Chapter 245 This must be indigestion!
Zhang Ruiping took his freshly baked grilled snacks and went to find other people.
Except for the ordinary man Danan Xihe who was a little scared of grilled scorpions and didn't dare to try it, and Jie Yuchen who was proud of his status and felt that eating insects did not fit his image, everyone else took a skewer.
In fact, Wuxie was a little hesitant to eat it, but he couldn't resist the two bad friends around him who kept persuading him.
Hei Xia Zi used provocation to tell him that if he was a man, he would just swallow it in one gulp. It was just a small scorpion, and since Zhang Ruiping had processed it and it could be served on the table, it must be non-venomous.
Even if there is... it's no big deal. No poison, no hero. Anyway, there are medical poison masters like Zhang Moyu and reliable elders of the Zhang family. At most, the stomach and taste buds will suffer a little. It will definitely not kill people.
Besides that, Hei Xia Zi also whispered a little gossip into Wu Xie's ear. He heard from his friends in the underworld that scorpions are particularly good for kidney health, and everyone who has eaten them says they are good...
Fatty Wang said that since they had already grilled the scorpions, it would be a shame for them not to try them. Besides, these things cost more than ten yuan a bunch in Yunnan, and they are also available in Xiangxi, so they are very expensive.
He had been to Yunnan once before and hadn't been willing to buy any of these because of the price. Of course, the main reason was that he didn't think the insects tasted good. The pragmatic Fatty figured that instead of wasting the money on a few strings of insects, he'd be better off buying some souvenirs.
Wuxie felt that what they both said made sense, and it was mainly what Hei Xia Zi said that touched him.
That’s right, this was something Zhang Ruiping had carefully crafted and put a lot of effort into. How could he waste other people’s kindness?
After overcoming the psychological barrier, Wuxie took a bite and found it crunchy. He unexpectedly found that it was quite delicious, salty and tasty. He finished it in a few bites just like eating a snack.
After finishing the meal, Wuxie still felt a little unsatisfied.
Well, I have to say, it smells really good!
I didn't feel anything after eating it. Everyone was in the car with the air conditioner on and playing with their phones. Except for the people who were on night watch, everyone else on Aning's side had already curled up in their sleeping bags and huddled together to keep out the cold of the night.
But five minutes later, Wuxie's stomach suddenly made a rumbling sound.
Wuxie could clearly feel his stomach and intestines churning, and then it became more and more uncomfortable.
Oh no! Could it be that the blind man was right? This scorpion wasn't cleaned properly and is poisonous?
"Brother Mo...my stomach hurts so much, come and see if I'm poisoned!"
Wuxie covered his stomach with one hand and rushed to Zhang Moyu with an uncomfortable look on his face, pushing Zhang Qiling, who was about to come over to whisper, aside.
Zhang Moyu felt a little puzzled when he heard that he suspected he was poisoned.
After taking his pulse, Zhang Moyu understood.
"It's okay, it's just a minor problem, a bit like indigestion. Just go to the bathroom a couple of times and it will be fine."
Ordinary people cannot digest even mild toxins, which causes gastrointestinal discomfort, which is equivalent to indigestion. This explanation is correct!
It must be the problem with Zhang Ruiping's grilled scorpions. When the plate of grilled scorpions was brought in front of him, Zhang Moyu just picked up a bunch at random without paying attention.
Now I think that Zhang Ruiping must have been careless when he caught them, and there were a few special species of scorpions mixed in. After being processed using ordinary methods, most of the toxins were removed, and the remaining bits and pieces could not cause any harm to the human body, so the stomach and intestines could not digest them, and the discomfort would pass after a while.
"Oh...I, then I..."
Wuxie's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and the hand that was originally touching his stomach had clenched into a fist. The urge to defecate was getting stronger and stronger, so he could only tighten his sphincter awkwardly and asked while holding his breath.
"Where do I go to the bathroom then?"
The RV has its own small toilet, but it is now full and there are no empty spaces.
Nan Xihe was using the small toilet in their RV, Wu Sanxing was defecating in the second RV, and Aning had just come over a little shyly to use the toilet in the third RV.
"Master, don't be so particular. Look outside. As long as you are thick-skinned enough, you can urinate and defecate anywhere."
Hei Xiazi came over with a smile and slapped Wu Xie on the shoulder, which instantly turned Wu Xie's face into an ugly pale color. His face was so distorted that everyone who saw it couldn't help but smile.
"Tian Zhen, you must hold it in. There are so many of us in this car. If we get on the car, Master Mo and Master Hua will kick you off directly."
Fatty Wang comforted Wuxie with no idea whether it was good or bad intentions. Wuxie's lips trembled, and he felt that they were all bullying him.
And everyone had eaten it, so why did he alone get into trouble?
This isn't fair! There must be something fishy going on!
"Why are you all okay?"
The Xiao Zhangs, who are immune to all poisons, remained silent and smiled without saying anything.
The black bear, who was tough and had been beaten countless times, smiled without saying a word, as his resistance was almost at its limit.
Although he had no poison resistance, Fatty Wang, who had a thick health bar, also smiled but... wait, his stomach seemed to be a little uncomfortable too.
At this time, Fatty Wang's stomach also made a gurgling sound, which was even louder than Wuxie's just now.
Fatty Wang sucked in a breath of cold air, also covered his stomach with one hand, and spoke with a grin.
"Hiss—oh no! Fatty got hit too!"
After saying this, Fatty Wang immediately stood up and got out of the car, ready to find a hill to vent his anger.
Wu Xie saw that Fatty Wang had gone from being a sarcastic bystander to being the victim of poisoning. Before he could even feel any gloating, his mind was completely absorbed by the churning in his stomach.
At that moment, he didn't care about anything else and followed Fatty Wang in small steps.
Wuxie walked quickly and awkwardly, tears streaming down her face in her heart. There was no need to gloat over this misfortune; it was just a matter of sympathy.
He swore that the next time he ate the food brought by Zhang Ruiping, he would be a dog!!!
On a small sand dune a few dozen meters away from where they were stationed, Fatty Wang and Wuxie squatted together in the leeward spot, performing a duet of running away from each other at a distance of several meters.
After tossing and turning outside for nearly half an hour, the two of them used up a roll of paper. Wuxie's legs were numb from squatting before he finally felt that he had recovered.
After having a pleasant bowel movement, Wuxie and Wang Pangzi, who were almost exhausted, felt weak all over, their legs and feet were numb, and their stomachs felt empty. They were really hungry, and their lips were dry and a little dehydrated, but they were not in the mood to eat.
The two men supported each other and returned to the car, both casting resentful glances at Zhang Ruiping.
Zhang Ruiping looked at them expressionlessly, feeling extremely innocent.
He felt that there was nothing wrong with the scorpion he had processed. When they were in the Zhang family's territory in Qinling Mountains, they handled those poisonous creatures in the same way, and he had never seen anyone in the family get hurt after eating them.
Besides, everyone else here was fine after eating it, except for these two.
Zhang Ruiping felt that these two people must have very weak physical constitutions and could not afford to be hurt by a weakling!
