In addition, cut off some lean meat and put it in Dawang's restaurant.
Let the food cook slowly in the pot, Mu Qing returned to the table and sat down, continuing to peel the bamboo sticks in his hand.
The feather arrow is very light and the burden to carry is not great.
If you are really hunting, you will need a lot of quantity at a time.
Mu Qing counted and cut off twenty round and thin bamboo strips.
Take out four or five and polish them with horsetail.
"This horsetail has polished the wooden needles, and just now it has polished the bow, and the texture on the surface has been smoothed out a lot."
"The bamboo sticks for feather arrows can't be polished very finely."
Hold the polished bamboo strip in the palm of your hand and feel it.
Obviously not as smooth as wooden needles.
Looking up at the sky, Mu Qing dismissed the idea of chopping some more.
After polishing all the cut bamboo, Mu Qing threw the useless horsetail into the fire.
Take the baking basket and spread out the peeled bamboo on the grill.
"The bamboo should also be baked to increase its hardness."
Turn the baking bow in one direction and start baking the other side.
"Okay, the rest of the work will be left to time."
"I finally have the time to sit down, eat something with peace of mind, and have a good rest."
"I got up too late in the morning, and I have been in a hurry today."
Muqing put the earthenware pot on the stove on the table, the cassava inside had been boiled very soft, and the soup was slightly yellow.
It looks like a particularly rich dashi.
Muqing took a sip of the soup, nodded in satisfaction, took out a piece of rabbit meat, and ate it slowly.
"I don't know why, but I feel flustered today."
"The right eyelid also twitched violently, probably because I didn't sleep well."
Raising his hands and rubbing his eyes, Mu Qing lowered his head and continued eating.
[Left eye jumps for money, right eye jumps]
[The rumors have been refuted, the eyelid twitching is just a muscle that is out of control. 】
[Yesterday morning, my left eyelid twitched violently, and I picked up five yuan when I went out. 】
[Eyelid twitching, palpitation, aren't these all symptoms of not having a good rest? 】
【Master Mu was too tired to go out yesterday, he rarely walks that far. 】
【Finish early and go to bed early. 】
[Remember to leave us a picture of the king, and we will cancel the live broadcast again! 】
Rubbing his eyelids, he finished eating and washed the pots and bowls.
He took out two long short-lived tree ropes from under the bed, grabbed them with both hands, and propped them forward with his feet.
"The bark of the short-lived tree is really flexible. It has been rubbed out for a long time, and the toughness is still very good."
"One is too thin. I took the two apart and twisted them together again to make bowstrings."
A complete rope is needed to make a bowstring, so Muqing untied the two twined short-lived tree ropes, loosened them, and restored them to the state without twisting the ropes.
Tie a knot at one end and retwist them into a thicker rope.
Pulling with both hands, pursing his mouth, he pulled vigorously to the sides.
"Yes, very durable."
The bow, string, and arrow are all ready.
Muqing picked up the bow and looked at it, feeling that it needs to be baked again.
"Make a quiver, it's a complete set."
After sorting out the pile of bamboo, Mu Qing chose a young bamboo.
Cut off a section along the bamboo joint, take a sharpened arrow and draw it, and cut it to a suitable length.
He tried the tip of the bamboo arrow with his fingers.
"After baking, the hardness of the bamboo arrows has increased by more than a little bit, and the front end has been sharpened, so the length of the quiver must be longer than the arrow."
"In this way, when walking on the mountain with the quiver on your back, you won't break the arrow or accidentally hurt yourself by the arrow."
Find a piece of wood from the firewood pile and sharpen one end.
Holding the bamboo tube in one hand and the wooden stick in the other, Muqing carefully handled the two sections of bamboo in the middle.
"This is a technical job. You need to pierce the middle bamboo joint, and be careful not to damage the bottom one."
"This bamboo is relatively tender. Later, I will add another layer of protection at the bottom to prevent the bottom bamboo joint from breaking by itself."
The opening of the bamboo tube is downward, and the cleaned bamboo nodes are poured out.
Cut out a few bamboo strips, and weave a slightly smaller piece of bamboo according to the size of the mouth of the bamboo tube.
Pinch it into the bamboo tube, and gently flatten it with a wooden stick at the bottom of the bamboo tube.
The remaining bamboo strips are programmed into a long five-strand braid, which is fixed on both sides of the bamboo tube.
Get up, put the bamboo tube across your body to see if it is the right length.
"Look, the fashionable wilderness satchel."
[My small satchel is the most fashionable and fashionable. 】
[Don't say it, it's really pretty. 】
[Master Mu is witty, this kind is much more durable than the hollow one. 】
