Huang Huifeng signaled everyone to be quiet, picked up some medicinal materials and put it under Jiang Qiu's nose.
"Nine-jointed calamus can open up the mind and resolve phlegm, wake up the spleen and calm the nerves. It is a medicine for opening up the mind."
Huang Huifeng was at a loss for a moment. He looked at the medicinal material in his hand and was suddenly surprised.
bingo!
The onlookers' eyes widened even more.
Ah, this... is actually so fast?
Qian Linghui can tell the difference the moment she smells the medicinal materials. It is the result of talent, hard work and time! It cannot be copied. No one else in their thirties can reach this situation.
And what happened to Jiang Qiu?
At the age of not even twenty-five, he can actually blurt out the medicinal ingredients as soon as he smells them like Qian Linghui?
So accurate!
After a moment of surprise, everyone shook their heads.
Impossible! Absolutely impossible!
He must be fooled!
It’s okay if Qian Linghui is so defiant, but what about Jiang Qiu who is even more defiant?
Then what dignity do they have for those who study Chinese medicine?
Everyone agreed that Jiang Qiu was fooled just now!
But people who knew a little bit showed solemn expressions.
Take Qian Linghui, for example, her expression has turned serious.
The smell of Acorus calamus is very weak, almost an inaudible sour smell. There are many medicinal materials that have this smell, and the difference is very subtle.
If it weren't for a master who has been studying pharmacology for decades, I'm afraid he would never be able to make such a decisive distinction!
This Jiang Qiu...has something!
Sure enough, the next medicinal ingredient had just been put in front of Jiang Qiu's nose, and the moment the smell penetrated into his nasal cavity, Jiang Qiu spoke without hesitation.
"Banfenghe is used to treat wind-cold dampness, rheumatism and weakness, lumbar muscle strain, paralysis of hands and feet, postpartum rheumatic paralysis, difficulty in joint flexion and extension, and swelling and pain due to injuries from falls."
Everyone was startled again!
Right again!
This, this, this... doesn't make sense!
How could it be right again?
Isn't Jiang Qiu blind?
But it's not blind. Wouldn't that be more shocking?
How old is he? How could he have such terrifying pharmacological background? Could it be that he has been soaked in medicinal herbs since he was born?
Simply unbelievable!
The next moment, Jiang Qiu's voice came again.
"White Crane Ganoderma can clear the lungs and relieve cough, relieve dampness and relieve itching. It is used to treat early stage tuberculosis. It can be used externally to treat tinea corporis and eczema."
Another instant answer!
Everyone’s mouths twitched crazily!
Being right once can be said to be a fool, and being right twice can be said to be extremely lucky, but what about three times?
While everyone was still in shock, Huang Huifeng held up the fourth medicinal ingredient, and Jiang Qiu spoke instantly.
"Grass cardamom can remove dampness and strengthen the spleen, warm the stomach and relieve vomiting. It is used to treat internal cold-damp obstruction, abdominal distension and cold pain, belching and vomiting, and inability to eat."
There was silence all around.
Answered in seconds, right again...
This can never be due to luck! It is even less likely to be deceived!
This Jiang Qiu must have real ability! And his real ability is not weaker than Qian Linghui!
Everyone's eyes gradually became a little fanatical.
This Jiang Qiu is simply outrageous!
Yesterday, he was better than Hu Weicai in acupuncture. With such a unique skill, he is not much different from Qian Linghui in pharmacology today!
Could it be that Jiang Qiu is responsible for two unique arts by himself?
Under the horrified eyes of everyone, Jiang Qiu was almost the same as Qian Linghui, both of them could distinguish the types and effects of medicinal materials in an instant.
There is no mistake at all, it is as perfect as if it came out of a textbook.
The first eighteen herbs did not cause any hindrance to Jiang Qiu at all, but the last two herbs, like red Poria and Poria, were specially selected by the judges.
In front of Jiang Qiu were two small lumps of medicinal herbs. One was brown on the outside and white on the inside, while the other was completely black.
