Accompany Da Vinci's Super God Day
Chapter 25
Heidi had read Da Vinci's manuscript before, but she didn't understand it very well.
The main reason is that his handwriting is encrypted, and he can only decipher it by looking at the reflection in a mirror, and he must be able to understand those strange mechanical schematic diagrams.
Another problem is that Da Vinci is said to have tens of thousands of pages of manuscripts, and now he has accumulated dozens of notebooks, and there are too many things in the workshop.
... There is a reason why this gentleman draws too slowly.
"I thought of several kinds of war projects before, such as watchtowers or trenches with special shapes—" Da Vinci unfolded a few scrolls and showed her the design drafts inside: "There is also this kind of mobile war machine , can crush the enemy with its weight, and at the same time shoot gunpowder in all directions."
Heidi pondered for a few seconds, wanting to tell him that this thing should be called a tank.
He not only designed various siege equipment and defensive formations, but also drew improved drawings of many weapons.
Not only are they numerous in number, but they also contain various delicate mechanisms, all of which are clearly carefully designed.
Heidi looked quite involved, and was still thinking about the feasibility of some of them.
According to the current casting technology, there should be no problem.
When she came back to her senses, she realized that Da Vinci was also looking at her.
"What-what's wrong?"
"Few women like to watch this kind of stuff," Da Vinci said, considering his words, "It's more boring and abstract."
Heidi laughed, expressing her point of view in a measured manner.
"The existence of war is unknowable. If it breaks out without preparation, the consequences will be incalculable."
Da Vinci put away the scroll and said thoughtfully: "You mean, the nearby city-states or countries—"
The relationship between the church and the kings has never been harmonious, and France on the edge...
"Why didn't you show these to the lord?"
"Because," Da Vinci thought, "I didn't know him very well before."
Making these takes a lot of money and manpower, and it's not always successful.
He is also eager to do his best to protect Florence, but at present, the feasibility of everything is too low.
"let me help you."
"what?"
"These should be seen by him." Heidi stepped forward: "I think the lord should be able to understand the importance of these."
She knows that she has no roots in this strange world, but since she can get close to the center of power by accident and change the development of medicine and science in this city, she actually has unlimited possibilities.
Da Vinci stared at her and nodded solemnly.
"Thank you."
After returning to the lord's palace, Dejo took her to the office and probably explained it on the way.
Little Giuliano is now in good health, and his wife's body is gradually recovering. It is a relief that everything is developing.
And because of the lord's order, the servants are obeying her instructions, not feeding strange things to children or pregnant women, and washing their hands repeatedly to keep them clean.
Heidi was sincerely thankful for the mother and son, and when she was almost at the door of the office, she remembered the topic: "What are you looking for me this time?"
"It's for a reward, my lord."
Lorenzo had put down his book at his desk when she walked in.
He crossed his fingers, his eyes were still sharp and deep.
"You saved my wife and son." He said lightly, "Please accept the thanks and gratitude from our family."
Kexima next to him came over with a tray, and there was a Medici family coat of arms inside.
"This is……"
"I re-arranged your identity." He stood up slowly and said, "You can still keep your name, but the identity is a distant relative of the Medici who married another noble family. Three generations ago, the ancestors were friendly with each other, and Even the names of the baptized priests have been confirmed."
"Since he fled from the Holy Roman Empire, he has no identity background for a long time, and it is not safe to go anywhere."
Heidi was taken aback for a moment, but she actually let out a long sigh of relief.
Does this mean that... Medici has officially become her backer?
She was forcibly gifted with a family blood background in this era, how could she be considered a half-noble?
"Lord Lord—" She still looked at him with some uncertainty, trying to figure out some problems.
"Don't you ever suspect me?"
This question is indeed a bit inappropriate, but it should be clarified.
When she first entered the Palace of Ducairt, her identity and past were quite vague, but now Mr. Medici is ignoring her, which does not seem like a good thing.
