Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 1740 (One Thousand Seven Hundred and Forty) How
"Does it require more than one alchemist to perform the ritual?" Tie Hongyan asked.

"Yes, Young Clan Leader." Hou Jizhuan said, "Not only that, this process also requires the help of other people. After absorbing the Soul Purifying Qi from the body of the person who has it, the alchemists will go to the gray house to perform the ritual."

"What will happen to the gray house after the alchemists perform the ritual?" Tie Hongyan asked.

Hou Jizhuan replied: "There will be some strange changes inside the gray house, and the status of those humanoid tools will also change. I have finished the ritual with the Taoist priests, and the problem is solved. Of course, I need to be more careful when doing things in the gray house in the next few days."

At this time, someone knocked on the door of Henglianju. Tie Wandao went to open the door. After seeing the person outside, he walked out and closed the door of Henglianju from the outside.

Tie Hongyan continued to ask questions of Ji Zhuan: "Solved? What will happen after it is solved? Can the interior of the gray house be restored to the way it was before the problem occurred?"

Hou Jizhuan said: "About the same..."

"Almost?" Tie Hongyan said, "That means no matter what you do later, the situation in the gray house cannot be restored to the same as before?"

Hou Jizhuan said: "Well...it seems...that can't be said."

Tie Hongyan asked: "Why are you hesitating? Is there something wrong?"

"Actually...it doesn't affect anything." Hou Jizhuan said.

"Don't you want me to help you?" Tie Hongyan asked.

"Yes." Hou Jizhu said.

Tie Hongyan asked: "If you don't tell me the truth, how can I understand it clearly?"

Hou Jizhuan said: "Oh... come to think of it... that's the truth."

"Then just tell me directly." Tie Hongyan said, "I am the one with the soul-purifying energy. I want to know clearly." Tie Hongyan felt that Hou Jizhuan didn't dare to say it clearly because he was worried that Tie Wandao would know, so he added: "Tell me, I won't tell others casually."

Hou Jizhuan's nervousness immediately subsided after hearing this. He said, "Young Clan Leader said he would not tell anyone casually, so will he tell... tell the Clan Leader?"

Tie Hongyan thought: He is indeed afraid of my father.

So she said, "Oh, so you are just worried that I will tell the clan leader?"

Hou Jizhuan said, "I have already done something wrong. If the clan leader knows something, I... I really don't know what to do... I am worried that before I do anything, the clan leader will get angry and kill me. In this case, not only will those humanoid tools die, but other people in Tiecangting will also die."

Tie Hongyan asked: "Why are there other people dying too?"

"Well..." Hou Jizhuan said, "I'm really scared of the clan leader. I don't know what to say."

"I promise you that I won't tell the clan leader, how about that?" Tie Hongyan asked.

Hou Jizhuan asked tremblingly, "Really?"

Tie Hongyan said: "You don't believe it? Is it true that if I don't tell the clan leader, I can't do it?"

"No." Hou Jizhuan said, "In fact, it doesn't matter if the clan leader doesn't know about this matter."

"Isn't that perfect?" Tie Hongyan said, "I promise you that I won't tell the clan leader. Can you tell me the whole situation truthfully?"

Hou Jizhu looked at Tie Hongyan and felt that she was sincere. She didn't look like she would tell Tie Wandao right after getting his words out of her.
