The next day, 20:35.
Li Jianguozai looked at the appearance of the courtyard carefully.
There are mottled moss on the courtyard gate, and you can even see a few healthy and hard-working little mushrooms on the door rafters. Spiders were decorated with lights on both sides of the door. The spider web must have been passed down for more than ten generations, and it has a tendency to continue to flourish.
Surprisingly, the courtyard gate is wide open.
As expected, someone was guarding the door.
Li Jianguo walked back and forth at the door twice, silently calculating the probability of being chopped into pieces if he went in.
After all, he was just an informant, so he should still call for support now.
However, there are no instant messaging tools. Mr. Bao said that the business scope of the three communication providers has not covered such a wide range. Later, they will seriously consider whether to invite a tender to let China Unicom burn a base station.
But, of course, there are communication methods.
Flying pigeons deliver messages.
Li Jianguo walked to a corner next to the alley, stared closely at the courtyard, and scrawled the location of the courtyard with a pen: "Wen'an Hutong, No. 15."
Then he took out the dove from his sleeve and tied the note on it.
Fly, homing pigeon! I'll keep an eye on where these people are going!
The homing pigeon spread its wings and flew high.
Snapped!
grumble!
"It's a hit! Oh, I'm so good! Extra food, extra food!"
Li Jianguo watched helplessly as the janitor excitedly returned to the door holding the wings of the carrier pigeon.
Feeling a little hopeless.
There are still notes tied to the pigeon's legs! Isn't this revealing? Didn’t everyone run away when they saw this?
Li Jianguo felt that he should do something.
After considering the cost-effectiveness of the action, Li Jianguo rationally thought that perhaps the best thing he should do was to turn around and run away.
Li Jianguo's mobility has never been so strong.
until……
"Hey, what are you doing? Come here!"
Li Jianguo walked up to the gatekeeper nervously.
Now that he's been called, he definitely won't be able to run away. If he comes over, he might be able to get the homing pigeon back.
Li Jianguo saw the gatekeeper leaning at the door, holding a poor carrier pigeon in one hand and carefully studying a small piece of paper with the other.
Li Jianguo's heart suddenly rose to his throat.
please!
But don’t read the words!
As expected.
"Wen'an Hutong, No. 15?" The guard looked at the words on the note and said to himself, "Isn't that where it is?"
The guard looked at the frightened Li Jianguo, straightened his back, and looked at Li Jianguo cautiously: "Did you throw it away?"
Li Jianguo did not dare to speak.
The guard looked back and forth for a long time, thinking about it for a long time, and finally got the answer.
"Sure enough, my guess was right," the guard said with a smile, "I am indeed an official of the underworld! There are postmen specially delivering letters to me!"
The guard looked at the note again smugly.
The hard work must be rewarded. Compared with the bunch of rubbish in the yard, if I can read, I am enough to stand out from the crowd. Now there is a postman delivering letters to me!
I have never received a letter in my life, and I have no idea what a letter is. It turns out that I heard others say that letters are usually delivered by pigeons or something, or that someone throws them at their doorstep. The treatment of the underworld official is indeed extraordinary. Someone comes to his doorstep and then throws them to him with pigeons!
A meal of pigeon meat for nothing!
so……
The guard glanced at Li Jianguo and smiled kindly: "It seems that you are a postman and a messenger from the underworld, right? I saw something special about you. By the way, tell me, you are like a messenger from the underworld like us. What is the most important trait? I will learn from it."
"Uh..." Li Jianguo said hopefully, "...neglect of duty?"
right!
This is it!
The guard suddenly had an enlightenment.
Or maybe I always feel that there is something different between me and the ghost I saw before, that I have neglected my duty, and...
"Are you still looking at people with your nose? Pointing out your fingers! And then saying, "I'm getting off work soon. Come back tomorrow!" "Why should I work for you if I only pay you this little money?"
Li Jianguo nodded hesitantly:
"Uh, right? Right."
The underworld's underworld system... is it so crotch-heavy?
The caretaker's career plan suddenly became clear.
Today, good things come in pairs. First, I found out that I was actually an underworld official, and then I had a postman to deliver the letter, and a dedicated carrier pigeon (for tasting), and then a professional senior suddenly showed up to try his luck.
Today is my lucky day!
So, what I'm going to do now...
The guard's eyes sparkled.
The underworld’s errands begin with dereliction of duty!
The guard made up his mind that since he chose this profession, he must do it to perfection!
You must try your best to neglect your duties! Be the strongest who neglects his duties!
Li Jianguo watched helplessly as the dedicated man a few seconds ago suddenly collapsed leaning against the door frame, his eyes full of confusion and melancholy. Regardless of his positioning as a professional, he is now in full swing.
The guard glanced at Li Jianguo casually: "According to Your Majesty, no, Mr. Cui has told me that if you see someone coming, no matter who it is, you must report it, but I am on a job now. You can't handle such a small thing." Just go talk to Mr. Cui yourself, just say...just say that I found a suspicious person like you hanging around the door."
The guard vaguely remembered that there seemed to be a rule that said people were not allowed to make two trips.
It's just right, he can just run in directly.
I'm going to continue to derelict my duty to the best of my ability.
Li Jianguo glanced at the guard.
If everyone was like this, I don't think it would be so scary.
Also, all the horrors so far have been caused by people like Minggu and ghosts. This is just a command post, and there must be no ruthless characters in it.
