Slingshot is a cold weapon or a game tool. Slingshot is generally made of branches in the shape of a "ya", with epithelial tendons at both ends of the upper end and a piece of skin wrapped in the body. Strength depends on the tension of the rubber band. The greater the tension of the rubber band, the greater the power of the slingshot. A long-range weapon that fires projectiles with a bow. In ancient times, projectiles were mostly used for hunting. In ancient poetry, there is a description of "breaking bamboo and bamboo and flying soil to eat meat" It means cutting bamboo to make bows and shooting birds and animals with clay balls. Later, it developed into a martial arts instrument. There are many ways to launch a projectile, such as "Su Qin carries a sword" and "Zhang Fei shoots a horse". Zhang Xian, a Shen Lu legend who sent his son to China, is an expert in using slingshots. Leonardo da Vinci in Europe also suggested launching smelly bombs with slingshots. Because it is a dangerous weapon, please don't shoot people indiscriminately.

In ancient China, there was a "shooting" tool, that is, a slingshot. The principle of slingshots is the same as that of bows and arrows, which are all launched by ejection force, but slingshots use projectiles, while bows and arrows use arrows.

In addition, in ancient legends, the gods of Mount Tai love hunting, and they must use slingshots for hunting. However, because slingshots are lighter than bows and arrows, easier to carry and use, and their close-range lethality is not weak, they are widely spread among the people. In many martial arts novels, slingshots are used as weapons by chivalrous men.
