Chapter 61: Red Peony
After the mountain people have finished eating, Brother Nongwu has also eaten. Bai Yi suggested going to a more gentle place to see if there were any other medicinal herbs.
Most of the top of the mountain is still very flat, as if it has been cut by the waist, but unfortunately only half of it has been cut off.
It's a pity that there are only groups of old, weak, sick and disabled mountain people left, if it weren't for the inconvenience of going down, Bai Yi thought that they should have gone down a long time ago.
As Brother Nongwu stopped and stopped along the way, he also found some ordinary medicinal materials, including the Great Blood Vine and the Earth Blood Incense. The large blood vine has the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying, dispelling wind and relieving pain, and invigorating blood
The medicinal effects of the earth blood incense, the root vine, and the fruit are different. The root and vine (old vine) have the functions of dispelling wind and dampness, regulating qi and relieving pain, and invigorating blood and dissipating stasis.
It is used for rheumatic musculoskeletal pain, lumbar muscle strain, sciatica, acute gastroenteritis, chronic gastritis, gastric and duodenal ulcer, dysmenorrhea, postpartum abdominal pain, bruises. Because it is a perennial medicinal herb, it is not rare and can be planted in a large area.
Ripe fruit of earth blood fragrance: tonify the kidneys and calm the heart, stop phlegm and dispel cough. It is used for kidney deficiency, low back pain, neurasthenia, bronchitis.
Bai Yi introduced the big brother of Nongwu one by one, and marked it out, so that people could pick some large amounts of earth blood incense and big blood vines first. As for the old chicken blood vine that has only been discovered since climbing to the top of the mountain, Bai Yi is considering whether he can transplant the branch.
"Big brother, what's the use of that over there?" Bai Yi pointed to a wasteland over there where there were obvious signs of human activity.
"It is used to grow sweet potatoes over there, although some people under the mountain send daily necessities from time to time, but the people on the cliff also try to grow some food for backup." Brother Nongwu said as a matter of course.
"Then let's go over and take a look, it seems that there are medicinal herbs on the wasteland a little farther away." Bai Yi is far away and is not sure, anyway, it is okay to be idle, so he naturally wants to go over and have a look.
"Little brother, follow closely, the way in here is not easy." Brother Nongwu said a word and began to walk inside with his white clothes.
A path that was stepped on with your feet, on both sides were thorns, the thorns were not high but very dense, and if you were not careful, you would be caught by the barbs on the thorns or cut your clothes.
The two of them walked in front of each other, trying to help Bai Yi block some of the thorny branches hanging over.
"Little brother, these thorn branches grow very quickly, so there is no way to clean them all, and leaving some thorns can stop the hare," explained Brother Nongwu.
"Big brother, there are hares on this cliff?" Bai Yi was stunned by Brother Nongwu's words.
"Of course there are hares, and where people can't go well, the hare just passes. We followed the rabbit trail and found that they climbed over the top of the hill and could climb to the back of the mountain. Brother Nong Wu said and pointed to Bai Yi to see a cliff protrusion.
"Huh?!" Bai Yi looked at the rock bulge that was less than the size of his palm, at least more than a meter long, sure that the hare dared to climb over it?
"Isn't it incredible, in fact, it is also the hares that reduce their own burden, some elderly rabbits will climb over there, and they will never come back, and everything will rest if they can't get by." Brother Nong Wu said affirmatively.
"Load off? It means that rabbits know that their resources for survival are limited, so some old rabbits don't have to come back if they climb over the past and fall off the cliff naturally. Bai Yi asked uncertainly.
"That's right." Brother Nongwu stood still after saying two simple words.
Bai Yi looked up and found that he had come to the wasteland, looking at the sweet potato vines spreading around, Bai Yi found that the medicinal herbs he saw in front of him were actually real.
I couldn't help but sigh, "Big brother, you have a lot of medicinal materials here, you see that the three plants over there are all red peony." Bai Yi thought while observing, how could there be a red peony on the top of such a mountain, and after thinking for a while, he couldn't help but shake his head, thinking about what he was doing so much, in vain.
