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 cto the bowstring, she had already identified a suitable source, rattan, which she had prepared the previous day.

Arrows were relatively easy to procure; all that was required was to select a straight piece of dry wood from the ground and fashion it into a pointed arrowhead. Bows and arrows may have been simple in design, but they were potent weapons.
With the right materials, the process was straightforward.
Gu Chaoyan produced a total of four sets – one for herself and three for the young men.
While she was crafting the bows and arrows, the three individuals continued to cut bamboo. Except for Gary, the other two harbored thoughts of uncertainty. “Where has the Tribe Chief disappeared to? Is she playing a trick on us?”
“I can’t help but feel it’s unreliable. Can it genuinely protect us from the elements?”
“Let’s focus on our work,” Gary replied, fully aware of the Tribe Chief’s intentions. She had gone to create bows and arrows, formidable weapons for their protection.
If they succeeded, it meant more than just shelter from the elements; it meant acquiring weapons as well!
Oliver and Warren refrained from further comment. Having committed to the task, they understood the importance of doing it well. As for the Tribe Chief’s whereabouts, it didn’t concern them.
However, onlookers couldn’t help but worry when they witnessed the dedication of the three young individuals. Over the years, hope for the Tribe Chief had dwindled. People’s faith had waned, and they hoped that the Tribe Chief wouldn’t deceive them once more.
Several individuals tried to persuade Oliver, “Oliver, don’t be swayed by Gary’s single-mindedness. Hasn’t the Tribe Chief caused us enough harm? This endeavor may be in vain. Why persist?”
“She may be our Tribe Chief, an unalterable fact. Nevertheless, we’ve endured significant losses because of her. In the future, don’t heed her words. We’ll provide for her, but nothing more.”

Gary’s thoughts were entirely consumed by the Tribe Chief’s intentions, and he held steadfast trust in her.
“Giles, what can she possibly achieve besides infatuation? She’s only known to deceive our fellow clansmen,” Giles muttered unhappily.
“This plan will definitely succeed. I guarantee it!” Gary asserted firmly.
“I’m certain it will fail,” Giles insisted.
“It will unquestionably succeed,” Gary retorted with a hint of anger.
“The Tribe Chief is fundamentally ignorant and unconcerned,” echoed others in agreement. They, too, believed that the three of them were foolish for continuing to heed the Tribe Chief’s advice.
A heated debate ensued.
Gu Chaoyan returned at a leisurely pace.
“The Tribe Chief is back,” Gary exclaimed excitedly.
