Chapter 59: Tips
As people age, they tend to have minor problems.
The same is true for people in this world.
After Jian Mo said that people who feel unwell can come over to see him, their temporary cave has never been empty during the day.
Kuang Ning, who went out to exchange pickled meat for Qinhai tribe, came back and was surprised to see that everyone went to Jian Mo's place to see a doctor. He specifically pulled a familiar beastman and asked, "Doctor Jian Mo can really cure diseases?"
"Yes." The beastman showed him his legs, "You know my legs hurt in winter. After Doctor Jian Mo applied medicine these two days, it's much better now."
Kuang Ning looked at his legs, which still had traces of herbs, and said, "It's really effective. What did he get?"
"He said he wanted animal hair, so I gave him two baskets of tatar hair, and he gave me one basket in return, so it was one basket of tatar hair." After the companion finished speaking, he suggested, "Don't you have something growing on your hand? Why don't you take this opportunity to let Doctor Jian Mo take a look?"
Kuang Ning hesitated: "Then I'll go find him."
Kuang Ning took his companion to the temporary cave where Jian Mo and his friends lived to find him.
The cave, which was usually deserted and no one came, was now full of people, and Kuang Ning could hardly squeeze in.
In the crowd, Wu Jiong was changing someone's dressing in a corner of the cave.
After Kuang Ning entered, he greeted his fellow tribesmen along the way, and also greeted Wu Jiong: "Chief Wu Jiong."
Wu Jiong nodded: "Jian Mo is inside."
Jian Mo was holding a wooden needle in his hand, piercing the finger of a little orc.
When he was a child, his grandmother had pierced his finger like this. During this period, he picked it up and tried it on several children. The effect was good, so he picked up this treatment method.
In addition to acupuncture, he also picked up a lot of treatment methods during this period. They were all treated while groping. They may not be useful to people, but they must not have major harm, so they can be tried.
He used boiled disposable wooden needles. The little orc was held by his finger. He wanted to hide but didn't dare to, and two lines of tears hung on his cheeks.
Seeing Kuang Ning coming, the little orc looked up, then looked at Jian Mo: "Doctor Jian Mo, can you be gentler?"
Jian Mo said gently: "Okay, then baby be brave and don't struggle, okay? I'll do it soon."
The little orc nodded vigorously: "Doctor Jian Mo, hurry up!"
Jian Mo skillfully pricked the knuckles of the little orc's palm a few times, releasing tissue fluid and black blood beads, and squeezed a few more times: "Okay. What a brave baby."
The little orc breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.
Jian Mo took off his gloves, searched in the basket, and took out three digestive pills wrapped in dry leaves from an animal skin bag: "Take one tonight, and once tomorrow morning and tomorrow night, you should be almost well. Eat a light diet in the next two days, don't eat too much meat, especially salted meat." The
little orc's father nodded repeatedly: "Thank you, Doctor Jian Mo."
Jian Mo touched the little orc's head and put on his gloves again: "You're welcome, go back."
Kuang Ning saw that there was no one else waiting, so he sat on the chair opposite Jian Mo: "Doctor Jian Mo."
Jian Mo smiled and said: "You are back?"
Kuang Ning nodded, and sighed: "I have only been out for a few days, and the tribe has changed a lot."
Jian Mo: "It should be fine? What's wrong with you? Let me see."
Kuang Ning rolled up his sleeves: "I have been getting pimples for the past two years. It's a bit itchy when I pinch it, but it's fine when I don't pinch it."
Jian Mo looked at his arm, and there were indeed small pimples on it.
The pimples were red, with a small dot on the top. There were also traces of pinching on his arms, one by one.
Many of the pimple problems are just manifestations. The real causes of pimples are varied. On Earth, they can be ruled out through various tests, but it is really difficult in this world.
After a careful inspection, Jian Mo thought for a moment: "You said that you've been getting pimples for the past two years, so didn't you have them before?"
Kuang Ning nodded repeatedly: "Yes, I didn't have them before, but they suddenly started to grow in the summer before last. When they first grew, they grew in large patches, even on my face. It got better afterwards, and I only had them on my body and occasionally on my face, but they never went away."
It could be a hormone problem, or it could be a food problem.
Jian Mo thought for a while: "Did you suddenly find a new food the summer before last?"
