Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 1863 (One Thousand Eight Hundred and Sixty Three) Terror

Actually, Hou Xueyan and Hou Jizhuan knew from the conversation between Tie Hongyan and Tie Jinjue that they had seen the blue-armored men caught by the two men, and they were already very scared. But when they heard Tie Jinjue say, "What are these tied guys doing?", Tie Hongyan said, "I don't know," and also said, "Let's look for them here quickly, and we must look carefully here, just in case we can find them!", so the two Taoist priests were much less afraid, and they both hoped that Tie Hongyan, Wu Xunsheng and Tie Jinjue would find the things and leave without asking any more questions. When the two Taoist priests saw the three people looking for things, no one asked them about the blue-armored men, which made the two Taoist priests hope to escape.

At this moment, when they suddenly heard Tie Hongyan directly ask about the origins of those blue-armored people, Hou Xueyan and Hou Jizhuan were both horrified. The fear in their hearts was suddenly much more serious than when they first learned from the conversation that Tie Hongyan and Tie Jinjue had seen the blue-armored people. They knew that the people working in Tiecangting were specially managed by someone. If it weren't for the special means, it would be difficult for Hou Xueyan to catch these blue-armored people here. They both knew that although those blue-armored people who worked were sometimes publicly killed by those who managed them, it was obviously a serious problem for someone like Hou Xueyan to casually capture the blue-armored people who worked in Tiecangting. They knew that if a few blue-armored people disappeared, someone in charge would definitely look for them. They didn't know if anyone had already found out that these blue-armored people were captured by Hou Xueyan, and they didn't know if Tie Hongyan had already known if someone had found out. Hou Jizhuan and Hou Xueyan knew that the clothes worn by those blue-armored people could make people recognize at a glance that they were the blue-armored people working in Tiecangting.

Hou Xueyan's heart was pounding with fear, but he couldn't think of anything else to say, so he said, "Young Patriarch, they were caught."

Tie Hongyan had already figured out from the clothes those blue-armored men were wearing that they were captured blue-armored men, but he still deliberately asked, "Where did you capture them from?"

Hou Ji looked at Hou Xueyan with horror, but felt that such a look might be detrimental to Hou Xueyan, so he quickly lowered his head and touched his legs with his hands, pretending to pay attention to his legs because they were uncomfortable.

He felt that he shouldn't show fear, so when he raised his head and looked at Hou Xueyan again, he deliberately made himself appear less frightened.

Hou Xueyan was naturally terrified, and answered stammeringly, "It's... it's Tiecang Tingli."

"Could it be that he is doing labor?" Tie Hongyan asked deliberately.

Hou Xueyan said: "We will use them for a while and then put them back."

"Answer me directly, are they the guys working in Tiecangting?" Tie Hongyan asked with cold eyes.

Hou Xueyan was nervous and quickly glanced at Hou Jizhuan, then looked at Tie Hongyan, and was stunned by her gaze.

Tie Hongyan said: "Answer."

Hou Xueyan felt that beating around the bush would only anger her, so he answered directly, "Yes."

"You are so brave!" Tie Hongyan said, "Don't you know that doing this will affect the efficiency of the work in Tiecangting?"
