Survive in the Wilderness with Celebrities

Chapter 243 Encountering a Poison Dart Frog (Subscription Request)
"Snake, there seems to be a snake over there!"

Hearing Liu Yan's somewhat frightened voice, Meng Chao quickly looked in the direction she pointed.

"Where is it and what color is it?" Meng Chao asked as he looked at it.

In order to ensure that they don't have an easy time, the production crew didn't even provide them with night vision goggles this time.

Otherwise, you can just take a quick look and find it.

"It's the same color as the bark, a very small strip. I saw it sticking out its tongue, otherwise I wouldn't have noticed it."

"There!" Liu Yan pointed.

It was at this time that Meng Chao discovered the little snake.

Too bad he couldn't identify what breed it was.

"It's too small, only slightly thicker than a thumb, and there's not much meat to eat, so let's not kill it." Meng Chao said, turning his head to look at everyone: "Continue to explore forward for a distance, everyone pay attention to the surroundings."

There are only two reasons why Meng Chao attacks animals: one is to eat them, and the other is that he feels that the animals will threaten his safety.

He has no desire to kill animals for fun, nor does he approve of such behavior.

In order to survive, it is understandable that all carnivores will hunt other animals.

"There should be cassava here, right?" An Yifei asked curiously, looking at the plants around her.

She didn't know much about the Amazon. After all, she didn't think the production team would bring them to this place.

"Of course, but I haven't found any cassava yet."

"There are millions of species in the Amazon, so it's easy to find food in a place like this."

"The yellow flower in front is edible. I can't remember what it is called."

As he spoke, Meng Chao walked straight to the flower and pulled it in front of him.

"What is this orchid called? Some viewers should be able to recognize it, right?"

"When I return this time, I have to brush up on my knowledge of plants."

[Excuse my lack of knowledge, I really don’t know what kind of flower this is. ]

[Brother Chao just forgot that it is called Odontoglossum, knowing that it is an orchid and that it is edible is enough. ]

[This forest is too dense, and the leaves seem to be wet. Is the humidity so high? ]

[Is the rain forest called for nothing? Maybe it just rained. 】

[It's really hard to stay in this place for 14 days. I'm sure someone will give up soon, right? ]

[I just want to know when IU will return. If she's not here, I won't follow her.]

[I also came here for IU, when can she come back? ]

[As long as there is no crossing mission, it is not difficult to stay in the rainforest for more than ten days. 】

[There are so many mosquitoes. The mosquito repellent seems to have no effect. They are all hovering over their heads.]

[I don’t know if you have heard of mosquito cakes. There is a place that has this kind of food. ]

[Ugh~ Mosquitoes can be made into cakes, isn't that too incredible? ]

[I only know that in some places people use mud to make cakes to eat, but I didn’t expect there are mosquito cakes. It’s so scary.]

"It seems to have been blocked. I didn't see any audience mention what kind of flower this is." Liu Yan, who was paying attention to the barrage, said a little depressed.

"I understand that the program team doesn't want us to get help from the audience." Meng Chao said calmly.

Meng Chao glanced at the comments and found that there were quite a lot of people in his live broadcast room.

But after looking at the popularity value, it didn't increase much.

Seeing this, he was already considering whether to use the good luck charm. Once used, he might be able to find a good place to build a shelter.

It is also possible to find some plants that can be used as staple food, such as cassava and bananas.

After walking for a while, Meng Chao found a plant full of black fruits.

"Meng Chao, can that black fruit be eaten?" Huang Bo also discovered the plant and asked curiously.

"Of course, this is acai berry and it's edible." Meng Chao replied with a smile.

"That's great. We don't have to go hungry at night." Huang Bo also showed a happy smile on his face.

"So this is what the acai berry tree looks like. I've only seen the fruit, but not the tree." An Yifei tilted her head back and looked at the clusters of fruit.

There are not only black fruits on it, but also many green fruits.

Relatively speaking, there are fewer black ones.

Acai berry is often regarded as a superfood. It is a dark purple-red berry produced from the Acai palm tree in South America. It is the most well-known antioxidant active substance known in the world.

Acai berry is easily absorbed by the human body and is an immune system booster. It is low in sugar and is a good source of fiber.

Acai berry is also an excellent source of various nutrients, such as unsaturated fatty acids, vitamin E, and plant sterols, and can provide a perfect complex of almost all essential amino acids.

It can't be a staple food, but it's totally fine as an occasional meal.

"Let me climb." Zhang Jin volunteered.

Meng Chao originally planned to cut it down, but gave up when he saw Zhang Jin stand up.

"You guys collect some dry firewood here. If there is no dry firewood, just cut some bushes. I'll go around the area. If we can't find water, we'll camp nearby at night." With that, Meng Chao prepared to take action.

"I'll go with you." An Yifei decisively followed Meng Chao.

Meng Chao did not stop An Yifei and continued to explore forward.

After a while, the two saw a very beautiful little frog.

"Look, that frog is so beautiful." An Yifei pointed to a frog lying on a leaf.

"Is this the highly toxic poison dart frog?" An Yifei asked curiously.

She thought Meng Chao should know it, after all, the poison dart frog is very famous.

"Yes, it's a poison dart frog. This is the first time I've seen one in real life. It's much more beautiful than in the picture."

He didn't expect that there are frogs that are not photogenic.

"It's really beautiful, but it's extremely poisonous. It can kill people if they touch it." An Yifei didn't dare to get close and could only watch from a distance.

A shot was also given to the tracking ball. After all, a creature that can make the audience nervous is still worthy of a close-up.

"Do you want to get rid of it?" An Yifei glanced at Meng Chao and asked hesitantly.

If they stayed overnight at the acai berry location, the poison dart frog would be very close to them.

What if I run into their makeshift camp at night and they accidentally run into me?
Or, has its venom contaminated food or drinking water?

Although this possibility is very low, it cannot be completely ruled out.

"It's not easy to handle. The program team didn't even give us a slingshot this time, otherwise it would be easy to handle." Meng Chao said helplessly.

Unfortunately, they have limited supplies this time and no materials to make slingshots.

So, he wanted to make a wooden bow as soon as possible.

With a wooden bow in hand, you can shoot some animals when you encounter them.
