No more than two floors.

Ruan Mudeng's heart skipped a beat, he hurried up a few steps and climbed up to the 26th floor.

He saw Zhang Bilin and a tall young man dressed as a hotel security guard in a dark blue uniform stacked up and down on the stairs in an awkward posture. They apparently slipped on the steep stairs and both rolled down. Fortunately, both of them were still alive, but the security guard who was on the bottom seemed to have passed out because his head hit the iron railing.

"Miss Zhang, how are you doing?"

The young man hurried forward, trying to help Zhang Bilin who also fell badly.

"……my stomach……"

Zhang Bilin clutched her slightly protruding belly and let out a thin and painful urge. A line of blood slipped from the inside of her left knee and soaked through her flesh-colored thin stockings. Even in the dim light of the lifesaving escape, it was particularly shocking.

"I can't do this, I have to send you to the hospital immediately!"

For a pregnant woman, there is nothing more terrifying than this blood running from between the legs.Ruan Mudeng was anxious, and half squatted down, wanting to carry the person on his back.

However, at this moment, both of them heard a sharp and high-pitched "babbling" sound like a baby crying from the corridor.

Ruan Mudeng and Zhang Bilin froze as if under a fixed spell, their eyes moved towards the source of the sound bit by bit.

I saw a bloody head, like a worn-out dirty basketball, rolling out from the stairway half a floor higher than where the two were, with a face covered in red and black blood, which looked like a five or six-year-old boy , a pair of big eyes stared round, the pupils were like two ghostly will-o'-the-wisps, the small mouth opened, and a long and piercing sound came out from inside—"嘿嘿~"

&&&&&&&&&

A handful of copper coins have been lost, but the "something" chasing after the two of them cannot get rid of at all.

Ruan Mudeng's ability to ask himself is really limited. He couldn't take a bleeding pregnant woman up the stairs while dealing with the things behind him. middle.

The 26th floor is not the guest room department, but several multi-functional conference rooms. Of course, no one is using or guarding them at this time. Even the main power switch is turned off. There are no lights everywhere. A flashlight from the side.

However, acting in the dark is not a big problem for someone like Ruan Mudeng who has cultivated his "wisdom eye" to the purest level-and in dealing with "that thing", relying on the wisdom eye to distinguish yin and yang is far better than relying on the naked eye Much more reliable.

"Miss Zhang, you hide here, don't move or make a sound."

After Ruan Mudeng confirmed with his discerning eyes that "that thing" was still wandering in the corridor, he whispered to Zhang Bilin who had been stuffed into a large file cabinet by him.

"Uh, uh..."

Zhang Bilin couldn't cry anymore, she just covered her mouth tightly and nodded desperately.

"very good."

Ruan Mudeng raised a bag of white powder and splashed it all over Zhang Yinghou's body, then gently closed the cabinet door, and slipped out of the vacant conference room by himself against the base of the wall.

"Xiao Xiao, what should I do now?"

He stared at the black figure at the end of the corridor, lowered his voice, and asked on the other side of the phone.

"That thing, are you sure it came out of a child's head?"

There was a lot of noise on the other end of the phone, obviously the signal was very bad, and it took Ruan Mudeng a lot of effort to distinguish what the other party was saying.

However, as long as he heard Xiao Xiao's voice, Ruan Mudeng didn't feel too scared even if he was alone facing the evil thing that obviously exceeded his current ability.

Chapter 71, Eight, Ghost Letters 14

"I'm sure."

Although Ruan Mudeng kept the volume down as much as possible, his tone was very positive.

"I can see clearly that the thing came out of the young master of the Cheng family's neck. Although it is only the size of two fists and has no obvious entity, the yin energy on his body is very strong, and there is a tail like a comet trailing behind him. It is like a long shadow, it moves very fast, and it seems to fly, and its cry is very similar to the cry of a baby."

"..."

Xiao Xiao on the other side of the phone fell into a brief silence. If it wasn't for the "rustling" noise that is unique to poor signal, Ruan Mudeng almost thought that his master had dropped the line.

"I know what that is..."

Xiao Xiao let out a long sigh, and the voice on the phone seemed to be sighing and talking to herself: "I didn't expect...today, there are still people who would do this..."

&&&&&&&&&

Although it was a long, long time ago, Xiao Xiao still remembered that it was when he was twelve or thirteen years old, he was really still a young boy.

