After leaving the door, Yang Shu went straight to the stairs.
He shouted loudly all the way, trying to wake up other people in the residential building.
The more chaotic the situation, the greater your chance of escaping.
However, there was no response at all.
The entire residential building was dead silent.
The wooden doors were tightly closed, making no sound, as if the poplar tree was the only living thing left in the entire residential building.
But he did not stop because of this, but ran quickly downstairs.
Da~da~
"Little brother, where are you?"
Li Xiaosha's footsteps and cold calling came from behind.
The frequency is obviously very slow, but Yang Shu can clearly feel that the sound is getting closer!
In the end, it was only a few meters away from me!
Yang Shu gritted his teeth, took two steps at a time, and went downstairs a little faster.
He didn't even dare to look back, he was afraid that if he slowed down a little bit, he would be completely doomed.
"Little brother~"
This time, right behind you!
A chill instantly rushed to Tianling Gai, and Yang Shu felt his hair stand on end.
What's even worse is that in his anxiety, Yang Shu stepped on the air and rolled down the stairs.
It hurts, it hurts!
All the bones in his body were wailing.
Severe pain came from all parts of the body, filling the entire mind.
But the poplar tree didn’t want to die.
The desire to survive and fear in his heart forced him to get up the moment he rolled to the ground.
The door is right next to you!
Yang Shu put his hand deep into his trouser pocket and tried to take out the sensor key to open the door and escape.
However, this touch made him completely despair.
The key is missing.
Looking back.
The key actually fell where it fell just now!
And now Li Xiaosha's voice is above her head. Rushing back to get the key will inevitably lead to a dead end.
In desperation, Yang Shu's thoughts changed rapidly and his eyes scanned around, looking for a place to hide.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up.
At the bottom of the stairs, there is a small cubicle!
Now that I can't escape, going upstairs again is a dead end.
The only option is to hide.
After hesitating for less than a second, Yang Shu hid directly when the sound above his head sounded again.
This compartment is very small and is used to store sundries. Yang Shu, an adult, is hiding in it and can hardly move.
The door of the compartment was a bi-fold door. After entering, Yang Shu directly picked up the mop at his feet and placed it across the gap of the door handle.
At the same time, he took out his mobile phone, opened his address book, clicked on the landlady's page, and prepared to make a call.
Ta...ta...
At this moment, the sound of footsteps sounded along with Li Xiaosha's voice.
She's on the first floor!
Yang Shu paused as he prepared to make a call.
His eyes were fixed on the crack in the door.
Footsteps kept lingering outside, and Li Xiaosha was looking for the poplar tree.
"Little brother~"
After a while, Li Xiaosha's voice sounded without any fluctuation in tone.
Yang Shu's body trembled suddenly.
She is very close to me!
His heartbeat began to accelerate crazily, and he unconsciously held his breath.
The crack in the door was slowly covered by a shadow.
This means Li Xiaosha is outside the cubicle!
Bang!
The wooden door shook violently.
She is holding the door open!!
Yang Shu's pupils widened and he covered his mouth and nose with his hands, fearing that he would make any sound.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The door shook violently a few more times, but because the mop got stuck on the door handle, it was not opened in the end.
Maybe I gave up, maybe I felt that the poplar tree was not here.
After waiting for a while, Yang Shu saw the shadow outside the door slowly leaving.
The footsteps sounded again and gradually floated upstairs.
It wasn't until the sound gradually drifted away that Yang Shu breathed a sigh of relief, and then dialed the landlord's phone number with trembling hands.
The first call was not picked up.
Yang Shu was worried and called again.
Finally, the second call was answered.
"Who?!"
The landlady's voice was full of emotion, as if she was dissatisfied with being woken up from her sleep.
Yang Shu lowered his voice and said.
"The landlord is me. I am the tenant on the fifth floor today."
"It's you, why are you calling me so late at night?"
"The girl who lives in the haunted house, Li Xiaosha, she is a ghost!"
"Hey, young man, it's not easy to talk nonsense. Don't talk nonsense just to get out of the rent."
"Auntie, I didn't lie to you, it's true. I beg you, please help me call the Bureau of Secrets and ask them to rescue me!"
"What you said...is true?"
"Why did I lie to you? Hurry up, that Li Xiaosha is looking for me. If she finds me, I will be finished!"
"Okay, okay, then I'll make a call right away. I'll tell the people from the Bureau of Conspiracy where you are hiding now, and they will go rescue you first."
"Okay, I'm hiding in the small cubicle below the first floor. Hurry up, I heard her footsteps coming down again."
"So, you are there."
When Yang Shu heard this sentence, Li Xiaosha's voice was heard on the other end of the phone.
His face suddenly turned pale, and his phone fell to the ground.
Outside the door, footsteps were getting closer.
Bang!
The wooden door exploded!
........
Ten minutes later.
The old landlady and Li Xiaosha stood side by side.
"Is this the seedling that Ling Daozi said has some talent? It's really not scary."
At this time, Li Xiaosha had returned to the young girl she was when she first met Yang Shu, playing with her hair.
The old landlady on the side laughed.
"Young man, it's normal."
"But with some brains and decisiveness, such people are suitable to join our Guishen Sect."
"That old guy Ling Daozi was beaten to death by people from the Bureau of Trickery. We can't just let this matter go."
"These stubborn guys are clinging to the old ways. Now we only need to wait for the sect master to break through to the golden elixir stage, so that the conspiracy can completely disappear."
"Let's arrange that matter next and let's give a big gift to the Bureau of Conspiracy."
"Let's start with the conspiracy bureau in Baishui City."
After saying that, the landlady turned and left.
After not taking two steps, his figure disappeared directly into the darkness.
Li Xiaosha was left alone, looking at the unconscious poplar tree at her feet, with light flashing in her eyes, not knowing what she was thinking.
.........
Baishui City, Secret Bureau.
"Lao Wang, have you become younger recently?"
On this day, when Wang Qimin just went to work, Chen Qiang came towards him and looked at him with a surprised look on his face.
"Really? I haven't always been like this."
Wang Qimin touched his beard and showed an expression of sudden realization.
"Eighty percent of it is because of shaving. It's rare but strange."
After that, without giving Chen Qiang a chance to speak, Wang Qimin carried him towards the office.
Seven days have passed since Wang Qimin started practicing inner alchemy.
Although it has not reached the first level yet, as it absorbs spiritual power, its body is getting better every moment.
Not only does my physical strength become more abundant, I no longer feel tired as before.
Even the skin has turned a lot whiter, and the white hair that originally sprouted on the top of the head has disappeared.
Chen Qiang is already the third person today to say that he has become younger.
But Wang Qimin didn't know how to explain his changes, so he could only change the subject and draw the other person's attention.
After the two of them arrived at the captain's office, Chen Qiang looked outside mysteriously, then closed and locked the door.
