Traditional Chinese Medicine: Back to the years when educated youths went to the countryside

Chapter 227 He who makes good use of poison is a good doctor

Geranium is a common plant found throughout the country.

There are actually three types used as Chinese medicinal materials, namely geranium, geranium and wild geranium. Their appearance is slightly different, but their medicinal properties are similar.

Its main functions are to dispel rheumatism, dredge meridians, and relieve diarrhea.

Modern research has found that geranium contains tannins and hyperin, which have antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, astringent, antispasmodic, analgesic, and diuretic effects.

It is recorded in "Southern Yunnan Materia Medica", "Sichuan Herbal Medicine" and "Compendium of Materia Medica".

As for the usage, if it is to treat enteritis or dysentery, you can use one tael of geranium and one tael of ferngrass, boiled in 90 ml of water, and take it three times a day for one to two doses.

It's just that it's hard to mess with people at night, so just use geranium alone.

As soon as he heard that it was Tu Lie Lie, Wang Shao understood.That thing is not uncommon in the fields. You can find it by going around Nanwa.Dang even grinned.

He said in his heart: Uncle Chengzhou is not old, but he is a good man. Not only does he give himself the limelight in front of the leaders, but he is also so quick in prescribing medicines. I should get closer to him in the future.

Looking down at the Dogwood and August Fried that he brought back, the smile on his face became even brighter, and he quickly said hello and left.

Wang Chengzhou didn't know what he was thinking about hugging his thigh.Even he felt tired after running this day, so he returned home early with Yu Hua and others.

As soon as I arrived at the door, I saw a slender figure like a little old man, wandering back and forth with his hands behind his back. When he heard the footsteps, a pair of big eyes immediately stared over, but he didn't rush to say hello to him, but jumped. Feet:

"Father, mother, let me just tell you? My brother must be fine!"

"I came back so late. I guess I took those educated youths to the mountains and went crazy!"

"Wang Chengzhou, tell me honestly, what good things have you done?"

"It's really abominable! We went to the fields early in the morning to catch bugs, and we were so tired that we could hardly stand upright. It's better for you to go sightseeing around."

"No, I also want to apply to join the Autumn Protecting Team!"

The whirring sound was heard to be Wang Aiduo.

This girl was jumping around Wang Chengzhou, saying she wasn't worried, but she was hanging around the door for who knows how long waiting for him to come back.

Wang Chengzhou felt warm in his heart, took out a fruit and stuffed it into her little mouth.

"Wow!"

Si Ya raised her head, retreated and chewed at the same time.From the initial resistance, to the end of the meal, he even stuck out his little tongue and licked his lips, looking at him eagerly, "Any more, one more!"

Wang Chengzhou pushed her forehead and was really speechless for this damn girl.He casually took out a large handful from his pocket and handed it to her, "This thing is called dogwood. It's not easy for me to bring it back. Don't eat too much. It will hurt your stomach if you eat too much."

"Young Master is teasing me!"

Si Ya happily took it, biting it until her lips turned bright red, "How could such a delicious food cause diarrhea?"

"If you want to leave it for your parents, just say so. If you want to make this happen, it's okay!"

"I am no longer a child, Wang Chengzhou!"

At this moment, Wang Honghe and Li Yuzhu came out of the house. Hearing the voices of the brothers and sisters, they finally breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but smile on their faces, "What is it, so precious? Give me a taste." "

“August Fried and Dogwood.”

Wang Chengzhou sorted out the cloth bag and took out a few in total. It was not enough for the whole family to share, so he handed it over embarrassedly, "I originally brought back a lot of them, but they were all chased away by the bears. …”

"Forget it, next time I go into the mountains, I'll carry a bag just to bring more."

Wang Honghe and Li Yuzhu originally wanted to comfort him with a smile. It didn't matter whether they ate a few wild fruits or not, but they realized something when the words came to their lips. Their eyes suddenly widened and they exclaimed:

"San'er, what are you talking about, bear?"

"You bastards, what on earth did you do? How did you meet that thing? Were you chased away by a bear?"

"My mother, are you going to see the crops or risk your life?"

Seeing his parents' panicked expressions, Wang Chengzhou originally wanted to explain it in an understatement, but he remembered what the village chief Wang Tielin said. There would be a meeting tomorrow morning. Wang Honghe and Li Yuzhu would know sooner or later, so there was nothing to hide.

Immediately, he recounted what happened in detail.

