Chapter 1683
Thorn forest, with a lot of thorns.
On one branch, there are enough to grow thirty or fifty roots.
However, what Zhang Da wanted was not like this.
The spines on the periphery, because of the relationship that are patronized all year round, bear very little, and the years are not long enough.
These spines, although sharp enough, are not very tough.
The penetration is full, but the force is extremely poor.
Even if it is a fist hit from the side, it will break.
If it is used to kill people, it is enough, but if it is used to hunt, it will not work.
Their target is not small insects, because small insects have less flesh and more carapaces, and once this shell is separated from the body of the insect, it will become very brittle, which means that it has no value in making equipment.
Only big insects are the target of hunting.
Large insects usually have extremely thick body fat, and even if they penetrate to a depth of half a meter, they cannot reach the vital point and are difficult to kill.
And at this time, the hardness of the spines is very important.
Under the extremely high hardness, it will have extremely strong toughness, almost difficult to break, once pierced into the body, as the giant insect struggles, the spines will go deeper and deeper.
Usually, finding a thorn that is hard enough to kill a giant worm is only a dozen or so.
Following behind Zhang Da, after advancing a distance of almost more than a thousand meters, Zhang Da stopped.
"It's here!"
When Yang Xiaokai heard this, he couldn't help but look up.
At this moment, there are a lot of spines around, densely packed.
And the thorns that grow around it are even more amazing, and every thorn is covered with terrifying thorns.
Taking a breath, Zhang Da's eyes became a little solemn.
The destination has arrived, and the most dangerous place has arrived. This terrible thorn forest is the base camp of jumping insects.
Zhang Da's tone was very light, and he said very lightly: "Collect the first one as soon as possible!"
While speaking, Zhang Da was also ready to attack.
The jumping insects in the thorn forest are terrifying.
And the most terrifying time is undoubtedly when you have just entered, and the only weapons you have on yourself and others at this time are only three stone knives, and this kind of weapon, if it is against the same human being, it can be said to be a sharp weapon, but if it is against the jumping insects, it is very reluctant.
Jumping insects are usually as tall as one person, and although the skin is not as hard as the armor, it is not something that can be pierced casually by a stone knife.
"Good!"
Yang Xiaokai nodded, and directly grasped the thorn closest to him.
For Yang Xiaokai, who did not hesitate to stretch out his hand, Zhang Da didn't say anything, he had already told the other party the method of taking thorns, obviously listening to the ear, naturally not as fast as practice, if you want to master the method of taking thorns, you can only train slowly.
Although the thorns are very hard, it is almost impossible to cut them off with the hardness of a stone knife, but the good thing is that the thorns do not grow from the wattles, but grow on them, so as long as you control the strength and use left and right force, you can shake them down.
Therefore, in order to avoid the tip of the spike breaking, you need to put the palm of your hand inside, avoid the sharpest and most fragile part, and hold the thicker part that has enough toughness.
Looking at Yang Xiaokai's movements, Zhang Da nodded slightly.
There is no doubt that up to now, the other party has acted almost according to what he told last night.
This is undoubtedly much better than the two little guys, Tiger Baby and Niu Baby.
However, even if you know the method, it is not achieved overnight, and it is a very common thing to make a judgment according to the unfamiliarity of the mastery.
If you divide it by strength, you can take one in one moment to meet the standard, and you can take one hundred in one moment to achieve the goal.
Looking at Zhang Da, who pinched the thorns and began to shake, he didn't say anything, at this time it was basically a water grinder, there was no shortcut, only a familiar hand.
Of course, failure is not terrible, the first time I came here, I failed many times, only to grasp the point of taking the thorn, Yang Xiaokai is not a novice, the difficulty of taking the thorn should be relatively reduced, even if it is really not successful, the big deal is to wait for yourself to work harder, and take more by yourself....
Burst!
Just as Zhang Da was thinking, a soft sound came from Yang Xiaokai's side, but seeing a smile on his face, he took out the thorn in his hand.
Succeed!
Zhang Da Siwei was stunned for a moment, and it was done?
How can it be??
You must know that Yang Xiaokai stretched out his hand to go in, and he didn't even have time for a few breaths before and after.
Burst!
After taking out one and putting it down, Yang Xiaokai immediately stretched out his hand, and almost didn't spend much effort, he directly took off the second one, and then poof!
One by one.
In the short time that Zhang Da was stunned, Yang Xiaokai successively took down more than a dozen roots.
Stopping, Yang Xiaokai glanced at Zhang Da, who was speechless and motionless with some surprise: "What's wrong?"
"Huh!"
Zhang Da was stunned, then shook his head and said, "No, it's okay, take the thorn." ”
"Hmm!"
