Chapter 5 Exploring the Farm
I swung the woodcutting axe for a while before I took out the crossbow arrow embedded in the trunk. It was awful, and the arrow broke and broke.
So Tang Yizhou had to cut and re-weld, and all this was already 1:00 noon. The sun was sunny and the four grids of electricity were restored. Welding, cutting and labor consumed eight grids of electricity, so his current electricity was only three and a half grids.
It's only a little short of entering a weak state.
Secretly alert, Tang Yizhou had to cancel the plan to explore the house in the distance today, lay honestly on the ground and bask in the sun, and continued to think about optimizing the crossbow. Now, accuracy is the most important problem he needs to solve. In addition, there is another very important problem that the number of crossbow arrows is too small, and he must cut another one.
Fortunately, there was only one steel bar left before, and only one was it.
Next, Tang Yizhou was basking in the sun while gnawing on the green corn. For some reason, his teeth were very good now. He ate for two hours and ate about a hundred green corn, but he didn't feel anything.
However, the power is continuing to recover.
At 6:30 in the evening, he obtained five and a half units of electricity by basking in the sun, and two and a lot of energy by gnawing corn.
Now he is very sure that almost 35 to 40 green corn can recover half the power, and the cost-effectiveness is still good.
What's more troublesome is to find respect...
When the sunlight could not shine near the cornfield, Tang Yizhou's power had barely returned to eleven levels. Now he finally felt the inefficiency of this charging speed. It was often released in just over ten minutes after working hard all day.
This made him particularly worried. It is still summer and the sunshine is the longest. If it is winter, the sunshine is shorter and the temperature drops again. What should I do then?
After sighing, Tang Yizhou turned his thoughts to the shooting test, which is still his most urgent and important matter at the moment.
Use the sitting-style winding method, sit down first, pull the bowstring apart, and then hang a crossbow arrow. This process takes ten seconds. If you calculate and aim and then fire, it will take about twenty seconds.
This speed is very touching, but there is no way. This is the price that a layman must bear, so he must study hard and practice hard.
At this time, Tang Yizhou did not offer insurance, so he carried the crossbow with a total weight of about 50 kilograms to train and aim, trying to unite himself with the crossbowman and crossbow!
After five minutes of holding it, until his arms were a little numb and his power dropped halfway, Tang Yizhou felt pretty good.
Next, he put down the crossbow, moved his arms, and as the sky was still bright, he sneaked into the woods, changed to another tree, and fired live ammunition fifteen meters away.
This is a must-do. The so-called sharpshooter is fed from bullets. If he doesn’t do live-fire shooting a few times, how can he be an archer?
After a few minutes of brewing, Tang Yizhou asked himself to enter a quiet state as much as possible, stabilized his breathing and heartbeat, and focused his attention completely between the crossbow's Wangshan and the target... The conditions were limited, so he could only do this.
When everything was ready, he suddenly pulled the mechanical bullet, and the crossbow arrow disappeared in an instant, but Tang Yizhou could still vaguely feel that the live-fire shooting seemed slightly better than in the morning.
When I walked up to see, I immediately felt very relieved.
If he ejaculated a ring in the morning, then it was the second ring now. This great progress can surprise all the past and present, both in China and abroad.
It's just that it's too troublesome to take out the crossbow arrow.
In the morning, he cut with an axe and deliberately lightened his strength, but now it was getting dark and the surroundings became quieter. He had to use his cutting skills. Fortunately, there was no big problem. He only consumed half of the power in front and back, so he took out the crossbow arrow.
The even rarer arrow was not damaged, which gave him the basis to continue shooting live.
The next time was still fifteen meters away. Tang Yizhou recalled the angle and ballistics of the arrow just now, and re-energized and corrected. This time he was particularly confident.
A few minutes later, at the moment when the last ray of setting sun fell into the mountains, he pulled his mind again, and with a "swoosh", it hit the trunk, at least the fifth ring!
Tang Yizhou laughed silently and was very excited. He finally found a little success.
——
Nothing happened overnight.
Perhaps because he was a little accustomed to the wild environment, Tang Yizhou slept sweetly. As soon as he woke up at 7:00 the next morning, he ate corn while basking in the sun. No matter what, he was going to explore the house.
It is still the same rule. First use a telescope to investigate, then cut and polish the second crossbow while basking in the sun. This matter consumed his three-meter power.
From seven o'clock to twelve o'clock, he obtained a total of five grids of power. After deducting one grid consumed from the test in the evening yesterday, three grids consumed this morning, and at this moment he still had twelve grids of power left.
As for gnawing corn, it can only offset the amount of electricity consumed by the body in daily life.
At twelve forty, after using a telescope to investigate for four or half an hour, Tang Yizhou decided to set out to explore.
He put all his supplies on a trolley and hid them in the cornfield, so he only brought a telescope, a backpack, the crossbow, two crossbow arrows, and a logging axe to go on the road.
Although he didn't need to cover his footprints this time, he still used habitually to walk where it was not easy to leave traces. He also used some branches and weeds to disguise his backpack, head, and crossbow.
The route of travel is to be as close as possible to the cornfield, try not to exercise vigorously, and try to take light steps. If he really cannot avoid walking away from the open area, he would rather lie in the grass and spread his serpentine position...
Anyway, whether it is said that he is cautious or persecuted, details must be missing.
Because he really noticed in the past two days that the surroundings were too quiet and even the mechanical ape did not appear again. This is enough to show that as long as there is no violent sound or greater light and shadow stimulation, this area is relatively safe.
Stop, stop, stop, and occasionally serpentine, and occasionally circle around. Tang Yizhou did not rush directly to the house hidden under the woods. He first investigated the environment around the house. After confirming that there was no danger, he approached silently from the safest direction.
Especially at the last three hundred meters, he simply lay on the ground and moved forward for more than ten meters in a minute - he could bask in the sun anyway, so he was not in a hurry.
It was not until three o'clock in the afternoon that Tang Yizhou saw the whole picture of the house. It was actually a farm. The so-called forest was a fruit forest. The trees were sparsely covered with green fruits, and they looked malnourished. It seemed that no one had taken care of them for a long time.
There are three houses in total.
One place was obviously the farmer's residence. It was a two-story building, made of wooden, with a garden and a garage in front, but the doors and windows were broken, and no one could be seen. From the telescope, you could only see a mess.
The second house is similar to a barn and is unexpectedly well preserved.
The third place is very large, with a semicircular roof, which seems to be a place to feed livestock. In theory, it is also a place to place some agricultural machinery. Unfortunately, Tang Yizhou did not see any agricultural machinery inside, which made him feel a bad feeling.
Because he thought of the mechanical ape who was interested in collecting steel.
