Reborn in 1990, a life of fishing and gathering seafood.

Chapter 047: Three People Enter the Mountain, Tiger Root

Let's go!

"Let's take advantage of this time and go into the mountains first to see if we can find astragalus or ginseng..."

Fang Hao said to Fang Qiang.

I'm preparing to go into the mountains again.

Let's find some medicinal herbs!

Snake wine typically contains only a few ingredients, such as ginseng, angelica, astragalus, eucommia, and wolfberry.

Some medicinal herbs are not found in the mountains.

Medicinal herbs like angelica and ginseng grow in specific regions and at specific altitudes.

It's not available locally at all!

However, there are many medicinal herbs that can be used to make snake wine.

The villagers' favorite thing to do is to go into the mountains to dig up something called "ground ginseng," which looks somewhat like a white radish and somewhat like ginseng.

This stuff can enhance blood circulation and is beneficial to bones and joints, so it's considered a very good medicinal herb.

"Can I...go?"

Song Yaxin suddenly asked a probing question.

It's clear they're also interested in going into the mountains.

After all, she had never been to the mountains before. The terrain around their village was relatively flat, and even the hills and slopes were considered the highest mountains.

"You want to go in too?"

"The roads in the mountains are not easy to travel."

Fang Hao was stunned for a moment.

Going into the mountains is different from going to the beach.

The environment and road conditions in the mountains are quite complex.

Women generally avoid going into the mountains to avoid any potential dangers or accidents.

Surprisingly, Song Yaxin was interested.

"Um."

"Maybe we should just forget about it."

Song Yaxin nodded.

Then he shook his head and pondered.

She was just curious on a whim.

"If you want to go, then come along!"

"Anyway, it's just going in to dig for medicinal herbs..."

Fang Hao thought about it and agreed.

After all, his wife had finally gotten interested, and he couldn't spoil her fun. Besides, there weren't any wild beasts in the mountains!

Plus those two grown men!

It's not that he can't protect a woman.

Bring the real thing along later!

"I'll go get the equipment first."

After Fang Hao finished speaking, he went straight into the house.

You should know that his family has far more guns and weapons than Fang Qiang's family.

It is one of the best in the entire village.

He didn't become a gang leader for nothing!

soon.

Fang Hao came out with two weapons.

When going into the mountains, you definitely need something to protect your lower body, so you can use it to ensure your personal safety if you encounter wild boars or other animals.

Let's go!

Followed by.

The three of them set off immediately.

I'll take advantage of the time to go into the mountains to dig for medicinal herbs, and when I get back I'll continue to set up traps.

After all, setting up fish traps isn't a one-time task.

We need to keep doing this.

……

After half an hour.

In the mountains.

"Let me look for it."

"Let's see if we can find any ginseng."

Fang Hao said to Fang Qiang and Song Yaxin.

This type of ginseng is relatively common.

It is called "ground ginseng" because it looks somewhat similar to ginseng, but it is not real ginseng, since ginseng does not grow in southern regions.

The environment and climate conditions are not suitable.

but!

The world is vast and rich in species.

Nature has nurtured many amazing plants and animals, and even an encyclopedia cannot record everything.

Rural areas have unique insights and experience in using traditional Chinese medicine and folk remedies.

Many things in the world are made from Chinese herbal medicine.

For example, earthworms and feces.

"OK!"

Song Yaxin nodded as well.

Although she didn't know what ginseng was, Fang Hao had already described its appearance.

Just look for the features.

As for whether it can be found?

Then we'll see how it goes!

"Brother Hao."

"Actually, goji berries work too."

"After all, snake wine is primarily made with snake, with other ingredients serving as supplementary components. If you can't find ginseng, you can come to my house and get some goji berries..."

Fang Qiang spoke up.

There are actually many ways to make snake wine.

Some even simply soak live snakes in strong liquor separately.

Right now, Fang Hao wants to find ginseng.

Whether it can be found is still unknown.

"We'll talk about it if we can't find it..."

Fang Hao nodded slightly.

There are still quite a few medicinal herbs in the mountains these days.

Unlike later generations when people dug up everything and destroyed everything, finding wild medicinal herbs was as difficult as climbing to heaven.

"what?"

"Tiger root!"

Fang Hao's eyes suddenly lit up.

His enhanced vision, gained after his rebirth, allowed him to spot a medicinal herb hidden several hundred meters away.

Tiger root!

This is good stuff!

Is it really true that it came without any effort at all?

I didn't expect that I had just finished speaking.

A suitable target was found right away!

"Hey, Northwesterners! There's a tiger's root up ahead."

"Let's go take a look..."

After Fang Hao finished speaking, he walked straight ahead.

Finding this thing in the mountains made the trip worthwhile; in fact, it was a huge success.

Sea snake soaked in tiger root.

This is the real potent medicine.

A single tiger root is worth more than a thousand-year-old ginseng.

Wild black tiger root, also known as the root of heaven-nourishing herbs, is specifically used to replenish the body's innate essence. It can also dispel wind and invigorate the meridians, benefit the kidneys and strengthen essence, invigorate the stomach and treat bone and joint diseases, and has a particularly significant effect on lumbar spine diseases.

Therefore, in southern Guangxi, there is a saying: "If you don't encounter a tiger if you have bone disease, even a god can't strengthen your bones."

The ancient physician Li Shizhen recorded in the "Compendium of Materia Medica" that "one person can have three tiger roots in their lifetime, which can ensure that they will never suffer from bone diseases."

A famous doctor once brought it into the palace and presented it to the emperor. It eventually became a tribute item for the court's health and wellness purposes.

all in all.

This is a rare find.

"?"

Fang Qiang was taken aback at first.

And then they quickly caught up.

Fang Hao mentioned Tiger Root, and as a local, it was impossible for him not to know Tiger Root; it was quite famous.

It promotes blood circulation, clears the meridians, reduces swelling, and relieves pain.

Lower back strain, etc.

It is a wild medicinal herb with "magical powers" and is a rare and valuable item.

Wow!

"This tiger root is quite good..."

Fang Qiang caught up.

I saw that the giant vine was covered with thorns!

Just by looking at its size, you can tell it's a rare and exceptional specimen.

"Get it done first..."

Fang Hao nodded and said.

This tiger root was a pleasant surprise.

With this, there's no need to look for astragalus or ginseng anymore.

Its medicinal effects alone are enough!

It's important to know that many snake wines on the market may contain dozens of medicinal herbs, and the more complex the ingredients, the less effective the snake wine itself becomes.

Making snake wine is very simple for locals.

It basically consists of only one or two medicinal herbs.

Even if there are many, it's only three or four kinds!

It is rare to find a mixture of a dozen or even dozens of medicinal herbs.

This is similar to the cuisine in the Guinan region.

I prefer something simple and light!

"Brother Hao!"

"That tiger's penis is huge!"

Fang Qiang quickly exclaimed in surprise.

Unexpectedly, the tiger root hidden in the soil was even larger than I had imagined.

As thick as an arm!

The quality is absolutely top-notch.

You should know that most of the fish we dig up on a regular basis are only about the thickness of a finger.

This depends on the year of growth!

Those that are older have usually been dug up long ago.

The one in front of us is too well hidden.

It was only thanks to Fang Hao's exceptional perception that it was discovered; otherwise, it would have been missed entirely.

Looks like I'm having a really lucky day!
