Chapter 525: The Secret of Longevity

In the wall made of glutinous rice, you can see a few iron chains, and there are some iron pipes in the middle, which should be the device on this mechanism, I looked at the gaps between these iron pipes, and I found the largest one to start digging, Luoyang shovel is naturally necessary for us to this kind of inverted bucket, this kind of glutinous rice and lime mixed wall, dig up with Luoyang shovel, to get twice the result with half the effort, the ancients never thought that later generations would invent Luoyang shovel such a good thing.

A group of people changed to work, this glutinous rice wall is harder than stones, Luoyang shovel down, basically only bring out a little soil each time, but fortunately, we have a lot of strength, and there are fat men and Liang Zi, the fierce man, after about half an hour, the entire hole was dug into it by more than 20 centimeters.

"Come on, work harder, after breaking through this wall, I'll open this mechanism freely." The old gelding leaned against the wall, not looking at the hole in the explosion, but just smoking a cigarette while listening to the sound of the knock knock.

He's an old man, and we're naturally not embarrassed to let him come over and do this kind of manual work, but if we really want to talk about it, this old man's strength may be greater than mine.

It is said that this eunuch lives longer than a normal man, this single from the castration bullet, but it can be seen that one or two, although this old man looks more than sixty, but the real grade is probably bigger, when chatting with him before, this old man likes to talk about some things about the War of Resistance against Japan at every turn, some things can not be told by hearsay, look at his appearance as if he has experienced it.

If you calculate it this way, the eunuch is estimated to be seventy or eighty years old, people of this age want to say that they can still go to the tomb, normal I really haven't seen one, but I heard Ge Lao talk about one or two, one is the fourth uncle of the Chen family, and the other is the immortal backer of the Li family, Li Tianshun, these two old men are simply the same virtue as my father, the older they are, the more they like to drill into the ancient tomb.

And the strange product of the feudal society of eunuchs is not only in China, looking at the whole world, like ancient Egypt and ancient Greece, there have been eunuchs, but there is no civilization like the eunuchs in the Chinese civilization, has a very long history, and has developed for more than 2,000 years, until the last emperor, that is, after the abdication of Aixin Jueluo Puyi, the eunuchs disappeared on the stage of history.

Why should there be eunuchs?

Naturally, in order to ensure the purity of the emperor's blood, the existence of other men is not allowed in the palace, and a large number of miscellaneous servants are needed in the palace, many things are not done by palace maids, and there is a strange product of eunuchs.

However, it is easy to understand why eunuchs live long, health preservation is to pay attention to a guard of yang, and although eunuchs have been castrated, there is not much masculinity left, but they can't afford to squander, naturally they live longer than normal men, which can also be seen from the emperor, from ancient times to the present, no emperor is long-lived.

As long as you count the big data, it is easy to see that in the history of the Chinese lineage, there have been more than 400 emperors, half of whom have not lived to be 50 years old, of course, some have been killed by people, but that is only a few, and there are only six people who can live past the age of 80.

This is a very interesting academic question, so who exactly are these six people? Five of them are the founding emperors, the kind of emperors who can kill the enemy on the battlefield, the only exception to this is the empress, and Huaxia is just such a female emperor Wu Zetian.

Count the remaining five people, the first is Kublai Khan, the ancestor of the Yuan dynasty, who lived to be eighty years old, how fierce was the founding emperor of the Yuan Dynasty? It was really a lifelong war, and until he died, he was thinking about continuing to expand his territory, and after destroying the Southern Song Dynasty and unifying the whole country, he began to fight Vietnam, Burma, Japan or something, and the word southern and northern wars was used to describe Kublai Khan.

In 1274, Kublai Khan directly got nearly 1,000 ships of all sizes, 15,000 officers and soldiers, and set out to attack Little Japan.

This second emperor who lived to be eighty years old is Song Gaozong, this emperor lived to be eighty-one years old, and many people are not convinced, because he is the tenth emperor of the Song Dynasty, but he is also the real founding emperor, because he is the first emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty, but he has not made any achievements, he is the one who killed Yue Fei by listening to Qin Hui's words, but it is really difficult for future generations to say that such a thing as becoming a king or losing a king.

This third emperor, I think it is also the most alternative emperor, that is, Emperor Wu of Liang Xiao Yan, the Liang Dynasty was established during the Northern and Southern Dynasties, you must know that at that time in the Northern and Southern Dynasties, changing the emperor was the same as changing a local tyrant for a girlfriend, and Xiao Yan directly reigned for forty-eight years, this is a good emperor who thinks that he is diligent, and he should also be the emperor who does not want to be the emperor the most.

The fourth influence is also the greatest, is the Qianlong Emperor, Qing Gaozong loves Xinjueluo Hongli, he is also the longest-living emperor in history, at the age of 89, when Qianlong was prosperous, it was enough to dominate the world.

And the fifth emperor is not considered an orthodox emperor, but the grade is indeed the largest, that is, Emperor Wu of Nanyue, who lived for one hundred and three years, and at that time Nanyue was a vassal state of Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty.

However, there are actually quite a lot of famous eunuchs, except for those few negative characters, the most famous should be Sima Qian, who was killed after offending Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

Let's talk about the steps of castration, ordinary people may think, that is, a knife down to cut off the matter, but the real implementation is not the same thing, when the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, Hong Xiuquan occupied Nanjing, at that time the harem was also countless, afraid of being cuckolded, so he directly got a group of famous Western doctors from Guangzhou at that time, and the result was that more than 100 people were directly cut to death, and the knife craftsmen in the capital at that time, in this technology, directly suppressed Western medicine.

When this gives people a clean body, the famous knife will only need a kang, a cabinet, a knife, and the general operation is selected in the late spring and early summer, at this time there is no heat, and there are no mosquitoes and flies.

Before the operation, a bowl of stinky marijuana will be boiled for the eunuch to drink, stinky marijuana is also a mandala flower, which can be used for anesthesia, and then there is a series of surgeries, but this craft has long been lost, after the eunuch is cut, it is not over, and the next month is the most painful time.

"That's it!"

With a soft snort from Liang Zi, the wall was finally opened, and the eunuch also came to the spirit, and after putting away the pipe, he immediately got up and walked over.