It’s impossible to leave anyway.
My heart skipped a beat.
Even if it’s the dragon’s pond and the tiger’s den, I, Li Jianguo, will try my best!
There are skills in everything, even if it is to break into the dragon's pond and tiger's den, there are necessary routines and methods.
For example, you can't just step on the tiger's tail, and you can't stick your head into the tiger's throat with a smile to say hello. The most important thing is to avoid taboo words such as "Wu Song" and "Sliding Shovel".
It's the same here, the first thing is to sneak in quietly and don't alert anyone.
After all, according to simple common sense, it is impossible for everyone to be as reasonable as this guard.
…
The next day, 20:46.
In the courtyard, people were coming and going. There were quite a few people, probably six or seven.
However, there is not no gap between them, there is a blind spot in the field of vision!
Li Jianguo's eyes were sharp and he saw a hidden passage leading into the courtyard at a glance.
First turn left, jump into the garden by the wall, crawl through the grass in the garden, then duck to avoid the two people eating melon seeds in the front hall, duck to the other corner, and go around a corner close to the grass in the corner , you can reach the backyard door.
Li Jianguo thought this way, and crept in along the wall. While looking around cautiously, he bumped into a big fat man.
The big fat man was holding a big clay pot in his hand.
The big clay pot was smashed to the ground with peace of mind, breaking into pieces and making a loud noise, without caring about the gazes of other people in the courtyard.
For a moment, everyone in the courtyard stared at Li Jianguo.
Li Jianguo looked at the broken clay pot with his mouth wide open, and then looked up at the people in the courtyard.
It's over.
Under the gaze of everyone, Li Jianguo felt that the color on his body was slowly and cruelly drained away bit by bit, and he was no different from the gray-white portrait.
No...wait.
still have a chance.
What if the other party... doesn't know me?
That's right, it's impossible for everyone to know themselves. As long as they don't know themselves, then...
At this moment, a whisper reached Li Jianguo's ears.
"Is that... Li Jianguo? The Li Jianguo on the Soul Killing Order?"
It was the two people at the door of the front hall. The one who spoke looked younger. Li Jianguo had never felt such blazing eyes.
Li Jianguo smiled bitterly.
Ah, very good.
Now I am really desperate.
Li Jianguo heard the next sound again.
"No, no. Don't talk nonsense."
"but……"
The tone of the voice was obviously higher: "Shut up and mind yourself!"
Everyone just glanced at it and went about their business.
The big fat man rolled his eyes at Li Jianguo and said angrily: "Are you new here? You're so careless! Be careful!"
This is...I didn't recognize it! ?
Li Jianguo said quickly: "I'm sorry! I'll do it next time!"
After that, Li Jianguo hurriedly ran a few steps and ducked into the backyard in full view of everyone.
After entering the backyard, Li Jianguo breathed a sigh of relief.
Scared me.
After seeing Li Jianguo enter the backyard, other people in the courtyard let out a sigh of relief.
Scared me.
The elderly man at the door explained to the other party seriously:
"In this case, how can you say that the other party is Li Jianguo?"
"But I..."
"Do you know how many people died in Li Jianguo's soul-killing order? We civilians can handle people they can't handle? He has already entered the courtyard, and he must have found a way to deal with the guards. Do you think we More capable than guarding?"
The young man looked at the door and was silent for a while.
"But I think there's nothing wrong with the guard?"
The older man also looked at the guard at the door, took a long breath, and said with lingering fear:
"Young man, don't just look at the surface. You see, you were so conscientious in guarding before, but now you only know... well, squatting on the ground and plucking pigeon feathers. What a blow this must give him... Besides, our salary does not include it." "Capture the vicious Li Jianguo in the courtyard", there are people in the backyard who specialize in handling this."
The older man patted the young man on the shoulder in a friendly manner:
"If the people in the backyard can't solve it, then our obstruction is in vain; if the people in the backyard can solve it, we have not made a mistake. Before doing anything, use your brain. Not to mention getting you promoted and rich, at least it will make you "die" in the underworld. The longer it takes, the more you learn.”
The next day, 20:50.
Li Jianguo entered the backyard smoothly, and there was almost no one in the backyard.
Only one room was guarded by someone outside.
Presumably Po Meng is there, and with luck, Po Meng may be rescued without disturbing Cui Ling.
So far, Li Jianguo's ego has been somewhat inflated.
Maybe today is your lucky day? It all came so naturally.
The task is about to be completed now.
Li Jianguo had successfully passed so many levels just now, and this last person should be no problem either.
Li Jianguo walked slowly towards the last room.
The man at the door also saw the calm and confident Li Jianguo.
He turned around, looked in the direction of Li Jianguo, and stretched out his hand.
A stone shot out and hit Li Jianguo's face.
Li Jianguo was caught off guard and stumbled back in fright. He barely managed to avoid the deadly stones. He looked at the other party with a pale face and asked, "What are you doing?"
The other party turned his head slightly and slowly approached Li Jianguo.
Only then did Li Jianguo notice that the other party was not a human being at all.
He is a stone man. The position of his head is a large piece of gray-brown granite, with countless small words densely carved on it. Looking at the font, it seems to be in regular script GB2312.
The other party stretched out his hand again and aimed at Li Jianguo's eyebrows:
"Kill Li Jianguo, isn't it obvious? This time, we are in control!"
