In terms of difficulty, anyone who has ever seen a single-piece bow can do it, which is equivalent to a child breaking a willow branch and shooting a branch arrow with a hemp rope.

But the power and range can only be considered average.

However, the double-piece bow and above combined bow are different, with special technical requirements and higher accuracy.

Mu Feng originally thought that the double-piece bow could be done by stacking two pieces of bamboo together, roasting them, bending them and tying them together, but in practice it was found that this was not the case.

The curvature produced by two pieces of bamboo of the same thickness at the curved position cannot allow the position of the arrow tip to fit seamlessly.

Forcibly binding them together with animal tendons will only make the bowstring unstable, and the stability of the shot arrows cannot be guaranteed at all.

This requires a piece of bamboo to gradually become thinner from the central position, presenting an extremely narrow and long trapezoidal bamboo piece.

This is easy to say, but difficult to do.

Because it involves the gradual thinning of the bamboo slices, it requires precise scribing and thinning with a carpenter's planer bit by bit.

Even if Mufeng has a systematic exchange method, teaching him step by step in his mind like a brand, he still needs to compare it with another piece every time he planes.

This time, everyone was stunned.

"Brother Mufeng!" Bai Fang blinked and frowned, "What are you doing, why are you always thinning?"

Mufeng put the two bamboo pieces together and bent them, and said: "These two bamboo pieces have gaps from the middle to both ends, but after the bamboo pieces are thinned and bent, the gap in the middle will be tight. It's stuck together!"

As he spoke, he held down the two pieces of bamboo with both hands, and pressed hard on one, and sure enough, the bamboo pieces fit together perfectly.

He nodded, and started to light the fire to roast the bamboo slices again, this time he was more familiar with the process.

"Then you taught that sister the bow and arrow last time but didn't teach this, what should I do?" Bai Fang frowned slightly, and said worriedly, "There are so many people in their tribe, if they rob us..."

Mu Feng laughed and said, "Teaching her to make bows and arrows is because she gave so many furs and salt, and the tribe also lacks these things. If she comes later, it won't be such a good thing!"

"Ah?" White Fang said worriedly, "Then what if she gets angry?"

"Angry?" Mu Feng shook his head and smiled, "No, if she robs us, it will be the first time, arrest you all, and take me away."

"But it's not worth it for them. They can't kill you if they catch you. If I kill you, I won't tell them how to do it. If you don't kill them, it's not worthwhile to let them feed us for nothing."

"That girl is also a smart person, she knows what is best for their tribe!" Mufeng commented maturely, "Otherwise she wouldn't have become Yemaduo."

"That girl..." Bai Fang repeated, curled his lips, dimples appeared on his face again, "Say it as if you are very big!"

"White Fang!" Li Hu reprimanded lightly, but the corners of his mouth couldn't help showing a smile.

"Er..." Mu Feng touched his nose.

He snorted softly, not really sullen, but said with a smile: "It seems that our Jiang family also needs a capable woman!"

Unexpectedly, Bai Fang lifted his head up, revealing his snow-white neck, like a proud swan: "I am!"

"Okay, okay!" Mu Feng praised with a thumbs up, "Just wait for you to become powerful in the future!"

As he said that, Mufeng dropped the baked bamboo slices with stones again to shape them.

Then he looked at Ming Guang and Han Shu: "Single-piece bow is easy for you, but it can't show your strength. So you two are so strong, you need double-piece or three-piece bow."

"In addition to bows requiring greater strength, you also need special protective gear!"

"Protective gear?" The two looked at me and I at you, puzzled.

"It's just that when you draw the bowstring, don't your fingers pinch the bowstring. After a long time or too many times, your fingers will be cut and your accuracy will be affected, so you need finger guards."

Mu Feng picked up the bow and arrow and signaled: "Did you see that these fingers are the ones who pull the string! Come on, Ming Guang, pull it once and then let go!"

Illuminati do.

Mu Feng asked with a smile, "Do you feel a slight tremor in your fingers?"

Mingguang felt it carefully, and then realized: "The strength of a single-piece bow is weak, but a double-piece bow will hurt your fingers, right?"

"That's right! Bows like double-bladed bows and triple-bladed bows are more powerful, and the bow strings will also be more elastic, just like this..." Mu Feng demonstrated.

"See, these three fingers are easily injured when pulling the bowstring. When shooting, the small arm holding the bow and the shoulder position are easily injured by the bowstring!"

"Ah, so dangerous?" White Fang exclaimed.

Mu Feng nodded. Swords and powerful weapons are so sharp that they can cause self-injury if not used properly.

But Ming Guang's eyes lit up, and he asked excitedly: "Great Chief, the bowstrings of the two bows are so strong, so the arrows shot are also more powerful?"

Mu Feng nodded, Ming Guang realized the point: "You will know when it is done!"

Ming Guang became excited: "If everyone in the Jiang family has bows and arrows like this..."

Mu Feng said with a smile: "Then our Jiang family will have an army of bows and arrows! Even a big tribe can't threaten us!"

"This!" Several people became excited instantly, their faces flushed red.

Mingguang asked again: "But how about the protective gear?"

"This is easy!" Mu Feng laughed, "There are enough furs in the tribe now, and it can be used as a shoulder pad and arm pad for the left shoulder."

"There is also the python skin that was cut off yesterday. It is clean enough to be used as finger protectors!"

At the same time, he secretly sighed in his heart: "Python skin finger protectors, leather protective gear, these are rare in previous lives!"
