Monument of Life and Death

When the bucket started to burn, the blue circle drawn by Xiaolan was just finished. Xiaolan hurriedly raised her voice and called Yi Yao. Yi Yao rushed out from the thick smoke coughing. His face had already been smoked black.

   "Uncle Yi, here!" Xiaolan pointed at the blue aperture, "You jump in first!"

"how about you?"

   "You jump first, then I jump!"

   "Okay!" Yi Yao turned his head to look at the talisman that appeared again, and then looked up at the blue circle the size of the washbasin, "I...how do I dance?"

  This...this is also a problem.

   "Oh...this...you just step on me!" Xiaolan stepped forward and sacrificed his shoulders.

"is this okay?"

   "Nothing bad!"

"But…"

   "Uncle Yi!" Xiaolan wailed, "Hurry up! The spell is about to come after him!"

   Yi Yao really stopped talking. He stepped on Xiaolan's shoulder and jumped into the blue circle nimbly. Then he stretched out a hand from the circle and grabbed Xiaolan who was about to be hit by the spell.

   The two crossed the blue circle and fell to the ground.

Xiaolan bounced up almost instantly and took up a fighting stance. She stared at the surroundings with wide eyes. After a few seconds, Yi Yao stood beside her embarrassedly. Together, only two pairs of eyes are left with light.

   "Looks like... that spell didn't come with me," Xiaolan looked around and finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Uncle Yi, we should have come over."

  Yi Yao looked at the furnishings around the new room, he staggered two steps before he settled down.

   "Then this is the dean's office upstairs?" Yi Yao coughed a few times and saw the desk in the center of the room, "There is no one here, it seems that the so-called dean is not there."

   Xiaolan had already run to the desk and turned over the drawer.

   "There's nothing inside," Xiaolan said, looking at the empty drawer, "Is this normal? Has it all been moved away?"

   Yi Yao also came over, tilted his head and said, "I'll go look at the file cabinet over there."

In the southeast corner of the room was a pitch-black metal filing cabinet, and both doors were tightly closed. Yi Yao walked to one door, snapped the door handle, and then turned around and said, "Xiao Lan, the door It's locked."

The subtext of    is: unlocked, come here.

  The unlocking passed quickly, Xiaolan trotted over and said, "Actually, I can't open any lock, Uncle Yi..."

After    finished speaking, Xiaolan grabbed the door handle and felt a brief sense of obstruction, as well as the familiar sound of the door lock being opened.

  Xiaolan frowned, then opened the door, "Ah, fortunately I can open this, Yi..."

Suddenly, a black object smashed out of the cabinet and hit Xiaolan and Yi Yao on top of their heads. .

   That's... one person!

   "My God..." Xiaolan pressed her back against the wall on the other side, her eyes almost falling on the man, "Who is this... Who is this?"

   Yi Yao cautiously took a few steps forward. He looked left and right, took out a baseball bat from the side of the cabinet, and poked the man with the other end of the bat.

  The man was lying curled up in front of the open filing cabinet, and there were many paper documents stacked in the filing cabinet. At present, all of them were brought out by this man and scattered all over the place.

   "It doesn't seem to be responding," Yi Yao took a few steps forward, crouched beside the man, raised his head and said to Xiaolan, "It's a man."

  The man was wearing a suit. From the fabric, he knew it wasn't cheap, but the suit was wrinkled now. I don't know how long the man had been locked in the filing cabinet.

  Xiaolan also came to the man, reached out to test his breath, Yi Yao pressed his fingers on the man's neck, and the two looked at each other at the same time, exchanging a heavy look.

   "He died." The two said in unison.

   "Could this person be..." Xiaolan said.

   "It's very possible," Yi Yao also had the same thought, "If this is the real dean, then everything makes sense."

"Sure enough, someone pretended to be the dean here, took Grandpa Qiao and the others over, and didn't let us contact other people at the fifth watch," Xiaolan said, "No, Uncle Yi, we have to inform Uncle Jun of this news quickly. ."

   "You're right," Yi Yao immediately took out his mobile phone, "I'll call him right now, and I have to make him watch out for Xiao Kong."

  Xiaolan opened her eyes and nodded, watching Yi Yao press the phone number, and then watching Yi Yao put down the phone with a frown.

   "There is no signal here," Yi Yao said, walking towards the window, "I'll go to the window to have a look."

  Xiaolan nodded, just about to follow Yi Yao's footsteps, but heard a hurried knock on the door.

   The movements of the two stopped abruptly, and looked out the door together.

   At this time... Who would it be?

  Yi Yao looked at the phone, Xiaolan asked "Is there a signal?" by mouth, Yi Yao shook his head, and then walked towards the door.

  Xiaolan and Yi Yao started the race to rush to the door to open the door again. However, before the door was opened, there were voices outside the door.

   "Who's inside?" was a woman's voice, "Is there anyone inside?"

  Iyao withdrew his hand, looking a little confused.

   "This voice...how is it a bit familiar," Xiaolan also said, "I seem to have heard it somewhere..."

   "Who is talking?" The woman's voice sharpened, "Yes...the one next to Luo Jiutian..."

   Luo Jiutian? !

   Yi Yao swallowed a mouthful of saliva and asked softly with a tentative tone, "Is it... the head of the Xia Hua family?"

  Summer flowers!

   Xiaolan suddenly thought of where she had heard this voice.

   This is the voice of Xia Hua, the head of the Four Summers.

   "Listen to your voice...Is it Big Brother Yi Yao?" Xia Hua also said in surprise outside the door, "Is it Big Brother Yi Yao?"

   "It's me, it's me!" Yi Yao just wanted to stretch out his hand to open the door, but hesitated, "Wait, Patriarch Xia Hua, why are you here?"

   "I... ah, it's really hard to say," Xia Hua said, "Who are you with? Are there other people in there?"

   "Yes...it's me," Xiaolan said, "Sister Xia Hua, I'm Xiaolan."

   "Then it seems that I guessed correctly, it is you," Xia Hua said, "but...how did the two of you get together? It's strange."

   It's even weirder that you are here!

   "Our side... it's hard to say anything," Yi Yao asked, "Patriarch Xiahua, is there no danger outside the door?"

   "Dangerous?" Xia Hua said frankly, "Of course there is."

Ha ha?