After listening, Li Yuzhu turned pale with fright and did not speak for a long time.After a while, he poked his forehead hard with his finger and said angrily: "You, why are you so serious?"

The whole family knew what she was referring to.

In order to save a group of educated youths from out of town, Wang Chengzhou actually put himself in danger and took the initiative to attract Xiong Xiong's attention. He didn't take his own life seriously.

People are afraid of death, aren't you afraid of death?
You still have parents, brothers and sisters in your family, and you are just eighteen and have not yet gotten married. If they disappeared all of a sudden, the whole family would be in ruins, right?
However, in the simple concept of rural people, acting bravely is a very honorable thing. This is how children are educated since they were young. If your son really does such a thing, you can't beat him or scold him, right?
But, having said that, if it really comes to a life-or-death situation, don't you, silly kid, have any fear in your heart?

Even Wang Honghe didn't speak for a while.Shiveringly, he rolled up a cigarette, but forgot to light it. He opened his mouth and said seriously, "You did it right!"

When Li Yuzhu heard this, he became anxious and kicked him.

Wang Aiduo remained silent the whole time. When he saw his parents about to fight, he pretended to watch the excitement with raised eyebrows. He hid his tears and hugged his brother's arm tightly, not letting go as if he was coquettish.

"It's all right."

Feeling the concern of his family, Wang Chengzhou smiled and scratched his head, "I'm sure of everything."

"Although that bear is big and very fierce, I'm not afraid of it."

"I don't have the confidence to escape. Those educated youths are not mine. How could I trade my life for theirs?"

"You little bitch, stop talking!"

Li Yuzhu stared at him in shock, and then let out a long sigh, "There is an old saying that good people don't live long and will cause trouble for thousands of years. I finally understand. The reason why good people don't live long is because they sacrificed for the righteousness."

"San'er, your father and I are getting older, and we will have to rely on you for support in the future!"

"Next time something like this happens, think a little more."

Wang Chengzhou felt a chill in his heart and nodded quickly.

Wang Honghe took a puff of cigarette, but the wrinkles on his face were deeply marked. He said a little worriedly: "You said that your Master Tielin will drag you to hold a meeting in front of the whole village tomorrow morning?"

"Yes."

Wang Chengzhou was also upset, "Master Tielin has a grudge against me because of Xiaojiao's abortion. He is probably looking for some shoes for me to wear."

"Don't call him father!"

Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, Li Yuzhu cursed angrily: "That old guy really doesn't have the generosity of an elder at all. As a village chief, he actually targets a descendant of a grandson. If he doesn't show off, we will Don't give him a show!" Wang Aiduo sat aside, shaking and knocking his knees. Hearing this, he laughed mischievously.

This girl is better at being a good person than Wang Chengzhou, and she is more knowledgeable than Li Yuzhu. She probably didn't expect that her mother would be so childish and grinning happily.

"okay!"

Wang Honghe rolled his eyes at her and sighed:

"It's right for someone to be angry because he kissed his daughter."

"Hey, it's hard to say whether San'er did the right thing or wrong in this matter. Caiyun is a woman in her early twenties. She originally had no worries about remarrying, but it's hard to say after she has a child."

"If she really falls out with her family in the future, we can't ignore her."

Li Yuzhu also frowned.As a woman, she knows the difficulties of women.Xiaojiao has a son from her ex-husband, and even if she leaves another family, the man may not know how he will treat her.

Wang Chengzhou followed her wishes and helped her save the child, but he also got into a lot of trouble. The first thing he had to face was the revenge of Wang Tielin's family!

"Hey, let's have a conference."

Wang Honghe put the cigarette butt under his feet and stamped it out, feeling relieved for his son, "It's not like a few years ago. You are a young man and a health worker in the village. What can he do to you?"

"At worst, we can quit doing this job!"

Si Ya frowned and said nothing.

When Li Yuzhu heard this, she became impatient and said, "I wish everything was as simple as you think!"

"Under the current situation, Uncle Tielin probably wants to put the job on the three of us. Are you going to do it if you don't want to? Then a bear has entered the village!"

"Let's not talk about destroying crops. If that beast really hurts someone in the future, let alone Wang Tielin, I'm afraid all the leaders in the team will be eager to find a scapegoat to take the responsibility."

"Our three children must be the unlucky guy. Can he escape?"

This analysis was thorough enough, Si Ya nodded her chin next to her.

Wang Honghe really started to feel worried, scratching his head and saying:
"That's why I wanted to let the three of them get out of the trouble as soon as possible!"

