Ma Long's words were so shocking that everyone present changed their expressions. Especially the old lady's eldest daughter Xu Wenjun, whose expression could be ugly.
The things she brought back to her mother all the way from abroad were pointed out to her face as poisonous, as if she had evil intentions, and anyone who heard it would be angry.
After Ma Long said this rashly, he felt a little regretful. But after all, the situation was urgent, so he blurted it out before he had time to think.
Xu Wenyan retorted mercilessly: "Don't talk nonsense! How could the things my eldest sister brought back be poisonous? This is food for our mother."
"That's right! Have you ever seen ginseng? This is the first time I heard that ginseng is poisonous. It's so uneducated and terrible!" Jin Dazhong immediately agreed.
Dai Xianghan frowned, pushed Ma Long's arm, and asked softly: "What's going on?"
Ma Long stood up and said sincerely: "Please believe me, this thing is really poisonous and cannot be eaten!"
Xu Wenjun finally couldn't sit still anymore. He slammed the table, stood up and said loudly: "What do you mean? Do you want to say that I want to kill my own mother?"
"Auntie, that's not what I meant."
"Don't call me auntie, I don't have a nephew like you!" As he said this, Xu Wenjun crossed his arms and turned his head away, trembling with anger.
Jin Dazhong was so proud when he saw Ma Long making a fool of himself that he added fuel to the fire: "You guard, you really don't know how to promote yourself. Did you come here just to ruin the place? You are the only person on this table who is uneducated, and we didn't notice it."
It’s poisonous, you know it’s poisonous? Have all our studies over the years been in vain?”
Seeing that Ma Long's expression was serious and not joking, the old lady asked, "Are you so sure? This is really the first time I've heard that ginseng can be poisonous?"
"Everything that grows from the soil contains more or less toxins, but most of the poisons can be ignored and will not cause typhoid to our human body. But ginseng is very strange, and it contains very heavy poisons.
, you put it in a plastic bag and tie it first, the smell alone is already very harmful to your body."
The old lady was a little hesitant with this piece of ginseng in her hand. If it was really as serious as what he said, she wouldn't dare to be careless. After all, she was old and couldn't afford to be injured. But she had to listen to his words and tie the ginseng properly.
He closed his mouth because he was afraid that his eldest daughter would be sad.
"Xiao Ma, how can you prove that this is poisonous?" The old lady hesitated and finally asked.
An idea flashed in Ma Long's mind and he said: "You can do experiments with living animals. This is a restaurant, you can try it with fish. If the fish dies, it means it is poisonous."
The old lady nodded and looked at her eldest daughter again, wanting to ask her opinion.
Xu Wenjun turned around and went out to call the waiter.
An awkward silence fell in the room.
"If the fish are okay for a while, what will happen to you? You are obviously here to ruin this great day!" Jin Dazhong said.
"I'm not saying that it's not okay to let an outsider come to our family gathering!" Xu Wenyan also rolled her eyes at Ma Long.
Malone was furious and said loudly: "If the result is that I am wrong, I will apologize and leave immediately!"
When Jin Dazhong heard this, he felt happy. He wished that Ma Long would get out early so that he could sit next to Dai Xianghan. He quickly asked: "Do you mean what you say?"
"If my conclusion is correct, you will leave immediately. Do you dare to take another gamble?"
"This..." Jin Dazhong was really afraid of gambling with Ma Long. A car that had never had a flat tire could stage a general strike. It had to be said that the other party's luck was really good. He was really worried that something unexpected would happen soon.
.
Just when Jin Dazhong was hesitating whether to make this bet or not, Xu Wenjun suddenly opened the door and came in, followed by a waiter, holding an iron basin with several goldfish in it.
"These are the three goldfish I fished out from the hall. They are enough for you to test." Xu Wenjun said angrily to Ma Long, and took out a ginseng stick from the plastic bag and handed it to Ma Long, "Here.
You, how do you want to test it? Should you just put it in or cook it and put it in?"
Ma Long took it with a guilty look on his face, pinched off a small section of roots, and said, "Just put a little in. This thing is quite toxic."
With that said, he placed this small section of roots in the iron basin. He said to the waiter holding the basin: "Okay, just put it on the ground and you can go out."
After the waiter went out, everyone stood up and stared at the reactions of the fish in the basin. At first, the goldfish were a little wary of the hair. When they gradually came into contact with it and found that there was no harm, they went around it.
They play with roots and even bite them with their mouths open.
One minute...two minutes...five minutes...ten minutes...
Time passed minute by minute, and the fish in the basin was still alive and well, without any abnormality. The old lady was the first to stand impatiently. After waiting for five minutes, she sat down and stopped looking at Ma Long.
Others gradually sat back in their seats, their eyes full of disdain. Everyone thought that Ma Long said it randomly to attract attention. What he said was so trivial!
Only Dai Xianghan stood and watched with Ma Long for a while, then forcibly pulled Ma Long to sit down.
Seeing the pale-faced Ma Long, Jin Dazhong smiled triumphantly: "Hey, guard, give in this time! Why is ginseng poisonous? I think you have a brain disease!"
Xu Wenyan also teased: "Is this the knowledge you taught yourself that 'no one else knows'?" This made everyone else laugh.
Ma Long sat on the chair with a dull expression, silent, thinking: Could it be that he was really wrong? His brain clearly sent out danger signals, but why didn't anything abnormal happen after the goldfish came into contact? Could it be that this "Qi Discrimination Technique"
"There are times when mistakes are made? Thinking of this, Ma Long sighed secretly: It's better to have a clear conscience!
