Chapter 355 The magic weapon has just become
Due to excessive tension before, Wu Zhongyuan came to his senses after a long time, and a feeling of joy began to come to his mind. This trip not only got the purple turbulent oil used to increase the temperature of the furnace, but also got the dragon tendon bow string that matched the iron tree. It was really a killing of two birds with one stone and fulfilled its wish.
However, the feeling of joy did not last long and was diluted by guilt and self-blame. Things are good things, but the origin is not right. This oil lamp is the eternal lamp in the ancestral tomb of the barbarians, but he stole it and took it for himself. This behavior is like a false change of harm to others and benefiting others.
But with just a flash of thought, guilt and self-blame were driven away by reason. If the five seals were eliminated, this place would become an enemy-occupied area. Anything in the enemy-occupied area would be used by the enemy. To take a step back, even if the five evil spirits did not take away this oil lamp, the oil lamp was also a serious waste to put it in the ancestral grave of the barbarians. You should know that what he did was not for his own selfish interests, and was equivalent to performing official duties, resisting the invasion of the five invasions, and ensuring that the world is not trampled and enslaved by the five invasions is his task. In order to ensure that the task can be completed, he can recruit anything he needs.
Everyone should work hard to be a good person, but there is no need to be strict with themselves by the standards of a saint. No one's character is flawless. If you blindly pursue the absolute purity of character, you will fall into unnecessary entanglement and even worry about gains and losses.
There were a lot of rags left in the stone chamber, but Wu Zhongyuan did not use the rag to wipe the dragon tendons, but cut off a clean strip of cloth from the quilt and carefully wiped the grease stained on the dragon tendons. Since the dragon tendons had been soaked in the grease before, the grease had been deeply soaked in it, and it still looked greasy after rubbing it several times.
While wiping the dragon tendon, Wu Zhongyuan was also carefully looking at the dragon tendon. The oil in the dragon tendon and the oil lamp should come from the same dragon-shaped creature. The reason why it is said to be a dragon-shaped creature rather than a snake-shaped creature is because he had seen a strange phenomenon when the oil lamp was lit. The shape of the fire was a winding and lively little dragon. This flame dragon must be the body and shape of the dragon-shaped creature before its lifetime.
There is a simple and intuitive standard for distinguishing between real dragons and dragon-like creatures, that is, whether the dragon has claws. The flame dragon has four claws, which means that it is undoubtedly a real dragon.
Since many years have passed, how the ancestors of the Yi people hunted a real dragon, it is impossible to investigate and verify, but it is certain that the oil in the dragon tendon and the oil lamp come from the real dragon. It is precisely because these two things come from the real dragon that the oil can emit higher temperatures, and the dragon tendon has stronger toughness and can withstand greater tension than ordinary dragon tendons.
After roughly wiping the dragon tendons, Wu Zhongyuan took the iron tree used as a bow and wiped it carefully with a cloth piece stained with grease. The purpose of this is not to make the iron tree look brighter and smoother, but to improve the toughness of the iron tree. Next, it needs to be bound and tied. After being stained with grease, the brittleness of the iron tree will be reduced, and it will be more tough when bent and will not be easily broken.
After rubbing it halfway, he suddenly remembered that there was a small hole left on the oil lamp after the wick was pulled out. Although the grease was not easy to evaporate, he still tore off the cloth strip and plugged the small hole.
When Li Bie came back, Wu Zhongyuan was polishing the grooves of the two ends of the bow and arrow to fix the dragon tendons. Hearing the sound of pushing the door, Wu Zhongyuan looked up at Li Bie, "Why is it so fast? When is the time outside now?"
"At dawn." Li Bie walked over to Wu Zhongyuan.
"I didn't leave you intentionally," Wu Zhongyuan explained, "I don't want them..."
Before Wu Zhongyuan finished speaking, Li Bie shook his head and said, "They have seen me."
Seeing that Li looked worried, Wu Zhongyuan guessed what she was worried about, so he comforted him, "Don't worry, there is no evidence. Even if they go to argue with the birds, there will be no result."
After hearing Wu Zhongyuan's words, Li Bu nodded and turned to stare at the oil lamp that Wu Zhongyuan put aside, "What are you doing with their oil lamp?"
"I want to make a bow and arrow, and I need to use the dragon tendon wick inside," Wu Zhongyuan said casually, and afterwards, he added, "The lamp oil in the oil lamp is also very useful."
Because Wu Zhongyuan said it too briefly, Li Bie didn't understand it very well, but she did not continue to ask questions. Instead, she squatted down and looked at the oil lamp up close, and then looked at the plate of dragon tendons that had been wiped clean by Wu Zhongyuan.
"Why is this dragon tendon purple?" Li Bi asked.
"I don't know." Wu Zhongyuan shook his head. It was not that he didn't want to say it, but that he didn't know why the dragon tendon was purple. After all, he had never seen the dragon tendon of a real dragon before.
"Did you take other things from them?" Li Bie asked again.
Wu Zhongyuan was busy bowing his head, "No."
Li Bie didn't ask any more, got up and walked towards the door, sat down on his own bed, and quietly watched Wu Zhongyuan rubbing the grooves used to fix the bowstring.
Grinding the grooves is also very laborious. If they are shallow, they will not be tied firmly. If they are deep, they may break after being subjected to stress.
In addition, the size of the grooves that bind the bow string must be closely integrated with the dragon tendon, and the dragon tendon has a certain degree of extension. It is necessary to ensure that the dragon tendon can still be stuck in the grooves after becoming thinner when the bow is opened without moving back and back.