Lorenzo looked at the young girl, and found that she seemed to be alert and alert anytime and anywhere.
"what do you wish to ask?"
"Are you... not interested in my past at all?"
Fugitives, foreigners, alchemists, and all kinds of unimaginable things.
"Everyone has secrets." Lorenzo said lightly.
"All we need is your allegiance."
Girolamo Savonarola woke up with sharp pains all over his body.
He wounded his own parts with thorns, and many of them had sores and pus, and the condition was clearly deteriorating.
This is a good thing.
Compared to those painted women, or businessmen covered in copper, only he—only he is pious enough.
God will eventually witness the destruction of it all.
The ascetic monk slowly sat up, ready to finish today's prayer.
The clay pot in the distance suddenly moved.
"--Who?"
He wanted to turn his head, but the exhaustion of his body made his reaction extremely slow, and his movements were stiff and weak.
Before he could utter another syllable, a chill came from his scarred chest.
It's cold, it hurts, what is it?
Savonarola subconsciously raised his hand to caress his chest, but found that he touched a cold and hard object.
The gurgling blood continued to flow, and there seemed to be a hole in his heart.
He opened his mouth, without even seeing the face of the killer behind him, he lost consciousness slowly in the severe pain.
God...why didn't he come to save me...
The body of the ascetic monk was secretly loaded into the straw on the back of the carriage, and burned clean after being taken to the outskirts.
There was no trace of blood left in his house, it seemed that the master had just evaporated.
The fire, with the smell of burnt straw, devoured his body, and the bones were collected and buried.
If it is true, it will be solved directly-no further trouble.
Heidi was walking towards the monastery with a basket when she heard that there was a small fire in the suburbs.
"Why did it suddenly catch fire?"
"It is said that the owner of the carriage fell asleep in the straw pile with a pipe in his mouth, and the sparks splashed the grass leaves beside him."
That was really careless, but it's good that people are fine.
Heidi came back to her senses and walked into the courtyard to find Da Vinci.
In this era, there is no CBS, and there is no TV or radio. To listen to something new, you have to talk to your friends. Everything is quite closed.
But because of this, she has a lot of free time, and she can watch the work progress of this procrastinator.
As soon as I walked in, before I saw anyone, I suddenly heard a melodious and freehand piano sound.
Who is playing the violin?
Heidi quickened her pace and entered the hall as soon as she turned a corner.
Da Vinci was holding a strange-looking long-necked piano, and there was a handsome and young boy leaning against the corner beside him. The two looked up at her at the same time.
All the boy's clothes were put aside, only a long linen cloth was tied on his body, and he was actually half naked.
No—no clothes?
They just...
"Did I disturb you?" Heidi realized something, and put the basket on the wooden table next to her: "Wine, cheese, and other snacks are prepared here, so you continue?"
"Please wait a moment—" Da Vinci suddenly called out to her: "What do you mean by interruption?"
"I, I don't mean anything else," Heidi tried to ease the atmosphere: "So you can play the piano?"
The man suddenly reached out and grabbed her wrist, frowning slightly: "They also told you those rumors?"
Sodomy, homosexuality, blasphemy?
Heidi subconsciously said: "Those are not sins."
"No, as your friend, I should make my words clear." Da Vinci stared at her and said, "I'm not gay, and I don't need to go to any brothel specially opened by the government."
"I'm just... very sex-averse, so I don't want to have too much interaction with women."
"what?"
"I always feel that sex is ugly and dirty." He took a deep breath: "I don't understand why so many people are crazy and happy about it."

【Notes on the Lantern Festival】
Medieval Contraception
Source: unknown
In one family, when the eldest son died, the father let the second son share the same room with the eldest daughter-in-law.The second child was unwilling, and felt that there was no such reason, so he left it on the ground when they had sex at night.God felt that the second child had done an abominable thing, so he killed him too.
This story, which looks very ghostly now, is recorded in Chapter 38 of "Bible Genesis".
