Chapter 41: Atractylodes

Once you've replenished your energy, it's time to hit the road, the terrain in the jungle is more complicated, and there are no roads at all, so it's almost impossible to navigate through the forest.

It didn't take long for several of us to have more or less abrasions on our faces and hands.

And my stomach is a little uncomfortable, maybe I drank too much wild vegetable soup in the past few days, and I am a little malnourished.

In fact, it's not just me, Zhao Si and a few of them also feel this way.

These days, everyone eats some, everyone should feel uncomfortable, if it is not good to have a stomach, fortunately not far away I found a kind of herb, atractylodes.

In the past, when I was in the army, everyone had to learn some knowledge about traditional Chinese medicine, no matter how much you could master, the famous classic of traditional Chinese medicine "Compendium of Materia Medica" had to be memorized.

Maybe at first you will think that this is useless, after all, you are not a Chinese medicine practitioner, but you have a lot of skills, and you may be able to use it when you can, such as in the current situation.

Atractylodes atractylodes is a kind of Chinese herbal medicine for the treatment of gastrointestinal discomfort, whether it is the "Compendium of Materia Medica" or the "Shennong Classic of Materia Medica" have records of this herb.

Its appearance is recognizable, with leaves spread out and a bit like dandelions, but in the middle there is a cyan thing that looks like a fruit.

"This grass is called atractylodes, which can treat gastrointestinal discomfort, pick some and go back to boil water to drink. ”

Zhao Si nodded and ordered everyone to start working.

Herbs must be dug up carefully, and many herbs must be dug up in their entirety along with the roots they are buried in.

Atractylodes here is not a large area, there may be fifteen or sixteen plants, but we can't be insatiable to dig them all up, although these things are gifts from nature, we have to take them in moderation.

"Alright, let's walk ahead and see if we can find anything. ”

After loading the atractylodes, we continued to move forward, and later found a lot of medicinal materials, some of which are more common in the countryside, such as purslane, a herbal medicine for coughing.

There are also some that I have not seen, but I have only seen in medical infusion, and the kind of herbs with uncertain efficacy have not been picked.

It's a medicine that is poisonous, and it's best not to touch it when you don't know about it.

……

Camp.

Xiao Qian was boiling water to wash vegetables, and Nie Chunxian went to the waterhole to catch a few fish, and planned to make a fish soup at noon.

During this time, fish is not eaten every day, because every time you eat fish, it is more complicated, you have to get a place away from the camp when you deal with it, and you have to throw away the leftover fish bones after eating it.

Because there are bears and other predators in the woods, they will not rush into the camp if there is a fire, but if they are attracted by the smell and wander around the camp, it will be tense.

It's hard for them to survive, and all they have to do now is to make their lives as comfortable as possible.

Giving five to the two young men, Nie Chunxian asked them to go a little farther away and disembowel the fish.

But the two lads soon returned.

"Mr. Nie, those people are guarding the door, if we go out, we are afraid that we will be robbed. ”

A young man scratched his head and explained with some concern.

Nie Chunxian was stunned, why haven't those people left yet?

The entrance to the camp.

A group of people were lying lazily on the ground, they saw Su Ye taking people out in the morning, and they haven't come back yet, it seems that Su Ye will not come back for a while.

Now that it's almost time for lunch, these people are starting to grow bolder.

"Why haven't you left?"

Nie Chunxian frowned and looked at these people, she was not so bad as to drive people away, she was worried that these people would make Su Ye unhappy and make them angry.

"Mr. Nie, we have nowhere to go. You can do it, okay, let's stay. ”

It was a lewd-looking bald head who spoke, and when he spoke, his eyes did not forget to wander around on Nie Chunxian's graceful and figure.

Xiao Qian, who looked at her, felt a chill.

"Dead bald! Where do you look!"

Nie Chunxian didn't care, and said: "It's impossible to take you in, you better go, go back to the beach, maybe the search and rescue team has already come and can't find anyone." ”

"Hehe, Mr. Nie is really good at coaxing people, but unfortunately we are not three-year-old children, and the search and rescue team has not appeared for more than a month, so it is estimated that the outside world does not know about this at all. Didn't you want us to go back and let us drink the northwest wind so that we would starve to death?"

"Bah, I didn't care about you all this time, why didn't I see any of you starving to death?"

Xiao Qian took a sip, I have never seen such a shameless person.

"There was Mr. Huang before, he led people to get a lot of food and drink, but you not only killed him, but he also robbed us of the food we had accumulated for a long time, this trick is ruthless enough. ”

Nie Chunxian sighed, it turned out that these people were not leaving for this matter.

There was a lot of food, enough for them to eat for ten days and half a month, but Su Ye said first, even if these people starved to death in front of her, they couldn't give a single piece of grass.

In order not to make Su Ye hate himself, Nie Chunxian didn't plan to pay attention to these people anymore.

"Look at the door, don't let them in. ”

After explaining a word, Nie Chunxian turned around and left.

Xiao Qian glared at her viciously, turned her head and turned her head to follow.

Cooking was taking place in the camp, and the smell came out, as did the people outside the camp.

Some people sucked their noses and saliva flowed out.

Grunt......

The stomach was dissatisfied, and the bald head touched the round belly, Su Ye is not here today, no matter what they say, they have to ask for something to eat.

As for the next meal, I don't care about it for now.

Wild vegetables and meat are boiled in the pot, and this kind of meat and vegetable food is delicious, but unfortunately there is no seasoning.

Xiao Qian flipped the food in the pot while fanning the heat with her hand.

"It would be nice if there was a spice, I haven't had my favorite ketchup in a long time, and I can't remember what it tastes like." ”

Xiao Qian licked her lips, a little regretful.

Nie Chunxian sat on the side a little absent-mindedly, because from time to time he could hear people outside calling him.

Those people begged themselves to be merciful and give them something to eat.

She used to take advantage of Su Ye's absence in the original camp to help those people, but in the end she got that kind of evaluation, although she didn't hear it with her own ears, but Su Ye and Xiaoqian would not deceive themselves.

So, she's a little tangled now.

The kindness in her heart drove her to be kind again, but reason told her that she couldn't.

"Mr. Nie, those people are upsetting, why don't you just give them something to eat and send them away?"

Xiao Qian was also a little irritable, there were still three injured people in the wooden house who needed to recuperate, and those people were chattering and arguing like crows, which would affect people's rest.

Nie Chunxian raised his head after hearing this, maybe this was a good idea.
