Chapter 331: I'm Updating Again!
Ling Mo's words sound very reasonable, especially since his explanation of 'taste' is not based on the inherent properties of the food itself, but on the point of 'whether this food can bring positive feedback to the organism', which is even more ingenious. At first hearing, these may feel a little awkward and inconsistent with the common sense in life, but if you smack it carefully for a while, you can taste the beauty of this statement-
Taste is ultimately a form of sensation, based on the organ-senses of the organism, rather than on the food itself.
However, this statement can bluff the ragdoll bear, who can only experience the taste by database simulation, but it can't fool Zero, who has lived in the countryside since she was a child, picking up all kinds of wild vegetables and wild mushrooms, she frowned, carefully checked her memories from hundreds of years ago, and then said:
"Although this statement is true in most cases, I always feel that it is not so rigorous, such as bitter gourd, which tastes very bitter, but is actually more nutritious, isn't it? Moreover, I ate a lot of wild vegetables when I was a child, and they didn't taste very good, if I had obeyed the command of my body and didn't eat those wild vegetables, I would probably have starved to death......
"How can your body remember so much detailed information?" Hearing Zero's question, Ling Mo smiled and said, "It's just a matter of memorizing a general direction, there are indeed many plants, which are bitter and numb to eat, but they are good for the body." But you must know that these instincts, engraved in the genes, were handed down when human beings were still in ignorance. For people at that time, they couldn't tell that eating bitter melon was beneficial, but life experience taught them that eating these weird-tasting foods was risky, so they were put on the list of instinctive messages of "not tasty" and "better not to eat". ”
"There are two interesting sayings, namely 'good medicine is good for the disease' and 'medicine is poisonous', which seem to be opposites, but in fact, the core is not contradictory. The active ingredients of medicinal herbs are certainly good for the body, but the bitter taste you taste is the information accumulated by genes for thousands of years to warn you - hey, man, if you eat two bites, you will definitely hang when you eat it!"
This explanation made Zero more satisfied, she thought about it carefully, and then stopped speaking, just as Ling Mo squatted down, trying to find some useful parts from the two dead velociraptors, the Headless Horseman Kirtel suddenly asked:
"What about poisonous mushrooms? How do you explain poisonous mushrooms? Those mushrooms are more delicious than the other, and your body desperately tells you that this thing is delicious, and wants you to eat more, but if you really eat it, you will vomit and diarrhea at least, and at worst you will die on the spot! You can't even recognize this, and the discrimination function of genes is too weak, right?"
Seeing that several people turned their heads to look at him, the Headless Horseman asked a little strangely, "What's wrong?"
"No, it's not ......" Zero struggled for a moment, and then asked, "I would venture to ask, how do you know that poisonous mushrooms are more delicious than the other?"
"Because I died of eating poisonous mushrooms!" Kirtel's voice was very flat: "Before my death, my wife was a native of Yunbei of the Chana Empire, and she loved all kinds of wild mushrooms. I have to say that wild mushrooms are delicious, far from being comparable to shiitake mushrooms and enoki mushrooms. I was quickly conquered and became a loyal fan of wild mushrooms (dun, three voices) even more fanatical than my wife. Although I went to the hospital a few times in the middle, the most serious thing was only gastric lavage, which couldn't stop my love for wild mushrooms. ”
"The day my son turns five is my wife's thirtieth birthday and the anniversary of our six-year marriage. In order to surprise her, I prepared various gifts, as well as a very warm and romantic setting, one of the main dishes, which I personally selected as a soup made of wild mushrooms, which I tasted before cooking, and I almost swallowed my tongue when it was delicious. Then, the family of three had fun grabbing mushrooms to eat, and after about an hour, I found myself in the Land of Decay, a Headless Horseman. ”
Zero, Ragdoll Bear: "......"
"Hey, what's your expression?" said the Headless Horseman Kirtel, spreading his hands, "Do you think that all the ghosts in the Land of Decay have a touching story behind them?" No, not at all, but on the contrary, more than 99% of the ghosts, like me, did not know what they had done in their lives, and as soon as their eyes were closed and opened, they came here inexplicably. ”
The Ragdoll Bear didn't hide it, and asked directly: "It shouldn't be my delusion, right? I feel that when you talk about the death of your wife and children, you don't seem to have any regrets or remorse, as if you are narrating a very ordinary thing?"
