A good night's sleep.

The next morning, the camp was pulled, but it was still early.

We crossed the right bank of the river, entered the woods on the bank of the river, and followed the river without taking our eyes off it.

By the afternoon, we had entered a single forest of species, in which there was basically only one kind of tree, with long, slender leaves, and branches full of red fruits, as big as little fingers.

I saw that this tree was different from ordinary miscellaneous trees, which was a little strange, so I couldn't help but look at it twice.

But after looking at it for a while, I feel a little familiar.

"This ...... It can't be a yew, right?"

I walked up and picked a small sapling two fingers thick, and squeezed it so hard that it was half-bent.

Then I found that the wood was tough and elastic.

Can't be wrong, it should be yew.

I turned to the women and said, "Rest, rest!

I put down the spear on my shoulder, took off the sapper shovel from my waist, went into the forest, and directly picked a three-finger thick, straight wood, and some years of yew, cut it down from the roots, and cut it into a stick more than five feet long.

What do I want this stick for?

Because I'm going to make a bow!

Why do you use it to make a bow?

I took into account that now that everyone has found it, life is relatively comfortable, and there is no need to run around in this lofty mountain every day.

In the future, I will hunt and find food, and I can't always use my limited number of a few hundred bullets.

That's a guy who defends himself, although it's very easy to use, but if you can't use it, try not to use it!

In this way, when it is critical, I can take it out to defend me and my women...... And the women who are not my women.

The main reason is that the amount of these bullets is too small, and there is no source to replenish it, except for the half that was given to Li Zhi, I only have a total of five or six hundred rounds left in my hands. Along the way, we have used up more than 80 rounds, and the day before yesterday, I killed more than 100 rounds a day, and my heart still hurts.

Now there are less than 400 rounds left, and I have to treasure each one as if it were my life. If you can't shoot, don't shoot.

That's why I'm going to make a longbow instead of a rifle for my daily hunting.

In ancient times, there were no modern firearms, and they used bows and arrows for hunting.

But don't underestimate the power of the bow and arrow. A hundred steps through Yang may be a bit exaggerated, but a good bow, with a sharp arrow, within a twenty meters, can still shoot you through the neck. If you can't kill, you can be an ancient archer!

Of course, the convenience and practicality of the bow and arrow, as well as the ability to defeat the enemy, are far from being comparable to the rifle.

A rifle is shot out, whether it is a lion, a tiger, a cheetah, a bear, as long as it is next to it, it can still move again, very few!

To achieve such an effect, of course, it is not only the penetrating ability of the bullet, but also the ability of the bullet to destroy the body. After the bullet is discharged, it will turn and roll, and it will enter the flesh, and it will destroy the flesh before it pierces through the other side. If it hits a small organ in the stomach, it can take the whole organ away.

And bows and arrows, naturally, cannot achieve such an effect.

But against poodles and bears, I can't risk playing with bows and arrows, why do I use my guns, and are there still 400 bears on this island that can't get along with me?

I'm going to have to fight it until it's extinct!

The bow I'm going to make has to be able to hit the average medium-sized prey. For example, roe deer, deer, small wild boar, etc. I don't think about large wild things, like bison and wild horses, even if I stick arrows all over it, I guess it can still run, it doesn't matter if it runs, if you turn back to me again, I'll be finished.

This yew is tough and resistant to wood and is a good material for bow handles.

I casually peeled the skin, flattened the head and tail, and then handed the wooden stick to Kexin, who was following me, and said, "Kexin, you are empty-handed, and I can't get used to being idle, so I'll assign you a task." You've got this stick for me, but don't lose it, I'll spank you if you lose it. ”

Kexin naughtily stuck out her tongue at me, took the wooden stick, held it in the palm of her hand, and said, "Brother Stinky Lele, if you dare to spank me, I will let my cousin clean you up! I know that you are very afraid of your cousin!"

I glanced up at my cousin who was sitting on the ground resting on the other side, and said, "Hey, you little girl, my ...... No, it's the leader of the team, I can't clean you up, don't you think it's useful to sue my cousin, do you think I'll be afraid of that woman? As soon as I get powerful, she still has to call me brother!"

Kexin smiled: "Yes, then I'll ask her to go, and ask her if she really called you brother." ”

I grabbed her: "Don't! What is there to ask, I'll prove it to you later, she has come to relatives in the past two days, and her temper is not very good, let's not mess with her first!"

I really didn't talk nonsense, but when I went to bed last night, I overheard my cousin complaining to other women, saying that she was annoying, and her stomach began to ache when her menstrual period came this month.

So today I am all going to stop and go, and try to arrange as much time as possible for my cousin to rest, for fear that she will get emotional and spray her anger on my head, and then she will wronged me.

I heard Su Wu talk to me, saying that in the days when women came to work, their mood would always be inexplicably irritable, and people would become impatient.

Kexin stopped, and asked me again: "Brother Lele, what are you doing here, do you want to make a flat burden?"

I shook my head and said, "No." To make a bow, I want to make a bow for hunting, to hunt pheasants, rabbits, roe deer and yellow wolves, anything!"

But Xin's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Wow! Yes? Then I want it too, I also like hunting!"

I said, "If you want, then I'll make you one, and we'll go up the mountain to hunt together." I like you for this! The other women, lazy and lazy, are absent-minded every time they are called to hunt. ”

"Okay, I'm going to hunt pheasants and hares!" But when I praised her, I jumped up with joy, and after being happy, I asked me curiously: "Brother Lele, your wooden strip, is it too big, I look at the bow and arrow on TV, it doesn't look like such a big one." It's so big, can we pull it?"

I said: "The kind of Western goods on TV, it can't be real, that power, chickens can't be killed." Of course, this wood can't be so big, and I'll have to cut it back when I go back. ”

"Oh yes!" I said to her, "If you say you, you can't pull this kind of bow, and it will take more than a hundred pounds of strength." I'll make you a small one, a one that specializes in pheasants and wild birds. It's the kind on TV!"

As I spoke, I picked out a small sapling that was one and a half fingers thick, cut it down and handed it to Kexin.
