Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 2661 (Two Thousand Six Hundred and Sixty-One) Detour

Tie Wandao said: "Now look at the wall, can you understand something more?"

After Li Pingrun said "yes", he looked towards the wall where part of it had collapsed. When he saw it, he was startled again and immediately turned his head to the other direction.

"What's wrong?" Tie Wandao felt that Li Pingrun must have seen something, but he pretended to be calm and asked.

"Clan... Clan leader, I seem to see my sister's face again." Li Pingrun said.

"Where did you see it?" Tie Wandao asked deliberately.

"It's right there... on the wall that has partially collapsed." Li Pingrun said, pointing to where he saw his sister's face.

Tie Wandao looked in the direction his finger pointed and saw half of Tie Jinqi's face again.

Tie Wandao thought: I only saw half of the face, what about him?

He didn't want to say it directly, so he asked Li Pingrun in a roundabout way: "Is your sister's face that scary?"

He felt that after he asked this, if Li Pingrun saw half of the face, he would tell the truth.

"But there's only half of her face there." Li Pingrun said.

Just as Tie Wandao expected, Li Pingrun told the reason for his fear.

Tie Wandao asked: "Why did you see half of your sister's face there?"

Li Pingrun said, "I don't know."

"Can you understand what you are doing?" Tie Wandao asked.

When Li Pingrun heard that another ritual was going to be performed, he felt that it was risky, but since Tie Wandao had said so, he couldn't refuse directly, so he said, "I understand, but there is still a risk." Tie Wandao said, "Wasn't there a risk just now? Is the risk bigger this time?" He really wanted to understand why he saw half of Tie Jinqi's face on the partially collapsed wall, so he asked.

Li Pingrun said: "Compared to the last time, the risk this time is slightly smaller."

"This time I still don't need to stay away from you or keep silent, right?" Tie Wandao asked.

"Yes, clan leader." Li Pingrun said, "But I still cannot be disturbed while I am performing the ritual."

"Well, then you should do it quickly." Tie Wandao said.

Tie Wandao originally wanted to let Li Pingrun look at the button on the ground, but because he saw half of Tie Jinqi's face, his attention was temporarily drawn to this matter. So he decided to let Li Pingrun perform the ritual first, and he would let Li Pingrun look at the button later.

"Yes, Patriarch." Li Pingrun said.

As he spoke, Li Pingrun began to perform a ritual on the partially collapsed wall.

When Tie Wandao saw half of Tie Jinqi's face, he felt uncomfortable and turned around again to avoid him.

He walked to the button and looked at it, then looked around for other buttons.

After searching for a while, he didn't find any other buttons, so he went back to the button.

He wanted to turn around and look at Li Pingrun, but he didn't want to feel uncomfortable by seeing Tie Jinqi's dead face on the copper plate again or half of Tie Jinqi's face on the partially collapsed wall, so he didn't turn around immediately and had to wait for Li Pingrun to finish the ritual.

After Li Pingrun finished the ritual, he turned around and looked at Tie Wandao who had his back to him because he didn't want to see his sister's half face on the collapsed wall again.

Tie Wandao heard the sound of Li Pingrun turning around, but he did not turn around to look at Li Pingrun immediately. He felt that he would soon have to ask Li Pingrun to come over to look at the button on the ground, so he might as well just call him over.
