But Hunan found a kind of ancient book, and at that time, it did not dare to take it out and publish it, and it was even robbed by Japan!

In 1972, the Mawangdui Han Tomb in Changsha, Hunan Province, which was sensational at home and abroad, was discovered, an ancient tomb of nearly 2,200 years ago, which unearthed a large number of precious cultural relics. Among them, there are two of the most eye-catching, the first is a thousand-year-old incorruptible female corpse: Mrs. Xin Chai, who created a miracle in the history of human embalming, and when she was unearthed, the skin was still elastic, and the face was like a life, which was extremely shocking! The second is the two pieces of ancient "erotic underwear" of only 48 grams and 49 grams: plain gauze shirts, modern experts spent 13 years to copy with high technology to create a 49.5 grams of replicas, and there is a difference of 0.5 grams, which shows that ancient technology is too advanced! Both of these are absolute top national treasures, but they are also a national treasure level cultural relics, which were difficult for archaeologists to talk about at the time, so that for a long time, they were not announced to the public.

A large number of Chinese herbal medicines have been unearthed from the mawangdui Han tomb, as well as 14 kinds of ancient medical books such as "Health Preservation Formula", "Heyin Yang", and "Fifty-two Pulse Fang", which are written on five pieces of cloth and 200 bamboo sticks. Among them, "Health Preservation Formula" is known as a strange book in the history of Chinese medicine, 500 years earlier than the "Yellow Emperor's Inner Classic"! It became the royal magic formula of the imperial family in the Han Dynasty, mainly recording the knowledge of disease elimination and longevity. However, after following Mrs. Xin Chai to the burial, she disappeared, and later Hua Tuo also "shanzhai" certain recipes according to the legend, and his disciples Wu Jin and Fan A both lived past 100 years old according to this party, which shows the magic of this book! It is said that such a big discovery should be published in time, but because several ancient medical techniques such as "Health Preservation Formula" have recorded a large number of "room techniques", their contents have not been announced to the public.

"Room technique", as the name suggests, is a book that records the intercourse between men and women, which mainly contains sexual skills, sexual dysfunction treatment and conception, etc., it is extremely closely related to Taoism, so it has a mysterious color. The ancients believed that the purpose of health and longevity could be achieved through intercourse, of course, there is no scientific basis in the present, but the health care skills in "Health Care" are still very valuable for research. However, in that particular era, the ideas were very conservative, and if published, people may only see the "yellow" in it rather than the academic value. In the context of talking about "sex" discoloration, I have not dared to announce it to the public, for fear of causing unnecessary trouble. When Mr. Zhou Shirong, an expert involved in archaeology at that time, published the interpretation, he did not dare to use the three words "room technique", but changed it to "Changsha Mawangdui No. 3 Han Tomb Bamboo Jane "Health Preservation Formula" Interpretation".

When Zhou Shirong was in archaeology, he personally tasted the remaining liquor in the lacquer bell of the Mawangdui Han Tomb! In 2012, the state officially lifted the ban on "Health Care Party", and the first major achievement of the lifting of the ban was that according to the records in the ancient book, the health wine configured by the original party became the first first-class cultural relics to be "lifted from civil use" after the founding of New China. In fact, before that, there have been corresponding Traditional Chinese medicines that have been copied and commercialized. The secret recipes of more than 2,200 years ago are still outdated in modern times, which is really amazing, and the ancients have too many lost things waiting for us to discover.
