Chapter 149 Hot and sour melon shreds

He has also heard about the poisonous soil melon. He heard that an old couple was poisoned to death, and another family was also poisoned by eating soil melon, but fortunately they were rescued and saved their lives. Dare to eat.

Meng Nan looked up at Bai Zhi, and asked, "Do you know that soil melons are poisonous?"

Bai Zhi got up, went to the potato basket and rummaged through it. From the basket, she found a potato that had sprouted, a potato that was turning green and about to sprout, and a fresh and smooth potato. The potatoes were put on the table together.

"Look, my lord. Although these three melons are all melons, not all of them can be eaten. The melons that have sprouted are poisonous and cannot be eaten. The melons that have turned green are also poisonous. I can’t eat it, but this fresh and beautiful earth melon is a delicacy, and the one on this plate is made of this earth melon.”

Meng Nan was puzzled: "Why do soil melons that germinate become poisonous? What is the reason for this?"

If she said that potatoes produced a lot of solanine during the sprouting process, would he understand?

She organized her words slightly, and said slowly: "Because potatoes will produce some toxins during the germination process. In mild cases, the poisoning may cause vomiting, diarrhea, dizziness and headache, and in severe cases, it may cause shortness of breath and even death."

Meng Nan said: "Since you know that this soil melon can turn into poison, if you don't eat it, you will die, why take this risk?"

Bai Zhi said: "Everything has its two sides. If the medicine for healing and saving lives is not used properly, it may also become a poison that kills people. The key is not whether the thing is poisonous, but whether the person who uses it is good at using it. .”

Meng Nan suddenly realized that, for example, a knife, in the eyes of some people, is a knife for cutting vegetables and cooking, but in the eyes of some people, it is a sharp weapon that may kill people. The key between good and evil lies in the person who uses things. Those with good intentions can use anything to save people. Those with evil intentions will use them to kill people.

Meng Nan bowed his hands to Bai Zhi: "You have been taught." After saying that, he stretched out his chopsticks to pick up the shredded soil and melon, but there was only one left on the plate. . .

When he was discussing poison and medicine with Bai Zhi, Hu Feng and Jin Shiwei didn't stop their chopsticks.

He glared at Guard Jin: "Didn't you say that it's poisonous and you can't eat it? What kind of ghost is it now?"

The golden guard chuckled, "I'll eat such a delicious food even if it's poisonous." Originally, he planned to help the young master taste it, but he couldn't stop tasting it. . .

Eat and eat and finish. . . .

He glared at Hu Feng again: "Hey, Miss Bai hasn't eaten yet, you just ate all the food, isn't it too uneducated?"

Hu Feng slowly put down the chopsticks in his hand, gracefully took a cloth towel beside him to wipe the corners of his lips, and said softly: "She has already eaten."

Meng Nan looked at Bai Zhi again, Bai Zhi nodded quickly: "Yes, I have already eaten, because I have something to do later, so I ate early."

Meng Nan looked at the two empty plates on the table. He only tasted a chopstick of shredded soil and melon, and he didn't even taste a chopstick of fungus before—no——

I ran thirty miles hungry, did I come here just to drink porridge?
Seeing Meng Nan's aggrieved face, she wanted to laugh, but she couldn't bear it, so she said, "Why don't you stay for lunch, there is still a handful of leeks from yesterday's purchase, let's wrap another one today Eat dumplings."
