The next day.
Bi Huo woke up early.
While washing her face, she turned on the livestream.
"Good morning, everyone.”
"Good morning, Sea God."
"Speaking of which, why is Poseidon's live broadcast so early today?”
Bi Huo pointed the drone at the sea and said,
"The sunrise on the sea today is very beautiful. Everyone, take a look at the sunrise first. I'll be right there."”
Then, he disappeared.
“？？？”
"What's going on? Why did the Sea God slip away?"
"sunrise Substitute Sowing Stone Hammer."
"The sunrise is really beautiful.”
"I also want to say that this is the first time I've seen such a beautiful sunrise.”
While everyone was watching the sunrise, Bi Huo washed his face and ate some breakfast.
Then, it appeared in the video again.
"
I'm sorry to have kept everyone waiting."”
"Whoa! Sea God, your sudden appearance scared me.”
"Seagod, you look full of vitality today. Did something good happen?”
Bi Huo nodded and said,
"This audience member, you're right. I really have something to tell everyone today."”
"What is it?"
"Sea God, are you looking for a husband?”
"Marriage? I'll sign up."
"I want to sign up!"
"The one in front, draw your sword."
"I'm a man. I won't sign up, but I can help Poseidon choose (smirk).”
Bi Huo came to the bamboo house and picked up the bamboo from yesterday.
"Before we talk about this, I want to use bamboo to make a traditional weapon, a bamboo bow.”
"Bamboo bow?" The audience asked curiously
. Sea God, are you going up the mountain to hunt?”
"I understand now. Just now, you asked us to look at the sun first, and you said you wanted to make a bamboo bow. Could it be that…you want to shoot the sun?”
"F * cking Sun Shooting, no one else has such an imagination.”
"Speaking of bows, I used to play with composite bows for a while. It's too difficult to master this thing. It's only been two or three days, and my arm is already swollen.”
"Haha, then you should come to our plains to take a look. Many of us here know how to use bows.”
Boss Lang: "Damn, Sea God, if you wanted to play with a bow, you should have said so earlier. Two years ago, I spent 20,000 to 30,000 yuan on a composite bow. I lost interest after playing with it twice. I'll send it to you another day. It doesn't have much money anyway."”
Xu Meili: "Now that Boss Lang mentioned it, I also remembered that my dad had a bow in his collection. It's called a recurve bow or something. I don't know much about it either. My dad said that the bow costs at least 40,000 to 50,000 yuan. Sea God, if you need it, I can send it to you."”
When the other audience members heard this, they calmed down.
"Listen, is this what humans say?”
"My monthly salary is 4,000 yuan. I don't even dare to speak.”
"This live broadcast room is really getting more and more generous.”
Bi Huo smiled and said,"Thank you, both of you. I appreciate your kindness. However, the theme of my live broadcast today is related to tradition, so I still want to make a traditional bamboo bow myself."”
After Bi Huo finished speaking, he picked up the bamboo and said to the audience,
"Traditional bows are mainly made of wood, ox horns, beef tendon bamboo, and other materials. What I'm going to make today is a bamboo bow. Look, this is an old yellow bamboo. It's a good material for making bamboo bows.”
As he spoke, Bi Huo used his knife to split the bamboo and shovel the bamboo joints clean.
Then, he knocked on it with his hand and chose a section. He used a knife to cut it into a bamboo board that was more than two meters long and three to four centimeters wide.
After that, Bi Huo started a fire near the beach.
At this moment, the entire process of making the bamboo bow appeared in his mind.
"Next, what I have to do is to shape the bamboo board. When the bamboo is roasted over the fire, it will become soft and bent. We can easily bend it into the shape of a bow, but if you want to do it, you have to pay attention to control it.”
After Bi Huo finished speaking, he placed the bamboo board on the fire.
Then, he adjusted the distance between them while bending the bamboo board into the shape of a recurve bow.
In a short while, the bamboo piece had already turned into the shape of a recurve bow.
There were fewer bullet comments in the live broadcast room because many viewers had never seen the production of a bamboo bow before. They were all watching very seriously.
They saw Bi Huo bending the bamboo board into a recurve bow and felt it was very magical.
Bi Huo cooled the bow for a while.
Then, he took out a wooden brush and polished the corners of the bow. Then, he used sandpaper to polish it again.
This way, it wouldn't hurt his hand.
Finally, Bi Huo took out Uncle Yang San's woodworking tools.
He cut the ends of the bamboo piece thin and made grooves for the bowstring at both ends.
The entire process took Bi Huo only an hour.
It didn't seem difficult, but in fact, every step required a high level of proficiency and control.
Bi Huo raised the bow in front of the camera.
"Alright, the bow is ready. We just need to tie the bowstring and this bow can be used. However, I don't have the materials to make the bowstring now. I'll go to the city to buy it later.”
The audience looked at the bamboo bow in Bi Huo's hand and praised endlessly.
"Even though it's a bamboo bow, I feel that the Sea God's bow is perfect in both proportion and curvature.”
"This kind of traditional craft is already on the verge of being lost, yet the Sea God still has such a good grasp of it.”
"Sea God, how far can your bow shoot?”
Bi Huo bent the bow with both hands and felt the elasticity.
"I feel that the range of this bow is at least 200 meters."”
"D * mn, it's too powerful. I just searched for a modern recurve bow online, and its range is only about 220 meters.”
"If the Sea God's craftsmanship were to be placed in the ancient times of war, he would definitely be a talent.”
"Sigh, these things are good, but no one has passed them on. I think in a few years, no one will know how to make them.”
Bi Huo put down the bow in his hand and said seriously,
"This audience member is right. We can't lose tradition. This is what I want to talk to everyone about today."”
Bi Huo paused and continued,
"On Bamboo Island, there is a tradition that has been passed down for a hundred years. Every August Festival, we will hold a fish shooting competition. It is to shoot the fish in the sea with a bow that we make ourselves. The
requirement is that only unmarried young men and women participate. Whoever shoots more fish will have good luck in the coming year.
I made this bow for the fish shooting event the day after tomorrow, but..."
Bi Huo said with a lonely expression."It's just that in recent years, all the young people have gone out to work. There are only eight or nine unmarried young people on the island. Thinking back to the lively scene of hundreds of people shooting fish, I feel a little sad now. So I want to ask my fans in the live broadcast room if anyone is willing to come to Bamboo Island and participate in our fishing event the day after tomorrow.”
After Bi Huo finished speaking, he lowered his head.
In fact, he did not have too much hope. He thought that as long as there were ten or twenty people participating, he would be satisfied.
After all, everyone went to school and worked, and many of them were far away. Who would come to participate in a traditional activity?
He slowly raised his head and looked at the bullet comments.
He was shocked by what he saw!
The bullet comments suddenly exploded, blocking the entire screen.
"I want to go, I want to go! It sounds fun!"
"Sea God, why didn't you tell me earlier that there was such a fun event?”
"Hmph, I've trained in archery before. Don't even think about winning against me. I want to be lucky next year!”
"Singles, stop diving. Come out and gather!”
"I can promote traditional culture and see the Sea God. I don't care. I want to go even if I have to take a leave!”
"I have to participate in this kind of thing. I feel that it is very meaningful.”
"Let me ask, is there anyone from the same place as me? Let's form a team and go together!"
"Brothers, let's not talk about anything else. I'm going to book the tickets first!”
Bi Huo was very touched when he saw the bullet comments on the screen.
