Chapter 2 - 26,36

Wen Xue Cha said softly: "That old lady is a resident of this building, we met her on the 6th floor."

Su Qing Yu snapped her fingers: "The rules say that the old lady lives alone. It's true that we met her on the 6th floor, but don't forget, she said that she has a son who works at the slaughterhouse, and when he comes back at night, he will roast a whole lamb for her to eat."

"Oh—"

Wen Xue Cha was startled to realize that she almost fell into a strange trap.

Rule 9 of the [Endless Corridor Rules]

[There is a grocery store on the first floor, you can buy anything you need. It doesn't matter if you don't have money, you can help the shop owner clean up the trash in front of the door. No matter what familiar things you see, remember that they are all trash.]

Su Qing Yu walked to the grocery store of the old lady who was knitting.

At this time, the old lady on the 6th floor called out to her: "Granddaughter, come here, I feel so familiar! It turns out we just met. Do you still remember me? I have something delicious for you. I just imported some big, crispy, sweet apples that are free."

Su Qingyu turned around and smiled and refused: "Grandma, no need, I have already eaten two of your apples, why are you so embarrassed to ask me? There is a grocery store here, I can buy some myself."

The old lady who was rejected sat down on a folding chair in the store, looked at Su Qingyu with a gloomy gaze and said sourly: "The store next door is a scam, the stuff there is exorbitantly expensive. I would rather come to your house than be ripped off by that old lady."

The old lady who had been knitting was dozing all day, and she was not very enthusiastic when she saw the customer coming.

"Grandma, I want to buy five bags of bread and a sleeping bag."

Su Qingyu planned to spend the night in the hallway on the first floor.

"I also need bread, um... ten bags."

Li Lin squeezed in front of Su Qingyu, waving his hands: "I still want five more bottles of water."

The old lady took out an abacus, her fingers as dry as tree branches tapping on it.

"A total of 350."

Li Lin took out his wallet from his pocket, raising his eyebrows in satisfaction: "Luckily I still keep the habit of carrying cash with me, otherwise I can't use my phone in the dungeon, I can't make electronic payments, it's so troublesome."

He handed over the paper money.

The old lady suddenly flew into a rage, her eyes strangely red: "What are you giving me? What do I need these scraps of paper for? I accept hell money here! If you don't buy anything, don't crowd in front of my store, blocking my way to do business!"

Li Lin was stunned, his mind blank.

Hell money? Why is it hell money?

Fortunately, he quickly regained his composure and repeatedly bowed to apologize to the old lady: "Sorry, I took the wrong thing! Do you need any help? I can help you clean up the trash in front of the store in exchange for some food."

The old lady saw that Li Lin was quite polite, her red eyes gradually softened: "There's absolutely no trash in front of my door, I don't need your help."

Li Lin's face turned pale.

The old lady didn't need his help, which meant he couldn't get any food.

Wen Xuecha was glad she was always watching, otherwise she would have made the same mistake.

Su Qingyu repeated her previous request for groceries: "I need five loaves of bread and a sleeping bag."

Li Lin and Wen Xue Cha glanced at each other, not daring to speak.

The old lady raised her eyelids: "Bread 30 for a loaf, sleeping bag 500 for a piece, a total of 650 underworld coins."

Su Qing Yu took out her Heaven and Earth Bank card: "Swipe card."

The old lady saw the balance on the card, her sluggish expression disappeared, her whole body became enthusiastic: "I didn't expect there to be such a capable young lady in this shabby building! There are many other things in my store, do you want to check them out? All newly imported goods, there are self-heating hot pots, self-heating rice, all kinds of fresh fruits... Or if you want to eat anything, just tell me, this old lady will go and buy the goods for you right away."

The 180-degree change in attitude made Li Lin and Wen Xue Cha gape.

Wen Xue Cha secretly rejoiced, fortunately she didn't mistake the person, cooperating with Su Qing Yu early.

Bringing a "shikigami" to the battle, it was clear that Sister Yu was a capable person.

Now that she was buying things, even the strange old lady at the grocery store had to give up three parts, further proving that Sister Yu had hidden her true nature!

Following Su Qingyu, Wen Xuecha felt that her chances of survival had increased significantly.

Li Lin was someone who had been bullied by society, and his personality was quite selfish, but he also knew how to act according to the situation.

After Su Qingyu got the bread and sleeping bag, Li Lin walked over, a flattering smile on his face: "Sister Yu, I was too hungry before and I spoke badly, please forgive me."

"No need to apologize, I don't mind."

Of course, Su Qingyu didn't mind these things.

On the contrary, she generously gave Li Lin and Wen Xuecha each a bag of bread.

This action wasn't because her conscience had risen, but because Su Qingyu had figured out why the doors of the seventh floor residents were tightly closed.

According to the [Resident Rules], there must be a "bad guy" lurking in the dark on the seventh floor.

This "bad guy" didn't appear at the beginning, most likely because all three of them were still alive.

The three of them were alive, it was not easy to make a move.

Li Lin accepted the bread, his mouth saying empty but grateful words: "Sister Yu, you are truly my great benefactor!"

"Next time I come to the dungeon, I will listen to whatever you say, Li Lin, I will absolutely obey!"

Wen Xue Cha also happily showed her loyalty: "Me too~"

Night fell, the two grocery stores closed at the same time at midnight.

The old lady on the 6th floor leaned on her cane and walked with a limp, poking the white wall with her cane, the elevator appeared.

Su Qing Yu closed her eyes and counted to ten.

She didn't hear any footsteps.

There was also no sound of the elevator closing.

When she opened her eyes, she didn't expect that the old lady hadn't left yet, but was now crouching right in front of the three of them.

Her wrinkled face was enlarged.

The old lady grinned horribly: "Hehe, what are you guys doing with your eyes closed? Are you playing hide and seek?"

Van Tuyet Tra screamed: "Ah!"

"Oh my god!"

Li Lin clenched her thighs tightly, almost peeing her pants in fear.

The distance was so close that Su Qingyu frowned.

At this moment, the elevator had disappeared.

Su Qingyu replied, "We're resting here for a bit."

The old lady put the grocery store key on the ground: "There are often strangers passing by on the first floor corridor, it's not safe to rest here, you guys can go to my store to rest."

After leaving the key, the old lady entered the emergency exit and went up the stairs.

The silver key sparkled with a cold light.

Wen Xuecha whispered, "Sister Yu, is this old lady a good person? It's really not safe to sleep in the corridor at night, why don't we go to the grocery store..."

"Rule number four, have you forgotten?"

Su Qingyu crawled into her sleeping bag and continued to rest.

[Your neighbors are quite enthusiastic, they will start a conversation, you can chat with them but absolutely do not accept their invitation, and definitely do not go to their house as a guest.]

"The grocery store is not a home..."

"This key is exactly the same as the key on the rich merchant's belt on the third floor, they are all resident keys."Late at night, the two emergency exit doors were wide open, and five or six workers wearing yellow hard hats walked up carrying ladders.

The originally quiet corridor suddenly became bustling.

Article 5 of the [Endless Corridor Rules]

[Recently, due to the renovation of the old apartment building, people wearing worker hats often appeared in the building. Don't panic, they will leave after finishing their work.]

The workers were wearing yellow hard hats, holding hammers and saws, their faces were pitch black and had no facial features.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way, don't block the way."

They intended to pass by where Su Qingyu was lying.

Su Qingyu moved.

They entered the emergency exit, chiseling loudly all night, and only left when the sun rose.

Leave?

There were so many people, how did they leave?

When they were about to leave, Su Qingyu looked up at the last worker carrying the ladder and asked, "Uncle, there are so many of you, how did you leave?"

The construction worker didn't respond.

He left with the group through the emergency exit.

The entire crowd appeared and disappeared as if they had never existed.

On their yellow safety vests, Su Qingyu saw the logo of the Sao Mai Group.

The fourth point on her mother's note:

[Our building management company only knows how to collect money, never works, and does not manage the floors.]

This proved that the construction workers were not employees of the Sao Mai Building Management Services Company.

It was morning, Su Qingyu stood in the hallway, holding onto the railing and looking into the distance.

The wind blew her long hair, like a wild orchid quietly blooming in a deserted place.

It was clearly the first floor, but her vision could not see the end.

Wu Xin always stuck close to Su Qingyu.

The advantage of a tribute was that even if it was just a lifeless skeleton, there was no fear of betrayal.

Wen Xuecha had already considered Su Qingyu as a support: "Sister Yu, this is clearly the first floor, what should we do?"

Su Qingyu glanced at his watch, his eyes darkened: "Continue going downstairs."

Wen Xuecha hesitated a bit: "But the rules say that the building only has 7 floors, there is no basement."

Su Qingyu analyzed: "Right now we only have three options. First, bet on whether the grocery store has a secret door, in my opinion the grocery store is also a residential building, if we enter it will be a violation of the rules and we will die. Second is the elevator, this is a dangerous place that has been emphasized in the rules. Third, the west exit."

