For a moment, I didn't know what to say. The emotion I had been suppressing, the urge to ask a question, was suddenly unleashed by Yiyi.
This Yiyi is indeed more straightforward.
I saw a different kind of emotion in her.
At this moment, I guess Yiyi was even more anxious than I was.
After all, if this contract is real and will actually take effect, then her fate and mine will be inextricably linked!
Compared to restoring one's own energy, personal safety is definitely more important!
If you've lost your life, what use are energy replenishments or precious treasures?
I believe Yiyi understands this principle better than I do.
As soon as Yiyi finished speaking, I tugged at the hem of her clothes.
He lowered his voice and reminded her, "The driver will probably know what we're planning!"
Yiyi quickly covered her mouth with her hand, as if she had said something she shouldn't have.
As the driver heard us talking, he suddenly smiled. Looking at him from the back seat, I noticed the wrinkles around his eyes, which were mostly squeezed together.
It felt a little strange, but he quickly relaxed, and it didn't affect his enthusiasm at all.
"Is that even a question? How could you possibly be sending letters to relatives and friends from this shallow post office in the middle of the night?"
The driver pointed in the direction of the post office they had just passed.
Looking in the direction he was pointing, even though a long time had passed, we were now quite far from that post office.
However, I could still sense that the "sky" in the distance was actually a shallower sea, from which a faint white light emanated.
It was the stark white light inside the post office.
Sure enough, this place is open 24 hours a day.
You have to admit it. Whether or not anyone comes, they always have staff on duty, and they'll encounter people like that big, drunk man from earlier.
To be honest, I can't even imagine what kind of destruction that man would have caused inside the post office if he hadn't been caught by the halo.
Judging from his stride, he was definitely heading straight for the post office.
This means that there must be something in this post office that can provide him with energy, or that he can get some benefits from it.
"You sent a special package, right? The kind that's supposed to be a 'yin-yang' package?"
When I heard the driver say that, my pupils contracted sharply.
My whole body was pressed against the backrest, not because of inertia.
You know that?
Holy crap.
This driver is really something else.
To be honest, if I hadn't come here, I would never have believed that a piece-rate system like Yin-Yang Tong existed.
If everyone knew this, I estimate that everyone would come to this post office to contact their relatives in this way.
After all, when someone's relatives or friends pass away, no matter how, they wouldn't want to contact them!
Birth, aging, illness, death, natural disasters, or accidents are all unavoidable and can catch people off guard.
To be honest, if I had known about this earlier, I probably would have gone to great lengths to find connections or resources to send letters here.
After all, this is truly a path that can change many things and fulfill many long-cherished wishes!
How did the driver even know that...?
He was definitely not an ordinary rickshaw puller.
"Well……"
I'm at a loss for words.
"Hehe, don't be surprised. People who send these kinds of letters are either asking the deceased for favors or they've been caught up in these superficial rules..."
The driver's lips curled into a smile, looking quite mysterious.
"Young man, do you think it's reasonable to just leave after you've finished taking notes? Isn't that right?"
I was speechless at the driver's question.
He knew we were sending a special package; he couldn't have been secretly watching us all along, could he?
Or is it that at this time, everyone entering and leaving the post office is being watched?
I glanced at Yiyi beside me; she was giving me a helpless gesture, her face expressionless.
Seeing that neither she nor I spoke, the driver paused for a moment, as if sensing our wariness, before speaking again.
"Don't overthink it. The longer you drive, the more you'll see."
"Two young people from out of town like you, sending unusual mail in the middle of the night, are most likely...lured here by someone."
The driver deliberately paused when he said the words "led over".
It seems to have some additional implied meaning.
"Yes, you're right, brother. You've helped us a lot, so I have nothing to hide from you. We're going to a hotel!"
My tone was firm and serious.
This is a matter of life and death for us.
"Let's go. There are plenty of hotels in this city. Just give me directions, and I'll take you there as quickly as possible. Since you've already ridden in my car once, I'll give you a friendly price."
Wow, that's really thoughtful.
We only rode with the driver once, but it seemed like we had some kind of relationship.
I guess it's probably because of our connections and the valuable assets we possess.
Dew-covered branches—so many people want them.
Everyone who sees it is moved by its uniqueness or rarity.
I guess that since this driver has traveled all over the country and seen so many good things, he must know something about this plant called "Zhizi".
Although he probably couldn't guess that we were carrying the extremely precious Dew-Gathering Branch, it was probably close enough.
We set off quickly, and along the way, I gave the driver a few directions at each intersection.
While I was giving him directions, I realized that the destination was really too far away!
Based on Lan Jia's account to me, I felt that he was not wronged at all.
Walk straight down a main street, turn at one point, turn again a little while later, and then just go through a central roundabout and you'll arrive.
However, it took more than an hour to drive just to the first turn!
Holy crap.
If that's the case, wouldn't Yiyi's energy be mostly depleted?
Just as I was hesitating, the vehicle suddenly slowed down considerably.
"Master, what's going on?"
"Look ahead."
The experienced driver pointed to the windshield ahead, and I then realized that the window was covered with a layer of white fog!
No, it's not above the window, it's a whole area in front of us, all covered in white fog!
