Chapter 238: Gotta Find a Reason
It's been a long time since I saw the medicine, and it was just a hurry, so I had to check it first.
After walking for a quarter of an hour, Tang Mian felt a little tired.
"Whew, it's so light to go out in winter." Tang Mian stood in the mountains and forests and sighed.
It's cold, and I'm almost wrapped myself in a ball when I'm dressed in clothes, and I'm much more tired to walk around than in summer.
This is still the result of thinking that it will be warm when she walks out, and deliberately wears one less piece of clothing, otherwise she will only be more tired.
He stood there for a while, and only after he had recovered some strength did he raise his feet and continue on his way.
After walking for almost two quarters of an hour, I finally came to the place I remembered.
Looking at a piece of plant fluttering in the wind not far away, the corners of Tang Mian's lips were raised high, and he walked over quickly and squatted to identify it.
Yellow-brown, round-shaped with white hairs at the roots, as described in the book, and looks the same as the picture in the book, this should be a pulsatilla.
Fortunately, this herb is hardy, and it will not freeze to death in winter.
However, the book says that pulsatilla is usually harvested in spring and autumn, and it is not known whether there is one.
Tang Mian thought as he took out a small hoe from the back basket and slowly dug it up.
In the book, it is said that the pulsatilla uses the roots as medicine to cure diseases, but she does not know which part to use as an insecticide, so she can only pick all the leaves and roots.
There are dozens of pulsatilla trees here, and it took three quarters of an hour for Tang Mian to harvest them all.
After packing up the harvested pulsatillas, I found a large rock and sat down to rest.
After resting enough, I got up and set off again, looking for the second medicine, neem seed.
Neem is the fruit of the neem tree, harvested in autumn and winter, and now is the right time.
To find neem seeds, you must first find neem trees. According to the book, the neem tree is three to six feet tall, and its bark is brown, with longitudinal cracks and tiny pores.
The neem seed, on the other hand, is oval about an inch long, and may be yellow or millet brown.
She has traveled a lot in the mountains since she was collecting medicine, but she has never seen this kind of tree or fruit.
It seems that in order to find neem, she has to walk where she has never set foot before.
Although it was not easy, she still wanted to try her best.
However, the end result was not satisfactory. Seeing that the sun was about to set, Tang Mian didn't even find the shadow of the neem tree.
I had no choice but to turn around and go out of the mountain.
"Mianniang." Before he reached the bottom of the mountain, he heard a voice of slight joy.
Tang Mian raised his eyes and saw Lu Zheng's figure through the gap in the bamboo forest. My heart warmed, and I walked out of the mountain quickly.
"Dad, why are you here?"
Lu Zheng saw Tang Mian come out, and his heart fell after a whole day, "It's too dark, I'm not at ease, come and have a look." β
Just now, I vaguely saw a figure behind the bamboo forest, and tentatively called out Tang Mian's name, it was really her.
"Carry the basket to me, you're tired all day." Lu Zheng stretched out his hand towards Tang Mian and said.
Tang Mian didn't refuse, took off the basket and handed it to Lu Zheng, "Then it's troublesome Dad." β
"It's fine. Let's go, your mother is in a hurry. Lu Zheng took the basket and put it on his back, and took the lead in turning around and walking in front.
Tang Mian replied lightly and followed Lu Zheng towards the village.
When the two arrived home, Zhuang Zhuang had already returned.
Originally, when he arrived home, he knew that Tang Mian had not come back, and Zhuang Zhuang was unhappy. When he saw Tang Mian at this time, he instantly raised his smile and ran over.
"Mother."
When Tang Mian saw him running over, he also opened his hands to catch him, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, my mother is back, okay." β
She knew that the little one didn't see her for the first time when he came home, and she was worried.
"Mianniang, you're finally back." Li Shi also walked out of the stove room when he heard the voice, and was greatly relieved to see Tang Mian, "Before the weather warms up, I think you should not enter the mountain again." In the snowy winter, the mountain road is not easy to walk, and it is not so safe. β
"Okay." Tang Mian nodded obediently, "Mother, I know, just this once." β
Neem seeds, only wait for the spring to be empty and then go to the mountains to look for it, and send the pulsatilla to Dr. Wu tomorrow.
Nowadays, pulsatilla has not been recorded by their pharmacopoeia here, and if you want to give it to Dr. Wu for study, you have to think of a reason.
