I am not human

Liao Qingshu was taken aback by the young man's rhetorical question, and after a while he stammered: "That's... Xu Moyi, Director Xu, the personnel director of Shanhai Management Office..."

"Oh, you said Sister Mo Yi!" The young man was slightly taken aback, and after a while he suddenly laughed, "I didn't realize what you said about Director Xu. Sister Mo Yi is very powerful, although it is just a personnel matter Supervisor, actually, she takes care of everything."

After the young man finished speaking, he looked at Liao Qingshu and asked, "Sister Moyi said yesterday that a newcomer will come to the unit, is that you? Hello, my name is Lin, Lin Hongle, and I will be a colleague from now on. If you call me Xiaolin good."

Liao Qingshu secretly wondered if he was a colleague. After all, he hadn't signed his internship agreement yet, but he introduced himself seriously: "Hi, I'm Liao Qingshu."

"The name sounds nice, can I call you Xiao Liao?" Lin Hongle waved at Liao Qingshu, "Come on Xiao Liao, you go outside first, I'll turn off the lights."

Liao Qingshu nodded, and walked towards the door as promised, but just as she took a step, there was a "pop", and her eyes immediately fell into darkness.

He was taken aback, and when he regained his strength, he couldn't laugh or cry: "Xiao Lin, you turned off the light too early, and I'm still inside."

In the darkness, only Lin Hongle's voice sounded muffled: "It's not me, I haven't touched the switch yet."

After finishing speaking, I heard "ba da" and "ba da" several times in succession. I guess Xiao Lin was fiddled with the switch, and then he sighed in distress: "I guess the light tube is broken, and the switch doesn't work."

"Or, go out in the dark first, and find someone to fix it tomorrow." Liao Qingshu said.Xu Moyi's office is not big, and it doesn't have too many furnishings, so it's easy to get out. "And anyway, the lights in the hallway are still on, so you can still see..."

Just as Liao Qingshu finished speaking, there was another "pop", and the light outside the door dimmed and went out.

The surrounding space was completely dark, and Lin Hongle's confused voice sounded a few steps away: "I'm going, what's the matter?"

"Probably... the light tubes in the corridor are also broken." Liao Qingshu said uncertainly, vaguely feeling that something was wrong.

He took out his mobile phone to try to illuminate it, but unexpectedly found that the mobile phone was no longer connected to the signal.Lin Hongle didn't care about this: "There is a barrier here, it's normal."

Is that right?

Liao Qingshu frowned secretly remembering the phone call Xu Moyi answered before leaving.However, before he could say anything, Lin Hongle suddenly spoke again, urging him to leave quickly.Not knowing if it was an illusion, Liao Qingshu felt that his voice was a little too anxious.

Both of them turned on the flashlight function of their mobile phones, walked out of Xu Moyi's office carefully, walked through the corridor, entered the hall, and walked towards the door.As expected, all the lights in the office hall were turned off and plunged into darkness, but Lin Hongle seemed to be familiar with the layout of the office hall. He walked to the door in a few steps in the darkness, held the doorknob, turned it a few times, and cursed softly "Lying on the grass."

"What's wrong?" Liao Qingshu rushed up and asked.

"The door is locked and cannot be opened." Lin Hongle said through gritted teeth.With the light of the flashlight, Liao Qingshu noticed the strange anxiety on his face: "Then what should we do now?"

Lin Hongle didn't answer, but glanced around vigilantly, as if something would suddenly pop out from the darkness.Then he said: "I know there is a back door, let's go there and try."

"Try?" Liao Qingshu asked strangely, "Then there is a possibility of not being able to get out?"

"Everything is possible when people are behind their backs." Lin Hongle forced a smile, "Don't worry, if we really can't, we'll just smash the glass and jump out."

"Then you have to pay for it?"

"Who cares about him?" Lin Hongle said, turned around and walked back to the hall.Liao Qingshu hesitated for a moment, but chose to follow behind him.

At the end of the hall, there is a corridor on the left and right, Xu Moyi's office and bathroom are in the corridor on the right, and there are three other doors in the corridor on the left, all of which are tightly closed.Lin Hongle led Liao Qingshu to the deepest part of the corridor on the left. Liao Qingshu silently followed behind him, suddenly a door beside him opened and dragged him in.

"Ugh—" Liao Qingshu screamed, but her voice was tightly muffled by a big hand, and the other hand grabbed his arm and pulled him back until his back was stuck to a piece of paper. With a strong body.The darkness where you can't reach your fingers increases the fear of being attacked suddenly. Liao Qingshu was stunned for a few seconds before remembering to struggle. If you don't want to die."

Liao Qingshu paused.This voice is... Jiufang Ziyan?

Seeing that he had calmed down, the man let go of his hand.Liao Qingshu took two steps back, picked up the phone that had fallen on the ground, and pointed the light at the man—as expected, it was really that melon.

Jiufang Ziyan is still dressed in the daytime, but there are many wrinkles and damages on the clothes, and the sunglasses are also a little crooked. He looks very embarrassed, and with that expression like a melon, he looks even more ferocious.Noticing Liao Qingshu's stunned gaze, he gave a "cut" and said angrily, "Boy, do you know that you got into a big trouble?"

"……How to say?"

"Idiot, I made it into the Classic of Mountains and Seas in my dream!" Jiufang Ziyan's tone was full of impatience, "It's really capable, it's been so big on the first day, and Moyi is really getting better at finding talents."

Liao Qingshu consciously blocked the ridicule behind, and asked: "You mean I'm dreaming? What does it mean to dream of the Classic of Mountains and Seas?"

"Didn't Moyi tell you?" Jiufang Ziyan was surprised for a short while, seeing Liao Qingshu nodding, he became even angrier, and scolded Xu Moyi for being unreliable.At last, his rationality has not completely gone offline. After scolding Xu Moyi, he still knows to explain to Liao Qingshu: "The Book of Mountains and Seas is actually not just a book, but a space used to imprison mountains and sea beasts, you know that right? ?”

"Probably...know a little bit." That's what Xu Moyi told him.

"Considering that it will take time for you to understand, I won't go into details. You just need to know that this space is not completely disconnected from the human world. Some unlucky people are likely to come to this space in their sleep, and then Some mountain and sea beasts will take the opportunity to sneak into their dreams, and want to return to the human world by way—that is, the so-called 'smuggling', understand?"

Liao Qingshu nodded thoughtfully: "Then that Xiaolin..."

"It's just a mountain and sea beast deliberately approaching you." Jiufang Ziyan said, looking up at the door.Liao Qingshu looked around, only to find a piece of yellow talisman paper stuck behind the closed door.He curiously stepped forward to take a closer look, but just as he moved his face closer, there was a knock on the door behind the door panel.

Liao Qingshu took a step back in shock, only to hear Lin Hongle's anxious voice coming from outside the door: "Xiao Liao? Xiao Liao, are you in? If you are, answer back, Xiao Liao!"

Liao Qingshu didn't dare to make a sound, and only backed away step by step, until she reached Jiufang Ziyan's side.The knock on the door stopped after a while, and Liao Qingshu breathed a sigh of relief when he heard a violent impact behind the door, followed by Lin Hongle's sharp and slightly out of tune voice: "Little Liao, listen I said, no matter who you meet inside, don't trust him! Come out, and I will explain everything to you—”

At the end of his roar, his voice was no longer human, but more like a dog barking, and he couldn't make out what he was saying.The impacts outside the door panel came one after another, one blow was stronger than the other, Liao Qingshu reckoned that if it wasn't for the blessing of this yellow talisman, Lin Hongle might have already barged in.However, the situation was not optimistic for too long - as the collision outside the door became more and more intense, the yellow talisman behind the door gradually burned and turned into ashes little by little.

"This talisman won't hold up for too long, we have to find a way to get out!" Jiufang Ziyan said anxiously, turning his head to look at Liao Qingshu, "There is a window here, let's just jump out of it—damn! This is the time, What are you still fussing about?!"

"It's nothing... just want to make sure if I'm dreaming." Liao Qingshu answered while rummaging on the desk with the light of her mobile phone, took out a sharp pencil and pricked her skin twice, wrinkled Frowning: "It hurts, am I really dreaming?"

"Idiot!" Jiufang Ziyan cursed angrily, walked over quickly and dragged Liao Qingshu to the window, "I've explained so much to you, do you think I'm telling you a joke? If you don't leave now, you won't be able to leave You idiot—”

With one hand resting on the dusty window sill, he suddenly stopped talking.

A sharp pain came from his shoulder, and he turned his head in disbelief, only to see a pencil stuck on his right shoulder, piercing from the back to the front, with blood dripping from the sharpened tip.

Looking back, what imprinted in his eyes was Liao Qingshu who was still maintaining the piercing action, looking at him vigilantly, with a strange light flashing in his amber pupils.
