Chapter 647: Medicinal Herbs

So Lao Bai led the way, Li Xun and other hunters followed, the agents dispersed into a fan, and the whole team carefully marched in the sparse mountain forest north of the Thirteen Castles.

The ambushes and traps that were originally imagined to appear did not appear.

The surrounding mountains and forests are as calm as any other ordinary place.

Not to mention the evil beasts, not even an ordinary small animal.

Soon, everyone came to the small hillside that Lao Bai said and found the location of the herb.

The herb is placed on a slightly raised rock on the hillside.

The strange thing is that on top of the herbs, there is also a small stone, as if to prevent these herbs from being blown away by the wind.

The agents were scattered all around, heavily armed, guarded and on guard.

Several full-time reconnaissance agents are still carefully monitoring the movements of the surrounding mountains and forests with high-powered binoculars, searching for any possible enemies.

Li Xun and the other hunters, including several major agents, cautiously approached the rock where the herbs were placed.

The strange thing is that there don't seem to be many medicinal herbs on the rocks, only a dozen or so, but the unique smell it emits seems to last for a long time.

Even after a night, it still stubbornly emits its distinctive scent.

This made the hunters and agents even more solemn and cautious.

Li Xun could even hear that the sound of everyone's breathing, including the sound of their heartbeats, was accelerating as they got closer to the herbs.

There was no doubt that not only Li Xun, but everyone else had already smelled the unique smell of the herb.

This unique smell gives people an invisible and tremendous pressure.

It is reminiscent of the villagers' successive bizarre suicides.

Everyone is secretly worried about whether they will become the next person to commit suicide inexplicably.

Everyone got closer, and gradually they all saw the appearance of the herb clearly.

Wang Ruyi said with some surprise: "Hey, why does it seem that there are two kinds of herbs?"

Yang Zhenghui got closer, looked more closely, and said tentatively: "One looks a bit like ginseng, but it is by no means ginseng, I don't know what kind of medicinal herb it is, and the other long leaf seems to be a little like calamus, could it be the rhizome and leaves of the same plant?"

"No, not the same plant, it's two plants. Xue Qizhen who answered.

Xue Qizhen said as he looked at Li Xun with some confusion.

Xue Qizhen saw that Li Xun's eyes were also flashing with doubts and incomprehension.

"Yes, it's two herbs, but I didn't expect them to be. Li Xun also nodded.

Only then did everyone remember that Li Xun and Xue Qizhen were originally proficient in medical skills, and it was not unusual for them to recognize these two medicinal materials.

Wang Ruyi asked, "Master, what kind of medicinal herb is this?"

Li Xun squatted down, looked at it carefully, and then pointed to the rhizome of the plant that looked like ginseng and said: "This is the root of Yuanzhi, which can be used in medicine, and the plant with slender leaves, called calamus, can also be used in medicine." ”

Ambition?

Stone calamus?

Although everyone didn't know much about medicine, most of them had heard of the names of these two medicinal materials.

Li Xun said as he reached out and gently removed the stone that was pressed against Yuanzhi and Shi Iris.

Lao Bai said in a deep voice: "Li Xun, be careful, there are other things on the medicinal herbs." ”

Li Xun nodded, "I know that it should be the saliva in Bailu's mouth, the saliva has dried up, but the ingredients are still left on the two medicinal materials." ”

"Yes, just now I was contaminated with the saliva in the mouth of the white deer because of the medicinal herbs, so I didn't dare to bring it back to you directly, I feel that the saliva of the white deer is very weird. Lao Bai said again.

Everyone suddenly realized.

Indeed, although the white deer is not a white muntjac, who knows whether the white deer's body, or the saliva of the white deer, will be highly poisonous?

Anyway, the poison of the white muntjac is really scary.

Li Xun didn't care about this, he picked up the two medicinal materials with his hands, and said: "So I'm also wondering if the saliva of this white deer is doing tricks, because according to the medicinal properties of Yuanzhi and Stone Calamus, they will not have a bad effect on people, let alone make people commit suicide, on the contrary, they can really be used in medicine to cure diseases." ”

Picking up two kinds of medicinal herbs, Li Xun gently rubbed them with his hands, and even put them to his nose and smelled them.

Li Xun's action was very natural, but many people's hearts suddenly rose to their throats.

Some people even couldn't help but exclaim softly.

"Be careful!"

Everyone looked back at Shui Xinyu who spoke in surprise.

Shui Xinyu was made red-faced, and she, who had always been generous and decent, suddenly became a little clumsy.

"What do I mean...... They're definitely poisonous......" Shui Xinyu explained with some flusteredness.

Chen Lingxi smiled and said, "Sister Shui, don't worry, Brother Li Xun's body is known to be invincible to all poisons, didn't I tell you before?

Chen Lingxi's words made many people realize that Li Xun's body was indeed invulnerable, and they all looked at Li Xun with envy.

Who doesn't want to have a body that is invincible?

And at this critical moment, the words "no poison invasion" truly reflect its value.

Wang Ruyi came back to his senses and asked curiously: "Master, what do you mean when you say that the two medicinal materials, Yuanzhi and Stone Calamus, will not have a bad effect on people, but can still be used in medicine?"

Li Xun put down the medicinal herb and explained: "Yuanzhi This medicinal material has many pharmacological effects, such as phlegm, swelling, etc., including calming the nerves and intellectuals, as for ......"

Wang Ruyi interrupted Li Xun's words in surprise: "But Master, how can medicinal materials with calming and nootropic effects make people commit suicide?"

"It's strange here!" Li Xun continued: "It's not just Yuanzhi that has this effect, including calamus, it also has a sedative effect, so pharmacologically speaking, it's hard for me to believe that the combination of these two drugs will have a bad effect on people." ”

Xue Qizhen agreed: "Yes, when it comes to the combination of Yuanzhi and Stone Calamus, I can't help but think of a recipe. ”

Li Xun raised his eyebrows and asked, "Dingzhi Xiaomaru?"

"Yes, in Sun Simiao's "Qianjin Fang", there is an introduction to Dingzhi pills, which mainly use four kinds of medicinal materials, including Yuanzhi, calamus, ginseng and Poria cocos, and the pills can cure forgetfulness, panic and insomnia, restless nights, mental disturbances and other symptoms after taking them. Xue Qizhen said slowly.

Li Xun also nodded: "Not only Dingzhi Xiaomaru, but also the pharmacology of "Happy Scatter". ”

The two capable people who were proficient in medical skills were discussing with each other, and the people on the side were extremely surprised when they heard it.

At least they all understood, Yuanzhi and Shi Irises were together, and they should not have caused harm to the human body.

But in fact, the harm does exist, and many villagers have committed suicide, which is ironclad evidence.

Wang Ruyi asked cautiously: "Master, is it really Bailu's saliva that is doing the trick? Could it be that its saliva catalyzes two drugs, in fact, the calming effect is extreme, and it is really possible to make people drowsy, that is, it is similar to the effect of hypnosis, is it possible, Bailu uses these two drugs to hypnotize people?"

Li Xun did not answer immediately.

Xue Qizhen thought about it and said, "It's not impossible. ”

Li Xun glanced at Xue Qizhen, and then looked at the two medicinal materials in front of him, but he was still inconclusive.