"I didn't have any regrets or pain. The Headless Horseman Curtel spoke in astonishment, and then he pointed to Zero, saying, "Not every ghost creature is as powerful or lucky as this saint to retain the structure of his life's thoughts. After I was reborn as the Headless Horseman, although I could still recall my previous me, those memories were more like watching a movie and watching someone else's story for the new 'me', and there was no sense of substitution at all. When I saw the woman and child who fell to the ground and convulsed in pain, my heart was not shocked, and I even had a boring feeling of 'ah, how long have they been struggling, and how have they not been poisoned'. ”
"Yes, yes, yes, this is what I want to inquire about!" Hearing Kirtle's words, the Ragdoll Bear's eyes lit up, clapped his hands and said hurriedly: "This phenomenon on the natural monster is amazing! Obviously it is still the same set of memories, or the same person, why do they come to completely different experiences and conclusions in their thinking? This is completely unscientific! If it is our mechanical monster, it doesn't matter whether we use the system of window seven or window ten, as long as the hard disk file does not change, it will still execute exactly the same result in the end!"
"I don't know, you can figure it out for yourself. Being regarded as a research object, Kirtel didn't get angry at all, but just turned to Ling Mo and asked again, "Ling... According to your theory, the body should be able to distinguish poisonous mushrooms, or if poisonous mushrooms fall into the mouth, they should be very bitter and difficult to eat, right?"
"Asking this kind of question means that you don't know what a mushroom is, and you have made a common sense mistake of treating the mushrooms one by one as a whole. Ling Mo pulled out the heart of the velociraptor without changing his face, slowly put it into his mouth, and explained at the same time:
"In fact, the part of the mushroom that grows on the ground only accounts for less than one-tenth of the overall structure, and the underground part is composed of countless mycelium that are thinner than a hair, and the longest of these hyphae can even extend to tens of meters away! In other words, you usually think you eat mushrooms, but in fact, what you eat is just mushrooms. ”
"In other words, every time we eat mushrooms, we give the mushrooms a mouth*?" Knowing what Ling Mo meant, the muscles on the Ragdoll Bear's face twitched, and then asked, "Although this statement is a bit ...... It's not exquisite, but what does it have to do with whether the mushrooms are delicious or not?"
"Since it is a reproductive organ, it is natural that in order to synthesize spores, various necessary components are indispensable. The content of sugar, protein and cholesterol is extremely high, among which sugar corresponds to sweetness, protein corresponds to umami, and cholesterol corresponds to oil flavor. In terms of ingredients, the reproductive organs of mushrooms are a gift package of monosodium glutamate, amino acids, and soluble sugar! The flavor of each wild mushroom comes from a random combination of a variety of amino acids, plus soluble sugar, and even a random fusion of various trace element flavors, the complexity is comparable to DNA sequences, and in terms of taste, wild mushrooms are several times better than ordinary mushrooms, dozens of times!"
Ling Mo's words, the saliva of the Ragdoll Bear was half a foot long, and it was a little disgusting to fall to the ground, but the few people present didn't have the heart to laugh at the Ragdoll Bear, because they were no better than the Ragdoll Bear, as Ling Mo spoke, his tongue was full of words, and his throat couldn't help swallowing, and a ridiculous idea of 'it's worth dying for eating wild mushrooms' actually arose in his mind.
Soon, Ling Mo poured cold water on a few of them: "The most basic elements of the survival of living organisms, mushrooms are all possessed, in the most primitive taste organs, sugar plus amino acids and fat are equal to 'delicious', therefore, almost all mushrooms, in the taste system, are defined as 'delicious'!"
It's a pity that the types of amino acids and sterols that make up mushrooms are too complex, and among the tens of thousands of different combinations, only less than one-tenth can be absorbed by the human body; more than seventy percent are 'harmless to eat, but they can't be absorbed'; and another two percent are highly toxic to the human body, and eating them will kill them, which is very neat!"
