Survive in the beast world

Chapter 60 Ancient Weapon

The next day, when Yang Apa came to deliver the medicine again, Shi Amu had just left, and Li Shizhen was playing games with a group of small animals outside.

It happened that the small ball he made before could come in handy. The way he designed it was very simple. He used twigs to set a few boundaries on the grass, and set a goal on one side.

The little tigers and the little wolves happened to be divided into two groups, and they fought against each other to see which side scored more goals. The whole game was quite simple, and Li Shizhen's three-legged cat's language level plus gestures and demonstrations could make them understand.He didn't add more red and yellow card rules. After all, they are all small animals on all fours. To distinguish between basketball and football, cough, this.

However, the little tiger with orange fur and black stripes seemed to be a bit unwilling to "woo" and looked critically at the three white wolf cubs opposite with amber eyes, obviously not very happy to form a team with any of them.

To be honest, the little tiger is quite beautiful, with colorful fur, round eyes, semi-round ears, and flicking tail. Everyone will pet and prefer beautiful children, and there is nothing wrong with being proud.

But sometimes it offends people with a proud attitude, just look at the three little wolves opposite whose tails are bristling.Cough, in fact, the snow-white little wolf or something, with its clear eyes slightly blue, is also very cute.

Li Shi held his forehead, and saw that it was a one-vs-three, or a three-for-one rhythm, so he hurried forward to stop it.

Let them play a one-on-three warm-up match first, Li Shizhen only said that they are not allowed to bite, maybe scratch each other, throw the small ball in their hands, and let the four small animals fight.

The scene of four furry little animals whirling around a ball on the green grass should not be too funny. Since they are not allowed to bite or scratch, the little wolves are quite smart. Two of them sat on the little tiger, and the rest The next one started filling the ball.

The little tiger is very anxious, but even if you are brave, you can’t knock down two little wolves who are about the same size at once. Struggling, the little wolves just pressed it and didn't move. It was a big fluffy ball, not to mention Coke.

The Amappas who watched around couldn't straighten up laughing.

Li Shizhen was also one of the unscrupulous onlookers who waited until the little wolf scored ten goals before letting them let go of the little tiger.

The little tiger was a little teary-eyed, Li Shizhen gently touched his head, children are sometimes too proud and will have friction with their friends.And life outside is so difficult, it is impossible for one person to handle everything, we still need to learn to cooperate.

The white tiger is so powerful, if it wasn't for Li Shizhen who was by his side when he transformed, he probably wouldn't be able to make it through. On this continent where life is difficult, even a little tiger who grew up in this fairyland would know that he would not face survival in the future challenge?

The little tiger sniffed suspiciously. When Li Shizhen assigned the youngest wolf cub to his side again, he hesitated for a moment and did not refuse again.

The little wolves are a little unhappy, just now you still disliked the nests, hehe, who wants to be with you.

Li Shizhen carried the little tiger and put it next to the little wolves. The little wolf's moist nose twitched, and he turned his head with a whine, and pointed his butt at the little tiger.

Li Shizhen saw that the little tiger was really about to cry.

He touched the little tiger's head, this, the children need a chance to get along well, thinking about it, I seem to have fought with my friends when I was young, how did they get along in the end?

Li Shixuan thought for a while, handed the ball to the little tiger, and motioned him to take the ball to find the little wolves, the little tiger hesitated for a moment, and went over with the ball in his mouth.

The oldest little wolf hesitated for a moment, but it seemed that the little tiger usually shared delicious and fun things together, so I will forgive him this time.

The little wolf bowed his head and arched the little ball, as a forgiveness for the little tiger.

Seeing the little white guy and the little guy with orange background and black stripes rubbing against each other affectionately, Li Shizhen laughed. The kids are so cute, they can fight and get angry one second, and they will be so affectionate in the next second. together.

Then the little guys on both sides started to separate and grab the ball. At this moment, no matter whether they were making out or not, whether they were of the same race or not, they started fighting, and the smell of gunpowder came up again.

The four little guys don't seem to be able to count at all. Li Shizhen taught them to simply add a branch next to the goal every time they scored a goal, and then they would know by comparing the two sides.

Is this the initial establishment of a concept of quantity in early childhood teaching?

Yang Apa, who watched the whole process with a basket in his hand, smiled and said nothing, his silver hair shining brightly in the sun.

Li Shizhen watched the little guys finally get into the game, only to notice that Yang Apa had been waiting beside him for how long.

He ran over and greeted the old man apologetically.