Li Lin thought in his heart, he would rather stay on the first floor than continue going downstairs.

At least there is a grocery store here, he can buy food.

At this moment, living another day is already a luxury.

Seeing that the two of them were still lingering on the first floor and refusing to leave, Su Qingyu coldly said, "Remember the house in the first instance? Over time, the pollution in the house has become more and more serious. You want to stay here, aren't you afraid of repeating the same mistake?"

After saying that, Su Qingyu walked into the emergency exit, and Wen Xuecha stomped her feet and chased after her.

The grocery store's rolling door opened, and the old lady lit a dim lamp in the room, sat on a stool, and started knitting a gray sweater.

She knitted a men's sweater, and while knitting, she muttered, "Old man, the sweater is almost done, you're about to get a new one."

Li Lin saw that Wen Xuecha wasn't staying, so he didn't dare to stay alone.

Su Qingyu went down the stairs, the air smelled of mold.

When she reached the lower floor, Su Qingyu stood in the emergency exit and looked out. She saw an empty parking lot.

The floor was painted shiny, the parking area was blue, and the car numbers were painted white.

The long fluorescent lamp emitted a rigid light, only illuminating a small area right under the lamp.

The rest was deathly silence and darkness.

Li Lin rubbed his eyes, he heard the sound of a car engine.

The headlights penetrated the darkness and shone directly into his eyes, in the hazy dust and gradually warming air, he saw his parents waving at him.

"Good boy, come here, let's go home."

The familiar warm voice caused the tension in Li Lin's heart to snap.

His eyes blurred with tears, hot tears welled up.

Go home, he really wanted to go home.

Su Qingyu coldly slammed the fire door leading to the basement.

The moment the light disappeared, Li Lin frantically scratched at the door: "I see the exit! I have to go home! Open the door! My mother will take me home!"

Su Qingyu grabbed Li Lin's collar, raised her hand high, and slammed it down.

"Slap! Slap! Slap!"

Three backhand slaps made Li Lin dizzy.

His cheeks were swollen, the passionate look in his eyes gradually faded, his whole body seemed to have lost its soul as he sat down on the ground: "Just now... just now, what happened to me?"

Wen Xue Cha put her hands on her hips: "You are polluted, your perception is all messed up, it was Sister Yu who saved you."

Li Lin was dissatisfied: "Why am I the only one affected?"

Su Qing Yu smiled slightly, her eyes were clear: "Because only you ate the meat that the rich merchant gave you."

The underground parking lot did not exist, so what they had just seen was all an illusion. Their current location was still the western emergency exit.

Continuing down, the lights had completely disappeared, they could only grope in the darkness.

The road was endless, the stairs went down endlessly, burning everyone's heart.

Walking a little further, Su Qing Yu almost wondered if she was walking down to the eighteenth level of hell.

After nearly fifteen minutes, Su Qingyu finally saw the emergency exit door.

Outside the door was the seventh floor, where they had started!

The corridor was quiet, the doors on both sides of the residents were tightly closed.

Wen Xuecha stared at the number plate of room 703, her soul lost.

If she hadn't read the [Mother's Note] that Su Qingyu had given her, she would have probably rushed to find a way to escape from the [Endless Corridor].

But she had read it, that note gave challengers like them a way out.

Go home.

Return to the first instance, and continue living as a girl NPC.

Outside the instance was a new instance, no one knew what the world had become after the evil spirit awakened.

It was better to accept that fate than…

Su Qingyu looked at Wen Xuecha's eyes and immediately guessed her intention.

She was a little helpless, instances with many people were really troublesome.

If it weren't for her analysis that the death of a teammate would trigger more strangeness, she would rather choose to win alone and respect each person's fate.

Su Qingyu circled the seventh floor again.

Other than the iron sign rule she had discovered earlier, there was nothing special.

The emergency exit door they had just climbed up automatically closed, using a watch to determine the direction, determining that rooms 704, 705, 706 were on the west side.

The direction was the same as the first time.

Su Qingyu knocked on the door of room 701, the door opened slightly, a haggard-faced woman with disheveled hair opened the door, looked around anxiously, and asked softly, "Who are you looking for?"

"A boy wearing a yellow hat asked me to find you, said he was your son, waiting at the corner of the stairs."

The woman's expression changed: "What nonsense are you talking about, my son died a long time ago!

After saying that, the woman slammed the door shut with a "bang".

Su Qingyu rubbed her nose shyly.

Walking down the emergency exit, the boy in the yellow hat was still sitting crying in the corner of the stairs.

Li Lin and Wen Xuecha both pretended not to see, quickly going down to the sixth floor.

Only Su Qingyu stopped.

She needed to find the rules for the clearance, otherwise, no matter how many flights of stairs she climbed, it would be useless.

The boy turned his head, tears streaming down his face, he used the back of his dirty hand to wipe them away: "Sister, did you just go upstairs to find my mother?"

Su Qingyu replied: "My mother is at home, I can go home by myself."

The boy in the yellow hat suddenly became agitated, he sat down on the ground, his two hands pounding the floor: "I'm a child, if my mother doesn't pick me up, how can I go home? My mother definitely doesn't need me, I know that! She wanted to abandon me a long time ago, to follow those weird uncles! She said she was playing hide and seek with me, but in reality, she wanted to abandon me!"

Su Qingyu blinked slightly: "Strange uncle? Who is he?"

"A while ago, a group of strange uncles came through the window into my house, they took my mother away, slammed the bedroom door and played some kind of game with her. I refused, so my mother told me to play hide and seek, made me hide and count to 1000. I counted and counted, but my mother never looked for me... Hu hu hu... my mother definitely doesn't need me..."

The childish voice was immature, filled with heavy resentment.

The yellow-capped boy's eyeballs began to bulge out as if they were about to pop out of their sockets.

Su Qingyu recalled the haggard and old appearance of the woman just now, and immediately gently comforted her: "My mother loves you very much, she will find you. If I see your mother again, I will tell her that you hope she will come and take you home."

The yellow hat boy listened and tilted his head, half-believing and half-doubting: "Really?" "

I will definitely pass on the message."

Only then did the yellow hat boy stop crying and smile: "Sister is so kind, different from the people I've met before. Let me reward you with a secret. A lot of people are stuck here, only those wearing yellow hats know the way out."

The workers were wearing yellow safety helmets.

Su Qingyu frowned slightly: "But those people wearing yellow hats don't talk much."

The boy's eyes suddenly became gloomy, sparkling with an eerie light: "Did you forget? He also has a yellow hat, but he takes it off before going home."

This made Su Qingyu wake up.

In the [Sweet Home] instance, Dad had mentioned that he worked at the Yang Guangyuan project of the Sao Mai Real Estate Company.

It was very normal to transfer personnel between projects within the company.

Mother's note:

[Mom stays at home all the time, you won't see me outside. Dad will go out to work, if you get lost and see dad, you can ask him for directions. Tell me who your dad is.]

It turned out that the customs clearance clue had been given to Su Qingyu from the beginning.

Now, she needed to find her dad.

While Su Qingyu was calculating, Wen Xuecha had already chatted with the old lady on the 6th floor a few times.

Wen Xuecha couldn't help but be curious: "Grandma, why do you come down to the first floor every day?"

The old lady was still carrying the basket, but this time, her basket was full of lamb.

Hearing Wen Xuecha's question, the old lady felt annoyed, her voice filled with resentment: "I do business on the first floor, those sweet-tongued children called me, but they only went to the old lady's house next door to buy things, making me feel so heartbroken."

Seeing Su Qingyu appear, the old lady ignored Wen Xuecha, her gaze fixed on her, making people's hair stand on end.

The old woman's voice rose, her tone as if she was questioning: "Little girl, what did the old woman across the street see? Why is she treating you so well?"

Su Qingyu's voice was calm and absent-minded: "You want to know? Just tell me how to leave this building, and I will answer your questions."

The old woman smiled wickedly: "Want to leave this building? Just take the elevator down to the -2nd floor, the east emergency exit can also be taken down. You go down to the basement, follow the car to the exit and you're done."

What an evil old woman!

Every word and sentence was leading her to her death.

The old woman's malice was clearly written on her face, Su Qingyu didn't intend to waste any more time on this floor.

They went down to the fifth floor.

The couple in room 505 had stopped arguing.

The black-haired girl in the red dress was sitting on the ground, holding a crying baby.

Li Lin walked over to comfort the girl, he took off his coat and put it on her shoulders: "Miss, are you okay?"

The girl bowed her head and sobbed: "Because of a failed investment, my boyfriend wants to break up. Hu hu hu... if it weren't for the child, I wouldn't want to live anymore."

Li Lin quickly suggested: "You can go back to your parents' house, leave here, take the child back to your maternal home."

"You can't get out, you can't get out here."

The woman muttered, her face suddenly distorted, she stuffed the child into Li Lin's arms and started to dance around.

Her body twisted into a strange position, her whole body seemed to be folded into three pieces.

