Huang Wuzhi, a villager in HupA village, Shuikou Town, Dehua City, Fujian Province, accidentally pulled out a 620 gram 'strange egg' from the belly of an old sow he had raised for five years when he slaughtered it. Many villagers speculated that it was' pig sand '. This morning, he turned to our newspaper for help to identify what this is.

The reporter saw from the photos passed by Huang Wuzhi that 'strange egg' is oval in shape, light yellow in appearance, and has two or three centimeters of hair on its whole body. Huang Wuzhi said that when he touched it with his hand, the 'strange egg' was hard. He used a knife to cut a small hole in the villi, and found that it was yellow, a little fragrant, like the fragrance of medicinal materials. He measured it with a ruler. It was about 17 cm long and about 10 cm wide at the thickest part, with a total weight of 620 grams.
Huang Wuzhi introduced that his family raised 20 pigs. This sow was raised four or five years ago, and has the same feed as other pigs. By this year, it has reached four or five hundred jin. Originally, it would produce one or two litters of piglets every year, with a relatively high rate of litter production. The largest litter would produce 20 piglets. At the beginning of this year, after it produced a litter, it no longer gave birth. Recently, he found that this sow is more picky and anorexic than other pigs. At ordinary times, after eating, other pigs sleep in the pigsty, but this pig is always in a "noisy circle", and Donggong and Xigong just don't sleep.

On the 27th, he asked Huang Bensi to help him. At that time, he was also helping. He felt that there was something hard in the pig's stomach and didn't know what it was. As a result, he opened a hole and rolled out a light yellow oval hairy thing from it, which startled everyone. Huang Wuzhi said that at that time, it was covered with dirty things and almost thrown away. Later, his father's friends came and speculated that the monster might be the precious Chinese herbal medicine 'pigsty'. He rushed to clean it.
"The old man in the village said that cattle have bezoars, dogs have dog treasure, pigs have pig litter. But since no one has ever seen real pig litter, we don't know what it is. Huang Wuzhi told reporters that he had never seen master Huang, who had 40 or 50 years of experience in killing pigs. "What is it? Please help me find an expert to identify it!" https://love.4hw.com.cn/animal/33619.html (from all over the world)
The reporter searched the Internet. Many netizens said that the market price of pig sand is about 10000 yuan per gram. If that's the case, Huang Wuzhi's "pig sand" is worth more than 6 million yuan.
Pig cinnabar, also known as pig cinnabar, is a stone in the gallbladder, bile duct, hepatic duct and other organs of pigs. It looks like beans, or powder, pink or brown in appearance, with a little luster on the surface. Pig sand is a kind of rare and scarce traditional Chinese medicine, which has a long formation time and a short feeding period, so it is rarely found in pigs, but occasionally. It can be used in the treatment of insomnia, sedation, detoxification, etc.
