    Xiao Yi shook his head, but didn't think much about it. How to get some meat home to replenish his sister's health was Xiao Yi's biggest concern.  Suddenly, Xiao Yi had an idea and remembered that there seemed to be a bow in his mother's room.  Wouldn't it be better if we went to the back mountain to hunt a few rabbits and come back?  Thinking of this, Xiao Yi suddenly became interested and hurried home.  As soon as Xiao Yi left, two men in Tsing Yi came out of the darkness.  One of them is the Master Yin Xiang of Qingmu Hall. If Xiao Yi sees the person next to him, he will definitely be shocked. He is the merchant who bought the jade pendant.  "According to Master Yin Xiang's instructions, my subordinates have returned the jade pendant to its original owner." "The child seems to have no suspicion! Zhao Xu, you did a good job!" Zhao Xu immediately said happily: "Thank you Master Yin Xiang!" "It's just that the child has a total of  You didn't leave any money for him, what a fly in the ointment!" Zhao Xu suddenly said in panic: "This subordinate should be damned if he doesn't know!" "That's all!" Master Yin Xiang waved his hand.  Said: "We have completed the task, and others will take care of the rest. I still have things to deal with, and I need to go out for a few days. If Master Zuo has something to do, you must do your best."  When it was his turn for the good job, Zhao Xu was naturally very happy and immediately accepted the order.  There was just one thing he didn't understand, so he asked: "Qingmu Hall has always been well maintained by the incense master. Usually the leader just sends someone over to take a look. Why did he bother Mr. Zuo to come and inspect it in person this time?  "Yin Xiangzhu shook his head and said, "I don't know much about this matter. It seems that Master Zuo is here for the Yuhua Xiaoxie pair." Zhao Xu asked doubtfully, "Can I bother Master Zuo to come in person?"  What's the big deal between the two siblings?" Master Yin Xiang suddenly said in displeasure: "Why is it your turn to interrupt and ask questions about things above?" Zhao Xu quickly blamed himself: "Master Xiang, please calm down.  "My subordinates are talking too much!" Xiao Yi ran all the way back to Yuhua Xiaoxie and saw that his sister was still sleeping, so he went straight to his mother's room.  Stroking the objects in the room, Xiao Yi seemed to be able to imagine his mother's every move during her lifetime.  There is a big bow hanging on the wall, and my sister has practiced it on weekdays.  It is said that my mother made it for my father and it took five years to complete.  The production of ancient bows was complicated, and a military bow used by ordinary archers took a year and a half to make.  The bows used by generals are more sophisticated, and it takes more than two years to make the bows used by ordinary generals.  The bow made by Zhang Yuhua for Xiao Mohe is made of the hardest rosewood and repeatedly quenched with precious materials such as bison horn, tiger tendon and deer glue. It is not only expensive to make, but also condenses the mother's love for her father.  truth.  Xiao Yi moved the stool and carefully took off the bow and the quiver next to it.  When he came to the yard, Xiao Yi planned to practice his archery skills first in the place where his sister usually practiced archery.  For Xiao Yi, the bow is a bit heavy, but it can be held.  Gong stands taller than Xiao Yi, but it's not a big problem.  What makes Xiao Yi miserable is that the bow requires three dans of force to draw, and ten dans of force to fully draw.  Xiao Yi tried several times, but couldn't pull it away even with all his strength.  What a meow!  Xiao Yi suddenly became competitive.  I saw him sitting on the ground, with his feet on the bow and his hands pulling the string. He was so exhausted that he pulled it halfway and shot a sharp arrow out.  ¡° Then Xiao Yi got up to look at the target, but he didn¡¯t know where the arrow went.  Damn it!  Xiao Yi was immediately confused.  After poking the bow on the ground, Xiao Yi immediately sighed and sat aside, wondering how to solve the problem of his lack of strength.  Although Xiao Yi is confident that he will be able to shoot a strong bow like his father in the future, he can't do it now.  Glancing at his sister's room, Xiao Yi couldn't help but blame himself for being useless, thinking of the hard work his sister had put in for him. He couldn't even give his sister a meal.  Xiao Yi would not give up easily. Soon he stood up again, turning left and right around the bow. Thinking of the advanced science and technology used by later generations in bows and arrows, his eyes lit up.  Picking up the bow again, Xiao Yi smiled. He only needed to install a pair of pulleys on it and wind the bow string again to save more than half of the strength. In that case, Xiao Yi could draw the bow.  