Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 2881 (Two Thousand Eight Hundred and Eighty-One) Jigsaw

Tie Wandao spread all the papers with pictures on the ground, and he stood up to look at them.

He recalled what he had read about maps in the book that Xiang Sibin had given him that day, and recalled that the map was not presented directly in front of people, and required some special processing before it could be understood by people.

At this moment, Tie Wandao wondered: Do these pictures also need to be processed in some way so that people can understand them? Even if this is true, then they must be processed differently from the maps mentioned in the book.

"Deal with it..." Tie Wandao muttered to himself, "Outside the paper..." He repeated what the subordinate who was not good at drawing said that day.

He arranged the pictures on the ground and suddenly thought: the waterfall-like thing looks bigger because it is compared to the paper it is on... If all these papers are put together to form the whole picture, then the waterfall-like thing will not look that big. Is there something outside the picture where the waterfall-like thing is? Is it on another paper?
So, thinking about those things, Tie Wandao started to piece together the pictures.

However, when he was actually putting the pieces together, he felt that judging from the edges of the papers, they did not seem like they could be directly connected.

After looking at it for a while, he suddenly noticed that the content of the rightmost part of one of the pictures was the same as the content of the leftmost part of the other picture.

Tie Wandao suddenly thought: Could it be that the pieces are not made to fit together edge to edge? These two pictures can obviously be connected if the parts with repeated contents are stacked together and overlapped!
As soon as he thought of this, he tried to fight.

When he superimposed the right part of one picture with the left part of another picture, the two pictures did form a new picture.

Tie Wandao couldn't help but sigh: It is true!
He began to look for other pictures to see if he could make the two pictures connect naturally by overlapping part of one picture with part of another picture.

As he searched, he found two more such pictures, and put those two pictures together to form a new picture.

Tie Wandao continued to search, trying to find the missing piece. He felt a little tired, so he sat on the bed for a while.

As he sat there, when he looked toward the area near the waterfall-like thing in the picture, he felt as if there was an eye staring at him in the picture.

He couldn't help but shudder, because he remembered what Li Pingrun had told him before about the alchemist who planned to bury the man alive near the waterfall.

Although he later found out that the man was not buried alive, at that moment, as he sat on the bed and looked at the "human eye" near the thing that looked like a waterfall in the picture, he actually felt that the eyes of a dead person were looking at him with horror.

He suddenly felt a little cold.

He lit another candle.

After lighting the candle and placing it on the table, he glanced at the "human eye" near the thing that looked like a waterfall on the ground, and felt uncomfortable again.

Tie Wandao secretly comforted himself: What's the big deal? It's just a picture!

However, just as he thought of this, he couldn't help but think: Why is there something like a human eye in the picture, why do I feel like it is looking at me? I guess it's because Li Pingrun's previous words about burying the man alive left a deep impression on me, so I feel like it is looking at me, but that's actually nothing!
He suddenly remembered that he didn't see any human eyes there last time he looked there, and he felt even more strange.
