Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 1487 (One Thousand Four Hundred and Eighty-Seven) Kettle

Qi Cunzheng said: "Do you feel uncomfortable after drinking it?"

"No." said the master who found the matter interesting.

Qi Cun was about to enter the room. He first stepped into the room with his left foot, then retracted his left foot, stepped into the room with his right foot, and then retracted his right foot.

He stood at the door and paused for a moment to concentrate himself. He took another step forward with his left foot and did not retract it. He followed with his right foot and walked quickly to the middle of the table.

He touched the kettle with his left hand, then with his right hand, then with both hands at the same time, and then let go of the kettle.

"I just remembered something. I have been feeling uneasy, but now I finally feel at ease," said Qi Cunzheng.

"What made Boss Qi feel uneasy before?" Wu Xunsheng asked.

"Actually, I just feel like I have to touch this kettle again to feel at ease." Qi Cunzheng said, "It's okay now."

The expert who was frightened at the sight of Qi Cunzheng felt that Qi Cunzheng was even more frightening. He thought: Could he poison the water in the kettle by touching it? But he didn't touch the lid or the spout, so how could he poison it?

The usually serious master asked, "Why do you have to touch this kettle?"

"I know! It must be because Boss Qi thinks that if he doesn't do this, something terrible will happen!" said one of the two masters who were joking with each other before. After that, he asked Qi Cunzheng: "Boss Qi, am I right?"

Qi Cunzheng nodded and said, "Yes."

The expert who found the matter interesting said: "Boss Qi, if you feel that if you don't do something terrible, something terrible will happen, can you try not doing it for once?" "Why don't you do it when you clearly feel that something terrible is going to happen?" Qi Cunzheng asked.

"I just think it's fun." said the expert who found the matter interesting.

"No, it's not fun, it's scary!" Qi Cunzheng's eyes were filled with fear, "I can't stand that feeling, it's worse than death!"

"In fact, whether you touch the kettle or not has any direct relationship with whether something terrible will happen. The kettle can't decide anything." said the master who found the matter interesting.

"I don't know either. Some things seem to have nothing to do with each other, but in fact they may be related." Qi Cunzheng said.

The usually serious expert said, "You said it too, it may or may not be related."

Qi Cunzheng said: "But if something terrible happens, I can't afford the consequences! In this case, I must do my best to prevent terrible things from happening."

The expert who had said, "Boss Qi, are you thirsty? Please have a sip too?" wanted to drink a sip of hot water. He wanted to drink even more after seeing that the expert who thought the matter was interesting was fine after drinking it. However, when he saw Qi Cunzheng touch the kettle after he came in, he was worried that his action would cause some changes to the water in the kettle, so he said to Qi Cunzheng, "Boss Qi, can you... drink another sip of water? This might help you relax."

Without saying anything, Qi Cunzheng immediately poured some of the water from the kettle into the cup he had used before, and quickly drank the water. He said, "I know that if I touch the kettle, people will think I have done something, which will easily arouse suspicion. Now I have drunk some more, and you can see that the water is fine."

The expert was relieved and said, "Then I will drink too."
