Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 1626 Seven Days

The Taoist priest said that he could use some magic to temporarily suppress the influence of the Central Pavilion on the fortune of the Tiecang tribe, and ensure that nothing major would happen to the Tiecang tribe during the tenure of Tie Wandao's father.

The Taoist priest also said that during the tenure of the tribe leader after Tie Wandao's father, if white gas rose from the top of the central pavilion for seven consecutive days, the construction of the surrounding pavilions around the central pavilion could begin. The surrounding pavilions must be completed before the next tribe leader takes office, so that the Tiecang tribe will not encounter major problems. The Taoist priest also emphasized the need to protect the central pavilion, and only when the central pavilion is intact can the surrounding pavilions be built to improve the luck.

Tie Wandao's father suppressed his anger and asked, "When I am in office, we cannot build surrounding pavilions. After the next clan leader takes office after me, he must wait until white steam comes out of the top of the central pavilion for seven consecutive days before he can build surrounding pavilions. And, all seven pavilions must be built before the next clan leader takes office after him? Is it so strict? Is it not allowed at other times?"

The Taoist priest said tremblingly that this was necessary. If the surrounding pavilions were built at other times, it would have a very bad impact on the fortune of the Tiecang tribe.

Tie Wandao's father asked: "What should we do if the central pavilion is damaged before the surrounding pavilions are built?"

The Taoist priest said, "Then... there is no way to deal with it... if the central pavilion is broken, it won't work even if we repair it."

Before the Taoist priest finished speaking, Tie Wandao's father interrupted him and asked, "Is it not possible to build a new central pavilion next to the central pavilion?"

"No." The Taoist said, "The central pavilion must be the original one."

The Taoist priest continued, "The clan leader can only tell the next clan leader to protect the central pavilion. After the central pavilion has white gas coming out of the top for seven consecutive days, you can start building the surrounding pavilions. The materials for building the surrounding pavilions must be prepared in advance, and all seven pavilions must be built before the next clan leader takes office. But you cannot tell the next clan leader the specific reasons for protecting the central pavilion, and you cannot let the next clan leader know that if the central pavilion is damaged, it will not work even if it is repaired, and it will not work even if a new central pavilion is rebuilt. This is a secret that cannot be leaked. If the clan leader tells these words to the next clan leader, or tells other people, then the fortune of the Tiecang tribe will be even more affected."

"I can't tell the next clan leader or anyone else, and you told me! What if I accidentally tell others?" Tie Wandao's father said angrily, "You are looking for death!"

The Taoist said, "This... I must tell you. If you don't know, it will also affect the fortune of the Tiecang tribe."

"Isn't it just talking? Why would the fortune of the Tiecang tribe be more affected if I told the next chief or other people? In matters related to the Central Pavilion, can even telling a secret affect the fortune of the Tiecang tribe?" Tie Wandao's father said.

The Taoist priest said, "Yes. You were the one who ordered the construction of the central pavilion. I learned through my ritual that you were near the central pavilion on the day when the problem occurred. Although I don't know what caused the problem, I can be sure that there was some kind of connection between you and the central pavilion that day that I can't explain. So if you tell the secret to the next tribe leader or others, it will affect the fortune of the Tiecang tribe."
