There is such an ancient and mysterious industry among the people in our country, but we can judge people's good or bad by three incense sticks. Many people go to them to see things that can't be solved at home. Generally, when someone asks a question, they will light three incense sticks, and then judge whether things are good or bad from the speed of burning incense, the shape and arrangement of ashes.
This kind of occupation is what people often say about watching incense, also called top incense. One day, a bully in Linxiang found the old man. After the old man lit three incense sticks, he saw that one of them burned very fast, and soon it was lower than the other two incense sticks, accompanied by bursts of black smoke, and soon it went out by itself.
The old man looked at the unburned incense and couldn't help looking gloomy. He said nothing to the bully, but the old man said nothing. In a rage, the bully knocked over the incense burner and kicked his feet before leaving, calling the old man a liar and threatening to drive her out of the village.
After the bully left, the villagers advised the old man to show him and not to provoke the local strongmen.
As a result, the old man only said: the incense is long and short, and it has not been burned. I'm just a living person, not a dead person.
The old man stopped talking when he finished speaking. The villagers thought it was the angry words of the old man and went home to comfort him. As a result, the bully died in the pond outside the village within a few days.
