Chapter 147 Rabbit Experiment
Among all plant toxins, the most representative are various fungi.
There is never a shortage of various fungi in the jungle. Many people's understanding of fungi is still at the level of "as long as you don't pick brightly colored ones." Influenced by some film and television works, they think that eating mushrooms during picnics is a normal thing.
Little do people know that there are many different types of fungi in the wild, many of which are species that people have never seen before, and you can easily step on a landmine if you are not careful.
Even in southern China, provinces where people often eat mushrooms, there are many cases of food poisoning every year due to accidentally eating poisonous mushrooms.
It is inevitable that people who have been familiar with fungi for many years would make mistakes, let alone in this unfamiliar wilderness and animal world?
This is also the reason why Xia Tian has been avoiding eating mushrooms since she traveled through time.
For non-fungal plants like blue wisteria, the situation is even more problematic.
Plant toxins include non-protein amino acids, peptides, proteins, alkaloids and glycosides, which are complicated enough to talk about, and even more difficult to distinguish.
In practice, if classification is required, it is only necessary to determine whether it is toxic and whether it can be inactivated by conventional high temperature.
Xia Tian used a stone knife to peel the rhizome of the "purple sweet potato", cut it into pieces and divided it into two parts. One fresh part was left alone, and the other was boiled in water for half an hour, then taken out and drained. It was ready.
I have to say, she was right to call this rhizome "purple sweet potato".
The roots of Wisteria not only look exactly like purple sweet potatoes, but also have the same crispy and slightly astringent feeling when cut.
It also has the unique property of changing from being crispy to being soft and dense after being cooked. Apart from the different vines, it is really hard to find any other differences.
At this time, Si Ye came in holding a rabbit's ear in one hand.
One has gray hair and the other has brown hair. They both look like adults and there is not much difference between them except for their fur color and body shape.
When they reached the cave entrance, he loosened his grip and the two rabbits escaped from the man's "claws".
But as soon as he landed, he seemed to be under a spell of immobilization, lying on the ground and not daring to move.
It looks both pitiful and funny.
Xia Tian looked at the scene in front of her and found a word in the original owner's memory - blood suppression.
Bloodline suppression is the coercion and control of lower-level bloodlines by higher-level bloodlines.
For example, the rabbits now, although they have actually escaped Si Ye's control physically, they have not escaped the predator's mental control, so they cannot control their bodies independently and can only squat on the ground and "tremble".
[Letting a snow leopard use bloodline suppression on a rabbit is a bit of an overkill, hahaha]
[I think the rabbit is pitiful, funny, and a little cute]
[The rabbits who were unfortunately chosen for the experiment...]
The rabbits have been caught, so Xia Tian doesn't need to waste any more time. She feeds the gray rabbit with freshly cut rhizomes and the brown-haired one with cooked rhizomes, and puts the two together. Since she is not worried about them escaping, she just needs to wait patiently for a day and a night to know the result.
It was afternoon and there was still some time before dark. She did not waste time, but found the dried thatch she had brought back from the depression over there and began to weave a straw mat for Si Ye's bed.
Si Ye looked at the two rabbits, both of which were jumping around lively. Curiously, he picked one up and held it in his hands to observe. "They're still jumping around, does that mean they're not poisonous?"
