After hearing what Luo Xiaoshan said, it made perfect sense, so I wholeheartedly agreed. Xiao Min, who saw me taking out the steel bracelet and cooking something, was in a daze for a moment and looked over in a daze.
In fact, I didn't know how to tell her, so I could only smile kindly at her. She might be a little sad and turned her head slightly away from me. I sighed helplessly in my heart. After all, this thing was left by Luo Wei!
It was still raining outside, and Huang Jianfen was on duty at the stone pile at the entrance of the cave. I asked her to step on the bamboo tubes to fix them for me, and then I slowly sawed four large bamboo tubes at the lower end of the bamboo in sequence.
Looking at the four big bamboo tubes, I felt a little relieved that my initial hard work was worth it. After all, now we not only have a container to hold things, but we can also use it to boil water and cook food. Anyway, it has so many uses!
"You can split the bamboo into two finger widths first, and then sharpen them separately to make arrows. When you have time, you can inlay those guaiac wood into the arrow shafts to make arrowheads. This will be more lethal!" He was busy making gestures while keeping busy.
"Also, the arrow body must be rounded to avoid hurting your hands when you use it and shoot it out!" Luo Xiaoshan said carefully, hoping everyone would understand, but she said it towards me. !
"Okay, I understand!" In fact, I also knew a little, but Luo Xiaoshan said it in great detail. Seeing her specifically facing me, I naturally understood that this was her character, so I didn't pay much attention to it!
I took over immediately, and Xiao Min and Liu Huan, who was helping, came to help soon. While we were watching Luo Xiaoshan making the bow, our men were also busy. I was responsible for cutting the arrows, and Xiao Min and Liu Huan were responsible for rounding the arrow bodies!
Fortunately, I have some daggers. Without these tools, many things would not be possible. After the division of labor, everyone worked together for a while and were busy working on a pile of bamboo!
During this period, I also looked at Yuan Jianning and found that Luo Xiaoshan rarely paid any attention to him. I knew it wasn't that she didn't care, but that Yuan Jianning didn't seem to have any reaction. There was something weird about this, and I couldn't help but frown.
Because I saw him lying there all the time, with the dry firewood under him. Of course, no one would sleep like this in the outside world, but he seemed to have no reaction.
I don’t know if he woke up while I was resting, or what kind of reaction he had. But everyone was busy at this time, so it was hard for me to ask about it directly. After all, Luo Xiaoshan didn't react at all!
But at this time, he looked at Luo Xiaoshan, who was very focused on the work in hand, and watched her choose the upper half of the slightly thin Dulong bamboo. After breaking the bamboo tube, cut it into three wide bamboo pieces, and then smoothed both ends of the bamboo pieces.
She looks confident, which makes people look forward to it. Watch her then burn the sharp thorns red in the fire, and finally carefully burn the sharp steel thorns until they are almost transparent, burning the eyes on both ends of the bamboo slices.
The spikes were burning red, so the temperature was naturally very high. She kept turning slowly, and then the spikes stuck at both ends of the slightly flat bamboo piece, emitting thick green smoke, but soon black holes were made.
Looking at the position and shape of the black holes at both ends, it is obviously used to fix the bowstring! Because she had marked everything, the results looked extremely standard and uniform!
Then she actually ironed another semicircle in the middle of the bamboo piece on one side, which was only half the size of a five-cent coin. Then she handed the piece of bamboo that had been ironed and used to make a bow in front of me.
He said in a light voice: "When rounding the arrow shaft, just use this fixing hole. Just make it a little smaller than it. If it is too thin, it will not be accurate. If it is too big, it will not be able to shoot. It will be a waste of time!"
"Okay!" I knew she didn't want to talk too much to Xiao Min and Liu Huan, so I quickly picked it up and compared it with them! It not only saves Luo Xiaoshan the embarrassment, but also avoids the confusion of Xiao Min and Liu Huan!
Xiao Min didn't say anything, and Liu Huan didn't seem to realize there was anything wrong with this. According to what I understood, I took the half hole in the middle of the bamboo piece and rounded the arrow body prepared here. Everything has a clear standard!
Then Luo Xiaoshan prepared six pieces of bamboo, which looked slightly wider than the usual bow. After piercing both ends and a half hole in the middle, I continued to cut six more bamboo pieces.
Looking at the length of these six bamboo slices, it is exactly the length inside the holes of the original bamboo slices after the holes were removed from the first bamboo slices. The width just avoids the half-hole position in the middle of the bamboo piece!
I vaguely understood that this was padded inside the open-hole bamboo sheets for elastic support. Sure enough, she then merged the two pieces together and tied them tightly in several sections with silk knots.
It looks like this not only has stronger toughness, but also greatly strengthens the strength of the bow! Maybe this is the most primitive bow, but through Luo Xiaoshan's modern thinking, the effect is simpler and clearer!
Because we originally had two bows, and Yuan Jianning and Luo Xiaoshan had two. The six pieces of bamboo she prepared now are obviously for the remaining people!
I didn't expect that she would include Ni Yuewen among us. Although she rarely spoke, she obviously followed my wishes and made arrangements for everyone directly. I feel somewhat comforted, this is a woman with a clever mind!
But I didn't say anything else. She was the expert at this moment, and we were all just helpers. She has absolute authority over the production of weapons. So if you need anything, I'll help you get it done right away!
Lanfang broke a lot of bamboo strips. After Luo Xiaoshan tied up the two layers of bamboo strips, she polished the broken bamboo strips again with a knife, making each small bamboo strips more rounded, and then polished them again. Teach these women to weave rope from thin strips!
Just to be on the safe side, she also destroyed her upper body coat, added fabric to the thin strips, and knitted them together. Her move surprised these women, but they didn't think much about it.
Finally, looking at the braiding, five thin strands of bamboo rope were intertwined and intertwined together again to form a perfect round bamboo rope. The size and toughness are truly amazing. She crossed the two ends of the bamboo piece and tried it first.
Seeing the smile on her face, everyone felt much more comfortable!
Because the food that was prepared at the beginning was already a little cold at this time, although Xiao Min didn't show anything, she told everyone to eat something first.
I looked at the rain still falling outside and the sky seemed still gloomy, and then I realized that it was almost evening! So he also called Luo Xiaoshan to stop eating for a while. She didn't refuse, she nodded slightly and agreed!
Everyone didn't talk much, but everyone seemed a little relaxed when they sat at the entrance of the cave. Since the food is placed at the entrance of the cave and there is a watch post, there is no need to go inside to eat!
