After a few more days, the snow almost melted, and many people in the village began to enter the city one after another, reselling their mountain goods to subsidize their families.

Zhou Zhichu also entered the city, and he drove the donkey cart to the Gu Daren's mansion as promised to deliver firewood.

It was Gu Liuzi who received him, that is, Xiao Liuzi, twenty bundles of firewood and four hundred dollars, Xiao Liuzi gave him half a tael of silver, and at the beginning of the week, he said that he had no money to find it, and Xiao Liuzi waved his hand in contempt, which meant that he got out, no need to look for it.

Zhou Zhizhi didn't say a word, rubbed the silver with both hands, and rubbed it into a long strip, and Xiao Liuzi's eyes popped out.

Then the boy drew his dagger and swiped it across the silver bar, which broke off a fifth, and he flicked the small fifth between his thumb and middle finger.

Duh, the silver bar was inlaid into the pillar next to Xiao Liuzi's ear.

"Buckle it yourself. At the beginning of the week, he led the donkey out of the door.

Xiao Liuzi wiped away the cold sweat, turned his head to look at the pillar, and saw a hole above, and only when he looked carefully could he see a trace of silver light inside.

Out of the ancient mansion, Zhou Chuchu thought that his skills were not bad, and he could practice hidden weapons in the future, but it was not very useful for hunting, and he still had to rely on bows and arrows.

He touched the cold iron rod on the car, but he didn't know where to get the bowstring, and suddenly remembered that there was a steel cable in the handle of the short dagger he used just now, it seemed to be quite long, and he didn't know if it was good to use as a bowstring.

After returning to the village, Zhou Zhichu took out the steel cable from the short dagger, which was more than a zhang long, and it was enough to make a bowstring.

At the beginning of the week, he tied the steel rope to one end of the cold iron rod, and then bent the cold iron rod, carefully straightened the steel cable and tied it to the other end, and after the bundle was strong, he slowly loosened it, and a strange rough cold iron bow was completed.

It's so ugly, this is the first impression of the beginning of the week, and also the first impression of the knife and the little flower later, it is rough like it grows in the ground, not man-made.

But ugliness can't hide its fierce nature, the bow body is extremely dark and uneven, the surface is extremely strong, the bowstring is shining like a blade, and the whole bow gives people a rough and unruly feeling.

The overall length of the cold iron bow is less than five feet, which is still much longer than the hunting bow of the knife, even for the height of nearly five and a half feet at the beginning of the week, it is not short, he tried to pull it, but immediately put it down, because it takes a lot of force to pull the bowstring, and then the bowstring will become extremely sharp, and if he is not careful, his fingers will be cut off, so he needs a wrench.

Putting down the cold iron bow, Zhou Zhizhi played Yunji Boxing in the courtyard, and after learning the Yi Qi Sutra, he thought that Yunji Boxing was no longer of much use, but occasionally found that Yunji Boxing was stronger in tempering his physique, and the improvement of his physical fitness was more detailed and comprehensive.

In addition, Yunjiquan can also speed up the operation of the Yi Qi Sutra, which is about the same speed as meditation, and only needs two hours a week, and there is a feeling at the beginning of the week that Yun Ji Quan is likely to be matched with the Yi Qi Sutra, one tempers the body, one refines the true qi, and on the way to practice, the two complement each other and are indispensable.

Therefore, now at the beginning of the week, the practice of Yunjiquan is resumed every day, and of course the meditation continues in the middle of the night.

In the afternoon of the next day, the flying phoenix flew to the dragon slope.

At the beginning of the week, the dagger sharpened a wooden wrench, and after putting it on, he raised his bow and slowly pulled the bowstring, which was pulled away little by little under the action of his great force, but the steel cable was too thin and made an unpleasant creaking sound.

In the end, the bowstring was pulled to a half-open state and could no longer be pulled, Zhou Zhizhi slowly loosened the bowstring, his face was red, and the green tendons burst out, he didn't expect that the cold iron was just right as a stick, but as a bow, it was so hard, when it was pulled to the extent of half-open, it was no longer possible, you know, he can now carry more than two thousand catties of weight.

After releasing the cold iron bow, Zhou Zhichu's forehead was slightly sweaty, his hands were trembling slightly, and a deep mark was pulled out by the bowstring on his fingers, which was about to wear out, and he could no longer use it.

"You can't do this bow, the bow body is too hard, and the bowstring is too hard to pull it open. Knife said, standing behind him.

"You're here. "At the beginning of the week, he had been paying attention to the cold iron bow, and only then did he realize that the knife was coming.

Since Xiaodao proposed to Blacksmith Zhang to marry Xiaohua, Xiaohua has to beat Xiaohua every time she sees Xiaohua, Xiaodao wants to resist, but suddenly finds that he can't win Xiaohua.

