"Well": Change the city but not the well, no loss, no gain, go to and from the well, even if you don't buy the well, if you lose the bottle, it is fierce. "Yuan" said: Sunda is close to the water and goes up to the water, "well", the well nourishes but not poor. "Changing the city but not changing the well" is based on strength; "Love its bottle", so it is inauspicious. Those who eat, go; those who do not eat, come.Whether you eat or not, depends on people.Therefore, those who are "wells" are for themselves.For others, two; for oneself, one.Therefore, it is called "Laijingjing". "汔", dry also.When it reaches the well but does not reach the water, it is called "Qi".When water comes out of the well, it is called "Weiyu Well".There is no gain or loss in the well, the merit of "Xianjing" and the evil of "Yingping" are the ones who get it.

"Xiang" says: There is water on the wood, "well"; the gentleman persuades the prime minister by working the people. People are in the well, and there is no one who is imprisoned; therefore, the gentleman pushes the way "to persuade the prime minister by working the people." Sixth day: Well mud is not eaten, and old wells have no poultry. "Xiang" said: "The mud in the well does not eat"; "Yi" regards the residence as evil and righteous, but it is not necessary; but "well" is necessary.There are no wells that are clean but not clear, and dirty but not turbid, so it is where they live, and evil and righteous are determined.Confucius said: "A gentleman's evil lives in the low class, and all the evil in the world will return to him." On the sixth day of the lunar month, the evil is also loved; and also. "Yuan" says that "wells are nourished but not poor", so there is no other person who raises "wells"!If you live in it, you will be clean, if you are clean, you will eat, and if you eat, you will be renewed every day, and you will be renewed every day, so there is no end. Those who "well mud" are gradually "no poultry", and "mud" without "eating" is useless. "Old well" is also an abandoned well; there are no people at the beginning and no birds at the end.No one can still be cured, and no poultry cannot be cured.Therefore, those who are wells are dead, so they are all abandoned at all times.

Ninety-two: Jinggu shoots fish, urn leaks. "Xiang" said: "Jinggu shoots fish", there is nothing to do with it. Ninety-two is not right, so if there is no response to the top, it will just go down.Those who go down are the way of the valley; the way of the well is lost and the valley is formed, so it is called "well valley".The trend of the 92nd is also the sixth day; the sixth day is called "鲋".If there are "fish" in the well, people will be evil, but they still have their ambitions in the urn, why?He has a sharp weapon, but is he willing to use my dirty weapon?This must be the urn of leaks, it is not the urn, and it is the well if it is not drained.

Nine three: If you don't eat in the well, it's for my heart; you can draw it, and Wang Ming will be blessed by it. "Xiang" said: "If you don't eat in the well", you will be compassionate; if you ask for "Wang Ming", you will receive blessings. "渫", clean also.Jiusan lives in the right place, and the well is clean.Well clean but not eat, why?Not hit also.Those who are not in the middle are not met in the city where they live, so "don't eat".Well, there is no one who regards not eating as a kindness, and anyone who gives me sympathy is a person who walks the way, so it is called "walking sympathy". Those who "do sympathy" are those who understand people's sympathy for me, not my own sympathy. The well is beyond the capacity of the leaky urn, so it is chosen for its use.Said: Which one can be used?Is it only the cleanness of the utensils?If the utensils are clean, then the king will be enlightened; if the utensils are clean and Wang Ming, then I am not the only one who is blessed.

June 4th: Jingdeng, no blame. "Xiang" said: "There is no blame for the well", and it is also for repairing the well. "Xiu" means clean.Yang means movement and reality, and yin means static and emptiness.The reason why the spring is a well is that it moves and is real;Therefore, the three yangs are springs, and the three yins are wells.The sixth day is the lowest, so it is called "Ni"; the upper sixth is the highest, so it is called "Shou"; "甃" refers to the well, so the well is kept clean from evil, and the well is clean when it is treated, so "no blame".

Ninth Five-Year: Wells and cold springs, food. "Xiang" said: "Food" in "Cold Spring" is Zhongzheng. This is "positive" and nine-three-one, so the eater is "centered". Shangjiu: Jingshou, don't screen; Youfu, Yuanji. "Xiang" said: "Yuanji" is on the top, and Dacheng is also. Those who "receive" are above the pot and poor. "Receive" is not the reason for the well, but the power of the well lies in "receive".If the husband goes to cover it, even if there is a cold spring below, it will not reach it, and even if there is a drawer above it, it will not be obtained.
