Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 5269 (Five Thousand Two Hundred and Sixty Nine) Silence

The Gray Hand asked, "And then?"

“I continued talking to that person, and asked, ‘Otherwise, why don’t you dare to come out…come out?’” the person said.

"Did the other party react at this time?" asked the man with gray hands.

"Still nothing." The man said, "I seem to sense... their arrogance. I feel like I am being servile... talking to them... and I really don't want to continue. It seems... it seems like if I say another word... I will only add shame to my identity as a Tiecang person."

"What did you say next?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"I said it." said the man.

"Don't you think it will add to the shame?" the man asked, "Why did you say it again?"

"Because... because at this moment, I felt... that the surroundings seemed to have become even colder." The man said, "The feeling of being frozen was really uncomfortable. I... I really wanted to leave... I couldn't stay in this environment any longer. If I continued to stay, I didn't know what would happen."

"Do you think you'll freeze to death?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"I think if I can freeze to death quickly, it's better than... it's better than continuing to suffer there... I'm just afraid that I won't freeze to death immediately, so I can only endure it." The man said, "I clearly feel a huge shame, but I can only endure the shame... I can't move at all."

"What did you say?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"I said to him, 'Come out!'" the man said. "Can he hear me?" the Gray Hand asked.

"I don't know either." The man said, "The other party has disappeared. I don't know who it is... but... but at least there was sound before. Now... now there is no sound. Silence again."

The Gray Hand Man asked, "Are you even angrier?"

"Yes." The man said, "I am even more angry! I am a Tiecang person, but I was... I was frozen there and had to speak to the blue-armored people when I didn't want to... I felt that speaking to me seemed to be better."

"Why do you feel that this statement seems to be better for you?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"If I don't speak... what will happen?" the man said, "I don't even know where the Blue-Armored Man is. I can only... can only wait like this? If I continue to wait silently like this... I think the other party will be even more indifferent... If I say something, just in case... just in case it can stimulate the Blue-Armored Man, maybe... maybe there will be a possibility of change."

"For you, at that time, as long as things changed, it was good enough?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"Yes... I... that's what I thought at the time." The man said, "I need change... I need to see change. I can't stand that kind of silence."

"How do you know that such a change will definitely be beneficial to you?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"I... don't know why I feel that way." The man said, "But... I just feel that changes are good for me... I just feel that... not being able to see changes is the most... the most painful. That kind of silence is enough to torture me to death... No, it can't be said to be that kind of silence, it's that kind of darkness and coldness that torture me. Everything is so quiet that I can't see any changes... That all is torture for me, a torture that is indescribable. If I want to get rid of that torture, I must... hear the sound first."
