"Yes, patriarch." Li Pingrun said, "If it weren't for such a coincidence, I wouldn't have read it wrong."

Tie Wandao glanced at Li Pingrun with dissatisfaction and said, "In my impression, you have always been quite honest with me."

Li Pingrun thought: What does the patriarch mean? Does he think I am dishonest to him this time? Does he think I am lying?

Li Pingrun quickly said, "Yes, I have always been honest with the patriarch."

"Will people who have always been honest lie for fear of being blamed?" Tie Wandao asked.

Li Pingrun originally wanted to say "No", but immediately thought of what Tie Wandao said to him just now, "No matter what it is, you have to think about Jingdao before telling me." So he said, "I don't know whether others will do this, but I know I have not lie to the patriarch."

Tie Wandao looked at Li Pingrun, feeling that his eyes were sincere, but he felt that the story of the tree was too coincidental. He said, "You just said that the scene you saw when you came here this time is different from what you saw when you came last time. Have you carefully looked at two roads when you came last time?"

"Yes." Li Pingrundao, "Last time when I walked to this fork, I looked at two paths on the main road and saw two trees on these two paths."

"So what was the tree on the road you just walked when you came last time?" Tie Wandao asked.

"When I looked at it, the tree was like an ordinary tree, with branches and trunks, and it looked very ordinary." Li Pingrun replied.

"So, what's going on later?" Tie Wandao said.

"Later..." Li Pingrun said, "Did the patriarch ask me what I saw when we went there just now?"

"Yes, what else can it be if it isn't?" Tie Wandao said.

Li Pingrun thought: Didn’t the patriarch see the scene I saw just now? Why did he ask me this? No matter so much, let’s answer first.

Li Pingrun replied: "What I saw later was that the branches were on the ground."

"Is that branch the branch you saw last time you came?" Tie Wandao asked.

"It should be." Li Pingrun said.

"Are you sure?" Tie Wandao asked.

"I dare not say it's sure, but I feel it should be." Li Pingrun said.

"Do you remember whether they look the same?" Tie Wandao asked.

"I didn't remember what this branch looks like when I saw it for the first time." Li Pingrun said, "So I didn't have a deep impression, and it can even be said that I didn't have much impression."

Tie Wandao asked, "I didn't remember it when I first saw it. Then you saw it again just now. Do you have any impression of what you saw just now?"

"Yes." Li Pingrun said.

"Did you impress?" Tie Wandao asked.

"It's okay." Li Pingrun replied.

Tie Wandao said: "You describe the branch you saw."

"Describe what I just saw?" Li Pingrun asked.

"Yes, you're simply nonsense!" Tie Wandao said, "Didn't you say you didn't have any impression when you first saw it? Then what I told you to describe is naturally what you saw it the second time."

Li Pingrun described it.

At this time, Li Pingrun thought: I guess why the patriarch asked me this when he had seen it. He probably wanted to know if the scene I saw was consistent with the scene he saw? Although the actual scenery I saw was consistent with what he saw, after all, the content in the painting I saw was different from what he saw.