He was picked up by his master when he was still a baby, and then brought up by his senior brother Xiao Ning. Although these years have been in troubled times, he has been living in the Taoist temple on the mountain. Although he lives poor and simple day after day, at least No worries about food and clothing, coupled with not being deeply involved in the world, has not experienced too many joys and sorrows, and hardships in the world, and still maintains a half-baked and innocent temperament.

In the past two years, the war has subsided, and the villages and towns at the foot of the mountain are considered to be peaceful. Seeing that Xiao Xiao has grown up, senior brother Xiao Ning often takes him down the mountain, and lives in the town for a season. First, to help the three masters and apprentices earn their livelihoods, and second, to let him, a child-like junior, see the world and learn a lot.

But probably because of his personality, Xiao Xiao is a restless kid even in the town, and he soon got acquainted with a group of young people of the same age. Among them, the child king, I didn’t go to see a doctor to ask the hexagrams a few times with my senior brother, but I ran away after eating breakfast every day, and the waves were muddy and watery with a soil monkey when it was dark. like going home.

One day, Xiao Xiao took two boys who were a few years older than him to play by the river near the town, and accidentally found a bamboo forest nearby, with many bamboo fungus and mushrooms growing in it.

He has loved eating these since he was a child, so he took off his outer shirt and tied a net pocket, rolled up his sleeves, and the three of them played in the woods until evening. be lost.

Logically speaking, this bamboo forest is not very big, and the terrain is not complicated. In addition, although Xiao Xiao is young, she still knows some Taoist alchemy. It shouldn't be easy to be trapped and unable to find a way out.

But today he was really lost. Not only was he hungry and tired walking in the forest, but also for the first time he really felt the anxiety and panic of fear and powerlessness.

The three of them circled around from sunset to mid-moon. It was estimated that it was already midnight. The young people were exhausted, especially the two older boys. A slightly flat boulder, once sat down there, refused to stand up again, hugged his knees and cried with snot and tears, his appearance was so desolate.

Xiao Xiao also found a place to sit next to her, thinking in her heart, seeing that Senior Brother Xiao Ning hadn't returned at this point, he would definitely sense that something was wrong. Just wait here, counting on the other party to pick him up and go home.

Just when Xiao Xiao was thinking this way, he saw that there seemed to be a little light from a wind lantern not far away, and he heard the rustling sound of boots crushing fallen leaves and dead branches, obviously someone was coming.

Xiao Xiao immediately jumped up like a rabbit, and ran towards the source of the sound. While running, she still didn't forget to turn her head and wave to the two boys, signaling them to follow quietly, and don't make any noise.

Although they were walking in the dark in the forest, the moonlight was good tonight, and after all, they were all strong and healthy guys, and they were used to being outside. It took less than half a cup of tea for them to catch up with that cup of tea. Flickering lights.

It turned out to be the old widower carpenter who lived at the end of the village, and the young apprentice he had just accepted two years ago.

The old carpenter moved from a foreign country. It is said that he married a beautiful wife when he was young, but both of them died during childbirth. Since then, he has lived alone behind closed doors and has no relatives.He is good at craftsmanship, but his personality is withdrawn, and he is not young anymore. His knees suffered from wind and cold when he fled famine in the early years, and he walks a little lame. He has few acquaintances in the village. The little apprentice is said to be planning to teach to support himself in retirement.

At this time, I saw him walking in front tremblingly with a lantern in one hand, and suddenly asked: "Is there anyone in front?"

The little apprentice suddenly heard the master's question, he was startled, he didn't understand at all, he stammered and replied: "No, there is no..."

The old carpenter nodded, walked forward for a while, and suddenly asked, "Is there anyone behind?"

The little apprentice was baffled by what he heard, so he turned his head and looked back reflexively—tonight is the sixteenth day of the lunar calendar, there are no clouds in the sky, and the moon is very bright. With this glance, he happened to meet three little heads, all moving from one side to the other in unison. Leaning out from behind the clump of bamboos, he was staring at them curiously with his eyes wide open.

The little apprentice of the carpenter's family was only fourteen or fifteen years old. He fell back in fright and sat down on the ground. He almost didn't pee directly, and replied tremblingly: "There is someone! Master, there is someone behind me!" !"

Hearing what he said, the old carpenter also turned around, and sure enough, he saw the three and a half boys following behind, and heaved a long sigh on the spot.

"God's will... This is God's will..."

He shook his head with a wry smile, with both regret and a little bit of indescribably complicated relief in his voice.
