"Is it possible, Uncle Li, that you are related to the Li family in Longcheng?" Daolin asked in a low voice.
"Oh? Do you still know about the Li family?" Li Hongwei said slightly surprised.
Now it was Dolin's turn to be surprised: "Is it possible that you are really from the Li family?"
"Yes, I am indeed a member of the Li family. I shouldn't have told you this originally, but you came with Long Yatou and should have nothing to do with the Li family. It doesn't hurt to tell you." Li Hongwei took a sip of wine and said.
"Since Uncle Li we have talked about this, shouldn't it be time for you to tell me what's going on underground?" Dolin asked in a deep voice.
Li Hongwei's hand that was about to drink stopped in mid-air. He took a deep look at Daolin and said, "What does this have to do with you?"
"I'm just curious, or want to help you." Dolin said with sincere eyes.
"You can't help. This is my own private matter." Li Hongwei decisively rejected Daolin's kindness.
Daolin stared at Li Hongwei with burning eyes, then a smile appeared on his face and he drank all the wine in the glass.
Long Xiaonian didn't know what the two of them were talking about. She just ate meat and drank wine while praising Daolin's delicious food.
Li Hongwei laughed and scolded: "Young lady Long, she even praised the delicious dry-roasted prawns I made at noon, but then turned around and forgot about it in the evening."
Long Xiaonian stuck out his tongue at Li Hongwei and continued eating.
Daolin kept asking Li Hongwei to drink, as if he wanted to get Li Hongwei drunk.
But Li Hongwei's drinking capacity was somewhat beyond Daolin's expectation. The two of them had already drank three gourds of wine, but Li Hongwei was still not drunk. This made Daolin wonder whether Li Hongwei was an ordinary person. If he was not an ordinary person, Daolin didn't feel it at all. There is no fluctuation in the opponent's true energy.
Finally, after the two of them finished drinking the five gourds of wine, Li Hongwei waved his hand to signal that he would stop drinking.
"I have never had such a delicious drink. I drank too much today." Li Hongwei said with a smile.
"I'll leave a few more gourds for you if you like." Dolin said and took out a few more gourds of wine from the ring.
Unexpectedly, Li Hongwei waved his hand and said, "Although this wine is good, it's not suitable for me. I'll get greedy once I get used to it."
"There is no way to repay the kindness of giving food, and some drinks are nothing." Dao Lin Qian said.
"I took your money and taught you how to grill prawns. You and I owe each other nothing." Li Hongwei said without any hesitation.
Seeing that Li Hongwei was so determined, Daolin put away the wine gourd.
"Okay, you young people, let's talk for a while. I'm old, so I'm going to rest first. There's no need to clean the dinner plates. I'll just clean them up tomorrow." After that, Li Hongwei stood up and walked to the backyard.
Daolin stood up to say goodbye to Li Hongwei and watched him leave before sitting down again.
"I forgot to ask Uncle Li, where should we sleep at night?" Dolin suddenly slapped his forehead and said.
"There is a room in the backyard, but it probably needs to be tidied up." Long Xiaonian pointed to the backyard with a greasy finger.
Dolin nodded. He was going to explore the bottom of the well tonight. It didn't matter whether he slept or not.
"You seem to have something on your mind?" Long Xiaonian asked looking at Daolin who was in a daze.
"Do you want to know what happened to Uncle Li?" Dolin said carefully.
"What are you going to do?" Long Xiaonian replied via voice transmission.
"Didn't I find two holes at the bottom of the lake at the top of the mountain, one big and one small? The big one is the water inlet. There is a small hole directly opposite the water inlet. That is the water outlet. The direction of the water outlet is right here, that is Towards that well."
"So you suspect that this place is connected to the top of the mountain?" Long Xiaonian asked.
"Well, I seriously doubt that. Coupled with the chill emanating from down here and the ancient locust tree in the backyard, these are all weird." Dolin nodded seriously.
Long Xiaonian was immediately interested. She had always been a very nervous and courageous girl. When she heard about such strange things, instead of being scared, she was a little excited.
"By the way, will we make Uncle Li unhappy if we do this?" Long Xiaonian asked.
"Don't worry, I will go down without anyone noticing, and you can be responsible for keeping watch on it." Dowling thought for a while and replied.
"No, why don't you let me go down with such an exciting thing?" Long Xiaonian suddenly became unhappy.
"Look, you're afraid when I tell you to go on, and you don't want to when I tell you to go down," Dowling said with a shrug.
"It's okay, I can do it." Long Xiaonian nodded firmly.
"Okay, we'll take action later. Now let's pretend to go to bed." After Daolin said that, he stood up and walked towards the backyard. Long Xiaonian quickly ran to follow him.
"Which rooms?" Dorian asked, standing in the doorway.
There are a total of seven rooms in this courtyard, excluding the kitchen and Li Hongwei's room, there are five more.
"Those two!" Long Xiaonian pointed to the two rooms near the backyard gate.
Dolin frowned slightly. Those two rooms were just under the ancient locust tree. They were the worst rooms in the yard. If ordinary people lived in them, they would definitely get seriously ill or even worse over time.
"Let's go." Daolin didn't say anything clearly, and walked over with Long Xiaonian.
The room was unlocked, so Dorian gently pushed the room open, then walked in and lit an oil lamp.
The room was relatively clean, but there was a layer of soil and a slight musty smell.
It's normal to have a musty smell. The cold air from the ground is always radiating upward. There is a double coldness in the room directly under the ancient locust tree. If it can be dry, there will be ghosts.
Daolin stretched out his hand and turned it around a few times in front of him. The true energy drove the air to roll up the floating soil, and then he was sent out of the door by Daolin.
He touched the damp bedding, and a wave of heat suddenly emitted from his body, drying the room instantly. This made Long Xiaonian very excited, and he hurriedly called Daolin to help her clean up the room.
In desperation, Daolin transformed into a tool man and tidied up Long Xiaonian's room again.
"Sleep first, I'll call you later." Daolin sent a message to Long Xiaonian, and then returned to his room.
He extinguished the oil lamp, then sat cross-legged on the bed and meditated.
As he sat quietly, the true energy in his body began to circulate slowly, ensuring that his body was always ready to fight, because he did not know what the situation was underground, and he had to be fully prepared if he wanted to go down.
After confirming that he was in the best condition, Daolin slowly got off the bed. His senses were full, and he could feel the slight sound of Long Xiaonian sleeping soundly in the next room.
"This girl actually fell asleep." Daolin smiled helplessly, thinking it's not that I don't want to play with you, it's that you are not sure.
Then the perception extended to the distance, and soon he noticed Li Hongwei. At this time, Li Hongwei was not sleeping. Instead, he was sitting cross-legged on the bed and mumbling something. His voice was very weak, even Daolin's hearing could not hear clearly, but it was vague. It feels like some scripture or something.
Daolin was a little confused at this time. If Li Hongwei was sleeping, it would be better for him to go down the well. But the other party was not sleeping at this time. If he found himself going down the well, it might not be easy to explain.
Dolin was at a loss for a moment.
