Mission 63
Editor: Henyee Translations
They ventured into the bamboo forest outside to harvest suitable bamboo and proceeded to cut them to the required lengths as per Gu Chaoyan's instructions.
Once the three young men had completed their tasks, Gu Chaoyan scoured the woods for branches suitable for crafting bows and arrows. Her goal was to fashion simple yet effective weapons, but she needed branches with the necessary flexibility.
To her knowledge, there were no trees in the vicinity suitable for bow-making. After an extended search, she finally stumbled upon a grove of young bamboo shoots. These young bamboo stalks were much more suitable for crafting bows than tree branches, which thrilled Gu Chaoyan.
When it came to the bowstring, she had already identified a suitable source, rattan, which she had prepared the previous day.
Once the bows were complete, it was time to fashion arrows.
