Chapter 39 Dirty Building (3)

It was an old-fashioned short building with four floors in height. It was dusty and had white paint peeling off. Next to the gate was a twisted tree with a crooked neck. Only a few withered branches were left, hovering overhead. The crow fell down, screamed hoarsely a few times, and then flew away.

Si Cheng looked a little stunned. The phone he was holding vibrated. He picked it up suddenly, only to find a series of unfamiliar numbers. He hesitated for a moment, but still answered: "Hello?"

"Sicheng."

On the opposite side was Xia Lingge's voice.

"Senior?!" Si Cheng was excited, and his voice couldn't help but reveal joy, "It's great that I finally contacted you! How are you, Senior? What do you need me to do?!"

"Shh, please lower your voice first."

Xia Lingge nestled into a corner of the load-bearing wall, glanced at Fang Heli who was protecting her, and said slowly and clearly: "Where are you now?"

"I'm in front of a building." Si Cheng looked up at the dilapidated building and said, "This is a four-story building with about ten households on each floor. But now it's decadent and empty. I don't know if it's It’s not the building you mentioned, senior sister.”

Xia Lingge closed her eyes slightly and tried to digest the information he provided. She rubbed the edge of the iron bucket with her fingertips and thought for a while: "Look for any red liquid."

"Red liquid?" Si Cheng was confused when he heard this, and couldn't help but turn his head and look to both sides. There were crows falling on the cracked mud, but it didn't look like there was any water in it.

"Okay, I'll look for it."

Xia Lingge wanted to remind him again, but Fang Heli poked her arm and kept shaking her head. She raised her head and saw Chen Shu, who was sitting in the corner, had regained his strength and was about to start the next round of smashing the door. She looked back and whispered: "Don't Why are you looking for red water and red water stains?"

Just as Si Cheng was about to ask about the red water stains, the call was already hung up. He looked at the unfamiliar number and was hesitating whether to save it, feeling a useless pressure on his shoulders.

"How? Any clues?"

He Zhinian was out of breath from running.

Sicheng put away his cell phone quietly, looked at the dilapidated and strange building in front of him and said, "I looked around and found this building, and my senior also called me just now and said she was looking for red water stains. "

"What red water stains." He Zhinian frowned, "By the way, that aunt just now was Li Zhizhi's mother. She said that a girl named Qin asked her to bring Xiaolingzi here, so she was designated to be Qin Keqing. Damn it. , If I had known, I should have killed her in the game."

Sicheng asked: "Where is Mother Li now?"

"She wanted to find Li Zhizhi, and I didn't know how to tell her, so I called Uncle Xia." He Zhinian sighed, "Leave professional matters to professionals. Our main task now is to rescue Xiao Lingzi." .”

Sicheng nodded, but this building didn't have many floors, but it covered a very large area. Regardless of whether Xia Lingge was really trapped in this building, they didn't know how to start with the red water stains. , how to find.

"Did Senior Sister mention the word [props]?" He suddenly asked He Zhinian as he remembered something.

He Zhinian nodded: "Is there any problem?"

Sicheng said: "I remember that if [props] are used, the player must face the player when using them. Qin Keqing brought the senior sister here and was able to knock out Mother Li. She must not be the only one here. Footprints, first Look for footprints and see if there are any red water stains that my senior mentioned."

He Zhinian nodded in agreement: "That makes sense, he is indeed my little brother."

There was no one in the old area, and the accumulated soil was layer after layer. They walked into the unit door, and the falling dust was mixed with small spiders. He Zhinian stepped on the spider to death, waved the dust, and coughed: "Qin Ke Why did Qingze choose such a crappy place?"

Sicheng didn't say anything. He squatted down and wiped the ground with his fingertips. Although there were fine particles, it was obviously much looser than the one-foot-thick dust at first glance.

He clapped his hands and lowered his gaze to the stairs: "Let's go, this is it."

They walked up and around the first, second, and third floors until they reached the fourth floor. The dust on the fourth floor was thicker, but the footprints on the ground were more messy and clear, with some dark red traces mixed in, extending to In front of room [-].

Sicheng and He Zhinian looked at each other and hurried over. The paint-peeling room number was shaky. A thick iron chain was wrapped around the door handle several times, and a huge iron lock was tightly clasped.

"right here."

He Zhinian raised his hand and knocked on the door: "Xiao Lingzi! Xiao Lingzi, can you hear me? Answer me!"

dong dong dong dong-

The dull and loud knock on the door disturbed everyone in the room. Chen Shu stood up quickly and looked at the dull door with a vigilant expression.

"What, what's wrong?" Zhao Xiaohong's face turned pale and her voice was trembling.

Chen Shu's eyes were a little complicated: "Maybe we made too much noise and disturbed some game monster, please don't..."

Before he finished speaking, Xia Lingge walked slowly to the door and stood still. Regardless of the noisy uncles and aunts behind her, she raised her palm and pointed at the door with a loud slap.

thump—

The shock made He Zhinian tremble, and he turned to look at Sicheng: "Just now... the door rang, right?"

Sicheng nodded firmly.

"Great, then let's..." He Zhinian rolled up his sleeves halfway, and suddenly thought of something and felt something was wrong. "Didn't Xiao Lingzi say that she was in a copy? Then how could the door of this reality ring?" "

Si Cheng choked up when asked and shook his head: "I don't know, but no matter what, you have to open the door first."

"It's simple." He Zhinian squatted down to study the iron lock, then took out a thin piece of iron wire from his pocket, inserted the wire into the keyhole, put his ear close, and listened carefully to the sound of the wire twisting back and forth.

Sicheng raised his hand and tapped on the door a few times according to the pattern of three long and one short, and then did nothing more.

"You can go out."

Xia Lingge listened and responded to him with a rhythm of three long and one short, and turned back to the other three people.

Chen Shu was surprised: "You..." His eyes fell on Fang Heli who had his head buried, and he immediately understood everything, "You..."

There was indescribable helplessness and annoyance in his tone.

"There is no other way anyway, right?" Xia Lingge turned her back to him and said calmly, "If uncle is really afraid that it is a game trap, I will stand in front. If the monster comes, he will definitely bite me first. You can take the opportunity to sneak out. .”

"Girl." After hearing this, Zhao Xiaohong couldn't help but wanted to say something, but she opened her mouth but swallowed it.

'Crack-' There was a sound of the iron chain falling to the ground. He Zhinian looked at the rusty door and nodded to Sicheng: "Open it."

Sicheng bent his knuckles and knocked on the doorframe again, then placed his right hand on the doorknob and twisted it down slightly.

At the same time, Xia Lingge's hand fell on the door handle and gently pushed it outward.

The door was opened through a gap, and the gap continued to expand with the force, until the door was fully opened and they were stunned.
