Everyone has awakened, but I am the only mortal!

This time, Lao Zhou didn't follow. He just lay there, propping his head up with one hand, turning to the side, watching Su Bai walk up to Luo Zheng and whisper a few words to him. Luo Zheng's expression changed.

The two didn't say much. In the end, Luo Zheng nodded to Su Bai, turned around and strode away, heading in the direction of He Chuan and his group, while Su Bai walked back.

After Su Bai sat down, Old Zhou said, "So you've been practicing with those guys?"

Su Bai said, "We're trapped here now, and we can't find a better way out, so we're sharing our information to see if we can find a way out."

Old Zhou lay back down on the ground, gazing at the sky: "Old Bai, what exactly is this superpower all about? And that otherworldly realm, how did it suddenly appear?"

Su Bai also lay down; he had tossed and turned for half the night and hadn't slept well.

He gazed at the clear sky: "Didn't I just say that there is a fourth dimension? Perhaps the other world is a fourth dimension that we are not familiar with."

Old Zhou laughed: "Although I don't understand three-dimensional space or four-dimensional space, the otherworld we're going to is definitely not four-dimensional space."

Su Bai was just saying it casually to get rid of Lao Zhou, but he never expected that Lao Zhou would see through it.

After finishing his sentence, Lao Zhou laughed and said, "Alright, I know you're tired. Get some sleep. Who knows what kind of trouble you'll cause tonight?"

Meanwhile, after Luo Zheng passed on the information he received from Su Bai to He Chuan, He Chuan simply said he understood and did not make any further comments.

Seeing his appearance, Luo Zheng didn't say anything more and returned to Zheng Ge and the others.

It slowly got dark.

During the day, Su Bai and Lao Zhou took a nap, and when the sun set, they were both refreshed.

While the others sat there resting during the day, they had no desire to sleep.

The two woke up and saw that the others all looked exhausted.

Old Zhou chuckled and whispered to Su Bai, "Look at these people, they all think they're smart. They just sit there like idiots during the day and don't even take a nap. They'll have a long night to stay up."

Su Bai saw that Lao Zhou looked like a child stealing candy, so he didn't say anything.

Luo Zheng arrived at this time and heard what Lao Zhou said. However, he had already met Lao Zhou before, and Luo Zheng was used to Lao Zhou's talkative nature.

"Su Bai, I've already spoken to He Chuan about what happened during the day, but he didn't say anything. What do you think we should do?"

Su Bai said, "Let's observe again tonight."

As he spoke, his gaze was directed at Chen Hua.

Luo Zheng understood: "Okay, then we'll observe tonight as you previously suggested."

After Luo Zheng left, Old Zhou said to Su Bai, "You said that monster was Chen Hua? Is the one who kept calling 'Tongtong' also Chen Hua?"

Su Bai asked, "Do you know about a wild beast in the Classic of Mountains and Seas?"

"What kind of wild beast?"

Su Bai chuckled softly, "It's called 'Xiongxiong,' and its call sounds like it's calling 'Tongtong.'"

The smile on Old Zhou's face disappeared.

Seeing him cautiously looking around, Su Bai smiled and said, "Don't worry, the yuyu doesn't harm people; on the contrary, it's an auspicious wild animal."

Old Zhou said, "Old Bai, didn't you already guess that?"

Su Bai nodded!

Old Zhou continued, "If you say that the wild beast that cries 'Tongtong' doesn't harm people and is even an auspicious beast, then the one fighting with He Chuan isn't that 'Zhao Zhao' beast. If we continue this line of reasoning, does that mean the beast inside Chen Hua's body isn't that 'Zhao Zhao' beast either?"

Su Bai shook her head: "That's not certain yet."

But deep down, she was asking herself, if the beast inside Chen Hua's body was a monstrous creature, then why would it hide inside Chen Hua's body? Or was it that the beast from another world used a human body to escape to the outside world? And what would be its purpose in escaping?

He recalled that after he came out, someone whispered in his ear, "Did you get anything?" Could it be that they were looking for that thing?

Su Bai squinted, and Old Zhou knew he was thinking, so he didn't disturb him.

Night fell quickly, and this time Luo Zheng took the initiative to call a few people to sit together.

After they sat down together, he added, "Everyone be on high alert tonight; nobody is allowed to sleep."

Previously, it was suspected that if the monster inside Chen Hua's body escaped, Chen Hua would be as if he were dead.

If Chen Hua is kept awake, then if another monster comes out in the middle of the night, Su Bai's guess can be ruled out.

Everyone understood Luo Zheng's meaning: no one is allowed to sleep tonight.

Especially when he looked at Chen Hua, he said, "Chen Hua, you're not going to sleep, are you?"

Chen Hua snorted coldly: "With so many people here, why are you only asking me?"

He said in a low voice, "Everyone is cooperating, but I'm worried you won't."

Chen Hua said calmly, "Don't worry, if everyone else is cooperating, I'll cooperate too."

Seeing that Chen Hua had already agreed, Luo Zheng did not make things difficult for him any further.

Before long, He Chuan arrived with several of his men.

After He Chuan came over, he said to Luo Zheng, "Do you still have some food here? Could you share some with us? I'll pay him back when we get back."

Luo Zheng frowned. It was the apocalypse, and getting food was not easy. How could Su Bai and the others possibly give away their food to complete strangers, especially with He Chuan's domineering attitude?

In that case, they'll have to share it.

Previously, Luo Zheng had also brought out a lot of food from that nearly bankrupt supermarket in the basement.

He Chuan's tone suggests that no one would be willing to say such things in front of others.

Ultimately, it's still about hoping he'll produce it.

Although Luo Zheng was unwilling, he did not want He Chuan to hold a grudge over this matter.

Just then, He Chuan said again, "I can share some of it, and I will pay it back double when it's time to pay it back."

Old Zhou said, "What if you don't live to see the end?"

As soon as Lao Zhou finished speaking, the atmosphere around them noticeably subsided.

Then Su Bai felt a chill coming from above. Before he could see what it was, he saw a palm-sized gash on Old Zhou's face.

In an instant, blood started flowing down his face.

"This is just a warning. If it happens again, don't blame me for being ruthless."

He Chuan's voice was calm, but everyone saw the wound on Lao Zhou's face, though no one saw how he drew his sword.

They didn't even know where He Chuan's sword was hidden.

Old Zhou wiped the blood from his wound: "What? Did I say something wrong? Can you guarantee you'll make it back alive? This is the apocalypse; nobody knows what will happen next. Or are you scared, thinking that what I said will get you into trouble?"
