DRAGON IN MY WELL

"Hello, Randall! don't forget that the girl introduced by Emmy will be back in some days."

"I see .Mom, I am sweeping the yard".

"All right, go ahead with your business.

If you have a successful date with that girl, we can make a down payment to buy a new house in the county to save yourself from being looked down upon."

"Ok I'll hang up now."

Randall Mercer hung up the phone call and couldn't help sighing. He put his mobile phone in the trouser pocket.

But he didn't expect his phone to directly slid down because the pocket wasn't open.

Randall was flustered and hurriedly reached out to get the phone.

The mobile phone was specially bought for the date with that girl, which was with the value of his one month salary.

But due to how flustered he was he not only failed to catch the phone but knocked it further away.

What a coincidence! The phone fell directly into the dry well in the yard.

"shit..."Randall cursed in his mind.

He was stunned.

He couldn't describe what he was feeling.

If only this was an ordinary well ! In this way, he could climb down to pick up the phone.

But Atlas this wasn't an ordinary well...

It had existed for many generations, and the elderly called it Dragon -Locking Well!

The Dragon-Locking well a special place for suppressing the legendary evil dragon that made waves!.

It could be said without exaggeration that the whole village was founded for guarding this well.

Randall still remembered that when he was a child, his grandfather worshipped at the well every festival.

Of course, Randall didn't believe the superstition.

However, he was born and grew in the village, after all. He had heard the legend of the Dragon-Locking well many times, so he could not help feeling afraid.

At that moment, Randall didn't know what to do.

He had spent more than 6000 dollars buying the phone and got it less than one week ago.

The numbers of all his relatives, including his blind date partner were stored in the phone.

But the Dragon-Locking well...

"Shit! Anyway, go down!."

Finally, after struggling with his mind, Randall decided to go down the well and get the phone.

This well had run dry for centuries anyway. There was nothing in the well except that it was deeper.

Randall found a power bank with the function of lighting from his suitcase. Then he took hold of the rusty chains at the top of the well and went down.

There were four chains at the mouth of the well. As legend went, it was used for locking the the scaled dragon.

But looking at the rusty chains, Randall could not help curling his lips.

The chains were no bigger than his arm . How could they be able to tie down a dragon?.

Was it kidding?

However,it horrified Randall when he got down about 16 meters.

Looking down,he could just see four rusty chains extending into the dark. It made a shaking noise as if something terrible might happen at any moment, which made his hair stand on end.

Now that he had gone down and couldn't see anything but the darkness, he had to turn on the power bank and continue his descent.

Under this circumstance, time seemed to drag on for him. He seemed numb to the passage of time.

Randall didn't know how long his descent took but after a long time he felt his feet touch the ground.

It was the end!

But in the next second, after looking around he felt his breathe hitch in his throat and the hair behind his neck rose he could feel goosebumps pricking his skin.

At the bottom of the Dragon-Locking Well, there was a huge underground karst cave extending in all directions!

There was a dragon shaped skeleton with a length of at least 85 meters lying in the karst cave, which was tangled by four rusty chains!.

At that moment, Randall felt as though he was bombed, his heart jumped into his mouth and his intestine knotted in his stomach his legs were shaking visibly!.

"This is...a scaled dragon."

Randall was trembling his clothes was soaked wet by his sweat.

He pinched himself continuously but it wasn't a dream. It was reality!.

Where he was standing right now happened to be the head of the scaled dragon, which was bigger than a water tank!.

And his new graphite phone was lying in the dragon's head.

Randall swallowed hard the echo from the swallowing was loud as it reverberated in the quiet well.

He was shocked. His tongue sticked to his upper jaw.

A scaled dragon was really locked in the Dragon-Locking Well.

It took a long time for Randall to calm down. Feeling the stabbing pain in the hand, he looked down. His palm was worn and bleeding from the descent and the wound needed cleaning.

Then he went down to pick up the phone with shock.

But at the time of picking up the phone, Randall saw a milky white bead which was the size of an egg next to the phone.

In a moment, several fiction novels that he read came to his mind.

"Is this the scaled dragon's core in the legend?"

"Holy Jesus!" He sighed in his mind.

Randall quivered. Then without hesitation, he caught the bead.

The blood on his hand inevitably rubbed off on the bead.

When the bead got touched with blood, it immediately flew out of his palm and directly got into his body.

Although Randall was shocked, he discovered he was equipped with the power of inward vision.

He could not believe what he saw, the bead got into his belly and rotated slowly.

And with each turn of the bead, a tiny cyan energy poured into his limbs, which strengthened his body.

In a moment, Randall felt that he was now strong enough to tear a tiger or a lion into shreds!.

Then he picked up the phone with a cracked screen. With a slight squeeze the phone burst with snap and tempered glass rained everywhere in an instant.

" shit!"

Randall was surprised by this new power.

Fortunately, the sim card was not damaged. Otherwise, he would be in trouble.

"Randall... Randall!"

At this time, Mike Mercer, Randall's uncle, called his name in the yard.

Randall guessed that Mike came to invite him for lunch.

Mike called Randall several times, but Randall didn't reply. Then Randall heard Mike's complaints.

"it's time for lunch, but where's the brat?"

After a while Mike left the yard.

Randall had no time to explore the situation at the bottom of the well before. But now he had the opportunity, so he didn't need to hurry.

However, as soon as Randall got on the ground, he smelled a niff, which made him feel like vomiting.

He didn't know when there was some marrow -like impurities that came out of his body greasy and disgusting.

"Is this what is called vessel dredging?" he thought quietly in his mind.

He quickly ascended to the top the well, then he took out a set of clean clothes while pinching his nose close with one hand he raced to the river to take a shower.

The Mercer's Village was surrounded by mountains and rivers, which could be called a good place with treasures.

The villagers also made a living by fishing, so they were relatively rich. It was a pity that in recent years, the state issued a policy to ban fishing because of overfishing.

The villagers didn't fish anymore but left the village for a job in the city.

At that time, it was hot. Because it was just the time for lunch, Randall didn't meet many people on the way to the river.

several minutes later, a glittering river came into his view.

There was a boat harbor by the river where several old fishing boats were moored. Some birds rested on there.

The familiar scene made Randall smile. He could not help quickening his step.

But at this moment, the "scaled Dragon's Core"in his belly seemed to be stimulated. It suddenly rotated hard and seemed like a humidifier pumping water out of the air.

Even the quiet river was also affected.A great deal of mist rose from the river and it directly converged towards Randall.
