Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 1805 (One Thousand Eight Hundred and Five) Indeed
Tie Jinjue asked worriedly, "Then what did you tell the clan leader?"

Tie Hongyan said: "I was in a very bad state at the time and didn't have time to think of any appropriate words to respond. I just told my dad that I didn't take advantage of anyone and that others were just accompanying me to play."

"What was the clan leader's reaction?" Tie Jinjue asked.

"Dad asked me why, after I touched the invisible curtain, he went to the gray house that day and found something unusual inside," said Tie Hongyan.

Tie Jinjue said: "From this perspective, the clan leader had obviously determined that it was you who caused the Gray House to become abnormal."

Tie Hongyan said: "Indeed."

Tie Jinjue put his left hand on his chin, frowned slightly and said, "Then how did you answer him?"

"I was very surprised when I heard that. I really didn't know that the situation in the gray house was abnormal before, and I was also very surprised." Tie Hongyan said, "I told my father at that time. If he hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known that the situation in the gray house was abnormal. I just wanted my father to know that it was not caused by me."

Tie Jinjue asked again: "The clan leader won't believe you just based on your words, right?"

"Dad didn't believe it. He thought it was my fault and said I didn't admit it. He said he would see if I had anything to say later." Tie Hongyan said, "Dad asked me to put on my coat immediately and told me someone would take me to the guest room."

"Did he tell you why he wanted someone to take you to the reception room?" Tie Jinjue asked.

"My father didn't tell me immediately at that time. Later, when I arrived at the reception hall and met Taoist Hou, I wondered if the Taoist would say that the problem with the gray house was caused by me. However, I had never met the Taoist before, and it would not be good for him if I were to put the blame on me. Even if the Taoist said that it was my fault, if he didn't say that for reasons related to magic that I didn't understand, then there must be some misunderstanding." Tie Hongyan said.

Tie Jinjue said: "That alchemist was brought by the clan leader..."

"Yes." Tie Hongyan said, "In front of Taoist Hou, my father told me in the guest hall that Taoist Hou was the one who performed rituals for the 'human tools' in the Gray House. My father also asked me to listen directly to Taoist Hou's explanation of the problem inside the Gray House and how it was related to me touching the invisible curtain. I was really worried that what the Taoist said would be detrimental to me. Although I did not go to the Gray House and did not do anything to it, if the Taoist insisted that what happened in the Gray House was related to me, then I would not be able to explain myself if I was wronged, at least not for a while, after all, it was a fact that I touched the invisible curtain."

Tie Jinjue asked, "Did that Taoist priest Hou say anything bad about you?"

"No." Tie Hongyan said, "So for a while I didn't understand why my father brought Hou Fangshi to the guest room in Henglian Residence. I asked Hou Fangshi directly if what he told the clan leader about the problem inside the gray house was related to my touching the invisible curtain."

Tie Jinjue asked, "What did Master Hou say?"

Tie Hongyan said: "He didn't dare to speak at first. It can be seen that my father had ordered him not to speak before. He didn't dare to speak until my father said that he was allowed to speak. I really didn't expect that Hou Fangshi told me that he didn't say that. My father also said that Hou Fangshi didn't dare to say it because he was afraid of me. Hou Fangshi's reaction at that time should not be the reaction my father thought he would see. At that time, I could see that there was a misunderstanding between him and my father. He wanted to explain something a long time ago, but my father had not let him speak before, so he couldn't explain it at that time."