Kuang Ning was excited: "Yes, yes, we found the thorn fruit. Is it the thorn fruit's problem? But everyone eats it, and no one else has any problem, but I have been getting bumps after eating it."
Jian Mo: "People are different, you may be allergic to this fruit. Do you still eat this fruit now?"
Kuang Ning was a little embarrassed: "The shell of this fruit can be used to remove fishy smells, and it tastes good when cooked with meat."
Jian Mo: "Then it may be a problem with this fruit. You should stop eating this fruit for a while and see how it goes then."
Kuang Ning Ning: "Is it that simple?"
Jian Mo: "Let's try it first, maybe, let's see how lucky we are."
Jian Mo took out a piece of soap wrapped in leaves from the basket: "If you take a bath these two days, you can use this thing to wash, apply it on your body after getting it wet, and then keep rubbing your body, and then wash it with clean water after rubbing."
Kuang Ning: "Oh, okay, okay. Doctor Jian Mo, do you want me to give you anything?"
Jian Mo raised his head and smiled: "Give me two pieces of pickled meat, that's enough."
Kuang Ning: "I'll get it for you right away!"
Jian Mo originally only wanted to stay in the Qinhai tribe for one more day to see everyone, but he didn't expect that he couldn't leave on the third day.
In such a large tribe, everyone has all kinds of minor ailments.
Toothache, skin disease, old cold legs, insomnia, hair loss... Jian Mo can't actually solve most of them, he can only slightly alleviate them.
Despite this, the people of Qinhai tribe were still very satisfied and grateful to him.
On the afternoon of the third day, after Jian Mo finished treating the patients, he took Wu Jiong to find Shu Guang, the chief of Qinhai tribe, and told him that there were no more patients for the time being and they were going to go back tomorrow. Shu
Guang had also asked Jian Mo for massage in the past two days, which relieved his back pain. He was very grateful to him and repeatedly said that he would send them off tomorrow.
Jian Mo declined, saying that they would take the flying beast back and didn't need to be sent off.
The flying beast's diet is similar to that of the people of the Qinhai tribe. In the past two days, the people of the Qinhai tribe gave the flying beast one portion of food for every one portion they ate.
This family was quite happy to have a full stomach after eating from a variety of meals. Every day, they played with a group of bear cubs from the Qinhai tribe.
Jian Mo saw that the flying beast was able to retract its claws and tail well and had no intention of hurting anyone. Moreover, the bear cubs from the Qinhai tribe were also very agile and would not be hurt by the flying beast. So he taught them to be careful when playing and left it alone.
Now the two sides have developed a preliminary relationship and get along pretty well.
After seeing the flying beast, Jian Mo returned to the cave where he lived temporarily and counted the supplies he had collected in the past few days.
The supplies he collected for each patient were not many, but when they were piled together, they were quite impressive. Tomorrow, it might be hard for Jiujiu and his family to take care of them.
Just as Jian Mo and Wu Jiong were sorting out the supplies, someone called them from outside: "Doctor Jian Mo, Chief Wu Jiong?"
Jian Mo heard the voice sounded familiar, and shouted directly outside: "We are here, come in directly."
It was Kuang Ning who came in.
Kuang Ning's face was full of excitement: "Doctor Jian Mo, my pimples are indeed caused by the thorn fruit. I haven't eaten the thorn fruit shells for the past two days, and I no longer have new pimples on my body, and the original pimples are almost gone."
Jian Mo stood up: "That's great, let me see."
Kuang Ning immediately rolled up his sleeves to show him: "Look, the pimples have become very small."
Jian Mo saw that the skin on Kuang Ning's arms had become smooth, the original small pimples had subsided to the size of goose bumps, and there were no scratches on his body. He estimated that it was not so itchy anymore, and he was very happy for him: "You may really be allergic to the thorn fruit. Try not to eat it in the future."
Kuang Ning: "I definitely won't eat it! It's been a pain for me these two years. It's always itchy, and it doesn't look good."
Jian Mo patted his shoulder gently, silently comforting him.
Kuang Ning put down his sleeves and said to Jian Mo with a sharp gaze: "Doctor Jian Mo, didn't you come here this time to get the big-leaf garlic? I know how to remove most of the bitter taste in the big-leaf garlic!"
Jian Mo looked at him in surprise.
Kuang Ning smiled and said, "You cured my disease, and I have nothing else to thank you for, so I just want to teach you this."
