Chapter 235: The steady Divine Child
Han Cheng looked at the bow in Third Senior Brother's hand, which had a thick middle and slightly thinner ends with a slight curve, and he was pretty surprised.
According to his estimation, even with the fastest progress, it would still take until noon for Lame to finish making the bow.
Looking up at Third Senior Brother's eyes, filled with bloodshot veins, Han Cheng knew what was going on.
When someone is particularly fond of something and, within their abilities, it is possible they will burst out with great enthusiasm, just like Third Senior Brother did.
The bow was made well, even better than Han Cheng had expected.
To make such a bow under these conditions, it had to be said that Third Senior Brother had put in a lot of effort.
Han Cheng took the bow and carefully examined it for a while. Then, he nodded approvingly towards Third Senior Brother, indicating his approval. Third Senior Brother's tired and tense face immediately broke into a smile.
Afterward, Han Cheng taught him to carve grooves for the bowstring at both ends of the bow using a stone knife. Then, he brought appropriate thickness ropes and had the Third Senior Brother hold the bow while he strung the bow.
At this point, without any cattle, if there were cattle, using cow tendons to make the bowstring would result in a better bow.
Han Cheng thought to himself, chuckling. He was being a bit greedy.
Lame and several others who made bows and arrows were surprised to see the bow in Third Senior Brother's hand. Most of them hadn't even made half their bows, yet Third Senior Brother had already finished making his bow. The difference was indeed quite significant.
The third Senior Brother pulled the bowstring forcefully and then released it. The bow trembled slightly, emitting a buzzing sound, demonstrating the power of the bow.
His expression became very excited, unable to contain his desire to go outside and shoot a couple of arrows to test the power of this bow and arrow.
"Let's go try it out!"
Han Cheng also wanted to know how the wooden bow he had crudely made based on the images from his memory would perform.
The same was true for the eldest brother and the others. After taking the three feather arrows made yesterday, they went outside, covered in white snow.
Only the Second Senior Brother didn't pay much attention to the people who went out. He didn't think the newly made bow would be powerful.
When they went out to test the arrows, he even deliberately took a few stones, preparing to compare with the new bow again.
Han Cheng estimated a distance of about twenty-five meters, drew a horizontal line on the snowy ground with his foot, and then had Third Senior Brother stand here to shoot the arrow.
Twenty-five meters was the distance Third Senior Brother had used for arrow testing yesterday.
Third Senior Brother took a deep breath, nocked the arrow, aimed after drawing the bow, and released it with a snap.
"Bang!"
The door was suddenly pulled open, hitting the wall behind it and bouncing back. A figure flashed in from the doorway and rushed into the snow. It was Han Cheng, who had just been thinking about being stable.
Of course, Han Cheng couldn't remain calm because, just now, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind.
"Charcoal! Charcoal! Charcoalcompleted"
Han Cheng ran a short distance outside and saw Hei Wa running towards him. Before Heiwa reached him, he saw Han Cheng and shouted.
Han Cheng's tense heart suddenly relaxed, and his footsteps stopped involuntarily.
Charcoal!
It was charcoal!
He didn't know how to describe his feelings at that moment.
"How much was destroyed?"
Han Cheng suppressed his excitement and asked Heiwa, who had rushed to his side.
"Nnothingdestroyedallfine"
Hei Wa was panting heavily, out of breath, but the excitement on his face was hard to hide.
Nothing was destroyed?
Han Cheng's eyes widened instantly.
How is that possible?!
After learning from Heiwa that charcoal was indeed produced, he only thought that this time, a lot of charcoal was produced. As for the fact that no firewood was destroyed, he didn't dare to think about it in that direction.
Now, hearing Hei Wa say this, Han Cheng became unbelieving.
"Are you sure no firewood was destroyed?"
"Rereallynothingdestroyed, allcharcoal!"
Heiwa nodded vigorously.
