Chapter 2021 (Two Thousand and Twenty-One) Red

"That's true." Tie Jinjue said.

"Is the process the same both times? When you took the Kuanhong White Jade to the vicinity of the Qixing Zuiren Pavilion for the second time, the jade first became hot and red. When you left the vicinity, it turned back to white and left this red line?" Tie Hongyan asked.

"It should be about the same." Tie Jinjue replied, "Of course, maybe the speed at which the red line appears the second time is a little different from the first time."

"How did uncle think of going there again?" Tie Hongyan asked.

Tie Jinjue said, "I went to see Taoist Ni. After performing a ritual for Kuanhong Baiyu, Taoist Ni told me some of the situations she had learned. She said the situation was serious. If it continued like this, the future path of the Tiecang tribe would be different. I asked her if it was related to the position of the tribe leader. She said it was. I asked her the details. She said that she couldn't just talk about such things based on what she learned after performing the ritual. I didn't know at the time if she was worried that I would punish her because she would feel uncomfortable after telling her, so I told her that I wouldn't do that, and that if she was worried, I had agreed in advance that I would not punish her. At this time, she still didn't tell me the details immediately. She said that for matters related to the future of the Tiecang tribe, the more rigorous the better, so she wanted to go to the vicinity of the Qixing Zuiren Pavilion to take a look. I asked her if she had time, and she happened to have time, so we went to the vicinity of the Qixing Zuiren Pavilion together."

"So, uncle went with her to the vicinity of the Seven Stars Drunk Pavilion." Tie Hongyan said, "She said to take a look at the vicinity of the Seven Stars Drunk Pavilion, and you went there to take a look that day. Does this mean that this matter is urgent?"

"It's indeed urgent." Tie Jinjue said, "Before I asked her if she had time to go, she said she didn't know if there would be a suitable opportunity in the short term to change the situation she saw. She told me that things can't be delayed for too long, otherwise there might not even be a chance to save the situation."

"After you arrived near the Qixing Zuiren Pavilion, did she perform rituals directly there?" Tie Hongyan asked.

"Yes." Tie Jinjue said, "This time she performed a ritual directly near the Qixing Zuiren Pavilion. This time she did not just perform a ritual for Kuanhong Baiyu to understand the situation of the Qixing Zuiren Pavilion."

"Were there many people in the area of ​​Qixing Zuiren Pavilion at that time?" Tie Hongyan asked.

"When we first arrived there, there was an Tiecang man holding a whip and several blue-armored men at the Qixing Zuiren Pavilion. They seemed to be packing up and preparing to leave. They haven't left yet." Tie Jinjue said, "There was no one else where she and I were. She performed the spell after we reached the hidden bushes. When I asked her if her movements would be very obvious, she said to try to use spells with small movements. Later, her movements were indeed small, so no one should have noticed her and me."

"When you got to the bushes, what color was the Kuanhong White Jade in my uncle's hand?" Tie Hongyan asked.

"It's always been red." Tie Jinjue answered. "This shows that the place is suitable for her to perform magic. She said that as long as the Kuanhong White Jade is still red, it can prove that the location of the Kuanhong White Jade is within the range suitable for her to perform magic."

"After she performed the ritual and you left the range suitable for her to perform the ritual, did the Kuanhong White Jade turn white and have a thin red line?" Tie Hongyan asked.

"Yes. When I saw that situation, I pointed to the thin line and showed it to her. She told me that she saw it." Tie Jinjue said.
