I am the chief of a primitive tribe

In terms of difficulty, anyone who has seen a single-piece bow can make one, which is equivalent to a child breaking a willow branch and tying a hemp rope to shoot a branch arrow.

But the power and range are only average.

The double-piece bow and above combined bows are different. They have special technical requirements and higher precision.

Mu Feng originally thought that the double-piece bow was just to stack two pieces of bamboo together, bend them, and tie them together, but in actual operation, he found that it was not the case.

The arc produced by the bending position of two pieces of bamboo of the same thickness cannot make the position of the arrow end fit seamlessly.

Forcibly tying them together with animal tendons will only make the bowstring unstable, and the stability of the arrow shot out cannot be guaranteed at all.

This requires a bamboo piece to gradually become thinner from the center, presenting an extremely narrow and long trapezoidal bamboo piece.

This is simple to say, but it is very difficult to operate.

Because this involves the problem of the amplitude of the bamboo piece becoming thinner, it requires precise marking, and then using a carpenter's plane to thin it out bit by bit.

Even if Mu Feng had a systematic exchange method, teaching him step by step like a brand in his mind, he still needed to compare it with another piece every time he planed.

This stunned everyone.

"Brother Mu Feng!" Bai Ya blinked and frowned, "What are you doing? Why are you always thinning it?"

Mu Feng put two bamboo pieces together and bent them, saying, "Are there gaps between the two bamboo pieces from the middle to the two ends? But after the bamboo pieces are thinned and bent, the gaps in the middle will be tightly attached together!"

As he said this, he pressed the two bamboo pieces with both hands, and with a force, the bamboo pieces really fit together perfectly.

He nodded and started to make a fire and roast the bamboo pieces again, and this time he was even more familiar with it.

"Then you didn't teach this to that sister last time, what should we do?" Baiya frowned slightly, looking worried, "There are so many people in their tribe, if they rob us..."

Mufeng smiled and said, "I taught her to make bows and arrows because she gave me so many furs and salt, and the tribe is short of these things. If she comes again, it won't be so easy!"

"Ah?" Baiya said worriedly, "What if she gets angry?"

"Angry?" Mufeng shook his head and smiled, "No, if she robs us, she can arrest you all the first time, Then take it away. "" But it is not cost -effective for them, caught you and can't kill. If you kill them, let them take food to support us in vain. , I put my lips, and the dimples floated on my face. "It seems like you are big!" "White tooth!" Li Hu scolded, but the corner of his mouth did not show his smile. The neck is like a proud swan: "I was!" "OK, OK!" Mufeng gave a thumbs up and praised, "Just wait for you to become great in the future!" Then, Mufeng fell and fixed with stones again with stones. Then he looked at Mingguang and Hanshu: "A single-piece bow is easy for you, but it can't bring out your strength. So you two who are strong need a double or triple-piece bow."

"In addition to the bow's greater strength requirements, you also need special protective gear!"

"Protective gear?" The two looked at each other, puzzled.

"When you pull the bowstring, your fingers are pinching the bowstring. Over time or too many times, it will cut your fingers and affect your accuracy, so you need finger protection."

Mufeng picked up the bow and arrow and gestured: "See, these are the fingers when you pull the string! Come on, Mingguang, pull it and then release it!"

Mingguang did it.

Mufeng smiled and asked: "Do you feel a slight tremor in your fingers?"

Mingguang felt it carefully, and then realized: "A single-piece bow requires less strength, but a double-piece bow will hurt your fingers, right?"

"Yes! Bows like double-piece bows and triple-piece bows require greater strength, and the elasticity of the bowstring will also be greater, just like this..." Mufeng demonstrated.

"See? These three fingers are easily injured when pulling the bowstring. When shooting, the forearm and shoulder holding the bow are easily injured by the bowstring!"

"Ah, so dangerous?" White Fang exclaimed.

Mu Feng nodded. Weapons that are as sharp as swords can cause great self-injury if used improperly..

But Mingguang's eyes lit up, and he asked excitedly: "Chief, the bowstrings of the two bows are so strong, so will the arrows shot out be more powerful?"

Mufeng nodded, and Mingguang realized the key point: "You will know when it is done!"

Mingguang became excited: "If everyone in our Jiang family has such a bow and arrow..."

Mufeng smiled and said: "Then our Jiang family will have an archery army! Even a large tribe cannot threaten us!"

"This!" Several people became excited in an instant, and their faces flushed.

Mingguang asked again: "But how to make protective gear?"

"This is easy!" Mufeng smiled, "Now there is enough fur in the tribe, and we can make a shoulder guard and arm guard for the left shoulder."

"And the python skin cut off yesterday, it can be cleaned and made into a finger guard!"

At the same time, he sighed in his heart: "Python skin finger guard, real leather protective gear, this is rare in the previous life!"
