Chapter 129 Writing and Bows and Arrows

"The tendons of beasts have been collected by the tribe, but there are not many left. When we are hungry, we will use them to satisfy our hunger, and there are only a few left..."

Pihu didn't show any embarrassment. Filling his stomach is the most important thing in the wilderness, and everything else is empty.

When the famine comes, the tribe will eat everything that can be eaten. Even in the earliest and worse era, when there is no human emperor to lead the human tribe, cannibalism will even occur.

Most of the time, they are vassals of some powerful races, following behind them, picking up some food scraps.

At that time, not to mention the bottom of the food chain, it is almost the same, and it may become the blood food of other powerful races at any time.

It was an era of extreme fear and disgust, and it was also the tragedy of the human race, because the human race at that time had no ability to catch prey.

Tang Xuanming asked to find animal tendons, but after searching the entire tribe, he could only find three, and the others were all eaten.

The black-scaled horse that was captured before did have animal tendons, but it hasn't been properly treated, so it can't be used now.

"These three are enough, it's just an experiment!"

Tang Xuanming waved his hand, indicating that there is no problem.

Tang Xuanming made the good wooden stick crooked, and tied the processed animal tendon to both ends of the wooden stick, forming a weird half-moon shape, which Puhu was very puzzled.

Tang Xuanming tried to bend the bow, and the strong rebound made him nod his head.

"What is this? A toy for those children? It takes so much effort!"

Pihu has always been eager to learn, and he can always ask carefully about things he doesn't know or understand.

"This is not a toy."

Tang Xuanming drew the bowstring to the full, took out an arrow that had already been made, put it on the bow, aimed his eyes at a big tree fifty feet away, and shot it out.

"This……"

Pihu's pupils contracted for a moment, and with his sharp eyes, he could see a big hole in the big tree fifty feet away.

Tang Xuanming was very satisfied with his expression, staring at the big tree he shot through, and said calmly: "This is the best hunting tool."

At the same time, he also heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. There is still a long way to go for the Mohism mechanism to take root here.

He had already tried to make a crossbow three days ago, but the lethality made him shake his head.

The lethality of crossbow arrows cannot be said to be insignificant. Qin State swept the world, and crossbow arrows accounted for a very important proportion in it.

But here, every child is like Xiang Yu, not to mention those adult hunters, each of them has a strength of more than [-] jin.

For them, the lethality of crossbow bolts is not as good as the ancient spears thrown at random, and ordinary crossbow bolts can hardly even break through the defense of fierce beasts.

Only primitive tools such as bows and arrows, combined with their inhuman strength, can erupt with unparalleled power.

"Can you give me a try?"

Pihu was very excited, and was more and more grateful for the decision to bring Tang Xuanming back to the tribe that day. With such hunting tools, he didn't need to take huge risks in many cases.

Long-distance sniping is much better than close-range combat.

"promise!"

Tang Xuanming casually threw the huge bow in his hand to Paihu, and the rough man hurriedly took it.

Then he bent the bow and set the arrow with extremely jerky movements, and also aimed at a big tree with several people and the thickness of the arms fifty feet away, and shot out with one arrow.

Well, the shot cheated!The arrow didn't even leave the string, which is not the bow and arrow of later generations with all kinds of sights and auxiliary equipment.

It was the most primitive and rough handmade arrow. There was not even a groove on the arrow to get stuck on the string, so this arrow just bounced the bowstring heavily, and hit Pihu's hand with a snap.

The rough man's face didn't change at all, he just showed a little puzzled look, and then he carefully asked Tang Xuanming for his bow-bending and archery skills.

Tang Xuanming carefully explained some things that beginners need to pay attention to (in the world of Qin Shimingyue, bow and arrow is one of the subjects that the giants have to learn, and it is a joke that the master of the mechanism does not know how to use the machine he created), Pihu Soon, there were decent bows and arrows, aiming and shooting.

Shoot through a big tree that counts people and is thick and thin seventy feet away.

"awesome!"

Tang Xuanming was not stingy with his praise, but Pihu scratched his head in embarrassment, pointed to the big tree fifty feet away and said, "I'm aiming at it."

Although he was a little embarrassed, there was an undisguised joy on his face.

After trying several times, this skilled hunter quickly mastered the knack of archery, holding the big bow with joy, unwilling to let go.

Tang Xuanming didn't bother to come back, so he simply gave it to Pihu, it was just a shoddy product.

There is no tuning, no careful carving of the bowstring, and even the bow and arrow have not been strictly adjusted, and there is no uniform style.

It is an original product from the exploration period. After seeing exquisite crossbows and bows with uniform styles, such items are like toys.

Although the toy had the power of a bed crossbow in the hands of a savage, that couldn't hide its roughness.

After Tang Xuanming prepared to make further fine-tuning, he made a standard pattern and handed it over to the hunters in the tribe. Among them, the technology transformed from the pre-Qin period through decades, centuries, or even thousands of years does not require their understanding too much. That's it.

Primitive tribes don't need to understand too many things, just execute it.

Do you want Tang Xuanming to teach them the principles of engineering?

Don't be ridiculous, even the heart, liver, spleen and lungs need Tang Xuanming's painstaking efforts to pay, and it is even more difficult to teach others.

Food needs to be eaten bite by bite, and the road needs to be walked step by step. It is impossible to reach the sky in one step.

"Should we call them writing? There is no writing in the tribe. God knows how they succeeded in practicing the Ant Emperor's Law."

Tang Xuanming has deeply experienced the poverty and backwardness of the tribe during these days of teaching. These people can't do other things except hunting, eating and giving birth.

Eating and giving birth are normal behaviors, and there is no need to say more.

A careful analysis of the behavior of the tribe can be divided into hunting in progress and hunting preparations.

It could be said that these savages were either hunting or on their way to hunt.

The daily training is all about how to hunt, and after the training is done, just randomly go crazy with the group of bear kids.

"Writing is not easy to teach. Judging from the spread of the Ant Emperor's Law, the human race in this world should have a corresponding set of characters, but people in this primitive tribe don't know how to record the Ant Emperor's Law by rote memorization and passing down from generation to generation. Come down!"

These days Tang Xuanming has discovered that the children of those tribes have to memorize the Ant Emperor's Law by rote, and there are adult hunters who teach them carefully.

Their language is not standardized, but they all use common examples in the wilderness as examples, and often point to the heart, liver, spleen and lungs, etc., and introduce the operation process of the Ant Emperor Method in detail, which is similar to Tang Xuanming's teaching.

Although the learning efficiency is extremely low, there is so much time to stop the tribe!

He chanted the Ant Emperor's method all day long, no matter how stupid he was, he learned it.
