Chapter 168 Scary Dark Room

Zhang Ling cleverly hid in a corner not far away where debris was piled.

She clearly saw two security personnel approaching.

One of them was the security captain who couldn't understand Zhang Ling's Mandarin.

Another security guard said with a somewhat flattering smile:

"Captain, it seems we have been tricked by this bastard Xiao Wang again. Is there anyone here?"

There was a trace of dissatisfaction on the security captain's expression. In order to protect his face, he could only put on a smile and said:

"Be careful with your ship! No one is better. If you and I offend the old patriarch because of our negligence, neither you nor I will be able to reap the rewards."

"That's what the captain said!" The flattering security guard raised his head and glanced at the sky and said, "It's so hot today! Captain, we'd better go back as soon as possible. You are always the backbone of our brothers. Don't get another heat stroke."

The security captain obviously took these words very seriously.

He nodded with a smile and turned around to leave.

Suddenly, a yellow butterfly kite with a broken string floated in the sky.

Seeing it flying straight towards the place where Zhang Ling was hiding.

The two security guards were also attracted to the corner where Zhang Ling was because of the flying kite.

Her heart nearly jumped out of her throat when she saw this.

He took the initiative to fight out and broke in directly through the window to rescue Xiaodouzi.

Still, I was caught out by these two nasty security guards.

Just when she was making a decision, a strange gust of wind blew out, blowing the kite less than two meters away, making it turn around and fly to the feet of the security captain.

The captain glanced at the kite at his feet and said:

"Strange! Where did this thing come from?"

After saying that, he raised his foot and wanted to step on it a few times.

I want to vent the pent-up anger in my heart.

The security guard on the side quickly leaned over, picked up the kite from the captain's feet and said flatteringly:

"Captain, how wonderful! This kite with its broken string must be carrying a beautiful wish. And it happened to land at your feet. What does this mean?"

"What does it mean?" the security captain asked doubtfully.

The security guard continued to flatter him and said:

"It means that Captain, you must be the chosen one. In the near future, you will surely rise to great heights, rise step by step, and become a master that everyone envies."

The security captain took the kite, looked at it with a smile and said:

"Not bad, not bad! You are really good at talking. It's such an accident that you can tell such a story. However, I still like it very much."

"What a conscience! I just ask the captain that when he eats meat in the future, he will not forget to give the little one a bowl of soup."

When Zhang Ling heard what the security guard said, she looked disgusted and complained in her heart.

"Bah! Are you the only ones worthy of talking about your conscience?"

She hated the security guards for helping the old patriarch kidnap Xiaodouzi.

I can't wait to rush out and personally send these scumbags to prison to reflect on themselves.

But considering that Xiaodouzi is still suffering in the ear room.

The risk of doing this is simply too great.

She could only grit her teeth and endure it for the time being.

The security captain said "ok" three times in a row, and then the two of them smiled and prepared to turn around and leave.

Sudden!

A tile on the roof near Zhang Ling was shattered less than 30 centimeters from Zhang Ling's feet.

The two security guards who had just turned around and walked a few steps looked back again.

"Who? Who is where? Come out quickly, I have already seen you."

Zhang Ling is shocked!

Has she been discovered?

never mind!

Now that she was discovered, she stopped pretending for Xiaodouzi's sake.

A cat's meow stopped her impulse.

Follow the news!

It was as if a cat jumped from the eaves to the wall on the other side.

She recognizes this cat.

It happened to be the cat that protected her when she left Xi'er's room.

She smiled at the cat on the wall.

The security captain glanced at the cat pacing on the wall, shook his head and subconsciously walked towards the tiles.

Another security guard quickly stopped the captain and said:

"Captain, why are you going?"

Just as Zhang Ling's nerves relaxed, she became nervous again because of these words.

"Now that I saw it, I want to clean up the tile fragments." The captain turned around and explained.

Another security guard was unwilling to clean up, so he found a perfect reason:

"Captain, you said that as a security guard, you should always understand what your job responsibilities are? Cleaning the tiles seems to be a cleaning job."

The security captain was stunned for a moment and said with a smile:

"Okay. You're right. When you see the cleaning boss, ask them to send someone to clean it up. Let's go."

Zhang Ling looked at the retreating figures of the two security guards and couldn't help but cursed:

"Bah! Are you the only one qualified to talk about security responsibilities? I think you have probably forgotten your security responsibilities a long time ago."

As soon as she finished speaking, she vaguely heard Xiaodouzi's faint cry for help coming from the window again.

She really wanted to respond to Xiaodouzi's cry for help.

But she was worried that if the person guarding Xiaodouzi heard it, it would be terrible if she moved Xiaodouzi elsewhere.