She jumped around crazily, her throat emitting a shrill laugh as if singing a death song.

"They did it on purpose! They're scared! They didn't call the police! They left us stranded here! We'll all be stuck here, dying here! Forever, forever... ha ha ha ha, stuck here, until our skin shrivels and our kidneys fail! Ha ha ha ha ha!"

Li Lin looked at the child in his arms, his face distorted, screaming in horror.

"Face... this is the face of an old man!"

The body of a newborn baby but the face of an old man.

The skin was wrinkled, full of freckles, the eyes were cloudy, the teeth were falling out, the toothless mouth was still moving, demanding to be fed.

He pushed the old baby back into the woman's arms and ran away with all his might.

"Let's go, Ms. Ngu! This woman has lost her mind, let's go quickly!"

Ly Lam pulled To Thanh Ngu's hand, wanting to quickly escape this dangerous place.

"Wait."

To Thanh Ngu still wanted to ask this woman: "Who is the one who deliberately locked you guys up here?"

The woman revealed a resentful expression: "Who else? Besides this damn management company, who else?!"

The woman in the red dress held the baby and sang a lullaby.

The baby calmed her down.

To Thanh Ngu continued to ask: "You just said the management company is afraid? What are they afraid of?"

The woman was as thin as a stick, her face was dark, and she let out a loud laugh: "Want to know these things? Go buy milk for my child. After my child is full, I will tell you what you want."

Su Qingyu agreed to the deal with the woman: "Okay."

When Su Qingyu was about to leave, the woman said again: "I advise you all, the matter of the third and fourth floors, you better not interfere."

The third floor is the rich merchant's hand.

The fourth floor is the charred corpse.

The woman in the red dress held the child, tiptoed around, her red shoes clicking.

The woman did not look human, but her warning was accurate.

The fourth floor was filled with charred corpses, giving off a strong smell of death. The

third floor was filled with the smell of blood, the rich merchant's hand was like a moving mountain of flesh, he had fed Li Lin human flesh, causing Li Lin to be slightly contaminated, almost violating the rule of dying in the garage.

Su Qingyu and the group went down to the fourth floor.

The charred corpses had disappeared.

In the hallway, a man with short black hair, a handsome face, wearing a bluetooth headset, a black mask covering half of his face but could not hide his deep and charming eyes.

He was wearing a black security uniform, the uniform he was wearing exuded a noble aura.

Seeing Su Qingyu and the others coming, the handsome man raised his hand to greet them, his gestures were polite.

Su Qingyu searched for his walkie-talkie, she discovered a black corner sticking out of the man's pocket that looked like the corner of a walkie-talkie.

Wen Xue Cha saw him smile at her, her cheeks flushed, and she asked: "Security guard, why are you here?"

The handsome security guard pointed at the landline on the fourth floor, his voice hoarse: "The fourth floor telephone line was bitten by a rat, someone called to report a repair, I'm going to check."

His voice was like the sound of a torn wind barrel.

Wen Xue Cha immediately became alert: "Your voice..."

This was a dungeon, she was almost fooled by his appearance, and fell into a stupor.

Su Qing Yu cautiously asked: "You said you were here to fix it, why didn't you bring any tools?"

"Go up and check the situation first, I'm not good at repairing things."

The handsome security guard squinted and smiled, he pointed at his throat, and said with a smile: "I got a stroke during the past few days of patrolling, my voice is hoarse, and my voice is a bit hard to hear, I hope you guys will forgive me."

Su Qing Yu walked over to fix the telephone line, the cut was neat, there were no rat teeth marks on it.

It looked more like it was cut by scissors.

According to the rules, there were two security guards in charge of patrolling.

The person wearing a black uniform and holding a walkie-talkie was a security guard, and could ask for help if they encountered a problem.

But Su Qingyu only saw a black uniform, and was not sure if the thing in the security guard's pocket was a walkie-talkie.

Li Lin secretly stuffed a loaf of bread into his backpack and asked the handsome security guard for help: "Handsome security guard, can I have some food?"

Of course, the more food, the better.

Su Qingyu was a little annoyed. She had already given Li Lin food, but after Li Lin tasted the sweetness for the first time, he began to abuse his cunning.

The handsome security guard spread his hands: "I can't help you, isn't there a grocery store downstairs? You can go down there and buy some."

This security guard's way of speaking and attitude were very normal.

Su Qingyu maintained an observant attitude.

Li Lin was rejected, a little surprised, he asked again: "Handsome guy, do you know how to leave this building?"

The handsome security guard looked surprised: "Just go out normally, your question is really strange."

This is a dungeon, too normal becomes abnormal.

Su Qingyu continued to ask: "Is it leaving from the first floor?"

"The area where people ask: "The area we are participating in the renovation, the main door on the first floor is blocked."

The handsome security guard shrugged: "If you want to go out, you can go through the back door of the grocery store on the first floor."

The boy on the stairs said: "The person wearing the yellow hat following that worker can get out."

The security guard said: "Go through the back door of the grocery store."

Who is real and who is fake, it is still unknown.

The handsome security guard stroked his sideburns: "How about this, you can wait for me on the first floor, I will fix the phone line and lead you out."

Hearing this, Li Lin and Wen Xue Cha both looked delighted.

The security guards were good people by law, now that the security guard himself said he could lead them out, it meant that they had found a way to clear the dungeon.

Because of the happy mood, their steps downstairs became lighter.

As soon as they entered the third floor, the smell of blood rushed straight into their noses.

The third floor rich merchant was holding a tray made of carved rosewood, covered with red velvet to cover something protruding.

Seeing Su Qingyu again, the rich merchant showed his yellow teeth, his face beaming, his thick lips like grilled sausages moving: "Beautiful girls, we meet again. Have you changed your mind? Do you want to attend my dinner party?"

"No need."

Su Qingyu focused on his tray: "Uncle, what are you carrying?"

"This is my God of Wealth."

The rich merchant held the tray carefully, afraid of offending his deity: "The other day, I specially went up the mountain to invite a master to help carve this statue. I waited for many days, burned incense, bathed, and fasted, and finally brought the God of Wealth home."

Su Qingyu sniffed lightly, and she noticed a fishy smell gathering around the tray.

According to legend, the God of Wealth is divided into the Little Five Roads God of Wealth and the Great Five Roads God of Wealth.

The Little Five Roads God of Wealth refers to Zhao Gongming and the four great generals under his command.

The Great Five Roads God of Wealth includes: the Eastern Road God of Wealth Ty Can, the Southern Road God of Wealth Sai Wangye, the Western Road God of Wealth Guan Gong, the Northern Road God of Wealth Zhao Gongming, and the Central Road God of Wealth Wang Hoi.

She curiously asked: "Which God of Wealth do you worship?"

The rich merchant mysteriously held up five fingers.

Su Qingyu was suspicious: "You brought all the Five Roads God of Wealth home?"

"I worship the Five Gods of Wealth, and those who worship them will be rich for life."

The rich merchant's eyes were filled with enthusiasm: "This Ngu Thong Than is much stronger than the usual God of Wealth. Since I started worshiping Ngu Thong Than, my business has been booming. In less than a year, not only did I pay off all my gambling debts, I even bought a building, hehe."

After saying that, the rich merchant flipped the red cloth, on the tray were statues of five men, not with green faces and sharp fangs, nor did they look fierce.

Long eyebrows, a jade hat on their heads, and wrinkles in the shape of the number eight.

Su Qingyu had never heard of the title Ngu Thong Than before.

She was about to ask more when an angry young woman's voice came from room 302, disrupting her plan.

"Dad, are you bringing a statue of a god home again? It's easy to bring a god in, but hard to send him off! I've told you so many times, my body can't take it!"

The rich merchant's face twitched: "My daughter called me, sorry, sorry."

After saying that, the rich merchant left.

Wen Xue Cha's face turned pale, she covered her mouth with her hand and whispered: "My great-grandmother once said that this Five-Community God is not an orthodox god but an evil god. Five-Community God is afraid of light, the mountain area where my grandmother lived before had a secret shrine to Five-Community God, believers often nailed women to stakes as sacrifices. It is said that if you worship Five-Community God carefully, you will get rich quickly, even faster than worshiping orthodox gods and Buddhas. If you are careless, you will encounter terrible disasters."

"Evil god."

Su Qing Yu pointed at the door of room 302: "You two keep watch, if there is any movement, signal me."

"Sister Yu, what are you going to do?"

Wen Xue Cha saw Su Qing Yu walk to the door of room 302, raised her hand and knocked lightly.Su Qingyu knocked twice, and two knocks came from room 302.

"Can you hear me? If you can, knock once."

The door was knocked loudly.

"Were you locked in here by the rich merchant? If so, knock once."

The door was knocked loudly again.

From the first time she came to the third floor, Su Qingyu had recognized that the key chain on the rich merchant's belt was the same type.

The last time the rich merchant walked out of room 302, walked through the hallway, and opened the door to room 304.

