Chapter 24: Hermaphrodites

Zhuo Yichen was really tired, so he didn't say anything and just let Zhuo Yun hug him like this.Zhuo Yun slowed down his pace again, dawdling, as if he didn't want to go home at all.

Zhuo Yun asked jokingly, "Brother, are you afraid of me?"

Zhuo Yichen had already closed his eyes in his warm embrace, and he muttered in a low voice, "There's nothing to be afraid of, you are a mud bodhisattva and you can't protect yourself, why should I be afraid of you..."

Zhuo Yun smiled and asked again: "Then, do you blame me?"

Zhuo Yichen fell silent.After a long time, he opened his eyes and said slowly: "It's strange, how can I not blame you, you ruined my stable life for no reason."

Zhuo Yun exerted a little force on his arms to make his brother get closer to him.He would hold this body in his arms every night, and he was already very familiar with it.But when you are so close, you will still be excited and unable to restrain yourself.

Zhuo Yun was both moved and itchy, he couldn't help turning his face to the side, and gently touched Zhuo Yichen's temples with his lips.

It was actually a very subtle, imperceptible kiss.

Zhuo Yun said: "Brother, do you remember, I swore in front of you that I will promise you a safe life."

Zhuo Yichen responded in a low voice.He gently wrapped his arms around Zhuo Yun's neck, glued it to his neck, and buried his face.

When he was about to get home, Zhuo Yichen said, "Let's put it down."

Zhuo Yun didn't stop, he said with a smile: "I'd better take you back to the room to rest. You are not in good health, and you have been suffering from the wind and cold for the past few days. Even if you are seen, you won't be ashamed. Besides, the two of us came all the way , how many people have seen it.”

Zhuo Yichen's face flushed slightly, and he coughed lightly, "I'm not going back to the room, but going to the kitchen."

Zhuo Yun was even more reluctant now, "Don't get your knife in the water these few days, leave it to me. You go back to your room and rest, and I'll pack your luggage. Let's take everything and leave with parents."

This escape was understated by Zhuo Yun, as if he was just going out to visit relatives.

Zhuo Yichen was still a little nervous, he suddenly raised his head and was about to say something, when his hard head hit Zhuo Yun's chin first.The force of the impact was not small, making Zhuo Yun's eyes dark for a while.Zhuo Yun smiled, took the opportunity to punish Zhuo Yichen slightly, and pinched Zhuo Yichen's leg.

"Brother, you are much heavier now than before. If you move around like this again, I won't be able to hug you anymore."

Zhuo Yichen lowered his head in embarrassment at these words, and repeated in a low voice: "I'm going to the kitchen."

He added, "I need to find out how the puffer fish is poisoned. If Prince Jing didn't poison it, then the strangeness lies in the puffer fish itself."

Now Zhuo Yun was not in the mood to make jokes, he slowly darkened his face, and slowly asked: "Did it turn out to be poisonous after testing as non-toxic before?"

Zhuo Yichen nodded, and then realized how Zhuo Yun knew.This time he didn't raise his head hastily, but raised his face slightly and asked, "You are not in Shao's residence, how do you know about this?"

Zhuo Yun didn't hide anything, and said clearly, "This is the cause of my death." He paused, and then said, "But I don't know who the poisoner is..."

Hearing this, Zhuo Yichen lowered his eyes thoughtfully, "This weirdness may be the pufferfish itself."

In the end, Zhuo Yun still couldn't resist his brother's repeated demands, so he followed Zhuo Yichen's instructions and went to the kitchen.

Zhuo Yichen poured all the puffer fish meat on the chopping board, then picked up the black iron knife and began to cut it finely.He moved so fast that he didn't even blink his eyes.At first, seeing his brother like this, Zhuo Yun worried that he would accidentally cut his hand, but then Zhuo Yun gradually realized that his worry was unnecessary.Even if Zhuo Yichen closes his eyes, he won't cut his fingers.

Zhuo Yichen chopped the meat very finely, put it into the water and boiled it, and threw some fresh hairy vegetables into it.

Zhuo Yun asked in surprise, "Isn't this poisonous, why do you still make it into soup?"

Zhuo Yichen stared at the pot of reboiled soup without moving his eyes, while explaining, "I suspect that there is still toxin hidden in the puffer fish, because the meat was in one piece before, maybe it can't be released, so I cut it. thin."

The boiled soup was bubbling and the fragrance was getting stronger and stronger, but during this time, Zhuo Yichen saw that Mr. System's toxicity warning was getting higher and higher.This shows that the poison in the soup is getting heavier and heavier along with the umami taste, and it seems to be releasing the toxin more and more completely.Zhuo Yichen became more and more sure of his guess.

However, the ingredients here are only snow-white fish meat and testes, both of which are non-toxic.So where do toxins come from?

After letting the soup boil for a while, Zhuo Yichen asked Zhuo Yun to stop the firewood.

He picked up a pair of long bamboo chopsticks and fiddled with them back and forth.

Zhuo Yun stood beside him and asked, "Could it be because the poison was not treated thoroughly?"

Zhuo Yichen shook his head, "This soup is non-toxic at first, which means it has been eliminated."

His long chopsticks stirred carefully and slowly in the soup, and then gently pushed aside a vegetable leaf.

Zhuo Yichen's movements stopped suddenly, and his face became serious.

what is that? !

