The occurrence of diseases caused by the parasitism of the Anomalocaris in the human body was rare in China. However, it was heard from time to time in Japan. After all, it was not comfortable to eat it raw there. The more high-end the food was, the more attention was paid to the original flavor of the ingredients. To put it bluntly, it was all caused by the word “fresh”.
High-end sea fish were transported back to the seafood trading center on the shore in one piece after being fished out of the water. The head chef of the high-end restaurant would get up at fouro’ clock every morning and wait on the shore. As soon as the fishing boat docked, a variety of fish was placed on the ground, and he would immediately grab the fish that met his requirements before the other head chefs. Then, he would bring the fish back to the restaurant while it was fresh and immediately process it. When the first wave of old dishes arrived at noon, he would be able to taste the most delicious food … Only such a head chef was worthy of a high-end restaurant. Those restaurants that raised the head chef like a boss could only have an undeserved reputation.
However, the chef’s processing process did not include the inspection of the fish for parasites, because a restaurant like this had to process a lot of ingredients every day. It was impossible to examine the fish piece by piece with a magnifying glass. After the fish was cut into thin slices, it had to be put in the mouth soon. Otherwise, if it was exposed to the air for a long time, the taste would also decline, which would affect the reputation of the restaurant.
In order to pursue the top taste, the old gluttons didn’t care too much about these things. Let alone parasite infection, there were many people who were poisoned to death eating pufferfish in the restaurant, but the diners were still like ducks.
Electrician Wu was both happy and angry. He gritted his teeth and said,””Old Zhao is an idiot. Of all the things he could learn, why did he have to learn to eat raw food like foreigners? isn’t there something wrong with this?”
Zhang Zian explained,”it’s actually not that bad. Master Zhao just wants to try the taste of the top red snapper because it’s rare to meet one. He can brag about it to others in the future.” Generally speaking, this kind of situation rarely happens. In fact, master Zhao has bad luck again …”
Electrician Wu still shook his head.”I just don’t understand. Is it worth it just for a mouthful of fresh meat?”
Perhaps many people China did not understand this kind of fanaticism. However, in life, people often fanatically liked certain things, such as playing games, fishing, bodybuilding, racing, building models, and so on. There were popular hobbies and also niche hobbies. There were hobbies that could be understood by the public, and there were also hobbies that were despised and even spurned by the public.
When it came to fishing, many people’s first impression was that it was an elegant hobby, but there were many people who abandoned their wives and children for fishing. They were all obsessed with it, and any interfering factors that affected fishing had to be eliminated.
The risk of pursuing delicious food was nothing. It was already a healthy and harmless fanatical hobby. It was much better than being fanatical about games, because one had to have money to pursue delicious food. If one wanted to have money, one had to make money. It was not like being fanatical about games and becoming a Nibby family or a useless otaku …
When it came to the dangers, people who got infected by parasites by eating raw fish slices were really much less than people who got tenoshinone or cervical spondylosis from playing games. It was not even a drop in the bucket.
Zhang Zian wasn’t a glutton. He wouldn’t risk getting infected by parasites for a bite of fresh food, but he understood and respected the gluttons ‘choice. However, it would be more difficult for electrician Wu to understand.
It didn’t matter, there was no need to force it. Welder Zhao was welder Zhao, and electrician Wu was electrician Wu. People’s thoughts were different, and that was what made a society of all kinds.
Zhang Zian and electrician Wu called welder Zhao’s family into the kitchen and showed them the sacs and larvae in the fish.
“The thing that looked like a tumor in master Zhao’s stomach was most likely the larva that had grown up. Several adult worms were in a ball. Since the cases of infection by the Anomalocaris are rare in China, the doctors probably have no experience. Master Zhao also refused to do further examination, which led to the current misunderstanding.” Zhang Zian explained.
Welder Zhao’s family was skeptical. Of course, they hoped that Zhang Zian was right, but they were also a little worried about the accuracy of his judgment. After all, he was neither a doctor nor an authority in this area.
Zhang Zian understood what they were thinking and said,””Master Zhao’s abdominal pain, vomiting, and diarrhea are all allergic reactions caused by the toxins released by the dead parasites. So, if you have anti-allergy medicine at home, you can give master Zhao some. If it’s effective, it can more or less confirm my guess.”
Over-the-counter anti-allergy medicine such as polmyne or Caritan were always available in many families, whether it was for certain food allergies or pollen allergies. Therefore, master Zhao’s family found the anti-allergy medicine and coaxed welder Zhao to take it.
Half an hour later, welder Zhao shouted,””Eh? What did you give me to eat? My stomach doesn’t hurt that much anymore … Sigh! AI! Why did you hit me? Put down the broom! What are you doing?”
“I hit you? I’m going to beat you to death! You useless old man, you’re already so old and you’re still pretending to be sick! It was so embarrassing! You might as well just die! I’m going to kill you today!”
Welder Zhao’s wife had been worried for the past few days. She couldn’t eat or sleep. She was worried all day and lost a few pounds of meat. In the end, welder Zhao had a small illness like worms in his stomach. It caused the whole family to be in a mess. Even his neighbors and former colleagues came to visit him with gifts. How could he apologize to them?
Welder Zhao’s bedroom was in a mess. His wife was so angry that she jumped onto the bed and used a broom to hit him all over his face. He was so shocked that he rolled under the bed with the quilt and did not dare to come out.
Welder Zhao’s daughter and son-in-law quickly went in to stop the fight. The two old people were not young anymore, and it was not good to be too emotional. After a long time of persuasion, welder Zhao’s wife finally stopped. She stopped her hand, but she was still pointing at welder Zhao and scolding him.
At this time, welder Zhao also heard the whole story from his daughter and son-in-law. He was so stunned that he couldn’t speak.
“Master Wu, give me a hand.”
Zhang Zian came in with a plastic bucket and a small net. He first used the plastic bucket to scoop half a bucket of water from the fish tank, then asked electrician Wu to scoop the fish from the fish tank into the bucket.
“Wait, wait, wait, wait!”
Welder Zhao hurriedly got out from under the bed. Because he was too fast, he hit his head on the edge of the bed. He didn’t care about the pain and stopped Zhang Zian and electrician Wu.
“What are you guys doing?”
Zhang Zian shrugged his shoulders.”Master Zhao, didn’t you say that these fish and corals were for me? I’ll take them back now. As for this fish tank being too heavy, I’ll come back to deal with it in two days …”
Welder Zhao was so anxious that he stomped his feet.”I’m not going to die. It wasn’t easy for me to get these fish. I can’t give them to you!”
The whole family was too embarrassed to raise their heads. This was too embarrassing!
Zhang Zian sympathized with welder Zhao’s son-in-law. If he had such a father-in-law, he would rather be single.