In ancient society, productivity was a very valuable social wealth.In order to encourage people to have more children, it is not surprising that such stories appear in the stories of educating the public.
The bad thing is that the "Bible" became an inviolable classic in the European Middle Ages.Therefore, sexual intercourse for the purpose of not being pregnant is regarded as a crime.
Of course, so does contraception.For the theologians of the Middle Ages, contraception was a heinous crime, as serious a crime as murder, heresy, and witchcraft.
However, this condemnation may only remain at the theoretical level.We know that most people in the Middle Ages were very devout, but anyone who did something against the teachings had to go to church to confess.The church at that time also very "intimately" prepared confession manuals with different contents for various industries.Strangely, in the pharmacist's confession manual, there is no content about helping people with contraception.Scholars believe that this shows that pharmacists at the time did not provide this type of service.Moreover, there was almost no mention of contraceptive crimes in the secular laws of the time, and there were few such records in literary works.
There are two possible reasons.Either that or people didn't use contraception much at the time. "What to be afraid of, the big deal is to be born."Or it was that people at that time knew some contraceptive methods, and the things on the bed were not known to outsiders.Contraception is indeed listed in the confession manual prepared for ordinary people, but it is impossible to know how many people have come to confess it.
Therefore, the popularity of contraception in the Middle Ages is really a bad book.
However, what we can know is that there are already records about contraceptives in the medical works of the time.
For example, there are concoctions described in the literature that speed up menstruation or cleanse the uterus.These blends can also be used to address unintended pregnancy distress.For example, a medieval cookbook "Antidotarium" records that several herbs can be mixed to accelerate the arrival of menstruation, including yellow edge agave, lip calyx mint, aristolochia, mugwort, myrrh, licorice, Pepper, Parsley and Cranegrass etc.Whether this mixed decoction can be effective depends entirely on the content of certain ingredients in it.For example, pepper is actually useless to pregnant women, unless the sneeze is too strong.And lip mint and crane lice, it is said that the effect is not bad.Therefore, it is recommended that modern women should not be curious to try.
Artemisia argyi is very harmful to the human body, and it was also used as poison at that time
In addition to biochemical drugs, means of isolation were also noted at the time.In the "Pharmacopia" written by Avicenna, it is recommended to put mint into the lower body of women before intercourse, and it is believed that the oil secreted by cedar has a spermicidal effect.In addition, sponges, herbal pastes and other messy things, such as animal feces, were also considered by people at the time to be stuffed into the lower body to isolate conception.
Of course, "remedy after the event" is indispensable.If a woman doesn't want to have kids, wait until she's done and start exercising.Jump up and then squat down, trying to shake it out, but does this method work?It's basically useless except to make the thighs thicker.
If the above-mentioned things are still somewhat related to scientific exploration, then the means of magic or witchcraft are estimated to frighten men, resulting in their inability to function normally.For example, before intercourse, the testicles or mule meat are hung on the body, because mules cannot reproduce. At that time, people hoped that the testicles of mules would also have this effect.Later, I don’t know how to do it, the testicles of mules are not necessary, women only need to hang a piece of donkey skin in front of the bed, and later weasel testicles are also acceptable.Others advise men to drink tea made from willow bark before going to bed, because it is said in medical books that sexual desire comes from body heat, and willow bark has the effect of cooling blood...
German women’s witchcraft brains are even bigger, such as padding fingers under the buttocks when they are in the same room, a few pads will bless you for several years without pregnancy; Voice: I will not have children!such as.
The main reason is that his handwriting is encrypted, and he can only decipher it by looking at the reflection in a mirror, and he must be able to understand those strange mechanical schematic diagrams.
Another problem is that Da Vinci is said to have tens of thousands of pages of manuscripts, and now he has accumulated dozens of notebooks, and there are too many things in the workshop.

Not only are they numerous in number, but they also contain various delicate mechanisms, all of which are clearly carefully designed.
