all good grades in the exam."

Meng Shuisheng and his little friend walked away supporting each other, Fang Li and others cleaned up the mess in the toilet a little bit, washed their hands and came out of the toilet, looking as if they just went to the toilet normally.

At least that's what Tang Chong, who was secretly following them along the corridor, thought so.

During the class, the school was very quiet, only the teacher's unhurried lectures and the occasional laughter of the students.

Fang Li and the others returned to the base of the wall they turned over earlier. There were two flower beds here, and they soon discovered an abnormality in the other flower bed.

"Half peach trees, half pagoda trees..." Xie Baiyuan clicked his tongue lightly.

Gu Feng was stunned: "What's wrong with this flower bed? Fengshui problem?"

Fang Li didn't know much about Feng Shui, but because he was often haunted by nightmares when he was a teenager, Mrs. Fang often asked experts to advise him.

Those "experts" were mostly Taoist priests or eminent monks in temples, and one of them even gave him a peach wood pillow.

Peach wood belongs to yang, and even yang wood is the essence of the five elements and can control all ghosts; correspondingly, locust tree belongs to yin, which is the ghost in the tree. Because of the heavy yin, it is easy to attract ghosts to possess.

In this flower bed, peach trees and pagoda trees are planted at the same time, one yin and one yang, achieving a certain degree of harmony.

"This is the method of suppression that Meng Shuisheng said?" Fang Li guessed.

Xie Baiyuan has already stepped into the flower bed with one leg.

The green plants in this flower bed grow better than other places, and the trees are more luxuriant.

Flowers and grass covered his calves and grew to knee height.

"Don't come in." Xie Baiyuan turned around and said, "Stand outside and wait for me."

Fang Li hesitated for three seconds, then silently withdrew his tentative foot from the edge of the flower bed.

The well was in the middle of the flower bed. Xie Baiyuan pushed aside the flowers and plants, and saw the well head submerged under the flowers and plants.

The mouth of the well was dark, and Xie Baiyuan was one meter away from it, and the familiar stench came over his face.

His keen hearing made him vaguely hear a slight rustling sound coming from the well, as if some reptile was twisting its body and crawling along the stone wall.

Around the flower bed, there are four Buddhist shrines in the southeast, northwest, all facing the mouth of the well, as if they are dutifully guarding the things in the well.

Xie Baiyuan narrowed his eyes, turned around and exited the flower bed after a while.

"How?" Fang Li asked hastily.

Xie Baiyuan looked at him, but said without a word: "The thing is down there, but you need a rope to get it. Let's go back and get the rope first."

Fang Li: "??"

He almost wanted to ask something, but quickly realized what Xie Baiyuan meant.

"When I went out, I told you to remember to bring the rope, why did you forget it." He deliberately dragged his tone and complained, pretending that his teammates were not in harmony, and cooperated with Xie Baiyuan in acting. "Such an important thing, what if someone gets there first?"

Xie Baiyuan smiled and said, "No, no one will come to school except us."

The two people on the opposite side looked at each other, and belatedly understood what the two of them meant. They wanted to act for Tang Chong.

So Fang Li complained a few words symbolically. Gu Feng and Yu Jiaxi expressed that they did not dare to complain, and they just watched Fang Li complain about Xie Baiyuan's self-assertion and forgetfulness.

Fang Li breathed a sigh of relief, and glanced at the place where Tang Chong was hiding, wondering if he should just let it go.

Before he could close it, there was a soft touch from the corner of his mouth.

Fang Li froze in place, allowing Xie Baiyuan to kiss his lips twice like a chicken pecking rice.

Very light, fast, and comforting.

Xie Baiyuan rubbed his head: "Okay, don't be angry, I will pay attention next time."

Fang Li: "..."

Are we really getting a script?

The other two people who took the script of the real teammate looked up at the sky and said that they saw nothing.

Ah, the sun is so nice today.

The cloud in the distance is especially like a child's innocent smiling face.

When they climbed over the wall and left the school, Tang Chong ran out from behind the teaching building.

He had just heard with his own ears that Xie Baiyuan told the other party that the thing they were looking for was in the well in the flower bed.

It still sounds like a very important item...maybe it's a vital item.

He only hesitated for two seconds before raising his legs and stepping into the flower bed.

Kicking away those obstructing flowers and plants, the well appeared quietly in front of me.

Tang Chong is still relatively vigilant. To survive at this level, his ability to perceive danger is essential except for his bad stomach.

To be on the safe side, he first pulled out a few rose plants and threw them into the mouth of the well.

After waiting for 3 minutes, there was no change at the wellhead.

He relaxed a little, took out the flashlight from his bag, approached the well step by step, and shone the light on the mouth of the well.

A cold wind blew out from the well, accompanied by a strong stench.

Tang Chong's pupils dilated, and the hair on his back stood on end.However, the thing down the well did not give him a chance to escape, and it had already climbed up the well wall quickly.

The thing was cold and slippery, and it quickly wound up, dragging the person into the well.

Before losing consciousness, Tang Chong saw a woman's face, and a pair of golden vertical pupils on that pale face.

After a while, the well returned to calm again, as if a person who had eaten had fallen into a peaceful sleep.

Fang Li and the others wandered around the school for half an hour.

Tang Chong never came out, it seemed that he had fallen into their trap.

"Let's go, go back first, and come back on the day of the sacrifice." Xie Baiyuan beckoned.

Yu Jiaxi looked in the direction of the school with some hesitation: "Will it be bad to do this?"

Fang Li didn't think too much about it, he was full of bad things, and he was not merciful at all when he used his teammates as his scapegoat.

Yu Jiaxi knew that they misunderstood what she meant, and quickly added: "I want to say that killing teammates indirectly in the dungeon is also illegal, and will they be punished or something."

Xie Baiyuan sneered when he heard the words: "That must be indirect. There is indeed something down the well. If something happened to him, he would go there voluntarily. What does it have to do with us?"

This is true. Strictly speaking, Xie Baiyuan just said some vague words, not even a bluff.

Yu Jiaxi felt relieved, she was not a holy mother, and she was worried because she cared about her teammates.

...After all, the teammate is already going against the sky, she just helps to think about the aftermath.

On the way back, Fang Li couldn't help asking Xie Baiyuan: "When I met that snake in the toilet..." He thought about what the correct quantifier should be, and finally decided to use "tiao", "When you met that snake, why did you come across it?" Say don't look into its eyes?"

Xie Baiyuan thought for a few seconds, and replied: "Actually, I was just guessing, or because of the tauren I saw before. The Minotaur, this is a monster in ancient Greek myths, so I heard Meng Shuisheng say When I saw the human head and the snake body, I thought of another monster in ancient Greek mythology, Medusa."

Medusa, a banshee in ancient Greek mythology, has snakes in her hair.

Anyone who looks into her eyes will be turned to stone.

Although this was only Xie Baiyuan's conjecture, and the snake man was not completely similar to Medusa, he still yelled this sentence at a critical moment.

The four of them returned to the hotel according to the directions on the map. When they passed Junping Restaurant, the door of the restaurant was still closed.

When I asked the people next to me, I learned that the boss hadn't opened for several days.

Fang Li looked at the closed door for a while, feeling that it was not that simple, and he couldn't help but glance at Xie Baiyuan again.

Xie Baiyuan continued walking without any reaction.

They left the front of the restaurant and just walked a few steps when the window on the second floor of the restaurant opened from the inside.

The woman in the red cheongsam stood in front of the window, put her hand on the window sill, and watched Xie Baiyuan's back quietly until they disappeared around the corner.
