Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 4796 (Four Thousand Seven Hundred and Ninety-Six)

“No,” the man replied, “At that time… at some point in that world… I knew it.”

"But you still compromise again and again?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

“Yes… yes…” the man said, “That… that is my shame.”

The Gray Hand asked, "I've known for a long time that compromise is useless, so why do you compromise so many times?"

“Sometimes… when I feel that he is totally useless, I suddenly… suddenly have fantasies about him and compromise temporarily… but… but other times… mainly… mainly when I see that he… he has signs of attacking me… I… I will compromise naturally… I don’t… I don’t have the time to think too much.” The man answered.

"When you feel you might suffer more, you compromise?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"It's not like this every time, it's just... only some of the time... I feel... it might be caused by human instinct." said the man.

"There were other times when you didn't compromise," said the Gray Hand.

"Yes! Yes!" the man said, "Those were the times when... probably the shame overwhelmed... overwhelmed my instinct to hide."

"Do you think that sense of shame can override instinct?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"It seems...it seems that there is such a time." said the man.

"Then where do you think your sense of shame comes from?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"I... I don't know either." The man said, "That sense of shame sometimes... sometimes it seems... seems to have great power, as if it can control me... " "Do you think it's good for you to have that sense of shame?" asked the man with gray hands.

"It depends on the situation..." the man said, "Sometimes it is beneficial. At least it can make me, a Tiecang person, unable to tolerate certain situations related to the Blue Armored People... so that I can still... still have the dignity of a Tiecang person... But other times... it may make me do things that put my life in danger."

"What do you think is the dignity of the Iron Warehouse people?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"The dignity of Tiecang people includes... a lot of things... What I just said is just... just one of them." The man replied.

"Which kind?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

“That’s right… that’s right, in front of the Blue-Armored People, the Iron Cang People… are human beings… so they are… they are stronger… much stronger than the Blue-Armored People who are not human beings.” The man said, “The Iron Cang People cannot be compared with the Blue-Armored People at all, and… they cannot lose to the Blue-Armored People… they cannot be afraid of the Blue-Armored People… they cannot…”

The Gray Hand Man asked, "Do you think, from this perspective, that the dignity of the Iron Warehouse people was actually affected by the Blue Armor Man?"

The man thought of a problem that the Gray Hand Man had discussed with him before, and felt that it was a bit similar, and vaguely felt that something was wrong.

"Of course... I'm not saying... in this regard... whether the Iron Cang people have dignity... is determined by their relationship with the Blue Armor people..." the man said, "That's not what I mean."

The Gray Hand asked, "What does that mean?"

The man thought for a moment and said, "I... can't really explain it... anyway... anyway... the Tiecang people are human, the Lanjia people are not... When it comes to matters concerning the Lanjia people, the Tiecang people cannot lose face!"