Zhuo Yun also leaned over and took a closer look, only to see that there were several small golden round grains on the joints of the stems and leaves of the hairy vegetable.Because hairy vegetables have fine vegetable hairs, it is easy to attach particles, so the particles that are too small to be detected are absorbed at once.

Zhuo Yun has read countless books, so he can naturally recognize the thing in front of him, but at the moment he doesn't quite believe his own judgment, "...fish roe?"

Zhuo Yichen took out the hairy cabbage leaf with golden particles, and put it in front of his eyes for a moment.

He nodded, "Indeed, this is fish roe."

Zhuo Yun asked in amazement: "But, how can there be fish seeds?"

Zhuo Yichen must also know that fish roe is highly poisonous, but he did not find fish roe when he removed the poisonous organs and cleaned the stained mucus. Moreover, fish roe is fish eggs, which are only found in the ovaries of female pufferfish!But it's a pufferfish!

Zhuo Yichen was surprised for a moment in disbelief, and immediately understood.

"Androgynous."

"--What?" Zhuo Yun was terrified.

"I can see the internal organs of the fish clearly. This is clearly a male puffer. Unexpectedly, there is a highly poisonous female nest in the male nest. But I kept the male nest intact unintentionally. The mother's nest is tightly wrapped inside, and the toxin has not had time to seep out. Therefore, the initial soup is non-toxic, but as long as it is a little longer, or stirred with chopsticks, the toxin will seep out once the male nest is broken. Come."

In the process of stewing, it is quite difficult to keep the testis intact. It is very difficult for few people to do it. As long as the heat is a little bit over or the stirring force is a little stronger, the delicate viscera will be broken , the toxins of the ovary will pour out.

Moreover, the appearance of the female nest is similar to that of the male nest, and the identification depends on whether there are fish eggs inside.However, the ovaries of intersex fish produce very few eggs, and the roe is so small that it is extremely difficult to find the roe in the female nest even if the male nest is cut open.Unless someone who already knew the truth about the terrified fish deliberately did it to keep the male nest, the soup would have been highly poisonous from the very beginning!Zhuo Yichen was extremely cautious when handling the ingredients and stewing the soup, and he did it by mistake.However, this also confirmed Prince Jing's suspicions about him.

As with intersex people, hermaphroditism is, in modern terms, a deformity of the reproductive system.Zhuo Yichen is a modern person, and he is a little more accepting of hermaphrodites than Zhuo Yun.This method of eating and poisoning is very subtle but treacherous and sinister. Who would have thought that this fish is actually a hermaphrodite?Even Zhuo Yichen didn't expect that he deduced this result step by step based on the toxicity of food.If it weren't for the help of Mr. System, he might also get into the trap.

I can guess that it will be this, but what makes Zhuo Yichen still feel strange is that the probability of bisexuality is extremely low in nature. It may be difficult for such a bisexual species to appear among tens of thousands of puffers. Have it on hand? !It is likely that this deformity was caused by deliberate feeding!

Zhuo Yun's acceptance was obviously not as good as Zhuo Yichen's, and he felt disgusted and loathed, even thinking that he died after eating such a weird and deformed thing by mistake, he felt it was unbearable!

You won't be able to enjoy the food in the future!

"This Prince Jing..." was simply creepy, too perverted and too sick.

Zhuo Yun frowned slowly, "I was still in the palace in the early years, and I heard that there were several child prostitutes in his house, and it was even rumored that those child prostitutes were either men or women. It's ridiculous, now..." Zhuo Yun's face turned pale, and he felt that he was panicking in his heart!

Zhuo Yichen asked: "Those people...are they born like this, or..."

"It is rumored that there is a highly poisonous medicine in the secret pavilion of Gongwei. If you take it for a long time... it can be difficult for male and female."

When Zhuo Yichen heard what Zhuo Yun said, his scalp went numb and goosebumps stood up all over his body.

There is such a medicine that destroys humanity!

Zhuo Yichen felt uneasy, "Let's leave here quickly, it's not safe anymore."

No matter how reluctant I am, I must leave here.

"Since King Jing already knows that I belong to you, he will definitely press Shao's house to ask. Master Shao will never say anything, but it is inevitable that Prince Jing will catch some clues and come here. I was still in the market before. It will take a long time, maybe someone knows me and remembers me, if Prince Jing catches me and asks..."

As Zhuo Yichen spoke, he raised his head and looked worriedly at Zhuo Yun beside him, only to be surprised that Zhuo Yun was looking at him deeply, with obsession and eagerness in his gloomy eyes, which was actually affectionate .

Zhuo Yichen hurriedly lowered his eyes and didn't dare to look at each other again. His heart beat a few beats faster, and at the same time he felt a little uneasy and flustered. He lowered his head and asked, "You, why do you look like a demon?"

But can you avoid Zhuo Yun by lowering your eyes?

Zhuo Yun stretched out his hand, wanting to take Zhuo Yichen into his arms, but Zhuo Yichen stood still.Zhuo Yun didn't force it, just put his hands on his waist lightly, lowered his head to the base of his ear, and said slowly: "You just said it yourself, you are my man."

Zhuo Yichen was startled, he even forgot what he said, probably it means that this place is not safe and it is not suitable to stay for a long time?Another sentence?

When I was about to get rid of distracting thoughts before discussing the matter of escaping, I heard a voice full of affection, which was no longer clear: "Yichen, you are mine..."
