Today, material life is very different from before. Most of us no longer worry about being hungry, but we already have food to eat, clothes to wear more comfortably than before. But, a lot of food, abundant food does not mean that you can eat comfortably. Eating the right food for the body’s needs is extremely important. An example of how eating can be related to each person’s life expectancy is recorded in history books, let’s refer to it. The following story about Zhuge Liang will help us understand why a person’s diet and activities are so related to his life expectancy, even outsiders can look at it and assess his health. a person’s health. At the time Three Kingdoms, Sima Yi heard about Zhuge Liang Consuming less than 3 liters of rice a day (in the old days – equivalent to about 0.5 kg), immediately confirmed that his life expectancy would not be long. According to historical records, Zhuge Liang was born in 181 and died in 234 (only 54 years old) who was a prime minister, public god of founding the country, politician, diplomat, military commander, official. educated, and also a famous technical inventor of the Shu Han Dynasty of the Three Kingdoms period. Eventually, he fell ill and died in the barracks. Image of Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi on film. Before that, Zhuge Liang launched the 5th Northern Punishment. After the Shu army came out of Ta Coc Dao, confronted the Wei army in the south of Weihe (the name of the river originates from Gansu province, flows through Shaanxi province. into the Yellow River, China), Zhuge Liang repeatedly sent envoys to challenge, sent letters to provoke, then also used women’s clothes to provoke Sima Yi, but Sima Yi was determined to avoid the battle. do not hit. Zhuge Liang had no choice but to confront Sima Yi in Wuzhangyuan and later unfortunately died of a serious illness. What is hidden behind Sima Yi’s decision to “not fight”? Why did Sima Yi not decide to fight? An extremely surprising answer was that in addition to the defensive strategy, Sima Yi knew that Zhuge Liang “destined will not be long” through a “questioning” of the messenger. When Zhuge Liang sent an emissary to the Wei camp to make an appointment to fight Sima Yi, Sima Yi asked the emissary about Zhuge Liang’s sleep, diet, and workload, all of which were irrelevant. to the military situation. The messenger simply thought that this question had nothing to reveal, nothing to hide, so he answered honestly: “ Zhuge Liang wakes up early and goes to bed late. In all cases with a penalty of 20 sticks or more, he himself censored and decided (meaning to do a lot of work, high pressure), eating and drinking less than 3 liters of rice. (i.e. dong/shang – the ancient unit of measure of food, equal to 1/10 of a quarter – the present equivalent of about 0.5 kg of rice). After Sima Yi heard information about Zhuge Liang’s lifestyle, eating habits, and sleeping hours, he felt secretly happy, so he told his subordinates: Zhuge Liang ate little (compared to the strength of his contemporaries), the work was complicated, stressful, and stressful, so his life expectancy would not be long, he would not live long. In the book Tan Thu – Tuyen De Ky and Bui Chu Tam Quoc Chi There is a clear record of the content of this question and answer story of Sima Yi. Liter is a unit of measurement of rice in the Han Dynasty, compared to Zhuge Liang eats 3 liters of rice a day, compared to modern times is not too little. But what about the people of the past? In the Han Dynasty, the average person’s daily amount of rice was 5 liters, and a warrior needed to eat 7 liters (equivalent to 1.2kg of rice) when fighting. According to the book “Song Shu” volume 19: Compared to the soldiers of that time, the average amount of rice was 7 liters, while Zhuge Liang ate less than 3 liters, less than half of the soldiers. Eating less, working a lot, high pressure, little sleep are one of the reasons why Zhuge Liang fell ill and died early at the age of 54. Therefore, a moderate lifestyle is extremely necessary, even if you work as a worker. what.

According to records, this is the settlement of the 27th descendant of Zhuge Liang. This village was also the largest residence of descendants of Gia Cat in the mid and late Yuan Dynasty.

Why is this Zhuge village said to be the first strange village in China? There are three reasons for this.

First, the vast majority of villagers are descendants of Zhuge Liang, a talented prime minister and military man during the Three Kingdoms period. In other words, almost everyone in the village has the surname of Zhuge Liang or is married to the Zhuge family. There are very few people who are not members of the Zhuge clan.

According to a statistic from the 7th Zhuge Liang Workshop, there are about 16,000 descendants of Zhuge Liang in China. Of these, a quarter (about 4,000 people) live alone in Gia Cat village.

Second, this village is still strange in its subtle and mysterious layout.

Looking down from above, the whole arrangement, distribution of houses, to the alleys in the village all coincide with the Bat Mon map of Zhuge Liang in history.

The topography of Gia Cat village is arranged in the middle of low and flat, the surrounding ascending. Water flows from above and converges in the central area, forming a pond.

This pond is a special feature of Gia Cat village, which is also the starting place for the Bat Battle. The pond is not big, but inside there is water, outside is earth, and has the same shape as Tai chi in the Bat Monster. What a strange thing.

Centered on the pond, there were eight alleys open in all directions, leading directly to eight high mounds outside the village.

In the village, there are also many narrow alleys connected horizontally, in the alley there are thousands of households, many ancient houses are scattered among the alleys.

The alleys near the central pond are at first relatively straight, then gradually fold and expand to the outside. Besides, there are many alleys that are connected vertically and horizontally, which looks like a maze.

It is difficult for outsiders to enter alleys, and even get lost. Therefore, for hundreds of years, no one has dared to enter this village. It has become a secluded place from the world.

Interestingly, the descendants of Zhuge Liang who have lived here for hundreds of years also do not realize the magic of this layout. It was not until the relevant records were found in an ancient book that everyone was at this point.
