Chapter 1258 Taste the herbs
Island!
A breeze blew by, and the fragrance was refreshing. The small green leaves secretly emerged from the pear blossoms, and the contrast between white and green looked particularly beautiful.
Along with the sound of the stream, there was a sound of digging from inside. A triceratops was happily eating its favorite plants and chewing them.
From its happily waving tail, it is easy to tell that it must be eating its favorite food.
At this time, Yang Xuan was squatting on the ground, using a simple metal hoe to dig into the ground continuously. After two hoes went down, something like a carrot appeared in front of Yang Xuan's eyes.
This island is very strange. Chinese medicinal materials are not only from today but also from ancient times, and many plants are also mixed together.
For example, some bananas and the like, let alone hundreds of millions of years ago, even bananas from more than a thousand years ago are very different from those now.
The same goes for medicinal materials. Many of the medicinal materials available today may have looked different in ancient times.
After picking a basket full of medicinal materials, Yang Xuan came to the creek. Now he has developed a habit of meditating on the formation every night and sleeping during the day to collect herbs and explore the island.
Regardless of whether Yang Xuan got the system or after he got the system, he hardly cooked food and never touched Yangchun water with his fingers. Now there is really nothing he can do. The storage space cannot be opened, and even the Terminator cannot be released. There are three people in the wooden house.
Without any strength and a semi-invalid person, he really can't be of much help.
Even if Zimo asked to come, Yang Xuan would not allow it. It was not that he was afraid of dinosaurs, but that there would be poisonous insects and the like. What if Zimo was bitten? He was already half-disabled. It was difficult to mobilize his life energy now.
It uses the remaining life energy in the meridians.
After washing all the medicinal materials, Yang Xuan would personally taste the medicinal properties of each newly discovered medicinal material. He would put some leaves and roots into his mouth and chew them, quite like Shen Nong tasting hundreds of herbs.
Refining elixirs and preparing prescriptions are completely different things. Yang Xuan definitely doesn't know as much about prescriptions as Tong Piaoyun, so he can only try tentatively.
After tasting all the medicinal materials, Yang Xuan shook his head helplessly. Only two or three had medicinal properties. The other dug out plants and vegetables had greater medicinal properties than medicinal properties.
But the consolation is that there is a sweet potato-like medicinal material that can actually disinfect wounds.
Healing function.
After drinking some water from the stream, filling a dozen water bottles and placing them on the back of the Triceratops, Yang Xuan rode the Triceratops back towards the wooden house.
Every time he rode the Triceratops back, Yang Xuan would take a new path. When the Triceratops passed through a low bush, Yang Xuan's eyes were sharp and a touch of purple appeared in front of him.
"Xu~~~~"
After calling the Triceratops, Yang Xuan turned over and thought, Damn it, this island is sick. Touching a purple plant, Yang Xuan looked at it in disbelief.
Isn't this just perilla?
In fact, seafood allergy is a serious matter. Zhou Xinqin may not be purely allergic to seafood, but just allergic to crustacean seafood.
Some people develop pimples on certain parts of their bodies and are accompanied by itching after eating shellfish. In severe cases, they may even experience diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, and drastic changes in water retention.
In fact, perilla is no stranger to daily life. Many people have eaten snails and know that some perilla leaves should be added when frying snails. But why is this done? I guess not many people know. At most, they think it is
Acts as seasoning.
In fact, this is not the case. Perilla leaves not only have a flavoring effect, but also have a detoxifying effect, which is what everyone often calls anti-allergic effect.
After picking all the perilla leaves, Yang Xuan couldn't help but smile, and hurriedly drove the Triceratops back.
"Yang Xuan, are you here so early today?" He saw Yang Xuan's face from afar and waved to Yang Xuan.
"Hahaha, we picked it faster today. How is Zhou Xinqin doing?"
"It still looks the same, and I even vomited once at noon."
Yang Xuan frowned. The situation was getting more and more serious. Could it be that his medical skills were really that bad? The damn formation completely sealed his energy.
If you can open up a little storage space, you can at least take out the silver needles. Now even acupuncture can't be done.
Although there is a lot of metal in the wreckage of the cabin, to meet the requirements of the silver needle, it will not work simply by rubbing it.
I took a clay jar that looked like cow dung from outside the wooden house, filled it with fresh water, put in cleaned perilla leaves, and added some herbs that I picked and dried. The most important thing is that I dug up a plant like a sweet potato today.
Put it in and cook slowly.
The cow dung medicine jar was used by Yang Xuan himself deep in the mountains on the island.
It is made of clay, but unfortunately the craftsmanship is limited, so besides being practical, what is made is ugly.
There was smoke from the kitchen, and soon the potion began to boil.
There is no filter for the medicinal residue, so Yang Xuan made the spout very small and saved the step of filtering the medicinal residue.
He held a bowl of steaming Chinese medicine in front of Zhou Xinqin, helped her up, and slowly let her take it.
"Cough cough cough~~~~" Perhaps because she drank too quickly, Zhou Xinqin suddenly coughed violently.
He looked at Yang Xuan, his dull eyes gradually brightened as he watched Yang Xuan treat him.
After filling Zhou Xinqin two bowls, Yang Xuan began to massage her. Acupuncture didn't work, so he could only use massage, but the effect was relatively slow.
"Ah! Yes, I can feel it. My legs feel numb."
When Yang Xuan was massaging her legs, Zhou Xinqin exclaimed, her eyes looking in disbelief at the ulcerated thighs with no visible skin, and a look of excitement on her face.
"Really?" Yang Xuan smiled in surprise. Are you kidding me? His medical skills were only half-qualified, but he was able to save a person with a severe seafood allergy and ulcerated legs. It was really not easy.
It’s okay to have half-assed medical skills. The main reason is that there are no medicinal materials. It’s difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without rice. Everything here is unknown, and many medicinal materials are unrecorded.
It's like a beginner who knows how to play an instrument. If you ask him to start tuning the strings of the instrument before he has learned much, this is obviously making things difficult for him.
"What's the matter, what's the matter?" Jia Pengpeng, who had nothing to do outside and was basking in the sun, heard the cheerful voice inside and ran in immediately.
"Pengpeng, I, I can feel my legs."
"Really? Yang Xuan, you are great."
"Hmph, when Xinqin's legs are unconscious, who says I'm a quack? I have formal qualifications to practice Chinese medicine."
"Tch, who knows if you bought it."
"For your uncle, luckily it's Chinese medicine. I can still find medicinal materials. If the Western medicine Xinqin fails, there will be no medical equipment in this damn place. There won't even be a stethoscope."
