Chapter 11: Gluttony in the Stomach
Tang Muzhou asked me to show the strange "rice grains", and he told me with certainty that it was a kind of insect egg.
Hearing this, and looking at the yellow liquid between his two fingers, it really doesn't look like a grain of rice.
Tang Muzhou said that this thing was found in Ou Fang's refrigerator.
It turned out that when I heard movement in the master bedroom and went to check, Tang Muzhou saw Mei Mei signaling to him, he asked the child what was wrong, Mei Mei didn't speak, just stretched out her hand and pointed to the refrigerator next to the dining table.
Ou Fang's kitchen is a bit narrow, and the refrigerator can only be placed in the dining room.
When he opened the refrigerator, Tang Muzhou saw that the things inside, not enough, were some very ordinary things.
Milk, fruits, and so on, every household has it.
Seeing that there was nothing special, just as Tang Muzhou was about to close the refrigerator door, he suddenly heard a small sound.
The sound, like something, scurrying around in the sand.
It's fine, but it's obvious.
Tang Muzhou checked it carefully again, and he found that in the second compartment of the refrigerator fresh-keeping layer, there was a small clay jar.
That thing is dark brown, and judging by its craftsmanship, it should be handmade.
Tang Muzhou gently took it out and put his ear on it to listen.
Sure enough, those rustling sounds came from inside.
He glanced over to the kitchen, where the hostess Ou Fang was still cooking the sauerkraut fish, her back was straight and she was very skillful in cooking.
Gently opening the clay lid, Tang Muzhou saw that most of the jar was filled with white rice grains.
Those tiny grains of rice were moving gently, Tang Muzhou reached in and probed, only to see a huge, index finger-thick thing, showing out of the rice grains.
Then, it scurried into the grains of rice.
That thing was the same bug I showed him on my phone earlier.
At this moment, the sound of the range hood in the kitchen disappeared, and Ou Fang's fish dish should have been ready.
Tang Muzhou hurriedly grabbed a handful of those rice grains and put them in his pocket, and then put the clay jar back.
Turning around and walking to Mei Mei's side, he asked the child gently:
"That thing, do you know what it is?"
Mei Mei pointed to the rice cooker on the side table again, Tang Muzhou looked at it, and was about to say something.
At this moment, Ou Fang came out of the kitchen with the fish.
Hearing this, I still feel inexplicable.
I simply asked him: "Tang Muzhou, tell me directly, what the hell is going on, okay?" ”
Tang Muzhou got up, he opened the table with mineral water.
After taking a big sip, he said, "The book says that this thing is called tape lice." ”
The book? "Autumn Moon Eclipse List"?
"Didn't you say that "Autumn Moon Eclipse List" was scribbled? How do you again? ”
"Don't interrupt!" He glared at me, his brow furrowed, and after taking a breath, he said, "Before that, I thought it was all fake, until I really found out about the existence of that thing in Ou Fang's refrigerator......"
"That thing? Are you the worm in the jar? ”
"That's right, the "Autumn Moon Eclipse List" says that the tape lice are just its eggs, and the name of this thing is called gluttonous insects!"
"Gluttony?"
Tang Muzhou's expression was grim, and he said that the book described gluttony as follows:
Gluttony is a kind of insect in the deep mountains of the southwest border, this kind of insect originally grew in the dead canopy, after being picked by sorcerers, put into the stomach of the dying person, after sucking the gastric juice, and then cut the person's stomach, and took the worm out of the stomach.
The eggs produced by this insect are called tapeworms.
The appearance of the tape lice is not much different from the grain of rice.
After being mixed in rice grains to cast into rice grains, not only will the tapeworms not die, but the high temperature of 100 degrees will raise their activity value to the highest.
After eating this grain of rice mixed with tape lice, the eggs will begin to hatch in the stomach.
However, they are not digested with other foods.
The body of the larvae will be tightly entrenched in the stomach wall, and at a very fast speed, it will become one with it.
Acidic gastric juice is the best breeding ground for them. When they break out of their shells, they remember the taste of the first bite of food they tasted.
After that, anything else can no longer be integrated.
And this is also the most terrifying part of it.
In other words, people who have eaten tape lice by mistake can only eat the same kind of food forever in this life, and they can't swallow anything else.
After listening to Tang Muzhou's narration, I was so frightened that I broke out in a cold sweat.
I looked down at those tapeworms, and then raised my eyes to look at Tang Muzhou: "You mean, Hu Dan, eat these tape lice?" ”
Tang Muzhou nodded:
"The photo taken by the female nurse is obviously a gluttonous worm, Hu Dan also had the same symptoms after eating chicken offal noodles last night, and when you were cleaning up the filth, you also found a gluttonous worm in his vomit."
I felt a chill in my back: "So, this worm will spit out of Hu Dan's mouth?" ”
"That's right, if what is written in "Autumn Moon Food List" is true, then Hu Dan's stomach wall should have been covered with those gluttonous insects, except for the sauerkraut fish made by Ou Fang, he can't eat any other food."
Hearing this, I don't know if it's nauseous or what it feels like.
I always feel like there are thousands of worms in my stomach, constantly wriggling.
Seeing that I was uncomfortable, Tang Muzhou comforted me and said:
"Don't worry about that, we'll be fine. Ou Fang just used the gluttonous worm to control Hu Dan. We have no grudges against her, and she can't harm us. Besides, we didn't eat rice today, and the tape lice didn't have a chance to get into our stomachs. “
Even though I heard him say that, I still felt uncomfortable.
I ran to the bathroom and threw up for a while before I came out again.
I said to Tang Muzhou: "I don't want to get involved in this kind of triangular relationship at all, Hu Dan also deserves it, and he is still messing around outside with his wife, which is also karma." It's just that I'm thinking now about how to get Meimei back, put her in that environment, something will happen.
When I thought of this, I suddenly realized a serious problem:
"Tang Muzhou, do you say Meimei has ......?"
This question is indeed very specific.
Mei Mei lives with them and eats the same thing every day.
She's only so young, and it has nothing to do with her from beginning to end, and if she also has a craving in her body, then my sin will be great.
I told Tang Muzhou about this, and said I couldn't ignore it.
Needless to say, you must find a way to get Mei Mei out.
Tang Muzhou saw that I had been insisting, and he said: "If you want to get Meimei out, it must be useless to call the police, if you don't get it right, you will be stopped to see Meimei, after all, you have nothing to do with that child." ”
"So what should I do?"
Tang Muzhou thought for a while: "In this matter, I can only let Hu Dan come forward." ”
