Crossing the Extreme Rampage

Chapter 080 The Secret of the Ancient Well in the Village

Xu Bao was smiling, and every time Dad received his wages, he would buy him food, and he was very kind to him, "Dad, when I grow up, I will respect you too."

Xu Yang was even happier, "Want to eat fish?"

"think."

"Let's go, Dad will take you to Xu Zhengfeng's house to buy."

"Buy two."

"it is good."

……

"Zhengfeng, are you at home?"

Xu Zhengfeng came out of the room, "What's wrong?"

Xu Yang, a tall and burly man, looked at Xu Zhengfeng and felt a bit oppressive, "Did you go catch fish in the fields today?"

Xu Zhengfeng shook his head, "I didn't catch it, I've been busy recently, so I don't have time to go."

Xu Yang was slightly disappointed, and glanced at his son, who was also quite disappointed, "I was going to buy fish from you, but I can't help it if I don't have to sell it."

Xu Zhengfeng nodded, "I didn't go to catch it, sorry."

"It's okay, come back next time."

"Ah."

Xu Zhengfeng sent the two of them out of the yard.

Xu Zhengyi looked at Xu Zhengfeng expectantly, "Brother, why don't we go catch fish now?"

Xu Zhengfeng felt a little embarrassed, "Fish can be caught, but we don't have time to sell it."

Xu Zhengyi has become more and more intelligent since he learned Chinese characters, "Brother, we don't need to sell them in the market, but just sell them at the door of our shop. Anyway, there are not many of them, and they will be sold out in a short time."

Xu Zhengfeng thought about it carefully, this idea is a good one, "Who will weigh it?"

"No need to weigh, brother, think about it, our fish weighs more than three catties and four catties. Fish weighing more than three catties are put in a bucket and put on one side, fish weighing more than four catties are put in a bucket on the other side, and fish weighing more than three catties are put in a bucket and put on the other side. It sells for 24 Wen, and if it weighs more than four catties, it sells for [-] Wen, and the price is fixed directly.”

Xu Zhengfeng patted Xu Zhengyi's shoulder lightly, "Boy, yes, smart, let's go and catch fish."

Xu Zhengyi immediately ran to get the bucket and the bamboo net, "Go, catch the fish."

Xu Zhengyu came over to get the bamboo net, "Second brother, give me this."

"Okay, here you are."

The three brothers went to the rice field together and started their plan to catch fish.

"Look, brother caught one." Xu Zhengfeng has caught so many fish, and has mastered some skills, and now he can catch fish in half the time.

Xu Zhengyu clapped his hands and cheered, "Brother, you are amazing."

Xu Tao and Xu Peng came together, "Zhengyi, are you catching fish again?"

We have played together a few times, and have established a little foundation of friendship, "Yes, we will sell it in the town tomorrow."

"I heard that you have opened a shop in the town?"

Xu Zhengyi was stunned, they hadn't mentioned it in the village, "Who did you hear that from?"

Xu Tao pointed to the village with his thumb, "It's the people in the village, everyone has spread the word."

"Was it spread?"

Xu Tao nodded, "Yes."

Are these people too big mouthed?

Since everyone is guessing, why don't you explain it clearly, lest the villagers say anything unfavorable, "We did open a store, but we only sell buns and nothing else. You can also come to the town to buy it, but it should be earlier. Otherwise it will be sold out."

"Well, we got it."

……

Tang Yuanming came back from the town and saw that the door of the house was closed, "Where did you go?"

Standing at the gate of the courtyard, I looked around and saw many people beside a certain big rice field, as well as my four animals, two lynxes and two chickens.

The four get along quite harmoniously, the two little chickens just squatted on the heads of the two lynxes, and it looked like a ball of chicken feathers, hahaha...

Coming to the edge of the field, "Zhengfeng, are you here to catch fish again today?"

Xu Zhengfeng straightened up when he heard the voice, "Well, when did you come back?"

"I just came back and saw you here, so I came to look for you." Tang Yuanming rolled up his trousers and sleeves, and went to the field.

The rice in the field grew taller and taller, half the height of other people's homes.

"I'm almost done."

"It's okay, I'll help you, go home early after catching." The fish basically swim in the deep water area in the middle, so it's easy to find.

"also."

On the shore, Xu Peng heard the shout of his little friend, and asked Xu Zhengyi, "Come and play with us?"

Xu Zhengyi was a little moved, "Brother, Brother Ming, I'll go play for a while and come back."

"Go ahead and be careful."

"Ah."

The young boy was very energetic and ran away in a while.

Xu Zhengyu muttered on the spot, "Second brother abandoned me again."

Tang Yuanming went ashore with the bucket, "Zhengyu, you're home."

Xu Zhengyu is short and has gained weight during this period of time. He is holding a stick to drive the animals that follow him, looking especially cute, "Go home, go home."

Tang Yuanming and Xu Zhengfeng couldn't help laughing as they watched from behind.

……

"Brother Ming, big brother, something is wrong." Xu Zhengyi ran home anxiously, with some panic in his expression.

Tang and his wife were in the kitchen preparing the stuffing for the next day's buns. When they heard Xu Zhengyi's voice, they stopped what they were doing and walked out.

Tang Yuanming pressed his hands on Xu Zhengyi's shoulders, and said softly, "Don't worry, speak slowly, what happened?"

Xu Zhengyi panicked and pointed outside, "Brother Ming, Xu Bao is gone."

