    Now is an information age, we are inevitably curious about ancient times, so when there was no paper in ancient times, how did countries wipe their butts? After reading it, you will definitely be stunned!

    First of all, let's talk about the country of Japan, not to mention that they are already eccentric, as far as he wiped his ass without paper, it was reflected in the fact that they used cicada wings, and everyone has seen the wings of cicadas, so thin as cicada wings, it is hard to imagine how many layers to stack when wiping the butt so that it will not break and get it on your hands, think about it carefully, not only weird but also disgusting, you have to catch it before going to the toilet. But the Japanese gave a reason that everyone had to convince, saying that it was to better know the lesions of the anus, because the cicada wings are transparent and easy to understand.

    If Japan is eccentric, then Russia is extravagant. The emperor of Russia used a goose neck at that time, yes, that's right, a goose neck! It is reported that the emperor of Russia would kill a goose before going to the toilet every time, and wipe it with the goose's neck after going to the toilet.

    It's a bit of a miserable feeling.

    But if you want to talk about luxury, England is also extravagant enough, in the mid-15th century, the British royal family used salmon meat fillets, the reason given is not only to prevent odor but also to treat hemorrhoids, although I don't know if this function has any effect, but the degree of luxury is not comparable to ordinary countries. I wonder if the used salmon will be made into a dish by mistake if it is not thrown away.

    Compared with the above countries, our country is normal, from the leaves and stone pieces to small bamboo pieces, small wood chips, hemp rope, hemp paper and finally straw paper, is a process of evolution from ancient to modern times in our country.