So both 302 and 304 were the rich merchant's homes.

Su Qingyu pressed against the door and asked, "Can you talk?"

There was no answer from inside.

It was impossible to say, was her mouth gagged or her tongue cut off?

"Did the rich merchant force you to stay here? If so, knock once."

The door was knocked loudly.

The woman in red advised Su Qingyu not to interfere with the third floor's affairs, but Su Qingyu needed to gather as many clues as possible to find a way to escape the Endless Corridor.

"Do you know the exit? If you know, knock once. If you don't know, knock twice."

The door was knocked once.

This knock was more hesitant. After Su Qingyu's question, the other side of the door was silent for a few seconds.

Su Qingyu drew a line for the person in the room: "Try to protect yourself. If there is a chance, I will save you."

Save that hammer.

Without providing a clue to clear the passage, it was considered a useless ghost.

They continued down to the second floor.

The choir of the elderly in room 205 was still singing loudly:

"The sky was dark, the road was dark, in the forest appeared a handsome man.

The handsome man, his stomach growling, lit a fire to cook a beautiful girl.

The beautiful girl, sobbing, called the rich father at home.

The rich father, his stomach was huge, pouring out a pot of fatty fat! ..."

The handsome man in the song's lyrics immediately made Su Qingyu think of the handsome security guard.

Suddenly, the old man in black clothes in the last row coughed violently.

His dentures popped out as if something was stuck in his throat, and he struggled to beat his chest.

The old men in the room were in chaos like a broken beehive.

At this moment, an old woman waved her hand to signal for help.

Following the old woman's beckoning gesture, the men and women who were in chaos suddenly stopped, stood up straight, and raised their right hands to wave at them.

Li Lin's teeth were chattering: "Let's run, they're not normal!"

Running away like that is contrary to the image of mutual love, solidarity and support among neighbors.

Su Qingyu shouted loudly inside: "Sorry, we don't study medicine, saving people indiscriminately is the same as harming people. It seems like the old man is choking on something, he needs professional first aid, you should quickly call a doctor for help."

Their waving movements stopped, their hands hanging down, standing stiffly.

Su Qingyu continued: "If it's too late to call a doctor, you can ask the security guard for help. The security guard is well-trained, he will definitely be more helpful than us three."

Rules 1 and 3 of the resident rules:

[As good neighbors living in the same building, you need to try your best to maintain a friendly attitude towards other residents.]

[Be wary of the security guards patrolling the hallway, they always like to meddle in other people's business.]

The old men and women heard the security guard, looked at each other, then the first old woman waved to the door, "bang" slammed the door shut.

Su Qingyu's lips curled slightly, it seemed that the kind neighbor's friendly advice had been bluntly rejected.

The three of them went downstairs, and the security guard wearing a black mask had been waiting for them for a long time.

The parrot in the grocery store was lying dejectedly in its cage, and the security guard stood in front of the store, whispering to the old lady knitting.

The old lady was coaxed by him and smiled.

Seeing Su Qingyu and the others arrive, the old lady gently pulled the security guard's sleeve, used her hand to signal a few numbers, and then leaned close to the security guard's ear to whisper something.

The security guard's eyes flashed with a strange light, then looked towards Su Qingyu.

The eyes of a predator.

Like a man-eating beast in the deep forest, lurking in the dark corner, slowly baring its fangs.

The old lady gave the handsome security guard three bottles of water, and the security guard walked over with the water, giving each person a bottle.

Li Lin unscrewed the cap, tilted his head back, and drank it all.

He wiped his mouth: "Brother, seeing you is like seeing hope."

The handsome security guard snapped his fingers: "Don't be polite, if you said you wanted to find a way out earlier, I would have led you guys away a long time ago."

Wen Xue Cha also had a good feeling for this security guard, she hugged the water bottle with both hands, her long eyelashes fluttered like butterfly wings: "Can you leave this building with us?"

She thought, even without taking off her mask, this security guard's aura was comparable to a celebrity.

Willing to lead them away and even give them water to drink, he was definitely a kind NPC.

If he could leave the dungeon, she would definitely rip off his mask, and in the real world develop a relationship with him that went beyond friendship.

"Of course."

The handsome security guard suddenly raised his hand, gently wiping the dust off Wen Xue Cha's cheeks, "Sorry, there's some dirt on your face."

Wen Xue Cha's ears immediately turned red.

"Let's go, I've already negotiated with the grocery store owner."

The security guard intended to lead them away from this place.

It seemed like victory was in sight.

The old lady nodded and smiled at the three of them, signaling them to come in.

Su Qingyu stood still in place, asking the guard, "Have you finished fixing the phone on the fourth floor?"

"Finished."

The guard had already entered the grocery store.

Li Lin and Wen Xuecha were both preparing to follow the guard.

Su Qingyu slowly said, "Li Lin, Wen Xuecha, let's go to the fourth floor to make a call, contact the security office to confirm the exit with another guard, okay?"

"Huh? But we can't go straight up, we have to go around from the bottom up again."

Wen Xuecha recalled the dark stairs just now, and resistance rose in her heart.

Continue going down, go back to the seventh floor, then go down to the fourth floor.

Too troublesome.

Li Lin had already entered the grocery store, he turned his head and said, "Don't come back anymore, I've already seen the exit. You two come here quickly, let's escape from here together."

The handsome security guard also coaxed: "I will go first, if there is danger, you can retreat at any time. Don't stand there anymore, just leave with your friends."

The parrot in the grocery store suddenly jumped around in its cage: "Chiu chiu — enter the store — chiu chiu chiu —"

Su Qingyu observed Li Lin's changing attitude, he had already entered the grocery store, if the grocery store was also considered a resident's home, then Li Lin accepting the invitation of the "old lady" might have violated the rules. Her

hatred of fools was about to rise.

Her heart turned cold, looking at Wen Xuecha who had not yet entered the grocery store: "'What do you choose? Come with me or escape from here?"

Wen Xuecha felt awkward: "I... I..." Li Lin's entire body stepped into the grocery store, his expression became dull, the weak fear between his eyebrows completely disappeared, replaced by indifference.

"Come here, come here."

His vocabulary became poor, only repeating those three words over and over again.

The dim light in the grocery store shone on his face, he became extremely attuned to this world.

"Then I won't go anywhere for now."

Wen Xue Cha also noticed Li Lin's abnormality, she stomped her feet, pulled at the hem of her shirt, and finally walked towards Su Qing Yu: "I'd better be careful."

"What a pity, we could have left together."

Li Lin followed the guard into the back door of the grocery store, not looking back.

His figure was gradually swallowed by the grocery store, until he disappeared from everyone's sight.

The wind chimes in front of the store rang out a clear sound like jade hitting each other.

Wen Xue Cha's heart was empty. Li Lin was gone, he had a place to return to, she was still struggling in this dungeon.

Could she really survive and escape?

No one had an answer to that question.

"Let's go, it's not dark yet."

Not seeing the construction team, Su Qingyu did not intend to stay on the first floor.

She put the bottle of water on the counter of the grocery store: "I don't need this bottle of water anymore."

There was no convenient place in this corridor to relieve personal needs.

Choosing to eat dry bread was to limit physiological needs.

The old woman's face twitched, she put the iron needle into the basket of wool, then raised her withered hand: "The goods have been sold, no returns. Please pay 10 hell coins."

Indeed, it was so.

The old woman's demand for money did not surprise Su Qingyu.

The guard who had just taken the water from the store, Su Qingyu did not see the process of him paying at all.

Not paying and not helping the old woman clean up the trash in front of the door, and even drinking the water, Li Lin was in for a bad time.

"Then I'll buy some more adult diapers and a bottle of milk."

Not knowing when she would be able to escape this instance, Su Qingyu's heart was not empty, she could only bring extra supplies.

"A total of 120 hell coins."

Su Qingyu gave the old lady 130 hell coins, including the bottle of water in Wen Xuecha's hand.

"Are there any other snacks here?"

The old lady lifted her drooping eyelids: "There are dried sweet potatoes, chips, spicy cakes..."

"Not those things, not for people to eat, they are things he likes to eat."

Su Qingyu recalled the previous instance, the snacks his younger brother bought from outside were all strings of fingers.

The old lady suddenly covered her face: "Finally, there is a connoisseur!"

She pulled out a glass jar the size of a water bottle from under the counter, inside of which was a hand holding a fist.

"Children love this kind of canned sweets, today I met a connoisseur, I'll only charge 3000 hell coins."

In this grocery store,Human supplies are very affordable.

But food for monsters is exorbitantly expensive.

Su Qingyu immediately bought the box of hand meat, Wu Xin licked her lips greedily.

Su Qingyu hugged the box of canned food tightly and pretended not to see.

Entering the emergency exit, the green light above the passageway flashed randomly as if it was about to run out of power.

Rule 3 of [Endless Corridor]

[There is a green light above the emergency exit, you can only go down, not up.]

