Under the strange power of the totem warriors, the entire Qingque tribe also went into battle.
The work lasted only two days before it was declared complete.
Among them, it was because he found that there was not enough wood on the way. Yang Cheng urgently mobilized a group of totem warriors to cut down the trees, which delayed some time. Otherwise, one day would be enough!
Now on the excavated foundation on the north side, there is a row of wooden piles about two to three meters above the ground.
Neatly arranged and very beautiful!
It's just that each wooden pile is high and low, very irregular. Yang Cheng can control the depth of them hitting the soil, but he can't control their height on the ground.
After all, the height of each tree is different. In the absence of bronzes, Yang Cheng has no way to make axes, saws and other tools.
It took a lot of effort from the Totem Warrior to break these trees.
After completing the preparatory work such as setting out the nail piles and handling the foundation, start ramming the wall.
Before ramming the soil, you must first dig up the subsoil, that is, soak the prepared soil in water, and then dry it until it is moderately dry and wet (knead it into a ball with your hands and throw it on the ground to completely spread out).
After the soil is wet, it’s time to start erecting the formwork.
For this part, Yang Cheng began to use wooden rafts to make it.
First, let the tribesmen find corresponding branches, and then use vines to connect the branches into wooden rafts.
Then, fill the soil into the formed formwork and start compacting.
To consolidate the wall, it is better to teach Yanhu and the others.
Every once in a while, seven or eight people come out. Each person takes a tamping tool made of stone. In the countryside on earth, this tool is called a hoe. Yang Cheng, who stands at the front, is responsible for controlling the rhythm and taking the lead in singing the chant of tamping the wall. :
"Tamp it down!"
"bump!"
Yanhu and the others hammered down the earth with a hammer!
"Tamp it down!"
"bump!"
The totem warriors hammered down another hammer of dirt!
"Tamp it down!"
"bump!"
…
The totem warriors operated according to the rhythm of the chant, and after each section, they had to remove the formwork and change layers.
And during the process of ramming the wall, in addition to singing chants, Yang Cheng also asked everyone to tell some embarrassing things about others to laugh and liven up the atmosphere.
After one layer of rammed earth, another layer needs to be replaced.
You have to hurry up this time.
Because the soil layer just after ramming will become firm and dry easily.
It is necessary to sprinkle water on the wall after the previous round of rammed soil is completed to increase the viscosity of the soil so that the two walls can be tightly combined.
This job can only be left to Yan Lin, the beast-eared girls, and ordinary tribesmen like Xia.
Because Yanhu and the others, as totem warriors, had to work on ramming earth on the earth wall, they did not have time to carry water.
Yang Cheng directed Yan Lin to fetch water.
Yan Lin responded, but did not move.
Seeing this, Yang Cheng was a little confused, "Yan Lin, what's wrong? Why don't you go get some water?"
Yan Lin grimaced and replied: "Wu, there is no more bamboo bucket."
Yang Cheng wondered: "There are no bamboo barrels anymore? It's impossible. Didn't I ask you to chop a lot of bamboo before?"
"Yes." Yan Lin nodded and said, "But bamboo is too brittle and will break if knocked. Wu, look at the broken bamboo barrels over there."
Yang Cheng looked in the direction of Yan Lin's finger.
A large number of bamboo barrels have been piled up in the distance, each with gaps on top.
Yang Cheng patted his head and forgot that these primitive people were very strong and not careful.
If the bamboo bucket is placed on the ground with great force, it will easily break and create gaps if it hits the rocks.
Once a gap is created, water will slowly flow out. Maybe when the gap is not big, the water flow is very slow, but every time people fill it with water and lift it up, the water in the bamboo bucket becomes much less.
Yang Cheng pondered for a while and quickly thought of a way.
"Well, Yan Lin, go find some vines and a good bamboo bucket. I'll teach you a method."
"Okay, Wu."
Yan Lin ran away in a hurry.
Soon, she came back with a bamboo bucket and a few vines, and she was not the only one who came back. The other tribesmen came over very curiously when they heard that Yang Cheng was going to teach them a method.
Yang Cheng took the bamboo bucket and vines in his hand and demonstrated, "Actually, the method is very simple. The bamboo bucket is easy to break. Don't we just use something to protect it?"
Yang Cheng took the vine and wrapped it around the bamboo bucket, wrapping the whole body and the bottom of the bamboo bucket with vines, so that the bamboo bucket was protected by the vines.
"Try it."
Yang Cheng handed the bamboo bucket in his hand to Yan Lin and asked her to get the bucket of water.
Yan Lin, a girl with animal ears who didn't know how to be gentle, took the bamboo bucket, ran to the water pipe and threw the bamboo bucket to the ground.
After the bamboo bucket was filled with water, he accidentally knocked it on the stone next to it and ran back in a hurry.
After running in front of Yang Cheng, her eyes widened and she looked at the water in the bamboo bucket in surprise.
In the past, only two-thirds of the water in the bamboo bucket was left after returning, but now it is completely full.
“Bamboo buckets hold more water!”
"Just use vines to protect the bamboo barrel?"
"So it's that simple?"
…
Seeing the bamboo bucket full of water, other tribesmen were also extremely surprised, and then without Yang Cheng's instructions, they all consciously wrapped the bamboo bucket with vines.
But Yang Cheng didn't let everyone cover all the buckets with vines.
The vines only serve a protective purpose and will be uneven on the ground.
After Yan Lin and the others went to chop bamboo and make new bamboo barrels, Yang Cheng turned his attention back to the totem warriors and immediately discovered something bad.
The strong physical fitness of the Totem Warriors is more about explosive power.
So after hammering for half an hour, everyone had to stop to drink water and rest.
Yang Cheng frowned a little when he saw this.
To say that the current speed of the Totem Warriors is very good. They can hammer the soil with a one-meter-thick wooden stick for half an hour. On earth, where the average duration per person is three minutes, it is extremely powerful.
But Yang Cheng felt that it was still too slow. If he took a break for half an hour, he would not be able to complete a hundred meters in one day, so he had to think of a way...
Got it!
Yang Cheng's eyes lit up, and he quickly thought of a way. He walked quietly behind Yan Hu, and with a thought, the witchcraft words were constructed in front of him one by one.
After these days of practice, Yang Cheng's construction of witchcraft became faster and faster. In less than five seconds, the witchcraft of the spirit-boosting technique was successfully constructed.
Yan Hu only felt a wave of witchcraft behind him, and before he had time to react, the witchcraft of the spirit-boosting technique was penetrated into his body.
"Well!"
In an instant, Yan Hu’s eyes widened!
