Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 1629 (One Thousand Six Hundred and Twenty-Nine) Hanging the Beam

Tie Wandao's father's words made the Taoist very panic. He immediately said, "Some things are like heaven's secrets that cannot be revealed. I don't know how to explain it to you clearly."

"Although it is a 'secret from heaven', you still told me." Tie Wandao's father said.

The Taoist said, "I did tell you, but what I told you is not considered as leaking the secret. If you tell others, it will be leaking the secret."

Tie Wandao's father still felt strange. He knew that the Taoist priest had mentioned the word "luck" to the people who built the central pavilion. Although those people did not know the specific relationship between the central pavilion and "luck", they did know that the central pavilion was related to "luck". So, Tie Wandao's father deliberately asked the Taoist priest: "Is it because the word 'luck' is involved that you cannot tell me the reason for protecting the central pavilion?"

Just as the Taoist priest was about to say "yes", he immediately remembered that Tie Wandao's father knew that he had mentioned the word "luck" in front of the people who built the central pavilion, and he suddenly realized that Tie Wandao's father seemed to be testing him.

So the Taoist priest said, "That's not the case. I have also mentioned the word 'luck' to those builders, and many people have heard of it, so it should be fine. But the 'secrets' I just mentioned cannot be told to the next tribe leader, and of course not to others, otherwise, it will really have a greater impact on the 'luck' of the Tiecang tribe."

After hearing what the Taoist said, Tie Wandao's father felt that the Taoist was not speaking casually as he imagined. He confirmed with the Taoist again which words he could tell others and which words he could only keep to himself, and the Taoist told him everything.

In order to avoid bringing greater impact on the fortune of the Tiecang tribe, Tie Wandao's father strictly followed what the alchemist said.

He asked those people not to build the surrounding pavilions for the time being, and asked the alchemist to perform a ritual to ensure that the central pavilion would not have an adverse effect on the fortune of the Tiecang tribe before the next tribe leader took office.

The man who was imprisoned in Muxi Pavilion by Tie Wandao's father sometimes sang in Muxi Pavilion, singing the songs of the Blue Armored People. The singing was sad, and the people of Tiecang who heard the singing said it was like a ghost. Not long after, the man hanged himself on the top floor of Muxi Pavilion.

Tie Wandao's father was very angry.

He believed that it was the person he imprisoned in Muxi Pavilion who caused him and the Tiecang tribe great trouble, and he did not think there was anything wrong with what he did.

The person he imprisoned was a blue-armored person. Tie Wandao's father originally thought that he, a Tiecang person, could control her and shape her as he wished. Later, he felt that she, a blue-armored person, was too ungrateful. He was really angry because he, the patriarch of the Tiecang tribe, had not been able to control the blue-armored person, who he considered to be of low status, as he wished, either through coercion or inducement. However, until her death, Tie Wandao's father had not achieved his goal, which he had thought would be easy to achieve. This made him feel a strong sense of frustration, mixed with unspeakable resentment. He knew that even if he dismembered her and threw her into a ditch, he would not be able to completely vent his anger.

In a rage, he sent people to look for the alchemist, but learned from his men that the alchemist had died tragically. This made Tie Wandao's father extremely angry, but he had no way to deal with it.
