The Allusion of Death Without a Burial

One day in the last years of the Ming Dynasty, the great traveler Xu Xiake came to a bridge. He saw that the bridge was full of people, and there were two people in the middle of the bridge with their teeth and claws waving. The servants were shouting: "Pedestrians are not allowed to cross the bridge." After a while, one after another plow trucks passed by the bridge. It turned out to be the local rich man Zhao Da, who was returning from plowing the fields. The local emperor in Shili, known as the "living king of hell", often plundered the people's land by any means. Xu Xiake planned to punish Zhao Da.

At that time, Zhao Da was looking for a "feng shui treasure land" to arrange his funeral arrangements in the future. Xu Xiake took advantage of the situation and dressed up as a Feng Shui master and came to Zhao's gate. When Zhao Da saw that he was well-groomed, he invited him into the living room and begged him to find a good cemetery. Xu Xiake pretended to calculate for a long time, then suddenly stood up and said: "No, you may die without a burial place!" Zhao Daqi said angrily: "You are talking nonsense! I have thousands of hectares of fertile land, why don't I have a place to stay?" "Xu Xiake said, "If you don't believe it, let's make a bet." The rich man asked him how to play. Xu Xiake said: "I will write the words 'Death without burial' on the paper and release it at 1:30 noon. If it falls on your territory, I am willing to be punished; if it does not fall on your territory, you will be punished." Pay me a hundred taels of silver." Zhao Da agreed. As he spoke, the weather suddenly changed and the wind became stronger and stronger. When the time came, the family threw the piece of paper away. The piece of paper drifted into the distance with the wind. The family members chased for a whole afternoon before they came back and reported to Zhao Da: "Master, something bad has happened, the paper has fallen into someone else's property!" Zhao Da was stunned when he heard this, and soon he was frightened to death. It turned out that Xu Xiake was a meteorologist with rich astronomical knowledge. He concluded that the wind would blow soon, so he came up with this method and took the opportunity to get rid of this bully for the people.

Later, this story spread, and "Death without a burial place" became a common saying
