Chapter 41: The Archer and the Bow

The short and fat old man Siqu turned on the inspection mode as soon as he got out of the car, if Yun Yao didn't meet the requirements, then he would definitely leave without looking back, and he didn't even have to unload his luggage.

Yun Yao looked at the three-finger-wide and palm-thick wooden strip in his hand, and thought to himself, do you still need to try this? Hold both ends with both hands and fold them down firmly.

Syllable!

Yun Yao had just used five parts of force, and the wood was broken.

The wrinkles on Si Quyuan's face froze, his eyes finally opened, he looked up and down, and then smiled: "Haha, Jishan people really didn't lie to me, this is indeed a good seedling of a peerless shooter, I was not wrong." ”

The black brother named Ya on the side also nodded dumbfounded, he knew the strength of the wood, he used his greatest strength to bend it, and he had no ability to break it at all.

"Uncle, I don't need to compensate for this, you want me to use force, and I only used half of my force to break it." Yun Yao said innocently.

"Half the force?" Si Qu was stunned for a moment, and then laughed again, wrinkles huddled together: "Ya, carry the luggage, it seems that we are going to live for a while." ”

"Yes, Teacher." This little black brother is also a bow-maker and a disciple of the old man.

The two carts were full of tools and materials for making bows, and the old man was an expert, and there were two large boxes for the tools alone, all of which were carried to the house.

"I'm here to help." Yun Yao's strength does not need to be in vain.

Si Qu knew that he had come to the right place, but he did not immediately enter the work, but first observed Yun Yao's archery habits and movements, and he also brought several bows for Yun Yao to test shoot.

"How does it feel?" Every time he used Siqu's bow, he would ask Yun Yao like this, asking her how she thought.

It's easy to use, I can't say what makes it better, but it's definitely better than the bow made by the teacher: "There is an indescribable feeling, that is, I think it is very easy to use." ”

"If you want to become a peerless archer, you must not only understand yourself, understand the bow and arrow, but also understand the connection between you and the bow, and understand the feeling that the bow gives you, otherwise you can't become a peerless archer after all." Apparently the master bow maker also has his own understanding of the archer: "I let you try different bows so that you can experience the differences, so that you know what kind of bow you want." ”

Professional, Ji She nodded again and again when he heard it, he used to be a soldier and then a mountain man, and he didn't need to enjoy any custom bows, and he didn't understand the gap between bows and bows, but he felt that Si Qu was right. I can teach Yun Yao archery, but I can't teach Yun Yao how to choose a bow and arrow.

Well, Yun Yao can only savor it, and by the way, he will take the bow lesson of the boss Qu.

Ji She only taught Yun Yao to shoot, and Si Qu taught her a bow, which are completely two completely different courses, both of which are very in-depth.

"There are six bows and eight arrows, that is, six different bows, eight different arrows, different bows have different qualities, and different arrows have different charms, just like every archer has different personalities and habits, so when choosing a bow and arrow, you must choose a bow and arrow that suits you in order to give full play to the maximum power of the archer." Siqu said, and then he began to talk about the six bows and eight arrows.

This knowledge helps Yun Yao understand how she feels when she uses different bows and arrows, and only when she masters the different senses will she know which combination is best suitable.

This is the Western Zhou Dynasty, and so many statements have been refined, Yun Yao has nothing to say except admiration. It feels like having glasses, so you have to choose the right comfortable frame, the right weight, and the right quality of the lenses at the right price.

The so-called feeling is actually whether they have a tacit understanding with each other and whether they are suitable.

Although Ji She said before that a good archer does not choose a bow, the craftsman who specializes in making bows and arrows obviously will not agree with this statement, and if you don't choose a bow, you can't show the strength of an archer, and you must choose a bow to show your full strength, and you have to choose it very carefully. Besides, Yun Yao has not reached the level of not choosing a bow, otherwise Ji She would not have invited experts back for his disciples.

“…… Among the six bows, the king bow is the most domineering, and the killing arrow is the most dangerous among the eight arrows, but the peerless archer does not necessarily have to use the most domineering bow and the most dangerous arrow. ”

Yun Yao took these to heart, carefully felt the differences between different bows, and looked for the type of bow and arrow that suited her.

Si Qu nodded secretly, Ji She is a famous teacher, Yun Yao is also a high apprentice, he can see that Yun Yao has unlimited potential, if she can become a peerless archer, then her bow can also be famous through the ages, and she will die without regrets. I definitely have to do my best to build a peerless bow, and I must do it with all my might.

It feels more and more accurate, in the past, Yun Yao only knew archery, and she didn't know how to judge the quality of the bow and the quality of the arrow, but now she can be regarded as able to say something one, two, three, four.

It is only through the accumulation of experience that one can gain this understanding of the difference between a bow and an arrow. At the same time, Yun Yao felt more and more clearly what kind of bow she wanted, and through the test shooting, her needs became clearer and clearer.

Strength is only one of them, you have to be fast enough when you pull the bow, and the bow body should be heavier, of course, the grip is best to be replaced, because you will grow up in the future, and the hand will become bigger......

Shooting again and again, Yun Yao's thoughts became clear, only by conveying these needs to Si Qu could the bow man be able to make a good bow.

"You can teach." Si Qu was also very happy to see that Yun Yao had comprehended the key so quickly, because some archers could not comprehend his teachings in their lives, and they only knew archery but could not comprehend the differences and differences at all, and they could not understand what kind of bow they needed in their lives.

Bow makers aren't roundworms in the stomachs of archers, they can make great bows and arrows, but they also need to be smart enough to let the bow makers know what they need. The archer can't say what he wants, and the bow master can't make something out of nothing.

If even the archer doesn't know what he needs, and the bow master does make it, the archer is afraid that he will not be satisfied, but will ruin the master's own reputation.

"A good bowmaker makes a bow and arrow for a good archer." Siqu said, it's finally time to start. Of course, this is the saying of high emotional intelligence, and the saying of low emotional intelligence is that smart bow makers will never make bows for stupid shooters.

Si Qu is the best bow maker in the Lu Kingdom, and Yun Yao is also a smart shooter, and the two work together very happily. Yun Yao has already spoken out his needs, and now it is Siqu's turn to show his true skills.

"A strong bow with a large arc, a black bowstring, heavy, fast, and strong." The moment Si Qu grasped the tool, he was no longer just a cute little old man, but the most powerful bow-maker in the Lu country, and there were as many princes who asked him to make bows as if they were carp crossing the river, but he only made bows and arrows suitable for real archers.

A workbench was set up in the small courtyard, and with the cooperation of the apprentices, the strong atmosphere belonging to the craftsman permeated the grass house, which was awe-inspiring.
