Chapter 204: Unraveling the Mystery of Marksmanship

The fish in the slowed flood are really easy to catch, and every day is a big harvest.

Ah He dug a pit with Zhang Jingtao on a piece of mud slightly above the flood, dug a ditch again, and communicated to a small lake, so that the big pit was filled with water, and the fish caught and not dead were kept in it, and they were stopped with bamboo net ditches, instead of blocking the ditches with mud.

After seeing a lot of ponds, the observant Ah naturally knows that there is a difference between stagnant water and living water.

And this place, in fact, is not too high, but judging from the previous flood, it is only a few tens of centimeters higher, and it is impossible to be flooded again, unless in terms of topography, the mountains upstream of the west side of Hanshan have changed again.

And for this ditch sluice method, Ah Hao seems to have recorded another word.

Zhang Jingtao was extremely curious about what Ah He recorded, but he didn't dare to look at it.

He only made bows and arrows in the cave with Ah He, and their work was mainly to polish bamboo sticks and make bows and arrows.

There must be no bamboo knots on the arrow, otherwise it will scratch the hand.

It is also necessary to make grooves in the back of the arrows to give force to the bowstring.

Then he used very thin hemp rope to help the arrows with porcupine thorns, but the needles were not too long to ensure their toughness.

And because the idea of making bows and arrows was made a year ago, when Ah Ah was still quarrying, he left a lot of stone chips, which can be used as arrowheads, as long as he also makes a fork in front of the bamboo arrow, he can tie the stone arrows.

After Zhang Jingtao tied one and felt it, he found that such an arrow would definitely have a strong lethality if the impact was enough.

It's just that when Tianqing was about to try the bow occasionally, Ah Ha found that the flat pole was too wide, and her hands were not easy to grasp.

Even Zhang Jingtao felt uncomfortable holding it.

The two of them could only go back to the hole, and grind out two concave arcs on the two sides of the bamboo piece at the handle position in the middle of the bamboo bow to reduce the width of the bamboo bow.

But after doing this, Ah He thought that he should strengthen the strength of this position, so he worked with Zhang Jingtao and polished a reinforcing piece.

The stiffener is only slightly longer than the handle on the longbow and is tapered.

After tying it to the middle of the bow, I felt that the elasticity of the bow was much better than that of a bow that was not handled in this way.

Moreover, the bamboo was still a little thinner for the handle, but after it was strengthened like this, it was very comfortable to hold.

Zhang Jingtao was also surprised, you must know that the bows he has seen are all modern finished bows, where have he ever seen such an exaggerated Dongdong.

In his excitement, he made such a handle for his bow, but this one was made longer, and as a result, the bow was more elastic.

After getting it done, the two waited for the weather to clear up and then went to try the arrow.

When trying the bow, Zhang Jingtao felt a little magical, because this longbow was different from any bamboo bow he had seen in his later life, and this bow was to be pulled by the bamboo skin against him.

In addition, with the simplicity of this bow, Zhang Jingtao is indeed a person who doubts its power.

Test firing!

The person who shot it was Ahhh

Ah Yu concentrated, his hand was very steady, and he didn't open the bow to the maximum, but only opened ninety percent.

Then, the hand that pulled the string did not let go immediately, but waited for the hand holding the bow to lean forward sharply and send the bow towards the target, and then the hand that pulled the string let go and released the arrow.

But Ah He didn't have confidence in the elasticity of the longbow, so he unconsciously relied on his body to yaw, and sent his left hand forward, trying to help the longbow send arrows.

Unexpectedly, this comprehended the most correct way to shoot arrows.

Zhang Jingtao is too clear about this method, this feeling of archery is a bit like hitting the target with the fist of his left hand, so as to guide the trajectory of archery.

And this is the most effective way to shoot arrows, after using it smoothly, it is a bit like holding an arrow in your left hand and throwing it at a target at close range, and when you are familiar with your bow, you don't even need to calculate the angle of the parabola.

With one mind.

In other words, the most accurate way to shoot arrows is to send arrows.

And not the Olympic way.

For this reason, the word "shooting" reveals this mystery, because this last delivery is almost an inch of distance from the body leaning forward.

Of course, the size of Huaxia is 5 centimeters, not other sizes.

Therefore, the word shooting is composed of the words "body" and "inch".

And Ah Ah was really talented after shooting a little bit of the first arrow, and then when he tried archery, he could shoot the trunk of the tree at a distance of thirty meters.

Zhang Jingtao cheered for the little girl.

For this reason, Zhang Jingtao also understood that in ancient times, he only owed an inch to his body.

This is, at this moment, he thought very clearly, Shui Xie, should be like a person owes a body, the house that emerges from the land to the water, Shi Xie, is a house that owes a section of the body on the stone, for this reason, the Buddha building in Xiangtang Villa is a typical Shi Xie.

At this point, in the code of Nahe Shibi, Kong Qiu and Shi Xie, he has completely unraveled, but unfortunately, he does not dare to go back.

And after knowing the true meaning of the word thanks, you will know that the ancient thanksgiving never had to bow down, but just owed an inch to thank him.

So Shane never kneeled.

It's just that when I got to the Confucians, it all became kneeling.

And the elasticity of this simple bow body greatly exceeded Zhang Jingtao's expectations.

He originally thought that they would be very weak, but unexpectedly, after having a bow handle, the bow was long and tight, and the bamboo arrows were light, 30 meters away, enough to shoot the bamboo arrows tied with porcupine thorns deep into the mud cracks between the stones of Taihu Lake outside, and even the bamboo branches were shot into the soil for more than ten centimeters, which already had enough lethality.

But there is also a problem, that is, the long arrows using porcupine thorns are very floating, and the accuracy is very poor.

Shoot the tree again, and the long arrow can actually penetrate deep into the trunk of the tree, and the thorn can't be pulled out, so you can only give up.

Later, the two tried to shoot arrows with stone arrows.

Now, the two were finally pleasantly surprised.

The long arrows of the stone arrowhead not only did not float, but also the power was very terrifying, it could be deeply embedded in most of the arrows in the tree, and shattered, making people shudder, and clearly felt its lethality.

You know, the trunk is extremely hard, very tough, and more importantly, has a very strong friction, if it is replaced by a thin iron sheet, this arrow can easily shoot through.

Ah He tried to tie the thorn and the stone together, but unexpectedly, her craftsmanship was not good, and the arrows that came out of this way only became more floating.

In this way, it is obvious that the only choice is to choose the stone arrow, but fortunately, the power of the stone arrow is actually enough, and if an arrow hits the beast's vital point within the effective range, it is enough to make it lose its attack power.

And this effective range turned out to be 90 meters.

The two are already very satisfied with this.

For such a longbow shot, I'm afraid only the bamboo shield has good protection.