In order not to make Xiaodouzi suffer more.

She looked up at the window in front of her, hoping to break in directly for rescue.

After she finally confirmed that no one was around, she opened the window of the penthouse.

Oh my god!

The window was actually sealed with red bricks.

At this point, she finally understood why Xiaodouzi always said it was so dark inside?

How can a room without windows not be dark?

Maybe it's due to the maternal nature of being a mother.

Her heart became even more flustered and worried.

Because she remembered something mentioned in a magazine that she flipped through not long ago.

A psychologist in the article pointed out that fear of the dark is a common problem among children, and mild fear of the dark is normal.

However, if a child is too afraid of the dark, or even the dark night, it will affect the normal development of the child's personality.

Children's fear of the dark largely comes from conditioned reflexes.

If your child has ever been frightened in the dark.

Or have seen or imagined something that exists in the dark.

It is very likely that darkness will be associated with these negative images, thus forming negative conditioned stimuli.

When the child enters a dark environment again, the child will be emotionally moved and develop fear.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! So if the matter of rescuing Xiaodouzi cannot be handled well.

Then this child will definitely have big problems with his character in the future.

Zhang Ling doesn't want to see something like this happen.

But under the current situation, there was no way she could enter the east wing through the main room and rescue Xiaodouzi without being noticed.

Just when she was distressed, she heard someone shouting in the courtyard:

"It's on fire! Someone come and put out the fire!"

For the first time, Zhang Ling felt that Li Xi's voice was so pleasant.

She smiled and immediately moved over to observe. Li Xi was standing in the courtyard, pointing to his room, directing everyone to put out the fire quickly.

People who had been cleaning the main room all rushed out to help put out the fire.

Obviously, Zhang Ling's best time has finally arrived.

She took the opportunity to sneak into the main room and walked straight towards the east wing.

What appears in front of you is a book table and bookshelves that almost fill the entire wall behind it.

What surprised her was that she didn't see where the door was?

She briefly suspected that she had made a mistake.

However, standing beside the book desk, I could still vaguely hear Xiaodouzi's faint cry for help.

When I think of the secret room plots that are often performed in movies and TV dramas.

She suddenly felt enlightened!

Just as she was trying to find where the agency was, she heard security personnel coming in to check on the situation.

This also made Zhang Ling, who was hiding aside, even more sure that Xiaodouzi must be behind the bookshelf.

It was just two security guards who came in this time.

As soon as the two people came in, they both walked towards the vase on the side of the bookshelf.

He even looked at the vase up and down for a few seconds.

It was as if he made a special trip to check whether the power button had been touched or not.

No, it was more like he came in specially to remind her of the location of the button to open the secret room.

Wait and watch the two security guards leave.

She also walked out from behind the curtain on one side.

Without hesitation, I passed the security reminder and turned the vase as shown in the movie and TV series. The bookshelf slowly opened like an automatic door.

At this moment, she cursed in her heart:

It seems like what the movies and TV shows say, everyone with money likes to do this.

The door was fully opened, and Xiaodouzi's calling voice became clearer.

Perhaps because Xiaodouzi saw the light, excitement and hope were evident in his calling voice.

Zhang Ling walked quickly into the door and called out impatiently:

"Xiaodouzi, where are you? Mom is here!"

Xiaodouzi, who was huddled in a corner, was sure that the person who came in was indeed her long-awaited mother through the light coming from the door.

A bright smile appeared on her frightened little face.

The body that was originally trembling due to the coldness no longer trembled.

He suddenly got up from the ground, ran towards the light quickly, threw himself directly into Zhang Ling's arms and cried:

"Mom, Xiaodouzi is so scared! I thought I would never see you again in this life."

At this moment, Xiaodouzi truly knew that only Zhang Ling's mother's embrace was the warmest in the world.

The original chill on her body also dissipated instantly.

She is wrong!

Only then did she realize that she had wrongly blamed Zhang Ling’s mother!

Because when her heart is as close as possible, she can clearly feel that Zhang Ling's mother loves her very much.

"No! Look, mom is coming to see you now. Don't be afraid, don't cry. Come on, tell mom, why are you here?"

Xiaodouzi choked a little and said:

"This... this little Douzi is not very clear either."

Zhang Ling reminded with a smile:

"It doesn't matter! If you can't remember it, don't think about it."

Xiaodouzi then recalled:

"I only remember that I was a few steps past the corner of the corridor. Suddenly I felt that my mouth was covered by a handkerchief that smelled strange. Within a few seconds, I fell asleep. When I woke up,

Appeared here."

"Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore. Mom is here." Zhang Ling held Xiaodouzi in her arms for a while as she spoke.

