Have you ever heard of "The Book of Lu Ban" and the Art of Wearing Victory?
Zhou An never thought that an old house that had been abandoned for ten years would become an abyss that swallowed his father.
The green bricks are mottled and the pomegranates are withered. During the restoration of the main room, a wooden wedge wrapped with dark red blood lines and embedded deeply in the wall bone came to light. My father, who had always been calm, was shattered at that moment.
"The art of aversion to victory", a vicious curse that only existed among carpenters and passed down word of mouth, turned out to be the source of family tragedy.
In order to save his father, Zhou An drove wildly to find his uncle, the only one who knew how.
Behind him is his father, who is facing unknown dangers alone. In front of you is a lost road leading to a mysterious past.
When his uncle revealed the truth about "the evil that penetrates the heart, locks the soul and destroys the family", Zhou An understood that what he wanted to repair was not the old house, but a family destiny that had long been broken and started to bleed.
Is this the same world view as "The Art of Weary Victory" as the author said? Isn't it also related to Xu Dong and Xiaotian?
It looks good but has no ending. How did Amu get injured? Has Blackfoot been caught behind the pole? Who is the person who framed the protagonist's family? None of this was disclosed.
In traditional Chinese building customs, the beam-raising ceremony is a key step in building a house. Carpenters chant auspicious words loudly when raising the beams, which is also called Liang Shangwen.
For example, the Shangliang text in the northern region is:
The beam is like a dragon, winding upward. It doesn't move when it's in the air, waiting for its owner to hang red. Hanging red to the head of Kowloon, princes and nobles have emerged from generation to generation.
The Jiangnan area is:
Stepping up the stairs with your feet, picking fairy peaches from the fairy tree with your hands. Thousands of fairy peaches were collected, and the master's children and grandchildren wore golden hats.
The Fujian and Guangdong regions have a hint of dialect:
If the head of the beam is high, heroes will come from generation to generation; if the tail of the beam is low, every household will have money and rice. The sky above the beam will be full of stars, and the sky below will be peaceful.
Wait wait wait...