But Yang Apa waved his hand indifferently, stopping Li Shizhen's apology that he didn't know how to express in an unfamiliar language.

After Li Shizhen finished drinking the medicine, he stumbled and told Yang Apa that he would go to get the medicine by himself tomorrow, and Yang Apa agreed with a smile after hearing it.

After a while, Li Shizhen, who continued to work on the small animals, realized that he didn't know where Yang Apa lived!

Fortunately, Ying Amu, who came to him on time in the afternoon, was of great help, but...

“Yang Appa@#在……&￥”

"House #% has ... *@#"

Li Shizhen burst into tears, come on, don't describe it, the words he understands are worse than the words he doesn't understand.

At any rate, looking at Ying'am's gestures, I know that Yang Apa lives further north. There should be some obvious sign outside the door. The valley is only this big, and there is no danger. Even the cubs can play freely. I can find it myself.

After staying in the valley for a few days, Li Shizhen probably knew that not everyone lived in that warm cave like him, and most of them seemed to live further north, but he hadn't been there much.

After having breakfast that day and saying hello to Shi Amu, Li Shizhen thanked Jue Shi Amu for his kindness, and wandered to the north by himself. You can't bother him all the time.

The vegetation in the north seems to be much sparser. In some places, large areas of cliffs are exposed, and the trees are sparsely scattered, but the air is unexpectedly warm. It seems that the reason why they did not live in the cave is because it is warmer here.

A few rows of stone houses were built along the cliff in front. They are real houses made of stone, with doors and windows. Those large stones seem to be taken from the cliff next to them. Although the appearance is rough, they are already usable. This kind of strong material to build houses, instead of relying on natural caves, proves that the development of productivity in this valley is indeed good.

Li Shizhen recalled the sign in front of the door that Ying Amu said, and happened to see a separate small stone house in the corner, and a large stone was erected outside the door. What Ying Amu said should be something that is easier to recognize. Li Shizhen guessed that this room was probably the one, so he strolled over.

I called Yang Apa several times outside, but no one answered. Maybe Yang Apa was busy, didn't he hear?

So he opened the door curtain and walked in. If he made a mistake, he would come out.

As soon as he walked in, Li Shizhen immediately knew that he had entered the wrong room, and he originally wanted to leave immediately.

But the things in this room made him unable to control himself for a moment, and he stopped to watch.

This was beyond his expectation, a room that seemed very messy but actually quite organized.

There is a large workbench in the center of the room, and there are messy processing tools on the ground next to it, but the things on the workbench can be seen from the maker's thinking.

The producer is repeatedly using various types of wood for bending. On the other side are various vines, bark and even animal tendons. On the table are more various stones and bones. Or sharpened by grinding or hammering.

In the eyes of an outsider, such a workbench must be extremely messy, but Li Shizhen, who was born in engineering, is so familiar with this atmosphere that he can even guess the order of the workbench just by looking at it. Which combination attempts have been made by each producer, and which step is being prepared.

Obviously, all the objects on this workbench serve one object, and all material combinations and all shape tests are only for one object.

If Li Shizhen guessed correctly, it should be the bow and arrow.

Bows and arrows are definitely long-range weapons in the cold weapon era. If placed in the current primitive social environment, the role of bows and arrows is comparable to that of AK47.

Li Shizhen became even more curious. All the work of this maker did not seem to be groping in an orderly manner, because he seemed to be sure that a certain shape must be the best, and he was just making his bow more in line with that shape. Regardless of the material, the final semi-finished product is close to that arc.

Could it be that this producer in primitive society is a genius beyond the white tiger?Just by intuition, he knew that there was an optimal bow and arrow shape. Li Shizhen shook his head. This is really impossible, and the reason is very simple.

Even in the valley where the productivity is considered to be very good on this continent, even complex counting is not produced, let alone the results can be calculated through mechanical model calculations like in modern times, and the drawings can be made, and only need to be processed according to the drawings.

What's more, the development of weapons or production tools, in the primitive era, was accidental. People explored disorderly and found a better direction, so they improved in this direction.

So, the maker, perhaps seeing something finished, is imitating it?This principle is similar to the counterfeit phones in China in modern society. You don’t need to understand so many design principles, you only need to see the finished product, have seen the excellent performance of the finished product, and know that things developed according to this appearance are probably not bad.

But even so, with such a level of productivity, even if the maker failed to design a bow and arrow, Li Shizhen was already amazed by the entire workload based on his own exploration and these already considered complicated crafts.

