Regarding the method of hunting elephants or mammoths, Lin Ji has seen several methods in later film and television dramas. Some of the more classic ones are rolling down a boulder from a very high mountain, intercepting it with a huge net, or jumping directly on the elephant's head, shooting with a strong bow that can completely destroy the feathers of the arrow......

Forget about the rolling stones, this side is all forests, and the trees will block the stones. How to get the boulder to the top of the mountain is also a problem. Also, mammoths can run, and it's too difficult to smash accurately.

It's not easy to estimate this giant net. Mammoths weigh eight to ten tons, and they are so loaded like a wagon that a telephone pole can be broken, how thick of a rope do you have to use to stop it? Thick arms? How do you tie a knot with such a thick rope? Not to mention the problem of handling.

The last one with a strong bow, it's impossible to make a bow without arrow feathers, that's a fantasy......

After coming back, everyone actually had a discussion about weapon upgrades, which was a post-war summary.

For example, increase the length of the spearhead a little. Widen the edge of the axe to distinguish between a tool axe and a weapon axe. The machete is divided into a long handle and a short handle, the long handle should be thicker, the short handle should be longer, and so on.

Lin Ji also suggested that the warrior should have a shield, an arm shield, a heart shield and something like that.

These need to be added slowly in the future.

But Lin Ji now wants to hunt mammoths, or he wants to use bows and arrows. It's impossible to make a bow without arrows, but isn't there a one-stone bow or two-stone bow or something. Lin Ji felt that if he made a strong bow and combined it with a good arrow, it was impossible for the mammoth to shoot if he hit the vital point.

When the tiger barbarians in front of him arrived, Daji hid most of the bronze tools in the cave, blocked them with food or something, and some of the work was stopped. Now that the bronze tools were taken out, all kinds of work continued, and in the workshop by the playground, all kinds of voices sounded again.

Lin Ji first entered the bronze workshop with Po Tu. Now there are three furnaces in the bronze workshop, which are for copper smelting, tin smelting and fused bronze alloys.

Since the smelting of tin by himself, the quality of bronze has actually declined. Because there are a lot of impurities in the copper that is roughened in this way, there are also a lot of impurities in the tin that is roughened, and there are more impurities in the bronze alloy made by the two, so the quality of the bronze naturally declines.

Ying actually complained about Lin Ji's reluctance to take out the tin ingots, but Lin Ji didn't take them out again, and he could only find his own way to remove the impurities by melting the bronze many times. The progress of the tool is much slower than before. Needless to say, the tools made in this way are also more expensive.

On this day, the eagle had already cast a few things according to Lin Ji's request, and Lin Ji used a clamp to take the things out of the mud fan.

"Arrows?" Breaking the slaughter is overjoyed.

Early in the morning, Lin Ji let the forest trace cast the arrow, but Lin Ji ignored it for a long time. The reason is that it is a waste for them to hunt with arrows, because the arrows they shoot often cannot be retrieved.

Of course, Lin Ji thought before that the arrows were too big to shoot far, and if they were small, they were not strong enough, and they were not as good as the arrows of stone bones, so they didn't do it.

These arrows are relatively large, and they are triangular, and you can see that the lethality is not bad when you look at it.

Po Tu took it in his hand and weighed it: "It's still a little heavy, but I should be able to shoot it with my bow." So saying, he found a stone and began to sharpen it, and tied it to the shaft of the arrow.

After finishing this, Lin Ji beckoned him to take him to the nearby shed.

This is a carpenter's shed, and I used to sharpen wooden wedges, bamboo nails, wooden piers and other things, and no one would come to see it.

Youyan, who was injured in the stomach when he killed the pig's face, stayed in this shed. Maybe it's the medical skills of Lin Ji's two knives, or maybe it's Youyan's psychological problems. After his injury healed, he went out hunting several times and had diarrhea halfway, and it was the kind that couldn't control the uproar and pull one leg.

