As the saying goes, "rely on the mountain to feed the mountain and water to draw water". For farmers living in mountainous areas, this sentence is undoubtedly very correct. In the rural mountains, there are all kinds of weeds, for these weeds, most of the peasant friends in the mountainous areas are very fond of them. Some weeds can be eaten as wild vegetables, some weeds can cure diseases, and even many peasant friends in their spare time. Will also go to the mountains to dig some weeds to sell money to subsidize the family, so they are very familiar with many weeds.

However, for most people, there are still a lot of weeds unfamiliar, especially those strange weeds. Below, the author introduces such a strange weed, which many people do not know.

In the afternoon, the author went to dig weeds in the mountains with several farmers in the village. I saw a lot of strange weeds in the mountains, one of which was very interesting. these farmers in the mountain area call it "pheasant tail" or "peacock tail".

When you first hear about a pheasant tail or a peacock tail, most people probably think it is a pheasant or peacock tail. In fact, it is not, it is a kind of weed, the reason why it has such a strange name is because its leaves are shaped like the tail of a pheasant, like a peacock, hence its name.

In fact, the scientific name of pheasant tail is "wild pheasant tail fern". If you are not familiar with it, you would think it is celery. Its leaves and stems are very similar to celery.

Wild pheasant Dryopteris is an uncommon weed, which is mainly distributed in Shaanxi, Henan, Hubei, Hunan, Sichuan, Hebei, Guizhou, Yunnan and other places in China, and it grows mainly in shady and wet places such as woods or streams in mountainous areas. therefore, except for the old peasant friends in the mountain area, people outside have not seen this kind of weed, let alone know it.

Despite the strange growth of this weed, it is a big treasure in the hearts of many mountain farmers, and it used to be a good cure for the poor people in many mountain areas.

According to these peasant friends in the mountain area, the whole grass and root of this wild pheasant can be used as medicine, and its taste is bitter, and the whole grass has the effects of clearing heat and detoxification, reducing fire, stopping bleeding and promoting dampness. can be used for fall injury, burn, scald, diarrhea, jaundice, hepatitis, dysentery, hemoptysis, mad dog bite, food, pesticide, drug poisoning and other symptoms.

And its root medicine has the effect of clearing heat, cooling blood and stopping bleeding, and can be used for exogenous wind and heat, sore throat, hematemesis, hematochezia, hematuria and other symptoms.

It is precisely because the wild pheasant tail golden powder fern has these good medicinal values that it is deeply loved by mountain farmers, and according to these mountain farmers, because there is no such weed outside, it has now become a rare commodity, which can be sold for about 10 yuan a catty. On weekdays, when it is at rest, it will come to the mountains to dig some to sell to subsidize the family.