"Is the little brother red peony also a medicinal herb? What does it do? Brother Nongwu didn't wait for Bai Yi's introduction, but urged Bai Yi to explain.
After all, these medicinal materials that Bai Yi said can be picked and sold for supplies, and they can also provide a little money for the clansmen.
"Red peony is non-toxic, takes the root and dries it, has the effect of clearing heat and cooling blood, invigorating blood and removing stasis. Red peony is a well-known wild and authentic Chinese medicinal material, with a long history of application, large dosage, wide range of uses and relatively rigid demand, and the long-standing red peony still needs to be imported. Bai Yi opened his mouth to explain the red peony.
Red peony is used for hot blood, warm poison spots, vomiting blood, eye redness, swelling and pain, liver depression and flank pain, amenorrhea, addiction and abdominal pain, bruises, carbuncle swelling and ulcers are very effective.
"Take 4 to 10 grams of decoction internally, or into pills. It is forbidden to use it with quinoa (quinoa is highly poisonous!) Anti-fine puncture, peony, ginseng, sand ginseng, salvia, succulent, sophora ginseng) blood deficiency should be taken with caution. "The white clothes explain the usage.
Looking at the three long-aged red peony plants in front of him, Bai Yi couldn't help but sigh, sure enough, where no one goes, there may not be no medicinal herbs, and there are still places where people are active.
Thinking of this, Bai Yi was even more determined to verify the necessity of verifying and confirming some rare medicinal materials.
"Big brother only has three plants here, we can take the ripe fruit of one plant and try to plant them, and their growth requirements are quite special. A shady place, preferably a cooler place to sprout, may be required. Bai Yi said as he stepped forward to pick the fruit of a red peony.
"Little brother, you bring the fruit, let's go down to the top of the cliff first, these medicinal materials can be packed and hung down at that time." Nong Wu watched as the sun began to set westward, urging Bai Yi to go down the cliff.
"Little brother, it's a little later, the mountain wind is stronger, and it's not suitable to go down the cliff." Brother Nongwu couldn't help but explain.
"Okay, listen to big brother." Baiyi is not a brain-dead in the TV series, what to do naturally with experienced people.
The two returned to the place where the old patriarch lived and explained their intentions to the old patriarch, and the old patriarch also urged Bai Yi to hurry down the cliff.
Bai Yi took his own things and did all the safety measures, and the first big brother went down the cliff in one step, this time Bai Yi went down the cliff much faster than going up the cliff, after all, it is much easier to go down the cliff under the condition of taking good measures.
At the moment when his feet touched the ground, Bai Yi still felt that his feet were a little soft. The big brother of Nongwu on his head had already begun to descend the cliff, and he was only tied to two ropes on his body, but the speed of going down the cliff was faster than that of Baiyi.
Brother Nongwu had already come down in less than six minutes after Bai Yi came down, and you must know that it took nearly 20 minutes for Bai Yi to go down the cliff for the same distance.
Under the support of Wang Dahai, the white clothes slowly returned to the house of the eldest brother of Nongwu with Aduo's sister-in-law, and only now did he know that he didn't know if he didn't look at the cliff below, and he kept looking at the broken rock under the cliff, and he didn't know the bottom of his heart.
By the time Baiyi's legs stopped shaking, Sister-in-law Aduo had already prepared dinner. The white clothes washed up, grabbed the dishes and chopsticks with a slightly trembling hand, and ate silently.
Thinking about himself and thinking about the mountain people who often go up and down, Bai Yi couldn't help but admire.
After eating, take a break, Brother Nongwu was worried about the seeds of the red peony, and Bai Yi said casually, "It's okay, the germination of the seeds of the red peony needs vernalization, and now they are all dormant and looking forward to the end of vernalization in the spring, it is the time to plant, you save this seed, big brother." After speaking, Bai Yi took out the seeds of the red peony and gave half of them to Brother Nongwu, and kept half for himself.
After a whole day, Bai Yi was more tired, and said that he would play with Brother Nongwu in the cottage for a day tomorrow, Bai Yi took the first step to wash and lay on the bed to rest with his eyes closed, and fell asleep unconsciously.
