Chapter 7Upstairs

Chef Tao threw the ribs into the pot and stir-fried them over the fire. The aroma from the kitchen wafted outside, and a customer shouted: "Waiter!"

Wei Jiexiu: "Come on!"

"Why is this fried so fragrant?"

“Sweet and sour pork ribs!”

"Come here!"

"I want one too!"

"I also……"

Chef Tao put the radish carved into bunnies on the plate, and under everyone's salivating eyes, he put the warm sweet and sour pork ribs in front of Su Yi'an: "Eat it, what else do you want to eat, just tell me."

Su Yi'an picked up a piece tremblingly with his left hand, ate it into his mouth, and tears came down: "If I'm not here, remember to cook pork ribs for me every day... Woo!"

Wei Jiexiu broke out in sweat: "An Zi, what are you talking about!"

Chef Tao patted him: "Eat quickly, you can go on the road when you are full."

Ling Zhaoxia drank with his head sullen, with a very deep expression on his face.

People: "..." Is this going to be taken to be shot or to go to the battlefield?

Su Yi'an was tearfully pawing the rice, and suddenly heard a voice: "Hey, there are sweet and sour ribs here?"

Wei Jiexiu greeted: "Yes, I have everything, come, sit here!"

Ling Zhaoxia filled a glass of wine for Su Yi'an, and clinked the glass with the bottle: "Hey, I'm back to my senses, let's drink."

Su Yi'an obediently picked up the cup, still looking in that direction. A man and a woman were sitting at the next table. The man was tall and had a scar at the corner of his mouth. As he spoke, the scar moved like a bug.

About half an hour later, the couple finished paying and left hugging each other. They were speaking in a dialect that Su Yi'an couldn't understand. The man seemed to be talking about something interesting, and the chatter made the woman laugh out loud.

It was only after they walked away that Ling Zhaoxia let go of Su Yi'an's fist.

"Don't worry about it." Ling Zhaoxia handed him a napkin, "Take care of yourself."

"En." Su Yi'an took the paper and blew his nose.

Ling Zhaoxia: "...I wiped your mouth!"

"Ah..." Su Yi'an pinched the snot paper and hesitated if he could still wipe his mouth.

Ling Zhaoxia took out another card, wiped his mouth, and waved his hand: "Okay, you can get out!"

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the streets were empty except for the lights on the newsstands.

The keeper of the booth was an uncle who was lying in a chair with his legs crossed and reading the newspaper. When Su Yian put the car in, he took out a mooncake box and knocked on it: "It's three yuan for the car on a rainy day!"

Su Yi'an counted three coins and threw them into the mooncake box. The uncle put away the mooncake box and continued to read the newspaper.

Before entering the small building, Su Yian took out a bottle of Erguotou from his pocket, unscrewed the cap and let out a sigh of relief. Su Yian often socialized and was used to drinking, but this was the first time he drank such a bottle of Erguotou. He was so angry that tears filled his eyes, and he was out of breath from coughing.

A flash of lightning flashed across the sky. After the lightning passed, the small building was hidden in darkness again. The residents had all moved out, and the windows were lifeless black holes. Su Yi'an whispered to Xiaozhu, "Da Tao? Da Tao?" pottery?"

Little Taotie didn't run out, the bamboo slices were just bamboo slices, the cool touch made Su Yi'an feel chills all over.

No one can help him.

He can only go up by himself!

The downstairs floors are okay, I can vaguely hear passers-by chatting, and when I go up to the fourth floor, I feel like I have entered another space. The street lights can't come in, and the sound can't come in. Except for the monotonous sound of rain, only the world is left. Isolated darkness.

Turning the corner, Su Yi'an stood in front of the iron gate with her mobile phone in hand.

The paper that was burned at noon was still there, and when the wind blew, large pieces of paper ash flew over the bricks, whirling and whirling. The light is aimed at the iron gate.

He moved the brick away, feeling a gaze staring at him from behind.

Su Yi'an picked up his phone and took a picture, and it showed a door that was ajar.

A few days ago, there was still a family living here, and the old woman was waving her cane to tell him not to go up.

This family also moved out, and the half-closed door was blown by the wind, making a dull creaking sound. Su Yi'an shook his dizzy head, put down his mobile phone, and continued to clean up the sacrifices in front of the iron gate. He took out a thin iron wire in his mouth and poked it a few times but it didn't go into the keyhole. He had no choice but to hold the phone in his mouth and point it at the chain. Su Yi'an was so scared that he didn't want to go up at all. He really hoped that the lock would be rusted. It will never be opened, but after the wire went in, before I fiddled with it a few times, the lock made a click.

