A feng shui master never selects a lair of an evil dragon. A midwife must wash her hands in rooster’s blood. There are three hundred and sixty trades in the world, and every one has its rules. Are these ancient, mysterious rules really nothing more than empty formalities? If I told you that some rules must never be broken, because breaking them means death, would you believe me? 8.3kReads8.0Score1.2kShelves

   The butcher does not kill pigs with five fingers. The people who guard the village do not guard the village with the temple. Feng shui masters do not point to the evil dragon treasure land. The hands of the midwife must be washed with the blood of the cock. There are three hundred and sixty lines in the world, and there are rules for doing so. Are these ancient and mysterious rules really just formalities? If I told you that there are some rules that cannot be broken and someone will die if you break them, would you believe it?
