Survival male god

Chapter 177 Forging Weapons

Whoa!

A large pile of bones was thrown to the ground by Chen Jing.

After cooking the wild vegetables and water he found, he ate a delicious meal with roasted palm cores. After a short rest, he immediately started to process the bones.

"The skeleton of land creatures, the hardest and densest bone in the whole body, is usually the femur, that is, the thigh bone of the hind limb."

"It doesn't matter if it's tigers or lions, cows or horses, bear dogs, orangutans, monkeys or even primates like humans."

"The femur bears most of the weight of the whole body. It is the main moving bone. Its hardness is no less than that of iron and stone. Ordinary iron tools may not even be able to cut these bones."

"The femur is good for bone knives, and even though they're both barrel-shaped, we just grind one side for a sharp edge."

"Although its thick blade does not conform to human mechanics, compared with metal knives, bone knives are much lighter and do not affect daily use."

Chen Jing held a piece of femur and examined it carefully. It was about 40 centimeters long, which was just the right length.

Putting the femur down, he picked up a hind tibia.

"This is the lower leg bone. It is second only to the femur in hardness. It is relatively thinner. After the lower part is polished, it is bound or cut with a wooden handle. It is a bone spear. This is a long weapon."

"As for the front leg bone, it is more slender than the hind leg bone. After grinding off the irregular and thicker joint heads on both sides, it can be combined with wood chips to make a bone bow."

"Strong ribs can be sawn into small pieces and used to make arrowheads."

"A bow, a machete, and a spear, that's all I have in mind."

"There is no doubt that after these weapons are made, they will definitely have a strong lethality!"

After a brief introduction, Chen Jing arranged the bones in different categories.

The skull and the missing spine were useless, and he didn't bring them back.

In fact, these bones only weigh forty or fifty catties, and basically they can't be used up.

After all, the amount of each type of bone is not small, and there is a guarantee of specialization. As long as you don't close your eyes and mess around, you should not get the materials to be scrapped.

Chen Jing sat on the rotten wood, thinking about what he needed.

"I have stones for grinding and ropes for binding. Besides, to make bone bows and bone arrows, you need to use adhesives, and you need to collect some pine resin and tree varnish."

"Next time, I will bring all these things back within an hour."

Chen Jing is full of energy now, and he looks like a different person from just now.

Many viewers couldn't understand why he was so excited.

【"Isn't it just a pile of bones? As for being happy like this?"

"It seems rare to see Jingshen using bones as tools."

"It takes more work than a stone to make this thing, and there is still half a day. Can you do it?"

"I should be busy until late, tonight I can see Jingshen lighting up the night battle."]

Seeing that everyone obviously lacked knowledge of bone products, Chen Jing explained:

"I can't help but be excited. If I don't have a weapon, I will be helpless when I face the giant python. I can only wait to die. Everyone should understand my previous situation."

"It's just a small tooth-picking knife made out of iron nails, which poses no threat to pythons."

"Even if I don't go into the water and stay in the swamp forest, if those giant pythons really come, I will still die without a place to die."

"Don't think everything will be fine if you hide, they will definitely find me."

"And how many days can I hide?"

"Obviously, the resources here are not enough to support my long-term survival, and I still have to go out after all."

"With these bones, I see the hope of life. Its existence gives me the possibility to take the initiative."

In addition to analyzing the situation, Chen Jing also popularized the bone artifacts with everyone.

The earliest record of human use of bone tools can be traced back to the Paleolithic age 10 years ago.

At that time, the primitive people still lived a full and hungry life, and used weapons made of stones and bones to deal with ferocious beasts.

After the transition to the Neolithic Age, bone tools were gradually reduced to farming tools and ornaments.

Because they are rare in number and lack of technical means, it is difficult to preserve them for a long time, and the processing difficulty is also higher than that of stone tools.

However, through a lot of archaeological research, scientists have found that in ancient primitive tribes, bone objects, whether used as weapons or ornaments, are usually held by older and higher-status tribesmen.

Until their death, those bone utensils were buried together and brought "underground" for use.

There is no doubt that although bone tools cannot become a symbol of productivity in the old age, their importance is no less than that of stone tools, and in terms of sophistication, they far exceed the latter.

When dealing with ferocious beasts, sharper bone tools can often cause higher damage.

After introducing these, at the end, Chen Jing jokingly said that he is actually similar to a primitive man now.

If the combat power of an empty hand is 100 points, then with a stone weapon, the combat power will be doubled to 200 points, and if it is a bone weapon, it will be at least tripled to 300 points.

Although there is still a big gap with the giant python with a combat power of 500 points, at least he can see the hope of winning.

"The difference between bone weapons and stone weapons is like the difference between blue equipment and purple equipment in online games."

"I found this skeleton, which is equivalent to using raw materials to create a purple suit. It will naturally be easier to fight the boss. Do you think I can be unhappy?"

In the live broadcast room, most of them are young people.

Chen Jing's vivid explanation made everyone laugh.

【"Laughing to death, but it really sounds like that!"

"The difficulty of the survival game played by the anchor is also too high, why not krypton gold?"

"That's right, spend money to build a set of heavy firepower, da da da let these pythons all rush."

"That's cheating, and the government doesn't allow it. If you want to do this, there is no restricted area in the wilderness in this world, and no taboo creature can withstand a nuclear bomb!"

"Indeed, but all the wilderness restricted areas are pushed so flatly, I guess they will only be able to eat nuclear waste and drink nuclear waste water in the future."

"You have a fighting power of one hundred, and Hank and Joseph can't fight more than sixty. Isn't it true that the fighting power of us is only thirty or forty?"

"Don't be embarrassing, my combat power is only five, and I have never killed such a big chicken. Let me catch bugs and snakes, it is better to kill me."

"plus one!"

"Wooooow, suddenly I feel so weak..."]

Chen Jing was too lazy to talk nonsense, he collected as much resin and gum as possible from the pine and cypress trees, and put them all into a cut bottle.

After it was almost enough, I moved another stone in the mud and rushed back directly.

The sun was out today, and the washed bones dried quickly. He picked up a femur and started grinding it straight away.

The white bone powder quickly piled up a thick layer on the stone, and sweat dripped from Chen Jing's face continuously.

After more than two hours, the first big bone machete finally took shape.

There is no point of the knife, the back of the knife is round, the blade is narrow, very sharp, a light cut will leave a deep knife mark on the water willow tree next to it.

This machete is neither long nor short, neither light nor heavy, and it is very handy.

Chen Jing was very satisfied.

Before he had time to wipe off the sweat from his face, he took the bone knife to the woods to try it out, and it worked very well.

"Using it to chop down trees and snakes is not a problem at all. The only shortcoming of the bone knife is that after the blade is broken, it can no longer be repaired. It will only get worse and worse until it is scrapped."

"It's not like an iron knife, which can be re-sharpened after being rolled, and it's not like a stone tool, which can be smashed lightly after the blade breaks, and it's a sharp edge again."

"This thing is very expensive, but I don't expect it to last long. At least in the next two weeks, it will be my reliable partner!"

"Now chop some firewood and go back. Next I will smelt the gum, make a bone bow, and polish the arrow."

"We have to speed up, our time is too precious to waste!"

Chen Jing could feel that the crisis was gradually approaching.
