Chapter 8 Ruan Lanzhu's Sense of Security

Hearing Ruan Lanzhu say this, Ling Jiushi nodded and turned back to continue studying the well.

"Brother Lingling, look at this." Chen Ying pointed to the claw marks on the wall of the well and said.

Ling Jiushi looked at it and gestured with his hands.

“Uncle, we are the people invited by the clan leader. If you don’t cooperate like this…” Ruan Lanzhu approached the uncle and said that they were the people invited by the clan leader. Although he didn’t finish his words, his tone was full of threats.

When Chen Ying heard and watched, she always felt that if the uncle refused Brother Ruan, Brother Ruan would chop him with an axe.

"Were you really invited by the clan leader?" the uncle asked with some doubt.

"Of course uncle, we were invited by the clan leader to help. You have to tell us what happened so that we can better help the clan leader solve the problem." Chen Ying walked over and said.

"The clan leader is a very good man. Thanks to him, we are able to survive." At this time, the aunt behind the uncle said.

"Oh? Did the patriarch do anything big?" Chen Ying asked.

Seeing Chen Ying asking, Ruan Lanzhu didn't plan to speak anymore, just watched.

Just see how smart she is.

And the uncle stopped talking again.

Seeing the silent uncle, Chen Ying sighed. If it wasn't for the purpose of showing off in front of Brother Ruan and demonstrating her own value so that she could join Obsidian later, she wouldn't have thought about it at all.

The college student said she just wanted to lie down.

Only, that turned out to be unlikely.

Rather than using her brain, she actually prefers to threaten with direct force. She also wants to threaten with an axe like Brother Ruan in the drama, but unfortunately, she doesn't have that strength.

"Uncle, the scratches on this well were left by attacks by large animals, so this well is used for refuge, right?" Chen Ying said.

The uncle still didn't speak.

Chen Ying: …………

Why didn’t I notice when I was watching the show that this NPC was so taciturn?

"Uncle, I saw a painting of a wolf disaster on the mural in the ancestral hall. Is this well used to avoid the wolf disaster?" Seeing that the uncle had not spoken, Ling Jiushi remembered the painting he saw in the ancestral hall and asked tentatively.

After hearing this, the uncle just looked at the three of them and said nothing.

Ling Jiushi: …………

Chen Ying: …………

They both looked at Ruan Lanzhu and said, "Brother, you should do it."

Use force to make him speak.

Chen Ying's eyes spoke to Ruan Lanzhu.

However, in Ruan Lanzhu's eyes, Chen Ying's eyes suddenly twitched, and she looked so ugly that it was unbearable to look at.

"The clan leader invited us here to resolve certain issues. If you keep hesitating like this, we will have to use some unfriendly means." Ruan Lanzhu said, looking at the uncle with cold eyes.

Perhaps it was because Ruan Lanzhu was too imposing, the uncle finally spoke.

"Three of you, it's not that I don't want to say it, but I can't say it."

"You are hiding from a wolf." Thinking of the wolf they encountered when they first came here and the murals in the ancestral hall, Ling Jiushi said.

"Yes." The uncle nodded.

"He has been killed by me." Ling Jiushi said with a smile.

After hearing this, Ruan Lanzhu looked at Ling Jiushi in disbelief, "I was the one who killed him."

"Why differentiate between you and me? It's too formal." Ling Jiushi approached Ruan Lanzhu and said in a low voice.

After hearing Ling Jiushi's words, Ruan Lanzhu didn't say anything, but just looked at him lovingly.

Chen Ying listened and said that she was touched again. Lingling was right. There was no difference between you and me. What belonged to Brother Ruan was Lingling's, and what belonged to Lingling was still Lingling's.

Ahhh, the look in Brother Ruan's eyes when he looked at Lingling just now was both helpless and doting. Oh my god, it was so sweet.

Let them be together soon, Lingling and Brother Ruan are such a perfect match. The couple she supports is just perfect, a perfect match, a top match, a match made in heaven.

Ahhhhhhh!!! Chen Ying screamed like a groundhog in her heart.

"If that's true, then you are the great benefactors of our clan." The uncle said to the three of them.

"It's not that serious. You just need to answer the questions we asked just now." Ling Jiushi said.

"Oh, let me tell you, this well is indeed not used to draw water. It was built by the tribe leader and us in order to avoid the wolf disaster..." The uncle said, and suddenly he got a little excited when he thought of something.

"So what happened in this well?" Ling Jiushi asked, pointing at the well.

"There is a monster." The uncle said in a low voice.

"Monster?" Hearing the uncle say that, Ling Jiushi and Ruan Lanzhu looked at each other. They all knew that the monster was most likely the female ghost, or the door god.

It seems that Xiaoying's guess was correct, the door god lives in the well.

Chen Ying: Of course not. Not only did she know that the door god was in the well, she also knew that the door was in the well.

"Hey, why don't you blow up or fill up the well so that the monsters have nowhere to hide?" Ling Jiushi asked.

"Oh, I've thought of this idea before. There was a pair of brave brothers in our village. They filled their own well. However, when they looked into the well while filling it, they all died. After this incident, who would dare to fill a well?" said the uncle.

