Chapter 346: Playing with the Heart, Arrow Feather Quiver!(4k)

Compared with making a bow by hand, the process of sharpening arrows is much simpler.

The jungle on the island lacks everything.

There is no shortage of trees.

As long as you have patience, you will definitely be able to find the right arrowhead.

Carry a hunting bow on your back.

Hand-held stone axe.

After leaving the camp and pacing into the forest, Lu Yu wandered around aimlessly.

Finally, I went around and stopped, and finally stopped in front of a hibiscus tree.

Hibiscus is more than half a man tall.

It is a type of low shrub.

The foliage is sparse.

The branches are covered with various white spots.

It's so dense that it gives me goosebumps.

"Brothers, look what I found. ”

The next second.

After the drone camera focused on the hibiscus, Lu Yu squatted down, and then introduced to the audience:

"This is hibiscus. ”

"Widely distributed in the South American continent and the islands of the Great Plains, it is dense, easy to dry, and quite weighty, this wood seems to be only used as firewood, but in fact, it is not, and it is also a good choice to make arrows. ”

"Until now, some Māori aborigines have used the wood to make arrows for hunting. Before coming to Ollidia, I met with the original indigenous people of Fiji Island and asked them about island survival for the purpose of live broadcasting. ”

"At that time, I saw with my own eyes a Maori man who shot a hare alive with a single shot in the head with such a wooden arrow...... So, don't underestimate it, this tree is very popular among the Maori peopleβ€”"

"Bang, bang, bang!"

The words fell.

Lu Yu immediately picked up the stone axe and chopped it up.

It didn't take long to cut down seven or eight branches of similar size and length.

Then, Lu Yu took out the ropes he had prepared in advance, tied these branches into a bundle, and carried them all back to the camp in one go.

The branches of hibiscus are very straight.

After peeling and polishing, it can be turned into a wooden stick with a little processing, which is definitely a good material for making arrows.

Therefore, as soon as he arrived at the place, Lu Yu was busy again.

The process is still the same old routine.

Peel the skin with a stone knife first.

Then it is sanded with a reef.

Soon, all seven or eight branches were primarily processed into arrows.

Lu Yu took out the stone knife and cut a gap at the end of each arrow that could completely accommodate the bowstring.

Doing so can not only be very effective in preventing arrows from mopping when drawing the bow and archery.

It also helps to bring out the maximum power of the bow and arrow.

Let the arrows you shoot fly faster and farther.

Then.

After changing the tail of the arrow, all that remains is to grind the arrowhead.

Because they did not have the bones and iron tools suitable for making arrowheads.

So Lu Yu could only find another way.

"To increase the lethality of wooden arrows, it's best to use bone and iron arrows, but unfortunately, I don't have either of these materials on hand right now. ”

"So, we'll have to think of something else. ”

As he spoke, he picked up the shaft of the arrow, walked slowly to the campfire and crouched down, and continued:

"So-"

"Under limited conditions, how can we make the arrow exert its due power? In fact, it is not difficult, we can use fire to carbonize the arrow to improve its hardness and sharpness. ”

"After carbonization, the arrows of wooden arrows will become harder and easier to polish, and when there is no suitable arrow to install, the destructive power of non-carbonized arrows will be reduced by at least two notches compared to those that have been carbonized. ”

After sitting on the ground, Lu Yu raised an arrow shaft.

Place on a fire for smoking.

The charcoal fire temperature is very high.

After a short while, the arrows began to glow black and smoke.

Immediately after, more than ten seconds passed.

When the flames completely ignited the arrowhead, Lu Yu immediately blew out the flames and ground them on the reef.

The carbonized hibiscus is easier to grind.

After three or two strokes, the wooden arrow became sharp.

Seeing this, Lu Yu tried it with his thumb.

It wasn't until it felt almost like it was that I picked up the second one, and so on.

Soon, again and again, again and again, it grinded for a while.

Eight arrows, all of which have been crafted.

Listing these arrows in front of him, Lu Yu picked one up casually.

After focusing on the camera, he whispered to the drone:

"Grinding like this, it's basically fine. ”

"Don't think that this is a wooden arrow, just preconceived that the lethality will be greatly reduced, in fact, this is not the case, the carbonized arrow, is not worse than the bone arrow. ”

"I just caught a turkey today, wait for us to get some chicken feathers, make an arrow feather, and then use the rabbit skin that was dried before, sew an arrow bag, and it's basically the same. ”

"But don't worry about these first, try the power of the hunting bow first!"

After speaking, Lu Yu unloaded the hunting bow from his back, picked up an arrow, and came to a place seven or eight meters in front of the thatched hut.

