Chapter 13: Xiuxiu is coming

There seems to be a gap of about thirty or forty centimeters between the outside wall and the window glass. Based on the thickness of the exterior wall of the abandoned building, it is speculated that there should be a gap between the two wall supports. It's very cloudy, the outside wall is not the same building as this building. I haven't been to the back of this building, so I don't know if there are any other buildings that are blocked. If not, then the wall is the exterior of a purely underground building.

I went out of the room again, and broke down the doors of several rooms in succession, and saw that the situation inside was almost the same, except for the dust on the floor, there were no useful clues. It's the same outside the window, it's the same wall. I approached the window and shone it diagonally downward with the flashlight, and the wall outside should be down and extended, how deep it is, because the space and angle are not clear. If you want to see clearly, you can only break the glass and peek out. Although no one could be in this deserted building at night, I was still a little afraid that the sound of breaking glass would disturb something. If something could cover the glass, and when it shattered, the sound would be much lower. But the only fabric in this room is the curtains, but the degree of decay that crumbles into slag at the touch is probably not enough to handle this task.

I thought about it, since the stairs can still go down, let's go down to see the situation before making a decision.

Walking back the way I came, the dust that had been disturbed by me had settled on the stairs, and as I returned, they flew into the air again, pulling the flashlight out of a straight pillar of light. Every step I take, it is like stepping on the Qionglou Immortal Palace, and the soles of my feet are smoking, and I turn around and take the flashlight back, and the place I just walked over seems to be like a cloud.

The layout of the second basement floor is basically the same as the upper floor. The only difference is that there is a lot less dust here than above. At this time, the stairs have not yet reached the end, and there should be three underground floors. I walked forward from one side of the hallway, one by one, in front of the doors of those rooms, which were wooden doors with an iron bar. The gap between the railings of the iron door is only 10 centimeters, and if I don't open the door, I will definitely not be able to enter the room. Although the door frame has long been rusted, I tried it a few times, and the lock is still solid, and it is basically impossible to open it with my bare hands.

I checked the rooms on this side one by one, and they were all the same structure, and the door locks were all locked.

Since this is a dilapidated building that has been abandoned for many years, and these doors are still locked, isn't it redundant? I wondered, so I went back to the staircase, intending to go down and see if I could find anything on the third basement floor.

When we reached the third basement floor, the staircase finally came to an end. There is almost no dust on the ground here, and the air is a little damp and not as dry as it is above. The flashlight swept by, and in some corners you could still see the marks left by the mold on the walls.

Unexpectedly, most of the rooms on this floor are unlocked. I walked into the first room, it was like a tool room, and there were broken knives, unused axes, and I don't know if they were wood knives or kitchen knives, all of which were worn out and unusable, and seemed to have been discarded here when they were deserted.

Later, I went into a few more rooms, all of them were empty, there were no curtains on the windows here, and I used a flashlight to shine out, and I could still see the wall outside the window. I continued to explore the room in the back, and as I entered one room, the flashlight swept over the window, and suddenly I saw that the window had been completely torn down and leaned against the wall next to it. I hurriedly turned off my flashlight, quickly exited the room, pressed my back against the wall, and pricked up my ears to listen carefully to what was going on inside.

I waited with bated breath for five or six minutes, and when I saw that there was no movement inside, I turned on my flashlight again and reached for the window, and one hand took the small dagger in my hand.

There was no one at the window, and there were two large screws on the wall of the window, indicating that they were installed later, and the screws were fixed with climbing ropes, and the two ropes extended down from the window. I mustered up my courage and poked my head out to look down with my flashlight, and the faint light of my flashlight shone into the narrow crack in the dark wall, although the darkness tore a hole, but I couldn't see the bottom at all, and I didn't know how deep it was underneath.

I looked around, and the narrow gap between the two walls was only about forty centimeters. I'm not fat, so I'm sure there's no problem going down. However, in this narrow gap, I don't know how deep it is, and if something happens, it may be a life of death. But if I don't go down to find out, maybe one day Sister Jing will have to take the risk, if it was before, maybe I wouldn't care too much, but now that I know that she is pregnant in her womb, there are some things that should be responsible, and I still have to bear it.

I jumped over the windowsill, a rope in each hand, and the dagger in my mouth began to slide slowly. If it's in an open space, climbing a rope is a piece of cake, but in a narrow space of forty centimeters, the legs hardly need any force, and they rely entirely on the strength of their arms to support their body and descend.

I don't know how long it has been, in this time of extreme physical exertion, people's feelings about the speed of time passing are inaccurate, and the feeling of time passing will slow down, just like there is an idiom called "living like a year", and when people experience happiness, they will feel that time passes faster, just like the ancients said "Spring night is short".

The moment I put my feet on the ground, it was like years later. His arms were numb and shaking. But fortunately, my legs haven't been working much just now, and walking has no effect. The width of this gap is very difficult to turn around, and the flashlight probed both sides separately, but there was no end in sight. I picked a random direction and walked slowly forward.

The narrow fellow can only move slowly on half sides, and if his bare arm accidentally touches the wall, a piece of skin will be wiped off by the corner of the wall brick. But I hadn't gone far when I suddenly noticed a faint point of light looming on the opposite side moving rapidly towards me. After waiting for a while, the point of light had turned into a pillar of light and shone directly on me. Apparently I saw my flashlight on the other side as well. He shook his flashlight up and down, I don't know if it was caused by the bumpy walk, or if he did it on purpose, but I didn't understand it.

"Run," a woman's cry came from the flashlight, and then reverberated through the cracks.

Even though my flashlight can already shine on the person on the other side, I can't see anything clearly because the person on the other side is also shining on me. The woman approached me quickly, and I thought she was running.

Finally, she came to me, and I could see her face clearly, it was Xiuxiu.

"Run," she shouted to me urgently. I didn't know anything, and I didn't have time to ask, because I didn't see his expression like he was joking.

I turned around with difficulty, still walking forward half-sideways, while Xiuxiu kept urging behind, and in a hurry, I accelerated slightly, and my shoulders would hit the walls on both sides, and the hot pain made me involuntarily slow down.

Luckily, I wasn't too far from where the rope was, so I was back there quickly. Xiuxiu and I each grabbed a rope and climbed up quickly. Xiuxiu is thin and small, and she can climb much faster than me. When she rolled up the window, she started pulling my rope upwards again. I didn't expect her small body to burst out with infinite strength, and the speed at which she pulled my rope upwards was beyond my imagination.

When I came up, she pulled out the two screws from the windowsill and threw them down along with the rope. Then he called me to help put the whole removed window back on. It was only stuck by the wall, and there were no reinforcement measures.

Then I asked her what was going on, and she just gasped and said, "Get out of here first, and talk slowly when you get back." ”

Let's go back to the ground along the stairs we came from.

The air has never been so fresh, and we breathe greedily. Deep in the sky, starry, dim light does not illuminate the night sky. Xiuxiu, dressed in black in the dark night, was like a ghost, and I followed her closely, and soon came to the iron plate that surrounded the place. Xiuxiu kept looking at the iron plates there, as if she was thinking about how to get out. So I tugged at her arm and pointed to the hole I had dug not far away.

"Cut, dog hole? If I want to drill you, I won't go. Xiuxiu said to me arrogantly, and then saw her take a few steps back, a run, jumped up with both feet and lightly tapped on the iron plate, and then her body continued to flip upward, and a perfect figure drew a perfect arc, and she jumped out directly.

I've practiced too, but I can't do it like her. So I had to honestly go back to the hole I had dug and lean down.

As soon as my upper body turned out of the hole, I looked up and found a pair of legs standing in front of me.