"Two brothers..." Ruan Lanzhu seemed to think of something when he heard this.

"Okay, thank you uncle, sorry to bother you." Ling Jiushi said, and then he and Ruan Lanzhu walked out of the yard.

After taking two steps, I realized that Chen Ying didn't follow me.

"Let's go, Xiaoying, what are you looking at?" Ling Jiushi asked when he saw Chen Ying always staring at him and Ruan Lanzhu and smiling strangely.

"Ah? Oh, here I come." Chen Ying hurriedly followed.

"Hehe, Brother Lingling and Brother Bai Jie are so good-looking that I was stunned for a moment." Chen Ying said with a smile.

"You." Ling Jiushi heard this and shook his head with a smile.

He looked at Ruan Lanzhu. She was indeed pretty, but he wasn't bad either.

"Sister, who do you think is better looking, me or your brother Lingling?" Ruan Lanzhu suddenly became interested and teased Chen Ying.

This time, Ling Jiushi also looked at Chen Ying.

This sentence is so familiar...

"Well, Brother Lingling and Brother Baijie, you are both good-looking, both handsome guys." Chen Ying looked at the two of them and said equally.

"Pfft, the desire to survive is quite good." Ruan Lanzhu was amused.

"Hehe." Chen Ying smiled naively at Ruan Lanzhu.

Of course not, her desire to survive has always been strong.

"Since the uncle said there is a monster in the well, it can be confirmed that the female ghost is in the well." Chen Ying said.

"Although the villager said there was a monster in the well, he didn't say that the monster was a female ghost. We need to confirm it further." Ruan Lanzhu said.

Chen Ying nodded. As expected of Brother Ruan, he was cautious.

Although she knew that the monster was a female ghost, she still agreed. "Brother Bai Jie is right. What if there are both monsters and female ghosts in this village?"

The three of them walked a few steps, and Ruan Lanzhu suddenly said to Ling Jiushi, "Ling Jiushi, remember, don't tell anyone except us about your investigation of the well."

"Why? Wouldn't it be easier to get things done with more people?" Ling Jiushi looked at Ruan Lanzhu in confusion.

Ruan Lanzhu: "Have I ever hurt you?"

"Not at the moment." Ling Jiushi said after thinking for a while.

"Then just listen to me for now." Ruan Lanzhu said, and walked forward.

Ling Jiushi blinked and looked at Ruan Lanzhu in front of him in confusion.

"My intuition tells me to listen to him."

"Brother Bai Jie is definitely doing this for our own good. People's minds are hard to predict. With so many people here, who knows if anyone has bad intentions. We can't be wrong if we listen to him." Chen Ying said.

"Why do you trust Ruan Lanzhu so much?" Ling Jiushi asked Chen Ying as they walked.

He discovered that Chen Ying believed Ruan Lanzhu's words very much.

But it was clearly the first time they met.

"Intuition. Brother Bai Jie has a strong sense of security." Chen Ying said.

The sense of security of a big boss. Chen Ying added silently in his heart.

"Of course, I also trust you, Brother Lingling."

"You two should hurry up." Ruan Lanzhu urged them when he saw that the two of them were lagging far behind.

"Coming." Ling Jiushi responded, then quickened his pace and followed.

"What are you talking about?" Ruan Lanzhu asked.

"Ah? Nothing, just chatting casually..."

When the three men arrived at the carpenter's house, the others had already arrived and were standing in a row in the yard.

Chen Ying couldn't help but complain in her heart about this standing position, it was just like being late for morning exercises in winter at school and being punished by standing.

"Where have you been? Why are you here just now?" Xiao Ke asked unhappily when he saw that the three of them took so long to come.

"I took a walk around the village." Ling Jiushi replied casually, his hands in his pockets.

Oh, I have that feeling again, the head teacher Xiao Ke asked the students why they were late, and the lazy student Ling Ling said nonchalantly that he was just strolling around, hahahahaha. This feeling of déjà vu suddenly made me happy.

Ling Jiushi looked at her strangely, wondering what was wrong. This girl might have some problem with her brain. She always looked at him or Ruan Lanzhu and smiled foolishly from time to time.

As for Ruan Lanzhu, he felt nothing but disgust at Chen Ying's silly look.

If this is an act, the acting is really good.

At this time, the carpenter was sitting on a chair, smoking a pipe. Seeing that everyone was present, he slowly said, "If you want to make coffins, you have to go up the mountain and cut trees."

"How many pieces of wood do you need?" asked Xiong Qi.

"Three."

"One person needs to hug a tree with three arms, not a single one can be missing." As he spoke, the carpenter gestured with his hands.

"The tree trunk must be straight, without scars, cracks, or worm holes, and must not have been struck by lightning or fire. We want the trees on the sunny side of the mountain, and not on the shady side," said the carpenter.

Chen Ying listened and felt that there were so many requirements for making a coffin.

"Okay, how long will it take to complete? We need it urgently." Xiao Ke asked.

At this time, the carpenter was smoking and not talking.

"Old man?" Xiao Ke asked again.

"You go and chop down the trees first. If you are still alive after chopping down the trees, then ask me." The carpenter said after a while.

After the carpenter finished speaking, everyone looked at each other.
