The live broadcast life of Lao Linzi in Northeast China

Chapter 668 This thing is really a precious medicinal material (for subscription)
Hearing this, Li Yuan couldn't help frowning and shaking his head.

"There are fewer leeches...that's not something to be thankful for."

"There are fewer leeches because more and more chemical fertilizers and pesticides are used. With the advancement of medicine, the efficacy of leeches has been unearthed more and more. Therefore, in recent years, predatory capture of leeches has begun."

"It is precisely because of this that the resources of wild leeches are becoming less and less, but even so, it is still far from meeting the demand for medicine."

Today's leeches have become a popular drug.

And because of the scarcity of supply, wild leeches can no longer meet the medicinal needs, and have begun to enter the stage of artificial breeding.

Fortunately, leeches have strong vitality, and because leeches are hermaphrodites, they reproduce extremely fast, making them easier to feed and manage.

The scale of artificial breeding of leeches can be large or small, with less investment and high benefits, so the threshold for breeding is also lower.

Moreover, one mu of water surface breeding pond can harvest finished leeches weighing 400 kilograms. If all of them are sold, the value will even exceed 2 yuan. It can be said to be a very potential way to get rich.

Studio.

"Are leeches so popular?"

"The price is so expensive?!"

"This thing is really a precious medicinal material..."

"It's not cheap."

"The number of wild leeches is indeed much less now, Fangzheng is much less than what I saw when I was young."

"It's also possible...it's because everyone has fewer opportunities to go into the water now."

"That's right."

Li Yuan smiled and said, "Well, leeches are indeed considered as valuable traditional Chinese medicine."

"Moreover, as the discovered functions of leeches increase, no matter whether they are dry or fresh, they are very popular nowadays."

"Now there are even many plastic surgeons and microsurgeons who use the blood-sucking properties of medical leeches to remove blood stasis in vascular occlusion areas after surgery."

"In this way, the veins can be unobstructed, the occurrence of tissue necrosis can be reduced, and the time for the formation of collateral circulation in the veins can be bought, thereby greatly increasing the success rate of replantation or transplantation of fingers, toes, ears, and noses."

"And the example of using leeches to treat diseases has been experimented as early as 1987."

"At that time, our doctors successfully used hungry blood-sucking leeches, also known as Japanese medical leeches, to successfully remove postoperative blood stasis for a patient who had replanted a severed finger."

Studio.

"So arrogant?"

"So... a leech is also half a doctor?"

"It seems that the blood-sucking effect of this leech is quite effective."

"For the sake of this thing being able to cure diseases... I will forgive it for sucking my blood when I was a child."

"Hey, I thought this thing was disgusting at first, and it's fine even if it's all dead, but after being said so by the anchor, let's forget it."

"That's right, it would be nice to use their lives to cure more people."

Li Yuan nodded.

"In any case, the existence of leeches is still very meaningful, so it is not necessary to let them disappear, and as long as everyone pays attention when entering the water, and try not to go to the places where these leeches like to live, there is no problem."

"And even if the skin is bitten by leeches, there is no need to be nervous. Just rinse with salt water and the leeches will fall off our skin quickly."

Leeches are a kind of mollusk similar to earthworms, and a fatal shortcoming of this kind of mollusk is that they do not have any skin protection.

Skin can be an animal's first protective barrier, and leeches are very sensitive to salt because they don't have skin.After sprinkling salt, the salt and its body fluids form high-concentration saline, and the high-concentration saline will cause it to contract stress, prompting the internal body fluid to leak out, leading to dehydration and death.

Studio.

"Salt? Is it good?"

"When I was a child, I used the soles of my shoes to take pictures...the thighs were red when I took pictures, so this thing can come out."

"Yes, yes, there is another way to use fire."

"The host's method works very well! Just use salt, it's super easy to use!"

"I also used this method when I was a child to shoot with soles. Although it hurts a bit, it is still easy to use."

Li Yuan: "Well, there are actually many ways to get rid of being nailed by leeches, so don't panic after being bitten by leeches in the wild, just use high-concentration salt water to drip on the leeches, or just like the friends in the live broadcast room What they say is shooting is a very good way.”

"Shooting is mainly to let the leeches fall off by means of vibration. But of course, the place to be photographed will suffer a little bit."

"In addition, you can also apply soapy water, smoke oil, wine, vinegar, etc. on the leeches, which can also quickly make the leeches fall to the ground."

"There is also fire, and the stimulation of high temperature will also make the leeches unbearable and loosen their mouthpieces."

"But no matter which method you use, don't choose to pull it out by hand! This is very dangerous."

Leeches have two suction cups. If you pull them out forcefully, it may have the opposite effect and make them suck more tightly.

At the same time, pulling hard will cause the mouthparts of the leech to break off and fall under the skin, causing infection.

"After the leech falls off, the bite wound must be dealt with in time, otherwise it will easily cause inflammation."

"It's like applying some iodine or alcohol to carry out a local disinfection. If you don't have these things, don't worry. You can burn bamboo leaves into charcoal ashes, or mash young bamboo leaves and apply them on the wound. It can achieve the purpose of preventing infection and stopping bleeding.”

Studio.

"Can you still use wine and vinegar? I've never heard of this method."

"I figured it out. The method the anchor said was mainly to stimulate the leeches!"

"This leech is too miserable..."

"Use liquor! Get him drunk!"

"It's fine to get drunk, don't just have a drink with someone..."

"If you want me to say, no matter which method you choose, it's best not to be bitten by it. After all, the taste...is really uncomfortable!"

Li Yuan smiled and said, "Of course, although there are many ways to deal with leeches, being bitten by them and sucking blood must be uncomfortable, so it's better to take some precautions."

"It's like going fishing by the river, you can prepare breathable trousers in advance."

"And you still have to put socks on the outside of the trouser legs and tie them tightly! The leeches are pervasive. If you must expose the exposed places, you must apply some mosquito repellent or anti-spreading ointment in advance."

"When you emit this smell all over your body, leeches will naturally stay away. They are still very sensitive to this smell."

Studio.

"Every time the anchor said the method is so effective!"

"It is necessary, the anchor has always been very practical."
