Chapter 302: Konjac
If you really admit your mistake, then you will be wrong, Su Yang asked, "What happened to you?" ”
"Poison, the people of our tribe have been poisoned. www.biquge.info"These dozen people were sweating profusely, and they came all the way.
"Poisoned? How serious. ”
During this period, there were still many poisonous plants, but to say that there were very few poisonous things, and it was even more legendary to see blood and seal the throat. Coupled with the environment, people are now very resistant to toxicity, and they will not easily win the bid.
But this tribe was collectively poisoned, foaming at the mouth, convulsions all over the body, and itching all over. Now it's time to go to the Niutou tribe to find a witch for help, but I'm afraid it's too late.
Su Yang did have some medicines in his hands, but when it came to detoxification, the level was not enough.
Saving people is like fighting fire, even people from other tribes can't sit idly by, "We are a rock tribe from the mountains and forests, and we came out of the Niutou tribe in the morning. In this way, leave a few people to take us to your tribe, and the rest continue to the Minotaur tribe for help.
I've got some medicine with me, maybe I'll be able to use it. Don't worry, if I want to rob you, I don't have to bother so much. ”
The situation was urgent, and these people agreed without much thought. After the others left, Su Yang's team also set off, not too far from here, in fact, it can be estimated, if you don't take him, you can find it by yourself.
On the way, I learned more information, there are not many people in this tribe, called called konjac. Today, after the tribal hunting party went out, the rest of the Konjac tribesmen ate a dug tuber, which led to collective poisoning, and it was so serious that they had to go to the Niutou tribe for help.
This is also why the small tribes in the vicinity will send good things to the Niutou tribe when they find them, because it is inevitable that they will encounter situations like today and ask for help.
After walking out of the plains and into the sparse forest, there were some Yin Mountains, that is, the light of the day was not very good, and after another twenty minutes, they arrived at the place.
"Sue, that's our tribe, do you think it can be cured?" They heard that Su Yang had followed Wu, and although he hadn't learned it yet, he definitely knew something, so he was full of hope.
Soon they came to a cave that was not very large, and saw the poisoned man, lying on the ground, men, women, and children, and it seemed that they had all eaten that kind of thing.
This is food poisoning, it is basically impossible to spread through the air, and physical contact is no problem, but he still let the team wait outside, and only brought a dozen or so people inside.
He looked at a little girl first, and judging from the eyes, face, and tongue, including breathing, the poison should not be fatal.
"What kind of poisoning is it, show me quickly." Although there is no fear for their lives, it is impossible to say if it drags on, especially since there are so many children among them.
Then, I took him a few flat round tubers, which were about the same color as yams, and smelled them, but there was no peculiar smell, and I carefully cut them a little, and found that the tubers were similar to yams, and they were more like taro.
"Are there any seedlings?" He didn't recognize what it was.
But after seeing the stem and leaves, it suddenly dawned on me, it turned out that this thing was konjac, the petiole was thick and cylindrical, light green, with dark purple spots on it, and the leaves were palm-shaped compound leaves, which were very distinctive, and there were almost no plants with the same color, so it was called konjac!
And konjac is a thing that is poisonous all over the body, and tubers are the most toxic, and whoever eats it raw will win the bid. As for the symptoms of poisoning, he is not very clear, no one in modern times is stupid enough to eat konjac raw. After cooking, it is basically non-toxic.
"How can you eat it raw, this thing will be poisoned if eaten raw." He was happy now, because he had found another thing to grow, which was not easy. In particular, the environment in which konjac grows is required, the light is too strong, the soil is dry, and the soil is too compact.
It just so happens that the environment here is more suitable, but if you don't encounter this today, it will be difficult to find out.
"Sue, you really understand. I burned it in the fire before, and I ate it before it was too cooked. ”
It turns out that this tribe has eaten before, a small amount of food, this time because it has not hunted meat for several days, so it is eaten in large quantities, because the konjac is large and has not been cooked, there must be a problem with eating. Besides, it is not enough to simply put it in the fire and burn it, and if you eat too much, you will also win the bid, and the taste is very bleak.
He quickly recalled that if it was a raw yam and his skin was allergic, he could apply vinegar or ginger juice, and the water vapor could also slow it down.
Konjac is an alkaline food, which is a good thing, and for people who eat too much animal acidic food, with eating konjac, you can achieve a balance of acid and alkali in food. In the same way, he thinks that he can use sour fruits, plus ginger plants to detoxify, at least without any side effects.
Immediately mobilize everyone to look for fruit, not sweet, but sour. In addition, he thinks that in this environment, he may be able to find plants of the ginger family, just apply it, and there is no need to eat it.
Everyone acted separately, he and some people went to the place where konjac grows, sure enough, the environment in which it grows is more yin, the soil is loose like sand, but not quite, the moisture is relatively sufficient, and now it is the harvest season, and the seedlings have turned from green to yellow.
In addition, he found a kind of wild ginger nearby, which is a bit like a relatively rare and rarely eaten wild vegetable in later generations, named Yanghuo ginger and Yanghe. He plucked some of the sprouts that had come out, and they smelled spicy.
Hurriedly let a warrior of this tribe try a little, it is really spicy, just see if there are any side effects, if not, then you can eat it with sour fruits.
He doesn't have any burden, those poisoned people are already like this, let's be a dead horse doctor. The Niutou tribe will not be able to arrive until tomorrow at the earliest, and besides, it is definitely impossible for Wu Lao to come, so it is still unknown whether he can detoxify.
Those who asked for help were also stupid, and they didn't know to bring some konjac tubers. In fact, it was panicked, and when the hunting team returned, they saw that the tribesmen were poisoned, and they hurried to ask for help, but they definitely couldn't think it through.
"Okay, just these two things, find a few people to feed some first, and see if it works." Generally speaking, it takes about half an hour to know the situation.
After arranging it, he let the warriors handle the prey, which was the harvest of the previous tribe's hunting team, a cow weighing seven or eight hundred catties, with meat to eat.
At the same time, he personally cooked konjac to see if he could eat it, and if he could, he would take away the seeds and vigorously promote the planting in the coming year. In the process of growing, konjac will emit a faint smell, the beast will not move, and it is useless for others to dig it, so it is safe no matter where it is planted, just waiting for the harvest, or a perennial plant, once and for all.
The most important thing is that konjac is a hair thing, and one pound of konjac tubers can be boiled out of ten pounds of konjac, which is a good helper for winter.
Thinking of it, he did it, he demonstrated that he had peeled a little skin, which was considered to have been handled by himself, and the rest would be handled by the rest of the people, which was faster. (To be continued.) )
