Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 2687 (Two Thousand Six Hundred and Eighty Seven) Hazy

Li Pingrun wondered what Tie Wandao was thinking when he made such a request, but it was not the first time that Tie Wandao made unnecessary requests, so he no longer found it new. Moreover, he had no choice but to do what Tie Wandao asked him to do, so he first said "yes" and stopped the raft.

Then Li Pingrun said to Tie Wandao: "Chief, I will start rowing in the opposite direction now."

"Come on, let me take a look." Tie Wandao said.

Li Pingrun used the two poles to paddle in opposite directions, but the raft did not move.

Tie Wandao originally did not intend to touch the two poles for fear of danger, but when he saw Li Pingrun move the two poles and there was no sign of danger, he decided to try it himself.

So he stood up and said to Li Pingrun, "Give me the pole, I'll try."

"Yes, clan leader." Li Pingrun said, and then he handed the two poles to Tie Wandao.

After Tie Wandao took the two poles, he stood in a position he thought was appropriate, then rowed with the two poles and found that the raft was indeed not moving.

He began to row in the direction that Li Pingrun had rowed at first, and the raft moved forward.

He stopped the raft, gave two poles to Li Pingrun, asked him to row, and then he sat on the raft.

After Li Pingrun rowed, the raft began to move smoothly and steadily.

Seeing that Li Pingrun had stopped rowing but the raft was still moving, Tie Wandao asked, "Are you performing a magic trick?"

"No." Li Pingrun turned around and said.

"If you don't row, will it continue to move?" Tie Wandao asked. "Yes," Li Pingrun said.

"Why?" Tie Wandao asked, "Is it because the Taoist priest cast a spell here before?"

"Yes." Li Pingrun said.

"Then you should sit down too." Tie Wandao said, "When you stand, I always feel like there is something blocking me in front of me."

"Yes, Patriarch." Li Pingrun agreed and sat on the raft.

[Chapter 266]

The raft was carrying two people and moving in one direction on the very wet soil. Tie Wandao felt very comfortable sitting on the raft. He looked around with the help of the light from the raft and felt that some scenes were becoming more and more blurry, and things farther away could not be seen clearly at all.

Tie Wandao then recalled what he had said to Li Pingrun and some of his own actions. He suddenly felt that something was wrong. He thought: Why did I ask him so many useless questions? He just said that the raft can only move in one direction, and confirmed that it was designed by the Taoist many years ago. Why did I ask him to stop and paddle in the opposite direction, and even asked him to try it himself? What's wrong with me? Is this related to the martial arts I practiced before?
When he thought about how he was not like this before, he felt that he was indeed abnormal, and thought: There shouldn't be anyone around me who noticed my situation, right? I hope I can give the position of clan leader to Hongyan before someone thinks I'm weird.

He didn't know if he would be in the same situation again in a while, and thought it might be hard to avoid, so he said to Li Pingrun: "Don't tell anyone about what happened in the underground space today, understand?"

"I know!" Li Pingrun said, "Even if I hadn't heard what the clan leader said, I definitely wouldn't have said it!"

Tie Wandao felt that the scenery was really hazy, so he asked Li Pingrun: "Can you see the surrounding scenery clearly?"

"I'm not sure." Li Pingrun replied, "It's very vague."
