Chapter 438: Smoke Bombs

It's true that artemisinin is a cure for malaria, but it takes time.

The old man in his previous life tried more than 1,000 kinds of plants and spent years before he finally got artemisinin.

Lin Yi is standing on the shoulders of giants, and he doesn't need to engage in any other plants, as long as he extracts artemisinin, but this is not so simple.

It is impossible to say that it is extracted, and it takes many processes to finally get the desired artemisinin.

So here, Lin Yi has to face a choice.

Is it true to use the method of traditional Chinese medicine to treat malaria, or to extract artemisinin directly?

Both have certain advantages and disadvantages.

For example, traditional Chinese medicine is convenient, as long as there is a suitable Chinese medicine, after decoction, drink a few more.

As for artemisinin, as a special drug, it takes a lot of time to get it out, but after you get it, it also has great benefits!

"Yes!"

After thinking about it for a while, Lin Yi smiled and prepared to 'do both'.

It takes time to extract artemisinin, but now the crew needs to be treated immediately, so use traditional Chinese medicine first, and then ...... You can start extracting artemisinin again!

Maybe you can get some kind of prize?

……

Half a day passed.

You need to finally stop your car in a small city, and then, according to the navigation, you finally find your destination.

A humble Chinese medicine shop!

The shop is not big, only a dozen square meters, but just by getting closer, you can smell the fragrance of medicine.

"Amazing!"

Lin Yi said.

Chinese medicine gives people the impression that it is bitter and unpleasant, but now it smells like a fragrance?

"It's normal. ”

Xue Yao seemed to be able to see through what Lin Yi was thinking: "In fact, not all Chinese medicine is bitter and smelly. ”

"For example, angelica is also one of the traditional Chinese medicines, and it is very good, but the taste is very fragrant, especially when stewing soup, even if you just throw two whiskers into it, you can make the whole pot of soup filled with the fragrance of angelica. ”

"At the same time, 'ingredients' such as red beans are also one of the traditional Chinese medicines. ”

"Therefore, a lot of Chinese medicine is actually very fragrant. ”

"The reason why this place smells so good is just that they put some thought into it when they put it out and put it in their collection. ”

"I see!"

Lin Yi nodded and understood.

It's very simple.

For example, put the 'fragrant' herbs in a place with more air circulation, and put the bitter herbs in a closed collection box.

Of course, this is just one of the easiest ways to deal with it.

……

"Two ......"

The owner of the Chinese medicine shop, who is an authentic Chinese, now looks like he is old, but his spirit is very good, he saw Lin Yi and his family walking in, and Xue Yao's words were all experts, so he nodded with a smile: "But what kind of Chinese medicine do you need?"

"Come on. ”

Xue Yao looked at Lin Yi: "What kind of medicine is in the prescription?"

Lin Yi smiled: "Pepper ......"

Xue Yao: "????"

At this moment, Xue Yao was a little confused.

What the hell, what the hell is a cure for malaria?

Of course, Xue Yao clearly knew that pepper was also one of the traditional Chinese medicines, but at this moment, she always felt strange.

"And Artemisia annua, Xanthus ......"

Fortunately, it's not just pepper, Lin Yi quickly said a large list of Chinese medicine names, and added: "Among them, Artemisia annua, I want the kind with the scientific name 'Artemisia annua', not the kind of Artemisia annua that is often said among the folks, I don't know if there is here?"

In fact, many people have a misunderstanding about Artemisia annua.

Many people believe that Artemisia annua is 'Artemisia annua'.

But in fact, Artemisia annua, which can extract artemisinin, is called Artemisia annua, and in the traditional Chinese medicine system, it will be called Artemisia annua.

At the same time, the existence of artemisinin is afraid of high temperatures, and once the temperature exceeds 60 degrees, it will make artemisinin lose its effect.

Therefore, whether this recipe can be useful or not depends on whether the medicinal materials are suitable and the correct way to deal with it.

The general Chinese medicine prescription is a high-temperature decoction, but in the case of Artemisia annua, it is obviously inappropriate.

In addition, Lin Yi also said several more traditional Chinese medicines.

Among the dozen flavors of Chinese medicine he said, Artemisia annua, pepper and Xanthus have a good effect on the treatment of malaria, of course, Artemisia annua is the most of them, in addition to several auxiliary herbs, as for the others......

'Smoke bombs'!

It's very simple.

There is no cure for malaria in this world, and malaria also infects hundreds of millions, if not hundreds of millions, every year!

This kind of global problem, if there is a special drug, how much of a sensation will it cause?

You can't have the heart to hurt people, and you can't have the heart to prevent people!

Lin Yi didn't intend to harm anyone, but he wasn't so generous, letting the real prescription be known to others and making wedding dresses for others.

So, it's still necessary to get some smoke bombs or something.

"Yes!"

The old Chinese medicine doctor nodded slightly, and at the same time was a little strange.

"But your recipe is really strange, I have been practicing medicine for many years, but I have never seen such a prescription of yours. ”

"We naturally have our uses. ”

Xue Yao said lightly, in front of outsiders, she always had a temperament that rejected people thousands of miles away.

"That's right. ”

The old Chinese medicine doctor smiled: "It's that I asked too much." ”

In this industry, there are many taboos.

For example, prescriptions.

Traditional Chinese medicine is too complicated, all sects, all families, have their own unique prescriptions, people come to grab medicine, and they have to tell you what this prescription is for?

Wouldn't that be telling you the secret recipe of the family?

Therefore, the old Chinese medicine doctor did not continue to ask, but said, "Dosage?"

"How much do you have here, how much do you want. ”

Old Chinese Medicine Doctor: "......"

"It's the first time I've seen a guest like you. ”

He was even more strange, but Xue Yao made it clear that he was half an 'industry person', and he didn't have much to say, not to mention, wouldn't he do it if there was a business coming to the door?

Although he opened this Chinese medicine shop, more often because of his own interests and hobbies.

……

Grab the medicine, pay for it, and drive back!

Xue Yao's physical strength naturally didn't matter, so he nibbled on two loaves of bread casually, and then continued to drive the car and returned the same way.

It's just that compared with when I came, there was a big bag of Chinese medicine in the car!

On the way back, Lin Yi also began to ponder.

"It seems that these Chinese medicines are no different from the Chinese medicines in the previous life, and they are fortunate in misfortune. ”

"But it's really weird......"

"What kind of connection does the two worlds have?"

"Why do the two worlds have exactly the same name for these Chinese medicines? Is it a coincidence? Or are they parallel worlds?"

These questions seemed to be very far away from Lin Yi, but as a traverser, he could hardly control himself from thinking about these things.

And in thought, the hospital has arrived!
