Chapter 857: Wooden Kites (2)

The two of them looked at the wooden kite fragments at the same time. A chill rose from the bottom of their feet.

Shen Yijia’s face turned red from their gazes. “This is just a model. Besides, rocks can’t pull the axle. Without the axle to drive the wooden wings, the wooden kite will naturally fall.”

“At least it can fly, right?” She looked at Song Jingchen. “As long as we make two large ones, it can definitely fly us over.”

Thirty Thousand and You Yi also turned to look at Song Jingchen and shook their heads. n(/o.-V/(e--l--B-(1-(n

“Young Master, please don’t agree.” they thought.

Song Jingchen pursed his lips and walked to the place where the wooden kite had fallen. He squatted down and observed carefully before realizing that the broken parts were all splices.

“We were in too much of a hurry on the way, so the interface wasn’t completed.” Shen Yijia leaned over and explained.

Actually, no matter how good the interface was, it would inevitably break if it fell from a high altitude.

However, just as Shen Yijia had said, as long as the wooden wings continued to flap, they would not suddenly fall.

The three of them were waiting for him to make a decision. Song Jingchen calmly reassembled the wooden kite and smiled. “Okay.”

Shen Yijia was immediately happy to receive her beautiful husband’s approval.

On the other hand, Thirty Thousand and You Yi were a little flustered.

The wooden kite could fly from the ground with a rock. If she wanted it to carry a person’s weight, she had to do something else.

Song Jingchen looked at the mountaintop closest to them. The materials used to make the wooden kite could be found on the spot.

After deciding to go up the mountain, the few of them quickly filled their stomachs and mounted their horses again.

Less than half an hour after entering the forest, the howls of wild beasts sounded all around. The horses instinctively sensed danger and became a little restless. Fortunately, they were all good horses picked out from the military camp by Xuanyuan Ziming. After strict training, they did not abandon their masters or refuse to advance.

You Yi dealt with the poisonous snakes and ferocious beasts before they could approach.

The few of them found a suitable empty space at the top of the mountain and stopped. Without resting much, they began to get busy.

They searched for suitable dry wood, polished it, and made the parts. It took the four of them two days to make a huge wooden kite.

Compared to the model, Shen Yijia used the wild boar skin to add a safety buckle to it. She also added a small axle on the original axle to support it. This way, she could make the wooden wings flap without using too much strength.

Looking at the wooden kite, who was even bigger than him, Thirty Thousand reached out and touched it. He whispered in You Yi’s ear, “Can this thing really bring us to fly in the sky?”

Actually, he was more interested in asking what the chances of survival were if they fell from a high altitude.

If he died, would anyone come to collect his corpse?

On second thought, even if there was, it would probably be very difficult to find his body. He had yet to bid farewell to MO Yuan.

You Yi rolled his eyes, his fingers trembling slightly under his sleeves.

Compared to the two of them, who looked calm on the surface but were flustered on the inside, Shen Yijia’s eyes were sparkling.

The biggest thing she had made in the past was her beautiful husband’s wheelchair. This felt too fulfilling.

She went forward eagerly. “Hubby, I’ll try it first.”

As she spoke, she was about to pull the safety catch when Song Jingchen grabbed her hand.

“I’ll go,” he said.

“No, you’re not familiar with this thing. I’ll go.”

She was actually very confident in what she had made, but if Song Jingchen was the guinea pig, she inexplicably became worried.

“This is the mechanism to pull the axle. This is used to change the direction of the wooden wings, and this is used to land. If the wind is too strong, pull this and put away a portion of the wooden wings to reduce the wind surface...” Song Jingchen pointed at the mechanisms on the wooden kite one by one. In the end, he asked, “Am I right?”

Shen Yijia thought to herself, “He got it right. I want to kneel down to him.”

It was indeed her husband. He remembered everything after hearing it once.

However.

“I still can’t. I made this thing. I have to be the first to fly.”

Song Jingchen sighed. “Jiajia, you have to listen to me.”

“You have to listen to Ah Chen.” Ji Luo’s words suddenly sounded in her mind.

Shen Yijia was speechless.

“Then, why don’t the two of us go together?” She took a step back. In order to save time, there were already two seats in the wooden kite.

Of course, one could also fly solo.

Song Jingchen rubbed her head and pulled her away from the wooden kite.

Absolutely. Not.

“Hubby.” Shen Yijia panicked.

Song Jingchen leaned down and kissed her forehead. “I believe in you. You should believe in me too.”

Shen Yijia was successfully tricked by him. Her beautiful husband had decided to use the wooden kite because he believed in her. Similarly, she had to believe that her beautiful husband had asked him to fly alone. Was that what he meant?

Thirty Thousand thought, “Master is getting more and more unreasonable.

They’re still watching.”

“Isn’t that right, You Yi?” he thought.

He looked at You Yi.

Unexpectedly, You Yi turned into a black shadow in his eyes. With a crack, the wooden kite set off.

‘You Yi!”

“You Yi!”

Song Jingchen and Shen Yijia were shocked and ran over to stop him at the same time. However, it happened so suddenly, and You Yi was too fast. Their hands only touched the tip of the wooden kite’s tail, and they almost fell off the cliff due to inertia.

The wooden kite descended quickly, then flapped its wooden wings and flew out with You Yi.

Shen Yijia stomped her feet in anger, but there was nothing she could do. She could only roar in the direction You Yi had flown out. “You Yi, come back here. Do you know how to turn and land?”

You Yi, who had been relieved because the wooden kite had successfully flown up, said in surprise, “Miss, don’t worry. I’ll be back soon.”

Then, Shen Yijia and the others saw the kite fall, retract its wings, and fly around in the air like a drunk person was operating it.

Shen Yijia thought to herself, “Someone like you has nothing to do with me even if you die.”

Song Jingchen was speechless.

Thirty Thousand thought, “Brother, you’re really brave.”

At Nanling Pass, the Wu Kingdom’s army attacked the city more and more frequently. In just four days, they launched no less than ten attacks.

There were traces of black gunpowder everywhere in the pass. On the walls and the ground, blood visible to the naked eye indicated that many more soldiers had lost their lives..
