Ganzhou
It is said that in the time of the Song Dynasty in China, in Jiangkou Town, Xingguo , there was a temple called Fuchi Temple, which was a temple dedicated to General Wu Ganning .
The temple is famous for its effectiveness. People passing by the boat dare not go to worship. The ceremony of sacrificing livestock held in the temple has not stopped every day.
During the reign of Zhao Tuoyan, a big thief named Ma Jin. One day, Ma Jin crossed the Yangtze River from Qi (pronounced Qi) and Huangzhou areas and came to the temple to make a request by throwing cups of divinations, hoping to get permission from the gods and want to slaughter the people in Xingguo area. The gods do not allow it. Again and again, it is like this. Ma Jin said angrily: If you get the winning divination, I will slaughter the city, and if you get Yangjiao, I will slaughter the city, and if you get Yinjiao, I will slaughter the city and burn the temple.
Ma Jin threw the divination divination with his hand. The divination divination dropped to the ground and disappeared.
After a while, Ma Jin found that the disappeared cup divination was originally attached to the wall next to the gate. The cup divination was several feet high from the ground, standing in it and not falling.
Ma Jin panics and fears underground to apologize and exit the temple.
to Yijianzhi Author Hongmai When telling this story, people made a small pavilion to protect this cup of divination where it was originally located. People who pass by will inevitably go and pay tribute.
This story is told by a man named Wang Zhichuan.
Some people say that there are two large cups of divination blocks on the high walls of the temple hall, which are attached between the two beams. According to legend, these two large cups of divination blocks were thrown by a man named Huang Chao during the Tang Dynasty in China.
Some people say that the second beam in the story may refer to the secondary beam, that is, the beam generally supported by the main beam of the house.
Some people say that the Xingguo in the story is roughly in Xingguo County, Ganzhou City, Jiangxi Province, China today.
Some people say that today there is a village called Jiangkou in Xingjiang Township, Xingguo County, Ganzhou City, Jiangxi Province, China.
Some people say that the Qizhou in the story is roughly in Qichun County, Huanggang City, Hubei Province, China today.

Some people say that Gan Ning in the story, whose courtesy name is Xingba, was from the Three Kingdoms period in China. He once served as the prefect of Xiling and General Zhechong in .
Some people say that some ancient people believe that throwing the divination in the story is a way of communicating with gods and a way of divination.
cup divination is generally a meniscus-shaped utensil made of bamboo and wood. It has two pieces, each piece is flat inside and convex outside, with a flat plane as the sun and a convex surface as the shade.
The diviner silently recites the occupied things in front of the statue of the gods, and then throws the cup divination divination. After the cup divination drops to the ground or table:
If the situation facing upwards is a yin surface and a yang surface, it means that the god instructs the divination divination to be feasible;
If the situation facing upwards are two yang surfaces, it means that the gods do not agree with the things occupied by the divination divination divination;
If the situation facing upwards are two yin surfaces, it means that the gods instruct the divination divination to be feasible.
If one or two pieces of cup divination stand up but does not fall, it means that the gods warn the diviner.
Some people say that some ancient people believe that when a person throws a cup, if one or two cups are lost after being thrown or disappears when they are thrown, it means that the gods seriously warn the diviner or refuse to communicate with the diviner again.
Some people say that some ancient people initially used some kind of shell or shells for divination, and then for some reason they mostly replaced shells with shell-shaped things made of other materials. These shell-shaped things gradually evolved into cup divination, so the shape of cup divination is similar to that of shells.
Some people say that the ancients have many different ways of saying the methods of cup divination and throwing cup divination.
Some people say that Gan Ning in the story once stationed troops in a place called Fuchikou.
Some people say that the Fuchikou in the story is roughly in Fuchikou Village, Fuchi Town, Yangxin County, Huangshi City, Hubei Province, China today.
