It is not difficult to identify astragalus.

As long as you have a little knowledge of Chinese herbal medicines, you should be familiar with astragalus.

Even ordinary people often use astragalus or astragalus in soup.

Astragalus is also a type of Astragalus.

Just because the region of production is different and has a different name.

It's just that the astragalus in front of Ye Youran is a little strange.

It was as if it had withered.

The leaves are actually withered yellow.

And the place where it grows is also strange.

Within a radius of one meter, there is not a single grass.

"Don't be in a hurry to pull it out yet, this Huang family is really successful. ”

Ye Youran saw Zhu Bi'er and was about to pull up the astragalus.

Hurry up and stop it.

"What do you mean?"

Zhu Bi'er asked puzzled.

"It is not withered, but alive. ”

Ye Youran squatted down and observed the astragalus, and said to Zhu Bi'er:

"Look at its leaves, though they are yellow, but their leaves are full and fresh. ”

"It's not a wither, if I'm not mistaken, it's supposed to change its color for self-preservation, so that its color is the same as the color of the land. ”

Ye Youran observed the subtleties, so he became more and more surprised.

In nature, there are many creatures that can change their color.

Chameleons are one of them.

In order to protect itself, the chameleon will often make its body the same color as the one around it.

This way it won't be detected by predators.

But plants that can change color are rare.

And this Huang should not have the ability to change color.

Of course, anyone who has studied biology knows.

Life's ability to adapt to its environment is amazing.

This astragalus has been growing here for a hundred years.

Over time, it has acquired the ability to change the color of its body.

This is probably the reason why it has grown here for hundreds of years without being discovered by anyone or animals.

"That's true, but why isn't there any grass around it?"

Zhu Bi'er wondered.

"It has been growing here for a hundred years, and the rhizome must be very developed, and all the nutrients around it are absorbed more than it, and ordinary small flowers and grasses cannot survive at all. ”

Ye Youran said with certainty

Even Ye leisurely guessed.

It is precisely because there is no grass around it that it changes its color.

As far as possible it itself is not not unnoticeable.

This had to make Ye Youran sigh, nature is really magical.

Life is so great.

In nature of survival of the fittest.

In order to survive, all life is constantly evolving and perfecting itself.

All life that can survive, even the humblest plants.

All of them have their own merits, and they are also worthy of admiration.

Existence has its own reason for existence.

And today's astragalus brought Ye Youran's perception will affect his future life.

But that's all for another time.

At this time, Ye Youran sighed.

But Ye Youran couldn't let it go.

Ye Youran needs this astragalus.

It has overcome obstacles in a hundred years and survived until now, and it is not easy.

But it met Ye Youran today, and it was doomed to defeat.

This is the rules of the game of natural selection.

It is also the cruel embodiment of survival of the fittest.

Ye Youran used a knife to slowly loosen the soil around the astragalus.

The size of this astragalus is beyond Ye Youran's imagination.

Ye Youran wasted the power of nine cows and two tigers.

Only then did the astragalus be whole, and all the rhizomes were dug up.

The average astragalus is only twenty or thirty centimeters long, and the fingers are thick.

But this astragalus is arm thick, arm long.

With such a huge astragalus, Ye Youran is really the only one to see in his life.

But this astragalus is wild after all.

The most fundamental difference between wild and cultivated astragalus is the roots and hollows.

The root system of wild astragalus is many, fine and disordered.

And the artificially grown ones are much cleaner.

Finally, there is the hollow issue.

The hollow is the hard wound of wild astragalus.

Generally speaking.

Most of the artificially planted astragalus will be picked in two or three years.

Plenty of water and nutrients.

There will be no hollowing or blackening on the inside.

Wild astragalus is due to insufficient nutrition or beyond the harvest age.

It is common for black hearts and hollow hearts to appear.

Unless it is a wild astragalus grown in a special geographical location, it will have a better appearance.

The astragalus in Ye Youran's hand is a wild one.

Hollowness is inevitable.

But this does not prevent Ye Youran from liking it.

Compared to the appearance.

Ye Youran cares more about its quality, or medicinal gas.

After the astragalus was in his hands, Ye Youran couldn't help but be overjoyed.

Suddenly, they were a little reluctant to absorb its medicinal gas.

Because it's hard to find.

Ye Youran may not be able to meet it again in the future.

"Ye Youran, look at the mouse, it's about to wake up. ”

However, at this moment, Zhu Bi'er suddenly said nervously to Ye Youran.

For Zhu Bier, no matter how good the astragalus is, it has nothing to do with her.

She cared more about the fact that the rat she was afraid was waking up.

"Don't hurt it, I'll just absorb the medicinal qi from it!"

Ye Youran glanced at the rat and decided to let it live.

If it weren't for this mouse, Ye Youran wouldn't have obtained this astragalus.

People must learn to be content and grateful.

As for why the rat's body emitted a rust-colored medicinal gas.

Now Ye Youran understands that it is because it has some pollen on its body.

These should be the pollen of the rape flowers.

The pollen of rape flowers also has medicinal properties.

Almost all pollen contains some component of ascorbic acid to a greater or lesser extent.

The content of ascorbic acid in buckwheat pollen is as high as 90.7%mg/100g.

The pollen in rape is as high as 78.14mg/100g.

Ascorbic acid can increase the microdensity of capillaries.

Reduces the permeability and fragility of blood vessels.

It is also a commonly used drug in clinical practice to treat arteriosclerosis.

The rat also didn't know where to go to feed, and it was stained with pollen from rape flowers.

In an off-the-beaten-path place like Yuxiu Island.

The pollen of rape flowers can emit a rust-colored medicinal smell.

This is also amazing.

And since it has happened, Ye Youran is in line with the principle of waste and shame.

Still absorbed the poor rust-colored rape flower from the rat's body.

Because maybe Ye Youran will need to use the pollen of these rape flowers.

Rust-colored medicine is good.

Even if it was just a little bit, Ye Youran still felt refreshed after absorbing it.

But the rat was frightened.

Grabbed by Ye Youran in his hand, it thought it was finished.

Who knew that Ye Youran just grabbed it and released it in less than two seconds.

This frightened it into the grass and departed like a rabbit.

After letting go of the mouse, Ye Youran said solemnly to Zhu Bi'er:

"Zhu Bi'er, I want to absorb the medicinal qi of the astragalus, you help me protect the Fa, and I must not be disturbed by anything, you know?"