The black one is called Zhi Shou Wu, and the white one is called Sheng Shou Wu.
As you can tell from their names, they have the same origin.
Even closer than the relationship between red Poria cocos and Poria cocos!
There is a plant called Polygonum multiflorum. After drying it, you will get the Polygonum multiflorum which is brown on the outside and white on the inside.
Polygonum multiflorum is made by people after artificial processing of Polygonum multiflorum. It is completely black, so it is called Polygonum multiflorum.
The two are actually the same thing, but the production methods are different, so there is a difference.
If you can see it, there is nothing to say. Anyone who studies Chinese medicine can tell it because there is a big difference in color between the two.
But the key is... you can only smell it!
There is almost no difference between the two!
How to tell this?
For a moment, everyone's hearts became tense.
Qian Linghui was lucky just now, but what about Jiang Qiu now? Could it be that he was unlucky and got the two confused?
No one even thought that Jiang Qiu could distinguish the two medicinal materials.
Huang Huifeng raised the Polygonum multiflorum, Jiang Qiu smelled it, and said without thinking.
"Shou Shouwu has the functions of detoxifying, eliminating carbuncle, moisturizing the intestines and laxative. It is often used to treat scrofula and carbuncle, rubella and itching, intestinal dryness and constipation."
As soon as he finished speaking, the bystanders were stunned.
So fast again? No need to think about it?
In front of everyone's attention, Huang Huifeng raised the black Polygonum multiflorum.
However, just when everyone thought that Jiang Qiuhui was in the same dilemma as Qian Linghui, unable to distinguish between the two and could only rely on deception.
Jiang Qiu, however, surprised everyone and spoke directly without hesitation.
"Preparing Shouwu has the effects of nourishing the liver and kidneys, replenishing essence and blood, blackening hair and beard, and strengthening muscles and bones. It is used for blood deficiency and chlorosis, dizziness and tinnitus, early graying of beard and hair, soreness of waist and knees, numbness of limbs, metrorrhagia, vaginal discharge, and chronic malaria and physical weakness.
.”
Jiang Qiu's words echoed around, making everyone stunned in an instant.
Huang Huifeng was stunned and said blankly.
"Are you...so sure?"
Jiang Qiu shrugged and said matter-of-factly.
"Yeah, what's wrong?"
Hearing this, Qian Linghui on the side almost spit out a mouthful of old blood!
What's wrong? These two medicinal materials are so similar and have almost no difference in smell. How did you smell it? How could you not be suspicious at all?
You know, when she just faced the problem of Red Fuling and Poria, she put everything in luck.
And Jiang Qiu actually concluded so!
Qian Linghui said without any hesitation and immediately said in disbelief.
"How can you be so sure?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes immediately focused on Jiang Qiu.
They also want to know why.
Jiang Qiu slowly untied the black cloth from his eyes, wrapped the Radix Polygonum multiflorum and Polygonum multiflorum in black cloth, held it up in front of Qian Linghui, and spoke quietly.
"Close your eyes and smell it once."
Qian Linghui's eyes were confused, but she still closed her eyes as Jiang Qiu said. After smelling the two medicinal materials, Qian Linghui frowned and said.
"There is no difference."
Jiang Qiu smiled slightly and said calmly.
"Different things naturally have differences. Imagine that you are making a piece of raw Shouwu into prepared Shouwu, and their smell is surrounding you."
"Think about it again, the Radix Polygoni Multiflori originates from nature, and the Radix Polygoni Multiflori is mixed with human skills. Is it that the Radix Polygoni Multiflori is more popular than the Radix Polygoni Multiflori? Is it a smell that does not belong to nature?"
After saying that, Jiang Qiu gave Qian Linghui more than ten seconds to think, then picked up one of the medicinal materials and said.
"Now smell it again."
Qian Linghui sniffed subconsciously. The strange thing is that the smell that was not recognizable just now is actually what Jiang Qiu said! There is an extra strange smell!
Qian Linghui closed her eyes and almost did not hesitate.
