Chapter 59 Bamboo Crossbow

PreviousBack to directoryNext
Later, Yan Laoer found out that the Hu brothers were very good at playing slingshots.

The only two beef tendon slingshots in the village belong to their brothers.

It is said that I bought it after a lot of hard work and treasured it very much.

Prepare to pass it on to children and grandchildren from generation to generation.

The men in the village quickly mastered the art of archery.

A small notch makes shooting arrows easier.

Now, these guys are looking forward to the arrival of the pheasants.

The hares have appeared, can the pheasants be far behind?

The craving for the meat is secondary, but the key is that they need the pheasant feathers very much.

I want to make chicken feather arrows...

Yan Laoer came back dejected.

He felt that the iron crossbow in his hand no longer smelled good!

Yan Yu ran to play with her friends. It was said that the little girls planned to let go of the other two little rabbits. The children felt that this was a very important event and must be treated seriously.

I called all the children in the village under the age of nine to come over and watched the two little rabbits leave together...

Li Xuemei was a little sleepy at first, but when she saw her father was unhappy, she asked what was wrong.

Yan Laoer seems to have found someone to complain to, and he keeps talking non-stop. From this, we can also see who Yan Yu looks more like.

"So?" Li Xuemei listened for a long time, and she didn't know whether Yan Laoer was depressed that he couldn't use the crossbow more, or whether he felt that everyone had a bow and he was the only one who didn't, so he was making more trouble.

"This iron crossbow is a bit powerful. To be honest, it's fine when I'm alone. When I go hunting rabbits with a group of children, I don't dare to fire the arrow, for fear that it will miss a little and hurt someone." Yan Laoer said: "

You don’t even know how scary this crossbow is, and only half of it hits the tree. If it pierces someone, that’s okay.”

Li Xuemei thought for a moment and said, "Bring over the charcoal pencils you gave our daughter."

She straightened her back and pulled out a piece of linen she had cut.

Yan Laoer found the pen, handed it over, and asked her: "What do you want to draw?"

Li Xuemei told him while painting: "This shorter bamboo has one piece in the middle. Remove the excess, leaving the upper and lower pieces. Close them and use nails, not iron, but bamboo nails, to nail them together.

Then dig a hole in the middle and cross a piece of bamboo with slightly pointed ends...

You see, it is a cross. Then, nail a small bamboo strip separately at this position...

And in this position, use a knife to make a small opening...

A few thin hemp ropes, maybe three or four, twisted into one and tied on both sides...

That’s probably what it means, this is the bamboo crossbow.”

Li Xuemei asked the stupid boy her father: "Do you know how to do it?"

It took Yan Laoer a long time to find his voice: "What is this? Bamboo crossbow? Leader! When did you know how to do this?!"

Li Xuemei sighed softly: "You forgot that I told you that there was a student whose parent was watching videos at home, and there happened to be a small patch of bamboo planted behind the house, so he followed suit and made one, it was a bamboo crossbow.

Just do it, and ask the child to help record the video. The child is also naughty. He brought it to school to show off to his classmates, but the class teacher was frightened.

Later, we experimented and found that this bamboo crossbow really works. It is not heavy and can shoot quite far. The materials are simple and easy to obtain, just bamboo and hemp rope, and the bamboo arrows can be whittled casually.

The child's father came to school and was so angry that he beat him up several times on the spot. Some teachers were curious, so he showed the video to us. Don't tell me, it's really easy. You can remember it after watching it once..."

Yan Laoer:......

"You already know how to do it, why should we replace the iron one?" Yan Laoer was speechless.

Although the replacement was not a loss, I only used an iron pot.

But iron pots were also very expensive in ancient times, right?

"I think the iron crossbow can shoot far, so you can stand farther away and it will be safer." Li Xuemei said.

Yan Laoer was moved. His leader didn't like to say anything, but in fact he was thinking about him very much in his heart.

She added: "Besides, I didn't expect the people in our village to be so capable."

"Hahaha! As soon as this picture comes out, all their bows are younger brothers!" Yan Laoer said impatiently: "I went to them and said, it's rare to encounter a bamboo forest. If you miss it, you don't know when we will meet again.

"

Li Xuemei smiled and nodded, watching him walk away in a hurry.

Yawned.

I lay down slowly, and I was still thinking vaguely: It turns out that I can't make a bow, and I'm too embarrassed to ask for help, so I can't play with everyone?

Her daughter never seemed to grow up, and it was not against the rules to become short and short.

Even my daughter and her father are getting smaller and smaller as they live.

Li Xuemei subconsciously touched her belly, not knowing what this little one would be like.



The bamboo crossbow picture brought by Yan Laoer once again set off a wave of handmade craze.

Through Yan Laoer's half-knowledge explanation and countless reworks.

They really made the bamboo crossbow!

The biggest advantage of the bamboo crossbow is that it is light, can be made in any size, and is really easy to use. Bamboo arrows do not require pheasant feathers.

After Yan Laoer's second Buddhist experience, he told everyone that just put a leaf behind the bamboo arrow...

But in terms of strength, the bow made by the big guy before was still stronger.

Hard to choose.

Just bring them all.

The children also changed their minds.

All the crudely made wooden bows were thrown away.

Replaced with a small bamboo crossbow.

Children, both young and old, were satisfied.

They couldn't stay any longer during the break and ran around in groups.

Not to mention, they actually hunted two hedgehogs, a squirrel, and three unnamed birds.

Yan Laoer seriously suspected that the blind cat encountered a dead mouse and shot it down by random shooting.

In short, the result is that everyone has developed hunting skills and is very addicted to it.

Although the water is decreasing day by day, because some meat foam can be seen occasionally, everyone's overall appearance is still pretty good.

Especially when they saw the mountain that Yan Yu was thinking about.

The green dotted on it dazzles everyone’s eyes.

They won't say anything formal about seeing hope.

All you know is that this road to escape becomes brighter and brighter as you go.



Look at the mountain and run to death.

Yan Yu silently recited this saying.

I thought: That’s so right!

She had seen this mountain a long time ago, and after walking for so long, she finally reached it.

Based on the mileage they walked, they should have left the scope of Qishan Mansion by now.

At this time, we should have arrived in Leshan Prefecture.

The direction that the Three Treasures points to is the other side of the mountain.

They now face two choices:

First, take a detour from the foot of the mountain, which is far and safe.

The second is to cross from the mountainside. Not to mention, in this green mountain, they are likely to find what they urgently need now - water source.

Yan Huaiwen looked at the big guy who was eager to try.

I looked again at this mountain dotted with life.

"God bless!"

Yan Laoer responded.

Yan Huaiwen said: "Enter the mountain."

"okay!"

Sanbao led the way with steady steps.

The men in the back muttered:

"Do you think we can find water?"

"As long as there is, it can definitely be done."

"The animals in the mountains also need to drink water. Let's follow them to find it. That's right."
