(1902) Three

"Although the patriarch didn't say it, today I learned that most people in the Aogan Hall usually don't walk there. Then I will come to Aogan Hall alone and never pass through that area. Even if the patriarch doesn't mind, I think I'd better not walk there." Tie Jinjue said.

"What about that?" Tie Hongyan asked, "Before returning from Aogan Hall, did my uncle plan to pass by that area and go and see it?"

Tie Jinjue thought about it and said, "I originally wanted to see it."

"Have you changed your mind now?" Tie Hongyan asked.

"Now" Tie Jinjue Dao.

"Why, my uncle hesitated because he knew that no one else would take him away?" Tie Hongyan asked.

Tie Jinjue said: "It seems a bit strange that I walk from there alone."

"Where is yesterday?" Tie Hongyan said, "Did my uncle pass by there yesterday when he went back?"

"I've passed by." Tie Jinjue said.

"Did there be any new appearance yesterday?" Tie Hongyan asked.

"About the new appearance of the patriarch, no." Tie Jinjue said, "When I walked to the room where the white smoke was just right before, I saw someone else in the distance. I don't know if the people in the distance were thinking about what I was doing. Although I didn't know that they would not be close to the place where I stood at that time, I also felt that it would be unsuitable if I stopped and looked at the room where the white smoke had appeared. So I glanced at the room where the white smoke had appeared with my light, and there was no abnormality. Now, I thought about it, my performance yesterday was quite appropriate. If I stopped there and watched, others might wonder why I was like that after seeing me in the distance. If this matter reached the ears of the patriarch, it would be of no benefit to me anyway."

Tie Hongyan said, "From what my uncle meant, aren't you going to leave there later?"

"I don't want to leave there now, but I haven't decided yet," said Tie Jinjue.

Tie Hongyan said, "After hearing what my uncle told me about the situation of the person who stopped you, I think my father would let the person put on the ears of the law, probably because my father knew that he might make strange noises when he was in that room, but he didn't want the person who helped him watch to hear the sounds he made in the room. I think my father knew that no one would walk to where the three of us stood yesterday, and the position we stood yesterday was not very close to the room where the smoke was emitted, so my father did not take any more precautions."

Tie Jinjue said: "Yes, since no one passes there normally, the clan leader probably wouldn't have thought that the three of us would appear in that position yesterday, so he did not take precautions for this. Otherwise, the clan leader should have been on guard."

"However, yesterday the three of us stood there and couldn't actually hear everything the patriarch said. At first I heard those strange sounds, but I just felt that the patriarch was making a sound. Although I heard him sometimes seem to be imitating the call of animals, and sometimes he seemed to be talking humans, I didn't hear clearly what he said when he was talking humans. But later, when my father said the words involving my mother's name, for some reason, the voice suddenly became louder, so I could hear the words behind clearly." Tie Hongyan said.