As soon as he said it, Xiao Yi went to the warehouse to find the tools he needed.  I went to the back mountain to look for an oak tree as thick as a bowl, and cut off two discs of wood as thick as a palm.  Then use a carving knife to cut each piece of disc wood.Two pulleys, one large and one small, with concentric shafts with radii different by four times are formed, and a groove is carved on the circumference of the pulleys and flows out of the winding mouth at the same time.  After completing the two sets of pulleys, a new bow string four times the length of the original bow string is needed.  Fortunately, Zhang Yuhua left a long spare string when making this bow, so Xiao Yi could just measure the required strings.  The most difficult part was to drill holes in the bow corners and stem to install the pulleys, because the bow was made by Zhang Yuhua over five years of repeated quenching, and its hardness was comparable to steel. Xiao Yi spent a whole day drilling it.  through.  During this period, Xiao Yi had to take care of his sister, make medicine and cook, as if he was a master of a family.  Adding a modern mechanical pulley set to the ancient strong bow, the sense of accomplishment of approaching success step by step during the production made Xiao Yi extremely excited. He stayed up all night but was still very energetic.  The next morning, the bow had been modified by Xiao Yi with painstaking efforts. Although the modified new bow looked extremely ugly, even Xiao Yi himself felt a little embarrassed.  But after the new bow was equipped with two pairs of pulleys with labor-saving winding, Xiao Yi could pull it open directly by hand.  Although the bow cannot be fully drawn, it can cause fatal damage to animals within fifty steps.  The most important thing is that with the pulley group, Xiao Yi can maintain the bow-drawing posture for a long time, which is crucial for accurate aiming.  With an ordinary bow without a pulley, even a sharpshooter with amazing arm strength cannot maintain the bowing state for a long time.  In order to improve the shooting accuracy, Xiao Yi also ordered a scribe on the bow stem to place the arrow, so that the arrow can maintain linear acceleration when it is launched and prevent the bow string from hitting the wrist.  At the same time, Xiao Yi fixed a small nail on the bow stem in the direction of the arrow as a front sight, and wrapped shrapnel on the bow string where the arrow was pinched. This formed a three-point and one-line precise shooting structure, which greatly improved the hit accuracy.  After the modernized modified bow was completed, Xiao Yi couldn¡¯t wait to run to the shooting range to test-shoot.  Fifty steps away, Xiao Yi aimed at the target, bent his bow and released the arrow, only to hear the sound of whizzing through the air, six or seven of the ten arrows hit the target.  This accuracy may not be enough for hunting rabbits, but it is more than enough for hunting larger targets such as wild deer, wild horses, etc.  With a pot full of arrows, Xiao Yi couldn¡¯t wait to go to the back mountain to look for the delicacies that were about to be cooked.  However, hunting is also a science, and it is not an easy task.  At first, Xiao Yi chased animals all over the mountains and fields and shot at them, but he couldn't hit any of them.  ¡° Then Xiao Yi changed his tactics and secretly hid in the bushes, disguised himself, and waited for the delicious food to be delivered to his door.  It wasn¡¯t until it was getting dark that a hare wandered towards Xiao Yi¡¯s ambush.  After finally catching the target, Xiao Yi took aim with his bow very carefully, fearing that he would miss the target and lose another chance.  Forty steps away, no shooting.  Even if he is thirty steps away, he will not shoot.  ??Twenty steps away and still not shooting. ??????????????????????? Well, Xiao Yi only let go of the arrow when he saw the silly rabbit jumping to less than ten steps away from Xiao Yi.  If someone else had used an ordinary bow, they would have been exhausted and vomited blood while maintaining the bow aiming posture for half a stick of incense.  Xiao Yi's bow was able to maintain the bow's aiming posture for a long time, so when the arrow was shot, the hare was hit by the arrow and died after two jumps.  Xiao Yi rushed over and picked up the hare by its ears.  The hare is fat and big, but it can have a good meal.  "Hahaha!" Xiao Yi held his bow and looked up to the sky, laughing wildly. This was his first trophy, and the sense of accomplishment inevitably made him ecstatic.  Later that night, Xiao Yi stewed vegetable and rabbit soup for his sister. ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
