Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 2688 (Two Thousand Six Hundred and Eighty-eight) Midway

"That's what I saw. Is this normal?" Tie Wandao asked.

"Normal." Li Pingrun said.

"Could this also be designed by the alchemist from before?" Tie Wandao asked again.

Li Pingrun said, "I don't know. I guess that according to the design of the alchemist, the scene that the person whose mind was controlled would see while sitting on this raft would not be blurry."

Tie Wandao asked again: "What will it be like?"

Li Pingrun said: "I don't know now."

Tie Wandao asked: "Can we know it by performing a ritual?"

"Yes." Li Pingrun replied.

"Then you perform the ritual." Tie Wandao said.

"I can't perform any magic while the raft is moving, otherwise it will cause danger." Li Pingrun said.

Tie Wandao suddenly realized that it was a bit abnormal for him to do this, and felt that it was not appropriate for him to do the magic, but he could not help but said to Li Pingrun: "When can you do the magic?"

"We have to wait until the raft stops by itself." said Li Pingrun.

"Can we just perform the ritual on the raft after we stop?" Tie Wandao asked again.

"Yes." Li Pingrun said.

"What if it didn't stop by itself, but you were the one who stopped it?" Tie Wandao asked.

Li Pingrun said: "Then I can't perform the ritual on the raft, otherwise it will be dangerous."

"When will the raft stop by itself?" Tie Wandao asked. "When it reaches the place we want to go to," Li Pingrun said.

"If people don't actively ask it to stop, it will not stop midway?" Tie Wandao asked again.

Li Pingrun replied: "Yes, it will keep moving until it reaches the end."

"According to what you said, you can only perform the ritual when the raft reaches the end. Only then can I understand what I asked you just now?" Tie Wandao asked.

"That's right." Li Pingrun replied.

Tie Wandao looked helpless and asked, "How far is it?"

"It should be soon." Li Pingrun replied.

"Can we only wait here?" Tie Wandao asked again.

"That's right." Li Pingrun said. He was worried that Tie Wandao would get angry, and he thought that sitting on this raft was actually a very comfortable thing. He wanted to make Tie Wandao feel better by saying this, so he asked: "Chief, how do you feel about sitting on this raft?"

"It's quite comfortable." Tie Wandao replied, "How about you?"

"Me too." Li Pingrun said, "In fact, staying on this raft is a rare experience. Most people will never have the chance to enjoy this feeling in their lifetime. When the raft reaches the end and we get off the raft, this feeling will disappear. I think it's a good idea to cherish this experience and enjoy it."

Tie Wandao thought that what Li Pingrun said made sense. Although he also felt that sitting on this raft at the moment was a great enjoyment, he did not want to agree with what Li Pingrun said.

He said, "We have to stay on this raft for such a long time to go there. Whether we enjoy it or not, we have to stay on it. During the raft's journey, even if we don't plan to continue enjoying this feeling, what can we do? Let it stop halfway? Will it be useful? Don't we have to continue moving forward in a while? Don't we still have to 'enjoy' it in a while?"

Li Pingrun felt a little embarrassed, but just smiled and said, "That's right."

Tie Wandao then realized that he could have spoken differently and felt again that he was not normal. He knew that it was not too late to change his attitude and go along with what Li Pingrun said, which might make him appear a little more normal, but he felt that this would not give him enough face, so he did not say anything.
