The long bow in the wooden box is very different from ordinary bows and arrows. First of all, it has a weird shape. Ordinary bows and arrows have a large arc, but the bow and arrow in the box has no arc, it is almost straight, and there are no curved tips at both ends.
Son, if it weren't for the bowstring connected to it, at first glance, I would have thought it was a three-foot-long stick.
Another difference is the color. Ordinary bows and arrows only have one color, but this bow and arrow are colorful. The bowstring is white, the bow tip with the bowstring tied at both ends is red, the bow body that holds the power is green, and the middle is used for gripping.
The handle of the bow is yellow, and the string pad used to reduce the vibration of the bow string is black. There are five colors in one bow.
Seeing that the long bow was so weird, he put down the Tiancanyi in his hand and took out the long bow from the wooden box to look at it. Common bows and arrows have flat bows, with a width of more than an inch, but the long bow in front of him has a round bow.
It is shaped like a bow and is only about half an inch wide. The entire long bow looks like a slender stick.
As a Taoist priest who is proficient in yin and yang and the five elements, when I first saw this long bow, I suspected that this long bow was probably composed of the five materials of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, because white, green, black, red, and yellow correspond to the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth.
After carefully looking at the long bow, I saw no words engraved on it, so I picked up a piece of white jade paperweight on the table and knocked it to identify the sound, trying to identify the material through the sound.
At this moment, Song Cai opened a thick document, pointed at one of the pages and said, "Master, look at it."
Hearing Song Cai's words, he turned his attention to the document. This document is a list of Ni Bo's collection. The current page of the document is a description of this weird bow and arrow, and the description of this weird bow and arrow is very brief.
There are only a few numbers, 'The ancient weapon, the arrowless divine bow.'
Seeing his doubts rising, Song Cai shook his head and said, "I have never seen this thing before. My old boss got it from somewhere else. We know nothing about its origins. I'm afraid even my old boss himself doesn't know. I just think of my boss."
Among the weapons taken from the Taiping Inn earlier, there was no remote attack crossbow, so after discovering this bow and arrow, I wanted to leave it to my employer."
After nodding, I tried to draw the string and draw the bow, but found that the bow was extremely tough and it was impossible to draw the bow without stimulating the spiritual energy.
I wanted to activate my spiritual energy and try to shoot a bow, but when I saw the word "ancient weapon" in the book, I didn't dare to try it rashly. Since this thing is called an ancient weapon, it naturally has its unruly and cruel features.
But the four words "Arrowless Divine Bow" made him extremely curious. Although people in the world are accustomed to calling long bows "bows and arrows", in fact, bows and arrows are two completely different things. A bow is a bow and an arrow is an arrow. What does the "Arrowless Divine Bow" mean? "Bow" and "Arrowless Divine Bow".
Arrows are originally two different things. Bows should not have arrows in the first place. The four characters of "Arrowless Divine Bow" do not make sense in literature and science.
Just when he was hesitating, Song Cai turned the document to the page where Tian Can Yi was recorded. Song Cai had previously mentioned the origin of Tian Can Yi, and what was recorded in the document was roughly similar to what Song Cai said.
"My boss, I'm afraid we won't come back again," Song Caiduo said sadly, "Look at the catalog again. If there is anything you need here, you can stay."
"No need," he shook his head, "I'll take this bow and arrow with me, and I'll slowly figure it out when I get back. I'll take one of these two pieces of silkworm clothing, and you can take the other one to the Western Regions."
Song Cai was not surprised by this arrangement. Although he did not say it explicitly, he knew that he wanted him to bring another piece of silkworm clothing to Ni Chenyi.
"My boss, you'd better take a look at it again," Song Cai pushed the notebook in front of him, "Since my old boss didn't take them away before leaving, he naturally thought that you might use these things in the future."
"No need," waved his hand and said, "They left in an extremely hurry that day and didn't have time to pack them carefully. The things here are all the beloved things that Mr. Ni has collected for many years. You can take whatever you can."
Seeing that his mind had been made up, Song Cai did not go back again.
He advised, "Taiping Inn also has a lot of inventory. We are sorting out the detailed catalog and will send it to the palace for you to review in the next few days. If you want to mark anything useful, we will send someone to the palace."
"That's fine," nodded, "you can continue your work, I'll go back first."
Song Cai nodded in response, then closed the two wooden boxes, one large and one small, and handed them over.
He took the wooden box and turned around to go ahead, followed by Song Cai to see it off.
Leave Ni Mansion and ride back to Wang Mansion.
After returning to the palace, he went straight to Yu Yi's residence. At Yu Yi's instruction, he closed the door, opened the wooden box and took out the weird long bow.
Rather than taking out a long bow, it is more like taking out a stick. Except for the bow string that is close to the bow body, there is nothing about the whole object that looks like a bow and arrow.
"Sir, what is this?" Yu Yi looked at it in confusion.
"Bows and arrows," he said, "are also old things. They are relics from ancient times. There are only eight words in the record about this bow and arrow. It is an ancient weapon, the arrowless divine bow."
Hearing the words, Yu Yi was also confused, "What is the divine bow without arrows?"
"I don't know either." I hadn't examined it carefully before, but this time I picked up the copper spoon on the table and tapped it one by one. "The sound of the green bow arm is slightly dull. It must be wooden, and the white bow string touches it.
There is an echo of copper and iron, so it should be something metal. Can you tell what the red bow tips at both ends are made of?"
Yu Yi looked at it carefully and then said, "The bow tip is put on. Looking at the inner edge, it seems that the bow tip was originally hollow."
"Yes," nodded, "this object should be the skeleton or claws of some kind of bird."
After Yu nodded, he continued to inspect, "The black string pad should be the skeleton of some kind of aquatic animal. If you look carefully, there are no lines on it, which rules out the possibility of scales. The yellow bow handle is not astringent or slippery, and the appearance is
It seems to be some kind of rare jade.”
After knocking and inspecting each one, he handed the longbow to Yu Yi and said, "Take a closer look."
Yu Yi stretched out his hand to take the long bow, stroked it and inspected it, "Sir, have you noticed that the bow tips at both ends are very warm?"
Just as he was about to drink from the cup, he reached out and held the tip of the bow after hearing Yu's words, "You're right, it's true."
Yu Yi continued to look at it carefully, and after a while he pointed at the bow again and said, "Sir, look here."
Looking closer, he could smell the fresh scent of Yu Yi because they were so close. Since Yu Yi was a nun, he had never seen Yu Yi as a woman before. Only now did he remember that she was also a young woman.
He leaned back slightly and distanced himself from Yu Yi, "I have never seen this kind of wood grain. This kind of tree should be extinct."
"Sir, these are not wood grains, but bone grains." Yu Yi corrected.
"Bone patterns?" He frowned and looked again. After a closer look, he found that the dense textures of different lengths on the green bow were not wood grains, but the bones of some kind of animal. As time goes by, the bones of animals will indeed appear similar.
Small cracks in the wood grain.
Seeing that the green bow body, black string pad and red bow tip were all animal bones, I suspected that the white bow string and yellow bow handle were also animal bones. After careful inspection, I found that the yellow bow handle was indeed topaz, and the white bow handle was indeed topaz.
The bowstring is indeed not metal, but it is definitely not sinew or bone.
After thinking for a short time, he suddenly remembered something and hurriedly stretched out his hand to touch the black string pad, "It's cold! I know what it is."
"Four mythical beasts?" Yu Yi said with a trill.
"Yes, the bow body is made of green dragon bone, the string pad is made of black tortoise shell, the tip of the bow is made of red bird claws, and the bow handle is made of black yellow jade." He said.
