Chapter 161: The Ancient Well Secret Room


"Actually, it's not that you are lonely and unheard, but that almost all the people who know what the Ji family has are dead, don't look at me living for such a long time, in fact, I don't know too much about what the Ji family really has, but there is one thing I am a little suspicious.""

Which point" "From ancient times to the present, the people of the Ji family have lived a special life, and it is said that the second generation of the Ji family has lived for nearly 300 years. ”"There are many long-lived people since ancient times, what can this mean" "The second generation of the Ji family's ancestor is named Ji Guang, that is, the seventh generation of ghost heads, although most of the things about the ancestors are not very credible legends, but I have seen such a saying in the Ji family chronicles, which says that the royal storyteller has four divisions, but this fourth division has been banned, and this fourth division is the famous evil spirit shop on the rivers and lakes, and this evil spirit shop was originally in charge of the Ji family. ”"What evil spirit shop is in charge of the Ji family, if what you say is true, then it is not an accident that the bull nose called Miki took the initiative to approach the Ji family, and the disaster of the Ji family is inevitable.""

I think so too, and I also know that the eldest brother Ji Benlu didn't just come to Miki to discuss the Tao, they were actually discussing something, and this issue also involved the disaster that happened to the Ji family later.""

I think I've guessed what they were talking about."

I didn't say the answer, but I already have a spectrum in my heart, if I guessed correctly, the topic that Ji Benlu and Miki discussed at the beginning was the Heavenly Corpse Sutra, which is also the most important basis for why the Heavenly Corpse Sutra finally fell into the hands of Qingcheng Niubi.In addition, Wei Niang once lived and died with Ji Guang, so she had a close relationship with the Ji family from the beginning, from Ji Guang being chased and killed by the three divisions, until she was later buried in Wuling, and then the flower family's ancestor Huayuelou used means to gather his soul to create evil spirits, all of which are rooted in the Heavenly Corpse Sutra, and it can even be said that the focus is actually the evil spirit shop.However, as for whether this evil spirit shop has never been lost, or whether it was turned out by someone from an unknown place in the Ji family, these are unknown, and if we can't find the ninth master, we don't have an answer at all, of course, the people who know are not only the ninth master of the Ji family, Wei Niang definitely knows more than him, but I don't know why Wei Niang refuses to say it.In fact, from the beginning of the matter to the present, everything is related to the Ji family, and more and more people and things are involved, and I feel that the truth is about to be dug out.When I looked up at the well, which was nearly 10 meters high, my brain suddenly ached, because the inner wall of the well was too slippery and there was no point of focus, so I wanted to climb out of here to be like climbing to the sky.I don't have the skills of Wei Niang, and I can't jump out of the well all at once like her, so I can only think of other ways.But in this current environment, I really can't think of any way to help myself get out, so I have no choice but to stare at the well rope on the wellhead in a daze, hoping that the rope will slowly hang down.Of course, all this is just a fantasy, and the well rope will not hang down for no reason, unless someone comes to help.Wei Niang and I followed Ji Benchu to the Ji family's old mansion alone, and the others didn't know that we were here at all, maybe they would find this place slowly, but by that time, I guess I would have starved to death.In desperation, I also began to smile bitterly, but fortunately, Ji Benchu was still around, at least there was someone who could talk to me, so I didn't feel lonely for the time being.However, Ji Benchu is very old, and he will definitely not last long in this environment, and I beat him up before, and the old man's body will not be able to hold it anymore.I saw that his face was pale and trembling at this time, so I immediately went over and hugged him to help him keep warm.But at the same time as I hugged him, I suddenly felt something ring-shaped under my feet, and the whole person was also tripped up, and I involuntarily fell forward, and this time I also pressed the old man Ji Benchu directly into the water.I'm a northerner, and I usually don't have much time to play with water, so the water is not too good, so it is inevitable that I will be nervous when I plunge into the water, and when people choke on water, they are often overflowing with survival instincts, and they will catch whatever they have to hold, so this time it also hurt the old man Ji Benchu.However, the old rivers and lakes are the old rivers and lakes, although the means are not very good, but the experience in all aspects is still relatively sophisticated.At the moment when I choked on water, the old man pushed me violently, and he stopped me from continuing to fall forward, but the reverse force also pushed him farther, and it was only then that I realized that there was more space at the bottom of the well.The well is old enough that it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a monument, and the most important thing is that I don't care about the monument, but about the same structure as the old Chinese mansions in ancient times.Chinese have attached great importance to the feng shui of the house since ancient times, and some large families that are quite famous in the local area attach great importance to these.Feng Shui is related to whether people are prosperous or not, and it is also related to the fortune and future of the family, so there can be no sloppiness.Since ancient times, there has been a natural water vein, the wind refers to the source of auspicious qi and the destination of the filthy air, and water represents vitality, but also symbolizes vitality, and it is said that water can wash away filth and take away diseases