If Li Shizhen's self-made spears and javelins are a piece of work, then what the producer has to complete is a huge project. An AK47, just look at the countless semi-finished products piled up in the corner.

Li Shizhen's eyes wandered around. Without it, this studio is so familiar and nostalgic to him. For so long, he has also completed simple and rough works in such a place.

Suddenly, something on the wall attracted his full attention. Li Shizhen, who was very familiar with the shapes of these semi-finished bows, judged at a glance that this was the genuine product, the real AK47 that had been imitated!

He almost couldn't help stepping forward to take it off, it seemed to be an old bow with many scratches mottled with vicissitudes of life, even the bowstring seemed to break under some desperate situation, but It seems that it does not damage the momentum of its ancient sharp weapon, but adds a little pathos and generosity that a famous soldier should have.This ancient sharp weapon does not let its owner give up its love for it because of the passage of time. The repeated rubbing and even regular maintenance have left the bow with a round and dull luster.

As a half-manufacturer, Li Shizhen was deeply attracted by the smooth lines and sophisticated processing technology of this one-meter-long bow. After so much exploration by himself, he knew that it was not easy to manufacture under such primitive conditions.

As a weapon user, the moment he holds this bow, he can't help but feel a kind of enthusiasm. He has a hunch that if he has a complete bow like this in his hand, his lethal coverage will be far away. Far beyond the 50 meters of the javelin, or even hundreds of meters, and the number of arrows carried can be much more than that of the javelin.This almost means that he can hold the lives of all creatures within hundreds of meters in his hands!

Li Shizhen's heart was beating a little fast, and he stroked the bow slowly. It's not that he hadn't thought about making such a long-range weapon, but he had no chance to see such a thing in modern times. Now a living, powerful weapon The sample of it was right in front of him, if it wasn't for its powerful power, and it had experienced life and death together, why would its owner cherish it so much!

Huh?

After rubbing it repeatedly, Li Shizhen seemed to have touched an uneven place, which didn't look like a natural scratch. He turned it over and saw that there seemed to be a mark engraved on the inner side of the lower edge of the bow. With the sunlight outside, Li Shizhen took a closer look, and it was clearly the word "日" with two ends at the beginning!

Li Shixuan's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and for no reason, he thought of those sharp whistling sounds by the river.

Before he recovered from his careful thinking, the bow in his hand was snatched away by a strong force. When Li Shizhen raised his head, the fierce and terrifying face that was so close at hand almost made his heart burst from his mouth in horror. jump out!

There was not a whole piece of skin on that face, it seemed that it was completely crushed and put together again. It looked like it was formed after extremely severe burns, but there was still a knife on this uneven face. The deep scratches started from the right temple, pierced the eyes, cut off the bridge of the nose, and barely stopped until the center of the left cheek, as if a baked pancake was cut into pieces again.

Coupled with the owner's tall stature, disheveled gray hair, ferocious look, and snorting, at first glance, it makes people stand upside down and terrified.

But Li Shizhen quickly realized that this should be the owner of the bow. It turned out that he was wrong, entering other people's houses without authorization, and touching other people's things.

He just wanted to apologize in unprofessional language, but the owner of the house didn't seem to want to see him again, so he pushed Li Shizhen hard and said something viciously.

Li Shizhen staggered, touched the wound, and almost fell down.

But the only remaining one eye of the owner of the house was glowing fiercely, like a fierce beast that chooses to devour people. Li Shizhen's liver trembled when he saw it. Instead of helping Li Shizhen, he took a step forward Stepping forward, he pushed Li Shizhen harder.

While Li Shizhen was pushed out of the room, he could only hear loud roars like "you" and "get out", which made his eardrum ache. It is estimated that the owner of the house was constantly cursing him.

Li Shizhen, who was pushed to the outside of the house, was so desperate that his left rib rushed down. The pain made him sweat profusely, and he didn't get up for a long time.

When he sat up slowly, the animal skin curtain had already been put down, and there was a tingling pain in his hand, as if when the bow was taken away vigorously just now, his hand was slightly scratched a few times by the edge of the bow.

Li Shizhen smiled wryly. Although he was a little annoyed at the owner's rude and arrogant attitude, it seemed that it was not entirely the owner's fault. After all, in modern times, what Li Shizhen did just now was wrong. Seeing the highly skilled weapons, I couldn't control myself for a while.

Yang Apa didn't seem to see Li Shizhen, so he came out to look for him in case he couldn't find him, and happened to see Li Shizhen sitting on the ground, and was surprised, and stepped forward to help Li Shizhen.

