Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 2883 (Two Thousand Eight Hundred and Eighty Three)

When he stood there, he didn't want to see the "human eye" on the map on the ground right away. He hoped to avoid it, but his peripheral vision still swept to that place. Because it was only his peripheral vision that swept to that place, he still had the impression left by the previous time when he saw it while sitting on the bed, so he easily felt that the "human eye" was still looking at him at this time. If he looked at it seriously, he might feel that it didn't look like a "human eye" at this moment.

When he suddenly remembered that he didn't see any human eyes there last time he looked at it, he felt strange. Curiosity drove him to walk towards the picture and look specifically at the location of the so-called eyes. Only then did he discover that the so-called eyes were actually "formed" after other things he took out of the cabinet fell on the picture.

Just as Tie Wandao squatted down and approached the thing that looked like a waterfall with his hand, thinking that the thing made him mistake it for a human eye, he picked up the thing that fell on the picture and put it back in the cabinet.

Then, Tie Wandao secretly told himself that the shadows in the room were just shadows, don't worry about them, and continue to puzzle the pictures. He then continued to fiddle with the pictures on the ground, overlapping the parts with the same content near the edges of the pictures again and again.

After a while, he pieced all the pictures together to form a large picture. In that large picture, the suspected waterfall did not seem that big.

At this moment, he was sure that the thing that looked like a waterfall was the waterfall in the underground space he had been to. Some things that he could not understand before, he could now understand clearly.

He thought: So this is how these pictures look. Who drew them? Could it be the alchemist who designed the underground space? Were these words on the paper also written by the alchemist? Anyway, these words on the paper with pictures were definitely not written by my father. What do "can" and "cannot" mean? Could it be that when the alchemist was discussing the design of the underground space with my father, he wanted to record which place can be used for what and which place cannot be used for what?
Tie Wandao guessed correctly. Each of those small pictures was drawn by the alchemist who designed the underground space in front of Tie Wandao's father. The reason why the alchemist drew those pictures was to design everything that happened later. At that time, the alchemist was not sure where to set up something, so he discussed with Tie Wandao's father by pointing to various places on the picture. Of course, during the discussion, they also had to test it through practice. After the discussion, although it was not finally decided where to set up something, the alchemist had marked on the paper which places could be set up and which places could not be set up. The places that could definitely be used to set up something were marked "yes" by the alchemist, and the places that could definitely not be used to set up were marked "no" by the alchemist. Some other places were places that were not sure at the time or places where they did not consider setting up anything at all.

The reason why the alchemist did not directly draw a large picture at that time was because he wanted to use magic.

When he was trying to understand the situation in a certain place through rituals, he needed to take out one of the small pictures separately, use the picture to represent the actual place, and perform the rituals while thinking of that actual place in his mind. In this way, he could accurately understand the specific situation of each place and be less likely to make mistakes.
