Banyan trees are intolerant.
Source: Since Southern Metropolis Daily is qualified to be a wishing tree, banyan trees should always bring good luck to people, which is proved by books. Qu Dajun said that Cantonese people often plant banyan trees as feng shui trees. "Banyan trees will flourish in many parts of the market." However, I heard the opposite statement. One of my father-in-law's colleagues was always troubled for some time. When my father-in-law saw a pot of banyan bonsai on her desk in the office, he couldn't help reminding her: "Haven't you heard of' banyan trees don't allow people'?" In Guangdong and Guangxi, there is indeed a saying in Feng Shui that "banyan trees can't tolerate people". Some people say that it is because the roots of banyan trees are lush and the water absorption capacity is too strong, so there are banyan trees where well water can't be reached. Others say that this is aimed at home, and it is not suitable to put banyan bonsai indoors, which is particularly harmful to young people. The history is unknown, so we have to speculate without authorization. I think, first of all, the strong vitality of banyan trees is frightening. Zhou Qufei said in A Generation Beyond the Ridge that banyan trees "bear fruit at four seasons", "Birds embrace their children and parasitize other trees, so they can flourish", and their air roots hang down to the ground, "full of rustic, long-term being caught by them, or being wrapped up"-they are extremely easy to survive, absorb rustic, and can grow longer than their owners or even be wrapped up. This is a human nightmare. They never like being out of their control. This is implied in the earliest flora "Southern Vegetation". Han Ji said that once the branches of banyan trees touch other trees next to them, they are "tied together", which is more common in the south, and it is not called "Ruimu". Lianlizhi was originally Jirui's signboard, but the local people expressed caution and suspicion. Isn't that convincing enough? Secondly, maybe it's just a word game played by people, which is explained for no reason according to the pronunciation of the word "Rong". If "banyan tree" directly means "tolerance", it would be too creative, so they chose the opposite meaning. In some places, if the age mantissa of a family member is nine, planting leeks will bring bad luck to this member. This is called "planting leeks without leaving nine". These two frightening proverbs have the same structure, and I think they also have the same origin. In any case, "the banyan tree can't tolerate people" has brought a hidden edge to this useless plant. It may not be as willing to be silent and peaceful as it seems. This sentence reminds us that any plant has its own personality, and we can never fully understand them.