As soon as he was ready to shoot, he drew his bow and arrows.

In front of the camera, Lu Yu stared at the dried fish hanging on the eaves with a pair of eyes.

"Brothers, did you see the first fish dry? Now, imagine it as our prey, andβ€”"

Before he finished speaking, Lu Yu's right hand decisively released the bowstring!

Bang!

In the blink of an eye, the bowstring, which was full of strength, instantly popped out with a wooden arrow.

Towards the first dried fish at the eaves, galloping away.

Shout!

After the sound of breaking the air came.

Then there was another muffled snap!

By the time the audience looked at it again, the sharp wooden arrow was already impartial and hit the fish!

β€œ6666666666!”

"Random archery?"

"Accurate!"

"666, handsome exploded!"

"Damn, this Ash's big move is accurate!"

"That's awesome, isn't it?"

"It's worthy of a man who goes beyond the limit, how can he pee so accurately?"

"Ding! Possessed by Green Arrow!"

"Protect our ADC!"

"Romeo and Chocolate gave the anchor Fish Ball Γ— 9999 - Feather God, don't you have a double row?

"Amorous since ancient times, empty hatred is given to the anchor Super Rocket Γ— 1β€”β€” Jie Nima is not a sniper bow, right?"

"Selling love and giving energy drinks to the anchorΓ— 10 β€”β€” bows and arrows can be taken out with bare hands, it's really hanging!"

Meanwhile.

In addition to Douyu TV, those foreigners in the overseas live broadcast room were all amazed by Lu Yu's skills.

They gave their own gifts.

Looking at the barrage, Lu Yu smiled:

"Brothers, do you see?"

"This is the difference between a wooden bow and a bamboo bow, not only the accuracy is guaranteed, but the power should not be underestimated. ”

"The only flaw is that the piercing power of the arrow is very poor, of course, this is also a matter of no choice, with the current conditions, it is good to be able to reach this level. ”

"If you have the opportunity in the future, let's improve it. ”

Saying that, Lu Yu still felt that it was not enjoyable.

So, he shot all the remaining wooden arrows.

In the end, 7 wooden arrows were hit, and 4 were hit.

I have to say.

The wooden bow is powerful, very strong.

The feel is also very good.

It is by no means comparable to a soft bamboo bow.

"My beautiful hunt is just a semi-finished product made by hand, and it is basically qualified to have this hit rate, and it is more than enough to hunt or something. ”

A homemade recurve wooden bow with bare hands is definitely different from a professional compound recurve bow.

There is no sight.

There are also no arrow side pads.

There are also many disadvantages.

But for Lu Yu, this is not a thing.

Practicality is what counts.

It only takes a few hours to improve your combat effectiveness in an all-round way, and the cost performance is still very high.

……

After experiencing the fun of shooting, Lu Yu became playful.

I picked up all the wooden arrows that were shot out, and started a new round of practice.

Soon, it wasn't half an hour yet.

He had figured out the temper of the wooden bow and was able to use it with ease.

At the same time, archery is also advancing by leaps and bounds.

The hit rate has also reached the level of eight or nine times out of ten.

A rare moment of relaxation.

The dusk of the island is also inadvertently, quietly approaching again.

Looking at the sunset in the sky, Lu Yu measured the time of sunset with his fingers:

"The sun will go down in about an hour, so hurry up and make the arrows and quivers before preparing dinner. ”

Arrow feathers.

It can greatly improve the stability of the arrow.

Right now, there's a lot of turkey feathers in hand.

If you don't use it, it's wasted.

In addition, turkey feathers also happen to be a rare good material for making arrow feathers.

Not only is it hard and not easy to damage, but the weight and quality are also passable.

It can keep the arrow in a good flying condition during the flight.

Soon, with this plan in mind, Lu Yu turned around and went back to the hut and took a lot of feathers and a few straw ropes from the turkey's wings.

Then returned to the fire again.

"The arrow feather, which is the feather that sticks to the end of the shaft, is an indispensable part of the whole arrow. ”

"It acts as a balancing and direction-keeping function, and usually the shape of the arrow is streamlined, which has good aerodynamics to ensure that the arrow can rotate when fired. ”

"You know, if an object is moving at high speed, if it rotates on its own, it can run more stably. ”

As he spoke, Lu Yu had already picked up three feathers and removed half of the feather branches respectively.

Then, take out an arrow, place three feathers with only half a feather evenly at the end of the arrow, and tie it tightly with a straw rope.

"Each wooden arrow, as long as it contains three arrow feathers, is enough, and any more, it is useless. ”

"It's not good, but it's just a snake. ”

Most of the ancient arrows were three feathers.