Su Yi'an took off the lock with his only movable left hand, and walked around the iron chain one by one. The iron chain was untied, and there was still the lock of the gate. Su Yi'an took a deep breath, and pushed the wire towards the keyhole.

The door suddenly opened!

Maybe the lock was broken, or something pushed the door open behind, Su Yian had no time to think about it, he sat down on the ground in fright, the phone fell to the ground, it was dark, the light disappeared, and the surroundings were submerged In the darkness with five fingers, Su Yi'an tremblingly touched the phone, swiped it on, the phone seemed to be in bad contact, the light flickered, the iron gate opened a crack and then stopped, Su Yi'an waited for a while, Gathering up the courage to step forward, he picked up the phone, held the doorknob and pulled it open forcefully. The door was so rusted that it got stuck after opening a little. Gasping to hold his stomach, he barely squeezed in.

There is also a staircase behind the iron gate, and a few steps up is a corner. The wall is full of messy paintings, and there are also children's graffiti. As for how the handprints on the top of the head are printed, Su Yi'an dare not think about it Yes, he glanced at his phone. At 12:30, he suddenly caught a glimpse of something moving in the corner on the left hand side. The light shone through, and it turned out to be a long-withered plant. Half of it was broken, and the remaining half was dangling on the branch.

At this moment, the phone went off, but after it went off, it flickered and then turned on again. The light became much dimmer. Su Yi'an took a closer look and found that the battery was low, almost dead!

Su Yi'an had no choice but to walk up quickly. The wall peeled off more and more as he went up. When he reached the fifth floor, he found that the entire wall was completely black, not only the wall, but also the ground. There were garbage, old sofas and broken cabinets, as if someone blocked the road on purpose, Su Yian only had one hand to move, and finally gave up after moving a few cabinets, he stepped on the sofa to the balcony fence, bypassing the mountain of garbage, Fall back down the hallway.

After passing through several dark door openings, he finally came to the end of the corridor.

The iron door was burnt, it was pitch black, Su Yi'an tried to push it, and the door creaked open.

Wait, the hero said that it is ok to worship in front of the door, but he didn't say that he should go in!

It was too late for Su Yi'an to regret, before the door was fully opened, he grabbed the doorknob and closed the door gently.

Let go, and the door opens.

Close the door.

Let go, and the door opens.

With tears streaming down her face, Su Yi'an found out that the door couldn't be closed...

"Hey, brother, wait for someone?" The uncle at the newsstand moved out a cage for dry steaming, "Would you like to try one?"

Ling Zhaoxia sat on a small bench next to the newsstand, exhaled a puff of smoke, and said coldly, "No."

The girls passing by saw the handsome guy at the newsstand, so they mustered up the courage to strike up a conversation and said, "Here's an evening paper!"

"help yourself."

The girl took one and handed him two coins.

Ling Zhaoxia tossed the coin, and the coin clanged into the mooncake box containing the money.

"How much is this magazine?"

"See for yourself."

The girl handed him a sheet of ten yuan. Ling Zhaoxia glanced at the magazine and took out a...peppermint candy from the mooncake box. (Oops!)

Ling Zhaoxia picked out another coin and gave it to her along with mints.

The girl was so happy, she bought a few more books, and left bouncing away.

The uncle at the newsstand saw that my brother didn’t like the appearance of dry steaming, so he packed a red bean paste bag for him.

Ling Zhaoxia wants it.

He gnawed on the bean paste bun, looked up at the rainy night sky, the small dark building was hidden in the darkness, Ling Zhaoxia's gaze swept to the fifth floor, and a white shadow flashed past in a certain window.

Su Yi'an looked at the door in disbelief.

The door was still the same door, but when it opened slowly, a light lit up inside.

When the door is fully opened, Su Yi'an seems to have returned to the dream, the familiar environment, the familiar layout, a man holding a beer bottle is kicking off his leather shoes and walking inside, he is drunk, facing the woman who is coming up They spoke, but they didn't make a sound. Su Yi'an stared at the scar on the corner of the man's mouth. As he spoke, the scar moved like a bug.

The couple talked for a while, and the quarrel became more and more intense. The man seemed very angry, his face flushed abnormally, he spit, waved his hands excitedly, and then slapped the woman on the face.

The nightmare begins here.

After the woman knocked over the coffee table, she completely lost the ability to resist. The man picked up her hair and slapped her. The man was still scolding, and while beating and scolding, Su Yi'an screamed out nervously when he lifted his foot. He almost forgot his situation, and wanted to rush in to pull the man away, but he didn't expect to bump his head against the transparent wall, Su Yi'an clutched his forehead and fell to the ground, the little girl ran out of the room and hugged her father wow Crying, she was begging her father not to beat her mother.

