Seeing Lin Wu looking over, the snake man hesitated, looked at Lin Wu, then looked at Lu Guichi, and actually swam towards him.

 Lu Guichi was not afraid at all.

 In fact, he didn't need to be afraid, because the snake man had no intention of attacking him at all. After approaching him, he circled around him a few times, and the tip of his tail wrapped around his wrist, which was a very affectionate gesture.

 Obviously, he was as close to Lu Guichi as he was to Lin Wu.

 And Lu Guichi looked at the snake man coldly.

The snake man shrank his neck, reluctantly let go of his hand, hissed and returned to Lin Wu's side, and then tested Lin Wu with the tip of his tail.

Seeing that Lin Wu had no intention of rejecting him, he circled around Lin Wu actively, not restless at all.

This scene made Lin Wu's expression slightly condensed, and his throat seemed to be strangled, making it difficult to make a sound.

"you…"

Lin Wu remembered something at an inappropriate time.

She looked directly at Lu Guichi, who was not far from her, and slowly walked towards him. With each step forward, the thoughts in her mind became clearer.

She asked bluntly: "Lu Guichi, did you already know that I had a tattoo on my body when I was at Pier 9?"

Lu Guichi was silent for a moment, and then said frankly: "I understand, so what?"

"No, it was just when I got the Buddha head under the Ninth Pier. I remember you said something to me at that time." Lin Wu said suddenly.

This sudden topic made Lu Guichi stunned, but he quickly understood the reason why Lin Wu mentioned it.

Lin Wu said: "At that time, I really couldn't tell what you were talking about. I just felt that it was something like... finally waiting, something that I couldn't understand."

"A lot of things happened later. When I learned about the underground city in Surabaya Prison, and the Buddha's head was taken out from there, and only when you get close to the phoenix tattoo will the content on it be revealed, I realized that you and the Huo family put the Buddha's head in There, it is to test whether a tattoo is really useful, or someone who has such a tattoo."

 “Obviously, I happen to be this person.”

Lin Wu finally stopped two steps away from Lu Guichi.

 The Lu Guichi in front of him was a bit unfamiliar to Lin Wu, not only in appearance but also in identity.

 She stared at the other person, as if she had met him for the first time: "I thought what happened under Pier 9 was a coincidence. I just happened to have such a tattoo, and I happened to encounter those things."

Lu Guichi listened and was about to say yes when he suddenly heard Lin Wu say -

 “But I overlooked one thing—how I got my tattoos.”

Having known Lin Wu for so long, Lu Guichi almost instantly expected what Lin Wu was going to say next. His expression changed slightly, "Wuxu, that's enough..."

 “Not enough, I haven’t finished speaking yet.”

Lin Wu interrupted him decisively, without any hesitation.

She said: "You know I have a tattoo. I thought it started at Pier 9. But now it seems that it is not at Pier 9."

"You obviously knew this a long time ago! It's just that you were still unsure, so you decided to appear in the reservoir area under the Ninth Pier and guide me to find the Buddha's head that belongs to the underground city, right?"

Lu Guichi said: "This is just your guess. When will you get rid of your random thoughts?!"

 “Because the time doesn’t match up!”

Lin Wu opened his mouth. Lu Guichi was speechless due to being blocked.

Lin Wu looked at him with mixed emotions, and broke everything down bit by bit and spread it out in front of him.

 “Lu Guichi, because the time doesn’t match.”

“If you only knew I had tattoos from the Buddha head a few months ago, what happened to this snake man?!”

"He has been here for at least five or six years. No one has entered this underground palace before. No one, of course, including you and me. But since you have never been here in recent years, how do you know that there is someone here? What, you know he won’t hurt me?”

"This is enough to explain two points. First, you are related to the people who built this place. So you are familiar with this place and know where the exit is. Of course, it is not ruled out that you have entered here long ago. But this may have been Your injuries have been eliminated."

Lin Wu looked at Lu Guichi's body and saw that his injuries were not much lighter than those of Zhang Shan and Xiao Yang.

Probably because of his amazing recovery ability, he was able to still stand in front of her and talk to her for so long.

She said slowly: "You have definitely never entered here. Otherwise, when you were outside the underground palace, you would not be so unfamiliar with the dangers and the roads, and you would be injured after entering. So I guess you just know that there are probably some things in the underground palace. What. And this probably includes whether the Snake Man will not harm people with tattoos, or will it not harm certain people?"

Lu Guichi’s expression froze.

Lin Wu looked at the palm of his hand. The wound on it had healed, leaving only a shallow scar.

“I think, no matter how powerful this tattoo is, it won’t change a person’s bloodline, right? After all, the tattoo is only made of special pigments and does not affect the person’s genetic bloodline.”

“But my blood can open this place and let out what’s underneath.”

"According to what you said, you only confirmed that I had a tattoo a few months ago. How did you confirm that my blood was useful? In such a short period of time, you had no chance to get my blood for experiments, let alone Maybe bring it here to try.”

“So the second point is obvious. As early as before Pier 9, you have already guessed that I have a tattoo and that I am special. And the existence of the Buddha’s head just provides evidence for your guess.”

As soon as the words fell, a suffocating silence filled the entire tomb.

 Lu Guichi closed his eyes forcefully.

Lin Wu also looked unusually dazed, even in a trance.

“This goes back to the issue I just said that I ignored—when and how I got my tattoo.”

"Lu Guichi, since you have known that I have a tattoo for a long time, it means that you know a lot about it, and you may also know how I got it, right?!"

Lu Guichi couldn't remain silent any longer. He finally opened his eyes and faced her directly, saying, "Yes, as you said, I may have... known about it a long time ago. But I have never thought of using you in this before."

Lin Wu stared at him.

Lu Guichi broke the jar and said: "When I knew you were going to go down to the ninth pier, I stopped you. If you didn't go down at that time, nothing would happen next! I didn't think about it in Surabaya Prison later. I brought you into this, you are... setting a trap for me! Even this time when I went into the mine, I warned you in every possible way to stop you!"

His face looked a bit incomprehensible and hurt.

"Wuwu, I have always regarded you as a friend and have never thought of harming you. I have advised you so many times, why do you insist on investigating and getting into these muddy waters? Why can't you pretend that you don't know anything... "

 “Always be friends?”

Lin Wu thought this was really ridiculous. He twitched his lips and only asked one sentence -

“Since you have known that I have tattoos for a long time, was it a coincidence that we met six years ago, or was it something you did intentionally?”

Lu Guichi's words suddenly stopped.
