Chapter 62
Our country folk's shovel handles and pickaxe handles are all made of this kind of wood, so they'll be fine."
I took a deep breath and quickly stepped aside.
"Maybe I'm overthinking it, but everyone should be careful. People carrying logs must pay attention. If an accident occurs, use logs for support as soon as possible.
It can neither let the altar fall to the ground nor hurt anyone.
Everyone, be careful and let’s go!”
Following my order, eight villagers put their arms on their shoulders and let out a shout.
I heard a rattling sound from the ropes and wooden poles, and suddenly the heavy altar was lifted upright from the ground.
Several people's cheeks turned red and dark from suppressing their emotions and they began to walk towards the outside of the mountain col.
"Brother Heizi, this altar doesn't look big, why is it so heavy?"
The dark-skinned man also had veins bulging on his forehead. He had only walked less than ten meters and was already sweating profusely.
"Talk less and save energy. From now on, follow my orders and change people every fifty meters. When you reach an open area, rest on the log."
Everyone walked tremblingly towards the outside of the mountain col. It was originally planned to change people every 50 meters.
But in the end, after walking less than thirty meters, several people couldn't bear it any longer, so they had no choice but to replace them in advance.
I squinted my eyes, gently brushed the willow leaves over my eyelids, and looked towards the altar.
Above the altar were two illusory monster dragons, which were the two monster dragons that had been eliminated.
They hold grudges after death and are unwilling to enter reincarnation, and are creating obstacles for everyone.
At this time, they are neither demons nor souls, just a lingering resentment.
Although I knew they were causing trouble, I couldn't do anything about it.
If I tell the truth, it will only increase people’s panic.ωωw..net
In fact, they no longer have any attack power. As long as everyone can safely transport the altar to the altar at the mouth of Daxigou, the resentment of these two monster dragons will disappear.
"If I had known that this shrine was so heavy, I should have called more people."
"What's the use of talking about it now? It's so far away from the village, so there's no time to call for help.
Besides, most of the people in our village work outside all year round, so where can we find so many young and middle-aged labor force to drive?"
Because the weight of this altar was beyond everyone's imagination, the two groups of people could not rest at all, and their physical strength was exhausted at an alarming rate.
At the beginning, I could still hold on for about thirty meters, but later I could only change it every twenty meters.
But this is completely a vicious cycle. The more frequent the rotation, the faster the physical strength will be exhausted.
If this continues, it will be difficult for everyone to reach the open area where they originally planned to rest.
"Everyone, hold on, try to change every 30 meters. When we reach the open space in front, place the altar on the log, and everyone can have a good rest and drink water.
Inviting the Dragon King this time is related to the future Feng Shui fortune of Xiaolinhe Village. Everyone must bite the bullet and get over it.
We have killed those two monster dragons, so there is no reason why we can't even lift a shrine out."
I quickly stood aside to cheer everyone up and finally stabilized everyone's mentality.
The group of people gritted their teeth and walked more than two miles before finally seeing a flat and open land. This was also the only place in the mountain col where the altar could be parked.
"Come on everyone, there are only the last twenty meters before you can rest."
Everyone was overjoyed, hehehehehehe, moving forward slowly.
Seeing that the four people in front had already entered the open space, a junior student who was approaching behind suddenly had his eyes blurred and fainted towards the grass next to him.
Without one person to share the burden, the altar suddenly began to tilt.
I quickly took out a paper talisman from my pocket and threw it into the air.
"Urgent like a law, get up."
Several paper figures flew around and landed under the altar, forcibly pushing up the tilted altar.
My entire face turned livid, as if a thousand kilograms of weight were weighing on me.
"Quick, get on the log and put the altar in place."
At this time, the substitute people nearby had already stepped forward to carry the pole, and several people tremblingly placed the altar on the log.
I took two steps back, and the talisman fell to the ground immediately.
Fortunately, it was a near miss and the altar did not fall to the ground.
More than a dozen villagers lay sprawled on the ground, their faces red and their ears red, as if their bodies had been washed by water.
"Uncle Guangping, let's all rest first. You can go back to the village now. Whether it's from our own village or from other villages, we must find another group of people for rotation."
Uncle Guangping nodded and quickly ran towards the village.
After about half an hour, Uncle Guangping came back with about ten people.
"Shouyi, these are comrades from the town's engineering team. I asked them to come over and help."
Only then did I feel relieved. Now there were twice as many people making trouble. Even if the two monster dragons continued to make trouble, it would not have much impact.
When the two monster dragons on the altar saw so many people coming, they glared at me viciously, and their illusory figures immediately dissipated.
It seems that they have given up and there won't be any problems on the way forward.
Sure enough, after the resentment of the two monster dragons dissipated, the villagers lifted the stone platform again.
"This is not as serious as you say!"
"It's just such a thing. Sixteen of you can't carry it out. It's so big in vain."
Seeing the relaxed expressions of the engineering team members, the original villagers all had surprised expressions on their faces.
"Stop firing cannons there. If you have the ability, try lifting it fifty meters first."
"Tch, with this weight, a few brothers can lift it, let alone 50 meters, 500 meters."
At first, the villagers just thought they were bragging, but the engineering team carried the altar a mile away in one go, which deeply shocked the villagers.
"What's wrong with him? How could this happen? Come on, let's replace him."
The villagers then exchanged people with a group of engineering team members. As soon as the pole was on their shoulders, the villagers felt something was wrong.
"Brother Heizi, do you feel that the altar seems to have become lighter?"
"It has become lighter. I wonder if what we just lifted was the same thing."
The villagers were full of doubts, and I did not tell them the truth about their doubts.
I carried the altar to the entrance of Daxigou in one breath and put it down according to the position I had marked in advance.
Now that the location of the altar has been placed, all we need to do is re-sculpt the statue around the altar and build the Dragon King Temple according to the altar.
In the next two days, Uncle Guangping found a clay sculpture master in the town to build a statue for the Dragon King Temple, and the town's engineering team worked overtime to build the temple.
