The moonlight was clear, illuminating every intricately carved beauty in the courtyard, and also illuminating the neat figure by the well, where Hua Gu was climbing into the well along a soft ladder, standing waist-high in the water, groping for something on the wall of the well.
The walls of the well were covered with moss, and her hands were slippery to the touch, but she didn't seem to care, and she carefully touched the bricks one by one, as if she was afraid of missing something most important.
But after groping for it several times, except for the moss on his hands, he still found nothing.
After all, it had been so long that she almost thought she would never use it for the rest of her life, so she was so careless and naïve that she took the reins of her life as a life-saving straw and threw herself into the net.
Her fingers suddenly touched a groove, and she was overjoyed, and she leaned into it, and inside was a round pebble, and when her fingertips touched it, the two bricks next to the groove slowly moved to the sides, revealing a black thing embedded in the middle of the brick joint.
Hua Gu's heart moved suddenly, and she reached out to grab the thing, but at this moment, a dark shadow flashed at the mouth of the well above, and the moonlight dimmed for a moment, and the inside of the well was lit again.
"Who?"
Hua Gu blurted out this word, she was too nervous, so her voice was several times louder than usual, and she bounced back against the wall of the well, and scared herself out of sweat again.
No one answered her, and Hua Gu stood in the water, picking at the slippery wall of the well with one hand, and slowly wrapping around behind her with the other, pulling the knife from her waist.
A pair of eagle-like eyes stared closely at the entrance of the cave, and she decided that no matter who appeared in a moment, she would throw this knife first, even if she accidentally injured her own people, it didn't matter.
However, no one appeared at the mouth of the well, but the moon gradually traveled elsewhere, and no longer filled the well with moonlight selflessly.
"Wellspring Boy?"
It's just an instant, these four words popped out of Aunt Hua's mind, but this thought was quickly dispelled by herself: even if the things of the previous day were not done by Xin'an Mansion, it must have been done by others, but no matter what, the paper horse killing is fake, and since it is fake, it is even more impossible to bring back any Jingquan boy.
Although she had met him in front of the well, it was probably just someone's ploy.
But despite her thoughts, the movement of her hands revealed her weakness, and instead of taking it out, she put the two bricks together again, and stared at the dark edge of the well again.
Yes, she doesn't believe in anyone now, the only thing she can rely on and believe in is this thing, so before everything settles, she must protect it, it is her life, if she loses it, there is only a dead end left in front of her.
There was still no movement at the mouth of the well, but Hua Gu was still not at ease, she waited in the well for about half an hour, and her legs were numb, so she climbed up the soft ladder.
The head poked out of the wellhead little by little, and she looked back and forth, left and right, and did not let go of any corner.
There are no people, not to mention people, there is even a trace of wind, and the entire backyard is now like a barren mound, and there is no smell of the breath of the living.
Hua Gu settled down, took a few deep breaths, and climbed down the soft ladder again, this time, she was familiar with the road, and without much effort, she found the pebble, opened the two closed bricks, and grabbed the thing out of the dark wall of the well.
It was a tight, small burden wrapped in animal skins, thin and weightless.
However, in Hua Gu's heart, it is more valuable than ten thousand taels of gold.
Fingers gently rubbed on the animal skin for a while, she sighed heavily, "Don't blame me, with his power, who dares to disobey his orders, besides, at the beginning, you were also picked by him, even if the grudge is deep, it has nothing to do with me, don't find the wrong person." ” The burden seemed to move, and then there was a cry circling in the well, the slightest bit, like a ghostly whisper, very desolate.
Hua Gu hurriedly folded her hands and bowed to the west, "I am here today to bring your grievances to the light, you can rest assured, as long as this thing comes out, no matter how big the power behind him is, I am afraid that it will not be able to go against the will of the people, and when the time comes, you will be able to show the snow." ” The cry gradually disappeared, as if seeping into the wall, and Hua Gu exhaled, hurriedly tucked the burden into her sleeve, grabbed the soft ladder with both hands, and jumped up with a leap of her body.
Seeing that she was about to reach the mouth of the well, she grabbed the edge of the well with both hands and climbed up with one leg, but at this moment, the sleeve suddenly lightened, and the burden was taken away by a person who had been waiting at the mouth of the well for a long time.
Hua Gu felt that the blood all over her body was cold, and her body was stiff and frightening, and she crawled out of the well in an awkward position, and looked at the figure standing under the moonlight in amazement.
It was a half-grown child, naked, water oozing down every pore and dripping to his feet.
He had short neck-length black hair, and his face and pupils were white and shiny, and in the moonlight, a silver halo emanated.
"Izumi Boy Boy" After stammering these four words, she slapped her left and right cheeks sharply, this is not a dream, why, he is here again, and he is still standing in the scorching moonlight, showing her every part of his body.
"Jingquan Boy" held the package in his left hand, and his right hand effortlessly pulled the tightly wrapped rope on it, and took out the contents of it, he took the thin booklet back and forth, and at the end, suddenly clapped his hands and smiled: "It's it, it's in vain, it's not in vain that I spent so much effort to finally find it." ” Hua Gu pondered this sentence several times in her mind, but she still couldn't figure it out, she suddenly stopped being afraid, and muttered in her mouth, "What do you want this thing for?"
” "What to do?
I don't know, I do what my girl tells me to do. ” The tone of the "Jingquan Boy" has also changed, no longer gloomy and low, but crisp and tender, like a teenager who has not changed his voice.
This voice seems to have been heard by Aunt Hua somewhere, it is very familiar, but she still can't remember who the owner of the voice is?
At the same time, the appearance of the "Jingquan Boy" also changed, and a layer of silver hair grew around his body, and his fingers became long and pointed, curled up slightly.
Even behind him, a thick silver tail grew, like a huge monkey.
But do monkeys have three eyes?
The birch girl stared at it, and saw that the center of its eyebrows slowly cracked, revealing the dark and shiny spiritual eye inside.
