Chapter 14: The Smell of Poppy
Nan Zhiqiao rolled another duck meat roll and handed it to You Kexin, but Kexin was not polite, took it, said thank you, and stuffed it into his mouth. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
After eating, I didn't forget to comment on the duck meat rolls, "The skin is crispy and the meat is tender, with the fragrance of apple wood, with shredded green onions and cucumber strips, it is good to clear the mouth and relieve greasy." ”
More than ten minutes later, the duck rack winter melon soup was served.
Nan Zhiqiao took a spoon and put two bowls of duck soup, one bowl in front of Ye Zhenzhen, and one bowl in front of You Kexin.
You Kexin looked at the duck soup in front of him, then looked at Nan Zhiqiao and Ye Zhenzhen, smiled slyly on his face, and said: "Senior Nan is really considerate, with a good personality, handsome people, and strong work ability, he is a young god in our biological academic world, and I don't know who has the blessing to be able to make a pair with our great god in the future." ”
Listening to Ke Xin's words, Ye Zhenzhen immediately became vigilant, this Ke Xin, won't she make fun of herself and Nan Zhiqiao again, right? The two of them talked about it in private, and now, Nan Zhiqiao is in front of her, this kind of joke can't be made, otherwise, it will embarrass the dead.
You Kexin looked at Ye Zhenzhen again, only to see that Zhenzhen's face was red, I don't know if it was because of the heat of eating, or because of shyness.
Ke Xin deliberately ignored Zhen Zhen's embarrassment, and pretended not to care and asked Nan Zhiqiao, "Senior Nan, do you have a girlfriend now?"
"Not now. Nan Zhiqiao replied calmly.
Ye Zhenzhen breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably in her heart.
However, within two seconds, I heard Nan Zhiqiao say slowly: "But it should be soon, fate has arrived, so naturally we must grasp it." ”
Zhen Zhen and Ke Xin were both stunned, what does this "should be soon" mean? Could it be that Nan Zhiqiao has a goal?
Both of them looked at Nan Zhiqiao, who slowly drank the duck soup without any intention of continuing to explain.
Zhen Zhen's heart rose again, but it was not easy for her heart to continue to ask.
You Kexin shook his head, drank the duck soup in the bowl, and filled another bowl for himself.
In the big bowl of duck soup that Kexin filled for herself, there was a duck bone, and a little duck meat was attached to the duck bone, Kexin took out the duck bone, and after gnawing it, in addition to the soup, there was also an oval-shaped plant shell in the bowl, which looked like some kind of condiment.
Kexin used chopsticks to take out the oval plant shell, put it on the empty plate in front of him, looked at it twice, and sighed: "Such a big seasoning fruit, after picking it out, the duck soup in the bowl is less than half, what kind of condiment is this, I haven't seen it before." ”
You Kexin looked at the oval plant shell and observed it for a long time, but he didn't understand what kind of condiment this plant shell was.
"Zhen Zhen, look, what kind of condiment is this, I don't know, your father is a chef and an expert in condiments, you know a little about it, right?" You Kexin asked, pointing to the oval-shaped plant shell in front of him.
Ye Zhenzhen turned her head sideways and looked at it, a little familiar, but she couldn't remember its name for a while.
Zhen Zhen used chopsticks to clip the seasoned husk of unknown name onto the plate in front of her, carefully put it down, and observed it carefully.
I saw that the shell fished out of the duck soup was oval, after being soaked in the duck soup, it was somewhat broken, but the overall shape was still clearly visible, the shell was light brown on the outside, smooth, with longitudinal cut marks, and there were more than ten residual stigma arranged radially in the shape of a disc at the top, and there was a short stalk at the base.
It looks very familiar in appearance, and Zhen Zhen lowered her head and sniffed closely, with a faint fragrance.
Then I dipped the soup in the shell with chopsticks and tasted it slightly with the tip of my tongue, and the taste was slightly bitter.
Ye Zhenzhen's brows suddenly furrowed, and she exclaimed, "This is a poppy shell!"
"Poppy husks, what's that?" You Ke asked when he saw Zhen Zhen's expression and knew that it was definitely not a good thing.
Zhen Zhen's father is a chef, and he has taught Zhen Zhen some ways to identify condiments, among them, there are some things that are forbidden to be used for seasoning, one of which is poppy husks, back then, Zhen Zhen's father once warned Zhen Zhen that if poppy husks are found in food, they must not be edible, so Zhen Zhen was particularly impressed by this poppy husk, but she didn't expect to encounter it today.
Zhen Zhen began to explain: "The poppy husk, also known as the 'rice husk', commonly known as the 'rice husk', is the dried and ripe fruit shell of the plant poppy. In autumn, the ripe fruit that has been cut from the pulp is plucked, broken, the seeds and branches are removed, and after drying, poppy husks are made. ”
You Ke was shocked and asked, "The plant poppy?" is the opium poppy that is used to extract drugs?"
"Well, that's it. ”
"No, can poppy husks be used as condiments?" asked You Ke incredulously.
"Of course not, there are clear provisions in our laws that prohibit the addition of poppy husks to food, and prohibit the illegal supply, transportation and use of poppy husks. We have now found poppy shells in the duck soup, indicating that this Liang Kee restaurant uses illegal condiments, which has constituted a crime. ”
Ke Xin shook his head and said nervously: "I don't care if they break the law in Liang Ji Restaurant, what I care about now is that we drink duck soup with poppy shells, will there be anything wrong? poppy shells, this is a drug!"
"Poppy husks, which have certain medicinal functions, belong to the controlled varieties of narcotic drugs. Compared with opium and heroin, although the toxic substances in the poppy husk are not large and the purity is not high, for the 'hermit', eating poppy husks does not play a big role, but it has a great impact on the vast majority of people who have never been exposed to drugs, especially those who are highly sensitive to drugs. ”
"What's the impact?" Ke Xin asked.
"After eating, ordinary people will have a more or less light feeling, which is manifested physiologically, some people may have a slightly red face, some people may have a rapid heartbeat, some people may be prone to dozing, and some people may not be able to fall asleep easily. If you eat food with poppy husks added for a long time, it will also produce a certain degree of dependence, and there will be symptoms such as stunned, sweating, fatigue, yellow muscles and thin muscles, and in severe cases, it may cause damage to the nervous system and digestive system, and even endocrine disorders and other symptoms, and eventually become addicted, with a potential tendency to take drugs, and the consequences are very serious. ”
You Kexin's originally reddish face turned pale for a while, and he asked in a trembling voice: "Is it so serious? I'm still recovering from radiation sickness, so there won't be any problems, right?"
Zhen Zhen hurriedly comforted and said, "We ate it once, and the amount of contact is not much, it's fine." ”
After listening to Zhen Zhen's comforting words, Ke Xin's face softened a lot, and at the same time pushed the duck soup in front of him aside, and muttered, "I will never drink duck soup again." ”
Ye Zhenzhen: "Duck soup is right, what is wrong is that these black-hearted merchants, in order to make money, actually add medicine as a condiment to food." ”
