Chapter 38 Zeqi and Dreams

Of course, there are still people who like prickly pears, such as Xie Ruyan.

"Then I'll eat it myself." Xie Ruyan tied the four corners of the handkerchief in his pocket into a bucket shape, then carefully picked out the prickly pear and put it in.

Xie Fugui came over and saw Xie Ruyan picking prickly pears, so he came over to help pick them together: "Pick a few less. You won't be able to eat one or two of them in a while because they are so sour."

"I can give it to Yunyun." Xie Ruyan said seriously: "Yunyun told me a few days ago that Ruan Jianqiang got several more villain books. I have to bribe them so that I can see good villain books."

After hearing this, Xie Jingyan felt that Xie Ruyan was really weird.

Exchanging unpalatable prickly pear fruits for reading novels is really a waste of money.

However, it seems that Xie Ruyan in his previous life was not so shrewd. Or rather, I did not realize that Xie Ruyan was so shrewd.

"Who do you look like with this weird look?" Luo Jinlian frowned slightly after hearing this: "There is also a kid named Qiang Qiang who is older than you. You have to call him brother. Don't become Ruan Qiang every day. If people find out, they will say you are rude."

"My name is Ruan Jianqiang. Mom, you think I'm rude for calling me Ruan Jianqiang every day. They are real brothers and sisters, and Ruan Jianqiang doesn't object." Xie Ruyan retorted.

Ruan Yunyun is the same age as Xie Ruyan, but her birthday is a little happier than Xie Ruyan's. Xie Ruyan was born in July, while Ruan Yunyun was born in August.

Xie Jingyan didn't come over to pick prickly pear fruits, but looked around boredly.

"Have you discovered the wild plant Zeqi? Will the host open the "Illustrated Book and Introduction to Five Hundred Kinds of Primary Plants" to learn about wild plants and their medicinal value?" Little A's voice suddenly came over.

Xie Jingyan just remembered that he had received the book "Illustrated Guide and Introduction to Five Hundred Kinds of Elementary Plants" in his novice gift package, but he didn't read it for various reasons.

It wasn't because Little A reminded me that I almost forgot this book.

"It's too late for me to look now. We're outside now." Xie Jingyan wanted to learn, but she really didn't have time to look at it at the moment.

"Because it is a gift package, and it is a reward for newcomers, which is one of the talents bestowed by talents, so the initiation method will be used to infuse it directly into the host, so that the host knows and understands all the contents in the book.

As long as the host chooses to open it, the introduction and illustrations of the five hundred primary plants in the book will directly enter your mind, allowing you to directly obtain relevant knowledge. As long as you compare it with the real thing every day and become familiar with it," Xiao A answered.

There is such a good thing. Since it is such a good thing, only a fool would refuse to open it: "Then open it."

After Xie Jingyan finished speaking, he felt that his mind went blank for a moment, and then countless knowledge entered his mind.

Looking at some withered and yellow plants in front of me again, I already knew what kind of plants they were.

Zeqi is an annual herb. When mature, the plant can reach ten to thirty centimeters. The leaves are alternate, obovate or spoon-shaped, and the edges have fine serrations in the middle and upper parts...

When you see Zeqi, relevant information about Zeqi appears, including its shape, leaf condition, flower appearance and fruit introduction.

Then there is the use value: bitter in taste, poisonous, diuretic and swelling, resolving phlegm and cough, detoxifying and dispersing stagnation. It is mainly used to treat edema, cough and asthma, scrofula, ringworm, etc.

The next thing to note is that the whole plant is poisonous and is not recommended for consumption, let alone in large amounts or for a long time.

Of course, these are only things that Xie Jing Tobacco knows about, and we need to take a closer look at the details.

But from this moment on, Xie Jingyan had a certain understanding of this plant.

In fact, the leaves of the Zeqi plant are somewhat similar to those of Purslane, and it is easy to confuse them if they are not the same.

However, purslane is a wild vegetable and is edible, while purslane is inedible.

It’s not that it can’t be eaten, it’s that it can’t be eaten in large quantities as it can easily cause poisoning.

Xie Jingyan looked at Zeqi in a daze, thinking about which plants were similar. He wondered if people in the countryside could tell the difference. After all, eating wild vegetables is common in the countryside, and purslane is one of the most popular wild vegetables.

"What are you thinking about?" Seeing Xie Jingyan in a daze, Luo Jinlian came over to take a look, and then said with a smile: "There is purslane here? Although it is withered and yellow, you can still see it."

"Mom, this is lacquer, not purslane." Xie Jingyan didn't expect that even if she just thought about it, her mother would admit her mistake first.

"This is Zeqi? What Zeqi? Isn't this purslane? We also call it wild peanut vine. When we didn't eat it before, we dug it up and ate it." Luo Jinlian said directly.

"Mom, you should eat Zeqi. Don't eat too much Zeqi. If you eat too much, you will be poisoned." Xie Jingyan said: "But Zeqi is a kind of medicinal material. If it appears in water, it can be used for coughs and asthma, but it cannot be used."

If you eat more, you will still be poisoned."

"How do you know?" Luo Jinlian asked a little curiously after hearing Xie Jingyan's eloquent behavior.

"Because I've read a lot of books." Xie Jingyan pointed to her head: "Grandma's house also has a lot of books. I also read the Compendium of Materia Medica, so I naturally know these."

"It's terrible, with this attitude, my second girl will become a doctor." Luo Jinlian teased.

Xie Jingyan said directly: "When I grow up, I just want to be a doctor."

Xie Jingyan said that Luo Jinlian and others could be mentally prepared. After all, his plan for this life is to become a doctor.

"This is good." Xie Fugui also heard the conversation between their mother and daughter: "It would be a good thing if these two girls become doctors."

For everyone, it is a very good thing for their children to be teachers or doctors, because these are iron rice bowls.

So when Xie Jingyan said she wanted to be a doctor, neither Luo Jinlian nor Xie Fugui would object. Not only would they not object, they would also support it.

"There are so many types of doctors, what kind of doctor do you want to be?" Xie Fugui asked curiously.

"I want to be a drug research doctor, specializing in researching various medicines for everyone, so that they can get rid of their illnesses after taking my medicine." Xie Jingyan thought about it seriously, and then looked at Zeqi without knowing why, and an idea flashed across his face.

Just answer.

The reason why Xie Jingyan has such a clear goal is because he opened the "Illustrated Book and Introduction of Five Hundred Kinds of Elementary Plants".

Xie Jingyan knew that there were many clinical doctors, but a variety of drugs were needed to truly relieve patients' pain.

But in this area, for now, it is still very weak. Even though many researchers are studying and working hard, the research cannot keep up with the development of Western medicine.

Of course, Western medicine is not bad, but the side effects of Western medicine are there.

After seeing Zeqi's introduction, Xie Jingyan discovered that a small plant can actually have such a great effect.
