The bow is made of bamboo, which is small in size and lighter, very suitable for taking out.
The disadvantage is that it is not so durable and has a relatively short range.
Made of wood, it is more durable. According to the estimated range of the system, it is at least twice as far as the bow and arrow.
It just takes more work to make, and the whole is bigger.
After scratching the horse in his heart for a while, Mu Qing cut a long and straight piece of wood from the pile of wood.
Long-range attack is the greatest value of bow and arrow.
The difference in lightness and size will be over in one go.
After choosing the material for the bow, Muqing cut off some bamboo and used it to make arrows.
Bamboo is the best choice for making feather arrows.
Taking the wood and sitting down on the stone bench, Mu Qing cleaned the wood's surface first.
"I'm going to use this wood to make a wooden bow. First, I peel off all the bark, so that the overall color of the bow will be the same, so it will be comfortable to look at."
【What?Did Master Mu have the wrong focus? 】
[The first element of making a bow: it looks comfortable. 】
【Why doesn’t Master Mu use bamboo? A bamboo bow is better. 】
【Master Mu: Are you teaching me how to do things? 】
[The wooden bow is durable. 】
"Look, isn't this pretty?"
Mu Qing lifted up the log-colored wood, turned it twice in his hand, then lowered his head and began to cut one end of the wood.
"Now taper the ends of this piece of wood. This job looks simple, but the details are very technical."
"The closer the thickness of the two sides is, the more even the force on the bowstring will be when the bowstring is pulled."
"Indirectly affects the accuracy of the bow and arrow."
Kakaka.
Kakaka.
After two or three sharpenings, Muqing would pick it up to have a look, then turn over one side, and then sharpen the other side a few more times.
After going back and forth several times, Muqing touched it with his hand to feel the thickness of the wood.
"Most half of this side has been cut, and some leftovers will be left to wait until the other side is also cut and rested."
Turn the wood in your hand 180 degrees and start chipping the other side.
After the other side was cut, Mu Qing compared and determined the middle part of the bow first, and cut it into a small and long trapezoid.
Along the slope of the trapezoid, cut to both sides.
"It already looks great."
took a look.
Grab both sides of the bow with both hands, bend your knees against the middle of the bow, and retract the bow vigorously.
"No, I still have to cut it a little more."
Cut off a little on both sides, front and back, and test the toughness with your knees.
After repeating it several times, a smile gradually appeared on Muqing's expression.
"Hey, my bow is ready."
"Compared with bamboo, it is indeed a lot more troublesome to make it with wood."
"It took me about half an hour to finish the main part."
Gently scrape with a machete to make the surface of the bow smoother and more even.
He took out the horsetail that had been used to polish the wooden needles from under the bed, and sharpened the bow again.
Putting the polished bow on the table, Muqing took out a piece of wood with charcoal fire from the stove, and started a fire in the middle of the camp.
"This bow has been finished. It's quite big. It looks very professional."
"I'm going to bake it with fire now, dry this wood, and add fire attributes to it."
[I understand this, this step is called roasting and shaping (look at me! look at me! look at me!)]
[See if I can give you. 】
[Fire attribute +1, attack power +10. 】
[Only adding 10, it's too bad, at least upgrade to the purple-dressed bow. 】
【Master Mu, does this count as a knife in the opening game, and the equipment depends entirely on manufacturing? 】
[It has to be counted, Master Mu's current standard of living has far surpassed that of Master Shu. 】
[Shu Ye is far ahead of others. 】
Cushioned with stones and wood, the bow was baked beside the fire.
Muqing chopped off a few knots of bamboo, split them into long bamboo strips as thick as chopsticks, and slowly cut them with a machete, turning the bamboo from square to round.
"Is there no need to say more about this?"
"Bow and arrow, bow and arrow, the bow is ready, I'm going to cut the arrow now."
"It feels awkward to say that, well, I'm going to make feather arrows next."
"The kind without feathers."
Peeling out the main body of the bamboo arrow is a delicate job.
After peeling a few, Mu Qing put down his work.
I stretched my waist and went to the stream, and brought back two large soaked cassava, gently peeled off the blackened and yellowed layer, cut into thick slices and put them in the pot.
Take the rabbit that was roasted yesterday, cut off half of it, cut it into pieces and put it in the pot to cook together.
