Recently, a fan asked in a private message, how do so many bachelors in Liangshan solve their physiological needs?Some people also asked, how did the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in Liangshan finally deal with it?Was there a sewer system in ancient times?Will the feces of tens of thousands of horses block Liangshan into a stinky ditch?
I have no way to answer how to solve the physiological needs of Liangshan heroes, I only know that most of the Liangshan heroes are not close to women, of course, they may all be bent.
As for how to deal with the feces pulled by the people and horses of Liangshan, this question can still be talked about with you.
First of all, feces had a very nice name in ancient times, called night incense, and some people here said, why not call it night smell?Did the excrement pulled by the ancients smell good?In fact, this is really possible, let's not say that it is very fragrant, at least it does not stink as modern people.
Because the ancients generally preferred a light diet, their eating Xi was very healthy in comparison, far less than the current oil and water, and the metabolized impurities were likely to be less smelly.
Well, the above is pure nonsense, the main reason is because the ancient literati spoke in crepe, and it would be too uncivilized to call feces a night smell.
In order to be more elegant, the ancients even regarded manure as a treasure, in addition to being used as fertilizer for agriculture and animal husbandry, some old Chinese medicine practitioners will also make manure into traditional Chinese medicine, but the requirements for manure and the production method are quite strict, a total of four steps.
The first step is to collect feces first, and the time and type of collection are very particular, it must be the feces excreted by healthy people who have not been sick in winter, because the temperature is low in winter, feces are not easy to breed bacteria, and then the feces during this time are not so smelly.
The second step is to collect good pure natural spring water, preferably the kind from Nongfu Spring, it doesn't matter if you can't get it, the water in the deep well is fine.
The third step is to collect red soil, which is not red soil, but a slightly acidic soil that has lived under vegetation for a long time, and this soil contains a lot of iron, which is just enough to replenish all the needs of the body.
After all this preparation, it comes to the last step, processing and filtration, as for the specific processing, I will not repeat it here.
It should be noted that after processing, it must be sealed tightly, and then buried in the ground, at least one year or even ten or eight years to form a good pair of traditional Chinese medicine, and this kind of traditional Chinese medicine made of feces, the ancients called it golden juice.
According to folk legend, gold juice has the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying, and it is said that people with high fever only need to drink a little, but here is a solemn reminder not to try this home remedies.
The above information is all on the Internet, and there is no scientific evidence, so everyone should have fun listening to it, and don't take it seriously.
To get back to the point, as for how Liangshan will deal with the feces of the soldiers, I think it is not impossible to make it into traditional Chinese medicine according to the above method to treat the heroes, after all, the heroes on Liangshan are overeating all day long, and it is inevitable that they will not get sick in the long run.
In addition, there is a divine doctor An Daoquan on the slope of Liangshan, if the task of making gold juice from feces is given to him, it will naturally belong to the professional counterpart, and maybe he can concoct a better medical effect.
Of course, these are just my personal speculations, and they are not mentioned in the original book of Water Margin, but the word gold juice is mentioned many times in the book, but gold juice is equivalent to ancient biochemistry here.
Ancient soldiers often used it when defending the city, and its production method is certainly not the above-mentioned one, it refers to boiled dung, and then add arsenic and other poisons to it, if the enemy climbs the tower along the ladder, the defenders will splash these hot and smelly boiling water gold juice.
The siege soldiers are disgusted to the point that it is certain, and the key is that they will also be burned and infected until they lose their combat effectiveness, because these unfiltered feces contain a lot of germs, and once they are burned, these bacteria will enter the human body through the wound, and the consequences can be imagined.
In the thirtieth episode of the Water Margin, when Qin Ming attacked Qingfeng Mountain, the soldiers guarding the village used gold juice, and later Liang Zhongshu also used this thing to guard the Daming Mansion.
It can be seen that the use of feces is still relatively extensive, as long as Song Jiang is willing to use it, it is a good medicine for curing diseases, and the fertilizer of the soil can even be used as a biochemical ** in the war, if he is not willing to use it, then he can only be a ball of.
