The centipede, also known as Tianlong or Hundred-footed Worm, is warm in nature, pungent in taste, and toxic. It has functions such as calming wind and relieving pain, attacking toxins and dispersing nodules, stopping spasms and relieving pain, and fighting cancer. It mainly treats hemiplegia, tetanus, bone tuberculosis, scrofula, venomous snake bites, infantile convulsions, stroke, etc. Modern research shows that the main components of centipedes are histamine, hemolytic protein, various amino acids, fatty amines, and cholesterol. In addition, it also contains orange pigment and pale blue-green pigment, etc. Centipede toxin has a primary hemolytic effect on the central nervous system of rats, with nicotine-like blocking acetylcholine properties, which can cause necrosis and disappearance of spermatogonial cells in mice, indicating an inhibitory effect on tumor cells. In recent years, it has shown good therapeutic effects on digestive system tumors and cancers. The centipede is also one of the main ingredients in traditional Chinese medicine preparations such as snake medicine tablets, detoxifying ointment, and wind-dispelling and blood-activating pills. Therefore, centipedes are indispensable among animal medicines, and their medicinal value is highly regarded by medical experts at home and abroad.

The adult centipede is about 12 cm long, 0.5-1.1 cm wide, slightly flattened from back to belly, with a nearly round head plate protruding at the front. The head plate and the first dorsal plate are golden yellow, hence it is also called the Golden Head Centipede. They are distributed across both southern and northern China, with wild populations mainly found in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River.
Centipedes often inhabit hilly areas and sandy soil low mountains, fields, roadsides with dense weeds, or hide in dark and damp corners under piles of firewood, rotten wood, gaps between stones, rubble, or near kitchen corners. During the day, they hide in their nests to avoid light and rest, coming out to move around, forage, and mate after 8 PM. The peak activity period for centipedes is between 8 PM and midnight.

Centipedes are omnivorous animals, feeding on various insects, animal viscera, vegetables, fruits, and kitchen scraps.
According to records in "Changguo Dianyong," people in Molixin Ridge bred centipedes as a field crop for use in pharmacies, indicating that this practice has been around for a long time. However, there are no reports of such practices today.
Molixin Ridge is located within Daishan County in Zhejiang Province, renowned for its abundance of medicinal centipedes. Locals engage in the business of medicinal centipedes and manage suitable habitats for them, protecting their populations and improving their growth environments by providing food supplements, allowing them to reproduce. After harvesting, they sell the centipedes to pharmaceutical merchants for payment to support their livelihoods. This shows that there were people engaged in medicinal centipede farming in ancient China, with experience in Wenzhou centipede breeding.
