In the mountainous areas of southern China, especially in Guizhou, Sichuan and Hubei, the climate is relatively hot and humid, and there are many mosquitoes, snakes and ants in summer. Farmers in the mountains are inseparable from the mountains, and people often go up to the mountains to cut dead branches, collect firewood and look for mountain treasures. Before entering the mountains in summer, farmers will wear long-sleeved trousers. One is that the mountains are cooler, and the second is that they can prevent mosquitoes, insects, snakes and ants. But there are always omissions, it is easy to be bitten by snakes accidentally, and experienced farmers will look for an herb where snakes are infested and apply it to the wound.

Generally speaking, the most common snake in the mountain is the "scale snake", because it has a black line, just like the scale on the scale used by people in the old days, so the folk call it the scale snake. The scale snake itself is non-toxic, but wild snakes have a lot of parasites and bacteria in their mouths, coupled with their sharp teeth, which need to be dealt with if they are bitten. The scale snake likes to eat bird eggs, and most of the places it haunts have bird nests. If you are bitten by it accidentally, you can look for a plant called "weighing rod snake medicine" nearby.

Weighing rod snake medicine in the folk known as "dragon grass", its leaves are oval, flowers are white cylindrical flowers, the whole grass can be used medicinally. The main effect is heat-clearing and detoxification, which is specially used to treat scale snake bites and has a good effect on traumatic swelling and poison. The usage is to mash the dragon grass and apply it to the affected area. it can also be collected and dried and preserved in the sun after going home. However, dragon grass is mainly used to deal with non-toxic weighing rod snakes. If bitten by other poisonous snakes, it is recommended not to take medicine on your own and should go to the hospital as soon as possible.
