Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 4671 (Four Thousand Six Hundred and Seventy-One) Nail

"No." said the man.

"Why do you think he did that?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"Just... torture me." said the man.

"Are the poisonous snakes and centipedes still tormenting you?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"When the white light was sweeping across my mouth, I don't know what the poisonous snakes and centipedes were doing. Although my nails still hurt, but... but I can't feel the poisonous snakes and centipedes attacking my nails anymore." said the man.

"Did you ever wonder why the poisonous snakes and centipedes lifted your hands at first, but then stopped and started attacking your fingernails?" asked the man with gray hands.

"I thought about it." The man said, "At that time... I felt that the man who claimed to be my father... controlled the venomous snakes and centipedes and made them lift my hand. It is very likely... very likely that he wanted me to see my real fingernails. I don't know if he thought I would see that my fingernails had turned blue, so he deliberately... let me see. I think that the man who claimed to be my father might... might have discovered later that I would not see my fingernails as blue as he imagined, so... he let the venomous snakes and centipedes attack my fingernails, breaking them first, and then... using some special method to temporarily turn my nails into the same blue as the Blue-Armored Man... Even if he didn't make my fingernails turn that blue, he would... make it look like I thought my fingernails had turned that blue."

"Is this entirely your own guess?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"Yes." The man said, "But my guess is not completely without basis."

"What is the basis for your statement?" the Gray Hands Man asked again.

"It's just... it's just that I saw the shadows of my hands before, and I saw that the nails of the hands in the shadows had turned into the special blue color of the blue-armored man." The man said, "I think... the reason why I saw that shadow is... because the person who claimed to be my father used some... some special method to make me see the shadows of my hands and then see my real nails as the same blue as the shadows."

"Do you think that what you saw before, the shadows of your own hands, and the blue nails on those shadows, actually affected your eyes?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"I did think so." The man said, "Because... I saw that shadow, and that shadow must have had some effect on my eyes... My eyes were affected by the shadow... and then I saw my real fingernails... I might see them as blue. But... but the actions of the man who claimed to be my father made me feel that the actual situation was different from what he thought, so... so he used... another method, and no longer attacked my eyes, but... but attacked the fingernails of my hands, so he let the poisonous snakes and centipedes attack my fingernails."

"You thought so much at that time?" asked the Gray Hand Man. "When you were in so much pain, you thought so much?"

"Yes, at that time I... I thought a lot." The man said, "The reason why I first thought that person would attack my eyes was because I thought that the real fingernails of a Tiecang person like me could not turn blue."
