Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 3168 (Three Thousand One Hundred and Sixty Eight) Busy

"So what did you say?" Tie Hongyan asked.

"I just said that I didn't disbelieve him, I just said that." said the man with short eyebrows.

"When he told you the situation, didn't you have any doubts at all?" Tie Hongyan asked.

"Yeah, I usually don't doubt what he says." The man with short eyebrows said, "I believed this matter at the time. Anyway, he said 'estimate', which proves that he is not sure about it."

Since she heard the man with short eyebrows say that he believed it “at that time” and the word “at that time” was a bit strong, she felt that he might doubt or even stop believing it later, so she asked: “Did you believe it only at that time?”

"Yes." said the one with short eyebrows.

"Why didn't you believe it later?" Tie Hongyan asked.

"Later, I became a little worried, so I told them about this." The man with short eyebrows pointed at the other people in Tiecang who were holding whips.

Tie Hongyan asked: "What was their reaction at that time?"

"They said I was sick." The man with short eyebrows said, "Some said it happened a long time ago, how come I suddenly remembered it again. Some people also asked me if I didn't sleep well recently and was just imagining things."

"Did you react like this at that time?" Tie Hongyan asked the Tiecang people who were holding whips.

Those people nodded.

Tie Hongyan asked again: "Have any of you thought carefully about what he said?"

They shook their heads.

Tie Hongyan asked the man with short eyebrows: "What was your reaction at that time?"

"At that time, I still somewhat believed what Ge Xiaonie said, so I told them... what Ge Xiaonie said about a man in blue armor committing suicide near the Qixing Zuiren Pavilion, and his blood splattered on the central pavilion." The man with short eyebrows said, "He also said that the person who told me about this had told me that it was very unlucky." "What was their reaction at that time?" Tie Hongyan asked again.

"Everyone was busy at that time. Some people said that I was ridiculous for being timid; some people asked me if I was thinking so much because I always had nightmares at night; some people asked me if I had eaten too much; some people told me that the incident at the Seven Stars Zui Ren Pavilion was unlucky and it did not mean anything about the problem of Rong Mangtai." said the man with short eyebrows.

"Didn't you think what he said was a big deal at the time?" Tie Hongyan asked the Tiecang people who were holding whips.

As Tie Hongyan spoke, his gaze lingered on each of the people for a while.

The man from Tiecang with messy hair noticed Tie Hongyan's gaze and said, "I didn't believe it at the time."

The man with the ash on his nose, the Tiecang man, also felt that Tie Hongyan seemed to want him to answer, so he said, "I thought he was abnormal at the time. How could he recall the past just because he heard a few words from others?"

Another Tiecang resident said: "I thought at the time that he might have not done his job well and was so suspicious of this and that."

The tall man from Tiecang said, "I find it funny when he says that."

Another Tiecang person said, "At that time, I thought the person who told him that was quite funny. I thought that nothing had happened to us for such a long time! I didn't believe it at all, so I deliberately teased him and asked him if the person who told him was a magician."

"How did he answer?" Tie Hongyan asked.

"He told me that the person who told him that didn't know any magic," the man said.

"Then what?" Tie Hongyan asked.

"Then I burst out laughing," the man said, "I teased him, but he answered seriously and told me that the man himself didn't know magic, so he thought it was funny."
