The sound of the axe slashing on the tree trunk one after another.

The axe was swung vigorously and deeply embedded in the tree trunk. After stirring up a burst of small wood chips, the members of the Exploration Team shook the handle of the axe and pulled it out forcefully.

The tree trunk has been cut through a gap large enough, and the whole tree begins to become on the verge of collapse.

The logging team members yelled loudly and issued a reminder, and then several people worked hard together to pedal on the tree trunk.

The tree trunk made a creaking sound and then fell to the ground. Accompanied by the fine sound of countless branches being broken, the leaves fly around.

Although the Exploration Team only brought a few axe, it greatly improved the efficiency and saved the players’ physical energy consumption.

Next, section the tree trunk into many parts for easy transportation.

These tree trunks will be transported to the camp in a rolling motion, where they will be processed in detail.

Exploration Team does not carry a saw.

However, Zhen Jin lent them.

Zhen Jin’s “saw” comes from Blade Edge Spider. The spider’s hind limbs are slender and straight with a row of tight spikes. This is a natural good saw.

Blade Edge Spider is the magic beast of Silver Rank. The members of Exploration Team quickly realized the power of Silver Rank magic beast from another angle.

They worked together in pairs, using Blade Edge Spider legs to saw through the thick tree trunk, just like using a sharp knife to easily cut white bread.

old scholar Cang Xu has a wealth of leadership and command experience.

Because Zhen Jin is in charge, he divides the people in his hands into two groups.

A group of logging, a group of peeling bark, tear the inner bark into strips of filaments.

Every once in a while, the two groups will take turns to change the content of their work. In this way, the team members can save energy, take a break, and keep the work progress.

In one morning, the logging team overfulfilled the task.

A large amount of wood, rolling section by section, was transported to the camp one after another, and temporarily stacked in the corner.

There are also filaments torn from the bark, which have been smeared with potion.

The lunch was increased, and almost everyone was very hungry.

Bai Ya and Huang Zao are also back for dinner.

They didn’t have much harvest, only a few flying birds and a pheasant. This gain is obviously incomparable with the manpower, time, etc., but at least they cleared the mountains and forests near the camp once again.

To everyone’s surprise, Zhen Jin also ordered that there will be a short nap after lunch. This has never happened before.

This is actually Cang Xus suggestion that the lunch break can ensure the teams work efficiency in the afternoon.

Although the logging work is over, the workload is still very large.

A large number of tree trunks are chopped and chopped to form blocks of wood, which are the prototypes of short bow arms.

Therefore, the length and thickness of the board are required.

Even if the plank is in the original position of the entire tree trunk, it is best to be the tree core.

This is joinery’s job.

It would be great if there is a carpenter, but the members of the Exploration Team are laymen, so the laymans nature is immediately revealed-many tree trunks are destroyed, and many planks are chopped out, but After Bai Ya inspection, they were all unqualified.

Unqualified planks can be used to arrange hunter traps.

Even the broken wood can be used to burn fire at least. After burning, the charcoal and wood ash formed are also good resources and have high practical value.

Exploration Team has reached this point, and any resource is required. The resources that are available will never be let go easily.

The progress of woodworking is quite slow, which makes Zhen Jin’s worry and impatience accumulate.

Although he knows that, he can’t be anxious.

To be honest, Zi Di’s potion did help him a lot, which saved him the most critical time.

Furthermore, Cang Xu’s arrangement is also very reasonable and adequate. This old scholar has already estimated the unqualified situation.

After the members of the Exploration Team became familiar with this work, the loss of wood began to decrease greatly.

Qualified boards have been born one after another, and more and more.

The number of planks rose to a certain level, and Cang Xu instructed everyone to start using planks to make short bow arms.

This process is actually quite simple.

You only need to cut the plank into thinner strips to form a shape that is slightly thicker in the middle and slightly thinner at the ends, and cut out notches at both ends to facilitate hanging bowstrings in the future.

The made short bow arm will be smeared by potion after Bai Ya checks and confirms, and it will be placed in a dark corner to dry.

After the end of this work, many people shouted that they could become archers.

More people keep moving their fingers or kneading their arms, arms, thighs and other muscles. The pain and tingling made them grinning.

Their bodies are close to their limits, but there are other tasks waiting for them.

A lot of arrow needs to be made.

There is generally a standard for the selection of arrow shafts. For wood that meets the standard, it is cut into a long cylinder, and then the surface is ground.

On the Exploration Team side, of course, there is no mature processing link.

The main material of their arrow is branches, which should be as straight as possible and close to the length and thickness of the normal arrow.

Bai Ya instructed everyone to make arrow. First, poke the skin of the branches to make arrow shafts, then carefully cut the feathers with a knife, and then paste them with potion to make arrow feathers. The last step is to bake the arrow slightly to make the wood harden after being carbonized, and then sharpen it.