Jian Mo: "Is this your secret recipe?"
Kuang Ning: "It's okay, as long as you don't tell anyone else. Come with me to our cave and I'll teach you?"
Jian Mo hesitated for a moment. He really liked the smell of garlic leaves, and now he had this opportunity, so he agreed: "Okay, thank you."
Kuang Ning: "You're welcome, come on, come on, come to our cave and sit down, just in time to treat you to barbecue with garlic leaves."
Kuang Ning took Jian Mo and Wu Jiong back to his own cave.
Although he had been in a relationship with an orc for many years, he still had no cubs. The two of them lived a life of two, and their life was quite easy.
Their caves are also clean, tidy and very large.
As soon as Jian Mo entered, he saw cloths hanging on the walls of the cave for decoration. There were various embroidered patterns on the decorations. He couldn't help but say, "Your cave is so beautiful!"
Kuang Ning immediately wanted to take the cloths off the wall: "Give them to you."
Jian Mo hurriedly stopped him: "Hey, how can you do that?"
Kuang Ning: "We exchanged this from other tribes with pickled meat. We can exchange it again after a while. Although the cloths hanging on the wall will be smoked by the smoke, we can just wash them after being smoked. It's better than smoked the cave. It's really difficult to deal with the smoked cave."
Jian Mo praised his wisdom in life, but resolutely refused: "Indeed. But you don't have to give it to us. We have a lot of cloth at home. I will find it for decoration after we go back.
"I like to dress up the cave beautifully. A beautiful place to live in makes people feel good." After a few words, everyone got closer. Kuang Ning took them to sit by the fire and went outside to find the frozen meat: "
Part of the meat in our house is marinated and then frozen. When it is taken out and roasted, it is particularly flavorful and delicious."
Jian Mo raised his thumb: "I sometimes do this too."
Kuang Ning smiled: "Really? Sometimes you don't need to thaw it when you want to roast it. You can put it directly on the fire. It will be very juicy and tender when roasted." Kuang Ning
's partner took the meat and roasted it on the stone slab, while Kuang Ning found a pot to wash the pot and brought in a handful of frozen large-leaf garlic roots.
Kuang Ning showed it to Jian Mo: "We also wash these large-leaf garlic roots and then freeze them. I am used to processing them when I use them, so that the fragrance will be stronger. If they are processed and left for a while, the fragrance will be much less. I don’t know why?"
Jian Mo said: "It is volatile. After processing and not using them, the fragrant substances in them will escape into the air, basically gone."
Kuang Ning didn’t quite understand, and smiled and said: "Anyway, they have to be cooked and used immediately. In fact, it is also very simple to remove the bitterness inside, just fry it in oil. Fry until golden and crispy. After they are crispy, pick up the roots of the garlic and use them separately. Don't use the oil. The bitter taste of the garlic roots is all in the oil. "
Jian Mo suddenly realized: "So that's it!"
Kuang Ning smiled and said, "It's that simple. There is also a little trick here. When frying the roots of the garlic, you have to chop them up and wash them, otherwise they will become bitter and have another bitter taste. That bitterness cannot be removed by oil."
Jian Mo: "It will be bitter if it is burnt."
Kuang Ning: "Yes!"
There is no technical content in frying the roots of the garlic. Just wash and chop them, put them in the oil pan and fry them patiently.
As they fry, the whole cave is filled with fragrance. The rich aroma of onion and garlic is very tempting.
Kuang Ning watched while frying: "When the weather is warm, we will fry outside. When it's cold, there is no other way, so we can only fry in the cave. But after frying, we open the window and let the smell go."
Their cave also has windows, and just like the Riverside Tribe before, they use a large wooden board to block the window, which is considered to be closed.
Seeing that it was almost done, Kuang Ning picked up the roots of the large-leaf garlic, put them in a mortar, then added a handful of coarse salt, and crushed them into powder while they were still boiling: "Look, this is the large-leaf garlic spice we usually use."
Jian Mo took the spice powder he picked up, dipped his finger in it and tasted it: "It's amazing, this is indeed the spice powder I am familiar with."
Kuang Ning smiled: "Right, you can also add other spices, the taste will be better when combined. When eating barbecue, use it to dip the meat, the taste is even better."
Jian Mo gave him a thumbs up and said admiringly, "I've learned it."
