What's the best solution for road grabbing?
To solve the road erosion, Taishan Shi Gandang can also be placed in the position of air outlet hedge in the residential structure. Shi Gandang on Mount Tai is a kind of geomantic omen. Shi Gandang, Mount Tai, originated from a legend. It is said that there is a warrior at the foot of Mount Tai, whose surname is Shi Ming. He is skilled in martial arts and has the courage to exorcise demons for the people. Over time, the mountain people carved his name on the stone and stood it in the house as the treasure of the town house, in order to ward off evil spirits and drive away ghosts, and to get in and out safely. Taishan stone also has the function of avoiding evil spirits in geomantic omen.
Shi Gandang on Mount Tai is a folk culture, which is used by the people to ward off evil spirits. It is similar to the folk saying that "Jiang Taigong is here", and it is mostly used in places where roads and waters are rushing, so as to break evil spirits and turn evil spirits into good fortune. Shaqi is easy to appear at the intersection, which is regarded as a ghost road by some people, that is, the road taken by people and ghosts. Therefore, in order to ward off evil spirits, some houses built near intersections and fork roads put Shi Gandang of Mount Tai at the fork road opposite the intersection to suppress evil spirits and ghosts.

Its efficacy has developed from pressing ominous and exorcising evil spirits at first to expelling wind, waterproofing, exorcising evil spirits, stopping evil spirits and eliminating disasters.
