Aye Ghost King immediately opened his mouth to reply, but just as the words were on his lips, he was suddenly interrupted by a cold voice, "Xiao Meng, come over here and take a look at the room we're staying in tonight!"
Zhang Meng immediately turned around and responded to him, "Okay."
He ran over. Aye Ghost King opened his mouth, but suddenly received a sharp warning look, which made him stiffen instantly.
When he raised his head and wanted to look directly into that gaze, the owner of the gaze had already led Zhang Meng into one of the rooms in front.
That night, because the young couple slept in their own room, they hugged each other tightly and slept with sweet dreams.
the next day.
The group had a simple sweet potato meal and then went to see the village chief, He.
This time, Village Chief He was very welcoming to their group, pouring them water and inviting them to dinner.
But none of these are as important as the jade beads they are looking for.
Youhui politely declined Village Chief He's kindness and directly pointed out that they wanted to visit the ancient well.
Village Chief He immediately smiled and nodded, "Okay, I'll take you to the ancient well in our village."
Village chief He led them out of the house and walked for nearly ten minutes before stopping beside a shady ancient well.
I don’t know if it’s because it’s cold this morning, but steam is still coming out of this ancient well.
"This is the ancient well you're going to visit, reporter. Let me tell you, this ancient well is a treasure of our village. Even during the severe drought a few days ago, the water in this well never dried up. It's because of it that no one in our village has died of thirst."
Zhang Meng could tell that when Village Chief He mentioned this ancient well, the admiration in his eyes was blinding.
You Hui walked over and took a few glances into the well. His expression changed several times, and when he looked up at Village Chief He, he was polite again. "I didn't expect this ancient well has so many legends. I must listen to your detailed story later. I'd also like to take a picture of you and this ancient well. Is that okay with you?"
Village Chief He's eyes lit up, and he looked at Youhui excitedly and asked, "Comrade You, if I take a photo of this, can it be published in the newspaper? Then comrades all over the country can see me, right?"
You Hui smiled and nodded, "That's right, our provincial capital's newspaper is nationwide, so the things we publish are naturally sold nationwide. Even people in Beijing have read our newspaper."
"That's great. Then, when do we start taking the photos?"
You Hui laughed and waved his hand, saying, "Don't worry, let's first learn about the origin and history of this ancient well. When we're done, we can take this photo."
Youhui winked at Zhang Meng and the others, then he took Village Chief He and quietly left the ancient well.
As soon as Youhui took the person away, Zhang Meng and others present immediately gathered around the ancient well and began to study it.
Youwu took out the jade pendant and put it into the ancient well. After a while, the jade pendant on his hand lit up.
"There really are jade beads here!" Youwu happily told everyone.
Aye Ghost King immediately revealed his ghost form and curled his lips. "Could it be possible that the place I, Aye Ghost King, am looking for is wrong?"
Zhang Meng ignored his awkwardness and put her hand to the bottom of the well. She said in surprise, "The steam coming out of this well is still hot, just like taking a hot spring bath. It's amazing."
Youwu nodded and said, "Maybe it has something to do with the Jade Bead. If we take the Jade Bead away, won't this ancient well become just an ordinary well?"
Zhang Meng patted him on the shoulder and said, "Comrade Youwu, you can't have your cake and eat it too. If you gain something, you lose something. Just relax."
Without waiting for him to speak, Zhang Meng walked over to Gu Mingtai, who was walking around the well, and asked curiously, "How is it going? Did you find anything?"
Gu Mingtai pursed his lips, took her hand and said, "Go back first."
Zhang Meng nodded, and the young couple left them and went back to their residence first.
The Ghost King Aye was so angry that he was emitting ghost gas when he saw the two of them leaving him alone here.
At noon, everyone gathered together again and talked about the news they had heard from various places.
"According to Village Chief He, this ancient well has another amazing feature: drinking the water from it can improve your health. People in this village rarely get sick."
You Hui told the news he had heard.
"Then when are we going to the ancient well to get the jade bead out?" Zhang Meng asked.
"I looked around the well today. There's a secret cave next to the ancient well. If we want to go down to the well, we can go down through that secret cave."
"So this is the secret you discovered today." Zhang Meng looked at him happily.
She secretly pinched the back of the man's hand next to her. No wonder the man kept his mouth shut despite her trying to coax him for such a long time. It turned out that he wanted to give her a surprise.
Gu Mingtai smiled and gently held her hand. You Hui immediately said happily, "That's great. Now we don't have to figure out how to get down the well."
Zhang Meng suddenly frowned and looked at Youhui in confusion. "Comrade Youhui, didn't you say that people from Country D were trying to steal our Jade Beads? How come we've had such a smooth journey without encountering any obstacles? Are you sure this news is true?"
You Hui frowned, "I don't know what's going on, but I can tell you with certainty that this news is absolutely true. A foreign friend of my master secretly wrote to him."
