Pirate's Sea Restaurant

Chapter 60: The matter is resolved

That kingdom is located on a spring island on the Grand Line that is like spring all year round. Although the climate is pleasant and the spring scenery of all things reviving is also very good, the perennial spring also makes the fruit trees on the island not experience the normal summer and autumn at all. After a period of time, the fruit trees on the island can still bear fruit normally.

However, without experiencing the hot climate in summer, the fruit cannot naturally produce and accumulate the sweetness of the fruit. Fruit trees that can only produce bitter and inedible fruits are completely unnecessary to plant, and will waste a lot of land on the island. .

Because the fruit was inedible and fruit trees would only waste land, large-scale felling of fruit trees began on the island, which also caused a large-scale reduction of fruit trees on the island.

Until one day, the guards who followed the king's order to check whether there were any fruit trees left on the island came to one of the most remote villages on the island. The people of the guard actually saw fruit trees in that village, but the people in the village did not. Complying with the king's order to cut down the fruit trees, they also prevented the guards from cutting down the trees.

The people in the village told the escort that this kind of fruit tree was different from other fruit trees that only bear bitter and hard-to-eat fruits. The fruits they bear are very sweet and delicious. At that time, the king did not believe what those villagers said, but The sincere eyes and pleading attitude of the villagers also made the king feel a little soft-hearted, so the king decided to give these fruit trees a chance to prove that their fruits are sweet and delicious.

In this way, the fruit tree only had a few more months of life. During the period from when the fruit tree did not bear fruit to when the fruit matured, people from the Kingdom Guard reported the fruit growth process to the king every day, just like ordinary fruit trees. There is no difference in the growth process, and no careful care is required, just let them grow freely.

One month before the fruit was about to mature, one night, the hard orange skin of the fruit was suddenly covered with some kind of white bugs. The bugs were not big, only as thin as a thread and only as long as a little finger. , but the slender worms are densely covered in all the fruits. At first glance, the appearance of the fruit turns completely white. If you look closely, the slender worms are extremely scary.

The people in the Kingdom Guard were horrified and thought that there was some kind of insect plague in the fruit trees. Just when they were about to cut down the fruit trees in order to prevent the spread of the insect plague, the residents of the village quickly stopped them.

The villagers told the escort that it was not an insect plague. These thin white-striped insects were fruit worms that depended on this fruit tree to survive. It was also because of those fruit worms that the fruits of this fruit tree were sweet and delicious.

Hogs, who was telling the secret of the fruit tree, saw that everyone seemed to understand, but still had some expressions of not quite understanding what was going on. He smiled and looked at Gazog, "Aren't you standing under that kind of fruit tree? Have you ever seen that kind of thing?" Fruit trees? The dense white dots on the leaves of fruit trees are the eggs of this fruit bug."

Because the leaves of the fruit trees emit a certain fragrance, the fruit worms that lay their eggs on the leaves fully absorb all the nutrients in the leaves during their growth, including of course the sweetness, which is contained in the leaves. All substances are filled in their bodies, so when they crawl over immature fruits and successfully penetrate into the fruit to continue growing, they will release the nutrients hidden in their bodies and absorb the nutrients produced by the leaves.

As for why they die inside the fruit, it is because the fruit is bitter and they cannot absorb the substances needed to sustain life. They gnaw the bitter pulp while releasing sugar and the like in the bitter pulp. Substances, the longer they grow when eating fruits, the faster they die. In the end, those fruit worms, which are called white snake worms by the villagers because they are as slender as white snakes, die in the fruit pulp.

This is why it is said that this kind of bug makes the sweetness and deliciousness of that kind of fruit. Without the kind of bugs that absorb nutrients from the leaves and get into the fruit, the sweetness of this kind of fruit would not be possible.

Gazog sank for a while and asked, "Did that kind of insect fall on the young master when we were looking at the fruit trees?"

"Yes." Hogs lowered his eyes. The blood-red insect head had already been stained with the milky white juice. The white snake insect, which was about to crawl out of Yumit's body, continued, "When I saw you for the first time, At the same time, I smelled a faint fragrance from you that was about to dissipate. That kind of fragrance is only found in the fruit trees on that island, so I judged that you went to that island."

As he spoke, Hogs looked up again, his breathing gradually became calmer like that of Yumit who was sleeping. "And the reason why he had a loss of appetite was because he seemed to be frightened by a monster in the ocean, and he was yelling like crazy. It was probably This bug got into his body."