The man picked up the beer bottle...

"No --!!!" Su Yi'an's eyes were shattered, he got up and rushed forward.

The beer bottle hit the little girl on the head, and at the same time, the iron door closed suddenly, blocking Su Yi'an's sight.

The transparent wall disappeared at some point, Su Yian's charge directly hit the iron door, the iron door was slammed open by him, and Su Yian fell headlong into it.

The room was so bright that it caught fire!

The curtains were on fire, the sofa was on fire, and the mother and daughter on the sofa were also on fire. The fire spread quickly under the alcohol. The man ran out the door and looked back. His wife and children were motionless. was killed.

I don't know what was lit, there was an explosion in the living room, the flames surged, and it swept in front of Su Yi'an in an instant, Su Yi'an raised his hand to cover his eyes, when he opened it again, he found that the room was pitch black, the fire was gone, and the family of three also disappeared. gone.

A musty smell that has been sealed all year round pierces the tip of the nose, and there is a rustling sound in the depths of the room, like the sound of a plastic bag being blown by the wind. Already out of the room and crawling into the hall, Su Yi'an was anxious and frightened, his legs were so weak that he couldn't stand up, the feeling was similar to being pointed at the head with a gun, but the problem is, what was in front of him was not a gun, but... …

After several touches, he took out the phone, and the light turned on, revealing a woman's face.

Hearing an exclamation, the newsstand owner's smoke was frightened. He thought there was a robbery, and ran out of the newsstand. Several passers-by were also looking around. They all heard the exclamation, but they didn't know where it came from.

Su Yi'an really wished that he could faint, but he didn't faint, he was still very energetic, the phone fell to the ground and went off, he backed away screaming in the dark, the iron door closed at some time, he stepped back, His back was against the door panel.

Su Yi'an touched the lock, turned it a few times and locked the door...

A man in white lingered outside the door, as if hesitating whether to go in, but the iron door suddenly opened, and Su Yi'an walked out with blank eyes.

The man in white stretched out his hand to pull him, but Ling Zhaoxia jumped off the garbage mountain and shouted, "Don't touch him!"

Ah - heroes! ! !

When Su Yi'an saw the great savior, he was so happy that he almost cried, but he couldn't speak, and he couldn't control his body. He watched himself jump on the window sill, and walked around the hill of sofas and cabinets to the stairs.

God... where is this going? !

Su Yi'an saw himself tearing off a talisman on the iron gate, and when he got out of the iron gate, he heard himself sigh, reach into his backpack and take out a small gift box containing chocolate mousse.

The small gift box was originally used for worship, but it turned out to be useless. Su Yian didn't know what to do with this thing. He took the gift box and went down to the first floor, just in time to see a white figure jumping down from upstairs. Immediately started to run, Ling Zhaoxia also jumped down, jumped onto the billboard immediately after landing, and chased after the man in white after a few ups and downs.

Su Yi'an: "..."

Hey, seems to have seen something extraordinary?

The man in white kicked off the wall and rushed up to the rooftop. Unexpectedly, Ling Zhaoxia followed closely. The man in white had no choice but to jump down. When he landed, he turned into a wisp of white smoke. The smoke rushed to the street at an extremely fast speed and ran out of the intersection Time has already condensed into the appearance of a nine-tailed fox. The nine-tailed fox is the fastest among the beasts in the mountains and seas. He is confident that he can get rid of Ling Zhaoxia.

Pedestrians on the road couldn't see him at all, the nine-tailed fox pierced through one person after another, rushed to n intersections in a row, looked back smugly, and almost spit out blood.

Ling Zhaoxia is riding on a giant beast. How big is the giant beast? Taking a casual step is equivalent to n steps taken by the Nine-Tailed Fox...

The taxi stopped at the door of an apartment, and Su Yi'an saw that she took out a one-hundred-dollar card from her wallet, and said, "You don't need to look for it."

Ouch my big sister!

Su Yi'an is helpless, his current body is beyond his control, if that woman is willing, she can even control him to dance ballet on the road!

Fortunately, the woman was quite sensible, and entered the building in the rain, got on the elevator, got out of the elevator, stopped in front of a door, and rang the doorbell.

"Who is it?" A familiar voice sounded, the door opened, and the man with the scar at the corner of his mouth was taken aback for a moment.

Su Yi'an saw two figures emerging from him, passing through the man and entering the hall.

The small figure held his mother's hand, turned his head, and looked at the small gift box wistfully.

Su Yi'an suddenly understood that there were two souls attached to him, and the small gift box was not an important prop at all, but because... the little girl wanted to eat it!

Su Yi'an quickly adjusted his expression, smiled and said: "Congratulations on becoming a lucky customer of our shop, please accept this gift!"