Four-slice and six-slice, almost none.

More arrow feathers, mostly the product of modern bows and arrows "flying", are really flashy.

After a while, the ten wooden arrows took on a new look, and all of them were tied.

It looks more and more presentable.

The arrow feathers were tied, and there was just some straw rope left at hand.

So Lu Yu took the rabbit skin and sewed a quiver for himself that he could carry.

The rabbit skin quiver is very soft and much lighter than the bamboo tube.

Not only is it easy to carry, but it also reduces the weight.

It is also easy to draw, tie it around the waist, and you can get it when you return to your hand.

In addition, because Lu Yu specially tightened the capsule.

Even if they run, the arrows will stay in their skins and will not fall off.

The arrow feathers were loaded and the quiver was sewn.

Lu Yu put this set of equipment on his body and tried it on.

"Well, pretty much that's pretty much it. ”

"In this way, a set of primitive hunting bows is completed. I believe that with it, our trip to the North Shore will be very smooth...... Phew, at least I'm happy with myself......"

The moment the words fell.

Lu Yu took out a wooden arrow from the quiver, put it on the bow handle, and shot it when it was full.

Sou!

The wooden arrow is in the middle of the red heart.

Pierced into the wooden door of the hut.

……

After sunset.

Before dinner, Lu Yu carried a small pot of bark and went to the stream to get water.

Then I stopped by and checked out another hunting spot.

After arriving at the place, he did not come out as soon as possible.

Instead, he hid in a bush and waited for a while.

After making sure that there was no movement at the trap, I approached and took a look.

Now, half a day has passed.

There were no visible footprints on the ground.

There are five traps, all of which are intact.

It seems that it should not have been patronized by the chickens, otherwise it can't be like this.

"Don't worry, I'll come back tomorrow morning. ”

In the picture, Lu Yu muttered while looking around:

"I shouldn't be wrong, there's definitely more than one turkey around here...... So, let's wait a little longer, and now go back and prepare dinner......"

……

By the time we got back to camp, it was completely dark.

After adding a few handfuls of firewood to the bonfire, Lu Yu put a small pot full of water on the fire, ready to boil the water first.

"Brothers, tonight, let's eat turkey. ”

"Speaking of which, I don't seem to have eaten meat in a long time, so this meal is too crucial, just enough to fill my stomach with worms. ”

As soon as I heard that I was going to eat chicken, there were more barrages in an instant:

"Are you going to poison again?"

"The chickens are shivering!"

"Daily food session!"

"Spicy strips are ready, sit back and wait for the anchor to start!"

"MD, I'm not angry, and I'm drooling again!"

……

Bark in a small pot, boiling water quickly.

Within a few minutes, it was bubbling up.

Seeing that the water was boiling, Lu Yu immediately went back to the hut, took out a large turkey, and put it next to the fire.

Then, find a discarded coconut shell.

Scoop a scoop of hot water in the pot and pour it over the chicken feathers.

Wild turkeys, unlike domesticated domestic chickens.

Eat more insects, so the meat is very firm, and hair removal is no longer a problem.

A few scoops of hot water went down.

Little by little, the pores on the chicken skin swelled up.

At this time, as long as you gently pull it out with your hand, the chicken 1 feather will fall.

However, because of the size of this chicken, it is really a bit big.

And in Lu Yu's hand, there is no larger container.

So, it's still a bit laborious to deal with.

Handling turkeys is definitely a technical job.

In foreign countries, turkey killing has even formed a complete industrial chain, and slaughtering tools are becoming more and more professional.

Squat around a campfire.

Lu Yu took advantage of the firelight to pour hot water on the chicken while plucking the chicken feathers.

It took more than half an hour of busy work before it came to an end.

"The most authentic way to eat turkey is, of course, grilled. On Thanksgiving and Christmas, roast turkey is an essential dish on the Western table. ”

This dish originated in 1620, when the immigrants of the British Kingdom, in order to thank the Indians who rescued them, held a sumptuous thanksgiving party, and treated these primitive natives with roast turkey and corn pastry. ”

So, over time, eating turkey on Thanksgiving has become a unique custom on the American continent. ”

While speaking, Lu Yu found a few wooden sticks from the pyre.

The turkey is tied to a wooden rack.

Then, after testing the charcoal fire with the palm of his hand, he found the barbecue grill he had made earlier and placed the turkey on it.

When the skin is heated, it gradually begins to shrink.

It didn't take long for the grease to be forced out, and the entire live broadcast room was filled with the sound of barbecue......
