C46 (1/2)
”Stop …”
When I realised that it was already too late, that brazen young man had already touched the water in the well and was holding it in his hands. After a brief glance, he immediately poured the water on his face.
F * ck, this fellow was washing his face. I immediately walked over in anger and kicked his butt. ”You brat, are you tired of living? Did you not hear what I just said?”
The remaining three young men hurriedly advised me, ”Little Heavenly Master, don't be angry. It's like this for the first time. He still insists on doing what others don't want him to do. We should really talk to the village head and not let him follow us.”
After getting up, he scolded the three young men, ”All of you, scram to the side. I was brave just now, but I'm not a fool. If there's really something wrong with the well water, I won't touch it.”
When this fellow saw me glaring at him viciously, he quickly changed his face and said smilingly: ”However, Little Heavenly Master, you are right. We still need to be extra careful, hehe.”
He's just a young man who hasn't seen much of the world. Although I'm not that old, I've seen a lot of things, and I've seen a lot of things. Naturally, I can't compare to a few sixteen or seventeen years old youngsters.
I exhaled and said to him, ”Gangzi, how do you feel now?”
”I don't feel anything. Washing my face with icy cold water, I wonder how refreshing it is.” As he spoke, he looked as if nothing had happened to him.
I threw him a piece of cloth and shook my head. ”Hurry up and wipe your face. I'll seriously tell you once again, don't touch anything.”
”Yes, I don't dare anymore.” Gangzi rubbed his butt that I kicked as he spoke.
After we touched the water in the well, I observed him for a while and didn't find anything strange. This meant that there was nothing wrong with the water in the well, but why was the water flowing out red all the time?
This didn't make any sense. Even if there were red rocks at the bottom of the well, after a day and a night of scouring, the red pigment inside the rocks had long since disappeared.
I thought for a moment and told the others, ”Stop messing around. Hurry over and dig up the well.”
Without a second word, the group began to work around the well with the shovels, pickaxes, and other tools they had brought along with them. All this time, I had been secretly observing Liu San's reaction. He had lowered his head to think about something, but when I was about to dig open the well, he suddenly raised his head and looked over.
While the four of us were busy, Qing Qing and I walked in front of Liu San. We stood in front of him without asking anything, only using our eyes to look at him.
Liu San quickly grew uncomfortable again, glancing at me with a forced smile as he lowered his head and asked, ”Little Master, do you have anything else to ask?”
I pursed my lips and said in a calm tone, ”Liu San, at this time, if you still know anything, just say it. Once the well is dug up, then some bad things will happen.
”No, I really have nothing else to say.”
