After setting the bet, Murray said no more nonsense and directly ordered Ruby, "Go and bring back ten crickets, ten scarabs, ten summer cicadas, ten dragonflies, and ten wasps."
Ruby's skin got goosebumps, "What do you want these for?"
Murray frowned slightly, "Go and do it. Do you still want your grandpa?"
"Then, after you get them back, fry them into a dish for me yourself. Don't add chili pepper, but sprinkle some salt."
"Then seal it and put it in the refrigerator to cool down."
He reminded, "Remember, you must seal the fragrance."
"Pervert."
Ruby almost vomited as soon as she heard this. She glared at Murray fiercely, and then took her bodyguards to complete the arduous task.
An hour later, Ruby appeared in front of Murray wearing a mask, holding a large plate of fried wasps and other items in her hand.
Golden and crispy.
Although it had been frozen, the aroma was still very attractive. If she did not known that it was insects, she would have tasted one.
Ruby breathed quickly, "You pervert, what you want is here, what do you want to do?"
She had vomited three or four times just for this plate of food. If Murray was just playing with her, she would chop Murray into pieces and stir-fry.
"Do not speak."
Murray signaled Ruby and the others to be silent, and also asked the bodyguards and others to be on alert to prevent noise from disturbing him.
Then, he took out two silver needles and said with a smile, "Mr. Hudson, open your mouth."
Eat insects?
Joyce's scalp went numb looking at the plate of things, but he still obeyed and opened his mouth.
Danna and Master Sigeweard watched this scene with great interest.
Although they didn't know what Murray was doing, they believed that Murray would not let them down.
"Whoosh..."
Just after Joyce opened his mouth to the maximum, Murray inserted two needles into the facial acupuncture points to keep his mouth wide open.
Ruby was shocked when she saw this, "Asshole, what are you doing?"
"Shut up!"
Murray scolded Ruby unceremoniously, and then poured a plate of fried insects into a transparent jar.
The next second, he blocked the jar in Joyce's mouth.
Ruby became anxious and was about to shout, but Murray glared and looked back.
The whole place was so silent that could almost hear the drop of a pin.
Danna and Master Sigeweard stared at Joyce and the glass jar.
Five minutes passed quickly, nothing happened, which made Ruby's pretty face turn cold.
She was about to accuse Murray of being a liar, but she saw Master Sigeweard's eyes widening, "Something crawled out."
"Ah? Something crawling out of mouth?"
Danna and the others' eyelids twitched and they looked over from a different angle.
The next second, everyone took a deep breath.
They saw a pale living creature about an inch in size slowly moving out of Joyce's mouth.
Danna and the others shouted in low voices.
Ruby even turned around and vomited.
She couldn't believe such a strange and terrifying scene before her.
Murray waved his hand to stop everyone from speaking, "Quiet!"
Ruby and the others quickly covered their mouths.
The white living creature moved very slowly and was very small, as if it had just been born.
It lingered on the edge of the mouth, as if it didn't want to leave the warm environment, but it couldn't resist the temptation of fried insects.
Finally, it slid into the glass jar with a plop and bit into the fragrant insects.
Danna and the others were all horrified.
After a minute, nothing else crawled out of Joyce's mouth, Murray snapped and covered the glass jar.
"Oh my god, it's a centipede, it's a centipede!"
"There is a centipede in Joyce's stomach? How did it climb in? "
"It's strange that he has to drink hot water and can only eat cold food. It turns out that he has to take care of the centipede's diet."
More than a dozen people present were whispering and staring at the living things in the jar in disbelief.
"Whoosh..." Murray took off the two silver needles with his backhand, and then asked someone to rinse Joyce's mouth with white wine.
Joyce rushed to the door and vomited.
When he was supported by Ruby and walked back, Murray patted the glass jar and said, "This is the source of the poison."
Ruby's pretty face was extremely embarrassed.
Danna asked with a sweet smile, "Uncle Joyce, how are you feeling now?"
Murray handed Joyce a glass of warm water.
"Ahem!"
Joyce's eyelids jumped and he took the glass with trembling hands.
In the past, every time he ate something hot, his stomach would churn and he would be in agony, so now that he was holding the cup, the old man felt some instinctive fear.
But he finally gritted his teeth and drank.
After a while, the cup was empty, and his stomach felt warm, but there was no more cramping pain.
The overwhelming torture was completely eliminated.
He was ecstatic, "Okay, okay, it really doesn't hurt anymore."
Ruby and the others could also feel that Joyce's energy had improved a lot.
"Murray, what on earth is going on?"
Master Sigeweard's eyes flashed with passion, "Why is there a centipede in Joyce's belly?"
Murray smiled, "If I'm right, Mr. Joyce likes to eat cold food..."
"Yes, I pursue the original taste and texture, so I especially like to eat cold food."
Joyce nodded honestly, "Lettuce, raw beef, sashimi, raw seafood... I eat them all."
Murray smiled and nodded, "Mr. Joyce accidentally ate centipede eggs when he was eating these things."
"Normally, gastric juice is enough to digest these things, but Mr. Joyce often eats raw and cold food, which provides a survival environment for centipede eggs."
He pointed at the centipede and explained, "So this centipede finally hatched and grew with the raw and cold food that Mr. Joyce kept eating."
Master Sigeweard shook his hand and his eyes lit up, "Centipedes are carnivores and they also like moist and dark places. So when Joyce eats hot food or boiled water, centipedes will make trouble in his stomach?"
"Moreover, centipedes, regardless of size, will detoxify every half a month. Once the toxins are discharged, they will circulate in Mr. Joyce's stomach."
"Because there weren't many toxins at the beginning, Joyce didn't have much reaction, but his internal organs were slowly failing."
He completely figured out the cause of the disease, "And last night, the accumulation of toxins reached the limit of the human body, so Joyce's fragile body couldn't bear the coma?"
"What Master Sigeweard said is absolutely correct."
Murray nodded, "I met Mr. Joyce last night and saw that he was poisoned. I gave him acupuncture to help him dissolve the poison and force the poison out."
"As a result, Ruby made trouble when the ninth injection was about to be administered, so in the end I just pulled out the toxin, but did not force the source of the poison out of the body."
Ruby's pretty face turned red and she was very ashamed, "It was your relatives who said you don't know how to heal..."
Master Sigeweard curiously asked, "Then why didn't you use the magic needle to force it out today?"
Murray explained with a smile, "I alerted it last night, and I'm going to use the acupuncture to force it. I guess it will be alert as soon as I do it."
"When the time comes, it will hide around or bite, and it will harm Mr. Joyce accidentally."
"So today I won't use threats, but food temptations."
Murray pointed at the glass jar, "It crawls out on its own."
When Master Sigeweard heard this, he sighed with emotion, "Murray, your skills are simply amazing. I admire you, I admire you."
Ruby asked hesitantly, "Then is my grandpa okay?"
"The poison was found, but Mr. Joyce is too injured and needs to take medicine for another month."
Murray looked at Joyce and smiled, "I will write a prescription for you later. Just take the medicine and decoct it according to the above."
Joyce hurriedly saluted, "Thank you for your hard work, Murray. If you have any conditions, just make them."
Murray slapped Ruby, "Call me master..."
