Hearing Lei Jijian's words, I couldn't help but wonder what the driver was thinking.
If he really had any grand plans, he probably would have made his move long ago and wouldn't have had to wait until now.
Now that he's already brought us into this white fog, I have no reason to doubt him anymore.
I must fully believe in, accept, and bear the consequences of his actions.
After all, Old Liu seems like a very reliable person!
For a time, I even felt that it was Old Liu who had come specifically to save us.
Otherwise, how could we have encountered this so many times in a row, and this is only at a shallow level?
There aren't many drivers on the shallow side to begin with, let alone in the middle of the night, there should be even fewer people.
To be honest, I feel very fortunate to have met someone like Lao Liu.
He's a very kind person, so I have even less reason to doubt him.
Otherwise, why would I have gotten into someone else's car in the first place?
I quickly conveyed my thoughts to Lei Jijian in my mind, and at this moment, Lei Jijian seemed to understand something as well.
“Master, I can believe him if you want, but I don’t want to see this happen again.”
Whether you can tolerate it or not, I definitely can't sit still anymore!
I'll definitely be the first one to go up and see what's going on!
At this point, Lei Jijian's attitude was already very firm.
If I could see him, I could almost feel that his eyebrows were almost horizontal at that moment.
Although that's what I think, right now I can only trust the driver.
However, the doubt in my mind had not dissipated at all. Was the driver's reaction just now because of the thick fog and he couldn't see clearly?
So what exactly are his glasses for? They can't be completely useless, can they?
Could it really be as Lei Jijian said, or is there some other reason?
I dared not think any further.
After that sudden deceleration, the entire car was in an awkward situation for a long time.
Not only us, but even the driver seemed to sense a strange atmosphere; something was definitely not right.
At that moment, Lao Liu's grip on the steering wheel tightened slightly, and I could feel the immense pressure he was under.
Old Liu stared intently at the thick fog ahead, his Adam's apple bobbing slightly before he finally spoke after a long while.
"To be honest, I wanted to save my life too. It wasn't that I was a coward, it was this thick fog..."
When I heard this, I was completely speechless.
He's already wearing glasses, and at our current speed, there shouldn't be any problems, right?
I repeated what I had just said to him, hoping it would give him some encouragement.
At this moment, Lao Liu slowly opened his mouth and revealed information that made me even more uneasy.
"To tell you the truth, the strangeness here is not just about this island, nor just about those villagers."
Actually, what made me a little apprehensive today was this thick fog.
This dense fog has only appeared three or four times since I started driving.
It's only happened twice already.
Damn, we've run into all of this. I feel so unlucky.
It seems like we've been blessed with all sorts of good things.
I was exchanging casual pleasantries with Master Liu when he told me that every time this fog appeared, people would die.
Moreover, their deaths were all gruesome, and none of their bodies could be recovered.
Those who ventured into the fog were mostly daring, and those who were short of money simply disappeared from the ranks of drivers.
The passengers have disappeared without a trace.
In these incidents, only one driver's car was found; the others' cars were nowhere to be found.
Holy crap!
My heart skipped a beat.
This is so outrageous, don't tell me it's like traveling through a wormhole!
I thought he was just afraid of getting into a car accident, but Lao Liu never mentioned it before!
I couldn't help but feel a little worried.
I glanced at Yiyi beside me, and she looked very anxious at that moment.
"Sir, we can't even find a car in this fog..."
Yiyi's voice trembled slightly. Old Liu nodded, took out his phone from beside him, and the screen lit up.
He reduced the car speed to a minimum and then slowly brought it to a stop.
I know he is very cautious.
It wasn't because of the cold; I could see that Lao Liu's hands were trembling little by little.
If this were on land, the driver would definitely show off his driving skills and leisurely take a look.
But once you get here, I doubt anyone will try to be brave anymore; everyone will consciously put down what they're doing.
He skillfully opened a group chat; the name of the group, as I saw from the back, was "Driver Mutual Aid Group."
The messages scrolled by incredibly fast, almost all of them were drivers talking about passengers.
I couldn't help but marvel at how even they were connected.
Old Liu scrolled up for a long time before finally finding a message marked with a red triangle.
He pulled the handbrake, turned around, and handed the phone to me.
“Look, last year on the fifth day, Old Li from the south of the city was driving a passenger this way.”
He went in and never came out. Later, some people in the group went to look for him after the fog cleared and found his car overturned in the ditch!
"When the person is gone, all that's left is an empty shell."
Upon hearing this, I involuntarily shrank back.
This is truly horrific!
I could even see the bloodstains next to the car in the picture.
The driver and his passengers must have suffered terribly when they died.
There were even tiny water droplets next to the car.
This is probably what fell on it when the fog dried up!
I glanced out the window; it was still a vast expanse of white.
Only by looking straight ahead can you see a small space illuminated by the car headlights.
Thinking about our situation again, I swallowed hard once more.
But I noticed that in this picture, besides the red bloodstains, there were also some green elements.
Since seven days have passed, the picture is a little blurry.
"Master Liu, what is this green thing?"
When I spoke, he didn't hold back at all.
"This stuff... the powder on the car window is similar to what you collected before. You should be more familiar with it than I am."
Yes, it's all too familiar.
At this point, I even began to suspect that the green color transmitted through their bodies was the same thing as the green slime and powder we stepped on.
However, based on my current guess, this thing can provide energy to people and also absorb their energy!
