What is "cerumen"?
The two words "cerumen" are both next to "ear", so it must be related to the presence of ears. In fact, the "cerumen" of is just the "earwax" as the saying goes.
But "cerumen" always gives people a closer feeling, while "earwax/earwax" makes you stay away.
It can be seen how important a good name is for and .
Ear canal structure
Of course, cerumen has other stranger and puzzling names, such as "ear ink ", "brain paste ", " mud pill " and so on. In order to show that you are literate, you can pretend to say when you pick your ears next time: "Attention , I am going to pluck out my brain and paste !" Illiterate people will think you are going to commit suicide, haha!
"困四" means "to advise, to entrust". It is probably meant to be spoken close to the ear. The two characters "荍" and "寛" have similar glyphs and the same pronunciation, so they may come from the same source. However, in this way, the lyrics of "Don't forget/a warning of peace" are a bit hard to look at.
"Cerumen" is not garbage
Cerumen is a greasy substance secreted by the cerumen glands located in the external auditory canal, which can protect the external auditory canal from fungi and bacteria.
Moreover, cerumen has a special smell that can scare away various small bugs and prevent them from getting into the external auditory canal. Even if the bugs don't have a good nose, the stickiness of the cerumen can stick to the bugs and prevent them from "exploring" deeper. Therefore, the ancients said " earwax is as valuable as gold" (not just saying that the color is like gold).
Cerumen (earwax) can protect our ear canals (may not include the situation in the picture)
Don't mention it, Traditional Chinese medicine has "earplugs" as a medicine, which is actually "cerumen (earwax)", which can be used as medicine . The medical book clearly states:
Ear plugs
[Explanation name] Earwax, brain paste, mud pill fat
[Odor] Salty, bitter, warm, and poisonous.
[Indications] Mad ghosts and alcoholism. (Ming Dynasty) Those who are stung by snakes, insects, and centipedes will be treated well. After
, you should keep the ones you take out for later use (just kidding, take them away quickly, I don’t want this).
Iranian Scientists and "Earwax Insecticides"
Zhansi also read a story called "Earwax and Insecticides", which basically means that a scientist thought of earwax to repel insects, so I put the effective Once the ingredients are extracted, wouldn't it be possible to invent a "non-toxic pesticide"? Haha, smart as me, the scientist thought. Later, the " earwax insecticide " was indeed invented, and it was recommended that the trademark be registered as " Ergou insecticide ". Well, it’s a very good story, especially suitable for middle school students to write essays.
The difficult-to-produce "earwax insecticide"
But wait, this story seems a bit fishy.
First of all, there are several versions of this story. One moment, the scientist was inspired by his wife saying that there were no non-toxic pesticides. Another time, he encountered a colleague who said there was too much earwax. Another time, his wife died from using pesticides. Pet dogs, to name a few. Moreover, the name of this scientist is also strange. There is no such person found anywhere else. The only story is that he invented earwax insecticide. Some articles even stated in a serious and conclusive manner, "Eladi Khrabi is a great inventor born in Iran, and he has more than 400 invention patents to his name." In order to appear real, I really tried too hard.
"Ear Wax Pesticide"
Therefore, Zhansi has to suspect that the story of the so-called "Ear Wax Pesticide", as well as the stories of Newton apples and Washington walnut trees , were all fabricated by someone..
The "story" of Iranian scientist Eladi Hrabi
But the story is still circulating, and it obviously affects the hearts of many people...
The "earwax killer" that affects people's hearts "Insecticide"
really doesn't work, let's use this first...
"Try and you will die"
is exactly:
Thousands of warnings should be listened to, and tens of thousands of cerumen is the medicinal property.
