There is a folk saying "I would rather suffer the peach blossom disaster than get close to White Tiger body", which means literally: I would rather suffer the disaster of love than get close to the white Tiger. So what does this sentence really mean? Let me tell you something else.
1. It is better to suffer the peach blossom disaster
First of all, let me talk about peach blossom disaster . What is peach blossom disaster?
Peach Blossom Calamity, some people may not know much about it, but when it comes to love luck, people know that having love luck means having good things. In our lives, we often hear people say that that person really has good luck in love. This kind of luck in love refers to the good luck of a man or a woman in love. It also means that a person will have a good fate in his destiny, and there will be many friends of the opposite sex around him in the future.
Let me put it this way, if a person has good luck in love, he has good luck in love, but don’t forget that love luck is good and bad. Good luck is called love luck, and bad luck is called peach blossom disaster.
Peach Blossom Luck is considered to represent love. In " Zhouyi ", "Ziwu Maoyou" represents the four directions of "south, north, east, and west" in the earthly branches. When the peach Blossom Luck will bloom, this time is to pray for love, so the ancients called love "peach Blossom Luck".
Peach blossom luck and peach blossom disaster are also related to astrological signs. In the process of looking at astronomy, the ancients often corresponded astrological signs to some things in life. Among the fourteen main stars of Ziwei, find your own life palace main stars. As long as one of them is one, it means you will encounter peach blossoms. Therefore, the peach blossom luck and peach blossom disaster are sometimes destined.
Good luck and good marriage, it will be easy to meet someone you like, that is, you have good luck in love. If you have bad luck, you will miss a good marriage. Even if you get married, you will be entangled and have disagreements, which may eventually become a life-and-death disaster.
And "will rather suffer the peach blossom disaster" means that you would rather suffer the peach blossom disaster of bad peach blossoms than get close to the white tiger body.
Then what is the white tiger body? Why in the eyes of the ancients, there is nothing about the peach blossom disaster, but what is terrible is that it is close to the "white tiger body"?
2. Don’t get close to the white tiger body
“White tiger body” is so powerful, so what is the white tiger body? Don’t be close to the white tiger body, it’s not a white tiger body.
In ancient times, the white tiger had many meanings. Let’s first understand several meanings, and see what the white tiger with “Don’t get close to the body of the white tiger” belongs to?
1. The white tiger represents the direction. The White Tiger is the god of the West. In ancient times, the four major beasts of Qinglong , white tiger, Zhuque , and Xuanwu each represent one direction. The east green dragon, the west white tiger, the north black twilight, and the south vermilion bird. Among the twenty-eight constellations, there are 54 constellations and more than 700 stars in the West, which form the white tiger pattern. Therefore, the seven constellations in the West are also called the seven constellations of the White Tiger.
2. The White Tiger is an ancient festival hall, also known as the White Tiger Festival Hall, which is an important place for ancient military operations. In " Water Margin ", Lin Chong's wife was teased by Gao Yanei twice. The imperial guards instructor Lin Chong suppressed his anger and did not exacerbate. In order to meet his son's unreasonable request, Gao Qiu wanted to frame Lin Chong and get rid of Lin Chong. So he designed to say that , Taiwei Gao himself had a treasure knife, but I heard that Teacher Lin also bought a treasure knife, so I really wanted to see it and compare it. Let Lin Chong take the knife to the White Tiger Festival Hall to wait.
Lin Chong was too honest and didn't think much about it, so he went with his sword. When he arrived at the White Tiger Festival Hall, Lin Chong suddenly woke up. The White Tiger Festival Hall was a place to discuss major national military affairs. Without permission, no one could bring weapons to enter, otherwise it would be a serious crime. Lin Chong went in and held a knife. This was a crime. It was too late for Lin Chong to leave, so he was caught. He was caught with a knife and was hard to speak. He was eventually convicted and imprisoned. Therefore, the White Tiger Festival Hall is a military important place.
3. White tiger refers to silver. How could Baiyin be associated with the White Tiger? We need to start with the ancient red-topped businessman Hu Xueyan .
Hu Xueyan is both an official and a businessman. He has strong abilities. After struggle, he became the richest man in the late Qing Dynasty. However, in order to obtain greater economic profits, he took risks and ended up in a complete defeat and ruined his painstaking management. So before his death, he warned his descendants: "Don't get close to the white tiger."
What Hu Xueyan said, "Don't get close to the white tiger" is not anything else, but it is summarized based on his life experience and lessons of failure. It is best not to get close to the white silver, the seductive silver is the white tiger that can eat people.
So, combined with the common sayings to express, I personally think that the white tiger in "Don't get close to the white tiger" refers to silver.
Later, in the folk, in order to express that silver is something that can be rich and harm people, it is a white tiger that eats people without spitting bones, and it must not be stuck. So there is a common saying "I would rather suffer the peach blossom disaster than be close to the body of a white tiger." The purpose is to warn future generations that they would rather suffer such a disaster in their love luck than be greedy for Baiyin, a man-eating white tiger.
