Chapter 305 Pointless Arguments

I decided to observe the two mummies up close, so I asked Fatty for a burning phosphorus stick.

The male corpse held a skull in his left hand. The skull seemed to be made of crystal, with a glossy appearance, emitting a faint green fluorescence from the inside out. However, the fluorescence was very weak, and it was hard to notice without careful observation.

Two iron pieces and a branch were attached to his waist, which looked very peculiar. These three things looked neither like tools nor weapons. At first glance, it was hard to tell what they were for. However, the two iron pieces on his waist seemed to have been broken from the same iron plate, and the cracks at the joints of the iron pieces matched perfectly.

Holding the phosphorus stick, I observed the male mummy from the waist up, until I saw the male corpse's face--"Damn it!"

I screamed and took a step back in fright.

Damn it, this mummy looked exactly like me. I was immediately covered in sweat.

But I wasn't ready to give up. I still felt that he and I might just look alike.

I suddenly remembered that when I was a child, I accidentally fell from a tree while climbing it, fracturing the little finger bone of my right hand. At that time, the doctor did not recommend surgery, but suggested conservative treatment, so I did not have an operation.

But I also suffered from sequelae as a result. There was always a bump in the area where my little finger bone was fractured, which should have been hyperplasia from the bone healing.

So, I cautiously reached out and touched the little finger bone of the male mummy's right hand. Unexpectedly, there was the same bump in the same position on the mummy's finger bone as mine.

I panicked all of a sudden. Fatty's judgment was correct. The mummy in front of me was really "me," Zhao Chenguang, the Young Master.

While I was thinking about what was going on, I was also thinking about how to explain it to Fatty and the others.

While I was thinking, I shone the phosphorus stick on the female mummy's face—although her skin was already shriveled beyond recognition, I judged from her expression and appearance that this mummy was undoubtedly Han Yu herself.

Seeing my panicked look, Fatty seemed to have gained some confidence.

"What else do you have to say?" Fatty roared behind me.

I slowly stood up. Although I didn't know the reason for all of this, I had a general idea of how to solve the problem. However, I wasn't sure if this idea could smooth things over with Fatty and Rou Yi.

I said to Fatty and Rou Yi in a calm tone, "Can you let me explain?"

Fatty nodded and said grumpily, "Go ahead."

"Okay."

As long as they were willing to let me explain, there was still room for maneuver.

I pointed to the two corpses and asked Fatty, "For these two corpses to be dried to this extent, it would take at least some time, right? It shouldn't be possible to become like this in less than two years, right?"

Fatty replied, "Yes, that's right."

Hearing Fatty's affirmative answer, I was basically sure that it shouldn't be too difficult to convince them.

I asked Fatty, "When was the last time you saw Han Yu? When was the last time you heard news about Han Yu?"

Fatty was a little annoyed: "Don't beat around the bush with me, just say what you want to say, why keep asking me?"

I was also a little angry, being blamed by Fatty like this, and then not being allowed to ask questions.

I roared angrily: "Damn it, my eyebrows are on fire, it's a matter of life and death, and you're still being so aggressive. I'm asking, so you answer. If you still think I have a problem after I explain, then you can do whatever you want with me."

Hearing that my tone was suddenly so confident, Fatty softened.

Fatty said impatiently, "The last time I saw Han Yu was in the hospital ward that time. The last time I heard about Han Yu was when I saw those three people from the Z organization in the Kunlun Mountains..."

When Fatty said this, I pointed to the female mummy and interrupted Fatty: "Then tell me, Han Yu was still alive a few days ago, and now she's become a corpse?"

"Oh! That's what it is!" Fatty had a look of sudden realization.

Obviously, when Fatty first saw these two mummies, he was a little excited and subconsciously thought that I was already dead, that the mummies were the real me, and that the one who was talking to him now was fake. Rou Yi and Jennifer also had the preconceived notion that the mummies were Zhao Chenguang's corpses.

The knife in Fatty's hand dropped a bit, no longer pointing at my heart. It seemed that he was not so wary of me anymore.

"No, the situation in this strange immortal mountain is complicated. Who knows what's going on? Maybe it accelerated the drying process?" Fatty became vigilant again, his eyes still full of suspicion.

At this time, Rou Yi added an even more fatal sentence: "The clothes and belongings of this mummy are exactly the same as those of the Young Master that Fatty and I saw in the ancient desert city."

I cried out in despair. Rou Yi truly loved me, she was going to take my life while I was down.
