Chapter 142: The Eight Characters Are Too Hard
But less than a year later, the two families died cleanly, and there was not a single one left. Some people say that the collision with Tai Sui was already a very serious matter, and they also used a knife to dissect Tai Sui, which led to the unknown death of all their two families.
At that time, I hadn't hunted ghosts with my grandfather, and naturally I hadn't read "Hundred Techniques". During a chill ride, the fourth grandmother told us children about it. I asked stupidly, Fourth Grandma, what is Tai Sui? Why did you collide with Tai Sui?
The fourth grandmother patted my head and scolded, you are so stupid! How to read! Haven't you heard of "breaking ground on Tai Sui's head"? "Breaking ground on the head of Tai Sui" is an old Chinese saying. Can you not believe the old saying? It indicates a taboo that does not lead to disaster.
Many people like to say cruel things when they say, "Are you tired of being crooked?" Dare to break ground on Tai Sui's head! I often hear these words, and I know that this sentence is a threat like "dare to pluck the hair on the tiger's buttocks", but I have never thought about what "Tai Sui" is, and I have never thought about how I can't "break ground" on the head of "Tai Sui".
At that time, the four grandmothers beat and scolded, and I didn't dare to ask again. Later, on "Hundred Arts", I saw the relevant explanation.
Tai Sui was originally a hypothetical star name in ancient astronomy. Tai Sui corresponds to the star of the year. Jupiter's star is Jupiter. The ancients believed that the year star was every 12 years and one day, so the ecliptic was divided into 12 equal parts, and the part where the year star was located was the name of the year, with a total of 12 year names: Shouxing, Dahuo, Ximu, Xingji, Xuanqi, Zhuzi, Lou, Daliang, Solid Pillow, Quail Head, Quail Fire, and Quail Tail. There are records in ancient books such as "the year is in the quail fire" and "the year is in the star age". The direction of the movement of the year star is from west to east, which is exactly the opposite direction of dividing the ecliptic into twelve branches, and the ancients deduced a Tai Sui, which runs in the opposite direction to the actual movement of the year star, and the ancients used the part of the year where the year was six years old. For example, Tai Sui is called Setig in Yin, and Shan Yan is called in Mao. Later, it was supplemented with a ten-year-old yang to form sixty cadres and branches, which were used to chronicle the years.
Tai Sui has one day every 12 years, which is exactly the same as the 12 earthly branches that indicate the direction. In the year of Jiazi, Jiazi is Tai Sui. In the year of Yichou, Yichou is Tai Sui, and so on until the year of Guihai.
Feng Shui believes that the Tai Sui star is in a bad position every year, and if the earth is broken to build a house or a grave in this direction during the year, it will cause disaster.
Later, in a history class, the teacher also talked about "Tai Sui". The history teacher was really knowledgeable, but his mouth was a little crooked, and when he spoke, it was especially serious. However, this did not affect the quality of his lectures.
He crooked his mouth and said like a river: The concept of colliding with Tai Sui was produced as early as the pre-Qin period. "Xunzi Confucianism" recorded: "The punishment of the martial king is also, and the day of the line is to be jealous of the southeast and welcome the six-year-old." This account says that when King Wu was defeated, it was a day when soldiers were taboo. The minister at that time advised that he was in the north and should not go north. King Wu didn't listen, and the result was against Tai Sui, and King Wu's army went to the water, and the water swelled; Walking to Huaishui, Huaishui soared. The weather became colder, it rained heavily day and night, and the morale of the army was shaken. Fortunately, with the help of the gods, the evil turned into good fortune and destroyed the Shang Dynasty.
A famous man named Wang Chong in the Han Dynasty wrote "On Heng and Difficult Years" for this purpose. He recounted: "The Migration Law says: 'Migrating to Tai Sui is fierce, and negative Tai Sui is also fierce. ''Arrive at the Tai Sui name is said to be under the year, and the name of the negative Tai Sui is said to be broken, so they are all fierce. If Tai Sui is in Jiazi, no one in the world is allowed to migrate north and south, and everyone avoids marrying at home; It moves east and west, if it moves to the four dimensions, it is auspicious for those who are similar. Who? It does not touch with Tai Sui, nor does it resist the rush of Tai Sui. ”
When I talked to my grandfather about "Tai Sui", my grandfather said that he was not afraid of Tai Sui.
I was surprised, and there are people who are not afraid of Tai Sui?
Grandpa nodded yes.
When Grandpa married Grandma, Grandpa decided to add two rooms next to the original house. Momentarily negligent, grandpa actually forgot the taboo of bumping into Tai Sui, he was so busy with his grandfather's wedding that he didn't calculate it in advance.
When digging the foundation, sure enough, a long-term builder dug up a large piece of meat.
The long-term worker who built the house was so frightened that he said to his grandfather, I don't dare to build this house, and I don't want the salary.
Grandpa's eyes widened and he shouted, why didn't you build it? My son is about to get married, and he won't build two more rooms, where will all the relatives and friends who come live here?
Beads of sweat the size of beans appeared on the face of the long worker, and he said, I can't control this, I can't put my life on the line for this little salary.
Grandpa is a well-known person within a hundred miles, and he is not afraid of people when he speaks. He said angrily, I want to build a house, I want to live, and I have to bear something. You will be paid ten times the wages.
Aren't you afraid of Tai Sui? The chief worker asked bitterly.
I'm afraid of Tai Sui? I'm not afraid of anything! Tai Sui is afraid that I am.
Grandpa said, took out the bullwhip and whipped a hundred times on the piece of meat, so that the white meat inside turned outward, and the whole piece of meat was swollen, twice as large as when it was first unearthed. Changgong was stunned. Grandpa is like this, what else is he afraid of. So the long-term workers continued to build the walls and tiles, mix the plaster and stir the mud.
Daddy picked up the rotten meat with a dustpan and poured it on the side of the road in front of Thrush Village.
And what about later? I hurriedly asked my grandfather.
Grandpa said, I, you, your mother, and your grandmother are all fine!
Then why are the people of those two families dead, but Grandpa is okay at all?
Grandpa said that later a monk came to the village to make a fortune and saw it thrown on the side of the road
Meat. The monk said something to the piece of meat that no one else could understand. When the monk was begging for rice at someone else's house, someone asked the monk what he had said to the piece of meat.
yes, what did you say? I can't wait.
The monk asked for meat, Brother Tai Sui, Brother Tai Sui, only everyone is afraid of you, not you are afraid of others. Why hast thou been beaten and not avenged? That piece of meat said, the person who beat me is hard, and when he is vicious, he will turn auspicious, and when he encounters danger, he has his own nobles to help him, what can I do.
Grandpa has been red all his life, energetic, and walks loudly, from birth to death, he has never had a high fever or sneezed. A lifetime of smooth and smooth life, there is really nothing in the way.
The small slope in front of Mr. Quan aroused so many thoughts in me that I almost forgot the story. Okay, now back to the point.
When we walked up the slope in front of the teacher's house, we were all stunned by the situation in front of us!
