Golden Fishing Village

Chapter 555 558. Golden Thread Lotus (2)

Golden Thread Lotus, a Chinese herbal medicine, the whole plant can be used as medicine, and its taste is flat and sweet.

In traditional Chinese medicine, this herb has the effects of clearing heat and cooling blood, dispelling wind and dampness, detoxifying, relieving pain, and suppressing cough. It is mainly used to treat difficult diseases such as hemoptysis, bronchitis, nephritis, cystitis, diabetes, hematuria, rheumatoid arthritis and even tumors.

Because it has the effect of curing all kinds of diseases in folk legends, it is known as the "King of Medicine".

Hearing Ao Muyang's words, Ao Xiaomi was immediately excited: "Did you see it? This is the golden thread lotus!"

Yang Shizi pursed his lips in dissatisfaction and said: "How can golden thread lotus be so easy to find? My grandfather said it is very rare and he has hardly come across it!"

Lu Zhizi was a little puzzled: "What is golden thread lotus? These children seem to know it, but why haven't I heard of it much?"

Ao Xiaomi rushed to introduce it to her, and finally said: "I know golden thread lotus. Teacher Ao has a small box at home. It was given to him by Grandpa Cheng in the city. Teacher Ao is my cousin. I often go to learn Chinese medicine from him, so I know all this."

Ao Muyang also learned about golden thread lotus when he followed Ao Zhisheng to learn Chinese medicine. He was also puzzled: "There is golden thread lotus on our Dalong Mountain? This thing is really rare."

Wild golden thread lotus can only grow in deep mountains and old forests with primitive ecology where few people go. It requires a special natural cycle of climate and a clever combination of sunlight and rain before it can grow.

The price of golden thread lotus has dropped sharply now. There are even some products on Taobao that cost dozens of yuan per kilogram, but they are all artificially cultivated short-term golden thread lotus, which has no medicinal effect.

Wild golden thread lotus is an extremely rare mountain delicacy with extraordinary value. It is said that it was a special imperial product of the palace in ancient times. Now it has flowed into the folk and cannot flow into ordinary people's homes.

Ao Muyang knew that the box of golden thread lotus that Ao Xiaomi mentioned was given to Teacher Ao Zhisheng by Cheng Deming. It is an absolute wild treasure. A box of half a kilogram is 18,000 yuan, which means 36,000 yuan per kilogram!

After confirming the herbs in his hand, Ao Muyang asked Ao Xiaomi: "Where did the general find it, did you see it?"

Ao Xiaomi shook his head: "No, it came to me with this in its mouth to exchange for chocolate..."

"Did you give it the chocolate that the general eats?" Ao Muyang narrowed his eyes immediately.

Ao Xiaomi smiled awkwardly: "Uncle Xiaoyang, I didn't know that the general can't eat chocolate."

"It's not that the general can't eat it, but that all dogs can't eat it." Ao Muyang reminded.

After saying that, he called the general over, and then showed it the bunch of golden thread lotus, motioning it to lead the way to find it.

The general was pretending to be crazy, tilting his head and blinking his eyes, looking stupid.

Ao Muyang pretended to beat it: "Hurry up and take me to find this thing."

The general was so scared that he shrank his neck, his eyes were timid, but he didn't move.

Lu Zhizi protected it and said, "Maybe it just happened to come across this and bit off a plant. How can it remember where this herb is exactly?"

Ao Muyang said, "It should remember. Animals and birds are very sensitive to this herb. Golden thread lotus has a nickname called bird ginseng."

"Why does it have such a nickname?"

Ao Muyang smacked his lips and said, "It has something to do with a legend. It seems that it is said that a long time ago, a fairy bird had a leg injury and limped to the valley to find medicine. It came to the mountain spring and saw golden thread lotus with shiny leaves. It pecked and ate a few of them. In a few days, its leg injury was healed."

"The fairy bird does not know that there are herbal farmers paying attention to it. The herbal farmers follow and observe it. When they find that the injured or sick fairy bird needs treatment, they will go to find the golden thread lotus. "Chen Xianlian is here to eat..."

Ao Xiaomi shook his head and said, "This legend is fake. How can mortal herbalists track fairy birds? If fairy birds can be tracked and observed by mortals, they are not fairy birds."

Ao Muyang patted his shoulder and smiled friendly, "You are such a nitpicker. Do you know that your parents are so good at arguing?"

Yang Shizi said maliciously, "Uncle Yang, I will help you beat him up."

Ao Muyang gave him a brain collapse, "Don't be so violent. Learn more from your father. Your father is brave and resourceful. He is a figure in your Wangjia Village. Don't be so reckless and rude, otherwise it will be embarrassing for your father, understand?"

Dad was praised, Yang Shizi's face was bright, and he raised his head and chest and kept silent. No matter who he looked at, he looked at him with a caring look.

He thought that silence was a sign of wisdom.

The general did not go to find Jinxianlian. Ao Muyang urged him anxiously, so he hid behind Lu Zhizi.

There was no way, Ao Muyang had to give up.

They did not find Jinxianlian, but they made other discoveries.

There is a small stream on the mountain. The weather is dry this year, but strangely enough, the stream on the mountain has not stopped flowing and has been flowing.

They camped for lunch at noon and found such a small stream.

This time they walked to the Longwang Village area of ​​Dalong Mountain. Ao Muyang had not been here much and was not familiar with the surrounding environment, but the children of Longwang Village often climbed the mountain and took them to find a stream.

"There are groupers here." The child said in a show-off manner.

He was talking about groupers, also known as freshwater groupers, which are native to Central America. They were introduced into China by the Chinese fishery department in the 1990s and then multiplied.

The water quality of the streams in Dalong Mountain is particularly good, which is very suitable for the survival of freshwater groupers. I don't know when freshwater groupers swam here and eventually formed a group.

Ao Muyang looked at the stream and soon found some small schools of fish.

These small fish were only as long as his fingers, with spindle-shaped bodies, black stripes on both sides of the trunk, and some melanin blocks in the middle of the vertical black stripes. They shook their heads and tails happily in the water.

Seeing this, Yang Shizi was very disappointed: "They are all fish cubs."

Lu Zhizi asked Ao Muyang: "Is this freshwater grouper the largest it can grow to?"

Ao Muyang understood what she meant and shook his head: "No, they can't be eaten. They are all fry. I'll look for them. There must be big fish among them."

In fact, fry can also be eaten. There is no need to worry that this will lead to their genocide. As long as they are not caught with electric nets, the stability of the freshwater grouper population will be fine.

Freshwater groupers are very fertile. They are only five or six millimeters long when they are born. They can start laying eggs after they grow to a few centimeters. When the water temperature is right, the eggs can hatch in just 48 hours.

Walking along the stream, he found large freshwater groupers, some of which were about the size of his palm, and some were even larger.

The water flow of this mountain stream is very good, and there is a pool in the middle, but it is not deep, only about one meter.

Seeing the small pool, a group of boys took off their clothes and wanted to jump in.

It was hot and climbing the mountain, everyone was sweating.

Ao Muyang quickly stopped them: "Don't go into the water, the water we use for cooking at noon is here."

Yang Shizi said nonchalantly: "It's okay, it's dirty, and you won't get sick if you eat it."

Ao Muyang said: "Don't embarrass your brave and resourceful father."

Yang Shizi stopped talking again, raised his head and chest, and acted majestically.
