Walking turtles are called "killing evil turtles" in Feng Shui. How can turtles kill evil? Nbspnbspnbspnbsp It turns out that the tortoise has turtle lines on its back. There are three squares in the center of the turtle pattern, representing the talents of heaven and earth, and there are 24 squares next to it, representing the twenty-four mountains, and 10 represents the ten-day stem.

Nbsp In ancient legends, myths and fables in China, the four spirits of Kirin, Phoenix and Dragon and Tortoise are auspicious animals, and they are all symbols of good luck and longevity. But the first three gods are fictional totems, which do not exist in the real environment. In reality, only turtles exist.

Feng Shui also believes that turtles are animals that can bring good luck and longevity to people. It is said that turtles can block town houses and bring wealth to people. Here are some quotations about the relationship between turtles and geomantic omen: "From the perspective of geomantic omen, the protrusion of turtle shell is radian, like a mirror, so turtle shell can be used to melt evil spirits." "Although the tortoise moves slowly and seems to have no self-defense ability, it knows how to bear the burden of humiliation. When in danger, it will shrink its head, tail and limbs into thick turtle shells, leaving even the fiercest enemies helpless and finally tide over the difficulties. Therefore, when encountering some very special and dangerous punishments, instead of using lions to fight hard, it is better to use turtles to resolve them. It is more appropriate to combine rigidity and softness. " ……nbsp; Although these are popular sayings, since there are still many unknown things in the world, we'd better take them seriously first.
