120. Underwater world
After reading the book "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea", you will be aroused by the various magnificent underwater wonders and mysterious marine creatures described in it.
However, Tang Qinqin, who felt that she had "deep-sea phobia", did not know that one day she needed to face and overcome this psychological difficulty in person for the sake of the game task.
When she received a game question with the name "Underwater World", she thought it was a visit to the aquarium.
Well, if the sea is an "aquarium" in another sense, and you can swim in it with all kinds of marine life.
[Ding!] Welcome to the game "Underwater World"! Do you like the mysterious underwater world? How much do you know about it? This round of the game is a test level, are you a legendary deep sea expert, or a deep sea dreader? Come and verify it! ]
After the game prompt ends, the scene in front of you is quickly replaced.
Tang Qinqin looked at the dim environment in front of him and blinked, a little strange for a while.
But the feeling didn't last long, and she soon found herself in the middle of nowhere. Not on the surface of the sea, but in the depths of the ocean, where you can barely see the light.
The boundless sea water enveloped his whole body, and Tang Qinqin's heart was gradually filled with fear of the unknown.
She felt her own pounding heartbeat in her chest, her nerves tensed, and she didn't dare to look around her.
Tang Qinqin's mind began to unconsciously recall all kinds of deep-sea monsters he had seen in popular science documentaries, octopuses that were huge enough to fight whales, brutal and bloodthirsty sharks, and beautiful but implicitly poisonous giant jellyfish......
For a moment, the fear in her heart surrounded her, and it seemed that the dark waters around her hid countless pairs of tigerish eyes, just waiting for the right moment to rush over and swallow her into her belly.
No, why am I in the sea?
Tang Qinqin's mind, which was too frightened and drowsy, suddenly had a trace of doubt.
As if unwilling to be blindly frightened, she subconsciously grabbed this trace of doubt, and asked herself over and over again, why am I in the sea?
Like, as if it's just a game!
Detection off? Deep......
By the way, you're in the game!
Tang Qinqin opened his eyes suddenly. The panic was dispelled, and she struggled to calm her heartbeat.
So, the game party knows what her fear is, which is honing her?
I don't know if it's because things are going to be the opposite, because I'm too scared and numb, or if I inadvertently overcame the fear in my heart, Tang Qinqin actually changed his restraint just now and began to swim freely.
Taking advantage of the convenient opportunity brought by the game to be able to breathe freely in the water without fear of deep sea pressure, it is a pity not to look around at this mysterious and beautiful ocean scenery.
The last trace of fear in Tang Qinqin's heart also quietly disappeared.
[Congratulations to player Tang Yuanwai for reaching the Junior Deep Sea Talent goal!] ]
……
The results of the acupuncture assessment have come down.
Tang Qinqin passed the basic level assessment and obtained the acupuncture level qualification certificate.
This certificate means that from today onwards, under the leadership of the master or other senior brothers and sisters who have medical qualifications, she can start to treat patients.
This is undoubtedly a big step, no matter how much theory is learned, if it is not applied to practice, it is just a piece of paper, and she can sit in the hall together, which means that the "internship" stage has begun.
"Little junior sister, congratulations." There are constantly senior brothers and sisters who congratulate Tang Qinqin when they see him, but they all begin to have a sense of crisis in their hearts.
Tang Qinqin didn't have the idea of pride and smugness in his heart. At the beginning of the internship in the medical center, there are more things to learn, in addition to the pulse of learning, but also to learn to judge the symptoms, prescribe medicines, and be familiar with the medicinal properties of various Chinese medicines.
Just thinking about it, she only felt that she was learning too slowly, too little.
Traditional Chinese medicine not only contains all kinds of prepared herbs, but also many other pharmacological minerals, insects, etc., and even, some rare and small animal "excrement".
For example, "Five Spirit Fat", it sounds like a very elegant name, doesn't it? It is actually the dried feces of flying squirrels, orange-footed flying squirrels, and flying squirrels, among others.
It is a traditional Chinese medicine used for bleeding and analgesics.
There is also the poop of a hare, which is called Mochizuki sand; bat poop, luminous sand; Sparrow's poop, white lilac......
The dried product of sperm whale intestine endocrine, the famous ambergris, also known as dragon belly incense, is a precious substance for making spices.
Nature is magical.
……
Time passed day by day, and spring began.
The warm mulch covering the back hill and the small courtyard has been lifted, revealing various herbs that have slept well for the winter.
"Purslane, toad, plantain......" Tang Qinqin held two lists in his hand, one of which listed the names of some herbs that are common in rural fields but rare in cities.
In the other one, the medicinal materials on it are more precious, such as Dendrobium officinalis, Cordyceps sinensis, wild gastrodia and bezoar, etc.
"These are the herbs that are in demand at the moment, and if there is a need to use me, say it." Old wine said.
The medicinal herbs on the second piece of paper are a scarce resource in the pharmacy of the medical hall, but in fact, there is much more to it than is on the list.
Now, with the deterioration of the climate and environment, the loss of soil nutrients, and excessive harvesting, it has become more and more difficult to find all kinds of precious medicinal materials in the wild in nature.
This is also an important reason why Chinese medicine is difficult today.
"Okay, I got it." Tang Qinqin handed over the herbs he had harvested before to Lao Jiu: "Look at it, these are the first two stubbles. Mainly dandelions, plantain and purple ground. ”
Her cultivation talent has accumulated with the cultivation of these batches of herbs, and now she can now guarantee the survival rate of the more precious herbs.
"It's these dendrobium and the like, I don't have seeds, where can I buy them?"
……
Precious herbs are of course hard to come by.
Tang Qinqin and Lao Jiu, under the leadership of their respective brothers and sisters, are going to the inaccessible mountains to find their targets.
It is already rare to see such a lush and ecologically sound forest, and the state department has set up a special protection base to prevent indiscriminate logging, theft of trees, wild animals and plants.
They were able to come in, and they also submitted all kinds of necessary materials and procedures along the way, and finally passed the review layer by layer, and were allowed to enter, and when they finally came out, they had to go through a scanning and inventory before they could be released.
Ten years of trees, 100 years of forests.
The birth of a forest takes a long time for nature to evolve, and its destruction, with the current capabilities of humans, may take less than a year.
Tang Qinqin's mood is very happy, she releases her natural psychic ability from time to time to communicate with the creatures around her, and obviously feels that the animals and plants here are more vibrant and solid.
Coming to such an environment to find the purpose of their trip seems to be very promising.
There are basically no roads in the forest because of the inaccessible tracks, and there are only two regular routes that rangers patrol on a daily basis, which are slender and long and winding through the forest.
Several people carefully watched their feet and tried not to step on the greenery around the path.
All things have a spirit, and we should respect each other.
