What? ?
My eyes widened immediately.
The girl beside her was also very suspicious at this moment.
He wore an expression of complete disbelief.
"Yeah, the bearded man said, 'This thing is that green energy?'"
So, the green pipeline?
This is a bit too outrageous. Not only me and Yiyi, but Lei Jijian is also cursing in my head right now.
"What the hell is this stuff?! Who would have thought it would be that green liquid and those powders?!"
When he mentioned the word "grave," it reminded me that we were almost constantly affected by this green energy before entering the Riverside Hotel.
More or less, their bodies, especially the soles of their feet, would be covered in some green powder or slime, following them like a persistent ghost.
Although those things didn't bring us any substantial improvement or damage, my biggest impression of them was that this kind of energy was just too sticky and disgusting.
It's like human vomit.
Not only that, but the fact that he would inexplicably appear on us is already extremely strange.
It appeared before entering that post office, and also every time Old Liu got on and off his car.
I don't even know when that stuff got on me.
However, ever since we passed the riverside hotel, that is, from Zhou Pang and Boss Hao's place, we were not affected by any green energy on the way back.
The only thing I could think of was the elegant woman dressed in emerald green that we encountered on the way back!
The green hue on him is a deeper shade than the energy we usually see, but overall it shouldn't be related to that energy.
That's a bit strange.
Since what I wrote on the page is to tell us to replenish our fluids, specifically the green energy, it means that positive energy in this shallow layer has a significant weakening effect on people.
I suspect this is one of the reasons why Lao Liu could only stay in the shallows and couldn't personally take us to Lan Jia's house.
On the one hand, this old Liu might not be familiar with the roads either, and besides, it doesn't have the precision navigation system of this hovercar.
On the other hand, it's possible that because his car couldn't be rehydrated, and because his entire body was bound by that green energy, Lao Liu was naturally trapped in the shallow layer.
But now that we've already plunged so deep inside, where else can we replenish our water?
Not only does the car consume water, but even we, who have been sitting here for so long, feel parched and lack the energy we had just had.
Yiyi didn't seem to understand what was going on. She directly asked how to add water to the car and where to do it.
The bearded driver pointed to a storage compartment in the back of the hovercar, right next to us, and told us that it was specifically for refilling water in his car.
Why didn't you say so earlier!
Holy crap, so he had already arranged this all along, he just hadn't shown it to us yet.
Why have you been dawdling here for so long without moving the car forward even once?
Although I didn't want to answer, I still did as he said and opened a slot next to my foot. When I came out, I was dumbfounded again.
There's no green energy inside at all; it's just an empty shell with some green residue on the inner wall of the box.
The moment these residues are pulled apart, they all have a somewhat rotten smell.
I even think that the fishy smell I just smelled, similar to that of sea scabies mites, was largely due to that rotten smell emanating from within, mixed with the smells and atmosphere outside, which is why I perceived it.
Not only that, there used to be a pipeline here, but it was broken by someone and is now lying there in a very messy state.
I quickly raised my voice again and asked him, "Sir, this car needs a water inlet, but the inlet is broken and there's no water..."
And judging from your current condition, you probably need to drink some water.
I said this to him, but the driver seemed completely unconcerned and silently shook his head.
Then, he began repeating those same monotonous phrases as before.
When I saw this, I immediately went numb.
Hey bro, what are you trying to do?
Yiyi asked him another question, but he still didn't say anything.
Just as the two of us were about to figure out how to do it ourselves, he sat in front, pressed the gas button, paused slightly, and then tugged at his collar.
I noticed a faint scar on his neck.
His tone returned to normal, just like before.
"I don't like it, so I took it apart."
It's been demolished?
His rapid change is something I find hard to accept and adapt to.
You should at least know some ways to stay hydrated, right?
If it's like this, isn't it just waiting for the energy to run out?
At least Lao Liu, as one of the drivers, knew to strap some cables to his body.
You really don't know anything. Not only did you not inject the green energy into your body, you also dismantled the thing in one fell swoop.
I felt a mix of curiosity and admiration for him.
Because I know very well that these green pipelines and the energy they contain are a means for those at the top, those who specifically manage the lower levels, to rule over those below.
Although it's just a guess, I have a feeling that the longer this thing stays on your body, the more dependent it will become.
It was like Lao Liu was behind us. He pulled us back and took us to the Peace Hotel. In the latter half, I clearly noticed that the tubes on his body had become thicker and heavier.
Now that the beard has been removed, there is naturally less energy supply.
It was only then that I realized that this was probably why the person hadn't been able to talk to us very freely!
His language ability seems to be limited by the deep water or the environment!
The driver can only replenish some energy through the pipeline.
But now that he has dismantled this thing and the things on the car are gone, he will reduce his own energy accordingly!
...
It seems we're completely trapped here!
You idiot, not only did you not reserve any energy to replenish yourself, but you also pulled the cables off the car. Isn't that obviously going to cause you to miss your train halfway through the journey?
These aren't just the threads binding you, they're the threads binding my two lives!
