"It's not really research, it's just a little personal hobby, haha." Hearing Jiang Mi say this, Liu Ji straightened his back with some pride, but spoke modestly.
Even though it was just a small hobby, he was indeed very interested in this area because he liked snakes. Most people were afraid of them, but he had been interested in snakes since he was a child. He even almost turned to study biology, but ended up choosing chemistry by mistake.
All I can say is that a genius is worthy of being a genius. Even if he did not choose his favorite major, he still made outstanding achievements in his professional field.
Jiang Mi sighed in his heart, but still asked the question he wanted to know most.
"Can this snake be eaten?"
After asking the question, I felt that my question was a bit presumptuous. After all, the other person said that he was interested in snakes. Generally speaking, people should have some complex about snakes to some extent. If I rashly ask in front of him if he can eat it, Dr. Liu probably won't do it, right?
Jiang Mi was about to say something to make amends with a nervous heart, when he heard Liu Ji happily say, "Of course you can eat it. There is basically nothing that cannot be eaten when it comes to snakes. Just cut off the head and tail. Snake gallbladder is also a good thing. It is good for making wine and the cooking method is also simple."
Then he looked at Jiang Mi and asked with great interest: "Do you want to do it? Do you know how to do it? Do you want me to teach you?"
Jiang Mi: “…”
She was overthinking it.
"Don't you know how to cook?" Xing Shaoan couldn't help but ask.
Liu Ji was very confident, "I don't know how to cook it, but I have seen others cook it. What's the matter? Have you ever seen a pig run before eating pork? I still have a hundred ways to cook snake meat. Can I show them to you?"
Xing Shaoan: “…”
The two of them were silent for a moment, and Jiang Xun asked, "Does Dr. Liu know another creature——"
As he spoke, he described the wolf-like and tiger-like monster that Jiang Mi had described to him.
Liu Ji stroked his chin, frowned, and thought for a long time before hissing, "Hey, just from the description, why does this thing feel like something that appeared in the Classic of Mountains and Seas?"
Jiang Mi thought for a moment, Classic of Mountains and Seas?
"Really?" she asked quickly.
Liu Ji rolled his eyes at her and said, "Fake!"
Jiang Mi was not angry after being criticized. He smiled and continued to ask: "Is it really not in reality?"
Liu Ji began to ponder, pacing back and forth for a long time before hesitating and saying, "If it just looks like a wolf and a tiger, then it fits an extinct animal - the Tasmanian tiger. But you said it's covered with scales. Except for the pangolin, no other mammal has scales. I really can't find anything that fits this."
Having gained another little piece of knowledge, Jiang Mi sighed. He couldn't really ask her to read the Classic of Mountains and Seas, could he?
Besides, if the strange beasts in the Classic of Mountains and Seas really appeared in her space, that would be terrifying.
What are those things in the Classic of Mountains and Seas? Not to mention the dragons and phoenixes, just the Taotie and Pixiu are enough to make one's scalp tingle. She is a staunch materialist, and the Classic of Mountains and Seas is too fantastic when reflected in reality.
After pondering for a while without any result, Liu Ji looked at Jiang Xun curiously and asked, "Why? Where have you seen this kind of thing? Could it be a mutant?"
As he said this, he shook his head. Although mutants can indeed change their shape, just listening to the description and imagining it does not feel like a mutant. After all, the mutations of mutants are out of the scope of normal biological organisms.
Jiang Xun shook his head. "It's just that I've heard people talk about this kind of thing before, and I'm a little curious."
"Don't be curious, hurry up and cook. I'm starving. It just so happens that I have this two-headed snake. I'll try it tonight!" Liu Ji urged.
Jiang Mi could cook a little, but only a little, and she learned it after the end of her previous life. At that time, it was basically a hodgepodge, just putting whatever was available in the pot, and it could be said that she had almost no cooking skills, so she cast her eyes on Xing Shaoan beside her, and Liu Ji followed her gaze. Jiang Xun was even more single, so she turned around and went back to sit on the sofa.
Xing Shaoan: “…”
Sighing, Xing Shaoan took the snake with two fingers with a twisted look on his face and walked towards the kitchen in silence.
The three of them returned to the sofa and sat down. Liu Ji stretched comfortably and collapsed on the sofa. He glanced out of the corner of his eye and saw a pile of colorful fruits on the table. He thought it was some kind of fruit he had never seen before. He sat up and picked up one and put it in his mouth. While eating, he mumbled: "What kind of fruit is this? How come I have never seen it before? It's quite sweet, but it's... a little..."
Jiang Mi didn't even have time to stop it.
Before he could finish his sentence, Liu Ji fell on the sofa with his eyes rolling around and speaking incoherently.
"It's bad!" Jiang Mi slapped his thigh, anxiously rushed to Liu Ji and slapped his face, "Dr. Liu?! Dr. Liu? Wake up! Hello?!"
Liu Ji slapped his face until it was red from the highland, but he didn't wake the man up. Seeing that the man rolled his eyes, Jiang Mi panicked even more and shouted hurriedly, "Mr. Xing! Come quickly! Something happened!"
Jiang Xun, who was sitting on the side, also came over at this time, reached out and flipped over Liu Ji's eyelids to check his pupils, then felt the pulse at his neck, opened his mouth and looked at his oral cavity, frowning slightly.
Xing Shaoan had just dissected a snake. When he heard that something happened, he rushed over without even having time to wipe the blood off his hands. He was shocked to see Liu Ji rolling his eyes and looking unconscious. "What happened?"
"Dr. Liu ate a fruit on the table and this happened." Jiang Mi said with a guilty conscience.
She had been studying the two-headed snake just now and forgot to bring back these fruits. She didn't expect Liu Ji to be so greedy. He stuffed them into his mouth without asking. When she saw it, he had already swallowed it. There was no time for her to stop him.
"Don't panic, he looks a bit like he's drunk." Jiang Xun pulled his hand back and said calmly.
"Drunk...drunk?" Jiang Mi was stunned. She didn't smell any alcohol. How could that fruit make people drunk?
Thinking that the last thing she saw was Liu Ji eating a fruit that looked like a small tomato, Jiang Mi turned around and rummaged around on the table for a few times, and found one that was exactly the same. Jiang Xun took it from her and directly broke it open with her hands to reveal the inside. A sweet fragrance instantly filled the air, making everyone who smelled it feel a little bit dizzy.
You know what, this feels a bit like drinking.
Just hearing this, you can imagine how Liu Ji ate one.
Jiang Mi was still a little worried, so he turned to look at Xing Shaoan, "How is Dr. Liu's alcohol tolerance?"
Xing Shaoan had just finished checking Liu Ji and was relieved after confirming that his life was not in danger. Hearing Jiang Mi's question, he clicked his tongue, stretched out his little finger, and compared it with his fingernail, "That's it."
"White?" Jiang Mi understood, "Then he really can't drink much."
"Beer." Xing Shaoan tried not to laugh.
Jiang Mi: “……?”
So when will he wake up? (End of this chapter)