Yang Xiaokai nodded and began to pick up the thorns again.
It is indeed quite difficult to remove the thorns.
While taking the thorns, Yang Xiaokai was also relieved at the moment, thanks to his physical recovery, his inspiration was extremely strong, and he could immediately grasp its structure when he touched the thorns, so don't look at his simplicity, the various flavors are only known to himself.
And as Zhang Da began, the thorns in front of the two of them were stacked.
After a full quarter of an hour, Zhang Da let out a breath, glanced at Yang Xiaokai with some complicated feelings, and said, "It's okay." ”
On the ground, there are already more than 200 thorns on the ground at this moment.
Obviously, Yang Xiaokai's side is close to one hundred and twenty, but Zhang Da's side is less than eighty.
Fuck, what a hell of a life.
It's just that it's just a matter of getting it faster, but it's actually faster than yourself?
"Okay. Yang Xiaokai didn't know Zhang Da's thoughts, after all, the other party's expression was already stereotyped, and obviously being in a daze and stereotype were almost printed out of the same mold.
"Let's make it first. ”
Signaling Yang Xiaokai to pick up the thorns, Zhang Da directly took Yang Xiaokai and retreated to the outside, where there were fewer thorn forests.
Zhang Da took a breath and said directly: "Do you remember the method I said yesterday?"
Yang Xiaokai nodded: "Remember." ”
Zhang Dadao: "Okay, you make one for me first." ”
"Hmm. ”
Nodding, Yang Xiaokai took a thorn, the tip of the thorn was carried on his shoulder, and his thick tail was on the stone on the ground.
Picking up the stone knife, Yang Xiaokai took a light breath, his five fingers suddenly clenched hard, and cut it with one knife.
Cha!
The section on the thick tail was directly cut off by Yang Xiaokai.
After the knife fell, Yang Xiaokai slowly closed his eyes and began to reminisce about the feeling brought by the first knife.
On the side, Zhang Da's eyes flashed, and he nodded directly.
A good knife, hurry up and sharpen, the mastery of power has reached a very high level, it is worthy of being able to escape from the multi-legged long worm nest, but this foundation is no longer lost to the hunter.
Although the knife is good, it can be seen that the other party is obviously making it for the first time, and the position of the first knife is not too good, and the cut is too much.
This kind of cutting method is close to the center, and the next step must be to grasp the angle and strength, otherwise a mistake will basically be wasted on the handle.
Of course, it doesn't matter.
I wanted to make the first thorn spear by myself, but after destroying dozens of thorns, I barely managed to make a usable one, Yang Xiaokai's strength is much better than his own original, and after having more than ten roots, he can basically make something that can be used.
After a hundred roots, three or five good artifacts can be made basically excellent.
It's yourself, and now it's only seven out of ten bad weapons, three bad weapons, of course, when you feel good, it's possible to make a good device.
Zhang Da thought about it, Yang Xiaokai opened his eyes, and it seemed that the feeling was over.
Turn the angle, click, a knife.
Turn the angle, click, a knife.
Turn the angle, click, a knife.
Three knives in succession directly cut the tail of the spiny into a square.
Then come four knives and directly cut off the excess corners.
Soon, a thorny spear that was round like a stick from head to tail took shape on Yang Xiaokai's palm.
Spear weapon, can be stabbed, can be thrown.
The spiny spear, on the other hand, is more used for throwing weapons, after all, its toughness is always inferior to stone tools, let alone iron.
Therefore, the performance of a spiny spear depends on the water chestnut angle of its tail.
The closer it is to the shape of the thorny body, the better it is, if it can be rounded as one, it is the top thorn spear, which belongs to the excellent weapon, and the killing is extremely strong, and the top hunters use it, which is enough to achieve the point of adding three percent of the damage.
Therefore, as Yang Xiaokai's first thorn spear was completed, Zhang Da's expression froze.
Staring at the superior weapon-level blade in Yang Xiaokai's hand, which was only circulating in hunter circles, he directly forgot his words.
At this moment, Yang Xiaokai, who had completed the production of a spiny spear, did not notice Zhang Da's expression, and after putting down the one in his hand, he picked up one again and started directly.
Four knives, square.
Four knives, rounded.
Two-handled, five-handled, ten-handled, high-level thorn spears were made by Yang Xiaokai one after another.
Soon, all the thorns around him were made into round thorn spears by Yang Xiaokai.
Call!
With a long breath, Yang Xiaokai wiped the sweat on his head, flipped the thorn spear in his hand, turned his head and smiled: "I haven't done this kind of manual operation for a long time, it seems that there is no rustiness in terms of skills, huh?
