    Business agency, September 5 news in the altitude of 3000 meters high mountain medicine, fog lost mountain road, dangerous road and snake appear Twelve students and two instructors from Shenyang Pharmaceutical University went to Qinling region of Shaanxi Province to carry out a 17 day scientific investigation of Chinese medicine resources Teachers and students visited 51 mountains, including Taibai Mountain, the main peak of Qinling Mountains, Aoshan mountain, the second peak of Qinling Mountains, etc., and brought back 503 kinds of medicinal materials after a journey of 7146 kilometers More than 2300 specimens were made, including more than three rare Chinese medicinal materials at home and abroad: monocotyledon grass, Fritillaria Taibai, and rice Taibai, And local people to treat tuberculosis, eczema, hypertension and other nearly 70 herbal prescriptions On September 4, the reporter interviewed Professor Jia Jingming of Shenyang Pharmaceutical University, the leader of the scientific research team At an altitude of 3200 meters, teachers and students found the clover at an altitude of 3000 meters in the Qinling Mountains The Chinese medicine scientific research team found the rare clover The one leaf grass looks strange There is only one leaf on the bare stem "That's why it's called monocotyledon." Jia Jingming told reporters that monocotyledonous grass is the ancestor of herbaceous plants, which is very rare The Chinese medicine scientific research team set out on July 13 After arriving in Qinling, the scientific research team began to climb the mountain to find medicine When climbing Aoshan mountain, it rained heavily in the mountain As the rain grew, the fog became thicker and thicker This mountain is originally very steep A section of slope close to 90 degrees is the famous "donkey training slope" "If you look back, you will see the abyss." The members of the 30 kg climbing bag took care of each other to climb over the dangerous slope At an altitude of 3200 meters or so, the team leader's teacher was surprised to find a piece of lush grass "Look, it's single leaf grass!" the team members couldn't conceal their joy To ensure the integrity of the roots, they did not use shovels, but dug with both hands "We camped on the mountain that night, and the tent was full of rain In order to keep the fire that was not easy to start, the boys stayed up late to protect the fire and everyone's safety " "Monophylla is a kind of national key protected wild plant It is very rare and has a very important scientific value for the study of angiosperm evolution." Jia said that in the future, there will also be "living" teaching materials Collect Taibai medicinal materials When encountering high mountains and lost mountains, you often encounter strong winds, heavy rain and thick fog On the Taibai Mountain, the main peak of the Qinling Mountains, which is 3767 meters above sea level, the scientific research team has encountered many difficulties The temperature on the mountain is only 0 ℃, when encountering strong wind, the instantaneous wind force can reach grade 8 However, these difficulties did not let the scientific research team give up There are many kinds of drugs in Taibai Mountain There are more than 40 kinds of drugs named "Taibai", such as Fritillaria Taibai, Coptis Taibai, rice Taibai, flower Taibai, etc When climbing Taibai Mountain, little snakes often appear on both sides of them The most dangerous part of the mountain road is when the small team hit the top of Aoshan mountain Due to the heavy rain and fog, the farmer with more than 30 years of experience has lost his way "The temperature at the top of the mountain is close to 0 ℃, and the wind force is 8 degrees, but it can't disperse the dense fog around We were shaking and our lips were purple with cold " After nearly 3 hours of groping, thanks to the experienced leader Jia Jingming's calm decision, he finally found the way to come However, also in such a dangerous environment in Taibai Mountain, the scientific research team found Taibai rice and Taibai Fritillaria "Look carefully There are grains of rice at its root." Ding Dawei, a member of the expedition and a junior, pointed to the specimen of Taibaimi and said that if someone has a stomachache, it would be good to take one Because of its rarity, it costs more than 2000 yuan per kilogram, but it has not been developed yet Another example is Taibai Fritillaria, which is also used for medicine It can clear the lungs and remove heat These rare medicinal materials are mostly in mountainous areas with high altitude and primitive forests, so the road of scientific research is extremely difficult The next goal is to go to Tibet and Guizhou for the scientific examination, 12 of which are selected from 323 college students They stand out after physical test and comprehensive stress test It can be said that all the members of the scientific research team are excellent and powerful Every year after graduation, many large recruitment enterprises are eager to sign contracts, or even hire without interview "Every day, we start at 7 a.m and camp around 5 p.m and we still have to sort out the samples of traditional Chinese medicine we found that day We are often busy until 1:00 a.m In order to survive in the field, every member of the team should know how to cooperate with each other and avoid danger In the primitive forest, there is no signal, we can only rely on a whistle to contact, which is a great test for these post-90s young people " Professor Jia Jingming said that next year, the scientific research team will continue to select members among college students, and the next goal is to go to Tibet and Guizhou for scientific research.
