Hearing this, He Simiao nodded and said softly: "There is a stream over there. Let's go over and rest by the stream for a while!"
Yang Xiaobao had no objection to this, so he, He Simiao and others went to the stream to rest.
After resting for a while, He Simiao suddenly said in shock: "Brother Yang, what are you looking at?"
As he spoke, He Simiao pointed toward the grass not far away.
"Um?"
Yang Xiaobao was surprised, and then followed He Simiao's line of sight and looked out.
Looking at it, I saw many spike-like plants growing under the wet grass not far away.
"Mr. He, as a medical expert at the provincial hospital, you don't even know Prunella vulgaris, right?"
After looking at it, Yang Xiaobao asked a question like this, and then looked at He Simiao thoughtfully.
What surprised him was that He Simiao was a medical expert from a large hospital in the provincial capital, and it was impossible that he could not recognize the traditional Chinese medicine Prunella vulgaris.
Hearing Yang Xiaobao's question, He Simiao smiled awkwardly.
It's not that he doesn't know Prunella vulgaris, it's just to test Yang Xiaobao.
Unexpectedly, Yang Xiaobao recognized Prunella vulgaris at a glance and even questioned him, which somewhat caught He Simiao off guard.
Seeing that He Simiao didn't respond for a long time, Yang Xiaobao smiled calmly and said: "Mr. He, this Prunella vulgaris can clear the liver and purge fire, improve eyesight and clear fire, dissolve knots and reduce swelling. We have come into the mountains, and we have met
The first Chinese herbal medicine, why don’t we let people pick it?”
Hearing this, He Simiao's heart was shaken, and the shock in his eyes flashed away.
Although Prunella Vulgaris is just a very common Chinese herbal medicine, Yang Xiaobao was able to describe it accurately like countless treasures. This undoubtedly shows that Yang Xiaobao is not as incompetent in medical skills as Zhou Jianguo and his wife said.
"Okay! You guys, go pick the prunella vulgaris under the wet grass!"
He Simiao nodded, and then ordered the few people who came with him to pick the prunella vulgaris.
Those few people didn't hesitate and hurried forward to pick them.
Taking advantage of this gap, He Simiao started talking to Yang Xiaobao again: "Yang Xiaobao, I can't tell that you are so familiar with Chinese herbal medicine."
"Um?"
Suddenly hearing He Simiao's question, Yang Xiaobao was stunned for a moment. After thinking about it, he responded with a smile: "Mr. He, when I was young, I often came to this back mountain. There are many people here.
I know all about Chinese herbal medicine!”
"Is that so?"
He Simiao was surprised and looked at Yang Xiaobao doubtfully.
"Otherwise, what do you think, Mr. He?"
Yang Xiaobao asked back.
He Simiao was stunned and opened his mouth, but for a moment he didn't know what to say.
Afterwards, the two of them waited quietly without saying anything more.
Not long after, the few people accompanying them had finished picking the prunella vulgaris.
Then, Yang Xiaobao and his party continued their journey.
After walking for a while, the group came to a small grassland.
Looking closely, I saw clusters of flowers and plants growing on the grass.
These flowers and plants grow densely in clusters, and the flowers are gorgeous and lavender in color.
Seeing this, He Simiao looked at Yang Xiaobao who was beside him thoughtfully, and said with a smile: "These flowers are so beautiful!"
"oh?"
Yang Xiaobao was shocked when he suddenly heard He Simiao's words. Thinking of the look in He Simiao's eyes when he looked at him, Yang Xiaobao felt even more strange.
"He Lao, these flowers and plants are called Scutellaria barbata. The whole plant is used as medicine. It has the functions of clearing heat and detoxifying, activating blood circulation and removing blood stasis, reducing swelling and relieving pain, and anti-cancer."
"Ha ha!"
What surprised Yang Xiaobao was that He Simiao suddenly laughed after hearing what he said.
"You...why are you laughing?"
Yang Xiaobao asked in surprise, with a look of confusion on his face.
"nothing."
He Simiaoyan responded and then looked at the few people who came with him: "Why are you still standing there? Why don't you hurry up and pick those barbata?"
After what He Simiao said, those people didn't hesitate and went to pick the barbata.
Next, Yang Xiaobao continued to lead He Simiao and others forward.
What puzzled Yang Xiaobao was that every time he encountered Chinese herbal medicine, He Simiao would intentionally or unintentionally lure him to explain it.
"What does this old man mean?"
"He...he seems to be testing me!"
At that moment, a thought suddenly flashed through Yang Xiaobao's mind.
As soon as he thought about this, he was extremely certain in his heart that He Simiao was testing him here.
If not, how could He Simiao, a medical expert from a major hospital in a provincial capital, not be able to recognize those Chinese herbal medicines?
The only thing Yang Xiaobao couldn't figure out was why He Simiao was testing him like this?
After thinking about it over and over again, he couldn't figure out the reason. On the contrary, it made his thoughts confused.
"Brother Yang, what are you thinking about?"
Just when Yang Xiaobao was lost in thought, He Simiao suddenly looked towards him.
Hearing this, Yang Xiaobao calmed down, smiled slightly and said: "No...it's nothing! By the way, Mr. He, it's getting late now. Let them take you down the mountain back to the village quickly! It will take several days before you get back.
It’s an hour’s journey!”
"Um?"
He Simiao was surprised when he suddenly heard Yang Xiaobao's words, and asked in confusion: "What? Brother Yang, aren't you going back with us?"
Yang Xiaobao smiled calmly and explained: "My sister has rheumatism. I have to pick some chicken grass and use it as medicine to treat her rheumatism when I get back."
After Yang Xiaobao's explanation, He Simiao relaxed his frown and said with a smile: "How about... we can accompany you."
Yang Xiaobao shook his head and responded: "No need, I know where there is chicken vine, but the distance is still a long way! Mr. He, you'd better go down the mountain quickly, the sun is going to set!"
When he said this, Yang Xiaobao took advantage of the situation and looked at the molten gold sunset.
He Simiao was stunned for a moment, as if he was thinking about everything.
While thinking about it, he nodded and said softly: "In this case, let's go down the mountain first. Brother Yang, please be careful."
"Don't worry, Mr. He. I'm very familiar with this back mountain. There won't be any problems!"
After saying this, Yang Xiaobao stood up and left without waiting for He Simiao to respond.
Seeing Yang Xiaobao's retreating figure, He Simiao nodded with satisfaction, his eyes filled with admiration.
Along the way, he has tested Yang Xiaobao, and Yang Xiaobao's knowledge base on medicinal materials is not much inferior to that of some old Chinese doctors.
Even some of the more exotic Chinese herbal medicines he couldn't name here, but Yang Xiaobao had all the treasures in his family, and he was very familiar with them, and his effects were clearly explained.
"Such a talent would be buried deep in this mountain!"
While staring, He Simiao suddenly sighed like this.
