"I have never seen other ghosts, but it is not difficult to recognize you."
Su Li gave an ambiguous answer, brushing her fingers over the smooth forehead of the little girl on the bed, and said in a subtle tone, "It is very easy for me to cure your daughter, but I need you to agree to a condition."
"You really came here with a purpose..."
The dignified woman's heart tightened and she hesitated for a moment. When she saw her daughter's brows frowning from time to time on the bed, she couldn't help but gritted her teeth and said, "You say it."
Su Li saw her reaction, and a memory flashed through his mind. His eyes softened a little, and his tone was calm: "Woman, is there a dry well in the backyard of Duan's house?"
The dignified woman obviously didn't expect Su Li to suddenly change the subject. She was stunned for a moment and then said in surprise: "There is indeed a dry well in front of the ancestral temple. It seems to be very old and everyone in the city knows about it. Many people in the family also went down to investigate. I checked and found nothing. Could it be that you..."
"Madam, you guessed a little too much."
Su Li smiled and narrowed her perfectly curved eyes. The dignified woman heard the warning from his mouth and immediately shut up. After a moment, she changed the subject and said, "What... do you want me to do?"
Su Li's eyes flashed and he said: "If I want to enter that dry well, in addition to the cooperation of your Duan family, I may also need you to look after me outside. During the time when I enter the well, no one is allowed to enter! With your With strength, it should be easy.”
The dignified woman opened her mouth slightly and said in surprise: "Is this all the requirements?"
Su Li smiled and nodded without saying a word. The dignified woman's face suddenly became relaxed, and she said confidently: "My husband, with my secret help, has completely taken control of the Duan Mansion. The dry well has been thoroughly explored by the Duan family. Your Excellency wants to go in." There will be no resistance at all in the dry well, as long as you can cure my daughter... During the time that you enter the well, I will stay at the mouth of the well without leaving!"
"It's a deal."
"It's a deal!"
…
Half an hour later, Su Li opened the door and immediately saw Duan Rong waiting anxiously at the door. Duan Rong couldn't help but be startled when he saw Su Li appear.
It's only been half an hour, could it be...
"Sir, little girl?"
Duan Rong couldn't help but use the honorific title. Su Li smiled and turned slightly, "Fortunately, it's honorable. Master Duan, please go in and take a look."
Duan Rong immediately became excited, and without caring about anything else, he stepped into the room three steps at a time, and then a girl's voice, as clear as an oriole, sounded in the room.
"Daddy!"
"Do'er wakes up! Madam... God bless you, it's so good!"
Duan Rong spoke with a choked voice. Su Li stood at the door and did not disturb the family of three. She turned around and asked the Duan family's housekeeper to arrange for her to rest.
A moment later, the Duan family's back hall.
Duan Rong and his wife brought their daughter over. Duan Rong's eyes were still a little red, and it was obvious that he loved this daughter very much.
The youngest daughter of the Duan family is named Duan Yuan, nicknamed Dou'er. When she saw Su Li sitting on the Taishi chair in the back hall and resting with her eyes closed, her big dark eyes rolled around without showing timidity. She followed her parents' previous instructions, He walked quickly and obediently to Su Li, knelt down with a plop, and said crisply:
"Thank you so much, Dr. Su, for saving my life! My parents said that if you hadn't helped me, Dou'er's life would not have been saved! Dou'er will remember this kindness and love in his heart and will never forget it!"
Su Li opened her eyes and gently
He laughed, stretched out his hand to help the little girl up, raised his head and said: "The master and madam are so polite, we are just doing a fair deal."
"Doctor Su's words are wrong!"
Duan Rong waved his hand and said seriously: "This matter may not be worth mentioning to you, but it is a great favor to me and my wife! My wife has already told me your request. Although our Duan family has been rooted here for thousands of years, it is recorded in the family classics that the dry well does not belong to our Duan family. If you want to go in, our Duan family will never stop you. We will also send someone to meet you at the mouth of the well if there is any need. , just say it!”
"Master Duan is really generous."
Su Li sighed in praise, shook his head and said with a smile: "I have no other requirements, I just hope that entering that dry well will not cause you any trouble."
"No trouble, no trouble. Dr. Su, come with me. I will take you to the ancestral temple..."
Duan Rong has a gentle temper but is very decisive in his actions. In less than half a stick of incense, Su Li was already standing in front of the gate of the Duan family's ancestral temple and saw the dry well overgrown with weeds.
"I heard from my ancestors that this well has been abandoned for thousands of years, but the wellhead is still there. Maybe there is something extraordinary about it."
Duan Rong explained on the side, but he didn't think Su Li could find anything. In his wife's description, Su Li became a wandering doctor who loved to hear strange things and wandered around. His medical skills were extremely superb. His daughter could meet such a miraculous doctor to treat her. What a great blessing!
When Su Li heard Duan Rong's words, he walked to the well and pulled away the thick yellow weeds. The edge of the well came into view. The patterns and words that may have once been meaningful on them have been left bare after the baptism of time. stone surface.
"The entrance to the ancestral land is so damaged?! It seems that no one has ever entered the ancestral land in these thousands of years."
