Coming out of Cao's mansion, Wu Liang took Dian Wei and went straight out of the city.

He was going to find a kind of artemisia, Artemisia annua.

Don't look at the artemisia mentioned in the "Elbow Reserve Emergency Prescription" is called "Artemisia annua", and the special drug for the treatment of malaria is also called "artemisinin", but in fact, after later scientific studies, Artemisia annua and Artemisia annua are two different plants at all, and the medicinal effects are completely different.

The only artemisia that really contains artemisinin is Artemisia annua.

Speaking of which, Cao Shuo's life is also great, and the time and place of malaria are right.

The geographical environment of Juancheng is more suitable for the growth of Artemisia annua, and unlike Artemisia annua, Artemisia annua is a relatively hardy plant, and the annual flowering period is from August to November.

Therefore, although it is late autumn, the yellow artemisia has not yet died.

If it was a little later, Wu Liang might really be powerless, after all, he didn't study botany, and he really couldn't find the withered and deformed yellow artemisia from a pile of withered yellow weeds.

And even if you find it, I don't know if it's worth treating malaria.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for Wu Liang to find patches of wild yellow artemisia on the side of the path outside the city.

It is extremely adaptable, both now and in the future, so it can be found everywhere like a weed in the right temperature zone, and even salinized soil can thrive.

Wu Liang carefully identified the appearance of this piece of yellow artemisia that was already slightly wilted, and then pulled off some branches and leaves and sniffed it.

It's pungent and smelly!

You shouldn't be wrong.

Wu Liang immediately took out a dagger and cut a large handful of Artemisia annua, and asked Dian Wei to also pull out a large handful for backup.

This is the advantage of Dian Wei, he never asks Wu Liang why he does this, as long as it is what Wu Liang says, he will not hesitate to implement it.

This is different from ordinary people's execution, and it is no wonder that Boss Cao likes it so much in history.

……

When I returned to Caofu, it was only half an hour.

The Cao family was all looking forward to it, and when they saw Wu Liang coming in, several ladies led by Mrs. Ding immediately stood up with anticipation on their faces.

"Are you ready?"

And Cao Ni's little girl rushed directly towards Wu Liang, but when she got to him, she covered her nose and retreated, wrinkled her little face and said angrily: "Hmm, it stinks, it stinks to death!" ”

This is natural, and Artemisia annua contains a volatile oil, from which this smell comes from.

Now that Wu Liang's artemisia has been cut or torn off, this volatile oil is naturally more volatile and can smell this smell from afar.

Moreover, this kind of smell is not only disliked by people, but also by cattle, sheep, chickens and ducks.

"Wu Sima, what are you bringing here?"

The stench soon filled the entire room, and Mrs. Ding and several other ladies couldn't help but cover their noses with their hands.

"Grave grass, weeds from mass graves."

Wu Liang said with a smile.

As soon as she heard this, Mrs. Ding immediately pulled Cao Ni behind her, frowned and said, "No wonder it's so pungent and smelly, such an unlucky thing, go and throw it out quickly, don't let others be contaminated with filth again!" ”

The rest of the ladies took a step back in unison.

This kind of thing associated with the dead is naturally an evil thing in the eyes of the people of this era, and it cannot be touched...... What's more, didn't Wu Liang say before that Cao Shuo was contaminated with the evil spirit of the mass grave so that he suddenly couldn't get out of bed?

"Madame doesn't know, this thing is a medium to expel the evil qi in the second son's body, as the so-called poison fights poison, when I chant the divine tune for the second son later, I still need to use this thing as an introduction to export the evil qi."

Wu Liang continued to be a serious man.

"In that case......

Mrs. Ding hesitated for a moment, then glanced at Cao Shuo, who was lying on the bed and shivering, and finally endured the smell and nodded, "Then you can do it quickly, don't delay Shuo'er's life." ”

"Yes."

Wu Liang said again, "Please Madame order someone to bring an iron basin and a bowl, in addition, there is this wrestler outside the door, please come in and help me." ”

"Still not doing it?"

Mrs. Ding glanced at the servant next to her, and immediately someone bowed down to do something.

A moment later.

The iron basin and bowl were sent in, and Dian Wei brought a fist-sized pebble in advance, put a large handful of yellow artemisia into the iron basin, and grinded it with the pebbles without saying a word.

In later generations, artemisinin was extracted using a very cumbersome extraction method, which not only required the assistance of chemical agents, but also required dozens of processes to extract layer by layer, which Wu Liang could not do at all.

And the "Elbow Reserve Emergency Prescription" finally mentions "Artemisia annua's grasp." Take two liters of water and wring the juice. Obey it. The efficacy may not be sufficient.

That's why Wu Liang decided to use a more direct approach.

Directly grind the yellow artemisia into a puree, mix it with some water and wash it away, then use a linen cloth to simply filter out the large impurities in it, and then pour the filtered liquid into Cao Shuo's mouth.

Anyway, Artemisia annua is just pungent and smelly, and it does not contain other toxic components.

"Squeak-squeak-squeak-"

Accompanied by the sound of Dian Wei grinding Artemisia annua.

"Madam, I'm ready to start, ask Madame to take care of the family on your behalf, don't interrupt during the giving, don't ask any questions, and do everything as I say."

Wu Liang turned around and said to Mrs. Ding.

"Exactly."

Mrs. Ding naturally nodded in agreement.

"Ahem!"

Wu Liang cleared his throat, recalled a familiar melody in his heart, and finally shook his head in a fake mode, while showing the Mai Ba singing voice that dominated KTV for the first time in the late Eastern Han Dynasty:

"Ahh

"Ahh

"Ah Saidi, Ah Sai knife, Ah Sai big brother with a knife-"

“……”

“……”

“……”

"Take an egg, take an egg, take an egg, take an egg, take a knife—"

"Ahh

"Auntie's swimsuit, auntie's stripping, auntie's swimsuit, auntie's stripping-"

"Auntie, come on—"

"Ahh

"Auntie depressed yo-depressed yo-"

“……”

This song was a smash hit in later generations, although it was mixed, but it was definitely a random person on the street who could hum a few words, worthy of the word "Divine Comedy", and naturally worthy of the word "Divine Tune".

However, when the Cao family heard Wu Liang's destructive voice sing this "divine tune", they were shocked, and they really had a feeling of back pain.

They are also considered to be large families, and they have heard some music before.

The musical instruments of the Han Dynasty are beautiful in terms of "sad sound", so the melodies are mostly gentle and long, sometimes with some emphasis from northern folk songs, but rarely like this divine comedy, the rhythm is bright and the collision is fierce.

Especially when I saw Wu Liang screaming and shouting at times, he looked completely intoxicated and couldn't extricate himself.

The Cao family was drunk.

Really drunk.

There is such a shocking tune in the world, and the ears have been miscarried...... Today is a long insight!
