There are many particulars about the location of rural houses, which is the experience of our ancestors for generations, not feudal superstition.
When building a house in the countryside, the gate cannot be facing the road, and it cannot be facing the gable or head of other people's houses; The road in front of the door cannot be a reverse bow; The river or pond in front of the door cannot be a reverse bow and so on. People should find a special feng shui master to take a look to avoid the above phenomenon.
The villagers call this thing "earth arrow". People who live in houses with earthen arrows are prone to strange things such as **, and the locals call it "earth arrows hurt people". This is also the reason why it is common to see mirrors hanging on village gates, and screens are set up inside the doors, which are used to block earth arrows and avoid evil spirits and keep peace.
This year, I went to my friend's hometown to play. People pointed to the old houses of the two families, and talked about the harm of the arrows, and the hatred caused by the arrows.
Liu Sheng's family built a house, located in front of the second sister-in-law's house in the family, with a small plot of land in between. When digging the foundation, the gable is facing the door of the second sister-in-law's house. It is also a three-room entrance, which also means that the gable or head of the second sister-in-law's house is also facing the door of Liu Sheng's house, which is an arrow to each other, which is not good for both families.
For this reason, Liu Sheng's second sister-in-law stepped forward to block it, hoping that the two houses would close or turn an angle so as not to hurt each other.
Liu Sheng participated in the rebels at that time, and later became an employee of the grain station because of the movement, and he was a person who was not afraid of heaven and earth. His second sister-in-law and the villagers did not listen to the persuasion at all, thinking that it was feudal superstition. and thinks that he has rectified his second sister-in-law's family during the movement, and the second sister-in-law used this as an excuse to interfere with the construction of the house. The two quarreled a few times, but the fundamental problem was still not solved.
After Liu Sheng built the house according to his own plan, the two families naturally formed a trend of opposing each other.
The second brother of the clan went down the ditch to cut wood and fell off the cliff and was injured; Not long after, the son of the second sister-in-law rode a bicycle to school, and his leg fell and broke his leg. The second sister-in-law was so angry that she scolded Liu Sheng in the village.
Liu Sheng retorted that this was the retribution suffered by the second sister-in-law's family for hindering his family from building a house and not doing a good job, how could his family be good.
The second sister-in-law's family looked for someone to exorcise evil spirits, hung a mirror on the door, and set up a big stone in the open space in front of the door, on which was written "Taishan stone dare to be". After a few years, the wall was built with dry bricks. The family has just stopped, but the little things are still going on.
A few years later, Liu Sheng's family moved into a new house, and before they were happy for a few days, something began to happen at home.
First of all, the state cleaned up three types of people, and Liu Sheng changed from a red man to a black back at the grain station. There was a lot of condemnation of his fanatical behavior, and there was no hope of turning into a full-time worker. Within a few years, the grain station cleaned up temporary workers and was driven back to the countryside.
An even greater tragedy happened to Liu Sheng's family, which was the tragic death of the eldest son.
Liu Sheng's eldest son has been a soldier in the army for many years and has become a volunteer. Because it is a technical service, it was selected by a military industrial unit when it was transferred. While leaving the unit and going to the locality, waiting for the unified resettlement procedures, he traveled to the hometown of a comrade-in-arms in another province. On the way back, he went to a natural undeveloped scenic area for mountaineering expedition and fell into the valley and died.
When people were envious of Liu Sheng's eldest son who was assigned to a good unit, before he could report to the unit, he got the bad news that he had fallen from the mountain and died.
Liu Sheng's daughter-in-law couldn't accept the reality of such a huge gap, and she suddenly became crazy from joy and sorrow. People suggested that Liu Sheng find a capable person to clean up the house and drive away evil spirits.
Liu Sheng thought that the people in the village were laughing at him and humiliating him, and resolutely did not believe in these feudal superstitions. He believes that doing so is tantamount to slapping him in the face of taking the lead in breaking the four old "smashing and robbing" back then, affecting his image.
Liu Sheng's daughter-in-law smashed the mirror on the door of the second sister-in-law's house, thinking that the second sister-in-law was looking for a capable person to blame her family. For this reason, the two families fought several times and became mortal enemies.
The second sister-in-law's family was humiliated, and they also thought that the house was difficult to prevent, so they struggled for several years to build a new homestead and moved away. The family lived a normal life and abandoned the old house.
A few years later, Liu Sheng's second son went out to work and disappeared. He hasn't heard back for years. Liu Sheng's life is not as good as day by day, and it has gone downhill.
Liu Sheng had a bad influence in the village because he had rectified people and rebelled. Strange things happen at home, but they don't listen to persuasion, and no one pays attention to them. When he was cleaning the debris in the upper room, he fell and died.
The people in the village were also afraid when they saw that Liu Sheng did not listen to persuasion and kept doing evil things. A road was built in the open space between the two houses. It is believed that the construction of a road in two rows of rooms is like a mountain next to each other, as a way to defuse the damage of earth arrows.
After Liu Sheng's third son built a road in the village, he sold the house to a family working outside the village. Because the family has an urban hukou, they can't apply for Zhuangji in the village, so they can only buy other people's old houses, which is really helpless.
The person who bought Liu Sheng's house and my friend were small, and when they chatted with us, they talked about these things. Since I bought this house, I haven't lived in it for more than ten years. Old-fashioned buildings are not easy to demolish, and they are not as good as earthen houses. Now I also want to remove the heavy cover, but I don't know how to avoid these adverse risks, so I am really in a dilemma.
We looked at the place live. The formation of earth arrows could have been avoided back then, and the key was that Liu Sheng didn't want to be in trouble. If he and his second sister-in-law's house are closed, Liu Sheng will have to raise half of the mound; If you make a mistake in the whole room, you have to pad the soil slope.
At that time, Liu Sheng believed that there was no need to raise soil or lay soil for the existing land, and it would cost more money, so he did things that harmed others and did not benefit himself. With a fluke mentality, he never escaped punishment and left a lot of trouble for future generations.
From this, we know how harmful earth arrows are.
Let's just say that the house on the street road in the county seat is cheap, it is the legendary earth arrow.
A friend of mine bought a single courtyard in the county seat just across the road. When the child was about to graduate from college, there was an accident**. In the end, the price was reduced to sell the single courtyard, and I bought a single courtyard again in a remote alley. We didn't understand it at the time, but now we understand it.
Native arrows exist in both rural and urban areas. The ancestors of the countryside have lived together for generations, and everyone can clearly explain what happened. It is also more difficult for rural houses to change hands, and the city is highly motivated, and there are few people who interact with people, and few people say these strange things.
What people call earth arrows belongs to the category of Feng Shui, which is also a science, which is now planning.
Buying a house is a major event in a person's life, and it is still necessary to listen to people's suggestions and opinions. Plan well and don't cause unnecessary consequences because of trouble.
