Chapter 448: Arrow Poison

Poison dart frog is actually not the name of a poisonous frog, but a general term for all poisonous frogs, basically all the brightly colored, highly poisonous frogs in the Amazon rainforest are called poison dart frogs, and this is where the problem lies.

Not all poisonous frogs are lethal and toxic, and the source of toxicity is not the same, some poisonous frogs have toxins from themselves, and some poisonous frogs may have poison from insects that eat poisonous plants, after eating those insects, the toxins in the insects' bodies accumulate and transform into their own defense weapons, so some human poison dart frogs are not toxic at all.

Because of the nature of poison dart frogs, the toxins provided by poison dart frogs are not very reliable, sometimes only a very small amount of toxin is needed to make the prey die quickly, and sometimes, it may also be used to hit the prey, but the prey is fine.

Of course, the South American Indians deal with these poison dart frogs all year round, and must have rich experience, as long as they are not rookies, they should know what poison frog poison can be used to make poison and what can't, and there are indeed many primitive tribes that specialize in hunting with poison dart frog toxins, but there are very few such tribes, far less than the tribes that use plant poison curare, and the reason is still very simple, because the poison of poison dart frogs is not only more lethal to the prey, but also more dangerous to the user.

The commonly used plant curare poison suffocates the prey, while the toxin of the poison dart frog is overwhelmingly neurotoxin, that is, the middle is hopeless, which is similar to the toxin extracted from the beetle larvae that Gao Yang used when he was in Africa, but the toxin of the poison dart frog kills the prey countless times faster than the toxin that Gao Yang used.

Walk by the river. How can you not get your shoes wet. For those hunters. If you use the poison of the poison frog with extremely poisonous poison frog, it means that you will die, and with those poison frog toxins that are not very violent, it is better to use the arrow poison extracted from the plant.

Researchers in the world have done a lot of research on poison dart frogs, and Gao Yang's knowledge about poison dart frogs is from a documentary, based on his knowledge of poison dart frogs, the most poisonous poison dart frog in the world is in Colombia. A poison dart frog called Coco frog, this poison dart frog can kill a strong man with only 0.0003 grams, and the fastest known record for poison dart frog killing is four seconds, and there is no conclusive evidence to prove this record.

Although poison dart frogs are extremely poisonous and kill people very quickly, even if they can kill a person in two seconds, it is impossible for people to not even have a chance to shout in two seconds.

Gao Yang didn't believe Lucica's words, he was just very confused, so after asking Lucica. He was hoping for answers.

Lucica's answer did not disappoint Gao Yang, smiling after uttering an Indian word. Lucika continued: "I'm talking about the name of a tribe that is now largely dead out because the people of this tribe have embraced modern civilization and they no longer live as tribes. ”

After a pause, Lucika said: "I know many people in this tribe, and one person told me that there are old people in their tribe who can make a kind of arrow poison, which is a mixture of the toxins of two poison dart frogs, and they will not use it when hunting, but especially when fighting with other tribes, now one of the poison frogs is no longer seen, and there are very few people who can do this kind of poison, but there are still remnants of this kind of poison, and I have it now." ”

Gao Yang became interested all of a sudden, and he said excitedly: "You actually have such a thing?" Great, how does it work? ”

Lucika said softly: "The people of that tribe will use this arrow poison when they sneak up on the enemy, according to people I know, people who are hit by poisoned arrows will die before they open their mouths but do not make a sound, so they call this arrow poison open mouth death." ”

Gao Yang immediately said: "Is the effect really so exaggerated?" You know, we can't experiment with a big living person, and we can't test the effect of the toxin you're talking about. ”

Lucika was silent for a moment, then nodded: "I have seen the effect of this kind of arrow poison, smearing the arrow poison on the blow arrow, and the person who is hit by the blow arrow will die immediately and silently." ”

Gao Yang chose to believe Lucica, and he said excitedly: "Very good, if we have this thing, our actions will be a lot easier, I am curious how you got this." ”

Lucika looked at Bruce, then bit her lip and said, "The relic left to me by my ex-husband, he is a member of that tribe, the poison was passed on to him by his father, and it will belong to me after he dies." ”

Gao Yang immediately said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry." ”

Bruce patted Lucica's shoulder, and then wanted to take Lucika into his arms, but unfortunately Lucica didn't know if she was embarrassed or what, but after pushing Bruce away by the arm she was holding, she said calmly: "There's nothing to be sorry for, it's all gone." ”

Gao Yang cleared his throat and said: "Then, the silent weapon is now available, I can use a bow and arrow, I can make a simple bow and arrow by myself later, Lucica can use a blow arrow, okay, now let's talk about what other equipment is needed, especially Lucica, what gun are you good at or like?" Also, I can't find you the same equipment as we have right now, so you'll have to use what you can find for the time being. ”

Lucika frowned and said, "I've always used the M16 rifle, the others I will use the AK47, and the pistol I know how to use it, but I haven't fought much, other equipment, I don't know what you are talking about, the things you take, night vision devices or something, I won't use it." ”

Gao Yang suddenly thought of a very serious question, and he immediately said urgently: "Lucica, are you literate?" ”

The expression on Lucica's face was a little unnatural, and she said: "I was born in a guerrilla camp in Parano, and I didn't go to school, so I can't read, but if it's English, I'll be literate, I can speak and write, my mother taught me, but I don't have much vocabulary to write, read and write." ”

Gao Yang let out a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Please, it's not just that you know Spanish to be literate, Spanish doesn't matter, as long as you can recognize English, okay, you can be literate, other things that you can't learn can be learned, but it's troublesome to be literate from scratch, but I have to tell you now, you still have a lot to learn, a lot, but now, you just need to deal with the things in front of you."
