The bow is a widely used hunting tool. Bifang made it once before the geese migrated.
At the same time, I also have the blue archery proficiency skill, so I would be really sorry if I didn't make one.
The style of bows and arrows is still the "father and son bow".
There is a smaller bow tied to the back of a larger bow. Although it is not as strong and durable as the better wood that is cut from a whole piece, the advantage is that it does not require high tree materials and is easy to make.
"Wood that can be used to make good bows is rare in the rainforest, because the trees here generally grow very quickly. Those who have studied biology should know that the longer the growth cycle, the higher the quality of the things that grow, and vice versa.
Established.”
The high school geography teacher bangs on the blackboard in class every day and shouts, why the Northeast Wuchang rice is more delicious because it has a long growth cycle and fertile soil...
Bi Fang still remembers this.
The wood in the north is much better than that in the south, and the same reason applies.
Hundreds of years ago, the wood used to build palaces was basically cut down from the Daxingan Mountains in the north, and finally flowed down the river.
The father-son bow overcomes the problem of lack of good wood through its unique structure and is very suitable for this environment.
After being busy for several hours, Bi Fang also felt sleepy around nine o'clock. He had to get up early every day and had to do a lot of physical activities. It was very easy to feel sleepy at night.
There is a saying that goes well. Nowadays, many people just eat too much and have no time to think about what they have and don’t have. They will be fine after just two meals.
Bi Fang yawned, put the 80% completed bow and arrow on the ground, and said confusedly: "I'm so sleepy, I'm going to sleep, I'm going to do it today."
"Goodbye brothers."
[Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu without our sisters again, my heart is dead, I've lost my fans, I've lost my fans]
[You are obviously a fucking man...]
[Am I a man if the information says he is a man? You are discriminating! I will sue you]
【You guys are so interesting】
【So many fools】
...
It’s the eleventh day of survival in the Banna rainforest, and more than half of the twenty-one-day survival mission has passed.
In the early morning, the water monitor lizard crawled out of the cave early. As a cold-blooded animal, it needs to bask in the sun every day to increase its body temperature.
The terrain around the shelter is relatively open. Perhaps this is why it is so persistent and drags its family here?
Bi Fang ignored the water monitor lizard basking in the sun beside him, got up, washed up, took care of his personal hygiene, and started the live broadcast.
"Yesterday, my bow and arrow were almost finished. I perfected it again this morning. Now it can be finalized and tested."
Bi Fang raised the long bow in his hand, which was very similar to the one made by Yanniao. Two branches formed the bow body, and some hemp ropes twisted with bark fibers served as the bow strings.
This is not the final bow string, just to test the effectiveness of the bow by pulling on the string.
Bi Fang took out a "test stick" less than one meter and about seventy centimeters, cut a notch on the top, and then cut another one every twelve centimeters or so.
Then place the bow grip on the top of the stick and pull the rope to the first notch.
"Each notch represents the degree of bend of the bow. Now I want to check the bend of the bow. If everything looks OK, then continue to pull the rope to the next notch."
"But once you find that some parts are bent too hard, you need to trim them at both ends so that they can bend evenly like other places. In the same way, there is a problem with too little bending."
"When making a bow, don't skip this process. These details will affect the entire balance of the bow, ensuring that the arrow you shoot will not float, but fly straight forward, and finally fall to the ground under the action of gravity."
Bi Fang used this method to gradually check the bending condition of the bow until the rope could reach the last notch on the stick.
Next, shorten the length of the rope and test the second small bow.
After testing both the large and small bows, they were put together and tested again. After some adjustments, they were all successful. There was no problem with Bifang's production.
The bows and arrows were all prepared last night, and Bifang dried them and took them out.
“If you are a novice, don’t expect immediate success in hunting with a bow. The first thing you need to do is practice a lot, become familiar with the bow and arrow in your hand, and learn how to load, draw, aim and shoot at different distances.
Only when you have confidence can you start actual combat."
Bi Fang, who has system skills, is naturally rich in experience. He has always felt that solidifying skills is a big obstacle.
Any skill, as long as it appears on the panel, will not become unfamiliar or clumsy due to the passage of time or long-term lack of practice.
I was a piano master ten years ago, but after ten years of not practicing, I am still the same.
Bi Fang aimed at a big tree, and after shooting several times, he picked up the arrow and headed into the jungle, following the animal trails in the forest.
"I don't think I've ever talked about archery skills, have I?"
[Never said that, face covering]
[Yes, I saw the whizzing arrows of the poachers]
"Have you heard of the Archer Paradox?"
[Oh, I know this, that is, the second arrow shot can never catch up with the first arrow!]
"???"
【Ah, is that so?】
【Something doesn't feel right...】
[Is that Zeno’s paradox, the turtle one...]
"I've never heard of the second arrow not being able to catch up with the first arrow..." Bi Fang twitched his lips, "I think what you're talking about is the philosophical paradox that Achilles can't outrun the tortoise.
It has nothing to do with what I said."
"The Archer's Paradox means that when shooting an arrow, as long as your arrow is pointed at the target when it is nocked, it will definitely miss."
What the hell?
Did I hear wrongly?
