When Qin Shaoyang asked this question, none of the senior sisters acted on their own; they all immediately looked at Ye Liang.
They'll definitely do whatever Ye Liang tells them to do.
The senior sisters were waiting for him to make a decision on this matter, and Ye Liang readily offered his advice: "Getting on our way is the priority. Right now, it's important to arrive in Songcheng on time. The matter of our junior sister is more pressing."
Upon hearing Ye Liang's words, the senior sisters immediately agreed, feeling that it was more important to hurry on their journey and reach Song City as soon as possible to see their junior sister, Song Yuxi.
They really couldn't bear to keep their junior sister Song Yuxi waiting for too long.
Only Qin Shaoyang was a little reluctant. Ye Liang knew that he was worried about not having all the equipment he needed, so he wanted to fight more Beast Kings to get all the equipment as soon as possible.
Once you understand this, a few words of comfort will make everything alright.
Therefore, it was decided that we should hurry on our way and leave this abandoned ancient well first.
After walking a distance, the once calm and abandoned well suddenly swelled with water, overflowing its edge and spilling onto the ground before receding.
As the well water surged and plummeted, one after another, enormous pink tentacles emerged.
Each of the giant tentacles has huge suckers, like the tentacles of an octopus.
These enormous tentacles danced across the ground, quickly engulfing the corpse of the ferocious fish king before retreating back into the ancient well. After ripples, the surface of the well returned to calm.
"What is this thing! It's so scary! It's terrifying!" On the nearby earthen slope, Ye Liang, along with his senior sisters and Qin Shaoyang, saw all of this clearly.
When Qin Shaoyang asked this question, Ye Liang looked at Qin Shaoyang with a slightly puzzled expression and said, "You've never eaten octopus before?"
"No!" Qin Shaoyang replied somewhat apologetically.
Ye Liang then remembered that seafood was very rare in the inland areas of this world.
Qin Shaoyang had never seen a giant octopus, which only exists in the sea, so it's not his fault.
Ye Liang then said to him, "I've only ever seen octopuses of normal size. This is the first time I've seen one this big. I don't know how an octopus that should live in the sea could be found in this ancient well."
"It seems this abandoned ancient well is indeed strange." Senior Sister Qi Xue already looked somewhat worried. She had a feeling that this ancient well had a sinister quality that could devour human lives, and that in the future, it would surely attract many spiritual cultivators to investigate, and in the end, many spiritual cultivators would surely die here.
That's terrible.
"It's Ye Liang who's right. He guessed that once we left, the strange creature in the well would come out on its own. That's why he led us away and then looked back specifically to see the other big guy hiding in the well. This guy is probably even bigger and more powerful than that ferocious fish king!" The junior sister praised Ye Liang while also marveling at the terror and dread of the octopus king.
Second Senior Sister thought so too. "Those tentacles are truly agile and terrifying. Although we haven't seen its whole body, just looking at those tentacles, baring their fangs and claws, makes it seem like it would be difficult to deal with."
"Yes, yes. Who would have thought that this seemingly ordinary place would have such a strange, abandoned ancient well?" Wei Wenshi was also puzzled and found the matter eerie.
Ye Liang thought so too, so he said, "Yes, this abandoned ancient well is strange, and there's probably more to it than meets the eye. Let's take a special trip to see it when we have the chance. For today, let's leave it alone. Let's cut down a tree, put up a sign, and tell passersby not to go to the ancient well to fetch water. If they do, they probably won't come back."
"So, this abandoned ancient well must have swallowed up countless passersby. There must have been people who didn't know the situation here, came to fetch water, and then never returned." The eldest sister felt a little sad at the thought.
Knowing his senior sisters were kind-hearted and felt sorry for those who had been swallowed by the strange beasts dwelling in the ancient well, unaware of the dangers, Ye Liang could only comfort them, saying, "There's nothing we can do about it. Today, Brother Qin was lucky not to be swept away by the beasts in the well; otherwise, I really wouldn't know how to explain it to Master. From now on, I'll do the fetching of water. It seems the outside world is more dangerous than I imagined. How could I have known that such a seemingly ordinary, abandoned well held so much secrets?"
Hearing Ye Liang's words, Qin Shaoyang immediately said with a mixture of joy and bitterness, "I don't know if discovering this abandoned ancient well was good luck or bad luck. Although we've gained something, it's also a bit frightening. No wonder this place gives off such a gloomy and terrifying feeling. Sigh, never mind, let's do as Brother Ye says. Let's cut down a tree and make a sign to warn future passersby not to go near here. We'll save as many as we can. Only when Brother Ye has time to come and thoroughly investigate the mystery of this ancient well can this place truly be safe."
These words immediately caused the junior sister to roll her eyes and say, "You certainly know how to arrange things for Ye Liang. Is it because you want to come along to fight the Beast King?"
"Hehe, hehe!" Having his true thoughts exposed by his junior sister, Qin Shaoyang didn't dare to talk back. He just chuckled and chopped down the tree to make a sign.
He chopped down a sturdy tree by the roadside, peeled away part of the bark and core with a single stroke, and carved words on the flat surface to warn future generations that there was a dangerous, man-eating spirit beast in the abandoned ancient well. This sturdy and durable danger warning sign was thus completed.
After finishing the task, Ye Liangcai returned with his senior sisters, relieved.
Back at the camp, Master was holding his own child and leading Ye Leng, Ye Xing, and the other four children, who were already waiting for Ye Liang and the others to return.
