Chapter 69: The Line of Life and Death (Part 1) Explosion

The sun shone on the ground, slowly fading away the cold and darkness brought by the night. Xiao Lan, who was sitting on the sofa, had almost no sleep all night, his eyes were staring blankly at the door of the rest room without moving, while Chen Yang, who was almost crying, curled up on her legs, closed her red and swollen eyes and fell asleep in a drowsy manner. His delicate body would twitch once or twice from time to time, and even in his dream, he still shouted Liu Tianliang's name!

"Chairman, come and have something to eat..."

Yan Ruyu slowly pushed the door and carried a large plastic bag in her hand, but there seemed to be very few spoils inside, just a few bottles of water and a few bags of biscuits. Her face was also covered with unconcealed fatigue, her face was sallow and her eyes were swollen. Seeing that Xiao Lan was still losing her soul, she didn't move, she shook her head and walked over, put the plastic bag on the coffee table in front of her, and said softly: "There are not many things that can be found on this layer. You should eat a little bit. Even if Liu Tianliang comes out, it will take physical strength!"

"Can he come out..."

Xiao Lan raised his head and looked at Yan Ruyu with a wooden face, but Yan Ruyu squatted in front of her and picked up a bottle of water and opened it. He looked up and poured a large mouthful of water in. Then he was silent for a long time before saying, "He has been in there for six or seven hours. If the corpse turns into a transformation, there should be movement, but now there is no sound inside, and he doesn't come out. Oh, who knows what exactly happened!"

"No! I'm going to see him..."

Xiao Lan seemed to be provoked by some nerves. She suddenly helped Chen Yang up on her legs, stood up with an urgent face and walked towards the door, but Yan Ruyu jumped up and pulled him, frowned and said, "Xiao Lan! Don't be so impulsive, okay? Liu Tianliang may be in the process of corpse transformation. If you rush in so rashly, you may have lost your life!"

"I don't care, so what if I lose my life? He can ignore his life for us, and I can also save his life for him..."

Xiao Lan wanted to continue rushing in without saying anything, but Yan Ruyu walked around her and blocked the door completely, saying loudly: "Xiao Lan! Be calm down and show your past courage and patience? You are a mature woman, not an ignorant little girl. Don't regard the momentary impulse as meeting too late!"

"What do you mean?"

Xiao Lan stopped and looked at Yan Ruyu with eyebrows. Yan Ruyu put down his big arms and sighed, looking at her very seriously and said, "Xiao Lan! Look at what you look like now? You feel like you are trying hard for love and friendship, but in our eyes you are like a little girl who is blinded by love, completely losing her mind and losing her inch. I hope you can calm down first and ask yourself, as a married person, is it a momentary impulse to Liu Tianliang or true love? The difference between the two is really big!"

"No matter whether I love or impulse for Liu Tianliang, my life was saved by Liu Tianliang more than once. Since I owe him, I will give it back to him with all my life. You can get out of here..."

Xiao Lan stared at Yan Ruyu with red eyes and pushed her away from the door desperately, but Liu Tianliang had already locked the door completely before entering. Even if Xiao Lan turned red, he could not untie the door. Yan Ruyu stepped forward again and grabbed her arm and said anxiously: "Can't you wait a little longer? My life was also saved by Liu Tianliang. If he didn't come out before noon, I'll smash the door with you. Can you listen to me once?"

"Sister! Don't be impulsive. If Liu Tianliang's corpse changes, we will definitely not be able to deal with him..."

Ding Zichen, who had just woken up, also crawled up with a pale face, looking at the door in the rest room in fear, but Xiao Lan did not give up and smashed it hard a few times, but she still didn't hear any movement from inside. She had to nod in dismay, turn around and walk back to the sofa and sit down, hugging Chen Yang tightly with the same heartbroken!

...

Xiao Lan held a dry biscuit in her hand and slowly raised her head to look out the window. The noon sun had already shone into the room. Although it felt a warm and comfortable feeling when it was sunburned on her body, Liu Tianliang, who was uncertain about life and death, was always the lingering shadow in their hearts. She looked at the closed door again. Seeing that it was still quiet inside, she turned her head and asked softly: "How long can our food last?"

"I don't know, it's only two or three days at most..."

Yan Ruyu, who was sitting on the chair, shook her head with a wry smile, looked at the small pile of biscuits, peanuts and mineral water in front of her, and said, "The food is okay. Even if you don't eat it for a week, you will not starve to death, but water is our biggest problem now. We dare not drink the water flowing from the pipes, and we dare not touch the water in the water bottle. When we drink all these bottles of mineral water, we will be thirsty in a few days!"

