"Huh? Why were the stones here moved away?"

Several villagers bravely stepped forward to check.

However, he found that the huge rock that was pressing down the well mouth actually flew to a place ten meters away from the well mouth.

"Who did this? Was it a fairy messenger?"

Several people speculated endlessly.

One of the villagers said awkwardly: "I heard from the older generation that there is a monster sealed in this well. Now that the stone has been moved, will it be possible..."

He wondered if a monster had escaped.

Another villager said, "The Demon Locking Tower we just saw is probably where the immortal is fighting the monster!"

He had just finished speaking when a sound suddenly came from the well.

"Let me out! Let me out!"

"Who? Who's talking?"

Several villagers jumped in fright like frightened rabbits and then stood huddled together.

The voice was hoarse and did not sound like a human voice.

They waited for a while in suspicion, and suddenly they heard the voice shouting again:

"Let me out! Didn't you hear me?"

"who!"

Several people were startled again, and one of them said, "That sound seemed to come from the well."

The other people felt it carefully for a while and found that it was indeed true.

They looked at each other and saw horror in each other's eyes.

The monster is in the well!

"Run! Go inform the village chief!"

No one dared to go near the well and look down.

They were afraid that the monster would capture them.

Anyway, they have no say in this matter.

Why not call the village chief and everyone to come and check it out.

Soon, several people disappeared.

Two quarters of an hour later.

A group of people rushed over on the road.

Some of them were holding sticks, some were holding farm tools, and everyone was fully armed and ready for battle.

The village chiefs of the three villages on the west bank, led by the village chief of Shufu Village, stood at the front of the crowd.

"Shuanzi, did you really hear the sound coming from the bottom of the well?"

Luo Quan, the village chief of Shuifu Village, asked.

The first few villagers who heard the sound nodded hurriedly.

"Yes, Village Chief. We first saw the Queen's Demon Locking Tower appear here from afar, and then we came over to check it out, and then we heard the strange sound coming from the well."

Luo Quan said "hmm".

After thinking for a moment, he said, "Second Dull, go and take a look!"

The young man named Erduzi pointed at himself and said in disbelief: "Me?"

"If not you, who else could it be! You are the fastest runner on the entire West Coast. If there is real danger, who can outrun you?"

That’s what they say, but, that’s a monster!

It has been passed down from generation to generation on the West Coast that a monster is suppressed in the dry well.

If that monster comes out, it will start a killing spree!

However, what is strange is why Shuanzi and the others heard the sound but did not see the monster?

Could it be that the monster hasn't come out yet?

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but become a little bolder.

Under Luo Quan's pressing gaze and everyone's expectant eyes, Erduzi held his breath and walked forward with a heroic and confident look.

He felt that he must be like a hero now!

Soon, he arrived at the dry well.

He took a deep breath and then jerked his head forward.

Just as everyone was sweating with fear in their hearts, they heard Erduzi's surprised voice:

"It's a tower! It's the Demon-Locking Tower! At the bottom of the well is the Queen's Demon-Locking Tower!"

The scene of the pagoda suppressing the river monster was seen not only by the villagers on the east bank, but also by the villagers on the west bank.

To this day, they still feel passionate when they think of that mythical scene.

Who in the entire Yudu Mountain doesn't know about this? Who doesn't worship the Wanbao Goddess?

Some people were even so skillful that they carved out pagoda models out of wood as soon as possible.

Nowadays, children’s favorite game is to act out the scene of using a pagoda to suppress a river monster.

All adults would smile knowingly when they saw them holding the small tower model and shouting in a tender voice, "You bold monster, I will take you in today."

Erduzi naturally recognized the dark golden tower body at a glance.

That's why he was so excited.

This is the magical pagoda!

It’s the treasure of Queen Wanbao!

Such a treasure was actually in this well, only three feet away from him.

When the others heard this, they all came forward.

The dry well that no one dared to approach was suddenly surrounded by a crowd of people.

"It is indeed the Demon Locking Tower!"

Village chief Luo Quan also recognized him at a glance.

The people were very enthusiastic and shouted: "Let me see! Let me see!"

"Don't crowd, don't crowd!"

"Have you looked at the ones in front? It's our turn behind now!"

Because the villagers' noise was so loud, the collective of resentment in the tower also heard it.

It yelled, "Stop making noise!"

As soon as this voice came out, it was like pouring a bucket of cold water on the crowd.

It dampened people's excitement a lot.

People stepped back again.

But since they only heard the voice but didn't see the person, people started to realize what was going on.

It seems that this monster was suppressed in the Demon Locking Tower!

People's fear was alleviated a lot.

Someone boldly asked toward the well mouth: "Are you a monster?"

The voice said angrily: "You ungrateful humans, when I get out, I will kill you!"

Hearing the owner of the voice say this, people were all relieved.

Fortunately, this ferocious monster was suppressed by the Demon Locking Tower.

Otherwise the consequences are unimaginable.

But what about this ungratefulness it talks about?

The villagers were confused.

When has a monster ever done us a favor?

It’s almost like having a grudge!

A straightforward villager couldn't help but retort:

"You're talking nonsense! It was you who killed people indiscriminately back then, so our ancestors asked the magician to suppress you. How have you done us any favors?"

Some young people of the new generation did not know about this and asked the elders around them for advice.

It turned out that two hundred years ago, a rare drought occurred at the foot of Yudu Mountain.

In order to find water, the ancestors of the villagers dug wells everywhere, and by chance someone dug a well here.

Unexpectedly, the water did not come out, but the monster came out of the well first.

As soon as the monster came out, it shouted for murder and revenge, and then started killing indiscriminately.

Fortunately, there was a wandering Taoist priest who happened to live in the village at that time, so he cast a spell to suppress the monster.

The huge stone with runes painted on it was the work of a Taoist priest.

Because this story was so bizarre, it was passed down from generation to generation.

Hearing this, the young people also became angry.

He yelled, "You monster, you are so good at confusing right and wrong! It was you who killed people indiscriminately back then, but now you are saying that we are repaying kindness with enmity?"

The resentful collective in the tower also said angrily: "Then do you know what we did for your ancestors more than three hundred years ago? How did your ancestors treat us?"

After hearing what the monster said, the shouting young man was suddenly stuck.

This... more than three hundred years ago... wasn't that when our ancestors first came here?

Did this monster already exist at that time?

Village chief Luo Quan, who was listening, stood up at this time, cupped his hands and said:

"We don't even know who you are, so how can we know what happened many years ago?"

The being in the tower snorted coldly and said:

"Listen carefully, we are the mules your ancestors brought from Luo and Li villages!"

That being then said sternly:

"After your ancestors used us to their advantage, they cruelly slaughtered our bodies and ate our flesh, and then left our bones here. Don't you think this is ungrateful?"
