Li Yuan stepped up and walked towards the mugwort bush he found.

A green mugwort bush was displayed in front of Li Yuan.Even though Li Yuan was still four or five meters away from the mugwort at this time, the strong fragrance from the mugwort had already reached Li Yuan's nostrils.

Li Yuan didn't even need to identify it carefully, just by smelling it, he was sure that the plant in front of him must be mugwort.

Li Yuan took a deep breath, feeling that his whole body was immersed in the scent of mugwort.

Although this kind of smell is not as refreshing as the scent of flowers, it has a unique taste of nature...

Li Yuan nodded and said, "It's indeed mugwort."

"The leaves of mugwort are generally grayish-green like this, and the fragrance is much stronger than other fake mugwort."

"Also, the stems of this mugwort are almost all solitary or a few. The color is brown or taupe."

"And at the base of the leaves, there will be some lignified appearance, the upper part will be woody, and there are a few short branches. The leaves are thick, showing a papery shape, and there will be gray-white short hairs on them."

Because many people in the live broadcast room did not know mugwort, and there were many cases of buying fake mugwort, so Li Yuan introduced mugwort very carefully.

In order to make it more intuitive for everyone to see, Li Yuan simply chopped off a mugwort, and then compared it with the annua he picked before.

"Look, everyone, comparing them this way, isn't the difference between them much more obvious?"

Studio.

"Isn't this Artemisia annua? Where did the anchor come from?"

"What's the situation, this Qinghao...why was it suddenly taken out by the anchor?"

"If I'm not mistaken just now, the anchor seems to have taken it out of his pocket?"

"No way?"

"So, the anchor keeps putting this Artemisia annua on his body?"

Li Yuan nodded, taking it for granted.

Li Yuan: "Yes. Didn't you say you don't know each other? Comparing this Artemisia annua, Mugwort, and some other fake Artemisiae together, isn't it more intuitive?"

"Why, don't you know?"

Studio.

"It's clear, it can't be clearer."

"very clear!"

"I'll go...You can do it, anchor."

"Young Master Li family really took great pains to prevent us from being deceived!"

"Haha, no."

"I just want to ask, if we can't find Artemisia argyi today, will the host still carry this Artemisia annua that he found before with him?"

"We can't let down the good intentions of the anchor!"

"Haha, that's right."

"If you can still get it wrong, you are stupid!"

In this way, Li Yuan put the two plants on the ground, not in a hurry to pick the mugwort, but compared them one by one, pointing out their differences.

While talking, it happened that Li Yuan discovered another plant that was very similar to mugwort, that is, a plant named wild mugwort.

The three plants were lined up by the anchor, and they started to call names one by one.

That scene... Seriously, but also a little bit funny, it can be described as very interesting.

Li Yuan: "Artemisia argyi is a group of plants that can be used as medicine. It has the functions of warming the meridians, removing dampness, dispelling cold, stopping bleeding, reducing inflammation, relieving asthma, relieving cough, preventing miscarriage, and anti-allergy."

"Aihao also has many other aliases, such as Xiaomao, Bingtai, Jucao, Xiangai, Qiai, Aixiao, Penggao, Ai, Moxibustion, Medical Herb, Yellow Grass, Moxa, etc."

"For example, when I made a traditional Chinese medicine mixed bag last time, I mentioned mugwort to everyone."

"But for mugwort, in fact, around the Dragon Boat Festival is the best time to pick mugwort, and it is also the time when mugwort has the best medicinal effect."

"The distribution of Artemisia argyi is very wide, unless it is a particularly arid and alpine area, it is almost all over the country. Artemisia argyi grows in wastelands, roadsides, rivers, and hillsides in low-to-medium-altitude areas. It can also be found in forest grassland and grassland areas, and it is the dominant species in plant communities in some areas."

"The wormwood has a very close relationship with the life of our people from ancient times to the present."

"As we all know, on the occasion of the Dragon Boat Festival, every household will put mugwort in their homes to 'ward off evil spirits' and 'repel insects'. They also use mugwort to soak in water when they wash their faces in the morning to pray for blessings. "

"And the reason for this custom is because wormwood has a special fragrance, which has the effect of repelling mosquitoes. Therefore, the ancients often hung wormwood in front of the door, firstly to avoid evil spirits, and secondly to Keep mosquitoes away.

"In addition to the customs of the Dragon Boat Festival, the usage rate of mugwort in this herbal medicine itself is also extremely high."

"Soaking the dried mugwort plants in water and fumigation can achieve the effect of disinfection and anti-itching, so pregnant women can use mugwort water for bathing or fumigation."

"The mugwort leaves are dried and crushed to get the most commonly used moxa in acupuncture and moxibustion in traditional Chinese medicine. Making moxa sticks from moxa is one of the most commonly used methods of mugwort."

"In addition, mugwort can also be used as a raw material for ink pads."

"According to the medical records of past dynasties, one of the main functions of mugwort is to stop bleeding, and mugwort is also one of the commonly used gynecological medicines because it can treat deficiency and coldness."

"Mogwort can also treat chronic bronchitis and asthma in the elderly. Boiling water and bathing can prevent maternal and child infections during the puerperium. It can also be made into medicinal pillows and medicinal vests to prevent chronic bronchitis or asthma in the elderly and stomach pain due to deficiency and cold."

"In addition, the whole plant can be used as pesticide to kill insects or smoke can be used as room disinfection and insecticide. This method of use is similar to hanging on the door."

For the plant of mugwort, it is actually very popular in traditional Chinese medicine.

Mugwort has the effects of regulating menstruation and stopping bleeding, preventing miscarriage and stopping collapse, dispelling cold and dehumidification.Treat irregular menstruation, dysmenorrhea, abdominal pain, miscarriage, uterine bleeding, cure rheumatoid arthritis, head wind, menstrual wind, etc.

And because it can cut ice balls and burn all kinds of diseases, it has become the most commonly used medicine by doctors.

These uses of mugwort have been proven in modern experimental research, whether it is its antibacterial and antiviral effects, or the effects of relieving asthma, antitussive and expectorant, they are all quite good.

Studio.

"I've never seen mugwort, but I've seen a lot of mugwort strips!"

"So the moxa strips were made out of this thing?"

"Mugwort is indeed a rare and good thing..."

"Girl's uterus is cold, smoked moxa strips are really useful!"

"I just want to ask... this herbal medicine... can I eat it?"

"It seems to be able to make tea!"

"Can't you?"

"This thing is used for medicine, so it shouldn't be eaten?"

"It's definitely possible! There are mugwort ingredients in the important potion!"

Li Yuan: "Of course mugwort can be eaten."
