Wu Yong, Chao Gai and other seven people wise to take the birth of the platform, is also all on this drug. When it comes to this medicine, people who have read martial arts novels will not be unfamiliar with it, it is colorless and tasteless, and is often placed in the wine, and the good men of the green forest are put down a lot. In the new martial arts novels, we also often see its figure. We’ll talk about this kind of jianghu let the strong men also can not do anything about the masked sweat. Narcotics: the former life of sweat pills Speaking of putting down the big man, then the power of this sweat pills in the end how fierce? The Water Margin” is described as follows: “Although he just drank half a scoop of wine, the mouth just screamed bitter, soft body, struggling. And others, more head heavy, one face to face, watching Wu Yong and others to load the birth certificate, just can not move, can not shout. And Chao Gai and other people do not panic, unload the dates, loaded on the birth certificate, push up the car, facing Yang Zhi and others, shouted disturbance, thanks and so on words will go away.” The sweat drug was drunk at noon, and only woke up in the first shift. During the period, “soft body”, “head heavy” “can not move” “can not shout”, the good men are also There is nothing they can do. According to the description of the novel, the anaesthesia of the drug lasted for more than ten hours, which is actually the same as what we call anesthesia now. The earliest reference to the use of sweat pills can be traced back to the use of anesthetics. The first use of anesthesia was in medical treatment, and it was the magicians Bian Magpie and Hua Tuo who used it to “cut open the chest and explore the heart”. More than 2,000 years ago, the book “Lie Zi – Tang Wen” recorded that Bian Magpie treated Gong Hu and Qi Ying, “Bian Magpie then drank poisoned wine from them and died for three days. It is also recorded in the “Biography of Hua Tuo” in Volume 29 of the “Three Kingdoms”: “If the disease is accumulated inside, and the visions of the medicine cannot be reached, and when it is necessary to cut, then he will induce his anesthesia, and in a short time he will die as if drunk, without knowing. Because of the broken take. If the disease is in the intestine, it will be broken intestine decoction, sewing abdominal cream mo, four or five days difference, no pain, people also do not wake up, between January, that is, recovery.” Therefore, Hua Tuo is honored as the first person in the world to use anesthesia to perform thoracic surgery. Unfortunately, Hua Tuo’s work “Qing Nang Jing” and the formula of Ma Bo San have been lost. However, the term “monk’s sweat” has been used against enemies since its inception. The term “monk sweat medicine” began in the Yuan Dynasty and was first seen in “Water Margin”. In a search of Yuan dynasty literature, the term “monk sweat medicine” appeared 18 times, “Water Margin” contains 17 of these records, “All Yuan Miscellaneous Drama” has a record. The earliest is the story recorded in the Old Book of Tang about An Lushan killing the enemy with scopolamine in wine: “Both fat and large not to be war, before and after more than ten times to deceive the Khitan, banquet set wine with scopolamine, pre-digging a pit, waiting for them to get drunk, beheaded and buried, all do not feel dead, dozens of people each time.” The history of the Song dynasty and Sima Guang’s “Blossom water record” recorded in many places Du Qi in Guangxi to suppress the rebellion, the use of mandarins to kill the enemy story: “Du Qi word Weichang, for Hunan transit deputy envoy. Five streams barbarian rebellion, QI with gold and silk official titles to lure out of the, because set up a banquet, drink to mandala wine, faint, all killed, where thousands of people. ” The Chinese medical community’s masked sweat As a folk secret art, masked sweat is a very mysterious thing in the eyes of many people. Later researchers believe that mandrake flowers are the main ingredient in the making of monk’s sweat medicine. The main components of mandrake flowers are scopolamine, scopolamine and a small amount of atropine, and the main component that acts as an anesthetic is scopolamine. Scopolamine The first time a prescription explicitly written out in the name of monk sweat medicine was in the late Ming dynasty Mei Yuanshui’s “Medicine will be yuan”: “sheep tramp …… with it Luo flower , Chuan Wu, grass Wu combined with the end, that is, monk sweat medicine.” The four herbs mentioned here are all commonly used in Chinese medicine. Li Shizhen in the “Compendium of Materia Medica” meticulously described the magic of this flower: “Legend has it that this flower, laughing pick wine drink, people laugh; dance pick wine drink, people dance. I tried this, drink must be half full, more make a person or laugh or dance to lead it, is also tested.” The production of sweat medicine: “August pick this flower, July pick fire marijuana flowers (that is, hemp), dried, equal to the end, hot wine mix to take three money, a little dizzy as drunk, cut sores moxibustion fire, first should take this, then do not feel bitter.” The antidote to monk sweat drug: inspired by the soybean can “solve the poison of 100 drugs”, Li Shizhen had conducted several experiments, and finally found that soybeans with licorice can solve the monk sweat drug. After the Ming and Qing dynasties, the expressions of “maddening medicine”, “monk’s medicine”, “dumb medicine” and “hazy medicine” began to appear. In the “ear talk class addendum” introduced “with aconite, pepper, southern star, half asia, calla lilies, arsenic and dozens of other flavors, the manufacture of ecstasy. These are not very different from the previous descriptions of masking pills. Later, some authors mentioned a kind of smoky way to charm people bored incense or soul-breaking incense, etc.. Some novels describe it as “doubly harmful than sweat pills”. Subway ecstasy: the present life of sweat pills? Station ecstasy: we can hear a variety of “ecstasy party”, “pat flowers” story, such as station blowing incense, handkerchief incense, flyers, cab incense, pat shoulder incense … … In short, it is to make you unconsciously hit, either fainted or obediently take out the money to the other side, the “ecstasy” used, is also known as is the modern sweat pills. The first is to put drugs containing anesthetic ingredients in drinks and food to make people unconscious and unconscious; the second is the use of preparations containing chili powder, ammonia, tear gas and other ingredients, sprayed on the face, so that people’s eyes, nose and throat due to strong stimulation and temporary loss of The third is the rumored use of the so-called “ecstasy”, by tapping people’s shoulders, spraying people’s faces, or give a sniff to make people lose consciousness. The so-called “subway incense” is the main component of ammonia, and menthol, camphor and other ingredients, there is no control of human consciousness and the effectiveness of action. As for the third, it is generally believed that by tapping a person’s shoulder or give a sniff to make people lose consciousness is rarely the case. Inhaled anesthetics, even at very high concentrations, require more than two minutes to cause unconsciousness, and the prerequisite for this effect is that the person must be in a closed environment, such as pouring the inhaled anesthetic on a towel and covering the person’s mouth and nose, in order to anesthetize them.
