Chapter 458

In fact, poison arrow frog is not the name of a poisonous frog, but the general name of all poisonous frogs. Basically, all brightly colored and highly toxic frogs in the Amazon rainforest are called poison arrow frog, and that's the problem.

Not all poisonous frogs have lethal toxicity, and the sources of toxicity are also different. The toxins on some poisonous frogs come from themselves, while the toxins on some poisonous frogs may come from insects eating poisonous plants. After eating those insects, they accumulate the toxins in insects and turn them into their own defense weapons. Therefore, Some poison dart frogs bred by humans are completely non-toxic.

Because of the characteristics of arrow poison frog, the toxin provided by arrow poison frog is not reliable. Sometimes it may only need a very small amount of toxin to make the prey die quickly. Sometimes, although the poison arrow hit the prey, the prey has nothing to do.

Of course, South American Indians must have rich experience in dealing with these arrow poison frogs all year round. As long as they are not too vegetable rookies, they should know what poison of poison frogs can be used to make arrow poison and what can't be. There are indeed many primitive tribes that specifically hunt with poison of arrow poison frogs, but there are few such tribes, far less than those that use plant arrow poison, The reason is also very simple, because the poison of arrow poison frog is not only more deadly to prey, but also more dangerous to users.

The commonly used plant arrow poison suffocates the prey, while most of the poison of arrow poison frog belongs to neurotoxin, that is, there is no rescue in the middle, which is similar to the toxin extracted by beetle larvae used by Gao Yang in Africa. However, the time for arrow poison frog's toxin to kill the prey is countless times faster than the toxin used by Gao Yang.

Walking by the river often can't keep your shoes wet. For those hunters, it's difficult to avoid being accidentally rubbed and stabbed by their own poison arrows. If they use the poison of the arrow poison frog with extremely strong toxicity, stabbing it by their own arrow means they will die. However, if they use the arrow poison frog toxin with not very strong toxicity, it's better to use the arrow poison extracted from plants.

Researchers around the world have done a lot of research on poison dart frogs, and Gao Yang's knowledge about poison dart frogs is seen from a documentary. Based on his understanding of poison dart frogs, the most toxic poison dart frogs in the world are in Colombia. A kind of poison dart frog called Koko frog can kill a strong man with a toxin of only 0.0003 G, At present, the fastest killing record of arrow poison frog is four seconds, and there is no conclusive evidence to prove this record.

Although poison dart frogs are extremely toxic and kill people very quickly, even if they can kill a person in two seconds, it is impossible for people to have no chance to shout out words in two seconds.

Gao Yang doesn't believe what lucika said. He's just confused, so after asking lucika, he hopes to get the answer.

Lucika's answer didn't disappoint Gao Yang. After smiling and saying an Indian word, lucika continued: "I'm talking about the name of a tribe. Now this tribe has basically died out, because the people of this tribe have accepted modern culture and they no longer live in the form of tribes."

After she paused, Lucy said: "I know a lot of people in this tribe. Someone told me that there are old people in their tribe who can make a kind of arrow poison, which is a mixture of two kinds of arrow poison frogs. They don't use it when hunting, but when they fight with other tribes. Now one of the poison frogs can't be seen, and few people can make this kind of arrow poison, but Yes, there are still traces of this arrow poison, and I have it now. "

Gao Yang suddenly became interested. He said excitedly, "you have this kind of thing? Great. How about the effect?"

Lucika whispered, "the people of that tribe will use this kind of arrow poison when sneaking attacks on the enemy. According to people I know, people who get poisoned arrows will die before opening their mouth but making no sound, so they call this kind of arrow poison open mouth death."

Gao Yang immediately said, "is the effect really so exaggerated? You know, we can't take a living man to do experiments, and we can't verify the effect of the toxin you say when we take action."

After a moment of silence, Lucy nodded and said, "I've seen the effect of this kind of arrow poison. Put the arrow poison on the arrow, and the person who gets the arrow will die silently at once."

Gao Yang chose to trust Lucy card. He said excitedly, "very good. If we have this thing, our action will be much simpler. I'm curious how you got this."

Lucy looked at Bruce, then bit her lips and said, "my ex husband left me a relic. He is from that tribe. Arrow poison was passed on to him by his father. It belongs to me after he died."

Gao Yang immediately said with an apologetic face, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

Bruce patted Lucy on the shoulder, and then wanted to hold Lucy in her arms. Unfortunately, Lucy didn't know whether she was embarrassed or what. She pushed Bruce away from her arm, and then said calmly, "there's nothing to be sorry about. It's all over."

Gao Yang cleared his throat and said: "Well, silent weapons are available now. I can use bows and arrows. I'll just make a simple bow and arrow myself later. Lucy can use blowing arrows. Well, now let's talk about what other equipment we need, especially Lucy, what gun you are good at or like? In addition, I can't find the same equipment for you now. You can only use the existing ones for the time being I've got my equipment. "

Lucy card frowned and said, "I've always used M16 rifles. I can use AK47 and pistols. I know how to use them, but I haven't played much. Other equipment, I don't know what you're talking about. I can't use those things you take, night vision, etc."

Gao Yang suddenly thought of a very serious problem. He immediately shouted, "Lucy, can you read?"

Lucy card's face looked a little unnatural and said, "I've been in the guerrilla camp in perano since I was born. I didn't go to school, so I can't read. However, if it's English, I can read. I can speak and write. My mother taught me, but I can write, read and write. I don't have much vocabulary."

Gao Yang took a long breath and said with a smile: "Please, it's not only knowing Spanish that you can read. Spanish doesn't matter. As long as you can recognize English, well, you can read. You can learn other things you can't, but it's troublesome to read from scratch. But now I have to tell you that you still have a lot to learn, very much, but now, you just need to deal with the things at hand."
