Chapter 25 The House Under the Well-The Northern School Tomb Raider’s Notes
by Jessie@AFNCCWhen people have a harvest, they will have a heart, and it doesn’t matter if they are a little bitter or a little tired. When the overturned things are well organized, the group is still thinking of fishing a big goods.
It didn’t turn out so well, and from the fourth day onward our luck ran out, and we didn’t see a single thing of value all day, and the dirt that was dumped up was full of broken brass and knick-knacks.
On the fifth day there was a small harvest, Aggie turned over a tortoiseshell belt plate (an ancient belt buckle made from sea turtle shells), which was originally supposed to have been attached to the waistband of some man’s pants.
Put the head of the original plan is seven days, seven days if you can not find the black water city will retreat, the result is because encountered this dry well, in line with the principle of mosquito is also meat, unknowingly, the light here we have spent most of the time.
The headman said he was on the last day of the dry, and he guessed he should be almost at the bottom of the well.
He guessed right, I put down a shovel and felt like I hit a hard rock at the bottom of the well.
Everyone was speeding up, Xiao Xuan and Aji also helped to lift and dump the soil, and everything was going on step by step and in a tight schedule.
Uncle Kulu made up two more straw frames, and Bean Sprout and I partnered up down the well to work on them.
Just as the cleanup was about to draw to a close, I glanced out of the corner of my eye and suddenly noticed something very different.
“Wait.”
“Don’t move yet.” I shouted, pointing behind Beanpole.
Beanpole Boy was startled and asked me what was wrong.
I walked over to Beanstalk and squatted down in front of him and looked at him closely for two minutes.
Bean Sprout Boy looked down to see what was under her feet and said, “Hey, scared me, I thought Yun Feng what are you researching, it turns out to be a piece of broken tiles.” Saying this she planned to kick it away.
“Me!” Before Beanpole could finish his sentence, his feet suddenly stampeded!
Being so close, I subconsciously yanked on Beanpole.
“Gotcha! I got you budgie! Don’t move!”
Beanpole was dangling by his feet, yelling and struggling.
I took him by the arm in a death grip and dragged him up as hard as I could.
Beanpole Boy was terrified, and he whipped his head around in shock.
It turned out that those tiles were not one, but row upon row all buried in the earth.
Everyone dawned on them and looked dumbfounded that this turned out to be a roof …..
We were now standing on the roof of some ancient building. The bottom of the well was surprisingly next to the roof, and underneath the tiled pawn that Bean Sprout Boy had stepped on was a black hole, with a great deal of gravel and sand running down the center.
I yelled to the top, “Put the head! Brother Qin! You guys come down and take a look!”
Qin Xingping the first to come down, he looked at it and drew a breath of cold air, said this can be really hell, I did not think that the bottom of the well hides such a big secret, if it is not for our spur of the moment decision, I am afraid to look for a lifetime can not find this place.
Lifting the tiles elsewhere, this hole in the roof gaped wider and wider.
Putting his head on the ground and looking with the flashlight, he opened his mouth and said, “The space underneath this is not small, it may be some kind of architectural ruins within the Blackwater City, ventilate for twenty minutes, guys bring your tools and go down to have a look.”
After half an hour, I was the first to volunteer to go down.
I do not understand the building structure of the Western Xia period, after coming down I found that the surrounding is a stone wall, there are a few six or seven meters high thick wooden sticks topped the roof, too much time, half of the wood has rotted, bean sprouts boy just stepped on the place, directly underneath there are a few broken off, the original should have been topped with the roof to play a supporting role.
The others came down one by one.
“There doesn’t seem to be much here, an empty house?” Beanpole came down and looked around with his flashlight.
“No, there seems to be something there in the corner.” Holding up his flashlight to the northwest corner, Beanpole said there was something there.