This instance had a time limit, Su Qingyu guessed that when the green light above the emergency exit went out, it would also be the time when the grim reaper's scythe would slash down, the exit would disappear forever.

Su Qingyu turned on the flashlight on her tablet to light the way.

Going down the emergency exit stairs, the steps were now much higher than last time, the slope was almost 80 degrees vertical.

The light from the tablet only illuminated a short distance.

Wen Xuecha followed closely behind, her tablet reported low battery and suddenly turned off.

"Ah! Sister Yu, I can't see you anymore!"

Wen Xuecha patted the tablet, panicking in her heart.

"Don't panic, hold on to the handrail and slowly walk down."

Su Qingyu's tablet showed that it had 60% battery left.

Wen Xuecha felt her back go cold, and the cold wind blew through the elevator.

She said, "This place is much colder than the first time we went down."

Not only was it colder, Su Qingyu could also hear the steady breathing of the third person.

That breathing seemed to be right next to her.

Continuing down.

Darkness poured in, enveloping Su Qingyu.

To prevent any accidents, Su Qingyu took out ten thousand hell coins and placed them on Wuxin's bony hand, ordering, "Take me downstairs, remember not to break the rules."

"Yes, my master."

Wuxin carried Su Qingyu in the darkness, Su Qingyu's heart skipped a beat, and the strong smell of grave soil from his body rushed straight into her nose.

She actually wanted Wu Xin to lead her forward, but he carried her up.

Forget it, now was not the time to be so formal.

His icy fingers were placed on her waist, and his footsteps were silent as he walked down.

The cold wind with a strong fishy smell from his chest rushed straight into Su Qingyu's face, seeping through her pores, making her shiver.

Wen Xuecha groped her way down, when suddenly, she felt a cold hand grab her wrist.

"Sister... Sister Yu, are you holding my hand?"

In the darkness, there was no response.

Wen Xuecha's heart skipped a beat, and she tried to pull her hand away.

"It's me... cough cough cough..."

A voice rang out right next to Wen Xuecha's ear, and this voice was completely not Su Qingyu's voice.

Wen Xuecha's goosebumps rose all over her body, and she immediately used her other hand to pull away the hand that was tightly gripping her wrist.

"Swoosh—"

Something cut into Wen Xuecha's wrist.

Su Qingyu heard breathing right above her head, the rustling sounds became clearer and clearer, something was crawling on top of her head.

"Wu Xin, help me see what's on my head?"

"Master, I can't see without light."

A yellow level monster couldn't see in the dark, it was really embarrassing.

Su Qingyu's long black hair was loose, she clearly felt someone pulling her hair.

Wu Xin's two hands were holding her...

"Wu Xin, there's something behind us!"

"I have a demonic blade, I can kill it."

"No need, following the rules is the most important. Don't look back, let's leave this place."

If that monster was capable, he would have broken her neck long ago in the dark.

He only dared to pull her hair to make a small disturbance,proving that the demons could not kill them directly.

It was luring Su Qingyu to break the rules.

And to be able to directly touch the challenger, this freak was not simple.

Finally seeing the exit, Wu Xin hugged Su Qingyu tightly and walked towards the light.

The exit led straight to the 7th floor, this time Su Qingyu did not see the parking lot.

She jumped out of Wu Xin's arms, nodding her head in thanks to him.

Wu Xin's face was expressionless.

As a freak, he usually would not take the initiative to talk to the challenger.

Wen Xuecha had not yet left the exit.

Standing in the middle of the 7th floor hallway, Su Qingyu quickly determined the direction.

The building opposite, the number of people walking in the hallway had decreased a lot compared to the beginning.

"Gulp—gulp—"

Fresh red blood flowed out in a stream from the crack in the door of room 702.

Su Qingyu avoided the pool of blood and continued to knock on the door of room 701.

The haggard woman opened the door, stuck half her head in the crack of the door, and when she saw Su Qingyu, her eyes widened in surprise: "Why haven't you left yet?"

"I came to find you."

The woman looked behind Su Qingyu in confusion and exclaimed in panic: "That's not right! Where are your two friends? You came with a man and a woman just now, why are you alone now?"

Su Qingyu calmly replied: "My friend has something to do and can't follow him up here."

The woman immediately panicked: "Then you leave immediately! Don't stay here! This place is very dangerous, he will discover you at any time! Don't go to the 7th floor alone, otherwise if he discovers you, you won't be able to escape!"

Who is he? Su Qingyu secretly wondered, but she needed to seize the moment, she couldn't ask any more questions.

Seeing the woman about to close the door, Su Qingyu quickly clamped the mineral water bottle into the crack of the door, smiling lightly: "Sister, don't close the door yet. Your son told me that you played hide and seek with him, told him to count to 1000 and then hide. He has already counted from 1 to 1000, now he is waiting for you to find him. He is hiding in a very easy-to-find place, I hope you can take him home."

After hearing this, the woman's hand that was closing the door suddenly stopped. She covered her mouth, two streams of hot tears rolled down her cheeks, falling from her sharp chin.

Those tears were the broken heart of a mother.

"How did you know that my son and I played hide and seek?"

The woman quickly wiped her tears, trying to hide her emotions.

Su Qingyu saw that one of the woman's arms was wrapped in bandages, the other arm was full of dents as if pieces of flesh had been cut by a knife.

The old wounds had dried up, leaving behind black, sunken scars.

The new wounds were still bleeding, the old wounds were piled on top of the new ones, no wonder this woman was haggard, her face pale.

"It was your son who told me, he is waiting for you to pick him up."

After the woman heard, her tears were like a broken dam, her hands were shaking: "My poor child cannot rest in peace. Girl, you go quickly, don't stay on this floor for too long. Tie one end of this red string to my son's wrist, throw the other end to the upper floor, tell him that mommy will pick him up and take him home."

The red string was stuffed into the palm of her hand, after the sun had set behind the mountain, Su Qingyu quickly determined the direction, went down the emergency exit without waiting for Wen Xuecha.

Staying on the 7th floor alone was too dangerous, she decided to spend the night on the 6th floor.

On the way down, she tied a pink rubber band to the exact emergency exit handle, if Wen Xuecha saw it, it would show her the way.

At the corner of the stairs, the boy in the yellow cap was banging his head against the wall, counting a number each time he banged.

"650,649..."

Like a soulless corpse, she counted mechanically.

Su Qingyu came behind the yellow hat boy, but the boy did not turn his head, only coldly saying: "Sister, why are you alone?"

Unlike the previous two times, this time the yellow hat boy did not immediately ask about his mother.

The dungeon began to change according to the influence of the number of participants.

Su Qingyu felt that after dealing with the boy, she needed to go find Wen Xuecha.

Without answering the yellow hat boy's question, Su Qingyu took out a box of palm meat from her body.

"Little friend, do you want some snacks?"

Smelling the scent, the boy turned his head 180 degrees. His forehead was already dented from the impact, and when he saw the food box, he clapped his hands happily: "Sister, is this for me?"

"Yes, it's for me."

Su Qingyu put the box on the ground.

The little boy took the box, stuck out his tongue and licked around the edge of the box, then raised his face full of all kinds of wounds with an innocent look: "Sister, you're so good. Have you found my mother? I miss her so much. I don't want to stay on the stairs alone anymore, I want to go home, I want to be with her forever."

Su Qingyu pulled out the red string, without looking directly at the little boy's face, she skillfully tied one end of the string around his wrist: "I found it, your mother said that as long as you tie this red string, she will come and take you home."

Su Qingyu threw the other end of the string behind her.

The loose string suddenly became tense.

The little boy in the yellow hat was guided by the string, he stood up, his left hand tightly holding the box of hand flesh, his right hand holding a box of black ash.

When the little boy stood up, the yellow hat on his head fell to the ground.

The top of his head was like an iron box with the lid off, inside was a viscous liquid shaking.

The little boy started to cry, tears of blood flowing from his eyes.

"Sister, thank you, mom finally agreed to take me home."

The little boy walked to Su Qingyu's side, grabbed her hand, Su Qingyu felt a chilling coldness penetrate through the back of her hand.

His hand was as cold as a corpse, he opened her palm, opened his pitch-black mouth and spat out a tiny walnut from his stomach.

The walnut, only the size of a thumbnail, rolled into her palm, carrying a painful feeling as if it was being corroded by acid.

"To thank you, this is a small gift for you."

The little boy left the walnut, and walked up the stairs step by step following the red string.

Su Qingyu put his thank you gift in his pocket, holding onto the handrail as he went down.

When he reached the 6th floor, the sky outside the corridor was completely pitch-black.

Standing in the night looking out, one could see the opposite buildings reflecting the red light from the glass windows of the apartments.

To Thanh Ngu couldn't help but wonder if there was a giant red moon in the sky, adding brilliance to this strange world.

The old lady's son on the 6th floor carried back half a live lamb, the strong smell of lamb meat filled the air.

