Chapter 959 The Dry Well in the Old House

If that's the case, Chen Xin'an has no objection.

And this seems to be the best candidate.

Because only Grandpa Luo Lie can keep the Mo family in check.

At least everyone can keep their own business.

Luo Xiaoman is not a person who wastes time, so he called the old man on the spot.

The answer was very straightforward. After knowing the ins and outs of the old house, he also said on the spot that he was a little busy these two days. He made an appointment next week to come and take a look. If it's suitable, he will buy it.

After Luo Xiaoman died, he looked at this place again, and his eyes were no longer watching the excitement just now.

"Chen Xin'an, do you know what kind of tree this is?

This is a red-core agate pomegranate!

Look at the trunk, it's at least two hundred years old!

You haven't seen it before, right?

This tree alone is worth tens of thousands.

People like you who live in a big villa have never seen this thing..."

Chen Xin'an glanced at him with disdain and said, "Do you know where the oldest pomegranate tree in China is?

The right peak of Qingniu Mountain is where I lived when I was a child.

It's almost five hundred years old.

When ripe, it can be full of nearly three thousand pomegranates.

The largest pomegranate that was once hung was like a small watermelon, weighing four or five kilograms.

It was later bought by a wealthy businessman at a sky-high price of 88,000!"

Luo Xiaoman closed his mouth and stopped talking, and walked aside.

He saw the water well next to the pomegranate tree and grinned.

"You grew up in the mountains when you were a child?

Then you definitely don't know what this is!

You can't tell what it's used for, right?

I tell you, you can only see this thing in a courtyard like Kyoto.

You can't see it in other places, even in the countryside!"

Chen Xin'an didn't waste time talking to him, but just walked to the water well.

First, he scooped a bucket of water from the water tank and poured it into the water trough, then took the long pressure rod and pressed it quickly a few times.

The trough was already full of clear well water.

Chen Xin'an skillfully pressed the rod with one hand and received the water with the other hand. After washing his face, he took a sip and said to Luo Xiaoman:

"Fifty-meter old well.

The water is very clear, warm in winter and cool in summer.

This water can be used to make tea, and it has a faint iron smell when cooking."

Fuck, is it over yet?

I still want to show off my knowledge, but I didn't expect you to know more than me!

How come you, a mountain artillery who has lived in the mountains since childhood, are familiar with everything?

Do you think it's fun to show off so crazy?

Luo Xiaoman ignored him with a straight face and turned to leave.

Chen Xinan pointed to a stone platform and said, "What is this?"

Luo Xiaoman's eyes lit up. Is there something you don't know?

He turned his head and glanced at the place where Chen Xinan pointed. In the spirit of being a good teacher, he said to him seriously:

"Student Chen asked a good question. Now Teacher Luo will teach you and answer your questions.

Come, look at my lip shape.

Well!

Read it with the teacher, Ji Yier Jing!"

"Get out!" Chen Xinan cursed: "Your Pinyin was taught by an old rogue, right?"

Luo Xiaoman pointed to the front and asked him, "How dare you say this is not a well?"

Chen Xinan cursed, "I know it's a well, so I'm surprised!

Why do we need a well like this when we have a pressurized well?

"Who knows! "Luo Xiaoman shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently: "Maybe there is no water in the well, so a new pressure well was dug?"

Chen Xinan scolded him with a dark face: "You idiot! Look at the foundation stone under the pressure well, it is older than the stone on the well platform.

The wear and tear marks are also older than this side. It is obvious that the pressure well was dug first, and then this well was built."

Chen Xinan had walked to the side of the well platform and lifted the wooden board covering it.

What's even more strange is that the well platform has been damaged, and it's a new mark.

It's like they wanted to destroy the well, but finally gave up for other reasons.

It just so happened that Wu Yan had come back with the key. The room had been opened and there was no problem with the door lock.

Chen Xinan pointed to the well and asked her: "Have you been here before? Do you know how many years this well has been dug?"

Wu Yan shook her head and said: "I came here once when I was dating Lao Xiao.

But I remember clearly that there was no well in this old house at that time.

This should be the well that the Wu family hired someone to dig after they moved in!"

Chen Xinan nodded and walked to the well.

Although the well mouth had been destroyed, the bottom was still intact.

It was about seven or eight meters deep, and it seemed dry below, with no water.

This was very strange.

There was a pressurized well, but another well was dug and a well platform was built.

And judging from the shelf next to it, there should be a wheel here.

In other words, there should have been a bucket hanging here.

But the key is, there is no water below!

Then what is the meaning of this well?

Chen Xinan looked down, and suddenly an arm stretched out from the side and pulled him back!

"Brother, don't jump into the well!

If you have any worries, tell me!

I'll take care of it for you!"

Chen Xinan frowned and cursed: "Go away! Don't be so unruly here, don't you think it's a bit strange?"

"Strange?" Luo Xiaoman also put away his playful expression, looked at him and asked: "What's so strange?"

Chen Xinan pointed to the water well next to him and said: "Don't you think this well is a bit redundant?"

Luo Xiaoman patted his shoulder and said: "Young man, I'll tell you a truth, the so-called existence is reasonable!

Since they dug it, This well has its own uses!"

"Yes!" Chen Xinan nodded and said, "So what is its use?

Draw water? It's empty here, no water!

But there are wheels on top, and there is moss on the wall of the well left after the water overflowed.

There are also steel handrails for people to go up and down.

It has been worn very smooth, which means that people often go down there!

And have you noticed that everyone's well is better as small as possible?

Where is the well with a diameter of 1.5 meters?"

Luo Xiaoman blinked his eyes, of course he couldn't answer.

He waved his hand and snorted and said, "Why think so much? I'll go down and see if the truth is clear, right?"

"Don't worry..." Chen Xinan wanted to wait, but Luo Xiaoman had already used his hands and feet to go down from the steel handrail.

Chen Xinan had no choice but to say to him: "Be careful, even if there is something down there, don't touch it randomly, don't try to show off, and come up quickly if you find something wrong..."

"Alright, alright, you're more wordy than my dad!" Luo Xiaoman cursed impatiently, and soon reached the bottom of the well.

After looking around, Luo Xiaoman pouted and looked up and said: "There's nothing! It stinks in here!

Chen Xinan, isn't this the open-air toilet built by those guys?"

Chen Xinan ignored his idiotic question!

Who the hell got kicked in the head by a donkey and dug an open-air toilet eight or nine meters deep in his own yard?

You don't want biogas like this!

Besides, a squat toilet with a diameter of one and a half meters?

Everyone who comes to the toilet has to practice a big split first to solve the problem?

Is this a question that a normal mind can ask?

It's right that it stinks down there!

It's covered with wooden boards all the time, so of course it smells.

Chen Xinan was still worried about poisonous gas, but now it seems that he was worrying too much!

Just as he was thinking about asking him to come up, he heard someone shouting from below: "Huh? Why is there a small door here?

Where does it lead to?

I'll open the door and take a look!"

"Don't mess around! Come up first!" Chen Xinan shouted to the people below, but heard the sound of an iron door being opened.

Luo Xiaoman's voice came later: "It's so dark and deep in here!

Old house, dry well...

There won't be a female ghost in there, right?

But it won't scare me, Luo Xiaoman.

You must know that I am Luo Dadan, the famous explorer in Kyoto!

I dare to take my girlfriend outside the cemetery, afraid of a mere female ghost like you?"

Chen Xinan looked disdainful.

You still regard this kind of shameless behavior as a heroic deed?

Young man, who gave you the confidence?