Heilian screamed strangely in the ring, but Su Li turned a deaf ear and did not go down the well immediately. Instead, he turned to Duan Rong and smiled: "After all, this is your ancestral temple. It would be disrespectful for me to go down the well rashly. Can you please let me be like the one in the ancestral hall?" Sticking incense, would you like to apologize?"
When Duan Rong heard this, the initial feeling of disapproval in his heart immediately disappeared. A smile appeared on his face and he said: "Doctor Su is really thoughtful. This way I can explain to my ancestors. I will order people to prepare it right away." !”
Duan Rong turned and left, and only Su Li and the dignified woman were left in the ancestral temple.
The atmosphere froze for a moment. Su Li looked at the nervous and dignified woman and asked with a smile, "You haven't asked her her name yet?"
The dignified woman forced a smile and said, "My surname is also Duan, and I am from the same family as my husband."
Su Li nodded, did not continue to ask, and turned to look at the densely packed plaques in the ancestral temple.
Hei Lian heard this but couldn't help but think about it, "This little half-human, half-ghost baby also has the surname Duan. Could it be that he is the descendant of the intermarriage between the ghost royal family and the human race? Tsk tsk, tens of thousands of years have passed, and the bloodline is so mixed that I can't even recognize it. Whether she is the queen of the royal family or not, that’s all..."
Su Li's eyes flashed when she heard Hei Lian's words. Just as she was about to ask more questions, Duan Rong hurried in with an incense stick, and she suddenly stopped thinking.
So what if this Madam of the Duan family is really a descendant of the ghost royal family, it has little to do with her.
It's better to do less than to do more. At least she didn't want to cause any more trouble until she achieved her goal.
Under the watchful eyes of Duan Rong and his wife, Su Li picked up three incense sticks, lit them, offered them, and put them into the incense burner with rigorous and smooth movements.
After completing this step, Su Li no longer wanted to
Thinking about it, he walked to the dry well and opened a gap in the withered grass, jumped into it alone, and soon disappeared from the sight of Duan Rong and his wife.
"Although there is a cave under this well, there is nothing special. I think Dr. Su will return in a few days. Madam, let's go and come back in two days."
Duan Rong said, but the dignified woman shook her head, "I want to stay here and pray for Dou'er."
Duan Rong was startled for a moment, then a look of emotion appeared in his eyes, "Madam is interested, I will send someone to make arrangements right away."
…
But it was said that Su Li quickly landed after jumping into the well.
It was pitch black at the bottom of the well, with no light coming in. Although Su Li could see clearly, he still followed Hei Lian's request and took out a lamp to light it and held it in his hand.
"The entrance to the ancestral land is deep here, but the entrance cannot be sensed by the spiritual sense. It must be observed with the naked eye. Take a good look. My spiritual body can at most help you point the direction, but I don't have eyes to help you see."
Su Li nodded gently and followed the moist passage slowly deeper. The sound of dripping water that occasionally came to mind came to her ears, but no other sounds came, as if she was isolated from the world.
"The entrance to the ancestral land, could it be like a gate..."
Su Li thought to herself. The spiritual stone lamp in her hand was lit with a sky crystal, illuminating an area of about three feet around, which was exactly the width of the passage. She didn't need to stay in one place for too long.
A few hours passed in the blink of an eye, and Su Li's road came to an end, but nothing was gained.
Although the space under the ground is strangely large, it is just as Duan Rong said, there is nothing surprising about it.
Su Li took a breath and looked very calm.
It makes sense that the entrance to the ancestral land can be hidden for thousands of years without being discovered. It is normal that it cannot be found again.
Next, Su Li continued to search back and forth, not letting go of any clues.
A few days passed in the blink of an eye, and Su Li stopped and sat on a bare stone, with helplessness in her eyes.
She still hadn't found the entrance to the ancestral land.
Mingming Black Face said that the aura in this area was so strong that one could definitely see something extraordinary with the naked eye. She searched every corner and confirmed it over and over again, but still found nothing.
Even so, Su Li had no intention of giving up.
After resting for a moment, Su Li's exhausted mind recovered. She was about to get up and continue searching, when suddenly she paused and raised her head to take a look.
At this moment, her pupils suddenly shrank and her back felt numb.
The passage was extremely high, enough to accommodate three or four people standing upright, so Su Li only saw pitch black when he looked up occasionally. But this time it was different. When she raised her head, she could vaguely see the outline of a large cave with her naked eyes, but when her consciousness dispersed, she saw a wall.
"Black Lotus!"
Su Li whispered in her heart, and Hei Lian immediately sprang out of the ring, raising her head with excitement as well. After the spirit body sensed the bare wall, it became even more excited, "What did you see?"
Su Li tapped her toes and wanted to fly up, but Hei Lian stopped her with a horrified voice. She could only focus her soul on her eyes and try to see the outline clearly.
The perfect state of Tianhun is indeed extraordinary. After she concentrated all the power of the soul into her eyes, the outline suddenly became clear in her field of vision, and every detail appeared.
In an instant, Su Li's face changed color and she had goosebumps all over her body.
"That's... a coffin!"
