Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 2571 (Two Thousand Five Hundred and Seventy-One) No

Li Pingrun was a little at a loss. He nodded again and looked at Tie Wandao. He didn't dare to react too quickly, for fear that any quick reaction would be found fault with by Tie Wandao.

He wanted to say "yes" but before he could utter it, Tie Wandao said, "You told me 'same' directly like you did just now. It may not seem like a big deal on the surface, but it is actually a big problem. The reason why I want to make this clear to you is not just to discuss the facts. If in other situations in the future, there are obviously differences, but you tell me 'same', who knows if it will cause big mistakes? I am telling you this to remind you what to do in the future. No matter what it is, you should think it through before telling me."

As he said these words, Tie Wandao frowned again.

Li Pingrun thought: If I think about it carefully before speaking, will the clan leader think I am testing him because he finds it strange? Before, the clan leader asked me if I had any other questions. I said that if the clan leader didn't point out any specific situation, then I can be sure that there is no more. It was precisely because I thought about it carefully at that time that the clan leader said I was testing him.

Li Pingrun was somewhat glad that he did not rush to say anything when he spoke this time, but just nodded. Otherwise, he really didn't know whether Tie Wandao would think that he expressed his opinion without listening to him completely.

After Tie Wandao finished saying that, he stopped and looked at Li Pingrun.

Li Pingrun then said, "Yes, Patriarch, I understand."

Tie Jinjue thought: Although the clan leader used this incident to talk about other things, he still gave people a very strange feeling this time, as if he was deliberately picking on people. Is the clan leader like this temporarily, or will he be like this in the future? His behavior actually didn't seem to be specifically directed at Li Fangshi. If he treated other people in this strange way in the future, would it cause any...

The three of them talked about something else on the way and then came to a fork in the road.

"Which road did you take when you first came here today?" Tie Wandao asked Li Pingrun.

Li Pingrun looked around, pointed to the road on the left and said, "This one."

"Let's go!" Tie Wandao said. The three of them had just walked onto that road when Li Pingrun felt something was wrong. He suddenly stopped and said to the two of them cautiously, "Patriarch, Elder Tie, this road doesn't seem right."

Tie Wandao stopped immediately and stared at Li Pingrun.

Tie Jinjue sensed the obvious change in the atmosphere. He didn't want to say anything more, but he felt that if he didn't say anything at this time, he didn't know what Li Pingrun would face, so he quickly said to Li Pingrun: "You mean, which road we just took is the right one?"

Li Pingrun nodded and said, "Yes, Elder Tie."

"Fortunately you told us as soon as we set out on this road, so we didn't waste any time. In that case, let's quickly take another road." Tie Jinjue said.

After saying this, Tie Jinjue glanced at Tie Wandao and said, "Time is running out, let's go."

As he said this, he was about to go another way.

Tie Wandao, who originally wanted to vent his anger, did not say anything immediately after hearing what Tie Jinjue said. Instead, he walked away with Tie Jinjue. However, while leaving, his eyes were still staring at Li Pingrun.

Li Pingrun's heart was beating fast. He didn't dare to continue looking at Tie Wandao. He just kept an eye on him. As he walked, he thought to himself: Chief, please don't be angry with me. I really didn't mean it. Who knew that such changes would occur after the rain and led to misunderstanding... But the chief seems to be still waiting for me!