"Then can we go down to find water and food like before? Go down the elevator and look for it..."

Ding Zichen hurriedly raised his head from the side and looked at Yan Ruyu and Xiao Lan with a sneer. However, Yan Ruyu sneered and said, "You can go down with courage. Since you promised Liu Tianliang to be a man, you should stand up and set a good example for our women!"

"I..."

Ding Zichen immediately looked at Yan Ruyu in silence, his tangled little face was as ridiculous as constipation, while Xiao Lan waved his hand and sighed: "The situation below is not as simple as you imagined. Too many potential dangers may kill us at any time. If we don't have the guidance of a meticulous person like Tianlian, it would be like a death to go down by ourselves!"

"What if we don't have the rescue yet after we finish our food, we won't have the rescue yet?" Liu Liping also stood up nervously, looking at the few people with horror and blank eyes. Xiao Lan seemed to have no strength to cheer them up, shook her head and said, "We are facing many difficulties now. Food and water are only one aspect. Even if the rescue team really arrives, we will be trapped on the 28th floor and we will not be able to let the rescue team discover us!"

"Then...will we be dead?"

Liu Liping covered her little mouth and her eyes turned red, and the sobs filled with despair even heaviered the haze in people's hearts. For a moment, none of them spoke again, and they all sat in the same place without moving!

"I suddenly thought of a sentence I saw in the book..."

After a while, Yan Ruyu suddenly broke the gloomy atmosphere and looked at the ceiling and smiled bitterly: "Human qualities can be expressed in one word, hypocrisy! People always praise those who say beautiful words but are actually wrong, and laugh at those who say ugly words but are actually right! Look at us now, they all tear off the masks of hypocrisy, showing their cowardice, incompetence, timidity and selfishness without reservation. On the contrary, Liu Tianliang, whom I hate the most, has not changed at all. It turns out that his hypocrisy is not hypocrisy, but he lives more real than us!"

"To put it bluntly, you are just a battle of will. Liu Tianliang seems to be rough, but in fact he exudes a sense of arrogance from his bones. When he meets someone more proud than him, he will naturally not accept it!"

Xiao Lan sighed lightly and shook his head helplessly. Yan Ruyu stood up and looked at her, and said with a numb expression: "No pride is like no dignity. What's the point of living in this world? If someone wants to take away my dignity, I will definitely take his life!"

"You're too full, are you?"

Ding Zichen looked at her with disdain and said contemptuously: "Didn't you just want to please Liu Tianliang before? I didn't see you dare to kill him. Your dignity is just that you think you are self-righteous. When you are so hungry that you are dizzy, you can see if you can do anything without dignity!"

"Hmph~ At least Liu Tianliang has that strength. If he hadn't targeted me deliberately, I would have been happy to make a bed and quilt for him. Don't be sarcastic here. I, Yan Ruyu, put my words here today. If you Ding Zichen can stand up like a man, I will kowtow to you immediately and admit your mistakes. I will be a slave and a servant in the future!"

Yan Ruyu raised her chin high and looked at Ding Zichen opposite with a proud face. Ding Zichen's handsome little face immediately turned purple and red, and she gritted her teeth but couldn't speak. She could only stare at her fiercely with her eyes. But just when the tit-for-tat atmosphere was about to condense to freezing point, the door that had been silent suddenly made a loud "bang", which scared Liu Liping so much that she "screamed" a ghost cry and jumped up from the chair, turned around and shouted in panic: "He...he...he's corpse has changed..."

"God...being conscience..."

Xiao Lan stood up from the sofa with nervous expressions. She walked over hesitantly at the closed door. But as soon as she arrived in front of the door, there was another muffled sound. It was obvious that someone inside was smashing the door with his hands. Xiao Lan subconsciously stopped, his eyes were anxious and scared, and Ding Zichen behind her also said in great tremor: "Sister! Let's quickly...get out of here quickly, Liu Tianliang's corpse has changed 100%!"

"Conscience! Are you okay..."

Xiao Lan ignored Ding Zichen's warning, bit his red lips and walked to the door with Chen Yang who ran up, but the room quietly became strangely quiet. No matter how Xiao Lan asked, there was no sound inside. Xiao Lan looked at Chen Yang suspiciously, and then he stretched out his hand and knocked on the door lightly!

"Click~"

The door lock suddenly turned slightly, making a slight sound of the lock bounce, but it suddenly changed everyone's faces. Even Xiao Lan and Chen Yang quickly retreated in panic, looking at the slowly turning door handle in horror!
