How to read Zi Chou Yin Mao Tatsumi Haiwu: Zi (zǐ), Chou (chǐu), Yin (yín), Mao (m ǐ o), Chen (chén), Si () Wu () Wei (i). The eight characters are composed of 22 elements, among which the ugly Mao Yinchen is 12 at noon in Xu Hai, Shen You.
What does Yin Mao, the ugly son, mean by Tatsumi's cover letter this afternoon? Compared with the words used by modern people, the words used by the ancients are really concise.

At noon in Tatsumi, the ugly son Yin Mao announced that the sea was at twelve o'clock. In ancient times, there were two kinds of timing tools, one was a sundial and the other was a leak. The sundial is timed according to the movement of the shadow, which corresponds to the scale on the surface of the sundial. Needless to say, you should have seen the sundial in the Forbidden City and the Observatory in Beijing. Water leakage is timed by dripping water, which is made up of four copper pots filled with water, which are stacked on top of each other. There are holes in the bottom of the first three, and an arrow-shaped buoy is vertically placed on the bottom one. The water level rises with the drop of water, and the pot body has scale timing. The original day and night was divided into 100 minutes, but it was changed to 96, 108 and 120 minutes successively because it could not be divisible with twelve o'clock, and it was officially set as 96 minutes in Qing Dynasty. In this way, one hour is equal to eight quarters. It is divided into three points in an instant and 24 points in a day and night, which is opposite to 24 solar terms. Note that this minute is not the current minute, but a word. Between two moments, two strange symbols are engraved, so it is called "word". The word is divided by lines as thin as wheat awn, which is called "two"; The word "two" consists of "he" and "Shao", where he refers to wheat and Shao refers to tiny awns. You can't row below seconds, you can only say "as thin as spider silk", which is called "suddenly"; For example, the word "suddenly" suddenly refers to a very short time, but it refers to change, which means change in a very short time.
The word "Zi" is engraved below. As for Zi, it is still used in Cantonese in Guangdong and Guangxi, such as "3: 10 pm", which means "15: 50". According to the analysis of linguists, there are a lot of "ancient Chinese" in Cantonese. The reason is that the Han people in the ancient Central Plains lived in Lingnan, separated from the Central Plains people for a long time, and their languages did not "keep pace with the times" with those who stayed in the Central Plains. The division under the word "zi" is unknown. According to Sui Shu's law, second is the ancient unit of time, and below second is "sudden"; How to convert, the book is unclear, only saying: "'two' is as fine as a mountain; "Suddenly" is like the best spider silk. "
In ancient times, time (big time) was not counted by 1234, but marked by ugly children and animals such as rats, cows, tigers and rabbits, which was easy to remember. The specific division is as follows: from eleven o'clock to one o'clock, twelve o'clock is the punctuality; Ugly (cattle) from one to three, with two points as the punctuality; Yin (tiger) is from three o'clock to five o'clock, with four o'clock as the punctuality; Mao (rabbit) is from five to seven, with six o'clock as the punctuality; Chen (Dragon) is from 7: 00 to 9: 00, with 8: 00 as the punctuality; It's 9 o'clock to 1 1, and 10 is the punctuality; At noon (horse), it is eleven o'clock to one o'clock, with twelve o'clock as the punctuality; When you are not (sheep), it is 1 until 3 o'clock, with 2 o'clock as the punctuality; When applying for (monkey), it is from three o'clock to five o'clock, with four o'clock as the punctuality; You (chicken) are from five to seven, with six o'clock as the punctuality; From 7: 00 to 9: 00, 8: 00 is the punctuality; Shanghai is now 9: 00 to 1 1 point (pig), and 10 is the punctuality.
The ancients said that time and day are different, saying "bell" during the day and "more" or "drum" at night. There is also the saying "the morning bell and the evening drum". In ancient times, there were many bell and drum towers in towns. Ring the bell in the morning (7 o'clock today), so say "what time" during the day; At dusk (today 19), drums are ringing, so the night is also called a few drum days. It is more useful to say time at night, because the night watchman beats the banger while patrolling and tells the time by counting. The whole night is divided into five classes, and the third class is midnight, so it is also called "midnight".
