Day 84, Ready!

The bowstring was already finished, and it was pulled a few times with both hands, and it was very tough and it was pulled at all. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info This gave me a new idea. In the past, vines were used to tie the trunks of the houses. If you switch to a rope made of this bark in the future, it should be much stronger than a vine. In addition, vines are less wear-resistant than this composite bark rope.

It's just that the bowstring made of this bark is a bit complicated, a large piece of bark, and only a little bit of it. I can only wait for more time to do it slowly. The construction of the new house has not yet begun, and it is not very urgent.

The bow was taken over, and after a few cuts were made in the two sections of the bow with a knife, the bowstring was tied up, and the gaps were made to prevent the bowstring from slipping. Hold the tied end on the ground and bend the top end of the bow with your body. Then he quickly tied the bowstring up.

A bow was formed, but the arrow was not yet finished, so I had to bend the bow and pull the string a few times, and it still felt very good. Since the bow body is made of small trees, the weight is very light, and the pulling force is not particularly strong, and it only takes some strength to pull the bow full.

At first, I was worried that if I pulled the bow too full, I was afraid that I would break the bow directly. But after trying it, I found that it was pretty good, the toughness of the bow was not bad, even if it was pulled several times, the bow only made a click sound, of course, it was not broken, not even any cracks, it was perfect.

I groped for the bow carefully, and although it was still a little rough, it was a handmade bow after all, so I was very satisfied. As long as the arrows are finished, you can go to the rabbit to try the effect. I'm really afraid that this kind of arrow can't even kill a rabbit.

The tail of the bow and arrow is easy to find, and seabird feathers can be seen everywhere in the nearby woods, but ordinary feathers are useless, and they must be tail feathers or feathers on their wings. Because the feathers on the bird's body are all fine down. If you tear the tail apart and stick it to the tail of the arrow with rice, you can turn it into an arrow feather.

As I said, birds often come down in the woods to find something to eat, and for seabirds, the woods are very rich in food, insects, fruits are everywhere. It didn't take long to pick up several suitable seabird feathers.

Tearing, gluing, winding...... Twelve bows and arrows were completed in a repetitive motion. However, when it was time to shoot the first arrow, something went wrong, and the two ends of the bow seemed to be a little out of balance. It should be that the thickness of the two ends of this bow is a little different, so this problem will occur.

After trimming the bow several times with a knife, and sharpening the ends as much as possible, I actually shot the first arrow. But it's miserable. The arrow that was originally going to be shot at the trunk of the tree had long since gone somewhere, and it was far away on the ground behind the tree......

Twelve arrows were shot, and not a single one was missed. I was so drunk! Do I need talent to use a bow and arrow? I was only six or seven meters away from this waist-thick tree, and I actually missed all of them?

Frustrated, I went to pick up all the arrows, and in the process of picking them up, I was surprised to find that one of the arrows was actually nailed to a small tree behind the side of the target tree. And the arrowhead had actually pierced the bark.

This made me intrigued, I didn't expect this kind of arrow to be so powerful, I didn't expect that even the bark would pierce the tree, and when I pulled out the arrow, I found that there was no damage on the arrow. I can't imagine that baking arrows with fire is so effective!

Because the pull of the bow body is not very large, I practiced for two hours, I didn't feel backache and hand pain, and the accuracy of archery has improved a lot compared to the beginning, although twelve arrows can only hit three, but compared to the beginning, it is a miracle. Maybe after a little more practice, the hit rate will be even higher.

Of course, although there are many small animals in the woods, if you use them as targets, you will still feel a little weak, and it is very unwise for me to not know the information of the other party and the damage of one blow cannot be fatal. If a critter is as ferocious as a honey badger, you're asking for trouble.

On the other hand, if you test on a rabbit, not only is there no danger, but if you shoot it, it will become food, killing two birds with one stone!

In the morning, in order to transport seawater in a large bucket, I poured the little fresh water in the bucket, and now I have to refill a bucket of fresh water, and by the way, I can go to the Rabbit Valley to try the power of the bow and arrow while it is still early.

I moved the big bucket to the river and filled it with water, which was a little muddy because of the rain it had rained two days before. But fortunately, it was only light rain after all, and the river was not as muddy as it was during the last rainstorm. It should be ready to use after precipitation.

I put the bucket of water by the river first, and I set off for the Rabbit Valley, anyway, there is no one here, and no animal will steal my bucket, just to try the bow and arrow, after all, I have just arrived, and the joy of this new thing in my heart is no less than wearing new clothes for the New Year when I was a child.

I don't know what's going on lately, there seem to be more and more small insects in the woods, and when I used to walk through the woods, there weren't so many small flying insects. But now, as soon as I entered the woods, several groups of small flying insects swooped in on me. Although small flying insects do not bite, there are too many of them, too dense, and too small. As soon as I breathe, a lot of flying insects rush into my nostrils, and it's a very uncomfortable feeling.

So I had to cover my mouth and nose and move forward, and not only that, but I also had to pay attention to the insects on the ground, and I even saw several giant centipedes! They were all hiding in the leaves, because they accidentally stepped on the tail of one of the centipedes, which caused its anger, only to see it turn around and try to fight back, but luckily I was able to hide quickly.

Centipedes are not uncommon in civilized society, so I have always known that centipedes are venomous, and if you are bitten by it, it will definitely be very painful. And the centipede here is so huge, if you are bitten by it...... I don't dare to think about it.

……

It was a very slow journey, but now I finally reached the Rabbit Valley, untying the bow and arrows tied to my back with vines. Then he looked at the rabbit that was grazing with his head down not far ahead.

When I pulled the bowstring, a few rabbits seemed to notice something unusual and stood up vigilantly, but fortunately I hid my whole body behind the rocks. So they didn't find out.

I have twelve arrows now, but I only have one chance......

Aim, re-aim, release...... The arrow flew at one of the rabbits with great precision......

Unfortunately, when the arrow was about to hit the rabbit, it realized it and ran away......

The arrow scared all the rabbits away and hid back in the hole, and I sighed helplessly, so I could only pick up the arrow first and see if I could wait for a second chance.

"What is this?" I was about to pick up the arrow, not far from where the bow had fallen, there was a bloody patch.

Picked up the scissors and picked up the piece......

It was a small piece of rabbit skin! The blood on it was still crimson, not yet blackened! Obviously, the time was not long......

"Who did that?" at this time, my mind exploded, and only this question remained!
