Chapter 1670 The Strange Ancient Well

"My little aunt, you don't want to eat this, and you don't want to eat that. You are so picky that you will starve to death sooner or later." Zhou Wen was depressed, but he didn't say this to the demon baby. He just thought about it in his mind.

"Little baby, do you want to eat anything?" Zhou Wen squatted in front of the demon baby and asked while touching her head.

The demon baby thought for a moment, then turned around and walked outside. Zhou Wen quickly followed him. He hadn't been out for many days, and after walking out of the room, he felt the sunlight was a little dazzling.

Zhou Wen lived in a courtyard house in the northwest corner of the ancient city. Courtyard houses like this were everywhere in the Guide ancient city and were not very conspicuous. In fact, there were many courtyard houses larger than this one.

As the current owner of the ancient city, Zhou Wen could have chosen a better place. The reason he didn't do so was because this seemingly unremarkable courtyard house actually had something unique.

Almost every building in the ancient city is an independent small space. Zhou Wen has explored most of the buildings, and there are only a few places where he has not found a way to enter.

There is currently no way to enter places like the City God Temple, the Bell Tower, and some strange large courtyards. Although this small courtyard can be entered, there are some strange and bizarre things going on, and Zhou Wen still hasn't figured it out.

He lived here, on the one hand, to explore the secrets of the courtyard, and on the other hand, because he was afraid that something might happen here, so that he could suppress it in time if something really happened.

The yard is not big and the building itself does not have anything special about it, but there is a well in the yard. On special days, you can hear the sound of spring water bubbling in the well.

The sound of water in a well seems normal. It is not surprising that some running water wells or wells with underground springs have the sound of water.

In fact, even if there were some dimensional creatures in the well making noises, it wouldn't be a strange thing.

The strange thing about this well is that there is no water in it. It is a bit strange that you can often hear the sound of water in a well without water in the middle of the night.

Zhou Wen had also sent his companion pet to explore, but found nothing. This ancient well was not very deep. Zhou Wen could see the bottom at a glance. The bottom was all dry soil that had been buried for years. There was no moisture at all, let alone water.

Every time there was a sound of water, Zhou Wen looked down from the well mouth, and the result was always the same. He could only see the mud at the bottom of the well, but no trace of water.

But the sound of water surging like a spring was flowing clearly in his ears. Not only Zhou Wen, but everyone who walked into the courtyard could hear it.

Zhou Wen had also dug at the bottom of the well, but no matter how deep he dug, he found nothing. Moreover, the soil he dug out would disappear after a while, and the hole dug in the well would return to its original appearance, as if it had never been moved.

How could Zhou Wen feel at ease with such a strange ancient well in such a house? He could only live here alone so that if any problems arose, they could be dealt with in time.

However, during this period of time, although there were often sounds of water coming from the ancient well in the middle of the night, there were no other unusual phenomena, so Zhou Wen did not deliberately study the ancient well recently.

After the demon baby came out of the house, it went straight to the ancient well, jumped onto the edge of the well, and stretched its head to look into the well.

After watching for a while, the demon baby raised its head and looked at Zhou Wen again. It pointed the demon sword in one hand towards the ancient well and said, "Down below."

"There is nothing under this ancient well. I dug thousands of meters deep and saw nothing." Zhou Wen said as he came to the ancient well and looked inside. He knew that the demon baby would not act without a purpose.

Just like before, you can see the bottom of the well at a glance, and there is nothing underneath.

The demon baby lowered its head and looked into the well again. After a while, it suddenly said, "The thing is right down there."

"Where?" Zhou Wen concentrated his eyesight and even summoned the Dark Doctor to merge with himself. He used his ability of perspective to look down, but still saw nothing.

The demon baby frowned and thought, as if he didn't know how to explain. After pondering for a moment, he suddenly reached out and took off the suona from his waist.

Most companion pets don't use weapons. Even if some do, they are innate weapons. But the demon baby is different. The weapons on her are basically taken from others.

The magic sword, the sky-covering bell and the suona were all snatched away, but apart from the magic sword, the demon baby rarely used the sky-covering bell and the suona.

The demon baby put the suona in front of its mouth, its cheeks puffed up, and it wanted to blow the suona.

"Stop blowing!" Zhou Wen was startled and quickly reached out to hug the demon baby, and covered her little mouth with the other hand to prevent her from blowing out the air.

When the suona sounds, it either brings joy or sorrow. Zhou Wen can resist the magic of the suona, but so many ordinary people in the ancient city of Guide may not be able to resist it.

If the whole city were to mourn, that would not be good.

Zhou Wen covered the demon baby's mouth, and the air in its mouth could not come out, causing its cheeks to bulge and its big eyes to stare wide open.

Reaching out to pull away the hand covering his mouth, the demon baby exhaled, staring at Zhou Wen and saying, "Don't blow... the stuff down there won't come out..."

"What's down there?" Zhou Wen really couldn't tell what was down there. He was really curious and asked, staring into the demon baby's eyes.

"Food." The demon baby answered with certainty.

"What kind of food?" Zhou Wen almost vomited blood, so he had to continue asking patiently.

"I don't know, it's just food." The demon baby answered very straightforwardly.

Zhou Wen felt depressed, but he knew he couldn't get any more information out of it. He pointed at the suona in the demon baby's little hand and said, "You can play this thing, but is there any way to prevent the sound from affecting other people in the city?"

"Okay." The demon baby tilted his head and thought for a while before nodding in response.

Zhou Wen breathed a sigh of relief and then let go of the demon baby: "Go ahead, I also want to know what is in this ancient well."

The demon baby put the suona to his lips again, puffed up his cheeks and blew hard.

The high-pitched sound of the suona is like a thunderclap, penetrating directly into the soul, as if it wants to take away the soul of the person.

thump!

Zhou Wen's legs went weak and he knelt on the ground. The tears in his eyes fell one after another like pearls.

"Oh my god, didn't you say you wouldn't affect other people?" Zhou Wen's words turned into tears. He struggled to stand up, but he couldn't.

"There's no one else here." The demon baby's voice sounded directly in Zhou Wen's mind, while her mouth was still playing the suona.

The devilish and desolate sound kept reaching Zhou Wen's ears, causing his tears to keep falling. The tears he had shed in his entire life were more than that in an instant.

Zhou Wen wanted to say something, but he heard the sound of water flowing in the ancient well.

The sound of water in the ancient well usually occurs at night, but this is the first time it has appeared in broad daylight.

Happy New Year! Thanks to the three leaders of "夜伴无眠" who gave me rewards. I have been off for such a long time, but there are still friends who are so supportive and tolerant that I feel ashamed. When I recover a little, I will definitely work hard to update more.
