Forty-eighth palm: Hold a kitchen knife in your hand and chop it up
The Bible says that salt is pure and demons are filthy.
Therefore, most religions in the West believe that the purer the thing, the more evil spirits will be warded, and salt water is the purest thing after holy water.
Although there is no such record in the "Autumn Moon Eclipse List", it mentions one point:
Salt cleanses the world of filth.
Chef Zheng is not a "zombie".
He wasn't afraid of the sun, but of the kimchi water that was sprinkled on the ground.
Kimchi water, which contains a lot of table salt. Liang Yuan knocked over the box on the ground, and the kimchi water that surrounded the city blocked Chef Zheng, making him dare not step forward.
So when I stepped out of the kitchen again, I saw that he had been grabbing Liang Yuan's clothes in the corner and tearing them back and forth.
When I was in school, my biology teacher once said that salt can make the pressure imbalance between the inside and outside of the cell to achieve the purpose of sterilization, bacteria cannot survive in a high-salt environment, and salted things can be preserved without mold.
It is probably because salt water has a certain bactericidal and anti-inflammatory effect, and in the past, inflammation or something was considered to be caused by evil spirits, so it gradually developed into salt to drive away evil spirits
Therefore, salt was thus mythologized in the age of obscurantism.
When I left Fulong Temple, I asked Wang what the white powder that the blind man had surrounded himself in the women's toilet of the station in the western suburbs was what it was.
His answer, as I had guessed, was table salt.
Salt has a super sterilization ability.
Chef Zheng was locked in the yin qi by the onion, and the "walking dead" he became should be the body under the immersion of onions and red vinegar, and the cells produced some kind of fungus, thus controlling his body.
Grandma Hu didn't know that the person who was moving alive now was actually no longer his husband.
However, the obsession in her heart forcibly left Chef Zheng behind.
And the method she used was actually the method recorded in the "Autumn Moon Eclipse List".
I don't believe at all that what kind of peach wood swords, copper bells, etc., that Liang Yuan bought from the blind man Wang, can deal with Chef Zheng, who is already delirious and out of control at all.
So, before I came here, I secretly brought a bag of salt and hid it on my body in case I needed it.
In the final analysis, I don't know whether the salt recorded in the "Autumn Moon Food List" can cure Zheng Chuzi's illness with medicine.
However, the handful of salt I spilled just now really dealt a fatal blow to Chef Zheng.
It seems that all my previous guesses are infinitely close to the correct answer.
At this moment, in the corner of the kitchen, the place on Chef Zheng's body, which was stained with table salt, immediately dissolved quickly as if it had encountered a strong acid, making a "smack" sound, and white smoke came out.
The beast-like howl in Chef Zheng's mouth became painful.
His hands were desperately tapping against the salt on his body, but as he did, the thing spread wider and wider, and it was out of control.
As soon as Chef Zheng, who was in great pain, let go of his hand, Liang Yuan escaped.
Frightened, Liang Yuan saw that Chef Zheng was afraid of the white powder in my hand, so he also grabbed some in his hand and threw a lot of it on Chef Zheng.
Chef Zheng howled even harder.
Liang Yuan asked me while sprinkling: "Tang Xiaofan, this thing was also given to you by the blind man Wang?" Why didn't he tell me this? Honestly, is there a problem with the two of you? ”
He's starting to babble again!
The situation was urgent, I didn't explain too much to him, I just went back and cleaned him up! For now, let's solve this trouble first.
When I sprinkled the salt, Chef Zheng was in pain, but I was thinking about the faces of the children who were eaten by Chef Zheng.
I suddenly had a great feeling in my heart to eliminate harm for the people and savior of mankind.
For a while, all kinds of heroes appeared in my mind in turn, like in a movie.
Kong said that he became benevolent, and Meng said that he took righteousness.
I have to get rid of it today.
Just then, someone rushed up from behind and shoved me to the ground with one palm.
When I looked up, it was Grandma Hu.
She should have just collected the stall and came back, and when she entered the kitchen, she saw the scene in front of her, so she rushed up to protect Chef Zheng.
Liang Yuan's body was taller and stronger than me, and he was not pushed away by Grandma Hu.
He pointed at Grandma Hu and said, "Okay, you Hu woman, you can't usually see it, you are so hard to engage in these messy things, now you are planted in my hands, and your conspiracy will never succeed!" ”
Grandma Hu was small, and although she opened her arms and blocked her husband with her whole body, she still couldn't stand the tall Liang Yuan who sprinkled those powders on Chef Zheng from above.
Hearing that her husband behind her was getting more and more painful, Grandma Hu was anxious.
She began to plead: "Tang Xiaofan, Liang Yuan, it is said that our husband and wife have also watched you grow up since childhood, so you can let us go......"
"That's not going to work! This thing is a pest in the world, I almost confessed to being killed by him just now, if Tang Xiaofan hadn't saved me in time, I guess I would have ...... now."
Speaking of which, the salt in Liang Yuan's hand was spilled.
As soon as I saw this, I got up in time.
I handed the salt in my hand to Liang Yuan, and at this time, I suddenly saw Grandma Hu in front of her husband, I don't know when there was an extra kitchen knife.
I secretly regretted my mistake.
This is Grandma Hu's kitchen, and it is the home of people.
The kitchen knife or something, wherever it was placed, she could touch it with her eyes closed.
Liang Yuan was frightened by the sudden appearance of the weapon.
He didn't sprinkle any more salt, he hoped that Grandma Hu would calm down.
Grandma Hu's kitchen knife waved at us: "Leave my house!" Right away! Right now! ”
I suddenly said, "Grandma Hu, your husband has already died, don't deceive yourself." Although he can move now, he is just a walking corpse, and he doesn't know you at all. ”
"Whatever he is, as long as he can move, he lives!"
Grandma Hu's eyes flashed with tears, pitiful but with a hint of fierceness.
When I think of those missing children, she fed Chef Zheng, and I can't feel a trace of pity for her.
In life, time is limited.
You really shouldn't be too selfish in life.
So I yelled at her: "He is alive, but what about those children, they are always innocent, although you have no children, you can't feel the pain of losing your flesh and blood, but you don't want to care for human life, right?" ”
I don't know if my words have played a role.
I saw Mrs. Hu's eyes suddenly flash as she looked at me.
So I hurriedly said: "You put the knife down, let's sit down and talk well, you have watched me grow up, you can say anything to me in your heart." ”
Mrs. Hu looked at me, her sunken eyes flashing with uncertainty.
"Tang Xiaofan, I, can I really believe you?"
I nodded.
Seeing that she hesitated, I was about to pick up the kitchen knife in her hand, but I didn't expect that just when I got close to Grandma Hu, she actually held the kitchen knife and slashed at my head......
