Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 2117

The subordinate looked outside the door in the direction of Tie Wandao's finger. The sunlight seemed to be calling him.

He really didn't want to spend another night in this gloomy Muxi Pavilion. Such fear made him feel worse than death. He wanted to walk out of Muxi Pavilion immediately and stand in the sun for a while. He imagined how warm the sun would be on his body. He wondered if the fear of spending the night in Muxi Pavilion would be dispelled by the sun.

However, he thought again: If I really go to the top of Muxi Pavilion, will I be able to come down alive?
He was worried that he would die up there—either from fright or from something that happened after he saw the ghost.

He stammered, "If...if I go up there, can I come down alive?"

Tie Wandao didn't hear clearly and asked, "What did you say? Say it again louder!"

In desperation, the subordinate raised his voice and said, "I... don't know... if I can come down alive after going up there."

"Of course!" Tie Wandao said.

The subordinate was stunned and looked at Tie Wandao.

Tie Wandao said: "I am the chief of the Tiecang tribe. I am standing in the Muxi Pavilion. You are my subordinate. After you go up, who dares to do anything to you?"

"Is the person above really... a human?" said the subordinate.

"I'll say it again, I'm the chief of the Tiecang tribe! You are my subordinate, and you are ordered to go up there. No matter who it is, they will not dare to do anything to you!" Tie Wandao said. In fact, when he said this, he was not really sure in his heart, but he felt that only by saying this could he appear respectable in front of his subordinates.

The subordinate murmured "oh" softly and looked around anxiously.

"What's the matter? Do you underestimate me?" Tie Wandao said, "I have explained it so clearly, what else do you have concerns? If you have concerns, just continue to live here! Live here for three to five days, ten days, half a month, one or two months, one day your concerns will be gone!" "No...no...no!" the subordinate said, "I don't want to live here."

"Then go ahead!" Tie Wandao said, "There are only two roads, choose one!"

"Okay... then... I'll go... up... up." The subordinate said stutteringly in fear.

"If you had done this earlier, there wouldn't be so much trouble! The more you talk, the worse things will be!" Tie Wandao said, "Hurry up and go up before the singing stops!"

"Yes..." said the subordinate.

"You must go to the top floor! There will be no danger if you are honest! If you lie to me, you will definitely be killed by the monster! Remember, definitely!" Tie Wandao said.

The subordinate shuddered again, said "yes", and went up.

Not long after the men went up, the singing stopped.

Tie Wandao thought to himself: If he didn't go up earlier, the singing would have stopped!

After a while, the singing started again.

Tie Wandao thought: Finally, they are singing again! This singing voice is really strange, it seems to be floating down, and it is different from the voice of ordinary people singing. To be honest... it is a bit... a bit unlike the voice directly produced by a person. If it is really a ghost, could it be that the person who was imprisoned in Muxi Pavilion before turned into a ghost and sang?
Tie Wandao felt a little uneasy when he thought about it. He walked towards the door, felt the warm wind coming in from outside, looked at the sunshine outside, and when he felt a little more at ease, he turned around and looked at the Muxi Pavilion. He never closed the door of the Muxi Pavilion, and then he didn't go in immediately.