The heavy lamb was pressed against the man's shoulders, split in half, half of the lamb's head dangling from his shoulder. It could be seen from the man's expression that carrying the heavy weight was very tiring.

The man kept staring at Su Qingyu.

Su Qingyu did not speak to him, she intended to wait for Wen Xuecha here for a while.

The old lady in room 604 opened the door for the man, the old lady saw that her beloved son had returned, her face lit up with happiness, she helped her son carry the lamb into the house.

"Girl, why are you standing outside the door? It's dark, do you want to come in and have a bowl of hot lamb bone soup?"

The old lady coaxed Su Qingyu into the house, but Su Qingyu did not fall for it at all.

Seeing this, the old lady teased her son. The man entered the house carrying a bowl of steaming soup, offering it to Su Qingyu with both hands: "Beautiful little sister, have some soup."

Wu Xin took the bowl of soup, the layer of lamb fat and foam rolling on the surface of the water. He locked his dark eyes on the man, holding out his white bony hand: "Please give me a spoon."

The man wiped the grease from his hands on his white shirt, his eyes cold as a poisonous snake.

The old woman quickly took the spoon and put it in the bowl, smiled warmly at Wu Xin, then pulled her son into the house.

Wu Xin used the spoon to stir the soup evenly: "According to the master, fast nine meals a day."

?

Su Qing Yu pointed at herself with her index finger: "Wu Xin, are you talking to me?"

There was no one else here.

Wu Xin originally did not have white eyes, but Su Qing Yu felt that Wu Xin was sneering at her.

Monsters have no feelings, they are born from pollution, gathering all the darkness and distortion, their only existence is to destroy and annihilate.

Su Qingyu should be steadfast in this understanding.

But the gap between monsters is too great, causing her heart to waver.

In addition to the monsters controlled by the dungeon with stereotypical behavior, there are definitely monsters like Song Xi and Wu Xin, monsters that sign contracts with humans.

Wu Xin is smarter than Song Xi, knows how to directly express hunger and actively seek food.

He even knows how to complain to Su Qingyu.

On the surface, they seem friendly, harmless, and can communicate.

But in fact, they are extremely dangerous existences, like a double-edged sword, one side points outward while the other side also aims at the person holding the sword.

The novel "The Arrival of Horror" once mentioned that monsters sign contracts with humans to obtain everything they need such as flesh and blood, hell money...

It cannot be said to be loyal.

During the long process of the contract, it is absolutely impossible for a demon to develop feelings for a human. On the contrary, only fools would dare to fall in love with a demon.

When some high-level demons realized that pretending to have emotions helped them squeeze more benefits from their masters, they began to become "sentimental".

If people blindly believed in that fake love, they would be countered by demons.

In the novel, there was a story about a man who, after signing a contract with the Ghost Bride, fell in love with the Ghost Bride because the Ghost Bride saved his life several times.

When he learned that the Ghost Bride had been pierced in the heart by a nail during her lifetime, he was not only not afraid but also pitied her, vowing to be good to her for the rest of his life.

Gradually, even though he did not need to use the Ghost Bride's power, he still often used his own flesh and blood to nourish the Ghost Bride.

He put a ring on the Ghost Bride, covered her face, and every night hugged the Ghost Bride's cold body to his chest to sleep.

Even when he was torn to pieces and eaten by the Ghost Bride, he was still immersed in the world of love.

As for the Ghost Bride, after her master died, she licked his thigh bone clean, returned to the dungeon and waited for her new master to take her away.

People were easily moved by monsters like Song Hy, Vo Tam or Ghost Bride - those who still maintained a human appearance. But their nature was no different from those monsters with twelve limbs or eight heads.

To Thanh Ngu gently rubbed his temples, spread out his sleeping bag, found a comfortable position to lean back, and relaxed his body.

Vo Tam finished the bowl of lamb bone soup, perhaps not feeling full enough, he walked straight to knock on the door of room 604.

The old lady opened the door, thinking it was To Thanh Ngu, so she was trying to lure her into the house, but unexpectedly saw Vo Tam holding an empty bowl.

"One more bowl."

Wu Xin also shook the empty bowl lightly.

Su Qing Yu looked at Wu Xin from behind, his clothes were in tatters, the silver crown that tied his hair was also oxidized black, holding the empty bowl in his hand, he looked no different from a beggar.

The old woman completely ignored Wu Xin, snatched the bowl from his hand and was about to close the door.

Wu Xin pushed her away, rushing straight into her house.

"Wu Xin!"

Su Qing Yu immediately stood up, she clearly remembered what Song Xi had said, in other copies, the abilities of the ghosts would be severely weakened.

Room 604 was clearly the old woman's territory.

Charging in like this was truly too risky.

Su Qingyu had already gone through two dungeons, and in these two dungeons she had never had the chance to sign a contract with a ghost.

And the novel "The Arrival of Horrors" also mentioned that signing a contract with a ghost required extremely strict conditions.

The right time and place, not a single thing could be missing. Not only did she need to be strong enough, she also had to be recognized by the ghost.

Therefore, Su Qingyu did not want to lose a single tribute card in vain.

A white-level Double Happiness was indeed much easier to handle, and this gold-level Wuxin was truly a rebellious son.

Su Qingyu tried to use words to order Wuxin to go out, but after the door to room 604 slammed shut, her orders could not be conveyed.

She had no choice but to wait until the next morning, when the "creak" sound of the door to room 604 opened, waking Su Qingyu, who had been in a light sleep.

Wuxin walked out, wiping the blood around his mouth.

Seeing that he was unharmed, Su Qingyu was a little surprised.

Then she realized something, her frown gradually relaxed, her black eyes flashed with joy.

In the first instance, Song Xi only touched the album in the room and was scratched by the black cat, almost breaking the tribute card.

Room 604 not only had the old lady, but also the son who could carry half a sheep.

Two strange monsters were in their own territory, Wu Xin brazenly barged in and was safe and sound, which could only prove one thing - Wu Xin was stronger than the old lady and her son.

Wu Xin's face was satisfied, her white bone hand was red with blood.

It looked like she had just finished a sumptuous meal.

Su Qing Yu raised her head, her black eyes shining brightly: "Wu Xin, what's in the room?"

"A lot of 'two-legged goats'."

"So how many did you eat?"

From deep in her throat, Wu Xin suddenly let out a hoarse laugh: "Eaten them all."

"Ha."

Su Qingyu laughed, she took out ten thousand hell coins and slapped them on Wu Xin's hand: "From now on, without my permission, you are not allowed to be more than one meter away from me."

"Yes, sir."

Su Qingyu's eyes revealed a mischievous look: "Don't worry, you are so strong, I will definitely make full use of it."

Wen Xuecha slipped and fell down the stairs, rolling all the way to the 6th floor.

Her pigtail was half loose, messy like a bird's nest, her face was pale, her body was exhausted. When she saw Su Qingyu, she raised her hand and called out "Sister Yu" and then fainted.

Su Qingyu ran to support Wen Xuecha, she discovered that her left hand was tightly holding the pink rubber band.

Fortunately, Wen Xuecha paid attention to the hint she left, and escaped the 7th floor safely.

Su Qingyu helped her lean against the corridor wall, carefully unscrewed the cap of the water bottle, gave her a few sips, and then pressed her philtrum.

A while later, Van Tuyet Tra slowly woke up.

Seeing Su Qingyu, Wen Xuecha cried out in pain, hugged Su Qingyu, hid her face in her waist, and said in a chaotic voice: "Sister Yu, it's terrible! The entire 7th floor hallway is covered in blood!" "Do

n't panic, tell me what happened to you?"

Su Qingyu gently stroked her hair.

Van Tuyet Tra tried to calm down, her voice trembling: "I... I went down from the first floor, it was pitch black. I remember following you, but then I couldn't hear you anymore. In the darkness, there was a hand pulling me, and someone imitating your voice. That voice was too enthusiastic, too urgent, it was clearly not you. When I pulled away from that scratched hand, I hurriedly went down and saw the basement parking lot. I saw Ly Lam sitting in the car, he said he found the key and invited me to go with him. Hu hu hu... Ly Lam must be dead, otherwise I wouldn't have seen him there..."

"I know the rule says there is no basement, but I couldn't control my actions. In the moment of crisis, I squeezed my wound, the pain brought me back to my senses. I continued going down for a long time before returning to the 7th floor. It wasn't dawn yet, I didn't see you on the 7th floor, I only saw blood all over the floor. The doors to the rooms on the 7th floor were wide open, each room had It was pitch black. I noticed something was wrong and wanted to leave, but I couldn't tell which way was east or west."

"My intuition told me something was coming out of those rooms, I absolutely couldn't stay on the 7th floor! Luckily, I saw the pink rubber band that Ms. Ngu left behind, found the right exit, and ran down here. Strangely enough, this time I didn't see the boy in the yellow hat at the corner of the stairs anymore…"

Su Qingyu half-jokingly eased the atmosphere: "That boy has been saved by me."

Unexpectedly, Wen Xuecha's face was filled with horror: "What kind of saving? Saving by physics?"