Zhang Da didn't speak, just stared blankly at the thorny spear that he also made when Yang Xiaokai made it, and was a little suspicious of life.
His own unevenness, the other party's sleekness.
The huge gap directly made Zhang Da start to doubt the ancestors who taught him to make spiny spears.
Once upon a time, in the face of his own thorny spear, his ancestors said that he was a genius and had the possibility of becoming a craftsman.
Now, after comparing his thorn spear with Yang Xiaokai's thorn spear, Zhang Da suddenly thought of the comment Zhang Yi gave when he went back that day and handed the thorn spear in his hand to his father. "It's really talented, but it's not your talent, it's your face. Just this kind of thing, to say it's garbage is to praise it. Be your hunter, hunter may be the best hunter in the future, as for the apprentice? ”
Zhang Da had always been a little skeptical, after all, he had never seen a better spear than he made.
Now....
Although he doesn't complain, and he doesn't have so many rich expressions, Zhang Da's heart is undoubtedly a little broken at this moment.
After taking a look at his own thorn spear and Yang Xiaokai's thorn spear, he took a deep breath, understood the gap between himself and the craftsman, and said directly: "I didn't expect Xiao Kai's skills to be so good, just the first time you can actually cultivate the thorn spear to such a point." ”
Yang Xiaokai smiled and said, "I have learned this skill before, but now I can only re-master it." ”
Zhang Dadao: "Even so, it's very remarkable, I can't do it, it's just like this, alas, I knew that Xiaokai had this level, so I should let you stay in the village for more time, go to my father to learn the method of making weapons, maybe you can become a craftsman." Without any hesitation, Zhang Da directly repeated what his ancestors told him at that time.
"Apprentice?"
Yang Xiaokai thought for a moment, and immediately smiled and said, "If my level can be satisfied..." ”
"Rest assured. Zhang laughed and said: "My father has a lot of knowledge about making tools, even if he can't become a craftsman, as long as he can make the tools that his father has, it is very powerful." ”
"Well, when I go back, I'll talk to the clan elder. ”
Obviously, Zhang Da at this moment didn't know what the excellent weapon made by Yang Xiaokai meant.
In fact, Yang Xiaokai didn't know the requirements of this world in terms of making weapons, so neither of them realized how difficult it was to make excellent weapons.
Zhang Da smiled and said, "In that case, the rest will be handed over to Xiao Kai." ”
Yang Xiaokai didn't hesitate: "Okay." ”
Soon, it was made again.
As time went by, Zhang Da was satisfied with the more than 100 thorn spears made by Yang Xiaokai and said, "With this batch of weapons, the next hunt will undoubtedly be..." ”
Halfway through the words, Zhang Da's expression suddenly tightened, and he suddenly looked around.
Yang Xiaokai felt the change in his breath for the first time, and his brows furrowed and he couldn't help but look around, and only after making sure that there was no movement did he say, "What's wrong?"
"Something is wrong. ”
Zhang Da took a deep breath, "It's too quiet!"
"Quiet?"
Yang Xiaokai's eyes wrinkled slightly, indeed, the huge thorn forest, except for the sound of the wind, there was almost no other sound, this quiet, a little abnormal.
Zhang Da's expression was a little dignified, although he still did not get close to the territory of the jumping insects, but this huge thorn forest is basically the activity territory of the jumping insects, and as usual, several jumping insects have already appeared, and now, under the completion of so many thorn spears, there is not a single jumping worm.
Not only that, although the overlord in the thorn forest is a jumping worm, it does not mean that there are only jumping worms in it.
Jumping worms, which are essentially carnivorous insects, feed on the mites unique to the thorn forest, which can be said to be extremely small in size and spread all over the thorn forest.
But in fact, I've been here for so long, and I haven't found it.
"Gollum!"
Just when Zhang Da's expression was solemn and Yang Xiaokai couldn't help shrinking his eyes, a small but thunderous voice sounded behind them.
In an instant, Zhang Da's face turned directly white, and Yang Xiaokai couldn't help but shrink his pupils.
Damn, how could it be???
Turning his head slowly, he looked at where the voice was coming from.
He saw that about dozens of meters away, in the dense thorn forest, after a moment of silence, a figure jumped out and landed directly not far from Yang Xiaokai and Zhang Da.
Zhang Da's eyes shrank, he took a sharp breath, and said with a pale face: "It's a beast !!."
Yang Xiaokai's face was not good-looking at this moment, although he had thought about some questions before, but now when he saw this thing that jumped out, his expression became more and more solemn.
This thing... Is it a toad?
And is it still a toad that has reached the size of a small house??
Damn, do you want to play me???
