Chapter 3083 (Three Thousand and Eighty-three) No wonder

Tie Jinjue said: “At that time, the sky was covered with dark clouds…”

Tie Jinjue started talking, but he did not say some things about the Tiecang people and the Lanjia people. At this time, he naturally could not let Li Pingrun suspect that he was working for the Lanjia people.

As soon as Li Pingrun heard the words “dark clouds”, two lines of tears fell down and landed on the clothes of the child in his hands.

Seeing that Li Pingrun was already in tears, Tie Jinjue stopped talking and didn’t continue immediately.

Li Pingrun wiped away his tears and said, “Dark clouds… It was cloudy that day. No wonder, no wonder…”

Tie Jinjue was curious about why he emphasized the word “dark clouds” so much, and asked softly, “What did Li Fangshi think of?”

Li Pingrun was in a state of emotional upheaval at this time. Knowing that it was safe to tell Tie Jinjue, he wanted to speak his mind to him without hesitation, so he said, “Today, on my way out of the practice room, I heard someone say, ‘No wonder your sister died,’ and I felt dark clouds gathering in the sky.”

Tie Jinjue asked: “Who is it? Why do you say such a thing?”

Li Pingrun said: “You didn’t tell me that.”

Hearing this, Tie Jinjue relaxed a little.

Li Pingrun continued, “At that time, I saw a man push another man, and the man who was pushed almost fell down because he was wearing shackles. The man who pushed him shouted that the Blue Armored People were all trash! Then he said, ‘No wonder your sister died,’ and said that the man’s sister was trash, just like him.”

As soon as Tie Jinjue heard this, he knew that it was the Tiecang people who were bullying the Lanjia people. Even though he had seen this kind of thing and much more cruel things, he still felt angry when he heard Li Pingrun say this, but he didn’t show it on his face at all.

He simply said, “You know it’s a sunny day, but you still feel dark clouds gathering? Or is this just you describing your feelings?”

Li Pingrun said, “I do feel dark clouds gathering. Of course, maybe it is because I feel that kind of pain that I feel the dark clouds gathering.” Tie Jinjue asked again, “Did the dark clouds dissipate quickly?”

“No.” Li Pingrun said.

“Are the dark clouds very high above your head?” Tie Jinjue asked.

Li Pingrun replied: “Although the dark clouds were in the sky above my head, I always felt as if they were very close to me. I didn’t want to hear those things anymore, so I walked faster, but I could still feel that the dark clouds that had gathered in the sky had not dispersed. As I walked, I clearly felt that the dark clouds would continue to follow me.”

“When did the dark clouds disperse?” Tie Jinjue asked again.

“After I entered my own room.” Li Pingrun said.

“Have you ever wondered why you no longer felt the dark clouds following you after you entered your room?” Tie Jinjue asked again.

Li Pingrun said, “I have guessed. At first I thought it was because the roof temporarily separated the dark clouds from me, but later I thought the most likely possibility was that there were things related to my sister in my room until now, and maybe the dark clouds ‘saw’ these things and dispersed on their own.”

“Do you think your ability to sense the existence of dark clouds is related to your ability to cast spells?” Tie Jinjue asked.

“Probably… I think it’s probably related.” Li Pingrun replied.

After that, he asked Tie Jinjue, “What did Geng Mi say when he handed Elder Tie the child’s clothes?”
