If he were really to be cut down by the lightning sword, I think he would never do that.
Or rather, at this point, Lei Jijian was just engaging in empty talk.
I looked at the driver and finally couldn't help but ask him about the car's speed.
"You mean this... we're almost there."
ah?
Could it really be...?
If we're really almost there? Either the driver or Fatty Zhou, one of them must be lying to me.
I think it's highly likely that the driver wasn't telling the truth. After all, Fatty Zhou and we've been through thick and thin together, but we haven't known this driver for very long.
If he chooses to lie to us, I think that would be more reasonable.
But when I continued to give him that questioning look, the driver didn't even turn his head, as if he sensed my suspicion.
Then, the driver spoke silently, his lips rubbing slightly, and I could hear the heaviness in his voice.
"This car starts very fast, but getting it to stop immediately is not an easy task..."
After the driver finished speaking, he pressed another blue button on the steering wheel, and the car's speed gradually decreased again.
I could notice that the scenery around us wasn't as joyful as it had been just now, and as we were slowly entering the deep sea, the currents around us were becoming increasingly turbulent.
The water flow that had just been stirred up by the hovercar slowed down considerably at this moment.
It was at this moment that I asked Lei Jijian a question in my mind: if he were to drive this car, could he really stop it?
"Didn't you just volunteer to replace the driver...?"
"Holy crap!"
I really can't take it anymore...
Master, please stop laughing at me. I was just watching this guy because he looked like he was about to die...
"If he really dies, I'll definitely rush to his aid without hesitation, you can rest assured about that!"
Lei Jijian's voice carried a hint of mischief, and I knew very well that if things really came to that point, he would definitely not hold back.
As the car slowed down, my heart gradually tightened. Every time I opened the window, I could smell that faint scabies mites.
There probably won't be another one this time, right?
I remember clearly that we smelled a strange, rotten odor at Blue Armor's place before, but it wasn't very noticeable.
Moreover, since we had just escaped from the curse of the sea town, I didn't pay much attention to the smell around me.
Having escaped from a stinky place, Lan Jia's place was already considered quite pleasant.
But now I don't think so anymore.
After all, what we need to do now is to restore the Dew-Gathering Branch from him.
In situations like these, security becomes paramount.
If we make even the slightest mistake, this guy could succeed or outmaneuver us.
When I first met Lan Jia, I thought he was really the kind of helpful and charitable person he claimed to be. But now it seems that he was just scheming for his own benefit.
I didn't continue thinking about it, but just exchanged a few more words with Lei Jijian. The girl was beside me, her hands tightly tucked into her pockets.
I noticed that her slender fingers were gently rubbing the dew-covered branches inside.
He definitely takes this matter very seriously, otherwise he wouldn't have risked his life to come here with me for so long.
To be honest, as a young girl who is only one side away from the manor, I think she definitely has a way to escape from there from the lower level.
The reason he never mentioned it to me, and never said he wanted to leave directly from there, was because of the contract we had made.
Another point is that the girl has always had a shortcut mentality, or rather, she really wants to activate the energy inside the dew-covered branch.
As I pondered this, I felt that the girl's behavior was actually quite normal.
However, from the very beginning, when we entered this Dragon Palace, the girl wanted me to take her to the Underground Celestial Palace.
But now, instead of getting anything from there, we've stumbled upon the Dewdrop Branch by accident, and we've traveled all over the country for so long to save it.
Although I didn't achieve my goal, I feel that I've already accomplished half of my objective of restoring my youthful energy.
The guilt I felt was also somewhat lessened.
After another five minutes or so, I felt that it was finally enough.
Although the driver initially told me it was only a few kilometers, it now seems like it must have been more than ten kilometers.
I didn't ask too many questions. After all, when I first took Lao Liu's car to find Fatty Zhou, we should have taken a longer, more circuitous route, but because of time constraints, Lao Liu took the straight road, which was the foggy one.
That's why I wasted a lot of time and was terrified, but now I'm just trying not to make that mistake again.
Regardless of the exact distance traveled, I leave the interpretation to the driver. Since he was entrusted by Lao Liu to take us to Lan Jia's house, the navigation must be genuine.
And he will definitely follow this navigation.
I won't dwell on the twists and turns in the middle.
It might not be of any use in the end, and could even backfire, which would be quite unsightly.
Finally, the hovercar came to a steady stop on a gravel beach!
I breathed a sigh of relief, but the tension inside me was still there.
I glanced at the girl next to me; her face was already flushed, and I knew she was a little nervous.
As for Lei Jijian, he had already floated in mid-air, eager to try. To be honest, Lei Jijian had definitely recovered a lot of energy along the way.
Looking at the driver in front, I could see that his double eyelids were already showing signs of exhaustion, and they were turning outwards.
However, thanks to the sea marrow I used to help him recover, he has already recovered quite well at this moment.
Although my eyes still look a little tired, they no longer have that feeling of being about to fall out.
"arrive.
It's just ahead.
The driver pointed ahead but didn't say anything more.
