Almost simultaneously, a sound like a baby’s cry came from below the hole, the sound was extremely shrill. Wu Caijun felt his hair stand on end, as if his entire body was covered in goosebumps.
In the faint light, he saw a shadow move twice below, and a cold wind seemed to blow over.
Wu Caijun had never seen such a scene before.
Just moments later, Wu Caijun crawled out to the ground, but oddly, the flashlight was working and when asked, the people above said they had not heard any sound.
Ye Guichen also knew what happened next. That night, Wu Caijun developed a rash of snake-like bites. If it weren’t for Ye Guichen, it wouldn’t have been long before he scratched himself to death.
"Benefactor, this matter is too strange, I, I know no one would believe it if I told them, and I was also afraid of angering the gods, so I didn’t dare to speak of it." Wu Caijun looked at Ye Guichen fearfully, as if he suddenly remembered something and hurriedly asked: "Benefactor, you, you wouldn’t be interested in what’s down there, would you?"
Ye Guichen smiled slightly and nodded: "That’s right."
"What?" Wu Caijun exclaimed: "You mean, you’re going down there?"
"But, but what’s down there, even if it’s not a god, it’s definitely not something an ordinary person can handle. If you go down and something happens, I, I would feel guilty."
Ye Guichen smiled, patted Wu Caijun’s shoulder: "Our meeting can be considered fate. If the things below are not dealt with, how can you proceed with the demolition here? If I’m not mistaken, you were lucky you didn’t go further down, otherwise, the snake rash would have been the least of your worries."
At this point, Ye Guichen glanced at the Land God Temple and said meaningfully: "Moreover, if the demolition continues, someone may die."
"Ah? Then, what should we do?" Wu Caijun, now full of admiration for Ye Guichen, revered his words as if they were from a deity, and felt completely lost at his words.
Ye Guichen looked at the sky, the sun was setting, and it was nearing dusk.
He had already arranged with Black Panther to distribute the demolition funds to the villagers today and to move the Land God Temple early tomorrow morning.
If the things below the Land God Temple are not removed tonight, someone will surely die tomorrow.
It seems I must go down there tonight to have a look.
However, based on Wu Caijun’s description, Ye Guichen felt that it was probably more than just a Two-headed Snake down there.
At least, according to Ye Guichen’s knowledge, the Two-headed Snake wouldn’t make a sound like a baby’s cry.
Could there be something else hidden below?
"I will come again tonight, and then I will go down to have a look," said Ye Guichen.
"Then, then I will help you." Wu Caijun, though a bit scared, was equally curious about what lay below.
Human nature is such; the more unknown something is, the more curiosity it evokes.
As the saying goes, curiosity killed the cat, and it’s not just idle talk.
Around ten in the evening, Ye Guichen returned to the Land God Temple in the village again.
To Ye Guichen’s surprise, not only was Wu Caijun there waiting, but there was also a burly man.
When Wu Caijun saw Ye Guichen arriving, he quickly approached: "Benefactor, this is my little brother, Wu Sandao. He may not have many skills, but he’s a butcher. I called him in case we encounter something dirty, he can fend off some of the Evil Qi for you."
