Come to Shuimo.com’s special topic on exorcism and luck change to learn more relevant knowledge!Is it complicated to make the peach wood stick for warding off evil spirits?Peach wood sticks need to be made in a crafting bar or workbench. Two any peach wood boards can be crafted into four peach wood sticks, and two peach bamboos can be crafted into one peach wood stick.Note: 1. When choosing peach branches, make sure to choose the sunny side of the peach branch (the sunny side refers to the side of the tree that is exposed to sunlight). 2. During the production process, the sharp corners must be sharpened in the same direction (with the branch tip as the sharp end), and not in reverse. 3. After the production is completed, it must be wiped with fragrant oil to have the effect of exorcising evil spirits, eliminating evil and improving luck, which is also called consecration. Are peach wood sticks and peach wood swords the same?They are different, but both are useful tools for exorcising ghosts."Book of the Later Han Dynasty - Records of Rites" states: "After all officials and government offices have used wooden-faced beasts as Nuo masters, peach stalks, yew trees, and reeds are set up. After that, the officials who serve on the throne are dismissed, and reed halberds and peach sticks are given to dukes, ministers, generals, special marquises, and princes." "Guiyi Leigao": "During the Kaiyuan period of the Tang Dynasty, Li Shi had a fox story. He taught people to use peach branches to lead eastward. This was because Taodu Mountain, located in the southeast, was also called Dusuo Mountain. It was recorded that Zhang Bi was a ghost, so he held a peach stick and cursed." Not only peach wood sticks, but also peach wood spears, peach wood bows and arrows, peach wood hammers (mallets worn by the people to drive away ghosts), peach wood whips (whips for beating the gods), peach wood brooms (for sweeping away bad luck) and other peach wood weapons and tools for driving away ghosts can be found everywhere in the records of driving away ghosts and strange things. Because the concept of exorcism lies in the peach wood, not in the shape of the object, any utensil made of peach wood can basically be considered a magical tool for exorcising ghosts. Legend of the Peach Wood Stick: Hou Yi Shooting the SunAccording to legend, Houyi was killed by a peach wood stick and was named Zongbu God after his death. This god often appeared under a peach tree leading a tiger. Every time he passed a ghost, Zongbu God would go forward to verify it. Therefore, there was a saying that peach wood could drive away evil ghosts.But later, some people proposed that the use of peach wood to ward off evil spirits originated from the story of Kuafu chasing the sun. Some people said that Kuafu just happened to hold a stick made of peach wood when he chased the sun. After his death, the stick in his hand turned into a peach forest, so that people in later generations who chased the sun like him could eat delicious peaches. Since Kuafu died by chasing the sun, he is the symbol of the sun, which is why there is a saying that peach wood can ward off evil spirits. |
