I still wanted to explain for Ruan Qing, but when I saw his angry gaze, I fell silent. And at this moment, there was a sound of "snort" from under the door, and at the same time, the book that Zhao Xuyun used to block under the crack of the door was moving, as if it was gnawed by something.

"Oh no, these beetle worms are not flesh and blood, and they are gnawing on them! I remember that this is not what he recorded in his notebook......" Zhao Xuyun was a little flustered when he saw this.

"What should I do?" I panicked too.

Regardless of whether these beetles were released by Ruan Qing to deal with us, they are really dangerous now!

"They're afraid of fire."

Zhao Xuyun thought for a while, then quickly took a few thick books from the bookcase, went to the drawer of his desk to find a lighter, lit the book, and then when a few beetles finished biting a book and were about to get in, he slammed the burning book over.

When the burning end touched the beetles, their harvester-like mouths immediately closed, and then quickly retreated. But one of them didn't have time to exit, but it was turned over by the fire, emitting a burnt smell, and died on the spot.

Seeing this, I hurriedly followed Zhao Xuyun's example, and also brought a few books, lit and squeezed out the books that were originally blocked under the crack of the door, and replaced them with books that were on fire. Sure enough, the beetles were scared away and didn't dare to continue to bite them.

"Xuyun, if it burns like this, will the door burn? "I saw that the fire was getting bigger and bigger under ......the crack in the door, and I became worried.

Zhao Xuyun was bent on one knee, half-kneeling on the ground staring at the firelight, and only then turned his head to look at me when he heard what I said, "No, this door is fireproof, waterproof or even explosion-proof." There's a lot of smoke here, you go to the window...... Ahem...... Go over there and take shelter, and after a while the beetles are scared away, I'll open the door, and you can come and go out with me again. ”

It turned out that this door was fireproof, waterproof and explosion-proof, no wonder he was so calm. I was really choked by the smoke, so I hurriedly left and ran to the window, and then opened the curtains to get some air.

As a result, as soon as I opened the curtains, I saw a figure of a man in a black cloak outside the window, and I immediately screamed "ah" in fright, and I fell to the ground, my waist and hips ached, and my eyes were closed.

"What's wrong?" Zhao Xuyun heard my screams and hurriedly ran over to take me into his arms.

After I felt that I was being hugged by him, I was not so scared, I slowly opened my eyes, pointed to the window and said, "Outside the window...... Someone outside the window! ”

"No?" After Zhao Xuyun looked at my hand, he wondered, "Xiaohe, are you dazzled?" ”

I also looked to the window at this time, and found that there was indeed nothing there, but just now I saw a dark shadow!

"Impossible, the man was obviously standing in front of the window just now, still with his back bent, wearing the same style of cloak as Ruan Qing and them before...... What, it's gone in the blink of an eye? Jumped? "I was really confused.

When Zhao Xuyun heard me say this, he felt that something was wrong, so he let go of me, walked to the window, and looked outside. Probably didn't see anything, so he looked at me with a twisted eyebrow, "This is the balcony on the third floor, even if someone really stood here, it wouldn't have disappeared so quickly." ”

"Could it be that he suddenly jumped off?"

"If that were the case, we wouldn't be unheard. After all, this is the third floor, and there is a swimming pool at the bottom, so no matter how you jump down, there will be movement. Zhao Xuyun analyzed.

As soon as he said this, I was a little suspicious that I was dazzled.

"Okay, I see that the beetles outside are also burned away, let's ......"

"A-Niang~! Hmm...... "Before Zhao Xuyun could finish what he wanted to say to me, a muffled scream suddenly came from Xiaoyu outside the door, and before he finished shouting, the voice was intercepted, as if he was suddenly stopped by someone!"

"Light rain!"

As soon as I heard the sound of light rain, I was shocked, by the way, he was still resting in the room on the second floor! Could it be that he was attacked by a beetle?

Without thinking too much about it, I hurried to the door, ignoring the burning books under the door, reached out and twisted the hot handle, and rushed out.

"Little lotus! Be careful! Zhao Xuyun probably didn't expect me to rush out in such a hurry, a beat slower than me, and hurriedly reminded me to be careful.

But I didn't care so much about it, whether there were any of those terrible beetles outside, and ran to the stairs.

I didn't meet the beetle, but when I reached the stairs, I saw the man in black wearing a cloak just now, covering Xiaoyu's mouth with a withered hand, holding his waist with one hand, and running quickly downstairs.

It wasn't for me just now, there was really a man in a black cloak standing by the window! Then the beetle must have been put by him as well!

"Light rain! …… You let go of her him! Seeing this, I hurriedly chased down, three or four steps at a time, and when I saw that I was about to grasp the back of his floating cloak, my feet slammed into the air, and I fell on my back on the stairs.

Belch...... It hurts!

After falling on the stairs, my back and the back of my head fell on the stairs, and I couldn't move for a long time, and there was a buzzing sound in my ears. When the tinnitus ended, the "hmm" sound made by Xiaoyu covering her mouth disappeared.

"Little lotus!"

At this time, Zhao Xuyun arrived from upstairs, saw me fall to the ground, squatted down worriedly to help me up, I hurriedly said to him with difficulty, "Xiao...... Light rain! Save...... Save him! ”

As I spoke, I struggled to look downstairs. Because I can't do it manually.

Zhao Xuyun immediately understood my intentions, and hurriedly got up and chased downstairs.

After seeing him chase after me, I went limp, and lay on the stairs moaning in pain. When I had recovered a little, I reached out and stood up with my hand on the handrail at the staircase, and walked to the next step of the stairs in pain. I was even more worried about Xiaoyu in my heart, and I was worried to the extreme.

When I finally walked down the stairs, I saw Zhao Xuyun panting and turning back from the door, and glanced in the direction of the kitchen, and looked at me again, but the look on his face was very heavy.

As soon as I saw him like this, my heart fluttered, "Little ...... What about the light rain? ”

When he heard this, he lowered his head and stopped looking at me.

"Zhao Xuyun, let me ask you...... Belch...... I ask you, what about Xiaoyu? I yelled at him excitedly. After yelling, my eyes turned black, and then countless Venus stars appeared, and I couldn't stand still, so I could only sit on the ground and look at him.

Although Zhao Xuyun didn't answer me, I already knew the answer. Xiaoyu must have been robbed by the man in black just now!

"I ...... I didn't catch up, but Mao Zhu and Zhou Ming are still chasing. But the man was astonishingly fast, and it wasn't like he was walking his own way. And it was like being carried by countless beetles. Presumably, they are choking enough to catch up. Zhao Xuyun finally raised his head and said helplessly.