"What are you thinking? Do I look that violent?"

Su Qingyu held her forehead: "I helped the boy fulfill his obsession, and received a clue that the construction team might have a way to clear the dungeon."

This statement was half-true and half-false, Su Qingyu hid the story of the boy giving her walnuts.

Wen Xuecha was still haunted by seeing Li Lin in the basement, after all, they were long-time teammates.

People in the same situation would feel sorry for each other when they saw each other.

She sighed: "Sister Yu, do you think Brother Li has successfully escaped the dungeon or has... Haizz... There were many ways to clear the previous dungeon, will there be many ways to escape this dungeon?"

"The living are still worried, he's already gone, life and death for us no longer have any meaning."

Su Qingyu patted Wen Xuecha's shoulder: "Let's go, let's continue downstairs."

On the 5th floor, the handsome security guard appeared in the hallway again.

The black mask covered half of his face, and the uniform underneath seemed to have changed to a gray sweater.

He waved at Su Qingyu, who pretended not to see him, holding Wen Xuecha's hand and quickly walked down to the 4th floor.

But the handsome security guard still persistently chased after them.

On the 4th floor, a middle-aged woman wearing a black security uniform, holding a walkie-talkie in her hand, was using a screwdriver to fix a phone.

Seeing the walkie-talkie, Su Qingyu's pupils contracted, and she immediately called out to the middle-aged woman for help: "Security lady, there's a stranger chasing me, please help chase him away!"

The security lady ripped off the "handsome security guard's" mask, and underneath was an old face.

Half of his face was youthful and smooth, while the other half was wrinkled like an old man.

"It turns out to be an old man!"

Van Tuyet Tra's dream of the handsome and charming "security guard" was shattered: "Security guard, he's a fraud, he dares to impersonate you! Beat him to death!"

Women can change their faces faster than turning a book .

The security guard roared angrily, she swung her fist and hit the old man's chin: "Give me back my uniform! Get down to the first floor now! Don't hang around the floors anymore! If I see you again, I'll smash your dentures!"

The old man couldn't get his mask back, he took off his uniform and threw it on the ground, covered the lower half of his face with both hands, and quickly entered the west emergency exit.

"Really!"

The security guard picked up the uniform and dusted it off: "These residents don't leave anyone in peace at all."

The black plastic box in his pocket revealed the thing the old man used as a walkie-talkie to fool them.

"Security guard,Can I ask if this phone is fixed yet?

The woman put the screwdriver in her tool bag: "It's fixed, do you need to call?"

"No need for now."

Su Qingyu looked straight at her: "Can you tell me how we can get out of this building?"

The security guard replied: "We used to go from the first floor, but the building is under renovation now, and the exit to the first floor is blocked."

"How long will it take to fix it?"

"It might take another half month."

"That's not right, then how did those work teams get in?"

Su Qingyu thought of the monster hopping on its head again: "And the visitors who come to visit the residents, how did they get in?"

The security guard waved her hand and complained, "I don't know about this. It must have been arranged by the management company. The management company is very capable. They don't discuss anything with us. There are so many workers. Every time they come, they come in such a large group. What if they accidentally get caught by bad guys? The management company is really irresponsible. They don't care about the lives of the residents here!"

Such a large team of workers couldn't just appear and disappear.

They definitely have a way to leave this building.

Su Qingyu raised her eyes and asked, "Then where is your security station?"

"My colleagues and I always patrol this building. At night, we rest in the hallway. This situation will continue until the renovations are completed and the first floor reopens."

The security guard was straightforward and kept talking, "Even though we're not official employees, I love this job very much."

"Here, if the residents have problems and need our help, we can come immediately."

Wen Xue Cha handed her unfilled water bottle to the security guard, smiling with sweet dimples: "Security lady, you look tired and sweaty, have some water." Ghosts

usually don't eat the food of ordinary people.

Hearing Wen Xue Cha call her "sister", the security lady was overjoyed.

She took the water bottle, said thank you, then tilted her head back and drank it all.

After drinking, she wiped her mouth and whispered: "If you want to go out, you can ask the residents here, maybe they know some secret passages."

Su Qing Yu's eyes flashed with a cold light: "Is the back door of the grocery store on the first floor a secret passage to the outside?"

The security lady curled her lips in disdain: "There's no way out there, don't let that old lady on the first floor fool you. That store is very uncultured, selling things at exorbitant prices, and often leaves trash in front of the door."

"Their store does have a back door, but it opens to a warehouse."

Hearing this, the light in Su Qingyu's eyes darkened.

The handsome security guard was wearing a gray sweater knitted by the old lady on the first floor. He was the old husband that the old lady in the grocery store often mentioned.

The grocery store was where the old man and the old lady lived. The old man wore a black mask and pretended to be a security guard, tricking Li Lin into entering the grocery store. Li Lin accepted the invitation to enter the store, violating the rules, with less good and more bad.

From the current clues, three ways to escape the Endless Corridor instance could be deduced.

The first way: find your father in the construction team and ask for his help.

This clue was revealed by the boy after Su Qingyu helped him.

The second way: live for another half a month, wait for the apartment building to be repaired and the first floor passage to reopen.

This clue was revealed by the security lady.

The third way: capture the criminal who sneaked into the building and call the police.

This clue was derived from rule 12 of [Endless Corridor]:

[Remember every neighbor you have met. If you see a strange face, immediately call the security guard. If the security guard confirms that it is a criminal who sneaked in, call the police. The police number is 65*21.]

You cannot call the police at will, you must confirm that it is a criminal before calling.

And that strange face cannot be a registered visitor, nor a repair worker.

The police number was also mentioned in the note from mother.

The police were the key.

The first reason why this instance had a difficulty of 3 stars was because the environment did not have any clearance rules written on paper.

As for the second reason, Su Qingyu thought of the change on the 7th floor...

The second reason was that every time a teammate died, the danger level of the dungeon would increase.

The pools of blood on the 7th floor corridor, the strange hand pulling Wen Xue Cha's wrist as she walked down the stairs were all proof.

Su Qing Yu's heart was filled with unease. She knew that this dungeon had become extremely dangerous.

They had to find a way out, otherwise they would share the same fate as Li Lin, becoming a sacrifice for this dungeon.

Without hesitation, Su Qing Yu turned around and entered the emergency exit, following the pitch-black stairs down.

Because of her previous experience, Wen Xue Cha had to calm herself down before daring to enter that abyssal passage.

She took a deep breath, mustered up her courage, groped her way step by step, carefully following Su Qing Yu so as not to get lost.

When she reached the 5th floor, a bright light shone straight into Su Qing Yu's eyes.

She raised her hand to cover her eyes, squinting and looking forward.

It was the man in room 505.

He dragged his crippled right leg towards the fire exit.

Seeing Su Qingyu, he panicked and turned off the flashlight, put his finger on his lips and said "shh", clasped his hands and begged with pleading eyes.

Su Qingyu and Wen Xuecha looked at each other, both of them kept silent.

The man limped into the fire exit, closed the fire door tightly, and said to them tremblingly: "What are you two doing here? There's a crazy woman on this floor, don't let her see you, or she'll use your blood to feed that little monster."

"You mean the woman in the red dress holding the baby?"

Su Qingyu came to give her milk.

The man stepped back in fear: "Do you know her? Or are you guys accomplices?!"

Su Qingyu smiled: "Hey buddy, don't be nervous, I'm not her accomplices. Tell me what happened to you?"

This kind of NPC was naturally used to explore the secrets of the dungeon.

The man leaned against the wall and leisurely said, "I'm a friend of the landlord. He invited me to visit."

"Wait, how did you get into this building?"

It was obvious that this building could be entered and exited, but Su Qingyu had not found the right way.

The crippled man was bewildered: "I followed the management company staff in. At that time, we passed a very dark road. I couldn't see clearly."

Su Qingyu pondered for a moment, "You continue..."

The man told Su Qingyu his tragic story.

"When I got to the 5th floor, I knocked on my friend's door. It was my friend who opened the door, but before I could say hello, I suddenly felt a sharp pain in the back of my neck. I felt as if something had hit my head and I lost consciousness. When I woke up, I found myself tied up in a strange room. The woman in the red dress was holding an old baby, the baby's whole body was covered in blood. I recognized this woman,that is my friend's girlfriend

"I begged her to let me go, but she looked so strange, her eyes were lifeless, completely unlike a normal person. Even my friend stood beside that strange woman, looking at me indifferently. Honestly, I felt like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, my heart was filled with despair. That woman held a sharp knife, half a bowl of blood in her hand, and approached me. I knew I had been tricked by my friend, and that it would be difficult for me to escape."

"That woman told me that she was trapped in this building, unable to go out, with no food or water, and that her child was so pitiful that she needed my blood to feed it. Knowing that I had no way out, I pretended to cooperate. That crazy woman cut my thigh, using fresh blood to feed the monster in its womb! I gritted my teeth and endured, when she was done, the woman put down the bowl, carried the child out."

