    ?

    After lunch, I finally received a call. It was a call from a leader who took good care of me. He said that he had already communicated with the top leader, and colleagues from my unit will come to pay homage tomorrow morning.  Alas, it seems that the supreme leader is really busy!  Perhaps, if it weren't for the reminder from the leader who took care of me, then maybe the top leader would have forgotten to contact the relevant people to pay homage to my house.

    Although it is still a bit embarrassing, my answer is no longer as uncertain as it was in the morning.  "Leaders and colleagues from my unit, come over tomorrow morning!" I always said the same when someone asked me about it.

    In our place, the funeral of the deceased depends on the date and time, and those who specialize in the date and time are called onmyoji.  Onmyojis specialize in the study of yin and yang and the five elements, and are good at investigating Fengshui, so many people have evolved into Fengshui masters who specialize in investigating Fengshui for others.  The current Feng Shui master is a very popular profession.  The reason why it is popular is inseparable from the rapid economic development after my country's reform and opening up.

    We have a saying here, "It is better to believe what is there than to believe what is not".  Officials, whether they want to keep their status or continue to be promoted, all expect to use the power of Feng Shui.  They may not necessarily fully believe in the theory of Feng Shui, but if they only pay a price of thousands or tens of thousands, they may benefit for life. Out of this consideration, many people will choose to give it a try.  Of course, there are also very crazy ones, that is, guilty consciences who give and accept bribes.  It is precisely because of the wrong way that they will be in fear all day long.  In order not to let things happen, in order to continue to be successful, in order to eliminate their inner worries, these people will desperately seek help from Feng Shui masters.  These people are definitely the favorite of Feng Shui masters, because these people are the absolute gods of wealth for Feng Shui masters.  The madness of these people is more due to guilty conscience, and more is to find a spiritual comfort.  However, whether it can really play a role, maybe only he can know.

    For those who are in business, nine out of ten families will enshrine the God of Wealth.  I don't know if they really believe it, but they must be devout in their hearts at the moment they burn incense for the God of Wealth.  People who are in business all hope to be blessed by the God of Wealth, so that they will have a lot of money from then on.  If the God of Wealth is really so miraculous, then everyone just needs to bow down to the God of Wealth devoutly, so why bother scrambling in the mall all day long?  Among them, real estate developers rely the most on Feng Shui masters.  Whenever the construction site starts, real estate developers will definitely ask Feng Shui masters to choose auspicious days for them.  I've heard that some real estate developers even charter flights to pick up Feng Shui masters.  From this, it is not difficult to see that these Fengshui masters are worth a lot.  Of course, the cost of hiring a Feng Shui master is insignificant compared to the profit gained after the development of the entire real estate.

    It is precisely because of the needs of officials and businessmen, especially those corrupt and wealthy real estate developers, that the living space of Feng Shui masters is getting bigger and bigger.  With the further development of the economy, perhaps it will be popular to ask Feng Shui masters to investigate Feng Shui.  I don't know, is this a tragedy for society?

    Of course, the onmyoji I am talking about here is not a feng shui master who specializes in dealing with the upper class, but a native rural professional who specializes in yin and yang.  The so-called specialization in yin and yang refers to those who specialize in the study of yin and yang Fengshui, especially good at things in the underworld.  What exactly to do, I am not very clear.  But I can give an example of what I have seen and heard.

    As mentioned earlier, a female department-level cadre in our unit was accidentally hit by a motorcycle while walking on the side of the road on her way to work in the morning.  What is even more strange is that when she fell to the ground, the back of her head was resting on the bump on the side of the road.  Afterwards, my colleague passed away very strangely because the rescue failed for a few days.  It was precisely because of the strange incident that the family asked the local onmyoji to inquire about the situation.  Through a very special method, after the onmyoji learned the relevant information from the underworld, he told the family of the colleague that the ancestors of the colleague who passed away had already predicted that she would have such a catastrophe in the near future.  The ancestors wanted to do something for her so as to eliminate the disaster, but because of the lack of funds (Mingbi), they could only procrastinate. Never thought that she would be robbed so soon.  This matter has been said with a nose and an eye.  Chuan Onmyoji clearly stated that the reason why the ancestors of that colleague had no funds was entirely because during the holidays, the family of female department-level cadres and colleagues never burned paper money.  The most strange thing is that my colleague is indeed a staunch atheist, and he never worships ancestors (burning paper money during festivals).  Of course, it doesn't rule out that the onmyoji specifically inquired about the situation of his colleague's family beforehand.  But he wasn't the only local onmyoji, and that person didn't know beforehand that his colleague's family would definitely look for him.

    Anyway, it¡¯s still the same saying, ¡°It¡¯s better to believe something than nothing¡±, so here, whenever a relative passes away, we will definitely ask an onmyoji to help calculate it.room.  This time includes the time of cremation, the time of laying the ashes (putting the ashes into the coffin), the time of nailing the coffin with a lid (nailing the lid of the coffin with special nails), and the time of burial.  The calculation here can only be carried out based on the time of the deceased's death and the horoscope of the deceased's birthday.  At the same time, according to the zodiac of the deceased, it will also be calculated at what age the zodiac must be avoided when the nail is ringing.  This involves the knowledge of zodiac signs.  Of course, filial sons have no taboos, that is to say, even if filial sons belong to the zodiac sign of avoidance, there is no need to avoid them when the nail is ringing.

    After the cousin asked the onmyoji to choose the time, he knew that there were still several days before the burial. During these few days, no one would guarantee that it would be sunny.  Besides, there will be dew at night, so you can¡¯t let your relatives and friends eat or talk in the open air (before my father¡¯s funeral, except for the vigil, many people would come to my house to play every night, of course, they usually around ten o¡¯clock  will leave).  So my cousin contacted decisively and asked professionals to set up a large canopy in front of my house that afternoon.  Under the canopy, it can accommodate hundreds of people for dinner at the same time.

    At this time, I had to think of my cousin again.  If it hadn't been for my cousin to help me, my family must have been a mess these two days.  It is precisely because of the help of my cousin that everything in the house can still be in order when I am only responsible for receiving the mourners.  Today, my cousin took care of all the things like asking the onmyoji to check the time, setting up the canopy, borrowing tables and chairs, preparing dishes and so on.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
