Chapter 65: Hunting the Stag

The short bow and thin arm also led to a shorter range, and the two did a test in the morning when they went to cut the thorns. The effective range of the horizontal range is about 50 meters, and the range of the projectile is less than 100 meters, if you increase the strength, when you reach the limit of the bow arm, the range will reach 150 meters, but if you pull it a few more times, the bow will be broken.

Of course, it doesn't matter if you pull it off, you just need to spend a little more time and do it again.

Next to Luo Fatzi is still practicing the posture of archery, serious and focused, occasionally shooting an arrow, can hit the grass target, but there is still some distance from the head of the grass target, and more practice is needed.

After informing the fat man, Xu Qiang turned around and picked up the arrow, and brought back a large bundle of grass, and used the rest time to make a grass target and put it fifty meters to the left of the door, ready to stay and practice the fifty-meter target.

His arm was still sore, Xu Qiang had to go back to the shack, take out the stones and rabbit leg bones, and continue to make stone arrows and bone arrows.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, Xu Qiang, who had already made twenty stone arrows and five bone arrows, was called by Luo Fatzi to visit the toilet he had built. At this time, the thatched pit dug by Xu Qiang had been fenced off, and a door made of thin bamboo stood between two wooden stakes, and the left and right of the wooden stakes were arranged in turn with bamboos of ten centimeters thick and tied in the soil, close next to each other without gaps, forming a row of bamboo walls.

On top of the toilet were five or six bamboos, placed between the fence and the bamboo wall, on which were placed the long thatch that the fat man had picked up, and a layer of five centimeters of mud was covered with it. And next to the thatched pit, near the gate, Luo Fatzi opened another door to facilitate cleaning up the wool feces in the future.

"What's the matter, Brother Qiang, yes, I feel stronger than that shack, and it is sheltered from the wind and rain, so it should feel more comfortable squatting inside!"

The fat man pointed to his masterpiece, like a child who was asking for credit.

"Well, that's good, you can sleep in it at night, I'll sleep in the shack, haha!"

Hearing Xu Qiang say this, Luo Fatzi's face immediately darkened, and he was very shocked, he really blamed himself for being cheap!

However, Xu Qiang did not continue to attack him, he praised him very much, and handed over to him the plan to build a big house in the future, and he would definitely be able to build a house ten times better than this. Luo Fatzi's mood improved, and he was there alone and giggling.

From tomorrow onwards, the two of them will no longer have to run into the grass to make it convenient, and they will no longer have to worry about it, and even the last big one will have to hold an axe and a long knife in case of accidents. Isn't there an old saying? When a person is on the tuba, it is the time when his spirit is most relaxed, and when he is attacked by sneak attack, the consequences are unimaginable.

When the toilet was completed, Luo Fatzi suggested to celebrate, and Xu Qiang readily agreed. The two men then grabbed their gear, bows and arrows, and followed the stream to the edge of the jungle downstream. This morning, the two of them saw from a distance that there seemed to be a few deer there, and now they used to test the power of the bow and arrow before dark, and see if they could catch one to improve their taste.

In the woods, the two of them held bows in their left hands and spears in their right hands, one in front of the other, and while using the trees to hide their figures, they were also constantly searching for the surrounding animals, especially deer.

Grid ~ Grid ~ Grid ~~

Quack ~ quack ~

Not far away, in a clearing in the coniferous woods, two grouses stood on a rock and kept chirping, as if to show love. And there was also a black-billed grouse standing on a red pine tree next to it, looking at the love behavior of the two grouses below, hesitating whether to go down.

Seeing these grouses, Luo Fatzi wanted to shoot arrows with a bow, and was about to try the results of his practice, but was stopped by Xu Qiang's eyes.

Xu Qiang pointed under the red pine tree, Luo Fatzi didn't know why, turned his head to look there, and didn't see anything. But after he tried to look at it for a while, a low exclamation came out:

"Eggs!? Awesome, there are eggs to eat, I'm going to pick them up! ”

Luo Fatzi was undoubtedly very excited when he saw the egg, and wanted to rush up to pick it up, but he was pulled by Xu Qiang before he could turn around.

"Don't worry, be careful to startle the snake, the loose egg has no long legs, and you can't run. But if the grouse is alarmed, if the surrounding deer are scared away, it will be more than worth the loss, and you can only bake eggs at night! ”

Luo Fatzi was embarrassed, his mind returned to how to find the deer, and muttered helplessly:

"Okay, I'll pick it up later, but where are the deer, we've been looking for most of the day, and we can't even see half a shadow!"

As soon as they finished speaking, the two of them heard the chirping of an animal in the dense forest in front of them.

Yo~Yo~

It's the sound of a deer!

The two of them glanced at each other, then quickly hid behind a big tree to hide their figures, and slowly poked their heads out to look in the direction of the deer's chirping.

In the shade of the trees, a male sika deer slowly revealed its body, he looked around, and when he found no danger, he poked his whole body out and walked out to the glade, where there was a rich meadow. After checking it again, the buck turned his head to look behind him and chirped quietly.

Hulala, five or six deer, large and small, ran from the forest to the meadow, scrambling to graze with their heads down. The stag spun around, grazing and watching around vigilantly to prevent predators from approaching. I'm afraid that in its opinion, the carnivore must be on all fours, with fangs and claws, and fierce and fierce.

But behind a tall red pine tree in the distance, two different predators were eyeing them.

Xu Qiang and the two slowly approached, trying to hide their figures, and they didn't dare to get closer when they were still more than 30 meters away from the deer herd.

The two crouched behind the tree and briefly discussed, and made the other male deer in the herd who had just grown antlers the target of the hunt. To be sure, the two decided to attack simultaneously using stone arrows.

Hitting grass targets and shooting live animals are two different experiences. It was false to say in his heart that he was not nervous, Xu Qiang's heartbeat was a little fast, and Luo Fatzi was already sweating in his palms and his face was flushed.

Slowly poked out his bow and arrow from behind the tree, took a deep breath, drew the bow to the fullest, aimed at the little buck that was grazing with his head down, and whispered:

"Fatty, are you alright?"

"Whew~ Okay, Brother Qiang! I'm at your disposal. Luo Fatzi was still a little nervous, mainly because he was afraid that he would not miss, but after taking a deep breath, his mood was obviously much more stable.

"Good. Ready, one, two, three, shoot! ”

Sou!

The arrows in the hands of Xu Qiang and the others came out of the string, one after the other, and crossed the short thirty meters in an instant, piercing into the neck of the deer. But there is only one arrow on the deer, and what about the arrow that the fat man shot? hit the target, he should have applauded, but he didn't see the one shot by Luo Fatzi, which made Xu Qiang very puzzled, but soon he knew the reason.