"I see! It seems that our family died unjustly. After quietly listening to Ling Mo's explanation, Kirtel sighed and then fell silent, never having any more meaning to communicate. Zero stared thoughtfully at this former compatriot, watching his performance, obviously, this guy said that his family was just a movie, but in his heart he couldn't do it so freely in his words.
In contrast, the Ragdoll Bear was much more heartless, and after listening to Ling Mo's explanation, this guy's eyes gurgled, and he suddenly asked: "Listening to Teacher Ling's meaning, in fact, it means that the taste of each mushroom is different, and each has its own deliciousness, but because the natural monster body cannot absorb it, it can only pick a few mild mushrooms to eat?"
"That's the truth. ”
"That's great! I'm a mechanical monster, no matter how poisonous those poisonous mushrooms are, they can't poison me, so I can eat them as much as I want?!" The Ragdoll Bear suddenly became excited, and shouted: "In this case, I want to eat all the mushrooms in the world, accurately record the taste of every mushroom, and write a mushroom encyclopedia that is even more comprehensive than the "Divine *Ben*Sutra"! Isn't it double happiness to satisfy the appetite and make achievements?"
Regarding the ambition of the ragdoll bear, Ling Mo raised his thumb and instigated: "This action is very meaningful! In the process of searching for all kinds of mushrooms all over the world, you will definitely experience all kinds of things, and you will definitely gain a lot! When you really become famous, you will be honored as the little prince of mushrooms...... No, you might be called King Kuba!"
It was rare to hear a compliment from Ling Mo's mouth, the ragdoll bear laughed so much that his mouth was almost grinning to the back of his head, and he fell into delusion, after a while, the beautiful meaning was yin, the ragdoll bear's gaze accidentally swept over the zero, and suddenly seemed to be inspired, and after thinking about it for a while, he sneakily came to Ling Mo's side, and quietly asked in his ear:
"Teacher Ling, Teacher Ling! I remember you said that many of the current members of the Obedience Sect, including their current saints, have not all been transformed into mushrooms? If they can form fungi that are superior to the human body, wouldn't the structure of those mushrooms be more complicated? Wouldn't the amino acid arrangements be more varied? Wouldn't the taste be even more incredible? I just want to ask Teacher Ling if you have any experience, what does this Obedience Sect member taste like? Shiitake mushrooms, enoki mushrooms, chicken leg mushrooms, can't it be Ma Bo mushrooms, right?"
"......" didn't expect the Ragdoll Bear's thinking to be so clear, Ling Mo was stunned, and then replied with some stomach pain: "This, I really don't know." ”
The Ragdoll Bear said disappointedly, "Aren't you like the sea of enemies with the Obedience Sect?
"Nope. ”
"This can be there. ”
"Not really. ”
"Then that's it, doesn't it mean that there are also a few strongholds of the obedience sect in Raccoon City?" the ragdoll smacked his lips and suggested, "Let's rush in and have a good time, how about catching a few mushroom people and steaming them by the way?" The meat is absolutely tender and delicious! Speaking of fighting, I think of fighting...... Start-up next year...... The two flowering ...... of stylistics"
"That's enough!" Zero's angry voice sounded, interrupting the Ragdoll's intentions, and then she stared at the Ragdoll and said word by word: "No matter what happens to those obedient disciples, they are human beings after all! I will never allow you to eat people in front of me, if you dare to do so, I will kill you immediately and disassemble you into parts! I don't care about the Golden Fortress, it's not that it hasn't been blown up!"
Being murdered by Zero, the Ragdoll Bear shrunk his neck, didn't dare to reply, just looked at Ling Mo with a pitiful distress look, Ling Mo didn't bother to pay attention to the other party at all, just casually changed the topic: "Mushrooms or mushroom people, you can watch and eat by yourself when you have time in the future, in this Jurassic forest, if you want to eat a good meal, you still have to rely on the creatures swimming in the river." Just now I saw a herd of pterosaurs hovering over the river, which means there must be a delicious meal down there! Let's go, it's too late to catch up!"
