The driver glanced at us, his eyes showing a hint of impatience.
This made me a little angry.
"Don't worry, there will be energy interference when we get to this place."
"It's not my fault I can't pick up the speed; I'm not kidding you."
Is this really not your fault?
I was furious when I heard him say those words.
If we hadn't woken you up with the lightning sword, or if we hadn't already prepared to get off the bus, this guy would probably still be fast asleep in his so-called flight mode.
How could they possibly get up so quickly and tell us something?
It's even less likely that he'd be here now, all energetic, explaining things to us.
He wasn't bound by any contract, so he wouldn't experience this excruciating chest pain or the burning sensation in his lower body. Although the pain came in waves, it was still excruciatingly painful.
Thinking about this, I'm at a loss for words.
Immediately afterwards, I felt a slight pain in my chest. Although it wasn't as severe as before, it still gave me a very nagging feeling.
It's like a knife slowly sliding across your heart, yet it doesn't quite feel like it's going in.
Why didn't you do this sooner?
I seized on his words.
Yiyi also gave me a very admiring look from the side.
"You should have told us about your airplane mode from the beginning, but you couldn't have kept it on before you got in the car, could you?"
After I finished speaking, I stared intently at the driver, whose beard twitched slightly, and he remained silent.
Even if such a person exists, with his thick beard, I don't think he would act like a robot, remaining silent the whole way.
In that case, he would never have been able to complete the initial steps of getting into the car and starting it.
Surely a sharing model can't encompass his entire workflow, right? If it did, he wouldn't need to put in any effort at all during his regular work.
So I estimate that he still needs to inject some of his own spirit into this flight mode, it's just an auxiliary function for him.
It was only when I thought about this that I suddenly realized why he was able to remove those green pipes and avoid being oppressed and corrupted by the superficial managers.
Although that thing can boost one's energy, it can also be harmful. Since he removed it, the overall situation will be restricted, but there are also some conveniences.
When I asked him, he indeed remained silent.
I know very well that he had his own independent will before getting on the bus, otherwise he would never have been able to do that.
"Um……"
He hesitated for a moment, without giving a direct answer or denying it.
"Since you have energy interfering with us, why are you asking me if the road is right? Why is the car so slow? You're either pretending to be mute, or you're just saying random words. Do you think that's sincerity?"
Or rather, now that we've reached this critical juncture, if you still make us wait, how can we trust you?
These words seemed to have hit a nerve, and the bearded man's expression froze instantly.
Indeed, Lei Zijian's lightning strike just now didn't cause this guy any change in aura or psychological fluctuation.
At the very least, this guy must be quite cunning.
But even as I get to this point, the bearded man's expression does change slightly.
He didn't argue further, but continued driving at a leisurely pace.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Yiyi added loudly.
"Yes, even if we go down now, we'll be absolutely safe. We've arrived, right..."
Her words carried a hint of probing. If the driver truly knew something, his expression would definitely change slightly after she said that.
Yiyi is best at capturing this kind of emotion.
From the very beginning, when we were in the bedroom of that manor, he was constantly trying to figure out what I was thinking.
Now, Yiyi is using this method on this driver.
Seeing that the guy didn't speak and his expression remained as strong as ever, the girl continued.
"Even if we really encounter danger, we can hold out for a while, right?"
Indeed, the driver didn't show any guilty expression; instead, a more panicked look crept onto his face.
He remained silent, but I could sense that he was indeed aware of what the girl had just said.
I touched the wristband on my hand, and it seemed to be slowly regaining its energy.
It could also be due to the influence of that sea marrow, or perhaps this thing itself can slowly recover on its own. I don't know the specific reason.
However, I could feel the energy in my wristband gradually recovering, and my wrist was getting warmer and warmer.
Moreover, this feeling is not like the burning sensation on my legs. It is quite comfortable, even though it is warm on my hands. It also has a stimulating effect on my blood, making me feel like the blood in my body is slowly flowing, which is very peaceful.
It was at this moment that the driver finally blinked slightly, completely at a loss for words.
“I know you have tricks up your sleeves.”
He could only manage to utter these few words.
Although it wasn't any particularly important information, it did surprise me.
After all, the only way we can show our abilities is through the Thunder Strike Sword. And in all this time, only the Thunder Strike Sword has shown a little bit of the electric light on our bodies.
Neither the girl nor I had ever made a move.
The lightning sword started echoing in my mind.
"Master, I think you don't need to worry about it at all. This guy definitely can't take us there. Let's go!"
Or perhaps I think this guy is trying to trigger the Abyss within both of you so he can gain some benefit from it!
While the idea of using lightning strikes might seem a bit extreme, it does have some merit overall.
This guy actually knows the way there, partly because of this navigation.
Another reason is that he might have actually been to Lan Jia's place, which is why Lao Liu specifically sent him there.
But if that's the case, then wouldn't Lao Liu be trying to harm me? This path probably won't work either.
The bearded man seemed not to hear what we were saying, still firmly gripping the steering wheel, but at that moment I noticed that his fingernails were turning white.
This guy is definitely plotting something.
Their blocking us like this is definitely not simply because they're afraid we'll encounter any danger.
It is more likely that there is another intention.