"The residents on the island rarely approach the fruit trees before the fruits are ripe, because the white snake insects can easily fall from the trees when they crawl towards the fruits. When they fall, if they fall on people, they will It will penetrate into the human body and cause death.”

This kind of bug can even penetrate into the hard peel of fruit, let alone the flexible human skin. People will instinctively reject foreign objects that enter the body, but this kind of bug is alive and cannot be rejected, which will eventually lead to that People go crazy.

"In the past, the residents of the island did not know that a person was fine one second, and suddenly went crazy the next second. After being crazy for a few days, that person exhausted all his life. Later they knew that it was because of the white snake. The worm entered the human body. In order to make the white snake worm crawl out of the human body, they tried all kinds of methods until someone put the unripe fruit on the crazy man's body. After waiting for a long time, the thin worm The long worms crawled out of the body of the mad man."

The blood-red and fat white snake worm squirmed out of Yumit's body and squirmed little by little along the inner wall of the water glass into the milky white juice.

Hogs immediately straightened up, holding the glass of juice in his hand, and showed it to everyone in the Ichiban restaurant, "This glass of juice is made based on the aroma of the unripe fruit. This smell smells particularly fragrant. For White snake insects have some fatal attraction. It is also because of this fragrance that the fruit can attract a large number of white snake insects. They don't know that the fruit cannot be eaten. They may think that the fragrance of the fruit is the same as the fragrance of the leaves. Yes, after they eat the leaves, they go to eat the fruits whose fragrance attracts them.”

This kind of thing is simply unbelievable. If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, they wouldn’t believe it.

"Bandage your young master's wound. The bug has crawled out now. He will be fine when he wakes up." Hogs said, casually placing the glass of juice that had been dyed red by blood on the bedside table and raising his hands in the air. He stretched his waist, and then Hoggs turned to everyone in the restaurant and said with a smile, "Go home."

Once the matter is resolved, it is up to them how to deal with this bug. As long as after a period of recovery, Yumit's body will return to its original state. This bug is not harmful to the human body. It is a terrifying bug that can eat the internal organs and flesh of the human body. .

The reason why this worm has grown so big in just a few days is not because it eats human flesh and blood, but because fear causes the entire worm to mutate, and because the human body is so huge to it. Yes, it doesn't know where to crawl out. It can only squirm inside the human body, looking for a place to get out.

"uh ok"

For a moment, everyone couldn't break away from what Hoggs had just said. At this time, they were subconsciously startled when they heard Hoggs's words, and then quickly followed Hoggs's footsteps.

"Mr. Hogs" Seeing Hogs turn around and leave, Gazog quickly walked up to Hogs and bowed deeply to Hogs, "Thank you very much, Mr. Hogs, for saving Master Yumit's life." life"

"It's just a small matter." Hogus patted Gazog on the shoulder, and then staggered away from Gazog.

What kind of courage, insight and mind does this man have? He made such a bold guess just by relying on his sense of smell. Only people who absolutely trust their sense of smell would dare to do this. Even doctors can't find the problem. , he solved the problem based on what he saw and heard, and his broad-mindedness towards others was unparalleled.

"Mr. Hogs, when Master Yumit wakes up, can you please cook for Master Yumit?"

"Okay, but our restaurant currently has insufficient ingredients. If you need to cook, you have to bring your own ingredients."

"uh ok"

"Mr. Hoggs, why do bugs like that survive in the human body for so long?"

As soon as I walked out of the door, someone asked this question in a low voice with a pale face.

As soon as he walked out of the room, he heard this question. Hoggs turned to look at Wei'an who was looking at him, and said with a smile, "Hey, stop embarrassing me, you brat. I'm not a great scientist or medical scientist. He's just a chef, how could he know such profound things?"

As soon as Hoggs finished speaking, someone immediately said, "A chef who is better than the great scientists and medical scientists."

Hoggs instantly turned his head and curled his lips downwards, staring straight at the man with his deep eyes, "How could the brat stop flattering you?"

Seeing Hogs and the others walking out of the room, Gazog quickly chased after them with strode. He wanted to send the people who were treating the young master away. When he reached the door, he ordered the guards guarding the door to find the doctors on the ship. The wounds caused by the bugs emerging from the skin were bandaged for Yumit, and the unconscious housekeeper was also given emergency treatment by doctors.
