Chapter 90: Bow and Arrow

The wind blew, the grass rolled, Li Yingxing's figure disappeared on the road east of the village, and the whining sound was not heard, only the occasional cry or two of pain and scolding, it was Chen Cripple.

"This time it's thanks to Uncle Lai." After this incident, Lai Dongxi was busy for a day, and went to the county government with Chen Xiaoyi, the ox cart used to transport Liu Shan's body also came to Dongxi, Chen Ping was sincerely grateful, "I know that Uncle Lai definitely doesn't need money, and there is still some rabbit meat at home, and Uncle Lai will take one back later." ”

In case the three things are solved, this Liuhe Mountain can still enter, and there is a lot of game, which is still given by Chen Ping's family.

"How do you know I don't want that money?" Lai Dongxi smiled, "Okay, your family is not rich, the hare is kept by himself, and in a few years, you should be a strong laborer." ”

Chen Ping's eating and growing body is not to be a strong laborer.

The villagers dispersed, and those who knew each other greeted Chen Xiaoyi, said some reassuring words, and praised Chen Ping by the way.

In the cold wind, in the small open space in the east of the village, there was only an old couple embracing, prostrate on the ground, in the direction of Liuhe County, crying in a low voice, the only son was taken away, and the sky seemed to fall.

Although he didn't want to play wild meat, Chen Ping couldn't really not take it, so he stopped him from coming to Dongxi, and asked Lai Pingdong to go to the house to take a hare, peel it, and ask for 100 yuan from Chen Xiaoyi, and distribute it to the villagers in Laisheng and another Tu village.

In this way, a lot of money is spent.

"What a loser." Everyone dispersed, and the matter was resolved, Chen Xiaoyi scolded Chen Ping, "How much money did you disperse this time?" ”

Chen Xiaoyi used to go to the county government for 500 wen, and then gave 50 wen to each of the three officials, Chen Ping took 1,500 wen to Li Yingxing, and now he gives Chen Sheng and the two of them another 100 wen, and the sum of one should be 2,250 wen.

And that's not even counting the hares that gave the Lai Dongxi a tooth sacrifice.

The money I got back a few days ago is half gone this time, and this money is too much.

"There is giving and giving, people have helped us, we can't help but show something, grandpa rest assured, money is something outside the body after all, if you don't bring it in life, you don't bring it in death, what do you want to do." Speaking of which, Chen Ping is also a little heartbroken, but think about it, this thing really can't be saved, what can win people's hearts more than this?

Now it is not important to look at people's hearts, but when something really happens, Chen Ping thinks that the money scattered at this time will definitely play a role, moisturizing things silently, and this is what he wants.

"You are arrogant, and you don't look at who eats meat all day long, and you make three meals." That is, to complain, let Chen Ping have a long memory, Chen Xiaoyi didn't say more, "Is there still any food?" ”

"Yes, I have long left it for Grandpa." Chen Ping said, "I'll go and give you hot again." ”

"I'll come, you take your sister to play." The son was fine, and the smile on Liu's face showed again, "Go and make that bed, and Yuan Liang will sleep with you at night." ”

Chen Yuanliang did not leave, but stayed.

"Well, Uncle Lu is also resting at my house today?" This time, Chen Ping didn't open his mouth to Lu Xingyong, and Lu Yingyong didn't speak, but Chen Ping's attitude was still the same, and he teased a little.

"If you don't drive me away, I will naturally stay." Lu Xingyong nodded.

Chen Xiaoyi, Chen Yuanliang and Chen Hecai, father and son, gathered around the table to eat the specially left meal, braised rabbit meat, the taste is still there after it is heated, it is really fragrant.

Chen Ping paced to the courtyard and picked up the bow and arrow, the iron fork was taken away by Li Yingxing as evidence, but the bow and arrow were kept, and there was an arrow bag in the hall, and there were more than 20 arrows in it, which were also used in animal skin bags.

"Boy, you don't have a loss, this bow and arrow can't be bought without more than a thousand yuan, and that antler wrench is also worth some money." Lu Xingyong saw Chen Ping pulling the bow there, "The mulberry wood used in this bow is much stronger than those bamboo bows." Did you see this arrow, it was also made of iron. ”

The mulberry bow is stronger than the bamboo bow, and the horn bow is stronger than the mulberry bow, and the one used by Wan San is still wrapped in birch bark on the outside, don't look at it just the bark, but this birch bark is not available in the south, and it needs to be brought from Liaodong.

"The bow arm is also covered with a layer of birch bark, which is the best moisture-proof thing, and no other bark is good." Lu Yingyong was quite familiar with this, and casually gave Chen Ping a few words, "As for the antler wrench, it will be more stable when you wear it, bring it, I'll give it a try for you." ”

It sounds strange, I didn't expect that there are so many things to say about this simple bow and arrow, Chen Ping used to make a simple bow and arrow with the umbrella skeleton at home when he was young, but it obviously can't be compared with this mulberry bow.

When Wansan shot an arrow, he wanted to take his own life, but at this time, Chen Ping was curious, handed the bow and arrow in his hand to Lu Xingyong, and drew an arrow for him.

"How can I demonstrate if I don't have a antler wrench?" Lu Xingyong said, "Don't worry, these things of yours are useless to me, and I won't lose you." ”

I saw Lu Xingyong put the antler wrench on his thumb, his legs were slightly apart, he was tied to the horse, he was sideways, the bow and arrow, the bowstring and the body were on the same plane, picked up an arrow feather, put it on the bowstring, and only used the thumb of the right hand wearing the antler wrench to pull the string, the thumb and index finger controlled the tail of the arrow, and the other three fingers were shrunk in the palm.

The position of the bow arm is held by the left hand, and the powerful thing is actually only the three fingers of the left hand, the middle finger, the ring finger and the little finger hold the bow arm, and the thumb and index finger are a bit like the posture of the gun, but the bow arm is clamped flat, and the thumb of the left hand also plays the role of setting up the archery.

The real two points and one line, the arrow feather next to the cheek, when the arrow reached about a point on the thumb of his left hand, Lu Yingxing's thumb wearing a antler wrench moved slightly, the bowstring loosened, and the arrow flew out and landed on the courtyard gate, buzzing and trembling.

It's really a three-point point.

"This force is still a little smaller, if it is a corner bow in the army, it can be deeper." Turning his bow arm, Lu Xingyong returned the bow and arrow to Chen Ping, and when he saw Chen Ping's expression, he smiled, "Want to learn?" ”

Chen Ping nodded.

This is stronger than those tricks, looking at Lu Xingyong's posture, you know that he is a good hand with arrows, there is such a famous teacher, if you don't learn in vain, you won't learn.

"I'm going to stay here for a few days, and it's okay to teach you, but this bow and arrow requires a certain amount of arm strength, and I see that you are practicing your leg strength, and this arm strength doesn't seem to be practiced much." Lu Xingyong saw the bamboo tube tied to Chen Ping's legs, "The strength of this mulberry bow is about three buckets, and it should be no problem to pull, but if you want to shoot steadily, you need to increase the strength in your hand." ”

One stone is about one hundred city catties of later generations, and three buckets are thirty city catties, Chen Ping took the bowstring, pulled it, and held the string with four fingers, which can move.

"Try it with this." Lu Xingyong took off the antler wrench and gave it to Chen Ping.
