"More dragons depend, less dragons drown", which means that the fewer dragons there are, the more water there is; The more dragons, the less water. In which year did several dragons control the water, it was calculated according to the "Sixty Jiazi Method".
Second, a few cows are plowing the land.
There is a saying in the old calendar that several cows plow the fields. The days in the old calendar are recorded by cadres and branches, and every day has a representative of cadres and branches, so there is an ugly day every twelve days. From the first day of the first month to the first day of the first month, as soon as the word "ugly" is put on, it is necessary to plow the fields for several cows.
Three, several people share the cake.
In an almanac with a year and date, there is a day C every ten days. From the first day of the first month, when the word "C" is placed on it, it will be determined that several people will share the cake (the cake is homophonic with C).
Four or a few days.
It is also said that the first day of the first month begins with the first day of the first month, and the word "Xin" is put on the table, which is set as a few days.
Extended data
According to China folklore, the dragon is the god who manages the rain, and good weather can be achieved by using the five dragons to control the water, because there are dragons in the southeast and northwest, and each has its own duties. When the dragon disappeared, it flooded that year; If there are too many dragons, there will be a drought that year.
The reason is that the dragon god who manages the rain is not so afraid of not being able to manage it, so he is busy scattering rain everywhere and even flooding it; There are many dragon gods who take care of the rain, just like "three monks have no water to eat" or even a drought. As for the degree of waterlogging, it depends on how several dragons control water. The fewer dragons there are, the more serious the waterlogging is. The drought degree is the same.
Niu Gengdi is different, the less the better! At that time, it was best to have only one Niu Gengdi. That's because the weather is good, there is no drought or waterlogging and the land is soft. Only one cow can plow Kyushu according to the season! If there is drought or waterlogging, many cows need to plow at the same time, so as not to miss the farming season, and farmers need to work harder to harvest.
So how do you know how many dragons will control water and how many Niu Gengdi will control water this year? I'm telling you, it's actually very simple. It depends on the date when Chen (dragon) ugly (cow) first appeared in the first month of the lunar calendar. For example, the first "Chen" appeared on the eleventh day of the first month of 2006, and the water was controlled in the eleventh year of 2006; The first gaffes appeared on the eighth day of the first month in 2006, so this year is the eighth Niu Gengdi.
