Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 4980 (Four Thousand Nine Hundred and Eighty) Not Yet
"It's... it's because... I... I thought too much, so... I was afraid... When I was afraid... I trembled... I guess." The man said, "People don't just tremble when they're cold... They also tremble when they're afraid."

The Gray Hand Man said, "What are you afraid of?"

"I'm afraid that's the wrong thing to say," the man replied.

"Didn't I give you some time to think about it just now?" asked the man with gray hands.

"Yes, but... when I think about it, I... am always afraid." said the man.

The Gray Hand Man asked again, "What are you afraid of?"

"I... don't know either. I'm just worried about things that haven't happened yet." said the man.

"What hasn't happened yet?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

The man said, "What if I... after thinking for so long, what I say is still wrong? What then?"

"What do you think will happen?" the Gray Hand Man asked again.

The man said again: "I don't know either."

"I don't know?" the man said, "Then what are you afraid of?"

"It's because I don't know...that's why I'm afraid." said the man.

"Are you worried about what we might do to you?" the Gray Hands Man asked.

"A little bit..." the man said. After he finished speaking, he felt that it was wrong to say so, as if he did not trust the Gray Hand Man and the Brown Hand Man, and added: "Of course, I also... I do not disbelieve what you said before."

The Gray Hand Man said, "Then you don't have to be nervous."

"What if I think about it for so long and still say it wrong, will you think I am deliberately lying to you?" asked the man with gray hands.

"Do you feel that you are deliberately deceiving us?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"Of course I won't. What I said was true." The man said. "Since it's true, why are you panicking?" the Gray Hand Man asked again.

"I can only control how I say it...but...but sometimes I can't be sure if there will be any problems with what I say, and I...can't control what the other person will think after hearing what I say." said the man.

“Still doubting us?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

"Not really." said the man.

"Then don't be afraid, just say whatever you want to say." said the man.

"But just now... every time I wanted to talk to you, I... I would say something else to myself." said the man.

"What are you talking about?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"Every time... every time it's different from what I say." The man replied.

"What about an example?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"At first I wanted to tell you... I... I've thought it through, I can... tell you." The man said, "But the next moment, I said to... myself: 'Don't make a mistake... I don't know if it's true, should I tell you what I guessed?'

The Gray Hand Man said, "Were you talking to yourself there just now?"

"About that," the man replied.

"Then how do you stop yourself?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"I seem to... I simply can't stop myself." The man said, "You made me stop by talking."

"What is the reason why my words can make you stop talking to yourself the way you just did?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"I don't know either. Maybe... maybe it's because... you... you are not an ordinary person." said the man.
