"Shen Ta, what are you doing with the rope?"

Looking at my terrified expression, Shen Tuo was puzzled. He even smiled evilly as he started to untie the rope. I became even more terrified until one of Zi Sang Ming's hands embraced my waist.

"What else can we do? Go down the well!" I say, Yan Nuo, did you get bitten by a snake when you were a kid? "

Shen Tuo said as he walked towards the entrance of the well. It was only after a long time that I understood what he meant. I also started to feel glad that I wasn't stupid enough to ask Shen Tuo why he said he had been bitten by a snake.

Actually, what I wanted to tell him was not the rope, but him.

I gradually overcome my fear and put my hand on the hand that Zishan Ming was holding me with. With a symbolic push, Zishan Ming withdrew his hand and I walked over to Shen Ta, trying to help.

When I walked over and pulled on the rope, Shen Tuo unconsciously let out a slight groan. I looked over and found that there was still some blood on his wrist and ankle. The scabbed wound also seemed to be bleeding from overexertion.

Shen Ta can't just randomly use his strength anymore. While thinking about this, I completely took the rope from Shen Tuo: "You stay up there, I'll go down."

On one side, Shen Tuo felt that it would be very difficult for him to continue acting like this, while on the other side, he was worried that a girl would go down to search for the corpse by herself. At the same time, Sang Ming stood silently at the side, but he was frowning and seemed to be deep in thought.

"I'll go down. I'm a doctor, what's there to be afraid of?"

I pretended not to care and tried to convince Shen Ta.

At this moment, Zi Sang Ming suddenly walked over. "Let Yan Nuo go down. I feel that there's no danger down there."

When Zishan Ming said this, he unexpectedly hesitated. I originally thought that he was worried about me, but Shen Ta understood what he meant before I did: "What, do you have any questions for me? Or did you sense something else? "

Zi Sang Ming's brows did not open up. He forcefully shook my hand and said in a heavy tone, "If there is any danger, I don't think it's strange. But it's strange that there isn't any movement down there. There doesn't seem to be a corpse."

I finally understood that Zi Sang Ming had been silent from the beginning because he didn't feel any danger.

I was relieved to hear that there was no danger below, and as I tied a rope around my waist, I said to them both, "I'll tie the other end of the rope to the big rock, and then you can put me down bit by bit. Shen Ta, don't force me when you're injured."

After finishing my preparations, I took a deep breath and walked towards the mouth of the well.

It wasn't until my entire body sank into the well that I felt a tinge of regret. Although the well had dried up, the wall could still exude water, so the well was covered with moss. I kicked with all my might, but not only did I not use any of my strength, I actually dropped a huge chunk due to excessive force.

I didn't dare to easily try again, so I held onto the rope tightly with both of my hands and patiently waited for Shen Tuo and Zi Sang Ming to loosen the rope bit by bit, slowly bringing me to the bottom.

Feeling that my feet had stepped on solid ground, I forcefully pulled on the rope and shouted towards the top, "Hey! I've finally reached the end!" When I felt the rope loosen around me, I knew they had heard me.

However, as I shouted, the walls of the well seemed to resonate with me, and my voice actually reverberated around the well.

I desperately pulled on the rope, as if I was putting all my courage onto this rope. Afterwards, I started to look around to observe my surroundings.

This place is similar to what we saw on top of it. The scattered dry grass already gave off a rotten smell from being in the water for a long time, but when I sniffed, I felt that there was still a faint smell of blood in this rotten smell!

I suddenly remembered the soil under my feet that could have oozed blood in Zhao Xue's illusion. I had a bad premonition, so I hastily picked up a dead branch and prepared to use it to brush away the dead grass under my feet to see if there was really a pool of blood under my feet.

However, the result was disappointing. The water under the hay was a little dirty, but there was no trace of blood. I didn't see any corpses around me, and I couldn't even find the source of the smell of blood. For a moment, I felt a little lost, not knowing what to do next.

At this moment, I suddenly noticed that the growth of the moss on the walls of the well seemed to be different. On the walls of the well on the same side, there were even places about the size of a palm.

Gradually, I was able to see some clues. I tried my best to retreat as far as possible from the walls of the well in front of me. Indeed, as I expected, these lush moss unexpectedly grew continuously!

I walked forward again and stretched out my hand to fiddle around with the lush moss. At this moment, the moss's roots actually faintly revealed bits and pieces of red! Was it because the well was made of red brick?

