The Days Of Surviving On The Desert Island With The Goddess

"Yes, I was looking for this kind of branch."

Qin Lie nodded.

"You want branches, we don't have a lot of branches around here, why are you still running deep into the woods to find them?"

Ye Yuqing asked in confusion.

"Sister Yuqing, I am not an ordinary branch, but a yew tree. There is no such tree near us."

Qin Lie smiled and said.

"Yew? Is there anything special about this tree?"

Ye Yuqing is well versed in business, but she doesn't know much about flowers and plants, and she has never heard of this yew tree.

"Yew is also known as yew. This tree is full of treasures. The paclitaxel extracted from yew is a recognized anti-cancer drug, known as biological gold, but I didn't get this yew to use it. Its medicinal value is mainly because I want to use it to make a bow and arrow."

Qin Lie did not hide any more, and directly stated his purpose.

"Do bows and arrows?"

Hearing this, Ye Yuqing frowned again.

"Yes. Yew wood is tough and has a certain elasticity. It is the most suitable material for making bows and arrows. If I can use it to make a bow and arrow, it will be twice the result with half the effort whether I am hunting or defending against the enemy."

Qin Lie explained again.

In fact, he had thought about making bows and arrows a long time ago, but he never stopped in his imagination, and yesterday's attack by a giant python made him feel a sense of crisis again, so he went to the woods early in the morning I found these yew trees and came back, ready to put the idea into practice.

"Is there anything I can help you with?"

Ye Yuqing asked.

"Just help me make breakfast, I'll do the rest myself."

Ye Yuqing didn't know how to make bows and arrows at all, and asking her to help might be a disservice. Qin Lie naturally didn't need her help.

"Okay, I'm going to prepare breakfast now. Call me if you have something to do."

After saying this, Ye Yuqing left.

Qin Lie put the yew wood on the ground, intercepted the length he needed, marked the center point, and then started to make the bow tire.

In a bow, the bow tire is the most important, and the quality of a pair of bow tires directly determines the power of the bow and arrow.

So Qin Lie didn't have any rush, he first peeled off the bark of the yew, and then took a knife to cut off all the excess wood.

After grinding the bow tires very smooth, Qin Lie put the wood next to the campfire and roasted it.

This step is mainly to bend the wood into a bow shape.

Because dry wood is difficult to bend, but it is much easier to bend after a little fire, and it can also prevent the wood from breaking due to excessive force. After bending the yew wood into the desired arc, Qin Lie Another piece of bamboo was cut out, and it was glued to the inside of the bow tire with resin as a hope.

This step is also to increase the strength of the bow and arrow.

In fact, the best handle for making bows and arrows is to use high-quality horns, but Qin Lie does not have those things at all, so he can only use bamboo chips instead.

After gluing the handle, Qin Lie took out the resin he collected in the woods, melted it completely on the fire, and then completely smeared the bow tire with a branch.

The main purpose of dipping resin is to coat the bow tire with a protective film, which plays the role of moisture-proof and anti-corrosion.

After finishing this step, Qin Lie cut two half-moon-shaped notches on both sides of the bow tire, and then tied the rope braided with cloth strips yesterday.

After a short rest, Qin Lie quickly made a few bamboo arrows out of bamboo, and glued a feather with resin at the back. The function of the feather is mainly to balance the arrow, otherwise the arrow will easily deviate from the target.

At this point, a set of bows and arrows is finally done!

"Qin Lie, the meal is ready, shall we eat first?"

Ye Yuqing walked over to talk like a virtuous wife.

"You eat first, I'll try the power of this bow and arrow."

After Qin Lie replied, he took the bow and arrow and started to search for the target.

In the end Qin Lie chose an empty coconut shell.

He put the coconut shell on the ground about ten meters away from him, and then pulled the bow and shot arrows in one go.

Hearing a swoosh, the arrow hit the coconut shell accurately.

"Wow, Brother Qin, you shot so accurately!"

Seeing Qin Lie hit the coconut shell with an arrow, Su Xiaoxiao immediately cast her admiring eyes.

"Hey, it's just a little trick of carving insects."

Qin Lie replied very modestly, and then quickly ran to the coconut shell to check it. He found that his bamboo arrow had already shot into the coconut shell by nearly two centimeters!

"The power of this bow and arrow is not bad. If I encounter something like a pheasant and a hare in the future, I can shoot it directly with one arrow."

Qin Lie said with a smile that he was very satisfied with the power of this bow and arrow.

"Brother Qin, can you let me shoot an arrow too?"

Su Xiaoxiao asked eagerly.

"sure."

Qin Lie replied with a smile, handed the bow and arrow to Su Xiaoxiao, and placed the coconut shell just three meters away from Su Xiaoxiao.

"Wow, this bow and arrow is so hard to draw."

Su Xiaoxiao just saw that Qin Lie pulled a full bow at will, but when she actually operated it, she realized that the bow and arrow were very heavy. Aiming at her, she couldn't hold it anymore, and quickly let go of the bamboo arrow.

Whoosh!

The bamboo arrow did not shoot at the coconut shell, but instead shot towards Qin Lie next to him, wiping Qin Lie's cheek and flying over.

"Damn it, you want to murder your husband!"

Qin Lie glared at Su Xiaoxiao and cursed.

If the arrow just deviates slightly to the left by two centimeters, it will definitely shoot directly into Qin Lie's right eye.

"I'm sorry Brother Qin, I didn't mean it."

Su Xiaoxiao explained embarrassedly.

She didn't expect her arrow to deviate so far.

"Forget it, bows and arrows are not suitable for you. You should stop touching them. I don't want to be sent to the west with an arrow from you one day."

Qin Lie knew that Su Xiaoxiao didn't do it on purpose, so he didn't scold her again, but for safety's sake, he took back the bow and arrow.

After all, Su Xiaoxiao's shooting accuracy is too bad, he doesn't want to die in the hands of his teammates.

"Qin Lie, let me try it too?"

At this moment, Lin Qiuzhu also came over, and it was not difficult to see from the little stars in her eyes that she was also interested in archery.

"You can try if you want, but I don't want to die in your hands when I get farther away."

Qin Lie was already frightened by Su Xiaoxiao's arrow just now, and immediately hid away after handing the bow and arrow to Lin Qiuzhu.

Lin Qiuzhu's strength is slightly stronger than Su Xiaoxiao's, but she also gritted her teeth before pulling the bow away.

After aiming at the coconut shell, Lin Qiuzhu released the bow and arrow in his hand.

Without Qin Lie's accident, Lin Qiuzhu's arrow also went to his grandmother's house.
