"Tell me, what's going on?" Cang Shi stared at Yan Lin and the others with a serious face.
"It's that wheel!" Yan Lin said: "Wu has been making that wheel these days..."
"Wait, what did you say, wheels? What wheels?"
Cangshi looked confused and interrupted Yan Lin.
Yan Lin said: "Well...it's the treasure that Wu said he would make these days. It's called a wheel."
Everyone was stunned, and Cangshi continued: "Keep talking."
Yan Lin said angrily: "It's that wheel that keeps Wu from resting and working on it very late every day. Last night, I secretly went to see it, and Wu was still in his room, drawing pictures of the wheel."
Xingye nodded and said in agreement: "Yes, Wu is like a wheel every day. He doesn't eat or sleep. He refuses to rest even when we ask him to."
At this time, Lulu, who had been silent until now, also spoke up: "That's why Wu is like this now. However, he is either sick or a little tired."
Lulu was more thoughtful and saw the key points of everyone's concerns.
After hearing what Lulu said, I knew that Yang Cheng was not sick, but that he didn't have a good rest.
Yanhu, Cangshi and others immediately breathed a sigh of relief. They were most afraid that Wu was sick, because sickness could not be cured by healing techniques.
When they were in the ancestral land, someone in the Qingque tribe fell ill, and their predecessors could not do anything to treat the sick tribesman, and the witchcraft treatment was useless, and they could only let the tribesman fend for himself.
Although Yang Cheng was gifted with witchcraft inheritance and became an intermediate witch in such a short time, there was nothing he could do about his illness.
As for the witches, there is nothing they can do, and the totem warriors like them are even more helpless.
After Yan Hu breathed a sigh of relief, he frowned again, shook his head and said, "It won't work if this continues. If Wu is always tired, he might also get sick."
Cangshi said: "What should we do? Cangshi, why don't you go and talk about it?"
"Say?" Yanhu shook his head and said, "Yanhu, you go ahead. I don't dare to talk to Wu in person."
Yang Cheng has been a shaman in the Qingque tribe for a long time. The witchcraft power he displayed, various powerful witchcrafts, and wisps of magic have brought an endangered Qingque tribe to the wilderness. It's a powerful tribe.
Therefore, he has a high prestige in the Qingque tribe, and it's okay to joke with him on weekdays, but when it comes to "treasure", no one dares to advise him.
Cangshi shrugged: "You don't dare, so I dare? The witches don't listen to what the witches say, so what's the use if we go and talk."
Yan Hu said anxiously: "What should we do? We can't watch the witch ruin our bodies and get sick, right?"
"Don't worry, let me think about it."
Cang Shi supported his head with his hands and pondered on the spot.
After a while, Yanhu became impatient and urged: "Cangshi, have you figured it out?"
"No." Cangshi replied honestly.
"ah?"
Everyone fell down.
Yanhu complained: "You haven't figured it out, why are you holding your head up while imitating witchcraft?"
Cangshi said helplessly: "How about you think about it?"
Yan Hu: "...it's up to you to think about it."
Cangshi thought for a while, and finally shook his head and said: "Forget it, let's go over tomorrow to see the situation, see what kind of thing this treasure called the wheel is, and then see how to persuade the witch."
After everyone thought about it, they had no choice but to do this.
*****
The next day.
Yang Cheng got up early and he was very excited today.
If nothing else goes wrong, as long as the last two wooden strips are fired successfully and the wooden strips are spliced together, a wheel will be ready.
"Come on, come on, get your hands dirty. Yan Lin, Xing, you should do as you did yesterday. First split the wood into strips. Lulu, you can trim it. I'll prepare the fire technique first."
Arriving at the open space, Yang Cheng immediately called on the three beast-eared girls to start work, completely unaware of the worry in their eyes.
Seeing Yang Cheng so excited, he seemed stunned.
Yan Lin and the others looked at each other with worry that could not be hidden in their eyes. However, they did not dare to stop him for fear of irritating Wu and making his situation worse.
With the hard work of several people, the last two wooden strips were fired.
Yang Cheng asked Lulu to take the drill hole made of copper and drill holes in each wooden strip according to the marks left in advance.
These holes are for one end of the spoke to fit into.
This step is not difficult, but it requires a lot of strength. Even though Lulu is already an eighth-grade totem warrior, after drilling four or five holes, it was a bit too much, and her right arm became a little sore.
Yang Cheng frowned slightly when he saw this.
Before there was an electric drill, drilling a hole more than fifteen centimeters deep by hand would indeed consume a lot of energy.
Yang Cheng raised his head and looked at Yan Lin and Xing with wide eyes on the other side.
He hesitated whether to let Yan Lin and Xing come over to replace Lulu, but he was worried that these two careless guys would drill the hole crookedly or make it too big.
In this case, the wood strips will have to be fired again.
But if the two of them are not called, there will be no one elsewhere.
While Yang Cheng was hesitating, the sound of footsteps came.
Yang Cheng took a look and saw that several totem warriors, Yanhu, Cangshi, and Hongya, were coming.
"Hey, you guys came just in time." Yang Cheng said with joy on his face, "Come over quickly and help."
Yanhu and Cangshi looked at each other, with deep worry in their eyes.
Sure enough, something is wrong with Wu!
If we usually meet a few of them, instead of hunting ferocious beasts, they gather together in front of the witch, the witch will definitely ask what's the matter.
However, Wu did not ask any questions now and directly greeted them.
This isn't something wrong, what else could it be...
"Hey, why are you still standing there? Come quickly and help."
Yang Cheng's shout came again, and several people did not dare to neglect and trotted up to Yang Cheng.
"Wu, what do you need us to do?" Cang Shi asked.
"What I want you to do is very simple. Have you seen these wooden strips? I have marked them. You..."
Yang Cheng pointed to the wooden strips and started talking to Yanhu and the others.
With Yanhu and the others here, the matter of drilling holes in the wooden strips will be much easier.
Yanhu and the others are all fifth- and sixth-grade totem warriors, and they often hunt. They have strong fighting skills and can control the strength of their opponents very steadily.
They will not be careless and unable to control the size and position of the holes like Yan Lin and Xing.
Yanhu and the others didn't talk nonsense. Although they were wondering why they drilled holes in the wooden strips, they could just do as Wu said.
Soon, corresponding holes were drilled into each of the twelve wooden bars.
After drilling the holes, the next thing is easy.
Yang Cheng directed Yanhu and the others to form a rim from twelve wooden strips and install them on the spokes.
