Chapter 1773 (One Thousand Seven Hundred and Seventy-Three) Interruption
"We'll find out just by asking," one of the alchemists said.
There was obvious fear in Hou Jizhuan's eyes, and he said, "No...it doesn't have to be like this."
Hou Jizhuan's reaction made some alchemists feel that what he said was not necessarily the truth. Although they had heard that many people were afraid of Tie Wandao, they had never seen Tie Wandao get angry that day. They didn't know that Hou Jizhuo would be extremely frightened regardless of whether what he told them was true or not, and they didn't know that Tie Wandao had whipped him with a whip.
Another alchemist said: "If you didn't lie, what is there to be afraid of? What are you worried about? You will know if you ask the patriarch if he wants."
Hou Jizhen felt helpless. He had indeed mentioned to Tie Wandao before that he would tell the alchemists that they would be cursed when they entered the gray house before practicing magic in the gray house with other alchemists.
At that time Tie Wandao said: "What? Tell them in advance? What do you think?"
Hou Jizhuan was afraid and said tremblingly: "I...oh...because...because I am an alchemist. Generally speaking, I should tell others about this kind of thing in advance."
Tie Wandao said: "Have you grown a head? This is a curse related to life! Who likes to be cursed with life-related curses? After telling them in advance, if they know that they are going to be cursed, they will not Are you willing to do this anymore? Although I can force them to do it, is the effect of being forced to do it the same as doing it on my own initiative?”
Hou Jizhuan said to Tiewan Dao: "They are also alchemists themselves. If they are cursed, they may be able to try it out."
"How do you know they will try?" Tie Wandao said, "You didn't mention it at all, how could they think of trying? Besides, if any of them really tried it and it worked, you just admit it to them. Isn’t it okay if you cast a curse? If you cast a curse, it’s a curse. There’s no need to deny it.”
Hou Jizhuan said: "They entered..." He originally wanted to tell Tie Wandao that the alchemists might feel something was wrong after entering the gray house. At this time, they might take the initiative to try. However, as soon as he said the word "enter", his words were interrupted by Tie Wandao.
"Stop talking about this! This matter is not over yet! Just don't take the initiative to tell those alchemists to cast a spell on them. Don't do that kind of stupid thing, don't look for trouble! Do as I say. Let's talk about the next question. ." Tie Wandao said.
"But..." Hou Jizhuan originally wanted to continue talking to Tie Wandao, but before he could finish his words, Tie Wandao stared at him with vicious eyes, as if he could swallow him up in one bite.
Hou Jizhuan, who had already been whipped, knew that he could no longer talk to Tie Wandao about this matter, so he asked the next question according to Tie Wandao's wishes.
In fact, because of this incident, Hou Jizhuan had never felt at ease before the alchemists entered the gray house. He was secretly worried that someone would sense something was wrong and find out that he had been cursed, but he could not do anything.
When he heard the alchemist ask him, "Why didn't you tell us directly before that we would be cursed when we came in?" Hou Jizhuan was stunned and his heartbeat immediately accelerated. Then another person said the same thing, which made him feel embarrassed and frightened. Later, other alchemists also spoke out. As an alchemist, he knew that telling others after casting the curse would cause dissatisfaction among fellow alchemists. He was a little at a loss. (End of chapter)
