Chapter 2517 (Two Thousand Five Hundred and Seventeen) Three Articles
Li Pingrun followed the two of them and recalled what happened that day. He thought: We will arrive at the door in a while. I started from that place and recalled as I walked. I had a deep impression on the previous journey. What happened next... …Maybe I’ll understand it once I get there.
Tie Wandao and Tie Jinjue brought Li Pingrun to the door Li Pingrun mentioned.
Tie Wandao asked Li Pingrun: "Where did you start walking?"
Li Pingrun pointed to a small road and said, "I started walking from this road."
"Then take us away." Tie Wandao said.
"Yes." Li Pingrun said.
The three of them set foot on the path that Li Pingrun had taken before, and walked in the direction in which Li Pingrun came.
Li Pingrun didn't stop during the first section of the road. Even when he encountered a fork in the road and there were multiple paths to choose from, Li Pingrun quickly chose one of them.
Tie Jinjue thought: It was indeed different to walk in the direction he came from. At least until now, Li Fangshi seemed to remember very clearly how he walked today.
Tie Wandao was still relatively satisfied at this time and thought to himself: It seems that it is right to start walking again. Although it took some time to walk from the place just now to the gate of Tiecangting, we are walking fast now. Tie Wandao and I are walking very fast. The elder finally no longer had to wait for Li Pingrun to explore the way.
The three of them walked together for a while, and Li Pingrun still knew exactly how to go.
Tie Jinjue and Tie Wandao always talked about irrelevant things while walking.
Tie Wandao felt that it had been a while since the two of them understood the situation through talking to Li Pingrun, so he asked him: "Are you definitely taking the same path you took when you came here?"
Li Pingrun nodded and said, "Definitely."
"Is the road you have walked so far the same one you took before you got lost?" Tie Wandao asked again.
"Yes." Li Pingrun replied.
"Where did you probably get lost? Do you have any impression?" Tie Wandao asked.
Li Pingrun said: "I have no impression. I remember the roads I walked just now quite clearly."
Tie Wandao talked to Tie Jinjue again. When the three of them reached the next fork in the road, Li Pingrun stopped.
"What's going on?" Tie Wandao asked, "Why did you stop again?"
Li Pingrun said: "I'm worried that I'm going in the wrong direction."
"There are only three roads here, and the other two roads cannot lead to Hongfeng Palace at all. What do you have to worry about?"
Li Pingrun asked: "Clan Chief, which way can lead to Hongfeng Hall?"
Tiewan Dao pointed at the middle one and said, "If you go straight along the other two roads, you will definitely not be able to go directly to Hongfeng Hall. Those two roads are winding and lead to other places."
Li Pingrun recalled it and felt that he had indeed taken the middle path before, so he said to Tie Wandao: "Thank you, patriarch, for reminding me!"
The three of them walked forward along the middle road.
After walking for a while, the three of them came to a fork in the road again, and Li Pingrun stopped again.
"Why did you stop again?" Tie Wandao asked, "You don't know which way to go?"
"Yes, patriarch." Li Pingrun said.
"You want me to remind you again, don't you?" Tie Wandao said.
"It would be better if I could get a hint." Li Pingrun said.
Tiewan Dao said: "How should I remind you this time?"
Li Pingrun said: "There are three more roads here. I want to know which of them can lead to Hongfeng Palace."
Tiewan Dao said: "If it would be useful to tell you which one can lead to Hongfeng Palace, I won't say 'How should I remind you this time?'"
