Survival Master of Wilderness Live

Chapter 194 Sharpened Arrow Bamboo
Under the scorching sun, Chen Hu was walking on the endless African prairie. After discovering two wonderful creatures, the flying dragon lizard and the big-eared fox, the tourists in the live broadcast room were full of expectations for this journey of exploring the East. .

At this moment, the exploration progress in the east is close to 20 kilometers, and the remaining [-] kilometers can basically be completed in two or three hours.

Not long after, Chen Hu found a pond with a diameter of more than seventy to eighty meters on the horizon. Sure enough, there was a water source in this direction. Of course, there were also many wild animals living around the pond, except for those herbivorous hoofed animals. In addition to animals, there is also a group of baboons.

As Chen Hu got closer, he found that the strongest baboon in the group, that is, the leader, looked a little familiar, especially when he saw the domineering mane of the baboon, which looked a little bald, and he immediately understood.

Apparently these baboons were the group that Chen Hu drove away last time. They didn't expect them to settle down in the east, but Chen Hu's appearance alarmed those baboons. Most primates have very strong memory. Seven or eight days later, but I still remember him.

However, the sentinel baboons roared, and all the baboons in the group exploded when they saw Chen Hu, and the leader baboons even roared angrily.

"Fuck! Lord Tiger met an old enemy!"

"Obviously, these damn baboons are up to something!"

"Don't be cowardly, the anchor! This time, beat them!"

The male tourists in the live broadcast room were all excited, but Chen Hu shook his head. There was no need for him to kill them all. The reason why there was a fight last time was that there was nothing he could do about it.

Seeing those baboons roaring, but not approaching, Chen Hu didn't intend to trouble them, so he bypassed the location of the pond and continued to head east.

The tourists in the live broadcast room were a little disappointed when they saw this. Obviously, these violent guys really wanted to watch the scene of Chen Hu fighting the baboons again.

After more than half an hour, Chen Hu explored about five kilometers, and found a wide river, which was the Limbo-Po River flowing from west to east. Chen Hu was not surprised to see this river again, at least Prove he's not going in the wrong direction.

Afterwards, Chen Hu came to the river and took a look, only to see that the river water was still dim and fast-flowing, with almost no change, but under the nourishment of the river water, the animals and plants in the east became more and more luxuriant.

Chen Hu continued to move forward, and it didn't take long before he walked into a bush. Many small birds flew up the branches from time to time, making chirping sounds. The tourists in the live broadcast room opened their eyes wide and began to look for wild animals.

However, before the animals were discovered, Chen Hu suddenly stopped and looked at the dense pile of plants in front of him. What kind of plants are they?

But, seven or eight meters away, there is a pile of finger-thin bamboos growing. The bamboo stems are brown, and the bamboo leaves are like withered yellow. The most peculiar thing is that the bamboo leaves are all needle-shaped!

Yes, you are not mistaken!Those bamboo leaves that look like withered are all rolled into needles, like sharp teeth, but almost all the bamboos are not tall, basically only about two or three meters high.

When the tourists in the live broadcast room saw this, someone immediately said in surprise:
"This is...bamboo? I'll go! There's still bamboo in Africa?"

"It's rare and strange upstairs, not to mention bamboo, even eels, all in Africa, so I ask you if you believe it or not?"

"Although what the second floor said is correct, most of the eels in Africa are black. In order to adapt to the local environment, they are already of different species."

"Master Tiger, the appearance of these bamboos looks too strange. What kind of species are they?"

……

Amidst the barrage, Chen Hu's eyes showed surprise, and then he introduced:

"This is the African 'Sharp Arrow Bamboo'. This kind of bamboo is also found in a few areas of China, but it is already a different species, because Africa is often dry and rainless, and the sharp arrow bamboo has to roll up its leaves, which look like needles. "

"Like acacia trees and other tree species, there are also needle-shaped branches and leaves in arid areas. This is a change that plants have undergone to adapt to the environment. If there is abundant rainfall and suitable humidity, the sharp arrow bamboo naturally does not need to restrain itself. Not to mention curling up the leaves to survive."

After Chen Hu finished speaking, he came to the bamboo forest, and very carefully grabbed an arrow bamboo as slender as a little finger, and then bent it hard, but only slightly bent it.

Seeing this, Chen Hu took a deep breath, then increased his strength suddenly, folded several times in succession, and finally made a loud bang!
Snapped!
The arrow bamboo with the thin little finger was broken immediately. After that, Chen Hu held the bamboo and put it in front of his eyes. He saw that the arrow bamboo was gray on the outside, but the inside of the bamboo stem was green, and it was still solid!

"Sure enough!"

A smile appeared on the corner of Chen Hu's mouth, and he said:

"As you can see, the interior of this kind of bamboo is solid, hard, extremely tough, and strong in corrosion resistance. The bows and arrows often used by many African indigenous tribes in conflicts are made of this solid arrow bamboo."

As soon as this remark came out, the tourists in the live broadcast room were excited!
"What are you waiting for? My Lord Tiger, hurry up and make bows and arrows!"

"Haha, once you have a bow and arrow, will hunting be difficult in the future?"

"Congratulations to the host, another weapon material has been discovered!"

……

hunting?Maybe... Chen Hu smiled, and then began to choose suitable materials for bows and arrows. Arrow branches are easy to find. Basically, arrow bamboo that is as thick as the little finger can be made into arrow branches.

But you must choose the thickest one for the bow body. Chen Hu searched in this small bamboo forest, and finally found a two-finger thick arrow bamboo. Then he grabbed the bamboo stem with both hands and tried his best to break it. .

As a result, the bamboo just bent, but Chen Hu's face turned red, and then he had to let go, and the arrow bamboo bounced back immediately.

Swish!
The air made a sound, and one could imagine how strong its toughness was. Chen Hu had no choice but to take out the obsidian dagger, choose a part, and start sawing.

Although the obsidian dagger is sharp enough, even sharper than most cold weapons, its texture is a bit brittle, and it is not suitable for cutting too hard substances.

Chen Hu could only keep drawing circles on the bamboo stem while protecting the blade. After ten minutes, the blade had penetrated halfway, and then he folded it again forcefully.

It took almost a lot of effort, and after a crisp cracking sound, Chen Hu broke it, only to be so tired that beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

"Take a break first, take a few breaths before talking."

Chen Hu was panting heavily, while Hubi and Pingtou sister were running around, fighting with each other, as long as they didn't do anything serious, they would let them go.

After resting for a while, Chen Hu cleaned up the branches on the bamboo trunk, and then began to collect bamboo suitable for making arrow branches. Basically, he chose the thickness of his little finger and broke it off abruptly.

About an hour later, the arrow branch materials of one two fingers thick and 1.5 meters long, and thirty little fingers thick and one meter long, the bamboo nodes of this kind of bamboo are almost degenerated, and each node has only a faint trace. Once it is made into a bow and arrow , there will never be any air resistance.

When close to these two materials, bows and arrows cannot be made yet. Bow strings and feathers are all critical steps, but these things can only be discussed after returning to the camp.

Chen Hu wove a hemp rope out of wild grass, tied up all the bamboos, put them behind his back, then called Hubi and Miss Pingtou who were running wild on the ground, and one person and two badgers continued to move towards the east.
