Because it takes several days for pottery to dry in the shade, after making a few commonly used ladles and pots, Mufeng put them in the cave, and went on to do other things.

Although he was only looking for yellow clay yesterday, it made Mufeng realize that he didn't know enough about the dangers of primitive society.

He thought that food was the biggest threat to the survival of the tribe, but now it seems that it is much more than that.

The boa constrictor, which is so large that it far surpasses the records of later generations, the wild wolf that is more ferocious, and the wilderness farther away that even Mingguang has lingering fears...

All kinds of natural dangers can endanger the safety of the clansmen.

Even though the wild boar caught not long ago was so close to them, they never thought of hunting it.

And the wild boars have never harassed their tribe—it's not because they don't want to, but because they disdain them.

Mu Feng admitted this fact with great aggrievedness. Humans—the Jiang clan were so weak that even wild boars didn't bother to harass them.

Of course, this also has the most direct relationship with Jiang's poverty.

He thought that if it wasn't for his own arrow and bamboo spear yesterday, maybe Mingguang and the others would have confessed there.

"Strength, strength is the last word!" Mu Feng secretly clenched his fists, "You must be armed from the inside out to the teeth, and you have to walk sideways when you leave the tribe!"

"The inside is the tribe itself, and the outside is the tribe's defense."

"The weapons that the tribe can use now are sticks, bone knives and bamboo spears. They don't know how to make bows and arrows yet, so they have!"

Mu Feng said to Ming Guang, Li Hu and the others: "Uncle Li Hu showed me the bow and arrow yesterday. It's a single piece. Here, you can try it!"

He had to make sure what he said yesterday was accurate.

Ming Guang took the bow and arrow and was about to draw the string.

Mu Feng reminded: "Fully draw the bow!"

Mingguang was puzzled, but he still opened his hands and pulled them away easily.

"Sure enough!" Mu Feng nodded and turned to Han Shu, "You try it too!"

Han Shu was slightly puzzled, but he still took the bow, imitating Li Hu's appearance, and it was very easy.

Mu Feng understood it, nodded and said: "It seems that a single-piece bow is really not suitable for the two of you, at least you need a double-piece bow."

"Single piece bow, double piece bow?" Ming Guang was surprised.

"Yeah!" Mu Feng said with a smile, "I made the single-piece bow. It is easy to make and easy to use. But its range is not far, and its speed is not very fast. If the target is prepared, it is better to use it." There is a high possibility of hiding!"

"Ah?" Ming Guang was stunned, "But yesterday you shot that wolf king in the eye all at once?"

Wooden Wind shook his head with a smile: "That's because it thought you were a big threat and only stared at you."

"What's more, it has never seen a bow and arrow before, and it doesn't know how to hide!"

"You mean to say that this single-piece bow is not the most powerful?" Ming Guang said in disbelief.

"Of course!" Mu Feng nodded, "If you want the bow and arrow to be more powerful and not easy to be dodged, then at least you have to use a double-piece bow or a three-piece bow! A three-piece bow can shoot far, fast, and powerful. Both are bigger!"

After a pause, Mufeng frowned and said, "But it's very troublesome to make a pair of pieces, and it's not enough to simply tie them together."

Li Hu scratched his head in shame: "I really don't know how to make a double-piece bow..."

Mu Feng waved his hand: "I don't blame you, the binding position and bending position of the double-piece bow are all particular, which is different from the single-piece bow!"

"And even if the double-piece bow is made, strength alone is not enough, and special protective gear and methods for pulling the strings are required."

"This..." Several people looked at each other, completely unable to understand what Mu Feng was saying.

Bai Fang's eyes widened even more, and he asked with a puzzled face: "Brother Mufeng, why do I not understand what you are talking about?"

Mu Feng waved his hand: "It doesn't matter if you don't understand, I'll just teach you!"

White Fang stuck out his tongue: "Oh!"

Mu Feng thought about it, but he didn't know how to make a double-piece bow, so he had to ask the system for help, and spent 100 achievement points in exchange for the method of making a double-piece bow.

He couldn't help being dumbfounded to himself, Jing Zhulu only achieved 50 points in one set of methods, but the double-piece bow cost 100 points!

And he also glanced at the redemption page of the system, it seems that there is still a method of combining bows to redeem.

"I'll go! It seems that I think making bows and arrows is easy!"

He went through the specific method in his mind. The double-piece bow is very precise, and it is measured in specific centimeters.

Here's the problem, the ruler in his carpenter's toolbox was made to measure.

"What the hell!" Mu Feng muttered in his heart, intending to exchange a ruler directly, but he couldn't produce something out of thin air in front of several people.

But this can't help him, it's just a centimeter scale. When he was in elementary school, the teacher taught him how to make his own measuring tools in centimeters.

The specific standard is "one millimeter, the tip of a pencil. One centimeter, the width of a fingernail".

This means that one millimeter is equivalent to the width of the tip of a pencil, and one centimeter is equivalent to the width of the fingernail of an ordinary person.

To be sure, Mu Feng brought a piece of bamboo and asked everyone to stretch out their little fingers to trace the width of their fingernails.

Except Ming Guang's nails are obviously wider, Mu Feng, Li Hu and Han Shu's nails are about the same width even though they are strangely tall.

"It seems that there is no problem, it's just accurate in centimeters."

He nodded, made a bamboo ruler about 30 centimeters long according to the position of one centimeter, marked it with blackened thin bamboo thread, and carved the mark with a knife. Then he smiled and said to them: "Okay, now let's make a double bow!"