As a last resort, Lin Xi taught him all kinds of carpentry work and asked him to help make some simple things. Later, after harvesting a few pairs of horns, I taught him how to make a synthetic bow.

To make a synthetic bow of tendon wood, Lin Ji is a layman. I searched for books on this in the town and found them unfound. So everything can only be groped for.

He used to cut the horns of the ox out of the shape of a bow tire, boiled the fish into glue for bonding, and then pasted the tiger tendon and bear tendon and the like, but the bow he made cracked as soon as he pulled it, which was very faceless.

Later, Lin Ji asked Youyan to explore by himself, and he thought of something to prompt again. Now there are rocks that have begun to be air-dried, pressed, shaped, glued, bundled and other fixed processes. In the past two days, several small soft bows have also been made, which are also decent, will not crack indiscriminately, and have good elasticity.

Today, Youyan told Lin Ji that there was a big bow that could be wound up for a test shot.

The carpenter's workshop also had a fireplace, and all kinds of other things were thrown on the ground in a mess, and Youyan was a little pale, and he sat by the fireplace with a depressed face.

At his feet, there was a very thick bow. The bow body was wrapped in fine hemp rope, with its own curvature, the thickness of a child's arm. Through the hemp rope, you can see the fine texture of the beef tendon inside.

Po Tu picked it up and looked at it, felt very satisfied, and said, "Where are the strings?" Try winding. ”

Youyan swept a few broken ropes on the ground, and said with a sad face: "There are no strings." Not on the string. I was so stupid that I made the bow too thick for the strings to withstand. ”

Po Tu pressed the bow on the ground and pressed it down, and he did feel that the bow was a little hard. He thought about it and said, "Didn't you teach you to roll cowhide and hemp rope together?" ”

Youyan picked up a broken rope from the ground: "It's all like this, it's useless." Can't hold back. ”

Lin Ji took the bow and looked at it, it did have weight. He suspected that the bow was already three stones, which was a bit of a waste.

However, he was still relieved: "Do you want to stop making a finer one?" ”

"No, I can't do it, I use all the tendons. There are no more tendons. "Youyan is still very frustrated.

Po Tu held the bow, a little reluctant to put it down, turned his head and asked Lin Ji, "Do you have any other way to make a bowstring?" ”

There are no other methods, but there are other materials. Lin Ji didn't want Youyan to be hit like this, so he said: "I'll go back and look for it, I remember that I still have some stronger silk threads, you can try them." ”

Lin Ji went out, and Youyan looked at Lin Ji's back and wanted to ask him where he got any silk threads. Po Tu patted him on the shoulder and said, "Wait, it's okay." ”

Soon after, Lin Ji came back, and he didn't get any silk line, but he got a roll of fishing line. There is a fishing tackle shop in the small town, and the forest traces are found in it.

A 30-pound fishing line is less than 0.5mm in diameter and is almost transparent when pulled out. Youyan almost didn't dare to get started when he saw it. Po Tu pulled out a section, and the hand was pulled out with a red mark before it was broken.

Lin Ji took out the ten strands and rubbed them together, and Po Tu did not break the strength to eat milk, and immediately happily wound it with Youyan.

The bow with a thick white string after the winding is extremely extraordinary when you look at it. Po Tu tried to pull it several times in a row, and after finding that the bowstrings were all strong and sound, he took out the bronze arrows that had just been made, and after going out, he shouted loudly, and then bowed to the wall opposite the playground.

"Happy!" Po Tu shook his arm that was a little strained, and he only felt that all his strength was exerted by this bow.

The wall on the opposite side of the arrow also shook. A few people followed to take a look, only to see that the entire bronze arrow had been shot into the wood, more than three centimeters into the wood.

"Good! With this bow, even the long hair can kill it! "Breaking the slaughter is arrogant.

Lin Ji smiled and suggested, "Then let's set off?" ”
