Chapter 167: Poison

The old man looked around like a thief, quickly packed up the things in the house, and "coo" twice, and several frogs, which had been lying quietly on the ground at the door, jumped away, some ran into the woods, and some went to the river.

After cleaning up, the old man pulled Shao Xuan in one direction, and explained to Shao Xuan in a low voice as he walked, "If you want frog poison, naturally you want frog poison with very good effect, and my grandson can help you get it, and you can have whatever you want." ”

The old man was afraid that Shao Xuan would regret it and turn away, so he talked to Shao Xuan again and again.

He was afraid that Shao Xuan would be troublesome and go to other people's houses to buy it, after all, there are many people in the Pu tribe who sell frog poison, such as many people in the Pu tribe, they like to buy the kind of utensils that have been smeared with frog poison, and directly use a pack of things, stuff them into the basket, and pay Shui Yueshi to leave.

And what the old man has to do now is to take Shao Xuan to cash out, which is a little more troublesome than other people's.

Shao Xuan doesn't think anything, as long as he can buy ideal things, it doesn't matter if he is troublesome. Moreover, he was quite curious when he saw the old man scraping something from the frog before.

In the past, when they were out hunting, the warriors also liked to use some things from animals, and used those poisons to smear the weapons in their hands, such as spearheads, ground bows, and so on. Among them, there are various poisons, and frog poison is more commonly used.

The people of the Yanjiao tribe will first kill the frog, and then put the dead frog on the fire to bake, and the poisonous juice will slowly seep out of the frog's glands.

After the frog poison comes out, as long as you hold the weapon that needs to be smeared, you can apply it back and forth on the frog to achieve the desired effect. Poisonous frogs, warriors only need to smear a little frog poison on the equipment to hunt prey, generally the frog poison beast will die quickly. Fierce beasts, on the other hand, are more resistant and cannot die, but it will affect their actions.

"It's almost there, don't worry. The old man said hurriedly.

Shao Xuan was not in a hurry, but the old man next to him was more anxious, and he pulled Shao Xuan to a place by the river. looked at the big lotus leaves in the river, and then shouted, "Look, are you there?!"

The lotus leaves on the river moved with the wind, and some frogs in the river were chirping, but there was no voice.

The old man was so angry that his beard shook a few times, and he said again: "Come out, I see you!"

Still no one answered.

The old man took a deep breath and yelled, "Get out! I know you're here!"

Finally, a helpless reply came from a lotus bush not far away: "Here you are." Grandpa, what's the matter?"

A figure jumped out of the lotus leaf bush, and after a few ups and downs, it came to a large lotus leaf on the bank of the river. His gaze swept over Shao Xuan, and then looked at the old man, "Grandpa, you can sell whatever you want, why call me." I'm still sleeping!"

"Sleep, sleep!" said the old man's eyes bulging as if they were about to bulge, "Come here." The young man who fell from the outside wanted to buy frog poison. ”

"There are so many frog poisons in the tribe, where to buy them is not to buy, grandpa, I remember you collected several jars at home. He yawned and said.

The old man took a breath and grunted. didn't look at Shao Xuan, and he wasn't afraid of the thorns on the lotus stem, so he bent his arm and fished out the lotus leaf stem, "You come down for me! Sleep all day long, anxious to survive the winter?!"

I can't help it. Jumping off the lotus leaf, half-closed eyelids as if he hadn't woken up, he looked at Shao Xuan, "You want to buy frog poison?"

The old man slapped over, and then looked at Shao Xuan with a smile: "Young man, what kind of frog poison do you want?"

Shao Xuan thought for a moment and said, "Can I take a look at those frogs first?" I don't know how different the frogs here are from the Yanjiao tribe.

"Yes, yes!" the old man hurriedly replied, without waiting for an answer.

He whispered a word of "trouble", then jumped on the lotus leaf, his cheeks bulged, and he made several "coo" cries in succession, and returned to the shore.

After a while, Shao Xuan saw some frogs jumping out of the woods one after another, and a few from the river.

Most of these frogs are brightly colored, and some of them look inconspicuous, and they also come together.

Each one is no bigger than the palm of the hand, and after jumping over, it surrounds the mouse, and does not run, just there, occasionally moving the hind legs to smear the mucus on the body and keep the epidermis moist.

"That's all, this frog's poison relieves pain, and it works very well, I've used it on the beasts in the mountains over there. He said.

"And then?" asked Shao Xuan.

"Dead. ”

Shao Xuan: "......"

"If you use too much of it, even if it can be used as medicine, it becomes poison. He said.

If poison is used well, it is medicine, and if it is not used well, it is poison, and this Shao Xuan naturally knows.

"This one, this one, and this one are all poisonous, and they can poison the beasts in the mountains and forests to death with a little bit. He introduced a few to Shao Xuan, and then asked, "What kind of poison do you need?"

After asking a lot of questions, he stopped and looked at Shao Xuan. He usually doesn't like to participate in transactions, but since his grandfather has pulled everyone over, he naturally has to do his duty, otherwise, this transaction can't be won, and his grandfather will have to nag him when he goes back.