Xu Bao is Xu Yang's son, and also the child Tang Yuanming rescued last time.

Tang Yuanming pulled Xu Zhengyi outside, why did something happen again?

Xu Zhengfeng hugged Xu Zhengyu and followed behind, and went to have a look together, why didn't he see the law?

Xu Zhengyi brought Tang Yuanming to the ancient well in the village, then pointed to the vicinity of the ancient well, "That's where Xu Bao disappeared."

Tang Yuanming's eyes swept across...

There is a knee-high well mouth around the ancient well, and there is a big old tree surrounded by four people nearby, with luxuriant branches and green flowers, very rare tree, so many generations in the village, no one knows this tree When did it grow, and I don't know what species it is, but it's very special anyway.

During the daytime, many people come to the ancient well to wash vegetables and clothes, and even enjoy the shade under the big tree in summer. However, it just so happens that no one is there today, either at home or working in the field, only a few teenagers are here play here.

And the teenagers didn't play any other games, they just played hide and seek. Everyone hid and no one saw where Xu Bao went.

There are more and more villagers gathered around, and the disappearance of the child is a big deal.

Xu Yang and his wife, Xu Yang's parents are already in a state of panic. This child is really troubled. He almost didn't recover when he was born. He fell into the water and almost drowned before, and now he is missing again...

"How did you find out that Xu Bao was missing?"

The big boy Xu Tao squeezed in front of Tang Yuanming, "We played hide-and-seek. This time I was the one to catch and they hid. I counted to one hundred and started looking for people. Later, when I found three people, I went to find them." I don't plan to look for it anymore, let everyone come out to continue the next round, but Xu Bao didn't come out..."

Xu Zhengyi took the words, "We didn't see him, so we looked for him. Only when we found him can we start the next round. But we even looked for him at home, but we didn't see anyone."

Xu Peng said in a hurry, "At that time we panicked, and then scattered all the friends in the village to look for it, but they couldn't find it. If we didn't find it, we went home to find our parents."

The village chief came out to preside over the overall situation, and looked at the red clouds in the sky, "It will be dark in an hour and a half. Let's disperse and search, and meet here at Gujing before dark."

All the villagers responded, "Okay."

Tang Yuanming and Xu Zhengfeng also joined the search army with their two children, but they found nothing.

Everyone lit the torches and gathered under the big tree in the ancient well. It was lifeless, and if they couldn't find it, it might be bad luck.

Suddenly, Xu Bao's mother, grandma, burst into tears, "Son, child...Xu Bao..."

Xu Yang and Xu Bao's grandfather had red eyes and was very sad. Xu Bao ate peanut crisps this afternoon, so well-behaved, and he disappeared after just a few hours.

Did he fall into the river again?

Then he denied it again. A few children were playing hide-and-seek by the ancient well, and they definitely wouldn't run to the river.

A villager speculated, "Will he be abducted?"

A villager retorted, "They were playing games in the village, no matter how Xu Bao hid, he would never go to the entrance of the village, and Xu Bao is not stupid, he would not go with people he didn't know."

This is also the reason.

Tang Yuanming glanced into the well, will he fall into the well?

But it shouldn't be easy to fall into such a high wellhead?

Everyone discussed at the ancient well for a long time, but they couldn't figure out why. In the end, they could only disperse and look for it tomorrow.

Xu Bao's family was overwhelmed with grief.

On the way back, Tang Yuanming was always thoughtful, Xu Zhengfeng glanced at him, "Yuanming, what do you think?"

Tang Yuanming shook his head, full of thoughts in his heart, "The whole thing is quite unusual. Xu Bao disappeared without any trace, which is too rare."

Xu Zhengfeng nodded, agreed with this statement, and then hesitated, "Yuan Ming, did Xu Bao fall into the ancient well?"

This idea coincided with his, "If you really fall into the ancient well, you will float up tomorrow. Besides, I want to tell you one more thing."

"what?"

Tang Yuanming was afraid of frightening Xu Zhengfeng by speaking out, "There is a green mist coming out of the ancient well, just like the green mist on Xu Bao's family."

Xu Zhengfeng was very surprised, "Then this incident is not only unusual, but also a bit unbelievable."

Tang Yuanming nodded, "So I think Xu Bao's disappearance should be related to Gujing."

Xu Zhengfeng hesitated, "Did Xu Bao really fall into the ancient well?"

Tang Yuanming stretched out his hand to hold Xu Zhengfeng, "It's hard to tell. The ancient well has existed for many years and how deep it is. I don't know what's weird about it now. If Xu Bao really fell into the well, there should be a reason. Don't worry. It’s useless to be anxious now, you will know tomorrow.”

Xu Zhengfeng's heartbeat accelerated slightly, "Gujing has been in the village for so many years, and has never had any accidents. Now that something happened suddenly, I don't know if it is auspicious or unlucky."

Tang Yuanming was a little helpless, "Why are you worrying so much? If something really happens, just fill it out."

Xu Zhengfeng glanced at Tang Yuanming, "I hope nothing will happen. That well is the closest to our house. If it is filled, we will have to detour to carry water."

After being silent for a while, Tang Yuanming said, "If you can figure out what that green mist is, you should know what happened."

"Then do you know how to solve it?"

Tang Yuanming paused, "I don't know yet, but if we can find Xu Bao, maybe we can solve it."

This question is really tricky.