Xiaodouzi's body was once again wrapped in Zhang Ling's body temperature.

Her young and frightened mind was briefly comforted.

The clever little Douzi suddenly said in Zhang Ling's ear:

"Mom, where is this place? It's really scary! Xiaodouzi also heard terrifying shouts at that time. It felt like a messenger from hell came to arrest her."

Zhang Ling finished listening to Xiaodouzi's words.

Only then did they suddenly realize that they were still in a dangerous place.

"Xiaodouzi, listen to me, you can't stay in this place. Let's go out with mom first. Mom can answer your questions after you go out and find dad, okay?"

Xiaodouzi didn't want to stay in this dark place for a second.

Hearing her mother's words, she nodded vigorously with some excitement.

When she walked out of the secret room and closed the door, Zhang Ling held Xiaodouzi's hand but hesitated for a moment.

How can mother and daughter get out of here safely?

If she were alone, she would definitely have never been to this hospital.

But now that there are so many Xiaodouzi around, it is difficult to leave without being noticed by others.

Just when she was a little dazed, Xiaodouzi suddenly shouted "Dad".

Her body trembled when she saw that Li Xiang had indeed followed the old patriarch in. Xiao Douzi excitedly rushed towards Li Xiang.

Li Xiang leaned over and held Xiaodouzi in his arms. He looked at Zhang Ling who was coming towards him strangely and asked:

"Why are you here?"

Zhang Ling explained with a smile:

"There was a fire in the room where Li Xi lived next door. We came in to take a look. Because Xiaodouzi was a little playful and naughty. I was afraid that this child would cause a fire here, so I followed him in."

She was a little worried after explaining.

She was not worried that the old patriarch would dare to expose the lie in front of Li Xiang.

Instead, she was a little worried about Xiaodouzi, who had always been taught by her not to lie.

It's best not to say a word at this time.

It would be bad if you tell the truth.

The old patriarch looked at Xiaodouzi with a smile and continued:

"It's okay, it's okay. It doesn't matter if my place is set on fire by Xiaodouzi. As long as my great-great-granddaughter is safe and sound."

While talking, the old patriarch tried to step forward and stroke Xiaodouzi's head with his hand.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Xiaodouzi was a little scared at this time and quickly tilted his head to the other side.

Then he tried to hide his head, and at the same time hummed in Li Xiang's ear and said:

"No, no! Dad, you have to believe that Xiaodouzi is not a child and would never do anything like arson."

Zhang Ling listened to Xiaodouzi's words.

I finally felt a little more relieved.

But when she looked at Xiaodouzi's reaction, it was obvious that the little girl had already had a premonition of something.

Then she became worried again.

"Okay, okay! Dad believes in you."

While speaking, Li Xiang freed up a hand and stroked Little Douding's head.

Zhang Ling stood next to Li Xiang at this time and said as naturally as possible:

"Have you finished talking about important matters? Chen Jian called at that time and said that he couldn't contact you. He called me. He said that there was something urgent about business and he wanted to talk to you in person. After I saw you, he asked you to hurry up.

Go to the ancestral hall gate to see him."

"Ling'er, you don't have to worry about him! If this guy Chen Jian is really in an emergency, he will definitely come in directly to find me. He went to a lot of trouble to ask me to go out to find him. This means that this matter must be..."

Before Zhang Ling could finish Li Xiang's words, she put her hands on his lower back and gave him a hard squeeze.

Li Xiang, who was in pain, finally reacted.

Zhang Ling must have taken advantage of Chen Jian's excuse and wanted to talk to him privately about something urgent.

He then looked at the old patriarch and explained:

"I'm very anxious. As for the clan leader, we will talk about the family sacrifices next time we have the opportunity. I think Li has some urgent matters to deal with, so I will take my leave now."

The old patriarch saw that he could not keep the people, so he could not force them to stay. He just treated them with a few words and allowed the three of them to leave together.

I just walked out of the old patriarch’s courtyard, not far away.

Li Xiang is a bit like a primary school student who made mistakes, always following the teacher and not daring to say anything.

Xiaodouzi in Li Xiang's arms spoke first to break the somewhat weird atmosphere.

"Dad, that great-grandfather must be a big bad guy!"

Li Xiang stopped immediately when he heard that Xiaodouzi was nervous.

He looked around and saw no one, so he looked at Xiaodouzi in his arms with relief and said:

"Xiaodouzi, why are you talking like this suddenly?"

Xiaodouzi's aggrieved face was dotted with two traces of tears of fear and said:

"There is a scary dark room in that great-grandpa's room. Xiaodouzi was inexplicably locked in the dark room for a long time just now!"
