Chapter 92 The Ancient Well
The old man's home is actually a high-end villa.

The entire villa covers an area of ​​more than 500 square meters.Now, that's a luxury.

Entering the living room of the villa, you can see various high-tech designs in the living room: chandeliers, tables and chairs, fireplace...

Compared with this living room, Ai Li's house is like an ancient woodshed.

Seeing all this, Ai Li secretly made up his mind that one day, he would let his family live in such a villa.

The old man seemed to be in bad spirits.He asked his servants to bring out tea and pour it for Ai Li and Zhang Cuihua.Then he looked Ai Li up and down, and then looked at Zhang Cuihua.

"Since the two students have accepted my task, I believe you already know my situation, so I won't repeat it. The well is in the back garden. Are you going there now or at another time?"

Ai Li said: "Of course we go now."

The old man nodded, obviously hoping that Ai Li would work right away.

Ai Li and Zhang Cuihua followed the old man to the back garden.

Although it is late autumn at this time, the leaves in many other places have fallen, and the grass and trees have begun to wither.But the old man didn't know what method he used. In his garden, the flowers were still blooming and the vegetation was lush.

In the northeast corner of the backyard, there is an ancient well.

When Ai Li saw this ancient well, his scalp felt a little numb.It was really like the well in a horror movie he had seen a long time ago.In that well, a female ghost crawled out at that time.Could it be that a female ghost crawled out of this well?If this female ghost wants sex, that's okay, and she will sacrifice some of her appearance.But what if she wanted her life?

Shaking his head, Ai Li threw these messy thoughts out of his head.

I just have too much imagination, and sooner or later I will scare myself to death.

The old man pointed to the entrance and said: "I don't know where this well was dug. I remember when I was young, my grandfather said that when he was young, he heard that this well had existed for a long time. My youngest son, I was only three years old at the time, and I accidentally threw our diamond ring in. If you two have a way, please help us find it." The old man's eyes were slightly moist.

Ai Li patted his chest and said, "Master, don't worry, I will definitely find it for you."

As he said that, he was about to go down the well.

Zhang Cuihua went to stop Ai Li, took out something like a flashlight from her backpack, turned it on, and took a photo into the well.

I saw a turquoise light moving down the well wall.

On Zhang Cuihua's multi-functional watch, a holographic simulation map of the mine appeared.

The old man saw that these two people were more professional than those before, and his heart was full of hope.

Soon, the hologram of the entire well appeared. Zhang Cuihua carefully analyzed the hologram for a moment, and said, "It looks like an ordinary well. You put this automatic scanner on your body, and it will automatically scan a radius of ten meters. Although the scanning range is not large, it is more detailed."

Ai Li happily put the automatic scanner in his pocket, thinking that it seemed that he really made money.With Zhang Cuihua, this task will definitely be more effective with less effort.By the way, she won't share her reward, will she?Forget it, wait until the task is completed.

Ai Li came directly to the mouth of the well, grabbed the edge of the well with both hands, and was about to go down.

The old man looked surprised for a while: "Well...you don't use a rope?"

Ai Li proudly said: "For me, the rope is just a burden and affects my performance."

As he spoke, he slowly climbed down along the well wall.

Seeing this, the old man felt more at ease.This young man seems to be more reliable than the previous ones.

Ai Li went down to a place of five meters, and felt that he should not be able to see his feet from above, so he activated the skill of flying over the eaves and walls, and the dark red biological energy was lingering above his feet.

With the help of his flying and wall-walking skills, his speed is slowly increasing, almost walking straight down the wall.

Above the mouth of the well, Zhang Cuihua and the old man stared blankly: How could it be so fast?

The well was very deep, and after walking hundreds of meters, Ai Li felt water under his feet.Only then did he turn on the searchlight on his head.

Looking around, the cave was deep and dark, extremely silent.Only the surface of the water under your feet shone with sparkling waves under the light.

Ai Li recalled that in the horror movie, the female ghost came out of such water, and felt his hairs stand on end.

He swore he would never watch horror movies again, and he still loves cartoons.

I took a circle with a searchlight and found that the part of the well close to the water surface suddenly expanded, dozens of times larger than the well wall.It looks like a big hole.

The cave is surrounded by rocks and looks very slippery.

Ai Li didn't dare to jump into the water directly, so he turned on his multi-function watch and connected it to the scanner.According to the scanner, the water in the entire cave is at least ten meters deep.Ai Li didn't bring any diving equipment, so it was very difficult to go down and find a small diamond ring.

However, Ai Li plans to dive a few meters down first, and then swim around the cave wall, at least scan out the topography and environment here first, then it will be easier to come in next time.

Ai Li first contacted the old man above through the multi-function watch and asked him to get a set of diving equipment.The old man agreed and went to do it.

Down the well, Ai Li tested the water with his feet. The water was very cold, which made him shiver.

He took some water with his hands, poured a lot of water on himself, let himself get used to the cold, then took a deep breath, and jumped into the water with a plop.

The water is very clear, and through the light of the searchlight, you can see that there is nothing in the water.Of course, there are no female ghosts either.

Ai Li glanced around, and then dived ten meters down boldly.

When we got here, the scanner could finally reach the bottom of the water. The bottom was very clean and there seemed to be nothing.

Ai Li swam forward along the cave wall.

Originally, he thought that he would have to come up to take a breath after diving for 1 minute at most, but it has reached 2 minutes, and he still feels that he can persist.

This is the benefit of being promoted to the fourth level. Not only the strength and speed have been greatly improved, but also the holding of breath is much longer than that of the third level.

Soon, Ai Li swam half a circle.He was still thinking about whether he could scan the whole circle with this breath, when suddenly, he saw a snake-like creature with a thick arm lying on the bottom of the water in front of him.

Ai Li was taken aback, and said in his heart that no way, since the establishment of the safe zone, people have hardly seen snake creatures.Only outside the high walls, there is such a thing.

In confusion, Ai Li took a look at his multi-function watch and realized that it was a false alarm.

It wasn't a snake creature at all, but a tree root.

Considering that there are many trees planted around the old man's house, some of which are even hundreds of years old, it is not surprising that the roots of the trees can reach here.

Putting the tree roots aside, Ai Li continued to swim around, and a complete picture of the bottom of the well appeared.

Judging from this pattern, the diamond ring is not at the bottom of the well.

However, careful investigation is still needed to avoid any omissions.

At this time, the diving suit was also put down above.This diving suit is powered.

It does not have an oxygen cylinder, but has a fully enclosed helmet on the head.The helmet has a built-in oxygen conversion system that splits water into oxygen and hydrogen.Oxygen is used for breathing, and hydrogen is injected into the power system to propel people forward.

The market price of such a diving suit is at least a million or more.

Ai Lixin said that this old man is really an old local tyrant, and he will make one for himself when he has a chance.

Putting on the wetsuit, Ellie jumped into the water again.

Breathing fresh oxygen without swimming, the propellers on the feet of the diving suit have been activated.Ai Li only needs to control the speed and direction.Moreover, the wetsuit has a thermal insulation system, so you don't feel the coldness of the well water at all.

This is really a hundred times more comfortable than just now, and Ai Li wants to live in a diving suit and not come out.

He dived to the bottom of the well, much faster than before.I turned around quickly, but found nothing.

Zhang Cuihua above asked Ai Li to slow down and search carefully.

Ai Li had no choice but to slow down, bit by bit, carefully inspecting every crack in the stone.

At this moment, Ai Li suddenly remembered something, and his heart was terrified.

He turned his head abruptly, looking in the direction of the tree roots just now.

There, the tree roots strangely disappeared.
