Dali Temple Conspiracy Records

The dry well was about seven or eight feet deep and more than two feet wide. The walls of the well were fixed with blue bricks, so it didn't take much effort to dig it.Everyone worked together to dig it open. Of course, there was no corpse in the well, only a puddle of slightly wet mud at the bottom.

The shopkeeper and Xiao Wu didn't know whether they should let go of their hanging hearts.

Li Quan said, "Is there a sieve? Dig out the mud and pass it through."

"Hey, okay."

A group of people took the sieve and flushed the water, but Bai Sanxiu wandered around the dug hole.

"Huiming!"

"Well, what's the matter? Be careful."

Bai Sanxiu took Li Quan's men to the middle of the pit, and pointed somewhere: "Do you think this is a root?"

But I saw a cluster of withered and black roots exposed in the wet soil that was dug loose.

Li Quan also jumped down in two or three steps, "It really is. And it looks like it should be a tree root."

"But there is no tree by this well."

The two returned to the ground and looked in the direction of the roots of the tree. It was a wild forest at the foot of the back mountain.This piece of vegetation was not very lush, and they soon noticed a half-blackened dead tree stump near the edge of the forest.

Li Quan called a few people to dig out the roots of the tree, and called the shopkeeper to ask, "Do you have any impression of this tree?"

The shopkeeper didn't think too much, and said: "Yes! If the adults ask anything else, the villain really doesn't have an impression. This tree has a deep impression! It was two years after my guest house was built, there was a thunderstorm on Dayue Mountain, Then it happened that a lightning strike struck the tree, and it caught fire and died on the spot.”

"Is that the 'scourge' you mentioned?"

"My lord knows! Yes, yes, that was the time. At that time, there was lightning and thunder, which scared me to death. I really thought it was going to landslide!"

During the conversation, the mud sifting also made progress, and someone exclaimed: "What is this?"

Li Quan and Bai Sanxiu walked over to have a look, and sifted out some bits and pieces of debris from the washed mud, most of which were spoiled due to the long-term soaking, but there were still some things that could be discerned.

Tremella pendants, blackened fabric fragments, clothing ornaments, and gold-encrusted teeth...

Everyone thought of that possibility at the same time, and the timid ones immediately backed away in fright.

"This... this can't be, this well cannibalize people?"

"Otherwise, where did these things come from? It turns out that all the missing people in the inn have been swallowed by this strange well!"

"My mother is so scary, there are only a few parts left, and they are so clean..."

"I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it..."

"But how did they get in? Hasn't this well been sealed for many years?"

Li Yu asked the shopkeeper, "Does Chen Youtian and his wife know about this well?"

The shopkeeper was already in a cold sweat from fright, and he wiped his temples and said, "You should know, right? They are regular customers of the shop and have been here for almost three years."

Everyone was still talking about the man-eating well, and the root direction of the half tree stump was basically dug out.

Sure enough, the root system of this stake was very developed, extending all the way to the well.In addition to the ones that can be clearly identified as tree roots, there are also a lot of soft whiskers entangled around it.

Now these gray-black roots have shriveled up, and it seems that they have been dead for a long time, but Bai Sanxiu bent down and broke off a thicker main pole, and when he looked closely, he could find that the circle near the outer skin still showed a very light green color. .In other words, after more than 20 years, the tree has not completely died.

"Master Li, what happened to this, this tree? Is it related to that 'scourge'?" The shopkeeper asked cautiously.

Li Quan only said: "Dig it out and burn it. After the fire, the evil will be wiped out, so you don't have to worry about it."

"Really?! Thank you, sir, for your advice, thank you, sir!" For the first time in a few days, the shopkeeper showed joy.

After a while, thick smoke rose from the open space, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.He felt that since the well was dug and the tree was burned, everything would be fine now. Only Li Quan and Bai Sanxiu stood aside, staring at the flames, their thoughts sinking.

Obviously, this stump is also one of the branches of the immortal tree.

How many branches like this are there in Dayue Mountain?
