Chapter 162: Poison


"Continue, continue."

Ning Junwu felt that he was not ordinary stupid today, and he could hardly lift his head from that look.

"It was just what the robber said," Xia Xiaodong said leisurely, "You might as well think about what the husband said."

"How to say?"

Ning Junwu didn't guess on his own, but asked.

"The husband's statement is that after seeing the strongman, the woman was so frightened that she even ignored her husband in order to survive.

She threw herself into the arms of the robber in front of her husband.

She even suffered in fear of being held accountable by her husband afterwards.

She begged the robber to take her away, so the husband finally couldn't bear it anymore, suppressed the fear in his heart, and rushed forward to beat the adulterer, but was killed by the adulterer. " Xia Xiaodong said, looking at Ning Junwu with a smile.

Ning Junwu touched his chin.

This time he learned the lesson and did not rush to express his position.

He thought for a while and asked, "What did that woman say?"

Smart people learn quickly.

"The woman said that the robber was interested in sex, but her husband was not able to rely on him, and he was unfortunately defiled by the thief.

Later, the robber walked away satisfied, and her husband got angry at her, so she took out a protective dagger and asked him to kill her."

"Unexpectedly, her husband refused to take action and only laughed at her for refusing to commit suicide.

As a result, she was so angry that she fainted.

When she woke up, she found that the dagger was inserted into her husband's body.

I don't know if she moved her hand in anger or after she fainted.

Someone else."

"Well, I'm done talking this time."

Xia Xiaodong declared.

It’s a simplified and adapted version of Rashomon.

Classics always become classics for a reason.

Rashomon is a classic among classics.

Ning Junwu lowered his eyes and tapped the table with his fingers.

He could naturally imagine that Xia Xiaodong would not tell him a plain story.

There are three people and three versions of this story.

"So who is telling the truth?"

Ning Junwu raised his head and asked.

"There is no truth."

Xia Xiaodong said softly: "In other words, whatever you want to believe is the truth."

Otherwise why is credit so important?

Just because if a person has no credibility, no one will believe him even if what he says is the truth.

What no one believes can become the truth.

Ning Junwu naturally thought of the death of his mother, Princess Yan.

The passing of Princess Yan was actually very simple.

It was a normal day, after a sumptuous dinner, and he died.

Have a good meal and then die.

So what's going on?

One of the theories is that a concubine wanted to please the princess and offered a special product from her hometown.

However, this special product seemed to conflict with a certain food on the table, and as a result, the princess was killed.

Later, the concubine, the other concubine who encouraged the concubine to please the princess, and everyone in the entire dinner chain from the cook to the maid who served the table were all dealt with.

Of course, to the outside world, the princess failed to take care of herself after childbirth and unfortunately died of illness.

Anyway, as long as it is less than ten years after giving birth, it can be counted as postpartum.

"If you think about it carefully, maybe my mother was not poisoned back then," Ning Junwu asked in an erratic tone.

"Let me tell you about poisoning again."

Xia Xiaodong sat up straight, drank a cup of tea to moisten his throat, and then gave Ning Junwu some knowledge about poisoning.

Generally speaking, toxic substances can actually be divided into nerve poisons, blood circulation poisons and mixed poisons.

However, such a complicated principle needs no further explanation.

It was not easy for Xia Xiaodong to explain it as simply and concisely as possible without using professional words.

So Xia Xiaodong started talking about eating.

The history of human growth can be described as the process of constantly discovering and identifying what can be eaten and what cannot be eaten, and it takes considerable effort to decide what can appear on the table.

When a person wants to put something into his mouth, if he has never seen the thing before, or it is rare, he must think about it, is it edible?

People who do not want to think this way have been eliminated by the torrent of evolution and are almost extinct.

For example, if you have a plate of brightly colored poisonous mushrooms, you will always hesitate before putting down your chopsticks.

For those who are unwilling to hesitate, please refer to the previous paragraph.

They have no chance to pass on this unwillingness to hesitate gene.

If possible, you must find someone to try it.

Princess Yan has this condition.

Even if you take a step back and think about it, if you don't let others try it, you will definitely taste it yourself and not eat too much.

So, let’s talk about poisonous things.

It seems that there is no such thing as food that has been eaten immediately when the throat is sealed at the entrance, but it is also a legend.

That is, a certain dosage is required.

To say poisoning without dosage is to be a hooligan.

"But if you eat puffer fish, the liver, eyes, and skin are quite poisonous."

Xia Xiaodong told Ning Junwu: "So it's best not to eat it at all.

It is estimated that such things will not appear in the palace at all. " Sure enough, Ning Junwu had never heard of a puffer fish.

Another very important thing is the smell of poison.

The poison actually doesn’t taste good.

Arsenic has a metallic taste in the mouth, nux vomica is very bitter, and aconite is basically medicine.

Even if it is mixed with medicine, it can be eaten.

Therefore, the word "gush" is often used to kill people with poison, not only because the other party is unwilling, but also because it tastes very unpalatable.

A dish that can poison must be rich in flavor to cover up the poison.

If you think about it this way, you can understand why not many people have been assassinated by poisoning in history.

Most of those who were poisoned to death were killed by doves, or by force-fed a pot of poisoned wine with careful dosage.

Although the history of this time and space is different from the time and space that Xia Xiaodong has experienced before, in general, the conclusion can still be directly deduced.

"You seem to know a lot."

Ning Junwu's expression was a little dull.

"Didn't we agree to make a deal?"

Xia Xiaodong had already thought of the reason: "Then of course I have to do my homework.

What I said is well documented and can be found in medical books.

If you are willing, you can also do it yourself Go and see.”

"Thank you very much."

Ning Junwu was a little moved.

"It doesn't matter.

Think about it first.

If there's anything I didn't explain clearly, you can ask me again."

Xia Xiaodong talked for a long time and decided to take a break and eat something to cushion his stomach.

"So, it shouldn't be poisoning."

Ning Junwu looked a little disappointed.

I have been thinking in the direction of poison, but suddenly realized that it might not be the case, which is inevitably confusing.

"It's too early to draw such a conclusion."

Xia Xiaodong hurriedly swallowed a few vinegar peanuts in his mouth and said softly: "Have you forgotten that the princess died suddenly after having a good meal?

It's just a way of saying it."

"It's like, everything written in the history books is true?"

Maybe your mother did have a good meal back then, but then she was poured a pot of wine with cooking wine and died.

Who can say for sure:
