Chapter 11: The Trapped Dragon Formation

The most important scene of the general folk capping is the upper beam, the upper beam is first purified with pure incense and clean charms, and then the main carpenter moves the axe to take the size of the beam.

The size is made according to the auspicious size of the house on its building, after the making, if you have not yet chosen an auspicious day, you must first "send the beam", that is, the finished middle beam is placed in the temple or a clean place to be erected, incense is piled up, and the auspicious day of the beam is waited.

Because religious people believe that the beams and trees after moving the axes are already sacred relics including the "Liang God" and cannot be touched and polluted by people, the center of the beam is tied with red silk thread and the two ends are circled with red paper.

Flowers, red candles, fat cakes (two parts of each are symmetrical) and three small bowls of round boys, fruits and five animals, carpentry utensils such as ink fountains, curved rulers, etc. The upper beam work requires two dragons and tigers.

Generally, there is a saying that "the dragon and tiger are in the position", which is more auspicious and powerful to match the dragon and tiger, which helps the temple to prosper peacefully. The wood master of the upper beam should tie a strip of red silk cloth around the waist, and the red cloth has the effect of warding off evil spirits

Fish, goose, tofu, eggs, salt and soy sauce are five or seven colors in the process of putting on the beam, and a wooden red lacquer sacrificial plate is placed at the top of the offering table, and twenty-four bowls of other dishes and twelve pots of fruits from the north and south. Paste couplets such as "Shangliang Xin coincides with the Zodiac Day, and the column coincides with the purple microstar".

Yellow or green paper for couplets, avoid using red paper, hang red silk at both ends of the beam, and the red silk droops down to clear Shunzhi Tongdian, take the meaning of "peace and shun".

After the carpenters on the beam should first purify themselves, the next is to "worship the beam" to be clean, and then pray to the gods of the temple, the landlord of the Three Realms, the god of the house of the five directions, the master of Luban, the god of Liang, etc., after inviting the gods, the host points the two ends of the beam with a red pen called "Dianliang Eye", after the beam, by the two zodiac dragon and tiger people, according to the direction of the temple's left green dragon and right white tiger will raise the beam, usually just symbolically lifted, and then executed by the master and assistant.

The two ends of the beam are pasted with "yuanzai" (rice balls), symbolizing that the beam and the structure of the temple are closely integrated, and the longevity gold tied to it is also joined into the temple building along with the beam, so as to seek the longevity and immortality of the temple.

When the beam was raised, all the worshippers inside and outside the temple shouted, "Come in!" "Come in!" In this lively and prosperous sound, the beam rises to the roof and joins the joint, called "Guixiu", at this time, firecrackers are set off, gold is burned, and the ceremony is completed.

Regarding the placement of the middle beams, for east-west facing houses, the beams face north and the beams tail face south. For north-south buildings, the beams face east and the beams end west.

It is taboo to watch people who are not yet on the anniversary, have entered the inner room of the month, and women during menstruation, and avoid it when they are rushing to Xiao.

But the most critical thing in building Zhenhai Tower is not the upper beam, but the need to use the corpse of the craftsman to cap the top after the beam, and the body of the main carpenter needs to be hung on the beam, which is called the sacrificial beam, also called the cap of the carpenter's corpse.

Because the corpse of the craftsman can only be the master carpenter, and the yang energy on the main carpenter is heavier than that of any craftsman, so he is the best choice! ”

Since ancient times, the completion of some influential items has required the sacrifice of the craftsman's life.

There is a famous sword in history, for the cadre, the cadre, the most famous blacksmith in the Chu country, the sword he made is extremely sharp, the king of Chu knows, so he ordered the cadres to cast a sword for him.

It took the officer three years to forge a pair of swords, the best swords he had ever forged in his life. can

It was the cadres who understood that if he got a rare sword in the world, he would definitely kill the person who forged the sword, and sure enough, when Mo Ye and his wife cast the sword for the king of Wu, "three hundred boys, girls and boys were filled with charcoal", Mo Xie also reverently cut off his hair and nails and threw them into the furnace to "gravel gold", and another craftsman of Wu even "killed his two sons to provoke gold with blood."

Therefore, Zhenhai Tower also has to be capped with a craftsman's corpse, and the craftsman's corpse wants to find the best, so the people behind the scenes asked Commander Wu's eldest brother to intervene, and it turned out that they had already thought about sealing Commander Wu's eldest brother alive on the sorghum. ”。

This so-called capping of the corpse of the craftsman is to seal the body of the craftsman in the top beam on the day of the capping, which is the "eye" of the entire trapped dragon bureau.

Therefore, in order to save his life, Commander Wu's eldest brother faked his death to escape, so he disappeared and made a living by robbing tombs.

Because the Dragon Trap Bureau is to build a building here, and only the building can suppress the evil dragon below, so after Commander Wu finished speaking, he would not mention it.

"Hahaha, it's really a good opportunity, since that's the case, then ask this master to help me build a trapped dragon bureau", after Liu Dashuai finished speaking, he directly asked people to arrest Commander Wu's eldest brother.

Because Liu Dashuai was worried about the evil dragon in the water before, since he already has a master, then he can get the treasure land he wants, and naturally he will not let Commander Wu's eldest brother leave.

But it took seven years to build this trapped dragon bureau, and the reason why it was repaired for seven years was because he had not found a craftsman corpse that could be sealed, and Liu Dashuai didn't want to kill Commander Wu's eldest brother, so he kept looking for a suitable craftsman corpse.

However, according to legend, when Liu Dashuai was not completed in the trapping dragon game, he opened the coffin inside the chair tomb and got a piece of gold leaf from the coffin, and there was such a text on the gold leaf.

A.D. 223 (Shu Han Zhangwu three years) summer April, Shu King Liu Bei died, in May, Liu Chan is the emperor, changed the Yuan Jianxing, after June, Yizhou County Han strong Yonghong, taking advantage of Shu in Yiling to see the new defeat of Shu Han, Liu Bei died of illness and Huang Yuan rebellion chaos opportunity, instigated Ke County Taishou Zhu Bao, Yuewang County Gaoding and Yizhou County minority leader Meng Huo and other rebellions, kill Yizhou County Taishou Zhengang, anti-Shu Han regime.
