Where does the gate of Bao Gong's house open?

Now to build an old house in the village and restore the Bao family, we must first understand. If you want to know the whereabouts of Bao Gong's family, you have to jump out of Baoxiao Village and start from a distance-it is an indisputable fact that there were wonders in ancient Hefei County, Dongxiang County and generals in Xixiang County. Dongxiang, Hefei, now belongs to Feidong County. From Siding Mountain and Qingyang Mountain on the shore of Chaohu Lake in the south, Longquan Mountain, Fu Cha Mountain and Taizi Mountain in the middle, and Xiaoxian Mountain in Baogong Town, all belong to Dabie Mountain, which stretches intermittently for more than 50 kilometers. From south to north, there are Jianshankou, Dongshankou, Jiuchongkou and Beishankou (Xiaoxian Mountain), which are the most famous mountains. It is not only a thousand-year traffic artery for merchants in the East and West Mountains, but also a treasure trove of geomantic omen in Dongxiang, Hefei. Celebrities of all ages have come forth in large numbers, which is really famous mountains and rivers. The ancient Xiaoxian Mountain is not only a strategic artery for military strategists, but also has many legends. Bao Xiao Village, the hometown of Bao Gong, is located on the north side of Xiaoxian Mountain in Beishankou. In Bao Xiao Village, Bao Gong's hometown, there are mountains stretching for more than a hundred miles in the east, and purple gas emerges from Xiaoxian Mountain Pass in the south. There is a distinct natural river in front of the village, and there is a tiger mountain in the south of the village. Phoenix does not fall in a land without treasure, and the violet temple is full of morning bells. This is a natural coincidence, many images are superimposed together, and this is a land of feng shui. The layout of Baoxiao Village in Song Dynasty was completely different from that of the present village. As far as topography and landforms are concerned, the door facing south does not conform to the old living rules. Relying on mountain villages generally embodies the word "relying on". According to the orientation and actual topographic layout, the east or west of the village gate is dominant, and the north-south direction does not conform to the living laws at that time. Judging from the terrain around Baoxiao Village, we can preliminarily judge that Bao Gong's house should not face south or north, so should it face east or west? Let's enter Baoxiao Village again and study why the gate of Bao Gong's house is southeast. First, judging from the topography of the village, the east is high and the west is low. The whole village is built on the back of Shan Yang branch. According to the ancient building rules, the steep mountain should face west and be called Xiangyang Village. The mountain is gentle and slightly buffered, and the gate should face east. Secondly, according to the analysis of the surrounding terrain, the ancients paid great attention to geomantic omen when building houses, and the door climbed eastward. Generally, houses are built on the ridges with small slopes, with high east and low west, and the doors are getting higher and higher, indicating that the fortune at home is getting better and better. Why do the doors of the house face east and south? Mainly to meet the auspiciousness of Nanshankou, considering that the terrain in front of the door coincides with it, the way out is better. There is a qinglian temple at the end, blessed by the gods, and the Buddha is shining high. Third, from the point of view of water, although the Song Dynasty was more than 1000 years ago, the overall terrain did not change much. From south to north, it has become a small canal, and it still winds to the lotus pond, the Baogong family's photo pond. Fourthly, from the perspective of residential planning, there is a pond in front and a garden well behind, and the gates facing east and south conform to the traditional planning layout. The back garden is usually built behind the house. What else is the back garden? But why didn't Bao Gong's house build a swimming pool in the back garden, but drill a well? Mainly from the perspective of geomantic omen, the ancients thought that the treasure house was climbing because it was high in the east and low in the west, and then it would take root and sprout. Otherwise, it is easy to slide and not easy to use, and there is no mound support in the distance. The well was nailed in geomantic omen, so that the whole treasure house was safe. There are still many unsolved mysteries about Bao Xiaocun and Bao Gong's house, which need further study in the future. Li Zhiwen, Deputy Director of Feidong County Cultural Bureau.
