Chapter 798: The Secret of the City

Xiao Ya felt a little uneasy in her heart when she saw Ye Cheng's crazy move. She didn't know what Ye Cheng was doing with such crazy digging in the sand? Even if there is a well underneath, then what is there to be curious about. Puzzled, she asked, "Ye Cheng, did you find anything?" ”

Ye Cheng said while digging quickly: "I'm not sure yet, let's dig it up first and take a look."

After speaking, Ye Cheng buried his head and dug frantically, his hands were like excavators equipped with electricity, and he was tired, so he swung violently, throwing the wet yellow sand in front of him behind him.

Xiao Ya, who saw this situation, was not idle, and she also used her ice crystal jade hands to help throw sand.

After some effort, the two of them dug a one-meter-deep pit in front of them of the yellow sand, and a well was exposed in the pit. The wellhead is not very large, only about forty or fifty centimeters in diameter. However, the wellhead was damaged and filled with yellow sand.

There was also water gushing up from the well, which soaked the yellow sand on the surface of the wellhead.

After the sand digging was stopped, you could see that water slowly seeped out of the wellhead, and finally accumulated into a puddle of water.

Ye Cheng put his right hand on the water again, the water did not cover the back of his hand, but he could feel the coldness of the water on the palm of his hand.

He raised his right hand, then stared at his right palm. No need to think about it, such cold water must be groundwater. Judging from the seeping water, this groundwater is abundant.

But this was not enough to verify the idea in Ye Cheng's heart, so he shook his right hand, and then said, "Let's go, let's go to them and have a look"

After speaking, Ye Cheng stood up in a hurry, and then turned around and ran in the direction of the five apprentices not far behind him.

Xiao Ya hesitated, but quickly relieved herself and followed Ye Cheng.

Stepping on the dry yellow sand, it is difficult to walk with your feet and eyes in the yellow sand. But Ye Cheng was not stopped by this difficulty, and he quickly came to the five apprentices.

In front of the five apprentices, Ye Cheng squatted down and looked at the pit dug by the five apprentices.

In the center of the pit there is still a borehole, which is also about forty or fifty centimeters in diameter, and is still filled with sand. The surface of the sand is still full of water, which still seeps out of the well.

Ye Cheng put his hand in the water, and he could still feel a cold feeling in his palm.

Xiao Ya also came to her side, she lowered her head and asked, "How is it?" ”

"The situation is the same"

After feeling the coldness of the well water, Ye Cheng stood up and looked at Xiao Ya with a solemn face. At this time, everyone gathered from all directions, with solemn looks on their faces, as if they had made some important discoveries.

Bai Yingping stood behind Ye Cheng and said, "Ye Cheng, there are many wells in this town, and I found four or five in that direction."

Beimao chimed in: "I also have seven or eight wells."

The big boss said: "There are also more than a dozen wells with my sister."

So many wells suddenly aroused everyone's doubts. How can a desert city have so many wells? Desert cities should be water-scarce, and even wells should be extremely scarce.

Bai Yingping really couldn't figure it out, so he asked suspiciously: "It's so strange that there are so many wells, Ye Cheng, what do you think?" ”

Hearing Bai Yingping's question, Ye Cheng was not in a hurry to answer. He turned to look at the well he had dug with Xiao Ya earlier, which was no more than 10 meters away from the well, that is, a street away. Judging from the surrounding bombed-out brick walls, the two wells should be in the middle of two households.

With such a close distance, and a desert city, why can two families each have a well?

This reminded Ye Cheng of the thoughts that surrounded his heart before.

One or two wells weren't enough to prove his inner thoughts right, but there were so many wells on all sides that there was enough reason to prove it.

It's just that the most direct evidence is still missing, and it takes a person to get this evidence.

Ye Cheng quickly turned to look at Bei Mao on his left hand, and said seriously: "Brother Bei Mao, I want to ask you for a favor"

"Tell me, what do you want me to do?"

Bei Mao readily agreed, and Ye Cheng certainly did not hesitate. He took a few steps forward, a few meters away from the well. Then he looked down at the dry yellow sand on the ground and said, "I want you to dig down here and see if it's a river down there."

"River!"

Everyone was shocked! One by one, they looked at Ye Cheng dumbfounded. Their inner thoughts are the same, how can there be a river under the desert here, this is simply impossible.

So Bai Yingping held an attitude of disbelief, and said with a slightly hideous expression: "How is this possible, the desert is so dry, how can there be a river below?" ”

"Believe me, when I make sure that the river is below, I will explain it to everyone" Ye Cheng looked at Bai Yingping with a serious face. Now he doesn't want to explain too much, he just wants to make sure that what he thinks in his heart is right or not.

And Bei Mao saw Ye Cheng's serious attitude on the side, and he had an idea in his heart. He believed in his heart that Ye Cheng had a clear direction to ask him to do this, so he didn't think about refusing.

After thinking about it, Beimao took out a shovel from behind him and burst out with divine energy, and then quickly evolved his divine power into the appearance of a mouse.

Aiming at the brown divine strength out of the corner of his eye, Ye Cheng knew that it was Bei Mao bursting out, so he quickly turned to look at Bei Mao and admonished: "Brother Bei Mao, you must be careful when you dig down, if you hit something hard, stop immediately"

"Hmm," Beimao nodded.

After getting Bei Mao's consent, Ye Cheng took two steps back, and then shouted again: "Let's all work together to throw the sand outward, throw a big hole, try not to let the sand bury Brother Bei Mao too deeply"

Although everyone still had doubts, they didn't have the slightest doubt about Ye Cheng's arrangement, and they all began to gather in a circle, and then squatted down and waved their hands to throw sand out.

Beimao also seized the time to use the rat's evolutionary ability to burrow into the sand. Because the sand was soft, the hole dug by Beimao was quickly covered.

One man drilled into the sand, and eleven people threw sand outside.

With everyone's efforts, after a few minutes of struggle, a huge sand pit was revealed. The pit is about three meters deep and more than a dozen meters in diameter. If you don't throw that long diameter, you can't dig a pit three meters deep.

And just as everyone was digging the pit to catch their breath, a head suddenly appeared in the center of the pit.

The five apprentices were the first to notice this, and as they ran to the middle, they shouted, "Little master, look! ”

"Look at the middle, Brother Beimao is out"

Hearing the shouting, Ye Cheng hurriedly looked at the center of the deep pit. Sure enough, Beimao's head was exposed, and after it was exposed, he stopped moving, as if he had collapsed. This situation frightened Ye Cheng, and he quickly ran over.

Ye Cheng didn't have time to check Beimao's situation, and immediately knelt on the sand and began to throw sand with both hands. At the same time, he commanded: "Quick, quickly throw the sand away and rescue Brother Beimao"

The five apprentices also knelt down in a panic.

At this time, Bei Mao made a weak voice and said, "Ye Cheng, you are right, there is indeed a river under the town."