The arrow made in this way is far from being compared with regular military supplies.

First of all, the selection of arrow shafts is worse. The selection of arrow feathers is not top-notch, it is completely shoddy, but you should not dislike it.

The feathers in the Exploration Team are too few. Most of them come from the feathers and bird feathers Bai Ya hunted today, so each one must be cherished.

The only comforting thing is the potion temporarily configured by Zi Di-the stickiness is really firm!

As for the arrow, it was simply shabby.

There is no iron arrow.

If you really use it, it will be scrapped after a few times.

The lethality is naturally low, but it is still threatening to deal with ordinary wild beasts.

Besides the creation of Arrow, there are other tasks.

For example, a wooden shield is taller than a person and wider. Use tree trunks and rattans to assemble and form, and pestle on the ground to form a very simple and short curtain wall.

This is also called a shield.

A long time ago, when the human race attacked the castle, there were such fortifications.

By now, such fortifications have long been eliminated.

Even if someone uses it, at least a layer of iron is covered on the surface.

In addition to the shield, there is also a wooden long spear.

Exploration Team members can assassinate Flying Squirrel within a certain safe distance with guns in both hands.

But this tactic is only better than nothing, because everyone knows that the mouse is fast and can glide in midair, the tail adjusts the direction in the air, and the posture is very flexible.

What everyone is looking forward to is mainly the short bow.

In the evening, the torn bark was completely dry in the shade. People sighed about Zi Di’s method and started rubbing the hemp rope.

The technique of rubbing the rope is also learned from Bai Ya.

There are tips here.

Firstly, a strand of filament is divided into two bundles, and each bundle rotates counterclockwise. When the two bundles are merged, it rotates clockwise. In this way, the woven rope will be tighter and will not easily fall apart.

Hemp rope is used as a bowstring. Each short bow is equipped with at least two bowstrings, one for common use and one for spare.

When it comes to dinner at night, the bowstring is basically enough.

Like noon, dinner is also very rich. There is also game, which has become a rare flavor adjustment for everyone.

Early morning on 2nd day.

Zhen Jin and the others both got up early because there is an important thing to do–

Try the bow.

Leave it for one night, and add the potion of Zi Di, the bow has dried out.

Bai Ya tried to grasp both ends of the bow arm with two hands and bend it hard. After seeing the bow arm bend a large arc, he grinned and said with a smile: “Great. Better than me I think its better.”

Cang Xu pondered then said: “Huang Zao, give you a task. Break this bow arm, but you must slowly use force.”

Huang Zao understood what Cang Xu meant, and immediately proceeded. When the bow arm was bent to its limit, it broke into two parts with a click.

As everyone witnessed it with their own eyes, they all immediately understood the endurance limit of this simple bow arm.

Cang Xu estimated: “It seems that only one twine can be used as a bowstring.”

No one has any objections.

Sometimes, multiple hemp ropes are combined to form a bowstring. But after the test, the toughness and limit of this short bow arm, a hemp rope is more appropriate.

Bai Ya tied the bowstring, he played live buckles, clever and reliable.

Immediately, the hunter’s son hit the arrow, aimed at the target in the distance, and shot the arrow with a swish.

Everyone looks at with their eyes wide open.

Obviously, the arrow that was originally moved towards up ahead flew directly to the upper left, and then landed obliquely.

The range has reached more than fifty steps.

It’s far away from the target-I don’t know where it’s crooked.

But everyone did not express disappointment, Zhen Jin was even slightly nodded-he knew this was just the beginning.

The bow needs to be adjusted.

The bow arm created is very rough, and you need to keep using the dagger to wait for items to continue processing the bow arm. Also adjust the bowstring and arrow. With this process, the quasi-head of the shortbow will become stable and the range will be greatly improved.

Finally, after the debugging of Bai Ya, arrow successfully hit the target a hundred steps away, and the arrow shot into the depth of two fingers.

For this result, Zhen Jin is already very satisfied.

On the one hand, this is not a compound bow, but a single bow. The bow arms and bowstrings are all made locally, not carefully selected. On the other hand, arrow also doesn’t have iron arrows, it’s just sharpened after carbonization and the processing is very rough.

It is very good to have such a performance.

Because Zhen Jin doesn’t require much.

They are now in the middle of the forest. It is not a grassland vast and empty terrain. Longbows are not suitable.

The members of the Exploration Team are not excellent archers. Most people drive a duck onto a perch. Dont expect them to have any accuracy beyond a hundred steps.

“Because of the limitations of the environment and personnel, the effective range of the shortbow can be one hundred steps, which is already ok.”

“The key point is that within this hundred steps, How many arrows can we shoot? If we can shoot more than three arrows and have a certain accuracy, then the shortbow plan is considered successful.”