Then I ran my hand over the sparse sections and found that the walls of the well were actually made of stone, not brick as I had thought, and there was only one explanation for it — the red was not brick at all, but blood! This is where the smell of blood came from!

The moss must have absorbed the blood, which was why it had grown so much stronger than other places. So, this was Zhao Xue's blood?

"Yan Nuo, Yan Nuo, you should agree to it!" Seeing that I had been at the bottom of the well for so long without making a sound, Shen Tuo kept calling out my name, while I was pondering about the matter of the blood, and only now did I hear his voice.

Before I could reply, I felt the well entrance above me go dark, a stream of air swept by, and Zi Sang Ming appeared before my eyes.

"Why did you come down here? You were already weak earlier in the day, what are you trying to do!" When I saw Zi Sang's expression darken, I was actually secretly relieved. After all, in this gloomy place, when I was alone, my entire body was covered in cold sweat.

"It's fine, there's no sunlight at the bottom of the well. This King can handle it."

Saying that, Zishan Ming followed my gaze and looked at the wall of the well.

"You see, the moss here is obviously growing vigorously. I just saw it, and that's because there's blood on their roots. It's just that I still don't understand why this blood would appear on the walls of the well."

Zi Sang Ming looked at it for a while, then lowered his head as if nothing had happened and said to me, "This is a word."

What? Words?

I looked at Zishan Ming's calm face, but he didn't seem excited at all. Not only did I roll my eyes, thinking about how I would have to face such a cold monster all day, I started to worry about my future life.

However, Zi Sang Ming could be considered to have helped a lot. With his reminder, it was indeed much easier for me to look around. The dense moss had a big word on it: "Die!"

I couldn't help but shiver. 'Why would there be a word' dead 'here?'

"This is where Zhao Xue made a death wish."

Zishan Ming didn't talk much each time, but he always said the right thing.

Just now, I had been so engrossed in these mysteries that I had actually forgotten the most important task — — searching for Zhao Xue's corpse.

Since this was such a large area and Zhao Xue's corpse couldn't be seen, then it shouldn't be here. Just as I was about to remind Shen Tuo to pull me up, Zishan Ming suddenly shot out with his palm and broke through the wall behind me!

I quickly covered my mouth and nose with my hands, trying my best to avoid the dust in front of me. I didn't know how much soil behind me had caused Sang Ming to hit. Even if it was wet, there would still be some dirt!

However, when the dust gradually disappeared and I leaned out from behind Zishan Ming, the scene before my eyes surprised me. There wasn't any soil on the other side of the wall; instead, there was a passageway!

This passage was also made of stone, and it led straight inside. I used my flashlight to shine inside, but it only took a moment for me to reach the other side of the wall. It seemed that this passage was not a straight one. Instead, it was a different direction where the flashlight had stopped at.

I swallowed and looked at Zishan Ming. Zishan Ming had entered the tunnel.

I shouted upwards, "Shen Tuo, we have discovered a tunnel. Let's go in and take a look!" After that, I followed Zishan Ming into the passageway.

The tunnel was even more humid than the one I was in earlier. Droplets of water kept dripping down from the tunnel. The cold water was still dripping onto my scalp. It was as if the water had seeped into my bones, causing me to shiver.

When we reached the end of the passage, we found another entrance, a flight of stone steps, lit by a flashlight that revealed nothing but nothing but what looked like an endless staircase to hell.

I couldn't help but tug on Zishan Ming and ask softly, "If we continue walking down like this, will we reach the underworld?"

The corner of Zishan Ming's mouth curled up slightly as he moved closer to me and placed his mouth on my ear. A wave of ice-cold sensation entered my brain: "What? You want to follow me to the underworld so much?"

Zi Sang Ming's aura was so close to me, causing my face to immediately burn up. I quickly quipped, "Who wants to return to the underworld with you!? Aunt, I haven't lived long enough! "

While we were talking, Zishan Ming was the first to step onto the stairs. I quickly followed him like a dog's leg and used a flashlight to illuminate the road in front of us.

I don't know how far I walked, I was a little tired, maybe because I was walking too fast, but suddenly I slipped and fell towards Zishan's back.

Zishan Ming turned around at a speed that I couldn't see clearly and held me in his arms. He didn't wait for me to stand up; he just said, "We're here."

Following the sound, I looked inside.
