Overtime is a common occupation. In ancient times, people lacked accurate means of telling the time, and almost all the time in the evening depended on overtime. Even many rural towns have overtime. At that time, there was little cultural and entertainment life at night, which was basically made at sunrise and stopped at sunset. When people hear the beat of the night watchman, they know the time and what to do according to the usual practice. People live a quiet life step by step. After liberation, with the improvement of people's material and cultural living standards and the popularization of clocks and watches, people's demand for time is far from being satisfied by playing. Naturally, the ancient occupation of overtime has gradually disappeared.
Although there is less overtime, there are still many things to pay attention to.
When playing the night shift (that is, at seven o'clock in the evening), it is slow and fast, and it is played three times in a row, and the sound is like "Dong! -hey! " , "Dong! -hey! " , "Dong! -hey! " ;
I called my watch for the second time (9 pm), and I called it again and again, many times in a row. That sound is like "dong! Hey! " . "Dong! Hey! " ;
When you hit the third night (eleven o'clock at night), you should slow down and accelerate, and the sound is like "Dong! -Dong! Hey! " ;
When playing the fourth watch (one o'clock in the morning), you have to go to slow three fast, and the sound is like "Knock! Knock on the door. Hey ";
When playing the fifth watch (three o'clock in the morning), one is slow and four is fast, and the sound station is "Knock! Knock on the door. Knock on the door. Hey! " .
Generally speaking, it is from slow to fast, and it ends after three trips. But why not play the sixth watch (5 am)? Because the ancients went to bed early and got up early, they began to get up and do housework after the fifth watch. "A day's work lies in the morning." Even the emperor began to prepare for the even court. In addition, there is a saying that there is a ghost on the string in the Wugeng. It is not appropriate to disturb them at this time, so as not to affect their inability to return to the underworld and cause disaster to the dead. Of course, this is the feudal superstition of the ancients.
Watchmen in ancient times had a hard time. He can't sleep at night, so he can only watch the drip (a kind of timing thing) or burn incense (also a kind of timing thing) to grasp the accurate time. Although working overtime is a noble profession, it seems that the ancients sometimes joked about working overtime. There is a saying that "overtime makes people sleep-doing things improperly" is proof. There is also a saying that "the left hand hits the third watch", which means that it is wrong to watch the watch for the first time and hit the third watch. Actually, fighting has a long history. Fighting originated from primitive witchcraft and mainly played the role of exorcism. Only respected wizards are qualified to fight. Therefore, in many literary works, the custom of fighting ghosts has been retained. For example, in the famous Dream of Red Mansions, there is such a passage that "Wu Gui came home at night and died on the kang. People outside say that the monster climbed over the wall and sucked sperm to death because his wife was not suitable. So the old lady was so anxious that she sent many people around Baoyu's house to patrol and play ... "
There are also many celebrities playing overtime. For example, Dr. Sun Yat-sen's father used to work overtime, but he has cultivated such an outstanding figure as Sun Yat-sen. In the Nanyang Memorial Hall of Sun Yat-sen, his father's overtime items are still preserved, which can't help but cause people to think about overtime.
