Mondo Culture Updated on 2024-02-29

Lu Ban occupies an important place in the history of our country, not only because he has excellent carpentry skills, but also because he has a very high creative ability in primitive technology, and he is very accomplished

For example, "Luban lock" and "saw" were all invented and created by Lu Ban, and Lu Ban wrote a book about his achievements in carpentry, including his understanding of carpentry and production.

However, this book eventually became a ** book with the death of his wife, so what is the reason why this book became taboo? And what is the first sentence about the opening of the book?

The pre-Qin period was a first-class period, also known as the period of a hundred schools of thought, with many sects and talents, not only Confucius, but also Luban.

There are ideas and plans for the future national society, as well as innovations in architecture, and the emergence of Luban laid the cornerstone for the construction industry in later generations.

Lu Ban was born in a family of craftsmen, his ancestors were all craftsmen, and his father was also a well-known skilled craftsman in the local area, so living in this environment, Lu Ban was also very interested in craftsmen.

And since he was a child, he has been engaged in construction work with his family, and as he grew older, Lu Ban gradually mastered many skills and accumulated a lot of experience in construction.

But later, there was a war, and Lu Ban also went from Lu to Chu to help Chu make weapons, and Lu Ban made a ladder for Chu to attack the city.

Siege equipment was provided for Chu to attack Song, and just when Chu was preparing to attack Song, Mozi hurriedly stood up to dissuade him, and in order to prevent this war, Lu Ban and Mozi conducted a drill.

In the end, Lu Ban was defeated by Mozi, which avoided a war, to some extent, the equipment used by Lu Ban was not limited to the equipment made by craftsmen at that time, many of the equipment were improved by Lu Ban in the war.

These instruments have become more and more elite after being improved, and it is precisely because of the character of Lu Ban that the Chu State has also shown its edge among the countries.

In addition to the ladders and improved weapons used in the siege, he also invented a tool, the "saw", which was used to saw wood, and it is said that Luban went to a high mountain to find wood.

With a stroke of his foot, his hand hurriedly grabbed a clump of grass on the side of the road, but he was cut by the grass, and blood flowed for a while, but Lu Ban was more curious about how his hand was cut by thatch.

So he grabbed the grass next to him and looked at it, only to find that the edges of the grass leaves were all sharp teeth, so he gently scratched the leaf on his hand, and it was actually scratched.

He wanted to make a tool with such jagged shapes, which would be much less laborious to sawn wood than to cut down trees with an axe.

When Lu Ban went back, he asked the iron striker to make such a row of jagged teeth on the iron sheet, and personally tried a handful, which was really more labor-saving than cutting the tree beforeThe newly invented tool is called a "saw".

Although we know that Lu Ban has high attainments in architecture and invention, we do not know that in addition to being a skilled craftsman, he also has a deep research in other aspects.

Lu Ban also has a deep study of Taoism and medical techniques, Lu Ban recorded all the things he learned in his life, and this book is called "Lu Ban Book".

The second is the record of the "Book of Luban", some people say that there are two volumes, and some people say that there are three volumes, but except for some medical usages, the rest of the spells do not indicate how to use them, and the targets are still spells and symbols.

So this book looks very mysterious, it is said that the upper volume of the Luban book also records some craftsman skills, which is quite normal here, and it is still helpful to life, which can be referred to.

But in the middle and second volumes, the contents of the book become more and more bizarre, for example, the middle volume records some methods of how to communicate with the underworld.

This is a kind of feudal superstition in modern times, but under the social conditions at that time, it was a kind of spiritual sustenance, and the content of the next volume is even more absurd.

Most of them are things that harm others and themselves, and they are generally framed by others and will be attacked at the same time, such as the "Iron Siege" and the "Lubricating Oil Order", which is a way to make people walk and wrestle, and they can't walk steadily.

At the same time, there is also the "Red Child" spell to stop bleeding, and the "bone-turning water" used to turn fish bones.

These are not necessarily a good thing when used on people, such as things like "bone water", which sounds very permeableIf someone learns this technique, killing a person can almost achieve the effect of destroying the corpse, there is no way to inquire about it, and it will even disturb the peace of the country to a large extent.

Moreover, people who study Lu Banshu also have requirements, generally they have to "lack one", and the spells in it only need to be practiced for forty-nine days to take effect.

This kind of quick method, the person who learns will also pay a great price, some of them are the luck of relatives, or their own disability as a condition of exchangeAnd the above spell is not to say that you can't do bad things, but as long as you learn this kind of spell, you will pay a terrible price for it, and it has nothing to do with evil magic.

In the early years, Lu Ban married a wife, and the relationship with his wife was very harmonious, his wife was proficient in music, and often played the piano for him.

But later, due to the war, the husband and wife were forced to separate, and Luban was trapped in the city to make weapons, thinking about his wife day and night, and made a spell wooden kite, which could travel thousands of miles a day and go home to visit his wife.

However, one day Luban's wife was very curious about this wooden kite, so she took advantage of Luban's absence to start the wooden kite, because Luban's wife was close to giving birth at that time, when the wooden kite flew with Luban's wife, Luban's wife was emotionally excited and faced with childbirth.

The blood caused the wooden kite to lose its spell and break the spell, causing Luban's wife to fall from a high altitude on the wooden kite and fell to her death.

But the main reason for its ban is because of the first sentence of the opening chapter, "Luban Book" is also called "Missing a Door", that is, learning Luban Book must be missing a door.

This door is no queen, so the first sentence of the opening chapter illustrates this point, if you want to learn this **, you must be the last. "If you want to learn this technique, you must be the last. ”

At that time,"There are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is great".Who dares to learn this statement, so many people are scared as soon as this statement comes out.

But the absence of a queen here is not that there are no descendants, but one of the widows, orphans, loneliness, and cripples, that is, life must be unsatisfactory, so it is called "missing a door".

Similarly, Lu Ban put a spell on this book, and he didn't want the world to learn this kind of ** and fall into the same situation as him, so this book is also listed as the most evil book, so it can only be regarded as ** to avoid its harm.

**Wanfan Incentive Plan ConclusionThe authenticity of the story of this book needs to be studied, but Lu Ban's achievements in architecture are admired by future generations, and the Luban Award is regarded as the highest award in the field of architecture in China, which is an affirmation of the architect and a commemoration of Lu Ban.
