In less than half a day of construction, the two round stone plates were completed. Feng Hou placed a wooden stick across the middle. There was a straw rope tied in the middle of the wooden stick, and Chang was told to pull it on first and run forward as hard as he could. A group of ancestors followed behind to watch the fun. Cangjie hurriedly said to Huangdi: I will name this thing "car". Huang Di thought for a long time and agreed. The hot weather makes human life very inconvenient. There was a couple working diligently in the fields, placing their sleeping baby firmly next to a pile of stones under the shade of a tree, and covering it with palm leaves. Unexpectedly, he was still burned to death by the cruel sun and turned into a lizard and hid in the cracks of the rocks. The father knew this and was very angry. He vowed to shoot down the sun to avenge his child. Like a tiger, Ashima was snatched away. The First Army wears American M-1 steel helmets
