Chapter 50 Delicious to Death
Fortunately, everything went well! Both mother and daughter were safe and sound and opened their eyes.
The girl hugged her father and couldn't stop crying.
She said that in her dream, she was trapped in a bed and there were many bloody hands under the bed trying to reach up and grab her.
They left blood-red marks on the side of the white bed sheet...
She curled up in bed, not daring to move, and kept screaming and calling for help.
But there was nothing around, not even a sound responding to her.
She fainted several times from shock, but every time she woke up, she was still trapped in that bed...
Not long ago, an old lady appeared on the ground a little distance away from the bed.
Gray hair and wet white clothes stuck to his thin body.
She crawled slowly on all fours towards the end of the bed, looking very weak.
The girl thought she had found a human being who shared the same suffering as her, and she called out to the old lady loudly.
The next second, the old lady raised her head suddenly...
Because the movement was too big, a bloody eyeball was thrown directly to the ground with a click.
Like a mouthful of old phlegm.
The girl clearly saw that several maggots crawled out of the eye socket where the eyeball was gone and slipped into the old woman's gray hair...
A pale, dry old face like a fossil appeared in front of the girl.
The corners of its mouth rose to its cheekbones, forming a strange arc, but there were no teeth under its lips, and instead the white bones of its face were visible.
And its other eyeball was actually moving 360 degrees up and down, left and right, forward and backward, as if it was looking for its fallen eyeball...
The girl screamed at her to go away.
But the old lady couldn't hear it and was groping on the ground looking for its eyeballs.
It was not until it touched the soft thing that it calmly picked it up from the ground and put it back into its eye socket!
Then she looked at the girl with her unfocused eyes.
This time, her crawling speed suddenly increased, and her limbs were like clockwork, rushing towards the end of the girl's bed...
The girl backed away desperately, leaning against the headboard.
The old lady crawled to the end of her bed, but couldn't get on.
Its eyes suddenly rolled, and it placed its right hand, which was as black as a braised chicken claw, on the bed.
Then the hand, as if possessing a mind of its own, stood up and began to crawl rapidly forward.
Wherever it passed, the white sheets became wet, and then slowly spread to the surroundings.
The girl then realized that it was not a water stain, but a kind of mucus, like the mucus on a slug.
The old lady's body was still in the same place, blocked at the end of the bed, but her arms were infinitely stretched out.
He let his fingers rush to the girl's feet and was about to grab her feet...
Then, she opened her eyes!
After listening to his precious daughter's story about the dreams she had during her two days in a coma, the old father also cried.
He remembered that there was indeed a water ghost old lady outside the window. Not only did he see her, he also recognized her!
That was the old mother of the Gao family in their village who died two years ago.
Because the son was unfilial, his mother worked hard all her life to find a wife for him.
Within a month, he drove his mother to live in a shed next to the small building.
My mother had difficulty walking, and in the dark at night, she went to the village public toilet to use the restroom. As a result, she fell into the pit and drowned...
The son felt unlucky and was afraid of being criticized, so he left the village and went out to work with his wife.
There has been no news of him for many years, and he has never returned to the village. In short, there are all kinds of rumors in the village.
The girl’s mother also dreamed of a similar scene, being trapped in one place for two whole days!
If it had been just a little later, the consequences would have been unimaginable!
With a thud, the girl and her mother knelt on the ground in front of Xiao Huang.
"You...don't do this!"
The first time I saw a doctor and gave him an acupuncture injection independently, I was thanked for my first success, but the way I got thanked was by kneeling down...
Xiao Huang was at a loss, he looked to Mu Jiu for help!
Mu Jiu just gave him a satisfied smile and congratulated him on his successful assessment!
The girl's family gathered around, "Thank you, doctor! Thank you so much! Without you, our family would have fallen apart!"
Let us kowtow three times to you, the miracle doctor, to thank you for saving our lives!"
Mu Jiu didn't let them kowtow for real. Before the first kowtow, he said:
"Your benefactor doesn't want you to kowtow to him. He is still young, a junior, and being kowtowed to by an elder would shorten his lifespan.
He actually just wants to stay overnight in your village ancestral hall and take some fish from the pond as dry food!"
As soon as Mu Jiu said this, the whole family looked at Xiao Huang.
Xiao Huang smiled bitterly and nodded - Master, please be more tactful and don't make this request so bluntly!
The girl's father quickly reacted, "Grab it! As long as the benefactor wants it, take as much as he wants! Take it all away!"
Anyway, everyone in the village is dead, and this fish pond has no owner!
The girl's mother also quickly chimed in, "Yes, yes, yes! We have several fish ponds nearby, and we raise tens of thousands of pufferfish."
The meat of this puffer fish is a hundred times more tender and delicious than ordinary fish. I guarantee that after trying it once, you will never want to eat any other species!
It just so happens that my son knows how to cook puffer fish, and he learned it from the best chef in the village.
Or let him cook a puffer fish feast himself to treat everyone!"
Xiao Huang scratched his head and looked at Mu Jiu, asking for her opinion.
Mu Jiu made the decision for everyone.
"Thank you for your kindness. We won't be eating the puffer fish feast. Our people have already prepared lunch. Let's all come and have some."
Mu Jiu is a person who cherishes life. She doesn't like to gamble her life to enjoy delicious food.
The strangeness of the apocalypse didn't take her life, but if she burped over the pufferfish poison that wasn't completely cleared away, it would be a real loss.
Having said that, he asked everyone to help set the table and prepare tableware, using locally available materials so as not to show off his wealth in front of outsiders!
"Master, have you ever eaten puffer fish?" Xiao Huang followed Mu Jiu to serve the plate and asked casually.
"No, but I have studied tetrodotoxin."
Xiao Huang was choked by Mu Jiu's words, and after a long pause, he continued:
"Master, aren't you curious about what the legendary most delicious fish tastes like?"
Mu Jiu turned his head to look at Xiao Huang, raised his eyebrows and replied:
“Mild symptoms include nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain and diarrhea.
If it is infected, it will cause nerve paralysis and muscle weakness.
In severe cases, breathing difficulties and a sudden drop in blood pressure may occur, and the patient may eventually die from respiratory and reflux failure.
In a nutshell, it’s to die for! ”
Little Yellow...
"Okay, I know you're a foodie, but this is the end of the world, so even if you're curious, hold it back.
What if that guy is a trainee? He's risking all of our lives!"
Xiao Huang pouted and said, "I'm also an intern!"
Mu Jiu stretched out a hand and stood on tiptoe to touch her big head.
“You have a master here who can help you out if something goes wrong!
He's just a kid, if anything goes wrong, we'll all be in trouble together!"
