Bab 360: 360: The Quest for the Poison Worm (5)

The fluid of the poison worm is the most precious, and its medicinal effects are the most noticeable, with the dried shell as a close second in effectiveness. According to the Compendium of Materia Medica, the poison worm from the Hmong Region has the power to dissolve blood stasis and reduce swelling.

What it means by reducing swelling is that it can shrink and even eliminate lumps, which aligns with Tara Summer's research on inhibiting the growth of cancer cells.

The two then stayed in the village for another week, and Elder Sutton indeed fulfilled his promise, really managing to locate fifteen of them.

Tara was grateful, thinking that she had enough for her research. To thank the villagers, she wrote them a check for two hundred thousand.