Since we always need to be forward-looking and considerate, the progress is very slow. I noticed that I was a little tired, Wu Zhongyuan paused the work at hand and lie down and rested. As the saying goes, sharpening the knife will not delay chopping wood. When a person is tired, not only will his work efficiency be greatly reduced, but he is also prone to errors and deviations.
When you wake up, you are busy. After the grooves at both ends are worn, the reverse bow is started to be shaped. The so-called reverse bow means that both ends of the bow body need to be bent in reverse to ensure that the bow string will not fall off when the bow is opened, and it plays a blocking and fixed safety function.
Although the progress was very slow, his movements were very skillful and orderly. If it were someone else, he would definitely ask him why he was so good at making bows and arrows. Although Li Bie was also very curious, he did not ask questions. When Wu Zhongyuan was busy, she did not bother him from beginning to end. Most of the time she closed her eyes and practiced her energy. Occasionally, she opened her eyes and just watched quietly.
The trunk of the iron tree is about the size of a bowl without being peeled and polished. Even if it is peeled and dehydrated, it is as thick as a fist. The iron tree used as a bow is not a complete trunk, but a part of the trunk. The arm is filled with spiritual energy to slowly bend it. Tie one end first, and then tie it to the other end after bent to the desired arc.
While bending, Wu Zhongyuan kept closing his eyes and listening carefully to whether the iron tree made abnormal noises. The wood would make subtle sounds after being subjected to force. In fact, any sound was a sign of wood damage and fracture. Fortunately, the iron tree did not make abnormal noises during the bending process.
Seeing Wu Zhongyuan bent one hand and stretching the bowstring with the other hand, Li Bie asked in a low voice, "Do you need help?"
Wu Zhongyuan shook his head. He could skillfully tie knots with one hand without the help of others.
Finally, the last moment was that the size of the dragon tendon was just enough, but it needed a little surplus to tie it up and fix it. In order to win this half inch, I could only continue to bend the bow body or try to stretch the bow string.
Wu Zhongyuan did not choose one of two, but took both. After taking a deep breath, he grabbed the left hand of the bow and pressed down with force, and lifted up with force with the right hand of the bow string. In this way, he finally met the binding requirement. After two rapid rotations, his index finger reversed the string head and pushed it up with the middle finger. He urgently lowered his head and bit the string head, raised his head and tightened it, loosened his hands, and rebounded the bow body, and the bow strings at both ends were tightened at the same time, and the force was stuck.
After a heavy breath, Wu Zhongyuan held the bow with one hand, sobbed the middle finger to test the elasticity. Compared with ordinary bows and arrows, the bow string of this bow is too tight and almost inelastic. Ordinary people cannot use it at all. Unless the purple qi masters are not allowed to pull the bow full.
At this moment, Wu Zhongyuan's heart was filled with joy. Compared with the magic weapon left by his predecessors, the satisfaction brought by creating a magic weapon himself was even stronger. The former was inheritance, while the latter was creation, which was a world of difference, and the highest was judged immediately.
Seeing Li Bie appearing curious, Wu Zhongyuan threw the longbow over and said, "Come on, feel it."
Li Bie reached out to take it, and after looking at it, she tried to draw the bow. She was able to draw the bow. Although she could draw the bow, it seemed very difficult.
"This bow is probably not useful for ordinary people." Li Bi said.
"This is not a shortcoming." Wu Zhongyuan smiled. The bow and arrow he made could not be used at all by ordinary people. Even the Blue Qi Warrior could only barely draw a half-bow. If you want to use it normally, you must at least have a purple Qi master. Such a high threshold is both a limitation and a glory.
To judge the value of a thing, in addition to the thing itself, it also depends on whether everyone can own it. If everyone can own it, no matter how good it is, its value will not be very high.
Li Biedi pointed to the fingers that loosened the bow string, and the bow string was turned back as soon as it was bounced, and it did not have continuous vibration like ordinary bows and arrows.
Seeing that the bowstring stopped as soon as it was bounced, Li Bie looked up in shock and threw a surprised look at Wu Zhongyuan. At this time, bows and arrows were very common, and all warriors would use bows and arrows, and she was no exception. It was rare for the bowstring to not be continuously vibrated. The direct result was that after one arrow was shot, the second arrow could be shot immediately, greatly shortening the interval between continuous bows.
After trying the bowstring, Li Bie began to carefully look at the curvature of the bow body and the position of the bowstring binding. It was all the best proportions, and even the tied rope head was abnormally regular.
After looking at it, Li Bie returned the longbow to Wu Zhongyuan. She did not throw it away, but came over and handed it to him, "What a good bow."
"Give it to you." Wu Zhongyuan did not take the longbow.
"What did you say?" Li Bei looked at him in shock.
"If you like it, I'll give it to you!" Wu Zhongyuan said seriously. He was not just talking. He really wanted to give it to him. Although he liked this longbow so much that he couldn't let it go, he gave it to Li Bei without any reluctance. The reason is very simple. Li Bei saved his life. Nothing is more important than life. However, this is not the only reason. He also subconsciously hopes to pay off the debt of favors and give Li Bei an explanation. Li Bei is a good person, and good people should not be empty-handed.
"I don't want it." Li stopped handing it.
"I really want to give it to you." Wu Zhongyuan said.
"Why did you give me such a good thing?" Li Bie seemed a little nervous.
Wu Zhongyuan did not answer the conversation immediately. He was thinking about how to answer, and also wondering why Li Bei was nervous.
Li Bie stuffed the bow and arrow into his hand, lowered his head, and turned around and left.
Although Li Don't lowered her head, Wu Zhongyuan found that she was blushing, clearly shy.