"Originally, those wild boars were enough of a headache, and they also brought a bunch of talented soldiers with them. No matter how capable the three of them were, they wouldn't be able to command them to fight, right?"

"How about we go to the commune to talk about this matter? Don't you know the public security commissioner? Ask him to report the situation?"

Wang Chengzhou shook his head when he heard this, "Dad, Lao Wu is very busy. Last time I asked him to guard the village and help guard against the native masters, he didn't even care about the wild beasts, and he wouldn't even come."

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but think of Luan Hongying again.

The senior sister has already used Wu Guoshan to find a job similar to that of an auxiliary police officer, but she is still far from officially becoming a police officer. If she can be equipped with a gun, she might be able to help deal with the giant bear.

Although there are many firearms in the village, as mentioned before, most of them are homemade fire guns, which have limited power. They can be used to kill rabbits, but trying to kill an adult bear is like a joke.

Wang Chengzhou didn't do anything to it with his spear, and even angered it so much that it almost couldn't come back.Ordinary people holding guns cannot be killed by a single shot, but black men pounce on them and designate them to be scrapped. Even resuscitation can be avoided. It is only right to prepare for reincarnation as soon as possible.

The family sat together with sad faces on their faces.

Thinking that her son would be criticized in front of all the young and old men in the village tomorrow morning, Li Yuzhu became agitated, slapped her thighs and stood up, "Eat!"

"Three of us have been running around all day. We are probably hungry already. We can wait until we have dinner to talk about anything we have to say."

"Uncle Tielin's thoughts are really vicious. If you ask me, these two children in our family are not allowed to call him father in the future!"

Unexpectedly, she was trying to compete here. Wang Honghe glared at her, took a deep breath, and looked speechless.

Wang Aiduo blinked his big eyes, as if he wanted to say something, but stopped.

When he heard the word "poison", Wang Chengzhou's eyes lit up, he couldn't help but stood up, and said excitedly: "I have it!"

"What...what's the matter?"

Not only Wang Honghe, but also the whole family looked over and wondered what good idea he had.

"He who makes good use of poison is a good doctor!"

Wang Chengzhou immediately thought of the herbal medicine he had seen in the back mountain and recited a sentence in a formal tone.

August happened to be the harvest season. Because of the lack of compatibility and the toxicity of the stuff, Wang Chengzhou didn't take advantage of it.Now, isn't it time to use it?

This meaningless sentence made the whole family feel confused.Wang Aiduo was very curious, so she dragged him and kept asking what he meant.

However, no matter how coquettish she acted, Wang Chengzhou did not tell his family how he was going to solve the predicament at hand.

It is actually because the herb is too toxic and easy to obtain. If it spreads and falls into the ears of some people with malicious intentions, it may cause big trouble.

"Shen Nong's Materia Medica" says: Its juice is fried, and its name is Shegong, which is used to kill animals.

Tao Hongjing even said bluntly: Pounding the stalks to extract the juice and frying them in the sun is called a shooting weapon. Hunters use arrows to shoot animals, and the person in the middle will also die, so it should be solved quickly.

"Bielu" points out simply and clearly: A slight bitterness can lead to great poison.

They are all talking about a relatively unique and famous medicinal material in traditional Chinese medicine - Aconitum.

Aconite, Aconitum, and Tianxiong all belong to the same plant, and all belong to the rhizome of Aconitum, a plant in the Ranunculaceae family. The side growth is Aconite, the main root is Aconitum, and the tuberous root without epiphytes is Tianxiong.

The three grow from the same plant, but their medicinal properties are different, and their usage is extremely different, which is extremely magical.

In some extreme cases, aconite is used to restore yang and save the body, Aconitum can remove cold and dampness, but Tianxiong is a miracle medicine for aphrodisiac.

In ancient times, Aconitum was often made into a poison called Sheyi, which was used to feed arrows to kill birds and animals.

It is highly toxic, but its preparation method is very simple.

Although Wang Chengzhou knew a lot of antidote methods, he did not dare to spread such dangerous things casually, so he kept silent to his family.

However, it is used to control the overflowing wild boars and get rid of the bears that threaten the villagers.

With confidence in his heart, Wang Chengzhou immediately felt happy and even ate two large bowls of dinner.

Wang Honghe and Li Yuzhu didn't know why, their faces were dark, and they were still worried about him.

Wang Aiduo pouted her lips and was so angry that she ignored her while eating.I feel that my own brother is nothing, and I don’t regard my own sister as one of my own!
