Chapter 1764 - 1759: An Incredible Scene
Seeing them silent, Cao Meng felt that they agreed with him!
With a chuckle, Cao Meng arrogantly spoke, "Alright, enough nonsense, how’s the wooden boat preparation going?"
"It’s already prepared!"
They quickly responded after glancing at Cao Meng.
Knowing they’d have to cross the lake to reach the island, they had earlier prepared a brand-new wooden boat.
"Since it’s ready, let’s not waste time, let’s head out!"
Looking at the eager Cao Meng, they spoke again!
"Family Head, it’s really not a good idea to head out directly like this, that Lake Heart Island seems a bit dangerous!"
"Exactly! There might be some unknown danger there, barging in could really cause problems."
Earlier, they had carefully observed the environment here!
They felt this persistent fog wasn’t simple...
So they really didn’t want to rush over recklessly.
"Why did I choose you two useless clowns to come with me before! You’re really useless clowns!"
Giving them a look, Cao Meng shouted furiously...
Previously, he planned to come here to deal with Lin Ya and the others.
He knew coming alone would be too weak, so he picked two fairly strong individuals from his family to join him.
He really thought having them with him would be much better.
But now, he found he might have been too optimistic before.
They completely turned out to be useless...
Really!
Not only did they fail to help, but they kept dragging him down.
Being scolded like this, they felt a bit awkward and frustrated...
Awkwardly glancing at each other, they started finding excuses, "Family Head, we were just worried about you!"
"Yes, Family Head, honestly, it doesn’t matter to us, but your life is precious, if anything happens to you, it wouldn’t be good, right!"
Hearing their nonsense, Cao Meng frowned, "Stop with the nonsense, I’ll give you two choices now, first is to accompany me, second is to leave now and never appear in front of me again, choose for yourselves."
For them, Cao Meng had lost patience, so he directly asked them to make a choice.
"Family Head, we’ll choose the first one!"
"Yes!"
Knowing they couldn’t just leave, they reluctantly chose the first option...
After hearing their choice, he smiled and calmly said, "That’s more like it! Alright, cut the nonsense, get the boat ready, let’s set off!"
"Yes!"
They glanced at each other and nodded reluctantly...
...
"How is it? Does it feel like it’s completely renewed?"
On the island, after pasting the last piece of Submerged Pine onto the small boat, Xiaobei softly spoke.
"Indeed!"
Everyone nodded quickly...
Because everything was clear now, it indeed felt completely renewed.
"The lifespan of Submerged Pine is a hundred years, so you don’t have to worry about anything for a long time now!"
Speaking, Xiaobei quickly picked it up.
The next moment, under everyone’s gaze, Xiaobei carefully placed it in the water.
"This... after it’s placed in the water, the surface will probably freeze, right!"
Thinking it was made entirely of chilly Submerged Pine, they murmured anxiously.
Xiaobei heard their anxious words but didn’t intend to explain, because Xiaobei knew all mysteries would soon be revealed.
...
The small boat made of Submerged Pine in the water started sinking slowly...
As it sank, a trace of cold air emerged...
But they didn’t freeze the surrounding water surface, dissipating into the air.
"It didn’t freeze, but it’s about to sink to the bottom!"
Seeing two-thirds of it already submerged, everyone completely lost faith in it.
Xiaobei saw their furrowed brows and did not explain, just quietly watching it sink bit by bit.
After several dozen seconds, it disappeared completely...
"Xiaobei, what’s going on? Did it fail?"
Lin Ya glanced at the lake surface that had returned to calm and spoke curiously.
Upon Lin Ya’s inquiry, Jing and others also looked at Xiaobei.
They all wanted to know what was going on...
Xiaobei glanced at Lin Ya and said, "Don’t rush, a miracle will soon appear."
"A miracle?"
They expressed astonishment...
At this moment, one of them suddenly shouted, "Oh my, look quickly!"
Upon hearing such an urgent shout, everyone immediately looked at her.
She noticed the reaction and quickly continued, "Don’t look at me, I wasn’t asking you to look at me, I was asking you to look at the lake!"
"Lake?"
In amazement, all of them looked at the lake again!
To be precise, they looked at the spot where the small boat sank earlier.
At first, they didn’t see anything, but soon, they saw a glimmer...
"Hmm? Is there something under the lake?"
Seeing that the shimmer was under the water, they curiously squinted.
Soon, they found there was indeed something, and it was about to float up.
"What is it!"
In curiosity, they saw the object floating up.
After seeing its full appearance, they widened their eyes directly.
Because it was the small boat that sank just a while ago...
Lin Ya glanced at the floating boat, then warmly looked at Xiaobei, asking in confusion, "Xiaobei, what’s going on? Didn’t it sink just now?"
"Yes! How did it float up again!"
Everyone was utterly baffled...
Because just a moment ago, it did sink.
Logically, it shouldn’t have floated, but indeed, it did float back up.
Xiaobei knew they would ask, so there was no surprise...
With a calm smile, Xiaobei explained with composure, "Regarding this, it’s actually simple; the Submerged Pine needs to come into contact with water first to exhibit its extraordinary buoyancy."
After speaking, Xiaobei directly jumped onto the brand-new small boat.
Once settled, Xiaobei looked at them, saying, "Alright, who wants to join me, let’s test its buoyancy together!"
"Sure!"
Responding, several quickly jumped onto the small boat...
Those who moved slowly felt a bit frustrated because the boat was already crowded.
"It’s really a bit small!"
Seeing many couldn’t get on, Xiaobei muttered.
Soon, Xiaobei looked at those who couldn’t board and chuckled, "Don’t be frustrated, I’ll find time to make a brand-new boat later, and then everyone can get on!"
