Why did you say "mighty" when you went to the temple in ancient times? What stick did you use?

1, not "mighty", but officially shouted!

Shouting "mighty" when boarding the hall belongs to one of the "Tang Wei"

According to the ancient judicial system in China, the authority and sanctity of the law should be conveyed by drinking (that is, shouting) