The raft continued to move forward, and after passing through a place that resembled a stone arch, the current began to slow down and there was a sensation as though the water had come to a standstill. Ye Wudao noticed what seemed like a platform ahead and immediately directed Tie Dan to push the raft towards it.
With a clang, the raft trembled a few times then stopped at the edge of the platform. Ye Wudao ignited the torches he had prepared and handed one to Tie Dan, asking him to go up first, then he followed with Zhao Xiaodie. To prevent the raft from being carried away by the current, Ye Wudao also had Tie Dan tie it to a large stone with a rope.
