Big Islander 2

Chapter 430 Locusts Transit
When Tang Jide and Xiao Xiami proposed to bid farewell to the Forgotten Tribe temporarily, whether it was the young Kapac III or the high priest, they finally proposed to stay in unison this time. The big head is regarded as a good laborer by the high priest.

The treatment was so bad, so the big brother went away angrily, while Xiao Xiami explained with a smile that they would come back here, and maybe they could bring surprises to the Inca tribe, so Capac III let go her arms.

In addition to Hum Ha and Mr. Bei, there were two more people traveling together, namely Sanchez and Sophie.Anyway, they are experts in the study of South American civilization, much better than amateurs like Tang Jide and Xiao Xiami.Exploring them is a strong point, but archeology still requires professionals.

Although Sophie's glasses were never found again, Xiao Xiami ground her two new lenses with crystal; the skillful craftsmen in the Inca relics put gold rims on the lenses, and even hollowed out the frames and temples. The pattern looks very beautiful.

Sure enough, it was the Buddha's golden outfit. After replacing the old rustic big myopia, Sophie looked so beautiful that other members of the expedition team looked straight at her: How did the ugly duckling turn into a white swan?

It's a pity that they didn't have the chance to appreciate it, because the rest of them were left in the tribe, and their greed has already caused them to be excluded from the ranks of teammates by Tang Jide.

The last member was the guide in the tiger skin skirt and the number one warrior in the tribe. He was entrusted by the Son of the Sun and the High Priest to act as a guide for Tang Jide and the others.The name of this warrior is very long, and he was simply called "big brother" by the pheasant. Who told you to wear a tiger skin skirt?

This elder brother is worthy of being the number one warrior in the tribe. I saw him carrying a longbow on his back and wielding a bronze knife in his hand, clearing the way in front of him, forcibly opening a passage between the weeds and low-hanging vines. brother" style.

Moreover, his jungle experience is very rich, he can subdue all kinds of poisonous insects and beasts, and he is also familiar with all kinds of poisonous plants, which makes Master Pei, a jungle expert, proud of himself.

It's just that the result of this is that the speed of the team is very slow. If you want to crawl like a turtle in the vast Amazon rainforest, it is estimated that even if you can find the place that the pheasant said, it will take a year of the monkey.

That's why Tang Jide and Xiao Xiami played together. One of them is responsible for opening the way. Whether it's dense grass or tough vines, they will all automatically separate to the two sides, showing a smooth road; Be it a poisonous snake or a ferocious beast, they all stay away.When encountering an army of marching ants, the senior brother hurriedly urged everyone to apply formic acid on their bodies, but found that the marching ants, which had always been going forward bravely, suddenly gave up a passage, and everyone passed through without any danger.

The elder brother was completely impressed by the two people: he is indeed the messenger of the sun god, and he really has magical abilities!

Seeing the obedient and rebellious elder brother, Ye Ji couldn't help being happy: "Big head, you are almost becoming Tang Sanzang——"

"Just because of your nagging, you are Tang Seng." Big Touge retorted, but he was talking about the Westward Journey version of Tang Seng.

Because of these two leading the way, the extremely difficult and dangerous journey became very smooth, and even made Ms. Sophie feel like an outing. She was already prepared for hardship.

The old man Sanchez still looked calm, he seemed to turn a blind eye to all this, and from time to time he said that his legs and feet were not working well, and Tang Jide had to carry it on his back for a while, while he enjoyed it all with peace of mind.However, when Tang Jide found a piranha in the dark jungle and ripened it into a small purple fruit, the old man finally stopped calm, and the folds on his face trembled with excitement: "This, this is Is it the legendary divine fruit that can keep people young forever!"

Tang Jide smacked his lips: "I'm still immortal. I'm not that amazing, but it's true that after eating to strengthen your body, all diseases will disappear. This is specially made for you, eat it quickly. Don't always fall behind after eating, and don't always eat it." Tell me to carry you—”

Sanchez's eyes became extremely eager, holding the purple widow in his hand, trembling.Of course, he had heard about this strange fruit from his old friends, and it took no effort to get it. It seemed that the owner of the Big Head Island had a really good character.

"Eat it quickly, you will attract all the wolves in a while!" Tang Jide quickly reminded that this thing has a great attraction to animals, enough to drive them crazy.

When Sanchez ate Purple Widow and sat on the ground to absorb the medicine, Sophie also reached out to Tang Jide for it.She is open and generous, without any shyness, as if the big brother owes others.

"It's not too late to eat when you become an old woman." Tang Jide replied angrily. He really thought that the purple widow was a jelly bean, so you can eat it if you want?
Sophie withdrew her hand as soon as she agreed, as if everything was logical.Brother Big Tou also had to sigh: Perhaps only this kind of temperament can swim in the sea of ​​complicated ancient characters——

After taking the purple widow, although the superficial changes of the old man Sang were not obvious, his physical strength became very abundant, and he was able to compete with the elder brother, which also made the old man happy from ear to ear all day long.Yes, is there anything more precious than youth?

Before he knew it, he had walked through the jungle for more than ten days, and Tang Jide could not help complaining to the pheasant: "The World Cup is about to start, if you lead us for a walk in the rainforest again, just go back and forget it!"

The pheasant is the most money fan: "It's hard to come here and look for it again. I remember that the vegetation in that place seems to be very lush."