"When no one was around, I smashed the bowl, used a piece of porcelain to cut the rope and ran away. Damn it! If I had run any slower, my little life would have been over!"

After Su Qingyu heard the man's story, she comforted him a few times and told him that there were security guards patrolling the building, and that if he wanted to escape, he could ask them for help.

The crippled man thanked him profusely and left.

Wen Xuecha watched the man's back, squeezed closer to Su Qingyu and asked: "Sister Yu, why did you let him do what he did? Why don't you hand him over to that woman in the red dress? If she has prey, she won't target us anymore."

This is called "rather die, fellow Daoist, than die, poor Daoist.

" "That man just now lied."

Su Qingyu curled her lips slightly: "He said that the woman in the red dress said there was no food or drink in this building, but the first floor is a grocery store."

"That's right."

Wen Xue Cha covered her mouth: "But why did he lie to us?"

Su Qing Yu coldly analyzed: "Because he recognized us, did you see someone who just escaped death holding a flashlight? If I'm not mistaken, he is the male owner of room 505. He made up this half-true, half-false story, for no other purpose than to tell us that the woman in the red dress is a bad person, wanting us to leave here quickly. And we won't let him get his way."

Wen Xue Cha pursed her lips, blinking: "Sister Yu is so right~"

Arriving at the fifth floor, the woman in the red dress sat barefoot on the ground, her black hair covering her face, in her arms she held a sobbing baby.

Su Qing Yu approached, squatted down, and placed the milk carton in front of her.

"You need milk, I've brought it for you."

According to the agreement, Su Qing Yu brought the milk to her, and she would reveal to Su Qing Yu the information she needed to know.

The woman in the red dress's voice was hoarse: "Thank you...can you help me lift my hair? It's covering my eyes."

Su Qingyu glanced at Wu Xin, Wu Xin lifted her black hair, Su Qingyu saw her strange eyes were bloodshot, full of despair and pain.

Her pollution had gotten worse.

She raised her head, Su Qingyu saw her eyes were swollen and bulging, her face was covered in blood.

The old baby cried out, revealing his missing yellow teeth, his diaper was covered in fresh blood, he had clearly just been fed.

"What do you want to know?"

The woman's voice was very small, almost inaudible.

Su Qingyu asked: "I want to know why the management won't let the people in this building leave?"

"There's a dangerous person mixed in this building, those bastards Sao Mai Real Estate Management Company didn't want to call the police, afraid of affecting their reputation. They used the excuse of renovating the old apartment building, blocked the exit, leaving us to live or die here."

Wen Xuecha couldn't help but interject: "Paper can't wrap fire."

The woman in the red dress laughed strangely: "If paper can't wrap fire, then those bastards just want to light a fire and burn this hellish place down."

Burn it down?"

This reminded Su Qingyu of the charred corpse on the fourth floor.

"There's no escape, we can't escape."

The woman in the red dress was resentful, her pitch-black eyes wide open with bloodshot eyes: "The managers basically don't work, such a big apartment complex only has two temporary guards. Who knows, they might have let those bastards in on purpose, if everyone here dies, there's no need to renovate, just bulldoze everything and rebuild. Those bastards climbed up the water pipes to the top floor, that stupid woman on the seventh floor didn't install security nets outside the windows. I heard they broke in from the seventh floor, killed many people, the old woman on the sixth floor was afraid of death, cooking with her son to help the bad guys."

"Did he set the fire on the fourth floor?"

The woman paused, a vague look flashing across her face: "When did the fourth floor burn?"

She had just said burn it down out of anger.

Su Qingyu: "Don't you know?"

The corridor on the fourth floor was originally filled with charred corpses.

The woman in red shook her head and muttered, "I've already said everything I know. You can go now. I have to breastfeed my child..."

Wen Xuecha stopped the woman. "Wait, are you sure there's no exit to the first floor?"

The woman in red suddenly grabbed Wen Xuecha's injured wrist and squeezed the wound tightly. Her sharp nails dug into her flesh, causing her to scream in pain.

"If you don't want to go, then stay and take care of my child."

The woman in red bent down to sniff Wen Xuecha's wound and threatened in a harsh voice. "Fresh blood is as nutritious as milk. If you nourish it well, the blood will flow continuously."

"Let me go. I'll leave right away!"

Wen Xuecha jerked her hand away. The woman in red let go, causing her to lose her balance and fall backwards. Luckily, Su Qingyu caught her in time.

The woman in red looked at them and laughed strangely. "Cough cough cough."

"Everyone here is crazy, just like the first instance."

Wen Xuecha puffed her cheeks, she pulled Su Qingyu away from the dangerous place: "Sister Yu, you're right, we can't stay here. This world will collapse sooner or later, staying here until the end is the only way to die. Since the management company has sent the construction team in, they must know the way out!"

Su Qingyu nodded, she also intended to approach from the construction team.

The two of them arrived at the fourth floor, the whole floor was filled with smoke, the air was filled with a burning smell, room 404 was burning fiercely.

The people in the room were packed like canned sardines, the fire spread, they raised their blackened hands and called for help.

Su Qingyu called the management department, the other end of the line rang a few times.

The voice on the other end was full of frustration: "Hello, what's the matter? This is the security room, can the residents confirm that something is wrong before calling!"

"There's an apartment on the fourth floor that's on fire."

We can't control this!"

The other end of the line hung up with a bang.

Su Qingyu frowned, they left the fourth floor and went down to the third floor.

The aroma of food spread throughout the floor.

The old lady on the sixth floor carried an empty basket and passed by, met them, then entered the elevator and left.

Seeing the elevator, Su Qingyu and Wen Xuecha closed their eyes and counted silently until the elevator disappeared.

When did the old lady get off?

Just now, Su Qingyu saw that there was only half a rotten onion left in the old lady's basket.

The rich merchant who had stayed in room 304 had disappeared, the door was wide open, the girl in the wheelchair was standing in front of a giant iron pot, something was "bubbling" in the pot.

A handsome man wearing a black mask stood next to the girl, chopping chili, garlic, and onions and putting them in the pot.

"Isn't this the fake security guard who tricked Li Lin into the grocery store?"

Wen Xuecha gritted her teeth: "I almost fell for his trick, and died in the grocery store! Wearing a mask and still pretending to be human, I despise you!"

"This man is the husband of the old lady knitting at the grocery store on the first floor. Look at the sweater he's wearing. It was knitted by the old lady herself."

Wen Xuecha covered her mouth: "With such taste, no wonder the half of his face under the mask is that of an old man."

In the living room, the disabled girl in the wheelchair raised her eyes full of resentment to look at Su Qingyu, her lips slightly moving as she "asked for help".

And in that iron pot, a big fat head slowly emerged.

It wasn't a pig's head, but the head of a rich merchant!

At this moment, there was a noise from the fire exit.

Su Qingyu saw the square-faced security guard coming down from the fourth floor. As he walked, he grumbled: "Every time you make me come, I didn't cause the fire! The irresponsible managers don't bother to take care of it, they push this stinking pot to a temporary employee like me, and they also forbid me from calling the police. I don't have a gun in my hand. Other than taking a look, I can't do anything!"

It was a security guard! Heaven was really helping her!

"Security guard!"

Su Qingyu enthusiastically greeted: "Come here and help, there are residents here who need your help!"

The square-faced security guard saw Su Qingyu and immediately approached.

But when he looked in the direction she pointed and saw the handsome man wearing a black mask, his expression suddenly changed, and he fearfully said to Su Qingyu: "Little girl, I can't control this matter, I advise you not to get involved. He is not a resident of this building, he is beyond my jurisdiction."

The handsome man wearing a mask saw the security guard and continued to brazenly cook the pot of soup.

"He is clearly a resident of this building, he is the old man on the first floor."

The security guard shook his head repeatedly, not wanting to help.

This action confused Su Qingyu, could it be that her initial deduction was wrong?

At this moment, the girl in the wheelchair struggled to stand up,ripped the mask off the handsome guy's face and he fell to the ground.

The handsome man lost his mask, revealing half of the old man's face, he was extremely reluctant to step out of the living room.

The security guard's attitude changed, he fiercely grabbed the old man, punched him a few times in the face: "I told you not to wander around, you're not listening! Go back to your first floor! Otherwise, I'll make your old lady close her shop forever!"

Su Qingyu suddenly had a thought: "Uncle! Is the person wearing the mask the murderer who infiltrated the building?"

The security guard nodded.

Su Qingyu suddenly understood, it was "it" that had merged the murderer with the old man from the first floor grocery store. Ordinary residents only appeared on their own floor, but the murderer wearing the mask could go to all floors.

Appearing on this floor was to provide ingredients for the murderer to cook soup.

The woman in the red dress on the fifth floor once said, the old lady on the sixth floor was afraid of death, cooking with her son to help the bad guys.

"Van Tuyet Tra, catch this old man with me, don't let him escape!"