At this moment, millions of viewers standing in front of the screen want to pick out their ears and wonder if they heard wrong just now.
If you aim at the target, the film will definitely be shot. Are you kidding me?
How many people have ever experienced professional archery practice?
Not even 1%, so the live broadcast room completely exploded at this moment, and I felt that Bifang was talking nonsense.
Even...people who have been exposed to professional archery think it's nonsense.
[How is it possible? How does the archer aim at the target? 】
【This unscientific】
【Have you really started to engage in metaphysics? 】
[As soon as I came in, I saw the anchor bragging. Can this be recommended on the cover? Did you pay for it? It’s all shady]
【???】
[Nonsense, I went to the archery hall in the club yesterday to experience it. I have never heard of such a thing. Lao Fang, you don’t know about your own club? 】
Bi Fang spread his hands and said: "I'm really not talking nonsense. I can be responsible for what I say. If you don't believe me, check it out. But there is indeed no archer's paradox in modern archery, but you have never played traditional archery."
He didn't expect the audience's reaction to be so big, but he could understand it.
People who have never played bow and arrow think it is unreliable, and people who have played bow and arrow... emmm, they will also find it unreliable.
Because modern archery has overcome this problem, you will never encounter this situation.
"Has anyone checked?"
The audience opened the webpage with hesitation and entered the Archer Paradox word by word. After a while.
[Damn, there really is...]
【There is something wrong with this world】
[It must be Fang Shen who has activated his mighty power again and changed the physical rules of this world!]
Bi Fang didn't care. Netizens often made fun of him, but he also cooperated and said: "Who would come to the live broadcast if he has such ability?"
"Normal people will subconsciously think that the arrow should be aimed at the target when shooting, but in fact, any traditional archer's arrow on the string will be biased to one side. Right-handers will bias to the left, and left-handers will bias the arrows to one side. In this way,
Hit the target accurately.”
Most people in the live broadcast room stopped talking and listened with their ears straightened up. Only a few people did not inquire and just made judgments based on their own feelings.
"You may think that the bow and arrow shoot straight forward, but in fact, in the high-speed camera, the bow and arrow swim out like a fish."
Bi Fang drew out a long arrow, with a certain curvature at the bend, indicating the good elasticity of the bow and arrow.
"Because we are limited by our bow-drawing techniques and bow and arrow structure, whether it is a Mediterranean-style bowing method or a Mongolian-style bowing method, there will be a certain amount of friction, causing the string to bounce back to the left or right."
Bi Fang stretched his bow and nocked an arrow, demonstrating what the Mongolian and Mediterranean styles are.
Mediterranean people use three fingers of their right hand to pull the string, and the arrow is placed on the left side of the bow handle. Left-handers use three fingers of their left hand to pull the string, and the arrow is placed on the right side.
The Mongolian bowing method is equivalent to the Mediterranean left-handed bowing method, which is a mirror image of the above set of actions.
However, when opening a Mongolian bow, right-handed archers should place their arrows on the right side of the bow and use their right thumb to pull the string.
However, due to the relationship between using one finger to draw the bow, the thumb is easily scratched, so the so-called ring finger appears. However, this thing has been around since the pre-Qin Dynasty, and it was called 阘 at that time.
"I have watched a lot of costume TV dramas, but I have never seen anyone draw a bow correctly. There is even a pinch-arrow style, where you hold the arrow feathers and shoot. This should be a move of ancient humans and some primitive tribes. The accuracy is very poor, so it is more suitable.
Yu shot the balloon over his boyfriend's head at the playground."
The audience almost laughed out loud.
[How does an actor compare with Fang Shen?]
【Boyfriend is in danger!】
【Insert eye】
【Are you also Xiahou Dun? 】
"However, although the arrow will move its head and head, there are two points on the arrow that will not sway left and right, and that is the node. The line connecting the node will point to the final position of the arrow. In other words, only when the node of the arrow is aligned with the target
Only when you hit the target can you hit the target.”
"The position of the arrow's nodes depends on the mass distribution and deflection of the arrow, that is, the elasticity, as well as the bow tension and draw length."
"With the same bow, if you shoot another arrow, the knots will change. So even a veteran can't shoot accurately when he picks up an arrow."
【I have lost my studies】
[Then why is it never mentioned in the archery hall of Laofang Club?]
[Yes, I can hit the target even if I hit it directly]
【Holy shit, have you all been there?】
[Nonsense, you are the only one who has never been there]
【Wait for me, buy a ticket now!】
"Because we know the reason, modern bows and arrows will definitely be improved. Anyone who has played a compound bow should know that the bow handle of a compound bow protrudes to one side. With this protrusion, it is possible to shoot straight at the target without considering the paradox."
"The falling arrow rest also has a protective effect. It falls at the moment the arrow is launched, reducing the impact of external forces. Now the arrow no longer swings left and right, but up and down."
"In short, if you make a bow and arrow with your bare hands in the wild, you must tilt it to one side when shooting, otherwise you will never hit the target."
Damn it, I just realized that the second chapter has not been released.
Sorry, sorry, I forgot the time. I almost missed my perfect attendance.
