Chapter 111 Bamboo Ling Anthelmintic Medicine

Others hurriedly picked up the nematodes on the ground and on the stove.

One of them quickly grabbed a nematode that was about to burrow into the soil, and threw it back into the big basin.

They washed the nematodes that fell out before throwing them into the iron pot.

"It's best to cook it for half an hour, and cook it thoroughly before eating."

When they heard the reminder, they looked up, only to see the back of the little lady walking away quickly, and they didn't even have time to call her to eat worms together.

Qin Min later asked them about the taste.

“Not very tasty, tasteless, slippery, a bit tough on the outside, like undercooked noodles.”

Qin Min couldn't help feeling a little awed when he thought of them picking up a handful of nematodes and stuffing them into their mouths like they were eating noodles.

The fact that there were many bugs growing in the pool quickly spread to other people's ears.

Except for a few people who could eat nematodes, the others knew that the bottom of the pool was full of worms, and they were a little worried, so they gathered around Fu Minglai's room to discuss a solution.

Fu Minglai was hemming the moon-white gown, when he heard that Jun frowned slightly, did any worms grow in the pool in his previous life?

The others sighed, "Well done, why are there worms growing in this water?"

"Or buy some rat poison and pour it into the water to see if it can kill these bugs."

"I'm afraid those insects are not dead, they poisoned us first."

Everyone wanted to get rid of the insects, but they were afraid of damaging the pool water, so they were caught in a dilemma, and they couldn't help but frown.

Those who have eaten nematodes comforted: "Let's eat the worms together, we will change the cooking method next time, and the worms will definitely be delicious."

Liang Dawei was puzzled and said: "Aren't you afraid that if this bug enters your stomach, you will have a stomachache?"

"We didn't swallow this worm raw, and the little lady also said that it can be eaten after it is thoroughly cooked."

Liang Dawei looked at Qin Min in surprise.

Qin Min nodded, and the bugs can also supplement protein,
Knowing that no one drank Liang Dawei's boiled water, she said, "It's just that the water in this pool can't be used directly."

"There should be a lot of insect eggs in the water."

"I read in medical books that when the worm eggs enter the stomach, they will grow into worms to absorb nutrients from the human body. People will lose their appetite, become thin and lethargic, and have a dull stomach pain from time to time."

The others had never thought that there would be insect eggs in the clear and transparent pool, and upon hearing this, they inexplicably felt a little uncomfortable in their stomachs.

Fu Minglai's eyes darkened slightly, and he suddenly remembered that there was a long period of time in the previous life, when everyone lost their appetite, their complexion became pale, and their bodies became thinner.

Could it be because of these bugs?
It's just that there shouldn't be many bugs in the pool in the previous life.

Therefore, none of them noticed the existence of the worms, they just thought that their bodies were getting worse because of the heat and lack of appetite to eat.

Gao Zexia's face changed slightly, "Mingyi sometimes eats very little these days, could it be that there are bugs in her stomach?"

Qin Min was a little surprised, the little girl ate a lot when she was with her.

The others all sank when they heard this.

They went to Yanshan to collect salt before, and Liang Bo and Fu Mingyi stayed here. What they eat and use these days is the water in the pool.

Qin Min said, "I'll go find Uncle Liang later to get some insect repellent."

Uncle Liang was lying on the bed recuperating from his back injury, and his back was getting better day by day.

When he heard about the bugs, his expression changed drastically.

In the past few days, he often had pain in his lower abdomen. He thought it was because he was getting old and his stomach was getting worse. It seemed that he also had worms in his stomach.

He hurriedly said: "There are a lot of dried bamboo shoots in the medicine cabinet, they should be useful."

Zhuling is a kind of fungus, shaped like soil clods or potatoes that have been stored for a long time. It is slightly poisonous and can be used to repel insects.

Qin Min peeled the bamboo shoots, ground them into powder, and divided them into Liang Bo and Fu Mingyi.

The insect repellent ingredients in this bamboo ling will be ineffective due to boiling and heating.

Qin Min coaxed Fu Mingyi to finish taking the medicine with a spoonful of medicine powder and a spoonful of wild vegetable soup.

Fu Mingyi drank the medicine for a few days, and finally got rid of the worms in her stomach, and her expression became quite listless.

Qin Min touched her head, and everything will be fine.

Some people didn't take it seriously at first, but when they saw that someone really had worms in their bodies, they all fell silent, and even began to suspect that they had worms in their stomachs.

Qin Min thought that everyone had drank the water from the pool after returning to the thatched hut from Yanshan Mountain, and he was afraid that they were all tricked.

She ground a lot of bamboo ling medicinal powder and made everyone swallow it.

Quite a few people actually expel worms.

So far, no one dares to drink unboiled water.

The stove is always lit, and the only remaining iron pot is boiling water except for cooking.

Seeing a gap in the stove, everyone hurriedly moved the iron pot on the stove to other stoves.

If the stove is cracked, there is still a spare, and another one can be built.

But if the iron pot breaks, if they can't find a replacement tool for boiling water, they might have to drink the pond water full of insect eggs.

The crowd sighed.

"We can make do with it now, but it's not a long-term solution."

"Boss, you go to the county to see if anyone knows how to deal with these bugs, and buy some iron tools by the way."

Qin Min knew how difficult it was to eradicate nematodes, and didn't think anyone in the county would know how to do it, but iron tools were still needed, and some daily necessities were also needed.

Qin Min followed the others to leave the mountains and head for the county town.

This trip, a total of four people came, and the others stayed in the mountains to take care of the injured.

As he approached the county seat, Qin Min changed into a moon-white gown and held on to a jade pendant paper fan.

Fu Minglai gathered her hair that was loose on her shoulders into a bun, tied it into a bun, fixed it with a hair tie, inserted a white jade hairpin to fix it, and then put on a thin golden hair crown.

Sun Chengyi and Gao Zexia were stunned when they saw the new Qin Min.

The dress of a young lady is much more noble than that of a son from a rich family.

Liang Dawei sighed: "I was worried that the little lady couldn't do anything..."

Fu Minglai interrupted him, "Young Master."

Liang Dawei was stunned for a moment, quickly reacted, and changed his words: "Young master can't control this kind of clothes, I didn't expect it to be so suitable, and the face is really well painted."

Gao Zexia on the side nodded shyly in agreement.

Fu Minglai looked at the thick eyebrows on her face, "How did you get those eyebrows?"

Qin Min chuckled, "I used pot ash to draw it, isn't it okay?"

Thatched huts have no cosmetics.

Before Qin Min set off, he wiped some black soot from the bottom of the pot to outline his eyebrows.

The black ash under the pan is not like ink, it won't dissolve even if it gets wet, unless you rub it hard or add detergent, it will smudge.

She changed the original curved moon eyebrows into straight, thick and long sword eyebrows.

Thinned the black and gray, and cast shadows on the contours of the face, making the whole face look more three-dimensional, changing from delicate to handsome.

As for the Adam's apple, she was already half shorter than men of the same age.

It can be said that the age is a few years younger, and it is said that the Adam's apple is not prominent because it has not yet developed.