The unit of measurement below hours is "hours". One hour is divided into eight hours, and each hour is equal to fifteen minutes now. There is a saying in the old novel called "chop at noon three times", that is, chop at noon three times (fifteen minutes away from noon), when the yang is flourishing and the yin disappears instantly. This heinous crime should be "not even allowed to do ghosts" to show severe punishment.
Now the daily day and night is 24 hours, while in ancient times it was 12 hours. When western mechanical clocks and watches were introduced into China, people called the time points of China and the West "Da Shi" and "Shi Shi" respectively. With the popularity of clocks and watches, people forget "Da Shi", and "Shi" is still in use today.
Note in Qin 12 paragraph: The twelve earthly branches: Yin, Mao, Chen, Si, Wu, Wei, Shen, You, Xu, Hai, Zi and Chou. Noon means from eleven to thirteen, and an hour is divided into eight quarters, counting from eleven and once every fifteen minutes. Eleven o'clock is noon, eleven fifteen is a quarter of noon, forty-five is a quarter of noon, twelve o'clock is noon, and one eighth is the beginning of the next hour.
Yin and Yang experts say that Yang is the most abundant, which is different from modern astronomy. Not at noon, but at three o'clock. In ancient times, beheading was also carried out in different periods, which is why beheading is important. Generally, beheading is to operate at noon and let it have a ghost to do; Repeater or heinous criminals must choose the operation at 3: 30 noon, and don't let it be a ghost. The meridian gate of the imperial city is also the most prosperous, regardless of time, so the emperor ordered the people who started the meridian gate to behead, and no ghosts did it.
It is worth mentioning that China's land area is too large, and there are some differences in different regions.
The ugly meridian Shen Youhai corresponds to December: Yin 1 Moon Tiger, Mao February Rabbit, Chen Sanyuelong, Si April Snake, Wu Mayma, Wei Liuyue Sheep, Shen July Monkey, You August Chicken, September Dog, Hai1October Pig, Zi 65433. As we all know, twelve hours have their corresponding zodiac signs, but do you know? In fact, twelve months of each year also have their own "Zodiac". In the first month of the lunar calendar, winter is not over yet, and there are few animals coming in and out of the bare Shan Ye, so the hungry tigers come out from the mountains to look for food. The roar of the tiger spread all over the fields, giving people a deep impression, so this month was designated as the "Year of the Tiger". In February of the lunar calendar, spring blossoms, sunny grass drills out of the ground, and rabbits begin to be active. People also designated this month as "Rabbit Month". In this regard, the lunar calendar is foggy in March, and dragons suddenly appear. It's warm in April of the lunar calendar, and the snake comes out of the hole. In May of the lunar calendar, the grass grows and the warblers fly, making people happy. In June of the lunar calendar, the vegetation is lush and the sheep are everywhere. In July of the lunar calendar, fruits are ripe and monkeys are delicious. Mid-Autumn Festival in August of the lunar calendar, killing chickens and drinking. Harvest in September and autumn of the lunar calendar. The lunar calendar is cool in October and autumn, and the fat pigs are full of circles. It snows in November of the lunar calendar, and there are many mice at home. In December of the lunar calendar, the north wind blows and the old cow returns to the shed.
At noon, Ugly Yin Mao and Tatsumi applied to the Central Committee of the Sea: Woods Chong, Ugly Buchong, Shen Yinchong, You Mao Chong, Chen Xuchong and Hai Si Chong. The earth branches collide with each other, which is an azimuth hedge. Zishui is in the north, noon fire is in the south, Ugly Yin lives in the northeast, not in the southwest, Mao lives in the east, especially in the west, in the southeast, and Xu Hai lives in the northwest.
At noon, ugly Mao Yinchen went to Xu Hai, Shen You.