Tang Jide raised his head and looked around, and everywhere he saw were tall and towering trees. There seemed to be no trees that did not grow luxuriantly here.

This is also impossible, the scene in the rainforest is similar everywhere, except for the rivers, swamps and trees, and there is no symbolic thing, which is really embarrassing for the pheasants.

Even so, Tang Jide and Xiao Xiami still rushed to the top of the tree from time to time, looking around, hoping to find something different.Looking down on the rainforest from the sky, the scene is even more spectacular. There is simply a green ocean below, and the scattered trees are like undulating waves in the blue sea.

Not to mention, it is really rewarding to climb high and look far away. On this day, when Tang Jide stood on the top of the sea of ​​trees and looked at it, he found a small black spot hovering in the distant sky.At first, I thought it was a large raptor like a horned eagle, but as the little black spot gradually approached, I found that it was a helicopter.

Big Brother's brain was a little short-circuited for a while, and he was even more surprised than seeing a flying saucer: No way, how could there be a helicopter here?

After he came down, he hurriedly told everyone about the situation, and Lao Sang immediately looked serious: "It is very likely that we have encountered a guy who grows coca in the rainforest—"

Tang Jide scratched the back of his head: "What is coca? Is it a food crop? Does it sound familiar?"

Lao Sang glared at him: "For those who like cocaine, coca is indeed their spiritual food."

Little Xiami also blinked his big eyes helplessly: "Uncle Big Head, coca is a kind of shrub, and cocaine can be extracted from its leaves."

Tang Jide heheed twice, then scratched the back of his head: "I thought poisons were extracted from poppies."

"Opium, morphine, heroin, these are drugs extracted from opium poppy; in addition, there is cannabis extracted from a plant called Indian cannabis, and there is also cannabis extracted from The cocaine isolated from coca leaves is the three most important plants for extracting drugs in the world today." Xiao Xiami continued to educate Uncle Datou.

"In fact, the plants themselves are innocent—" Brother Big Tou also explained, because he couldn't hear people saying that plants were bad.

Little Xiami nodded with a smile, and then asked Uncle Big Tou to lead the way, let's go over together to see if the three-legged monster is interested in the growing coca leaves.They have always wanted to conduct this experiment, and finally met the subject of the experiment.Brother Datou is also faintly excited: "If it can be successful, it doesn't matter if it is the "Golden ~ Triangle" in Asia, or the "Golden ~ Moon", or the "Silver ~ Triangle" in America, all belong to my "Tang Sanjiao" "rule."

"Hearing what you said, Da Xing is drooling, Da Tou, hurry up and get him some sugar triangles." Pheasant quacked a smirk.

Seeing them frolicking heartlessly, Lao Sang felt a little worried: Those gangs that grow and sell drugs are all armed drug dealers, and they are not comparable to the natives who use bows and arrows. Shouldn't their attitude be more cautious? Woolen cloth?

Now, Lao Sang doesn't know whether they are highly skilled and bold, or if they are heartless.

When I climbed up to look far away, Brother Big Tou had already memorized the approximate location, so I felt all the way there, walking, and suddenly the pitcher with the three-legged monster on his waist started to make noise, and it seemed to explode the cage.Tang Jide was overjoyed, and quickly opened the lid, and countless three-legged monsters swarmed out, flew into the air, and disappeared.But all of this can only be felt by Tang Jide, and others cannot detect it with naked eyes.

And at this moment, in an open area a few miles away, dozens of people are busy non-stop.These people were divided into two teams. One group felled and burned the rainforest to open up plantations; the other group was busy picking fresh leaves under the coca trees, and then processed and refined them.It's like a busy and idyllic farm, but unfortunately, what they produce is not produce, but the most wicked things in the world.

In fact, picking and eating coca has a long history in South America. The local aborigines discovered the medicinal value of coca leaves more than 2000 years ago, thus forming the custom of picking coca leaves and chewing them. Unfortunately, , this kind of plant that was originally beneficial to human beings has gradually become the embodiment of evil since cocaine can be isolated from it.As Tang Jide said, the plants themselves are innocent, it only depends on how you use them.

There are also some guards carrying submachine guns, scattered around in twos and threes, they should be the easiest, because in this rainforest, except for those wild beasts that come to your door without knowing their life and death, it is almost impossible to find someone.

However, when a bald man with a big belly walked over, the lax guards quickly put on a serious posture, because this is their parents, the owner of this coca plantation, Ostav gentlemen.

Standing under a coca tree, looking at the fresh leaves on it, Ostav was very satisfied, couldn't help but lit a Cuban cigar, and took a good puff.As for cocaine, he wouldn't do it.

This is already the second batch of coca leaves picked this year, and it will be another bumper harvest.The helicopter that just came back brought him exciting news: the first batch of cocaine was extracted, and he was given wads of banknotes in exchange.Ostav had never been happier than he was today since he lost the battle for territory in the Silver Triangle.

He couldn't help being a little complacent: Fortunately, he had the courage to open up a new battlefield.It’s better to be deep in the Amazon rainforest. The sky is high and the emperor is far away. You don’t have to worry about competitors and government troops, just concentrate on production——

But at this moment, something horrifying happened to him. The coca leaves in front of him seemed to melt, and disappeared in a flash, leaving only bare branches, swaying pitifully at him .

Oh, hell—Ostav shook his head violently, thinking he was hallucinating.But when his eyes swept over the coca bushes, he found that they all seemed to have suffered from locusts, and all the leaves disappeared——
