On the eighty-third day, the bow and arrow materials (below) begged for subscription
The bow was really difficult, I had to cut off a lot of the trunk, and I had to be very careful not to damage the bow. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
There were a lot of materials, but it would take too long to start from scratch, and it wasn't what I wanted. As the trunk was slashed away by the axe, the long trunk turned into a long strip of flattened material.
This is the prototype of the bow, but it is still a long way from the finished product. The further you go, the more difficult it becomes, the more you have to be careful. You must pay attention to the production of the handle, once you cut some more, it will have a great impact on the strength of the bow body.
The fire axe has been put aside by me, and now I have a Swiss Army knife in my hand, and I am using the knife on it, cutting little by little. The handle should be cut into a cylindrical shape first, which is more comfortable to hold. Then use a knife to carve some grooves on the cone, and the function of these grooves is to prevent slipping.
Last night, when I was all this time, I was sweating as if I had been fished out of the water. This kind of meticulous work is really tiring. However, looking at the bow in his hand, it feels good to shake it a few times. After all, it is made by hand! There is still the last step, when installing the bowstring, you need to bend the bow body, according to the current test situation, the toughness of the bow body is still good, as long as the bark is dry, you can complete the bowstring, and then as long as you install it, you can do it.
But the choice of bow and arrow made me difficult, it was a waste of time to make it from tree trunks, and if I used small trees with thick fingers outside, the bow and arrows would not be good enough!
The reason is simple and convenient!
Such small trees are not uncommon. While it is time to dry the bow and bowstring, you can first prepare the material of the bow and arrow, that is, a small tree with thick fingers. These small trees were common, but just as I was clearing the grass, a large spider, at least half the size of a palm, scurried out of the way, and I jumped in pain in an instant.
It was impossible to let it go, and it was impossible to lift its foot and kick the spider, but I didn't expect the spider to be very fast, and immediately returned to the grass. It is impossible to let it go. I immediately used my axe to cut through the grass and found the fleeing spider, which seemed to be a little surprised by the pursuit, and raised its forelimbs in an attacking position. Of course, this posture only deepened my anger, and I fought hard to cut it down.
Of course, the axe was not something it could stop, and it was split into meat sauce in one fell swoop, and disgusting juices splashed on the face. After wiping it, I started to check my instep. It was already swollen, squeezed the blood from the wound, waited for a while, and there was no follow-up reaction.
"Whew!" Ten minutes later, I breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately it was not a poisonous spider, I had heard that some spiders are highly poisonous, and after being bitten by it, it can directly poison adults to death. I moved my feet, but it didn't hurt much. It's just a little swollen. Let's hope there won't be any major problems in the future.
But I didn't see it when I cleared the grass, and this kind of place is really dangerous. I'm really afraid that my life will come to an abrupt end one day......
A total of twelve small trees with thick fingers were cut down, and the bow and arrow could not be too little. In addition, I also cut off a piece of the extra bark from the previous tree. Ready to use this bark, roll a quiver out. When the time comes, it will be much more convenient to put these twelve bows and arrows in them and carry them on your back.
The bark of the small trees was peeled off little by little, and then the trees were cut off slightly, leaving a length of about 60 centimeters, and the arrows were sharpened. If this is the case, the strength of the arrow is definitely not enough, and even the arrow is a little rough.
After all these arrows are done, they need to be burned with fire. When the arrowhead was turned black by the fire, I tried it, and the strength was much higher than before. In this way, the first step of the bow and arrow is completed.
The second step is to cut a dent at the end of the arrow with a knife, which is used to secure the bowstring, which can be stuck in this dent. This will cause the bow to fall off when it is fired. The third step is the arrow feathers, the arrow feathers can go outside to pick up some seabird tail feathers, tear those tail feathers, and use fine hay to tie the torn seabird tail feathers to the arrows.
……
Everything is going on the bright side, and at least so far, I've succeeded in making it all from the materials in my notebook. So I couldn't help but feel good.
Because I was so engrossed, I forgot to eat, and now when I stop, my stomach has reached the point of almost unbearable hunger. There is still a lot of food in reserve, because of the continuous rain, the dried fish that dried last time were a little damp.
In order not to waste any food, I plan to cook more dishes today, and have a good meal with Xiao Hei, since the lightning guy can crawl, Xiao Hei has become its exclusive nanny, this is not hungry and does not come to me, usually as long as it is hungry, it will come to harass.
But the little guy is definitely not worried, in the lower level of the treehouse, you can hear the footsteps of the little black on the upper floor, walking back and forth. It is estimated that lightning is crawling around.
Treat yourself to a few steamed dried fish, bacon and homemade sausages for lunch. Put some water in the pot, put it on the water with three chopsticks, and steam it with dried fish, bacon, and sausages.
The dried fish is soaked into the shriveled flesh by the hot steam, and after a few minutes, the flesh gradually begins to fill with water, and the shriveled fish gradually becomes full. Bacon and sausages are the same, after being fumigated by hot gas, the oil in them is brought out by the high temperature, and drop by drop into the water at the bottom of the pot.
The fragrance began to spread throughout the house, and sure enough, at this time, I saw Xiao Hei rushing down with lightning in his mouth. When he came to my feet, he threw the lightning bolt to the ground, then looked up at me with a pleading look.
This guy does this every time, as if I often don't give it food, but the truth is that every time it eats more than I do...... These things were ready, but the rice hadn't been cooked yet, so he still calmed down the excited Xiao Hei first.
……
The dried sea fish or the dried freshwater fish are much more delicious, the bones are relatively small and they are particularly delicious, Xiao Hei ate two in one go...... Of course, the taste of sausage and bacon is also very good, oily but not greasy, perhaps because most of the oil is steamed away, so even if you eat more, it doesn't feel too oily. So much so that even I ate two bowls of rice in a row for the first time.
After I had my fill, I was ready to take a nap, but as soon as I fell asleep, I was woken up by a noise!
