Chapter 7239 (Seven Thousand Two Hundred and Thirty-Nine) Boiling Water

“My thinking hasn’t changed at all; it’s just abnormal,” the brown-handed man laughed. “Do you know why I say that?”

"Why?" the gray-handed man asked.

“Because you asked me,” the Brown-Handed Man said.

The gray-handed man paused for a moment, then hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but couldn't.

The brown-handed man smiled.

Neither of them spoke immediately.

After a while, the gray-handed man said, "I understand what you mean."

The brown-handed man said, "I said that precisely because it's you."

"What if we change to someone else?" Grayhand asked. "Whether you'll still say the same thing after we change to someone else depends on who it is."

The brown-handed man laughed and said, "Answer me a question first."

"Ask," said the gray-handed man.

"Did you say that on purpose?" the brown-handed man asked. "You're asking me if I would say the same thing if it were someone else, but that depends on who it is."

The gray-handed man asked, "You guessed right."

The brown-handed man laughed, "Haha! Congratulations to me, I guessed right again!"

The gray-handed man laughed and said, "You guessed right, so why are you so excited?"

"You're going to dampen my enthusiasm just because I'm getting a little excited?" the brown-handed man asked.

"Then I won't splash it," said the gray-handed man.

The brown-handed man said, "You've decided not to splash it so quickly?"

“There’s no need to throw cold water on me,” Grayhand said. “Actually, I didn’t mean to discourage you just now; I was just saying it casually.”

“I had thought of that possibility too, and now that you’ve confirmed it, that’s great!” said the Brown-Handed Man.

"You say it's great just because it's casual enough?" the gray-handed man said. "Is that how it is?" The brown-handed man said, "Yes. Let me tell you something else."

"What is it?" the gray-handed man asked.

“I just said, ‘I’m getting so excited, and you’re going to dampen my spirits?’ I just said it casually. I had considered many possibilities, but I just labeled what you said as ‘dampening my spirits,’ which doesn’t make sense,” the brown-handed man laughed.

"Is that all?" Grayhand asked.

“Yes,” the brown-handed man replied.

"Is this even a big deal?" Grayhand asked.

“It’s a big deal, isn’t it? Are small things not a big deal?” the brown-handed man asked.

“Yes,” said the gray-handed man. “You said ‘this is unreasonable,’ but to me, you’re very casual. I should congratulate you.”

"Why are you congratulating me?" the brown-handed man asked.

"At least this time, it doesn't sound like you're pouring cold water on me," said the gray-handed man.

"It doesn't have the chill of cold water, it's even warm," said the brown-handed man.

"Hot air? It sounds like boiling water being poured out," the gray-handed man asked.

"Who said you splashed boiling water?" the brown-handed man said. "I was talking about hot water. How did you manage to switch to boiling water?"

"He's just spinning it on purpose, saying it on purpose, like he's spinning it onto boiling water," the gray-handed man laughed.

The brown-handed man said, "That sounds pretty scary. Pouring cold water on you is fine, it'll just cool you down a bit, but if you poured boiling water on you, what would you get scalded like?"

The gray-handed man laughed and said, "You're showing off your special skills, huh? Boiling water can't do anything to you."

“Special skills, huh? I’ve already spat that out,” said the brown-handed man.

"In my opinion at this moment, spitting it out doesn't necessarily mean that the special ability has completely disappeared," said the Gray-Handed Man.

“You’re being very cautious by emphasizing ‘this moment,’” the Brown-Handed Man said.

The gray-handed man said, "That's right. Putting you aside, let's talk about myself. Before I spat it out, I thought that my special abilities would most likely disappear completely after I spat it out."
