Funeral procession introduction

There are people leading the way at the front of the funeral procession. Along the way, they put up "road flags" - small triangular flags made of colorful or white paper to guide the soul of the deceased; they also scatter paper money to guide the way, to show that they have bribed the ghosts along the way. Next come the ceremonial guards, various paper-made items (called "paper writings" in Xing County area), coarse and fine music bands, soul-guiding banners carried by nephews or grandsons, people carrying benches, and then the filial sons pulling the ropes and holding the mourning sticks, followed by the coffin, and behind the coffin are the female relatives sitting in carriages and sedan chairs, and relatives and friends on foot.
When the funeral procession reaches a crowded place or a major intersection, the coffin will stop for a roadside sacrifice and the drums and music will also stop playing. In ancient times, sacrifices were usually offered by relatives, friends and neighbors. Later, most sacrifices were offered by the bereaved family themselves. The purpose was simply to show that the funeral was grand and solemn.
After arriving outside the village, the relatives and friends who had come to attend the funeral stopped and the deceased's son came to express his gratitude. Then the coffin cover is removed and the ceremonial procession stops, with only family members and close relatives carrying paper offerings and sacrificial offerings along with the coffin to the cemetery. When the time comes, the burial will take place immediately. After the coffin is placed in the tomb, in the area of ​​Qi County, Jinzhong, a fortune teller will set up a compass to determine the direction, moving it left and right until he thinks it is right. The general direction is southeast - northwest (Qian - Xun positions), and there is a saying in the locals that "the Purple Gold Mountain is on the head and the Yanmen Pass is under the feet". In places like Qin County in southeastern Shanxi, a Yin-Yang master would also place talismans, such as peach bows, willow arrows, mulberry branches, cotton, and grains.
