Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 4200 (Four Thousand Two Hundred)
The man wearing the small gray hat said, "We heard ghost howling near the place where the bodies were collected. I just remembered it and was so scared that I was cold all over."

"Are you scared to the point of giving off chills?" Tie Wandao asked, "What's making that ghostly howl?"

"I... don't know." said the man wearing a small gray hat.

"You don't even know what it's called a ghost howling?" Tie Wandao asked.

"Because... it looks like it." said the man wearing a small gray hat.

"You are going to the house to collect the body of the 'blue-armored man', right?" Tie Wandao asked.

"Yes." said the man wearing a small gray hat.

"Are you afraid of the ghost transformed from the blue-armored man?" Tie Wandao asked.

When the man wearing the small gray hat heard Tie Wandao talking about the things related to the Blue-Armored Man, he thought that if the ghost he was afraid of was transformed from the Blue-Armored Man, then it was equivalent to him being afraid of the Blue-Armored Man. If a Tiecang person showed fear of the Blue-Armored Man in front of Tie Wandao, then both Tie Wandao and some other Tiecang people would definitely think that this was a disgrace to the Tiecang people.

The man wearing the small gray hat quickly denied it: "No! Absolutely not!"

"No?" Tie Wandao said, "Then tell me what happened?"

The man wearing the small gray hat explained: "In fact, the ghost howling sound appeared before the young patriarch killed the blue-armored man."

The man wearing the small gray hat said this to prove that the ghost howling that he was afraid of was not made by the ghosts transformed from the corpses of the blue-armored men. But in fact, he had no idea where the sound came from. He even felt that the ghost howling might be related to the blue-armored men who had been cast a spell.

After saying this, he suddenly felt that it was right to mention the young patriarch. At least it made Tie Wandao realize that Tie Hongyan was also at the scene and was also "contaminated" by the corpses of the blue-armored people. Although he did not think that Tie Wandao would definitely use the same standards for Tie Hongyan as for them, his mentioning it reminded Tie Wandao that Tie Hongyan was also involved in this matter. He imagined that maybe Tie Wandao could not show the different standards between him and Tie Hongyan so obviously for the sake of face. At this moment, he felt that by mentioning Tie Hongyan, the possibility of him being killed because of being "contaminated" by the corpses of the blue-armored people was lower. "You mean, the ghost howling has nothing to do with the blue-armored people?" Tie Wandao asked.

"Yes, it's okay." said the man in the small gray hat.

Tie Wandao asked, "Then where do you think the ghost howling came from?"

“Chief, I don’t know either. That’s why I’m afraid…” said the man wearing a small gray hat.

Tie Wandao sneered and said, "I don't know. That's what you said. I don't even know where it came from, and you told me that the ghost howling has nothing to do with the blue-armored man? Do you know or not?"

The man wearing a small gray hat said, "Chief... Chief, I just don't know where that ghost howl came from, but I know it definitely has nothing to do with the blue-armored man."

Tie Wandao asked: "Why? We don't even know where it came from. How did you determine that it has nothing to do with the Blue Armor Man?"

The man wearing a small gray hat answered, "It was because the young patriarch hadn't killed those blue-armored people at that time. Since the blue-armored people were still alive, then...they weren't ghosts...if they weren't ghosts...they wouldn't be making ghost howls..."

Tie Wandao asked: "What's going on in your mind?"

The man in the little gray hat became even more frightened after hearing this.
