Due to a three-day delay, coupled with Xie Tian's adherence to the strict rule of resting at sunset more rigidly than the witches, on the day of departure for the ancestral witch worship, the ancestral statue was successfully...
Not completed.
"How much longer?" Shi Quan asked with a darkened face.
Xie Tian looked at the ancestral statue and calculated the time: "About a month."
"Are you kidding!" Shi Quan's beard flared up, "We just delayed by three days; why would it take about a month now?"
Xie Tian earnestly said, "Slow work produces fine craftsmanship, Priest, don't worry. I can't speak for other things, but when it comes to the ancestral statue, there's no problem outshining the backward tribes!"
Hou Xi's face twitched, but he said nothing.
Shi Quan was conflicted: "But we have to set off tomorrow."
"Then just set off."
"The ancestral statue..."
Xie Tian pointed at Hou Xi: "Have him carry it and carve it along the way."
Great idea!