After Li Shixuan thanked him, Yang Apa seemed to see him sitting outside this room, and also guessed what happened just now, so he explained: "Mu Apa%&#... oh..."

It seems that there is also something unspeakable in it. Li Shizhen didn't fully understand it, but he nodded in understanding. It was his fault first, and who can have anything he doesn't want to say, let alone in such a valley.

However, thinking of the word "日", Li Shizhen felt a little uneasy. He didn't know whether Baihu knew about this Muapa. It seemed that he had to wait for him to come back before discussing it. Just an outsider.

Looking at the tall wooden house with a small tree at the door on the other side of this row of stone houses, Li Shizhen shook his head and smiled wryly. It seemed that he was really unlucky. Obviously this wooden house was close to the stone cave, but he somehow got there head.

Thinking of the experience just now, Li Shizhen is still somewhat unhappy. Even though he has seen life and death killings in this cruel and bloody continent, when it comes to getting along with people, especially in this small valley with a harmonious atmosphere Li Shizhen really rarely encountered such a rude and indifferent attitude.

Li Shizhen secretly reflected, did the warm-hearted and kind people here make him overly optimistic about the environment and forget that he is an outsider?No matter where, conflicts and frictions between people always exist, either because of this or that, Li Shizhen secretly sighed.

However, the furnishings in Yang Apa's room quickly made Li Shizhen forget the unhappiness just now. Apart from several shelves of herbs, strange bones and internal organs, what attracted Li Shizhen's attention the most was the one at the end of the big wooden house. The row of ropes is the kind of ordinary rope made of vines, at least hundreds of them, hanging on the wall densely and neatly.

There are all kinds of knots, large and small, on those ropes. Li Shizhen has heard of knots, but this is the first time he has seen them.These ropes are different from old to new, and the old ones can even see the frizzy and cracked marks on them, while the new ones seem to have just been made.

Perhaps the experience just now had an impact. At least Li Shizhen had a faint shadow on the people in the valley. He wisely didn't ask directly. After all, he had only met Yang Apa a few times, not so familiar.

After drinking the medicine, Yang Apa also prescribed a new ointment for him, and even indicated that he could apply it directly on the small wound on his hand.

Li Shizhen nodded gratefully.

It seems that Yang Apa noticed Li Shizhen's curious eyes on the rope just now. He pointed to the rope and asked Li Shizhen to come over early tomorrow and tell him the story of the rope?

Seeing such an open and honest old man, Li Shizhen suddenly felt a little guilty. He shouldn't affect his attitude towards others just because he was accused by others. He nodded fiercely and decided to tell Shi Amu after going back. Not playing with the little friends, he has to come here early.

Li Shizhen, who returned to the stone house, changed the ointment and applied the medicine. It happened that the little tiger came over again. It seemed that they were a little late today?

The little tigers and wolves were very excited, yelling "Aww".

Li Shizhen was a little confused, but Ying Amu, who came in behind, resolved the confusion: "@#￥ is back."

came back?People who go out?That's Baihu and the others!

Li Shizhen suddenly felt a little anxious. He stayed alone in a strange place for so long. After being frightened, Li Shizhen felt that he was really eager to see that familiar face.

At the mouth of the valley in the south, where Li Shizhen and Baihu came back last time, many people gathered, almost all the people who had met Li Shizhen came, and even Yang Apa waited happily among the crowd, but Li Shizuo did not see the Muapa.

The old people and children gathered there happily and lively. For some reason, Li Shizhen thought of the scene that his relatives looked forward to when returning home during the Chinese New Year. It seemed that his eagerness to reunite with relatives was the same no matter the earth or here.

Looking down the snow peak from a distance, a dozen figures were slowly moving upwards dragging something heavy. Li Shizhen took a closer look, and they obviously harvested not only baby elephants, but also some other prey. Think about it. Also, they've been away long enough.

Among the crowd, the guy with black stripes on a white background was the tallest and tallest, with the most vigorous gait. Even if he was carrying heavy loads on the snow, his demeanor would not be affected at all, let alone eye-catching.

Li Shizhen watched from a distance, as if he was also infected by the surrounding atmosphere, he couldn't help imitating the old people around him, facing down and facing his hands, and shouted: "Bai!"

From a distance, he saw the tiger looking up at him, and he seemed to be able to see that tiger's face with a silly grin that didn't match. Under the dazzling sunlight, Li Shizhen couldn't help but burst into a warm smile on his face. It seemed that all uneasiness and unhappiness had dissipated.
