Volume 1 Danger Chapter 12 Effects, and Weapons
Yu Chao was very excited, while Yu Wenjing seemed calmer, only showing a hint of joy at first, and then silently began to familiarize himself with the body that was somewhat stagnant because of the surge in strength.
I have to say that Yu Chao still looks a little immature, in such an environment, such a jump, it is not a good thing to take it lightly, Xiao Jing hesitated to mention him.
But think about it, forget it, with the relationship between the two is not intimate, it is inevitable to say that these are a bit profound.
But it's time for them to come back to reality, Xiao Jing clapped his hands, motioned for the two to stop, and said, "Okay, let's talk about it after we are familiar with the power, and next, it's time to think about the most important thing." ”
Both of them stopped their movements, and Yu Chao was still slightly loosening his fists, but they both looked at Xiao Jing suspiciously.
Xiao Jing said solemnly: "The problem of survival, to put it more carefully, is the problem of food. You must know how dangerous this place is, and personally, I can fight against the lowest predators here, but it's not enough!"
"And you have been strengthened by the snake egg, and you have the initial capital to protect yourself, what you lack is only skill and experience. ”
"Next, I will prepare your weapons and do the most basic training, and you will go out with me to forage for food!"
Hearing this, Yu Chao's eyes lit up, although they hadn't seen much of Xiao Jing's strength, but that was only because the enemy was too strong.
The only time they saw it was enough for them to look forward to it, Xiao Jing killed the mutant gray rabbit with one sword!
Yu Chao said excitedly: "Training, is it martial arts, or martial arts?"
"Neither," Xiao Jing said slowly, "I can only teach you an hour, and after an hour, we will set off to find food." ”
"So I can't teach you that," and I can't teach either, at this time, I made an oath in front of the portrait of the patriarch, Xiao Jing thought secretly.
Then, he continued, "I will teach you some practical techniques and dodging moves, which will greatly improve your chances of survival. You don't have to know the reason for these actions, just do them and memorize them! It's important!
Xiao Jing said very seriously, Yu Chao seemed to find the feeling of being trained by the instructor during military training, and subconsciously replied: "Understood!"
"Very well, then, I'll start making weapons first. ”
"Yu Chao!"
"Here!" Yu Chao subconsciously replied.
"I saw a lot of rattan growing next to the hole before, you go and cut a little bit and come back, remember, it should be dry but not dry, the kind that is tough. ”
Xiao Jing handed him the short dagger he carried, Yu Chao went as he said, and the rattan grew next to the entrance of the cave, Xiao Jing observed it, and there should be no danger.
Then, he pulled out a large pile of things from the pocket of his tattered protective suit, several sharp claws about ten centimeters long, and a special, twenty centimeters long, almost ten centimeters wide at its widest point.
Ten centimeters long were the claws of the giant rabbit he had killed, an agile monster with sharp claws, and the longer one was dug out of the middle finger of the lizardmonster's front paw.
I knew that I would have dug two more, but now I have to make two different things.
He took out a small piece of delicate round pie-shaped stone, which was a whetstone, and their saber was made of special material and high precision, and it was necessary to equip it with a special high-precision whetstone to keep it sharp.
Handing the grinding stone to Yu Wenjing, Xiao Jing said: "You use this, polish these rabbit claws, and grind them as straight as possible." ”
At this time, Yu Chao had already returned, bringing back a large handful of rattan.
Xiao Jing took a cursory inspection, after all, it was a weapon made for himself, Yu Chao chose it very carefully, and the quality of the rattan was indeed excellent.
Rattan is a natural woven material with a tough texture, smooth feel and excellent elasticity, also known as rattan strips.
Xiao Jing said: "I have two materials here, this lizard claw, can make a short knife, plus a handle, it can be forty centimeters, but these rabbit claws ...... Do any of you know how to shoot arrows?"
Yu Chao's eyes widened when he heard this: "I will, my cousin often takes me to a shooting club to play with bows and arrows, I know a little." ”
Oh, this is a surprise, Xiao Jing originally planned to use rabbit claws to fix on the trunk of a tree to make a mace if no one can, but since someone can shoot arrows, then in terms of hunting, it is obvious that long-range weapons are more advantageous.
After making up his mind, Xiao Jing said: "You just stay here to deal with the material, Yu Chao, you polish the rattan smoothly and soak the rattan with mud." There are still a few materials left, and I'm going to collect them. ”
Xiao Jing put on the tattered protective suit, which was somewhat useful, and went out of the hole again.
Before, he remembered that there was a fern not far away, less than a hundred meters away from the entrance of the cave, Xiao Jing carefully paid attention to the movement around him, and quickly and quietly trotted to the side of the plant.
Although he is eighty percent sure that there is almost no danger if he does not enter the depths, accidents can happen at any time, and the reason why he does not let Yu Yue come is also this consideration, he has some power to fight back, and he has not been trained.
