I was shocked. This can't be!
If the girl's guess is correct, then what fell out of the fat man's body was definitely a rotting worm, the kind that feeds on dead people's corpses.
The fat man in front of them wasn't human at all, but rather an image made up of these rotting worms.
However, in the girl's eyes, this image was of Fatty Zhou.
In my opinion, he was just a terrifying monster.
The problem is, if he wants to attack us, wouldn't that be just like the girl said, treating us both as dead?
I'm still alive and well.
I quickly looked up at Lei Jijian, who looked as if he were facing a formidable enemy and said to me in a panic.
"Master, don't look at me!"
I'm alive and well now, and there's no way I'd die!
I couldn't help but chuckle when I heard Lei Jijian say that.
"I'm not saying you're dead, but look, I'm definitely alive right now, aren't I? There's no sign of me being dead, is there?"
As soon as I finished speaking, it was like a thunderclap in my head.
Okay, if we follow this line of thought, if my pupils turn black, does that mean I'm dead...?
Holy crap...
At that moment, I felt like my mind was going to freeze.
Seriously? This is way too outrageous!
I glanced at the girl, and her eyes also held an indescribable helplessness.
"Brother, please calm down. We haven't experienced anything yet."
If we look back on our itinerary, all we did was pick up some sea cucumber at the riverside hotel.
I rode in Lao Liu's car twice, and once in a hovercar.
That's all...
The girl's tone was also very serious, and I carefully considered what she had just said.
Yeah, it seems like we haven't been anywhere.
In fact, we hardly saw any other people along the way.
I think Lao Liu would never harm us.
Moreover, the driver Lao Liu hired, the one with the bushy beard, would never 100% harm us.
He must have been someone Lao Liu hired; he couldn't possibly pose any threat to us!
Thinking about it this way, the scope of suspicion becomes even smaller...
I experienced a similar fake death when Bai Su was chasing me before.
At that time, both Luo Tianhe and I developed lividity. If the cause couldn't be determined, we would die too.
At that time, our bodies were indeed alive, but we were slowly showing signs of impending death.
But right now, there are indeed no signs of mutation in us.
And I didn't offend anyone along the way.
Could it be... the previous Boss Zhou, or Boss He?
This thought suddenly occurred to me, and my mind went blank like a thunderbolt.
Suddenly it dawned on me: wasn't that Fatty Zhou from before the contract host that Blue Armor found for us?
In other words, the phrase "the living perish, the dead live" written in the contract refers to Fatty Zhou, doesn't it?
But the post office couldn't possibly lie to us. They made it very clear: as long as we find Fatty Zhou, everything will be resolved without any further issues.
Now it seems that we did indeed meet Fatty Zhou as expected, and nothing else happened!
You can't exactly say that the girl and I worked so hard to find the sea marrow, and almost lost our lives in that thick fog.
Now you're telling us that we haven't even completed the first step of making a treaty?
If that's the case, then the people who made this treaty are utterly despicable.
Besides Blue Armor, only he could possibly create something like this!
If you think along these lines, then everything makes sense.
I thought about it carefully again. If we hadn't completed the first step of making the agreement, we might already be two dead souls.
That's why when we returned, we didn't even see a trace of Blue Armor in the Shenluopan House.
Not only that, so many other outrageous things happened in the entire Shenluopan House.
We even saw white flowers on that hovercar...
Wait a minute, there's still a question.
Why can we see Lao Liu?
Liu Guopeng should at least be an ordinary person...
I told the girl my thoughts in detail. When she first heard them, she was also shocked.
After thinking about it carefully, she answered my question.
"Brother, this is very simple, have you forgotten?"
When Lao Liu picked us up, he made it very clear that he wouldn't just pick up passengers from the living, but also some special individuals!
Holy crap, I think I've suddenly figured it out.
After reflecting on it carefully, I realized it was true.
We met with Lao Liu close to midnight, but when we met him for the second time, he told us that two days had passed and asked us what we had experienced at the Riverside Hotel.
Based on my physical perception, we didn't experience that much time at all; it was just past midnight.
But in Lao Liu's eyes, two whole days had already passed!
It all seems to make sense now!
As for that bearded driver, what if Lao Liu discovers we're "dead" but doesn't expose us?
The driver he found for us would naturally be able to see "dead people" too!
When we arrived at the Sunken Compass House, Blue Armor might still be there, but we simply couldn't see him at all!
Holy crap...
My brain is about to short-circuit.
At the same time, his face also betrayed his weakness.
No way, I've become a dead person now?
My life is definitely still in someone's hands.
Since Fatty Zhou was unaware of this, it can only mean that it's still in Blue Armor's hands, without any change.
As I pondered this, only one thought came to mind.
Find the blue armor.
Only by finding him can we find out what really happened...
The next second, I slowly spoke to the girl: "Whether we are alive or dead now, at least there is no such thing as impermanence to take our lives."
"Let's kill this fat guy first, otherwise I reckon he'll actually come out and kill us both!"
I spoke softly, and the girl nodded heavily.
I understand now, this fat guy is our nemesis!
Even if he doesn't come out and attack us this time, I will definitely not let him go.
After thinking about it carefully again, I realized that we couldn't keep putting up with this situation forever!
I took a closer look at the fat man.
Even the strongest person must have weaknesses.
Just like that ancient person we just talked about, we did manage to defeat him through strategy. If we had tried to fight him head-on, we probably wouldn't have been able to kill him no matter how hard we tried.
There's nothing you can do about its hardness.
And this guy now...
"There are bugs, huh? I'll pull them out one by one for you, and see how you manage then!"
"If you can come up with any other tricks by then, then you'll be considered amazing!"
