Chapter 2686 (Two thousand six hundred and eighty-six) On the contrary
"Thank you, patriarch!" Li Pingrun took the pole and said.
"What will happen next?" Tie Wandao asked. He planned to understand it before seeing it so that he could be prepared.
Li Pingrun said: "After the palms of my hands are pressed against the two poles, the raft will emit white light, and the two poles will also emit white light."
"Will it move next?" Tie Wandao asked.
"When I stroke it, it will move." Li Pingrun said.
"What will happen to the wet soil down there?" Tie Wandao asked.
"It won't change." Li Pingrun said.
"Won't it turn into water?" Tie Wandao asked, "This raft just moves on the soil?"
"Yes." Li Pingrun said.
Tie Wandao felt that this underground space had been cast by alchemists many years ago, so there was no need to be too surprised that the raft was moving on such wet soil.
"You start." Tie Wandao said. After saying this, he sat on the raft.
"Is the clan leader sitting still?" Li Pingrun asked.
Tiewan Dao said "hmm" and then said, "Start quickly."
Li Pingrun pressed the palm of his right hand closely to the pole he was holding before, and then pressed the palm of his left hand closely to the pole he took from Tie Wandao.
At this time, the raft suddenly emitted white light, and the two poles also emitted white light.
The smooth thing that glowed white before no longer glowed.
Seeing this change, Tie Wandao immediately said to Li Pingrun, "Wait a moment."
Li Pingrun said "yes" and looked at Tie Wandao, waiting for him to say something.
He pointed to the smooth thing and asked Li Pingrun: "Why did it suddenly turn off? Is there something wrong?"
Li Pingrun said: "Clan leader, please rest assured, it's okay, everything is normal."
Although Tie Wandao felt a little more at ease after hearing this, he was still dissatisfied and said, "Why didn't you tell me just now that the smooth thing would suddenly stop shining?"
Li Pingrun said: "I wasn't sure whether it would turn off or not."
"Didn't you expect that it wouldn't light up?" Tie Wandao asked. "I thought of it," Li Pingrun said, "but the impression was vague, so I didn't tell the clan leader."
"You should tell me!" Tie Wandao said, "You can tell me that the smooth thing may suddenly stop lighting up but you're not sure. Don't you always say you're not sure? You don't have to wait for this. Tell me if you’re sure?”
"Yes." Li Pingrun said, "I'm sorry, I should have said that."
Tiewan Dao said: "Forget it, you can go on to the next step."
"Yes, clan leader." Li Pingrun said.
After saying that, he rowed the pole on the very wet soil, and the raft began to move.
Tie Wandao asked Li Pingrun: "Is the direction correct?"
"Yes." Li Pingrun replied.
"Are you sure about this?" Tie Wandao asked.
Li Pingrun said: "Sure."
Tie Wandao asked again: "Is the previous method certain?"
Li Pingrun said: "Yes, but even if I didn't do anything just now, I can still be sure."
"Why?" Tie Wandao asked curiously.
"Because this raft can only move in one direction." Li Pingrun said.
"Was it designed by that alchemist many years ago?" Tie Wandao asked.
"Exactly." Li Pingrun said.
"What will happen if you paddle in the opposite direction?" Tie Wandao asked.
"Then it won't move." Li Pingrun said.
"Have you tried it?" Tie Wandao asked.
"I haven't tried it," Li Pingrun said, "but you can know how to do it."
Tiewan Dao said: "Pull it in the opposite direction and give it a try."