and disasters, so the meaning of wind echoes each other at this point.The water veins in the old house will definitely not be stagnant water, so there will naturally be a place to go, and after I finally stood firm, I and the old man began to follow the direction of the groundwater to find the way.It was indeed the same as I expected, there was really a larger space under this ancient well, and the location we were in before was only a puddle of underground river stranded due to the dry season, and there was a steady stream of water around this puddle, but the water potential was not too strong, so we couldn't hear the sound of water at all, and we waited all the way to find that there was a cave.Because of the existence of the blood sunflower, my eyes can see things in the dark clearly, but the old man Ji Benchu can't do it, and he stumbled along the way, and I don't know how many times he has been bumped.The old man complained bitterly, and in the end he simply didn't leave, and said that he would let me find the way by myself, and when I went out, he would naturally be saved.I think what he said is right, after all, he is too old to withstand such a toss, and if he doesn't save more physical strength now, I'm afraid he won't be able to get out at that time.After weighing the pros and cons, I nodded and agreed to him, and told him to come back to help as soon as I found a way out.In this way, I left the old man's house and went alone to find a way out, and it was not long before I made an even more unexpected discovery.When I climbed out of the puddle, I found that the edge of the puddle was obviously polished, so I deduced that it should be a dungeon building.In fact, it is not an accident to find such a place in the old mansion of the Ji family, because there was the same building in the old mansion of the Hua family before, which shows that the old mansion of the Ji family is as ancient and mysterious as the old mansion of the Hua family.After coming out of the water depression, the flow speed of the underground river increased significantly, and the terrain also went all the way down to the outside of the village.Because it was too dark around me, I also groped my way through, and after walking for about ten minutes, the ground beneath my feet suddenly began to flatten out, and an extremely neat stone path appeared.I've always been overly curious, and after discovering that there was a lot of writing at the bottom of the well, I couldn't suppress my curiosity and tried to uncover more secrets.However, I didn't know at all, there were far more secrets under the Ji family's old mansion than the Hua family's old mansion, just after I successfully passed through the stone road, a stone gate about three meters high blocked the way, but fortunately, this stone door was half-hidden, which means that someone had been here before.The inside of the stone gate is larger, and there are all kinds of stone furnishings inside, although the surface of these furnishings is covered with plaster, but I can guess that this place was once inhabited and that it is a secret place.At the beginning, Ji Benlu and Miki were arguing, and others were not allowed to be around at all, so few people knew what they were talking about.And this place is so hidden, could it be the place where Ji Benlu and Miki discussed the Tao in the first place, if so, then there must be clues left by history here.Gradually, I found more discoveries in my eyes, and there were indeed horse lamps and pen, ink and paper on the stone table in this secret room, but they were rusty and rotten because of the passage of time, so I could only know that there were people here, but I didn't know if it was where Ji Benlu and Miki were located.This place has been deserted for at least nearly a hundred years, and this time is roughly the same as the time when the Ji family had an accident, because I basically didn't find anything in the secret room, so my goal turned to continue to find a way out, and I think that such a place where people often came before must have a secret passage to communicate with the outside, otherwise it would be too difficult to come down from the well every time I came in.I followed the walls of the secret room, and soon I found that there was a lamp pit on the wall, and the fuel in the brazier was still covered with dust, and after piercing the thin layer of dust, I also smelled a smell of diesel, but the smell was fleeting, and it was impossible to ignite it.I reached out and tried to move on, but I felt something that looked like a matchbox, picked it up and carefully discerned it, and realized that it was not actually a matchbox, but two flints made of damp ash glued together.I found that this flint was much better than the folklore, so I carefully put it in my pocket for the next time I could use it, and I also felt the wall to find other braziers, and found more of them.While cleaning the plaster on the flint, I was still thinking about a question, that is, Ji Benlu's age was in the middle of the Republic of China, at that time there were already high-tech such as electric lights and generators in China, but why such ancient lighting objects are still used here?

These old-fashioned things were incompatible with the scientific and technological culture of the time, and it is said that Ji Benlu, who was ahead of his time, would not keep these old things.But the reality is like this, none of the old things have been thrown away, so I guess either Ji Benlu is very nostalgic, or everything here is very important.Stone objects are usually bulky, and to move them you have to use ingenuity, i.e., special means such as mechanisms.When I was in the Oniki Hall, I had seen how Hua Lao searched for and figured out where the mechanism was, so at this time, I also groped around the stone tables and other fixed furnishings one by one, hoping to find any mechanism.But after touching it for a long time, I didn't find any mechanism at all, except for more dust on my hands, and I was a little stunned, so I simply sat on the stone chair in front of the stone table.But it didn't matter, and before my ass could touch the cold stone chair, I suddenly realized that I had touched something soft.chatert1706231537:
