Chapter Fifty-Six: Brother Long's Praise, Bow Making!
"It's about the Heavenly King!"
In the live broadcast room, the names and avatars of the guests are highlighted.
"The official website of Desert Island Survival was refreshed in the middle of the night last night, saying that it was a heavyweight king!
Another highlighted avatar spoke: "Are these live broadcast rooms the unique survival masters?"
"Wake up!"
A dragon-shaped marked avatar: "Wow, I saw the young man from yesterday, who doesn't need stunts, it's Xu Le, right? I want to go to his live broadcast room to have a look." ”
As he spoke, the dragon-shaped avatar clicked on Xu Le's No. 97 live broadcast room.
"Let's go, follow Brother Long!"
......
on the island.
Xu Le was leaning against the fire, baking a blackcurrant branch over the campfire.
This wooden branch is about one meter and two meters, and it is the longer one he collected yesterday.
"A simple roast allows the outer skin of the bow material to dry and make it easy to peel off for a while. ”
"After drying the rind, you can pause and let further drying take place later. ”
When the bark on the surface of the blackcurrant branch began to beep, Xu Le removed the branch.
He pressed the root of the branch against the ground and stood it up.
Then gently grasp the tip of the branch with your hand and pull it closer to your side.
The branches bent and slid back and forth a few times before settling down.
Barrage in the live broadcast room——
"Big Brother Xu Le...... Is this to press the bow like this...... Isn't it a bit time-consuming......"
"[Brother Long]: Hello friends in the live broadcast room. ”
"Wow, it's Big Brother Long, can Brother Long understand this operation of Big Brother Xu Le?"
"[Brother Long]: He's looking for the natural curvature of wood. The natural curvature was determined, and the arched back was on this side where it was now bent. ”
"[Brother Long]: When I was young, I had to make my own props, and these small details were easy to ignore. ”
"[Brother Long]: The young man is very level, this craft, you can enter my Long family class to be responsible for props. ”
"[Brother Long]: Hahaha, the program team asked me to pay attention to other live broadcast rooms, goodbye, everyone. ”
"Six-six-six! Boss Xu Le is being favored by Brother Long!"
"The Longjia class is one of the best martial arts crews at home and abroad, and the anchor has ascended to the sky in one step. ”
"Enter the Long family class! Even if Xu Le's survival on the desert island fails, he will make a lot of money!"
"[Be Your Cat]: Little Brother Xu Le can't fail!"
"[Be your cat] Reward Yacht X3!"
[The popularity value of the current live broadcast room: 330000!]
[Awakened New Skill: Climbing Lv.1!]
Xu Le almost popped out the blackcurrant branch in his hand.
What's going on...... I just process a piece of wood casually, why did my popularity suddenly rise by more than 100,000......
Is it because of my charm...... No...... An old man is like a glass of wine that needs to be savored......
Bow making has just begun, so it won't make the Shock Department go online now......
Maybe it's some recommendation from the program group again...... Xu Le quickly adjusted his mentality.
Lin Xihan asked with some concern, "What's wrong, I'm too tired in the morning?"
"Whew...... Maybe it was pinched by you, and your arm is a little weak......" Xu Le said casually.
"Ah......" Lin Xihan's face was entangled, "I'm sorry......"
Don't do this...... I'm embarrassed if you're so bluffing......
"No, I didn't use it!"
Lin Xihan reacted, raised his eyebrows, and glared at Xu Le.
"Friends in the live broadcast room, after we determine the curvature of the bow, we can start to modify the shape. ”
Xu Le changed the subject as he pretended that nothing had happened.
"Determine the center point of the bow first, which is where the handle will be at that time. ”
"...... here"
Xu Le carved a mark on the middle of the branch.
Then use a stone knife to gently scrape off the dried skin.
Lin Xihan supported his head with one hand and watched the stone knife in Xu Le's hand fly up and down.
Your hands are steady...... Tsundere's long legs praised in his heart.
When the epidermis is scraped clean, dense branches are exposed.
Xu Le changed from scraping to cutting, and strands of sawdust with the thickness of a hair fell to the ground.
The branches, which are almost straight and rotated evenly while scraping, are marked with a center point as the axis of symmetry, and gradually take on the rudiments of a bow body.
The center point is the thickest, and it gradually narrows along the two segments, showing a conical shape.
Xu Le held the end of the bow with one hand and leaned in front of the camera.
"If the bow is shaped like this, it's okay. ”
"When viewed from one end, it's a well-shaped point with no unnecessary bending. ”
"If you pinch the ends like this and bend them slightly, you will have an even arc. ”
"Finally—Shuping!"
Keep swinging the stone knives!
On the conical bow, sawdust continued to fall.
In a short time, the bow is completed!
It's just a very ordinary blackcurrant branch, and after Xu Le's processing, it presents a very beautiful shape.
Barrage –
"It's so beautiful! What kind of bow is this, just this bow body, it can be used as a handicraft, right?"
"I'm looking forward to what this bow will look like when it is formed......
Xu Le dried the bow at a distance from the campfire, and then took the dried python tendons—
"Next, tanning the bowstring!"