At the beginning of the week, I thought it was the knife that let the little flower, but slowly found that the strength of the little flower is not as good as the knife, but the dexterity is far better than the knife, which is a bit like the girl in white in the first realm of the day after tomorrow, and the ten girls in white are not as good as the beginning of the week, but others do not fight with you, but fight for sword moves.

Now the knife is in the same situation, he can't catch Xiaohua, so he can only be beaten, it can be seen that the forging effect of Zhao's body is mainly light, and the effect is quite good.

Of course, this has something to do with the knife's reluctance to hurt Xiaohua, and it's hard to say if you really want to fight hard.

But then again, Xiaohua didn't really want to hurt Xiaodao, and Zhou was a little uncertain at the beginning.

"Is this your bow? It's ugly. ”

Zhou Chuchu rolled his eyes and said, "Lend me your wrench." ”

The wrench finger of the knife is also handed down from the ancestors, made of iron pear wood, and after several generations of rubbing, it shines like red jade.

"Your bow is too hard, and the string is so thin, I can't stand it. "The knife didn't give him the wrench.

"It's really too hard, I can carry two thousand catties, and I can't pull this bow, how many stones do you say this bow is?"

"Can you carry two thousand pounds?!" The knife was shocked, is this still a human.

Zhou Zhichu scratched his head and said, "I haven't tried it, but it's not much worse." ”

The knife was amazed, but he still said: "You can carry two thousand catties, but it doesn't mean that you have two thousand catties in your arms, and you have the skill to pull the bow. ”

Ercheng also has 400 catties, and it is only half-open, so wouldn't it take a thousand catties of arm strength to pull the full moon?

Drawing the bow is a force technique, this technique from the bottom up, the strength of the legs and feet and the strength of the waist are combined in one place, and the strength of the body is extremely strong, a bit like the meaning of "rooting under the feet" as the old man usually says.

For Zhou Zhichu, who had practiced Yunjiquan, this technique was not difficult, as soon as he said it, he also had an idea of what would happen if he used True Qi.

"Why are you here today?"

"I just came back from hunting and came by here to see. ”

There was no prey on the knife, and Zhou Chuchu asked, "Didn't you hunt anything today?"

"Not every time you can get a harvest, I don't dare to go deep in the woods. Knife shrugged, he wasn't short, but he was young, his body hadn't opened yet, and he looked a little thin.

Looking at the cold iron bow in Zhou Chuchu's hand, the knife said again: "...... The steel wire is a bowstring, it is not elastic enough to break easily, and it is so thin, are you sure you want to use this bow?"

The bowstring made of steel cable is very thin compared to the whole bow, and I don't know what material it is, although it squeaked just now, but nothing happened at all.

Zhou Chuchu said: "I want to try, and I don't have a choice." ”

"Then you'll need a wrench. ”

"How's the iron wrench?"

"You are a steel wire, even an iron wrench can be worn through, and the wrench must be harder than steel, and it must not hurt the bowstring. ”

The boy was speechless, a wrench is still so troublesome, do you want to use Xingchen steel?

Xingchen steel is falling from the sky, just a general term, it has many kinds, some are scarce but useless, cold iron is one of them, the material can not be said to be bad, the biggest defect is the difficulty of forging, so it is often called chicken ribs. But no matter what, it is an indisputable fact that Xingchen steel is harder than iron.

"Is there no way?" Zhou was a little unwilling at the beginning.

"Yes, you can wrap the part of the bow string in the middle of the bowstring. Knife chuckled. His one-stone bow is not used, but he has experience.

Zhou Zhichu was stunned, "It's so simple?"

Knife said, "You can try it." ”

Wrap the fingers with animal skins to pull the bowstring position, so that the bowstring and wrench will not be damaged because of the cushion of the animal skin, and the animal skin will not be easily damaged if it is soft and sticky to the steel cable bowstring, and even if it is damaged after a long time, it is a different piece.

"This is to overcome rigidity with softness?!" Zhou Chuchu felt at the beginning.

The knife smiled, lifted the steel fork and said, "I'm going back, you can try it yourself." ”

"It's getting late, let's go back together, and get a hide from you. ”

"Hmm. ”

"Senior brother hunts every day, do you still have cultivation?"

"Well, practice every night. ”

Xiaodao is very serious about cultivation, as long as he doesn't hunt, he is practicing a lot of the time, as for why, Zhou Chuchu is very clear in his heart.

"How long does it take to break through?"

"It's still early...... Senior brother has broken through, it's really enviable......"

"I'm just one step ahead......"

At the beginning of the week, he walked on the hillside with a bow and a knife on his back. The two of them chatted sentence by sentence, and smoke had risen from the mountain village in front of the mountain.
