Until this moment, Wang Xiaotie still wanted to hug his thighs first. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info After all, he himself doesn't have any strength at all, and in the face of such a killing copy, he can survive until now, and it is his kid's life!

There is no way, if you want to continue to mix at this time, then you can only rely on the heroine Katniss, as for Lulu is still a child, and her former thighs are still playing hide and seek with a bastard who throws javelins.

After a short time, Lulu returned to the cave with a few long wooden sticks, and then put them in front of Wang Xiaotie.

"Wang, look at which of these can be used as bows, this is a different tree I found nearby, if not, I'll look for it again!"

Wang Xiaotie began to pick up the wooden stick on the ground to check.

There are many kinds of wood suitable for making bows on earth, such as oak, lemon tree, hickory, purple shirt, acacia, teak, juniper, mulberry and even bamboo or rattan. However, when using bamboo or rattan, you must be careful that they are not thick enough. If you really want to use it, choose young bamboo, which is firm, elastic and good.

Do not use raw wood (fresh trees) unless absolutely necessary. Because the strength of raw wood is not as good as that of dry wood.

However, in this whole forest, there are almost no trees that Wang Xiaotie knows, that is, the ecological environment here, the species created are not the same as those on the earth, so Wang Xiaotie can only try them one by one.

First of all, the wood should be as straight as possible, of course, only a slight arc is acceptable, but the kind of wood that appears to bend left and right is still good as firewood.

The most important thing is that the wood should be elastic, and the size of the elasticity directly affects the amplitude of the stretch and the power of the arrows that can be fired.

Wang Xiaotie picked up a one-and-a-half-meter-long wooden stick and put it against a corner of the cave, and then pressed his entire body against the log, using the strength of his body to make the stick begin to bend.

As the arc grows larger, "Click! "The stick is broken!

Wang Xiaotie was disappointed and left the wooden stick aside, then picked up another one and continued to experiment.

A perfect bow body must be elastic enough, but not too soft, just like the one in Wang Xiaotie's hand now, before he can use much strength, it is about to bend to 90 degrees, and of course this kind of wood is not suitable.

After experimenting with several pieces, Wang Xiaotie finally found a piece of wood that looked good. Then I sat down in the light of the hole and began to continue processing.

"Lulu, give me the dagger, by the way, what kind of wood is this wood from?"

"It's a blood tree, but my dad used to call it a demon tree, because it's red like a blood-sucking demon." Lulu answered Wang Xiaotie's question while squatting down in front of Wang Xiaotie, curious to see what he was going to do.

In every district, there is a barbed wire fence that allows people to go outside of the barbed wire fence, and if they find it, they are brutally whipped in the main square.

If you want to be a hunter, you have to get out of the warning range, and you also have to bear the danger of being found and punished. Often, a severe beating can make the victim almost lose his home, and serious injuries cannot be treated in time, and even after the punishment, he will not survive for long.

To put it bluntly, this is tantamount to a death penalty, and it is the kind of death penalty that is very sinful. Therefore, the profession of hunter is not common in various districts, and excellent hunters are even rarer.

Wang Xiaotie picked up the wood, carefully identified the curvature of the wood by the sunlight sprinkled into the hole, and then made a mark on the wood with a dagger.

No matter how thin the stick is, it has its own natural curvature, and when making the bow, you must follow the curvature of the wood itself, and you must not go against it.

When Wang Xiaotie used a dagger to peel off the bark on this piece of wood, he found that it was indeed red inside, and the red ones were a little black, like congealed blood, which was really amazing! If this is placed on the earth, Nima will not be able to sell it for a sky-high price?

The one made by Wang Xiaotie is called a single longbow, which is the simplest of all bows and arrows. (Other types: single straight bamboo bow, recurve bamboo bow, and bow, traditional compound bow, slide bow, etc.)

Although it doesn't look as beautiful as other bows and arrows, it is not much inferior in terms of practicality.

The process of making a bow and arrow generally starts from the material to the processing, followed by the taming of the bow and finally the winding of the arrow. The most troublesome step is the bow taming, which can be time-consuming and cumbersome.

But in order to make a bow and arrow that is both beautiful and practical, the step of taming the bow cannot be omitted. Even if Wang Xiaotie doesn't plan to focus on aesthetics, in order to make the heroine more comfortable, this step cannot be skipped.

Wang Xiaotie selected about 1.8 meters of wood, and cut off the rest with a dagger. Grooves are then cut at both ends to place the bowstring.

Then comes the hardest and most troublesome part, getting the arched back to gradually adapt to the bending. This is also known as bow taming, which makes the bow body into the shape you want directly.

There are many ways to tame a bow, and the more you want to make your bow more beautiful, the more complicated and troublesome it will become. Wang Xiaotie uses the simplest one, the bow drawing method.

It's simple.

Tie the bowstrings to both ends of the bow body with the bow back relaxed, then choose another straight wooden stick, and use a dagger to dig a groove every three centimeters on the wooden stick. Hold the stick against the center of the bow, pull the string slowly, and hang it into the first groove, and the back of the bow is slightly bent.

Bow taming is a patient job, and in a hurry, it is often useless. (It is not recommended to roast the bow over fire, as this will reduce the tension of the bow; You can't bend it into place all at once, in that case, even if the arched back doesn't break, it will cause internal injuries and lose its elasticity. ）

After hanging the first groove, Wang Xiaotie raised his bow and arrow, came to the sun, carefully observed the bow body, and checked whether the curve of the bow back was smooth and even. Use the dagger to mark the places that are too awkward and rigid, loosen the bowstring, and adjust with the dagger. Then rewind and check.

As the opening is gradually increased and the bow is continuously trimmed, the bow body has formed a satisfactory and uniform arc. (Pull the opening of three or four chord grooves every time you add the rope tighter.) This process should not be rushed, especially before each increase in the opening, it is best to let the arched back "rest" for 20-30 minutes, so that the internal stress can be relieved, so as not to damage the wood. Don't tighten too much each time, it's best to tighten one inch at a time. ）

The heroine had already returned to the cave and began to make wooden arrows under the guidance of Wang Xiaotie. Lulu watched for a while, feeling bored, and ran to a corner of the cave to sleep.