Shao Xuan was stunned when he heard this series of questions, he had also used a lot of poison when he was in the Yanjiao Tribe, but he had never been so meticulous, it seemed that the young man in front of him was very good at this.

Seeing Shao Xuan staring at the frogs, he didn't make a sound, and the old man standing next to him was anxious, "If you don't know which one to choose, you can buy them all back and try a little." After speaking, he turned back to the tiger and made a tiger face, "Hurry up and make some stingers!"

He scratched his head and said helplessly: "Okay." ”

After speaking, he walked to the woods, and the old man diligently pulled Shao Xuan to follow, "Although this kid in my family is a little lazy, but his understanding of poisonous frogs, I don't dare to say that the old man is the first, but he is definitely ahead of the tribe." ”

Shao Xuan followed them towards the woods, these two people had no malicious intentions, and they were not as careful as those Pu tribe traders before. Moreover, Shao Xuan also wanted to see how the people of the Pu tribe took poison from frogs.

Shao Xuan understands the poisonous frog, this Shao Xuan believes that there are dazzling bright yellow patterns around the eyes and on the eyelids, which is very similar to a highly poisonous frog that jumped out just now. What kind of preference, what kind of pattern will be drawn, through guò can be seen that the frog is very fond of poisonous frogs, and naturally will know more about poisonous frogs.

When walking in the woods, when passing some plants with long thorns, the stinger will break some hard thorns from above, and when there is a large handful of hard thorns in his hand, the stinger stops, and then he uses the stone knife carried by the old man to cut the wood, splits it in the middle, puts the wood on the ground, and quacks a few times, and when the frogs come, he takes out a hard thorn, holds it between his index and middle fingers, and wipes it on the nearest frog with a blue pattern.

Some clear liquid is secreted from the frog, which is a little frog poison that can bring down the whole deer.

The long, hard thorns were stained with venom, but they didn't hurt the frog in the slightest.

After wiping it, he flipped his wrist, palms down, and slapped it like lightning against the wood that had just been split.

By the time he withdrew his hand, the hard thorns that had been smeared with poison were firmly nailed to the wood. The tip of the hard thorn is pointed upwards, and the one that is driven into the wood is the broken end. Just like when a nail is driven, it is not the tip of the nail that is driven into the wood, but the other end.

This series of actions can be seen that Yu is very skilled in this and has done a lot of such things.

One after another, the hard thorns that have been smeared with poison are firmly nailed to the wood, and each frog poison is made of five, and after one frog stinger is finished, it will be replaced by another frog, and then smeared.

"Although the poison of this frog may not be able to poison people, its main effect is this. He rubbed the thorn on a dark blue frog, and then applied the poison from the thorn to the leaf of a nearby plant.

I only heard the sound of "snort", and the poison on the leaf was quickly corroded out of a hole, and it was still smoking, and it smelled a little pungent, obviously there was no smell when the poison was smeared just now.

It's hard to imagine that such a poison could have been taken from a frog that was less than the size of a palm.

As for the hard thorns used, because there is a layer of corrosion-resistant crust on the surface, it will not be corroded by these poisons.

He continued to nail the poisoned hard thorns to the wooden fast, and when the poison on these hard thorns was dry, he took them off the wooden block, wrapped them in something, and when he wanted to use them in the future, just take them directly, and the effect of the dried venom would not be weakened much, but there was a time limit, and the longer the time, the weaker the poisonous effect.

Shao Xuan watched as he nailed the hard thorns smeared with poison into the wooden block with his bare hands, he knew that the venom of many frog poisons could only work through guò blood, if it was not scratched, the venom would not have much effect, and many of them could only make the fingers rash, and they were not fatal. When the warriors of the Flamehorn tribe caught poisonous animals on their bodies, they would take certain protective measures, either wrapping their hands with something or using other tools to catch them.

Now, there are a lot of frog venom here that can directly pass through the skin and have an effect without scratching, but people with poisonous stingers can calmly operate with fingers that do not do any protection. If you get a little bit of it, it will be corroded or poisoned.

Especially when nailing the poisoned thorn into the wooden block, many people will worry that the venom on the thorn will slide down the thorn to the finger, but the thorn can always stop at the moment before the venom drips, so that the venom does not get the slightest touch.

What surprised Shao Xuan even more was that after the wooden block was nailed out of place, the remaining few were directly held in his mouth, and his teeth were gritted and the one that was not stained with poison was stabbed. As long as it is a little bit on the lips, it will be good.

This is a very dangerous thing, but the old man next to him is not surprised, he has seen it many times and is not worried.

After the hard thorns were smeared with poison, the venom on the hard thorns gradually dried up, and the poisonous hard thorns were pulled out, of course, this time it was not with bare hands, with the help of leaves.

handed the wrapped poisonous hard thorn to Shao Xuan, and said, "Okay, you can try these, if you think it's good, you can come again, just find this old man, I'll go to sleep." (To be continued......)