At this time, plates of food were served, and everyone's eyes were attracted by the delicious food. The old lady said: "Let's eat first." After saying that, she didn't even look at Ma Long, and her attitude became a little bit indifferent.
Ma Long was used to the feeling of being ignored by others, and he didn't care. What made him wonder was whether the gas floating in the room was harmful to the human body? The ginseng he took out was not put in as required by Ma Long.
He returned it to the plastic bag and threw it on the ground. The goldfish in the fish basin was swimming happily and seemed to be laughing at Ma Long.
Dai Xianghan was the only one who believed in Ma Long in her heart. She still remembered that when she first arrived, Ma Long was racing against a car. When she urged him to run fast, he turned around and said, "Believe me!"
That firm look was enough for Dai Xianghan to remember for a lifetime. When Ma Long stood up and said that ginseng was poisonous, it was the same look, and his tone was even more firm. She didn't believe that Ma Long would do something as boring as lying to attract attention.
Ma Long felt the poisonous gas floating around the Dantian in his brain, which could not be dissipated for a long time. The poisonous gas gradually eroded towards the Dantian in his brain. Every time he absorbed a little bit, Ma Long felt dizzy. This poisonous gas attacked the brain and it felt really good.
Not comfortable.
He had no choice but to release a stream of fairy energy in his Dantian, slowly dissolving the poisonous energy, just like eliminating the previous lust in his body, and slowly guiding the poisonous energy to travel throughout his body. When this poisonous energy circulated around his head for a while,
When Zhou Tian was little, his aura completely dissipated, and he was basically attracted by the immortal energy. When the immortal energy returned, Ma Long immediately felt refreshed, and his cultivation seemed to have improved a lot.
Ma Long was confused: Could this unique poisonous gas help him practice? And just taking a sip had already produced a good effect. If he ate the whole ginseng, wouldn't the effect be even more obvious? It seems like this
Ginseng is really a treasure, but I don’t know if it will be harmful to the body.
Heaving a sigh of relief, Ma Long turned his head to take a look at the fish basin on the ground behind him, but his eyes suddenly widened. He saw the three goldfish that had been swimming happily just now, all floating on the water, motionless, and their bellies were all turned upside down.
And his whole body turned black.
This thing is indeed poisonous!
This shock made Ma Long unable to recover for a long time.
Luo Mei suddenly wanted to go to the toilet, so she put down her chopsticks and stood up quietly. As soon as she turned around, she saw Ma Long still staring at the fish basin. She couldn't help but want to persuade him, but out of the corner of her eye, she caught sight of the goldfish in the basin.
, was so frightened that he screamed: "The goldfish are all dead!"
This shout made everyone stand up in shock and looked up at the fish in the basin. They were all dead, and they were so frightened that they all secretly took a deep breath.
Ma Long took a quick step and came behind the old lady and Xu Wenjun, picked up the two ginseng sticks on the ground, put them into a plastic bag, and tied them.
The old lady also reacted and quickly shouted: "Open the window and open the door quickly, everyone should take cover!"
Ma Long activated the "Qi Discrimination Technique" again and sucked all the special poisonous gas in the room into his body. He endured the discomfort of the poisonous gas attacking his heart, released five strands of immortal energy in his body to resolve it, and spoke to comfort the panicked one.
Housekeeper, "Don't panic! This poisonous gas will not harm people, as long as they don't eat it."
The current family firmly believed in Malone's words. Since he said there would be no harm, everyone returned to their respective seats, but the windows and doors were still open.
The old lady's eyes when she looked at Ma Long also changed, from liking when they first met, to contempt when she heard about his profession, to doubt when she heard his surprising words, to now respect when the truth is revealed, respect from the bottom of her heart.
. She knew in her heart that if it weren't for Ma Long today, their whole family would have died! It didn't matter that she had lived to this age, but it would be too pitiful for her children and grandchildren here to be buried with her. What's even more terrifying is that
, everyone in this room was poisoned and died. If this kind of thing spreads, I don’t know what kind of crazy talk it will be spread. In her old age, she will be burdened with an infamy, and she will have to die in peace!
To put it bluntly, Ma Long is now the savior of their family. How can she not respect the kindness and kindness?
The eldest daughter Xu Wenjun suddenly burst into tears and said miserably: "Mom...I...I don't know...I..."
The old lady patted her daughter on the back and said comfortingly: "I don't blame you, who would have thought that this ginseng is poisonous. Fortunately, Xiao Ma is here. Just now, everyone didn't believe her. I'm really ashamed to say it." As she said,
He looked at Ma Long again with apologetic eyes.
Ma Long said quickly: "Actually, I wasn't sure just now, but if I'm not afraid of ten thousand, I'm afraid of what happens if it's not?"
The old lady nodded: "That's right, isn't this just an 'in case'? It's really scary. Come on, let's toast Xiao Ma with a glass of wine and thank Xiao Ma for saving his life!"
Since the old lady had spoken, everyone toasted Malone with a glass of wine. Jin Dazhong was reluctant to do so, but he had to follow suit.
Seeing that everyone respected Ma Long more and more, as if they regarded him as a family member, Jin Dazhong felt unhappy. After everyone put down their wine glasses, he quickly smiled and said: "Today is grandma's birthday, I have prepared a gift, I hope grandma will
To be able to like it.”
As he spoke, he took out an exquisite gift box from his arms.
