Soldier Assault: Rebirth Grassland Class Five Squad Leader

Chapter 99 Secrecy!

"It's really good, Xu Sanduo, it turns out that you still understand this!"

Old Wei said to Xu Sanduo with a look of enjoyment.

Now, everyone in Class [-] of the Grassland is sitting next to their beds, and at their feet, there is a yellow face plate.

In the dormitory, there is water vapor, and there is also a strange smell.

Xu Sanduo grinned, showing his big white teeth, he said.

"Actually, it's best until May, and it's not in season yet."

Li Meng turned around, gave Xu Sanduo a smile, and said, "Xu Sanduo, so you don't understand this, I thought you didn't know anything."

Xu Sanduo said: "This is passed down from my hometown. When the Dragon Boat Festival comes, every family will hang wormwood on the door. I have forgotten the specific function. It seems to be able to repel insects."

It turned out that Lao Wei also pulled Ma Zhi into their foot-soaking team, and Ma Zhi called Xu Sanduo again. I can't let them soak and exclude Xu Sanduo.

As for Xu Sanduo, after Lao Wei said the word health preservation, he thought of something that was passed down from his hometown, and his father used it occasionally to soak his feet.

It is wormwood. Xusan's family is in the countryside, and the most indispensable thing is wormwood. Every year in May and June, the ditches and trenches around their village are full of wormwood that is half the height of a person.

As for rural people, do they make good use of wormwood? Only when they meet the Dragon Boat Festival, do they collect some and hang them at the door for use.

There are also some who, like Xu Sanduo's father, get some wormwood to soak their feet.

However, even for foot baths, fresh wormwood is not used, but mostly useless and dried wormwood left during the festival.

And it was because of the thought of soaking feet that Xu Sanduo remembered that he had seen wormwood in their grassland. Although the season was not yet and the wormwood had just sprouted and was not very tall, he felt that it should be usable.

So, he took the flashlight and ran out, picked some wormwood seedlings and came back for everyone to use.

Fortunately, there is a lot of wormwood on the edge of their 5th class, so Xu Sanduo doesn't need to travel far to collect it.

When Xu Sanduo came back from the collection, he told everyone that the wormwood was used to soak their feet, and no one doubted it. Anyway, for them, just soaking their feet in hot water is almost the same as adding a few grasses to the hot water.

But it may be a psychological effect. After the wormwood is soaked in hot water, it will soon emit a smell, and the smell is slightly comfortable, which is why the old Wei said that the previous scene was very enjoyable.

If it is said that it is because of soaking in wormwood that it makes people feel comfortable, it may really be an illusion. Even if wormwood has some special effects, it is impossible to soak the feet for a while to have an effect.

In fact, to put it bluntly, it was the moment when everyone soaked their feet, they were completely relaxed. This person was already relaxed, coupled with the fact that the feet were soaked in hot water and smelled the smell of wormwood in the air, it gave people a sense of relaxation. wrong feeling.

"Ai Cao, I know something about it!"

And at this moment, Ma Zhi, who closed his eyes and enjoyed soaking his feet, said something abruptly.

As soon as he finished speaking, he attracted everyone's attention.

As if sensing everyone's gaze, Ma Zhi opened his eyes.

Seeing that other people were looking at him, Ma Zhi explained to them.

"Wormwood is one of the most common traditional Chinese medicines. Its effects are to dispel cold, remove dampness, stop bleeding, and reduce inflammation. If you really want to soak your feet with wormwood, you can add some ginger to it."

Old Wei said: "Old Ma, I can't tell, you still know a little about Chinese medicine."

Ma Zhi said: "Knowing the effect of wormwood is not because I know Chinese medicine knowledge, it is common sense in daily life, but different regions have their own opinions."

Li Meng asked: "Lao Ma, since there are different opinions in different places, is the effect of this wormwood only recognized by some regions?"

Ma Zhi responded to him: "Although there are different opinions in different places, the effects of wormwood are different. However, all I know are wormwood that has grown to a certain extent, like Xu Sanduo, and these are still so small when I get them back. Whether wormwood also has a corresponding effect is beyond my knowledge."

And Lao Wei, leaning back, got himself the most comfortable, and said: "It should have some effect, at least I feel pretty good. Besides, the smell is okay now, even if the effect is not good, it doesn't matter." Yes, after all, Xu Sanduo also said that the season is not here yet, if we want to get some mature ones, we won’t be able to get them.”

Ma Zhi thought for a while, and then said: "Although this wormwood has not grown up, the wormwood that has not grown up also has another effect."

As soon as Ma Zhi mentioned other functions, Lao Wei, Li Meng, Xue Lin and even Xu Sanduo became curious. They also wanted to know what the functions Ma Zhi did not mention.

And Xu Sanduo also wanted to know, after all, it had no effect on wormwood, and he didn't expect anything else.

Ma Zhi looked at them all full of expectations, and he was still very satisfied. At least as the monitor of the fifth class, he now felt that he knew more than everyone else, but it was different.

Ma Zhi, feeling satisfied in his heart, smiled and said to them.

"When the wormwood is young, it is very tender. When it is used at this time, the taste is better. By the way, the wormwood can be eaten, especially when it has not grown up. When it is fully grown, it is best not to eat it. Eat it again."

Although Xu Sanduo knew enough about wormwood, it was the first time he heard that wormwood could be eaten directly. He had never heard of it from the villagers since he was a child.

"Can it be eaten? How does it taste? How do you want to eat it? Wouldn't it be eaten raw?"

Old Wei asked, when it came to new ingredients, he was indeed more curious than others.

As for Li Meng and Xue Lin, after hearing that the effect was only edible, they lost their curiosity. After all, although they don't have a lot of food, at least there is no shortage of food.

Seeing that Old Wei was interested, Ma Zhi moved towards Old Wei and said to Old Wei.

"You can try it tomorrow, get some fresh wormwood, wash it, soak it in boiling water, and then mix it cold, it tastes very refreshing, you can also cook porridge with wormwood leaves, and add wormwood to the porridge leaves, it is very fragrant when rolled, and most importantly, such porridge can dispel dampness and cold."

Old Wei was not satisfied with what he heard, so he asked Ma Zhi again.

"There are only two kinds of cold salad and porridge, can't they be fried?"

Ma Zhi thought for a while, and then said: "You can chop it up a bit, and then mix it with eggs and fry it. It's also delicious, but we don't have enough eggs here, so I don't recommend such a waste."

Old Wei thought for a while, and then he said, "You have reminded me of what you said, maybe there are other ways to do it. I will try to do it after training tomorrow."

What Old Wei said made Ma Zhi curious, so he asked Old Wei.

"What are you going to do? What are you going to do? Tell me first."

Seeing Ma Zhi's curious face, Old Wei chuckled.

"Secret! You'll know when you make it tomorrow, right? I'm going to cook tomorrow, so you can't compete with me."