Xiao Jing pulled out the knife from his back, the snow bright blade did not show the slightest stain, and the exquisite hundred forging cloud patterns revealed a cold breath, this knife seemed to be a lot heavier than before, but his strength was good, and it was easy to use.
Xiao Jing swung his knife and cut off a large branch with a diameter of ten centimeters, and with the sharpness of his Tang knife, it actually shocked his hand.
Finally cut it down, Xiao Jing put away the knife and dragged it away, staying outside for a second longer, the danger was one more point, he had already seen a black shadow in the bushes ready to move.
Back in the cave, Xiao Jing saw that the two of them had almost done the preparations, the rabbit's claws were sharpened and the rattan was polished smooth, because there was no river around, so they had to use the moist soil under the cave wall to soak the rattan.
He began to process the materials he had brought back, each leaf of these ferns was two meters long, and the entire branch that Xiao Jing had cut back stretched out to a full seven or eight meters long.
Xiao Jing cut off the leaves one by one, removed the mesophyll, leaving only the middle leaf stalk, cut off the middle one finger thick, one meter long leaf stalk, and handed it to Yu Chao to polish and smooth.
There are a total of six rabbit claws suitable for arrows, and Xiao Jing intercepted six arrow shafts, which are tall and solid. After polishing, it is round and smooth, and the key is that the center of gravity is easy to grasp, which is really a good material for making arrow shafts.
Xiao Jing punched an eye at the base of the rabbit's claw, made a notch at the top of the arrow shaft to jam the arrow, and also made a transparent hole in the opposite position.
Then the rabbit claws were stuck on the shaft of the arrow, wound with rattan crosses, through two small holes, and fixed together strongly, as for the tail feathers, Xiao Jing had no materials in his hands, so he had to reluctantly use the blades to deal with them.
In this way, a feather arrow was made, Xiao Jing looked at the feather arrow, and felt very satisfied, he had no experience in making feather arrows, but he had just heard from his predecessors that he had simply foreseen the practice.
It's good to be able to do this, but what the effect will be can only be tested in practice.
Yu Chao and Yu Wenjing watched intently, Yu Chao said that he often went to the archery club, and he should know a lot about what feather arrows look like.
Xiao Jing said: "Do you see it clearly? Next, you will make it yourself, and I will help you make the bow." ”
Yu Chao hurriedly responded, took a few materials, and started to make feather arrows from the side.
At this time, Xiao Jing stopped and arranged for Yu Wenjing to continue to polish the lizard's claws, and after making the bow and arrow, he helped it make the short knife.
Next, Xiao Jing checked the materials he brought back, strictly speaking, wet wood should not be used for wooden hard bows, but it is expedient, and it can only be so.
Limited to the material, what Xiao Jing can do is only the simplest, choosing a suitable branch, about less than two meters, punching holes at both ends, three rattans are kneaded into a twist shape, and two layers pass through the small holes.
Xiao Jing bent the branch down to a height of one meter and a half, fixed the rattan, wound it at both ends, and a solid wood hard bow was formed.
Don't look at this bow is not good-looking, but the strength is definitely enough! The plants here are all tough, and with rabbit claw arrows, I am afraid that one blow can shatter the iron armor!
After playing for a while, Xiao Jing put it aside and asked Yu Wenjing to bring over the lizard claws that had not yet been polished, and began to punch holes in the gourd as usual.
But this time, Xiao Jing made three holes at the base of the claw, selected a branch of 20 centimeters suitable for handholding, punched the three holes, and fixed the rattan layer by layer.
For bows and arrows, this short knife is very simple to make, but the winding is strong and durable, the material used for this knife is the largest and sharpest claw on the giant lizard's body, and it is the most powerful creature Xiao Jing has killed, and the power is absolutely strong!
"Alright!" Xiao Jing looked up and saw that Yu Chao was making the last arrow, which was nearing the end, and he handed the short knife to Yu Wenjing and asked her to polish the last bit.
Then, the preparation of the weapon is completed, Xiao Jing said: "I will give you half an hour to familiarize yourself with your weapon, and then start teaching you actual combat!"
Xiao Jing watched the two of them get the weapons, and they couldn't put it down, but Yu Wenjing was obviously not too good at using knives, and he also gave a few words of advice on the side.
Short knives can be divided into two types: forehand knives and backhand knives, relatively speaking, the forehand is naturally the most convenient way to hold the knife, while the backhand knife is more dangerous and difficult to defend, full of attack power.
After Xiao Jing explained to her, Yu Wenjing experimented a few times, and then decisively chose to hold the knife in her backhand. Xiao Jing was a little surprised.
And Yu Chao on the other side found that he couldn't pull the bow to the fullest!
You know, he has just doubled his strength! Xiao Jing looked forward to the performance of this bow more and more.
Two hours later, Xiao Jing saw that the two of them were almost familiar with their respective weapons and strengths, so he began to arrange his own arrangements. He handed his short dagger to Yu Chao again, giving him some self-protection ability after getting close.
