I toned down my excitement and asked, "what is the second kind of punishment?" My voice was hoarse and seemed to be frightened by the thought in my heart.

Witch Yan looked at me, sighed, nodded her head slowly. I immediately remembered what Xueer looked like in the second photo: her little body was hanging in midair with a weird smile on her face. She was tied on to an old locust tree tightly by wire, and beneath her was an ancient well that was too black to see the bottom.

I stood up excitedly: "impossible, how can Xueer be punished in this way, she didn’t even been to her hometown at all." In fact, I knew that Xueer had been here, but she was just a baby in the arms. How could she capable to do anything that desecrate the ancient well? Not only Xueer, but also me was not able to by then, It took at least several people to lift up the slates on top of the ancient well.

Witch Yan also showed doubts, said with a bitter smile: "Ah, I have no idea either. All I could do is merely taking care of Xueer carefully, wait and see if we can find a trace of hint. "

Aunt Li stood up and started to comfort me. After a long time, I finally sat down decadently, but my heart could never calm down, because I was very scared. Witch Yan was very powerful, but it seemed that she had nothing to do with this ancient well. Both Aunt Li and phenix were also powerful as well as Witch Yan. It was hard to tell which one was better among three of them. Was it impossible to deal with the problem of ancient well?

That was the first time, I had a slight doubt about this tough combination.

Aunt Li sat down beside me and patted me on the shoulder. "Don't think in a negative way. Your ancestors are very united. They are trying their best to suppress the things under the ancient well even though they can’t reincarnate anymore. So Xueer will be fine."

I saw a glimmer of hope. I raised my head and asked for more detail, sure enough, that what I had just seen was not an illusion; it was people who passed away in village suppressing evil spirits, and no wonder I did not feel any malice in those ghosts. But what's under the ancient well? Was it evil? But according to Witch Yan’s word, it would not kill people without reason, otherwise the people in the village had already run away. Was it good? But it killed a lot of people and made Xueer suffer without a reason.

I didn't know, but there's no need to know, whatever it was, it's going to hurt Xueer so it was my enemy. Furthermore, ancestors chose to suppress it rather than reincarnate. I trust the judgment of ancestors, especially after the experience of Chen Erwa, let me feel the love of the elders to the younger generation.

I opened my mouth and said, "Witch Yan, Aunt Li, what are we going to do now?"

The eyes of Witch Yan became strange, as if there was a kind of fanaticism in it, just as the stargazers saw their stars. "I am sorry for you," she said slowly. "now I will find out what this spirit is and avenge for you." Her voice was very gentle, that made goose bumps appeared on my skin. After all, if elderly people spoke in this way, it would always make other people hard to adapt to it, of course, wrong was us.

Throwing away the emotional color of the words of Witch Yan, I was quite agreed with her opinion. We certainly should figure it out in order to save Xue’er, moreover I still had a vague idea in my heart. That was, could I find out why I received those photos and the original source of the photos through this case?

Was it enough if I only relied on Witch Yan? I could not help looking to Aunt Li. She smiled at me: "I am also interested in it, it looks thatphenix would not miss it too." then she nodded at me.

Her words were obviously aimed at me which made my face hot. I felt shame about my thinking. But in order to save Xueer, I could do anything even doing bad. As Aunt Li had made me a promise, ghost house would definite help. If Aunt Li, Witch Yan plus Phoenix were unable to suppress that so call “god” in ancient well, I didn’t believe ghost house would just standing by and watching.

When I slept in Lulu's room, I knew the number of ghosts on the third floor, not far from 20, which was a very powerful force.

Couldn’t them solve the problem of a small rural village? Er, to tell the truth, I'm not sure, but it should be okay.

While I was wool-gathering, Aunt Li and Witch Yan had already been discussing it. I walked to them in haste. Just heard Witch Yan saying, “You know what Xueer said in the morning. It seems that a ghost was luring Xue`er through Xiao Hu. An urgent thing to do right now is to deploy traps here so that the so-called gods and ghosts can't get in or out freely. Even if these traps failed, at least they can warn us in time.”

Aunt Li nodded her head and said, "That's what we have to do, but I'm not very good at it, so deploying traps is depended on you."

Witch Yan's looked slightly embarrassed: "I can only deploy some simple trap, but it could be OK as alert alarm."

Then,Witch Yan set up traps with a little compliment from Aunt Li. Although I do not understand it, but when I look at it,I immediately realized that Witch Yan was really only known some simple tricks. She splashed rice mixed with incense ash, circled around the area of the tree crown of the old locust tree, then recited a strange spell, lit a yellow sheet of paper and put it in a bowl filled with half a bowl of water. Even though the paper was soaked in water, it was still creepy and burned to ashes. However it doesn't seem like a miraculous trick.

The bowl and water were quickly turned upside down on the ground at the joint of white rice. Finally the whole process was completed, it was very simple. It reminded me of building a house, which I saw in my hometown and other places, it should be praying for peace.

The corner of Aunt Li’s mouth twitched, and she was probably surprised to what she saw. Then she said, "Okay, let me go in and have a look."

"May I make a hidden-spirit spell for you?" Witch Yan asked.

Maybe because what Witch Yan had just done looked silly, Aunt Li shook her head, suggested us to keep alert to the surrounding. After that, she was walking to ancient well in a leisurely way.

She approached the ancient well step by step, I couldn't help but started to get nervous. Unknown things can always make people have bad associations. I was worrying that Aunt Li would suddenly disappear or something got out of the ancient well to attack her.

The facts proved that I was thinking too much. Aunt Li walked all the way to the edge of the ancient well without anything wrong. After touching the turquoise at the well head with her hand, she began to walk around the old tree, sometimes stopped to observe it carefully.

Until Aunt Li came back, there was still nothing happen, and there was no difference from any other places.

"How is it, Aunt Li? "I asked.

Aunt Li shook her head, her face with puzzled: "It is strange, there is no Yin Qi or anything, but there is a very familiar feeling, I feel like I've seen it somewhere, but I cannot remember it now."
