"No, I saw the monster attacking the village. I wanted to go to the village to help, but when I passed by the courtyard, I heard the child's scream. Seeing that the courtyard door was unlocked, I pushed the door open and went in. I only found Ling 'er, but I didn't see Xiaoyu or the monster." Aunt Lan shook her head and said.
"Could it be that after the monster kidnapped the child, it used some kind of Earth Escape Technique to escape?" Ying Luo seemed to think of something and said.
"No, it's impossible to leave no traces on the ground after using an Earth Escape Technique. Now that there is no abnormality on the ground in the courtyard, it can't be an Earth Escape Technique." Granny Ma said in a deep voice.
"I understand!"
As Shen Luo spoke, he quickly walked to the side of the well. He bent down and touched the ground beside the well with his finger. He brought it to his nose and sniffed it. After that, he stood up and looked into the well.
Seeing this, Ying Luo and Aunt Lan supported Granny Ma and followed.
Several people looked into the well together. There were no ripples on the water surface in the well. It was deep inside, like an invisible mouth that could swallow everything that entered.
"Immortal Master Shen, do you mean that the monster took Xiaoyu and escaped from this well?" Granny Ma asked.
When Aunt Lan heard this, she subconsciously took a step back, as if she was afraid that a monster would jump out and drag her down.
"It's indeed very likely. Only by going here can it not leave any traces, but in this way, Xiaoyu is in danger." Ying Luo frowned.
"I've read some records before. It says that some Demonic Beasts like to capture children to aid their cultivation, but the premise is that the child must be alive. If it's true, then Little Yu is safe for the time being," Shen Luo said slowly.
"There is indeed such a saying, but what's the use of it? Can you really dive into the water to find the monster? Sigh, poor child … "Granny Ma nodded first, then sighed.
"If she is really dragged into the water by the monster, she can't even breathe when she goes in. So what if she finds the monster? Wouldn't she be sacrificing her life? "
"Yes! It seems that Xiaoyu is doomed this time … "
"Sigh, I watched Xiaoyu grow up. This child is the smartest and most responsible. What a pity."
When the villagers outside the courtyard saw this situation, they began to discuss animatedly.
"I can go down and take a look," Shen Luo suddenly said.
As soon as these words came out, everyone, including Granny Ma and Ying Ruo, was stunned. The way they looked at Shen Luo changed a little, especially Granny Ma. The remaining indifference on her face disappeared.
"I'll go down with you. I don't know how strong that monster is, but the two of us can take care of each other." Seeing this, Ying Luo immediately said.
"Miss Ying, you don't know any water-repelling divine ability. You won't be able to last long underwater, so don't go down. Moreover, you still need to look after the village to prevent other demonic beasts from taking advantage of the situation. "Shen Luo shook his head.
"But it's too dangerous for you to go down alone." Ying Luo said anxiously.
"Don't worry, I'm just going down to investigate. If there's any danger, I'll come up immediately. Besides, I have ways to protect myself." Shen Luo looked quite confident.
When Ying Luo heard this, he could only nod.
"Shen Daoyou, be careful." Granny Ma also exhorted.
Shen Luo smiled at them and urged the Water Repelling Secret Art. A blue light flashed on the surface of his body, and a layer of blue light appeared. He jumped into the well and dived into the depths.
When the villagers outside the courtyard saw this magical technique, they exclaimed one after another.
Granny Ma's eyes flickered, and a trace of pondering appeared on her face. No one knew what she was thinking.
Shen Luo used the Water Repelling Secret Art to protect his body and soon reached the bottom of the well. He glanced around and found that the situation here was the same as when he dived in before. There was nothing unusual. The soil at the bottom of the well and the surrounding walls were flat and natural. There were no signs of drilling.
"Could it be that I guessed wrong?"
Shen Luo thought so and secretly urged the Water Repelling Secret Art. His body slowly floated up, and he carefully looked around the walls of the well while reaching out to touch them.
"Huh!"
As a result, after he rose about two feet, his hand that was groping on the wall of the well suddenly stopped. His eyes widened slightly as if he had found something.
He didn't think much about it. His two hands quickly rubbed on the wall of the well in front of him. A large amount of yellow mud rose up and blocked his vision. But with a thought, the well water in front of him suddenly surged and washed away the mud. The vision in front of him became clear again.
He saw a yellow stone the size of a millstone embedded in the wall of the well in front of him. At the edge of the big stone, he could vaguely see some black shadows.
Shen Luo took a deep breath, reached into the edge of the stone, and pulled hard.
With a "crash", the yellow stone rolled down from the wall of the well, revealing a big black hole. It was dark and deep inside, and he didn't know where it led to.
"It's really here!" Shen Luo muttered to himself. He looked inside a few times, and his eyes suddenly fell somewhere on the edge of the passage.
There were two stones there, and there were a few hair-like things wrapped around them.
He raised his hand and took it, and found that it was a few strands of yellowish hair, much thicker than ordinary people's hair.
Shen Luo put the hair to his nose and sniffed it. His eyes lit up slightly.
This smell was the remnant smell in the courtyard.
He put the few strands of hair into his arms and didn't continue to stay here. His figure quickly rose up.
Not long after, the water at the mouth of the well made a "crash" sound, and Shen Luo's figure jumped out from inside.
"Immortal Master Shen is coming up!"
The villagers had already poured into the courtyard, and there was a commotion when they saw the situation.
"Big Brother Shen, what's the situation inside?" Ying Luo hurriedly asked. Although Granny Ma didn't speak, her eyes also revealed the same eagerness to know the result.
Shen Luo didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly described the situation inside the well.
When everyone heard that there was such a passage under the well, they were shocked.
"That passage doesn't look like it was formed naturally. It was most likely dug by that demon. It seems that this demon has been lurking near the village." Shen Luo guessed.
"No wonder Uncle Du's family disappeared one after another, and Feng Xiaobao and the others also suddenly disappeared. It seems that they were most likely captured by this demon." Ying Luo suddenly thought of something and said angrily.
"Also, I found this inside. The smell on it is the same as the remnant smell of the demon here. Take a look." Shen Luo took out the few strands of yellowish hair from his arms and said.
"What is this? It looks like hair, but it's a bit thick." Ying Luo took the hair and said curiously.
"This hair is so long. What kind of demon grows such long hair?" Green Ox came over and looked at the hair in Ying Luo's hand and said doubtfully.
"This … this is …" Granny Ma's expression suddenly changed.
"Granny Ma, you recognize this thing?" Ying Luo hurriedly asked.
"That's right, that's right. It's that demon's hair. It's back!" Granny Ma stared at the few strands of hair, and her old face was filled with shock and anger.