The man adjusted the bath towel around his waist, looked at Su Yi'an fiercely, and shouted angrily: "Who are you? What time is it, are you crazy?"

"This is the little brother from the dessert shop!" The woman, also wearing a bath towel, pushed the man away lazily, took the gift box, "Thank you!"

She casually threw the gift box into the trash can.

The man snorted and slammed the door shut.

"Gao Tie, I didn't expect you to become a lackey of human beings!" Nine-tailed Fox stopped at the end of the alley, looked at Ling Zhaoxia who had jumped off the back of Tao Tie, and then shifted his gaze to Tao Tie, bared his teeth, and said, "You Where is your dignity?!"

"Damn! I don't want to either!" Taotie pointing at Ling Zhaoxia with his paw depressedly, "Look carefully, what is he!"

Yes!Nine-Tailed Fox finally came to his senses at this time, he looked Ling Zhaoxia up and down, whether human beings could catch up with him, they might not even be able to see it!

But Nine-Tailed Fox was not in the mood to appreciate Ling Zhaoxia, he turned back and jumped onto the wall to continue running wildly. He ran to the apartment area and walked around in the garden.

Su Yi'an's eyes widened as he passed by, the little glutton on the bamboo piece ran out quietly, split into smaller little gluttons, got into the grass and outflanked the nine-tailed fox.

Nine-tailed Fox didn't care when he saw Su Yi'an, anyway, humans couldn't see him, right?

But Su Yi'an was an exception.

It's very strange to see such a big dog in the city, but I didn't expect this dog to have nine tails!

Seeing it rushing towards Su Yian, Su Yian was startled, and when he was hiding back, he happened to bump into someone. The man in the suit was so wronged. How could he have expected Su Yian's reaction to be stepped on by him? , and was hit by him, and the whole person fell into the fountain!

Su Yi'an also fell into the fountain, and saw a burst of blue glow in the pool, as if something had leaked electricity, and the electricity made Su Yi'an's hands and feet numb.

The man in the suit fluttered out of the water in embarrassment, he raised his head, just in time to meet the gaze of the nine-tailed fox.

Nine-tailed fox was startled, this person can see him? !

The Nine-Tailed Fox turned around and ran away immediately. His leg hurt and he fell to the ground with a groan.

An electric arc was wrapped around its tail like a snake, and the nine-tailed fox struggled a few times and couldn't do so. The man in the suit held the electric arc with one hand, and raised the other hand, a power grid glowing blue appeared out of thin air!

A few drunken boys walked by, shoulder to shoulder, and one of them pointed at the man in the suit with a smile: "Look, there's an idiot doing Tai Chi in the rain!"

Companion: "Hahahaha!"

Su Yi'an: "..."

Su Yi'an sat in the pool water and stared blankly at the moment when the power grid fell, the nine-tailed fox bit off its own tail, and quickly ran into the darkness. The man in the suit straightened his suit and turned on his phone. The screen of the phone was black. , but there is a spot of light moving rapidly.

Ling Zhaoxia saw the electric arc and the power grid from a distance, but it was too late when he came over. The man in the suit chased the nine-tailed fox and disappeared into the darkness, leaving only the unlucky guy sitting in the pool with a dumbfounded expression.

The tail of the nine-tailed fox is like ice cream in the sun, gradually melting in the rain, and finally disappears without a trace.

A few little gluttons ran out from the bushes, grabbed Ling Zhaoxia's shoes, and said anxiously, "Jiuwei is going to be caught!"

"Heh, what kind of animal is this?" An old man in a suit stepped out of the shadows, bent down and looked at the little Taotie.

Little Taotie is smaller than a snail, the old man really can't tell what it is.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the little Taotie immediately turned into a wisp of light smoke and scattered away.

Ling Zhaoxia stared at the old man in the suit coldly.

The old man in the suit straightened his waist, with a smile on his face. He was strong and tall, even standing up straight, he was half a head taller than Ling Zhaoxia.

The old man in the suit fixed his eyes on Ling Zhaoxia's forehead, and slowly moved down to his shoes.

For a moment, Ling Zhaoxia saw a little red light flashing in the old man's eyes, as if a scanner had been activated, and he scanned Ling Zhaoxia from beginning to end.

Ling Zhaoxia shuddered, took a step back, and asked cautiously, "Who are you?"

The old man in the suit ignored him, passed Ling Zhaoxia and walked forward, ignoring Su Yi'an who was running over, and followed the route of the man in the suit into the darkness.

A little glutton popped its head out of Ling Zhaoxia's collar, and said softly, "Be careful, this guy... I'm afraid he's not human either!"
