Chapter 208 Tianqi Temple Medicine Field
At noon time, Zhao Zhen, Jiao Ting and the escorting Zhuang Ding all had vegetarian noodles made in the Liantai Temple. After the meal, Zhao Zhen stopped for a while, drank a cup of tea, and then left. During this trip to Snow Mountain Peak, Zhao Zhen soaked in hot springs and inspected Xinghua Village and Liantai Temple. Lu Zhishen also settled in Snow Mountain Dazhai, leaving only Tianqi Temple. After the inspection, Zhao Zhen could return to Baishi Valley. After all, the weather at the end of October was already chilly both morning and night.
Zhao Zhen and others passed through Ma Miao Village and went all the way to Tianqi Temple.
When Zhao Zhen arrived, Bai Duo and others were resting in the temple. Seeing that everyone was covered in dust and looked tired, it seemed that they had worked hard these past two days.
After everyone saw the ceremony, Zhao Zhen said to Bai Duo: "My dear, why do you look like this?"
Bai Duo said excitedly: "Xian son-in-law, although the Qimiao medicinal field has been abandoned for some reason for some reason, there are actually many medicinal materials left behind. In addition to the new ones, there are also many old ones. I borrowed them from Ma Miao Village in the past two days. With some hoes and shovels, together with the villagers in the house, we first cleared the weeds in the fields. I have already seen the geographical varieties of wolfberry, atractylodes, astragalus, skullcap, polygonatum, salvia, honeysuckle, platycodon, and northern adenophora. , Farewell to the fairy trail, I also found a lot of ginseng in the pine forest on the mountain."
Zhao Zhen said: "My dear, why don't you ask the people from the village of Ma Temple down the mountain to help?"
Baiduo said. : "Xian son-in-law, Li Zheng Zhao Ji brought people to help yesterday. Otherwise, I and a few other people would not be able to clean up this medicinal field. These people all went back to eat, and they all came up in a while. Today we can Clean up the medicinal field. If my wise son-in-law had told me earlier, we could pick more wolfberry and honeysuckle in season."
Zhao Zhen said: "We will pay more attention to this place in the future."
Bai Duo said: "Of course, most of these medicinal materials are nourishing. Presumably they were also used by Taoists in Tianqi Temple at the time. A good son-in-law practices martial arts and can be used for many purposes. For example, take wolfberry as an example. The leaves of wolfberry are called Tianjingcao; the flowers are collected in summer and are called Changshengcao; the seeds are collected in autumn and are called wolfberry seeds; the roots are collected in winter and are called wolfberry bark. The young wolfberry leaves are also called wolfberry heads and can be eaten or made into wolfberry tea. It is best for replenishing qi and strengthening essence, and it is easy to eat. It can be cooked as porridge in winter and as tea in summer. ”
"Another example is Huangjing, the essence of Zhicao. It is the leftover grain of an immortal. Its root is like young ginger, and it is commonly known as wild ginger. After nine steaming and nine exposures, it can be used as a food substitute, also known as rice. It is best for nourishing the middle Qi, calming the five internal organs, and replenishing the five labors. For seven injuries, it can help the muscles and bones. Taking it for a long time can lighten the body and prolong life without hunger. "
" Divide wolfberry (preferably picked in winter) and Polygonatum into fine powder, mix the two flavors, pound into pieces, and knead. The cake is dried and pounded into powder, and the honey is made into pills, which are as big as sycamore seeds. They are called [Wolfberry Pills]. Take fifty pills each time and drink them with warm water to replenish the essence."
"Polygonati, Four kilograms each of Atractylodes, five kilograms each of wolfberry root and cypress leaves, three kilograms of asparagus juice, ten kilograms of glutinous rice, and one kilogram of glutinous rice. If brewed regularly, it can strengthen muscles and bones, replenish the essence, and reduce white hair."
< br>Cheng Wan'er also said: "Ms. sir, my family has also learned to use Polygonatum as the main ingredient, as well as Atractylodes, Asparagus, pine leaves, and wolfberry. Place it in a porcelain jar, cover it tightly with white wine, put it in a water bath and simmer until the wine is ready. Bring to a boil, stir with bamboo stalks, add honey, continue to simmer until the hops are concentrated quickly, seal with wax paper, and leave for three to five months to make [Yan Nian Wine]. "
Baiduo said: "There are also honeysuckle, Bie Xianzong, Platycodon grandiflorum, Adenophora miltiorrhiza, Salvia miltiorrhiza, etc. to treat carbuncle, furuncle and epidemic dysentery."
Zhao Zhen asked: "There are so many medicinal materials, and the age is not short. Can any of them be advanced?"
Bai Duo said: "In the past two days, we have almost picked honeysuckle and wolfberry. There is a different one, with black wolfberries. I have never added it and asked the farmer who picked it to leave it untouched. I don’t know if it has entered the market. Please take a look.”
Speaking, he led Zhao Zhen to the medicine field. Near the middle of the wolfberry medicine field, Zhao Zhen saw this black wolfberry tree and checked the world log
Black wolfberry (Lycium barbarum) A ray of spiritual energy from heaven and earth, directed by luck, turns into a spiritual seed)
Effect 1: Eat one or two wolfberries, the strength is less than 60, the strength is +1
Effect 2: Nourish and strengthen, take 10 capsules, it is as hard as iron.
After seeing it, Zhao Zhen smiled and said to Bai Duo: "My dear, this is indeed an advanced spiritual seed." After saying that, Zhao Zhen sent Zhuang Ding to Xinghua Village to get it. It takes animal blood and a little luck to turn the 2X2 land under the tree into a spiritual field just like the two [Emperor Apricots].
While waiting, Zhao Ji came over with thirty or forty male and female dealers, met Zhao Zhen, came over to meet Li, and then sent the dealers to do their own business. Zhao Zhen asked: "Zhao Ji, how are you doing here these days?"
Zhao Jida said: "Thanks to the advice of the senior officials, Ma Miao Village has been resettled, and the wasteland outside the village has been reclaimed. . There are 466 acres of land, including four acres of spiritual fields. Tianqi Temple also has 36 acres of medicinal fields, of which there are more spiritual fields than in Ma Miao Village, six acres in size, and they are all located on the top of the mountain. .”
After hearing this, Zhao Zhen said: "Zhao Ji, you are an old man in Xixi Village. Now you are serving as the village leader. If you do a good job, your promotion will be in vain."
Zhao Ji patted his chest and said: " Don't worry, high officials, I will do my best to do my job upright and live up to the high officials."
After noon, the more than twenty villagers brought by Zhao Zhen had rested. Also join the team cleaning up medicine fields. The newcomers spread out, each found a master, and followed them into the medicine field.
Zhao Zhen also picked all the black wolfberries from the tree. They had not taken care of them for a long time, and the black wolfberries had shriveled up on the branches. Zhao Zhen weighed it with his hands and found that the black wolfberry picked from this tree was more than six taels, not less than seven taels.
Before dark, the medicinal field was finally ready. Before leaving, Bai Duo couldn't help but dig some medicinal materials before going to Xinghua Village.
After a quick night's rest, the next day, after Zhao Zhen cleaned up, everyone ate salted duck eggs and drank hot porridge. Then he returned to Baishi Valley Manor with his wife and concubines, Bai Duo's family, Jiao Ting, and the villagers' team led by Fourth Sister Hei and his wife.
Bai Duo and others took the medicinal materials and went back to prepare them. Jiao Ting also dismissed the Zhuang Ding team.
The housekeeper Zhao Yuanli and Zhao Zhen said: "Master, Li San and Yan Liu paid the gold and silver and took people to the salt field. They said that they should take advantage of the river before it freezes. Go to the salt farm and bring back the salt needed by the officials."
After hearing this, Zhao Zhen nodded and asked, "What else?"
Zhao Yuanli said: "Early this morning, Zhu Fudu led a big man to surrender. Seeing that the official was not there, he left a message saying that Shi Yong, known as [General Shi] in the world, was here to surrender. After the official turned around, he sent someone to summon him. . Then he took Shi Yong back to the hotel to greet them. Sir, do you want to exchange the two of them? "
Zhao Zhen said: "Please invite the two of them to the hall quickly."
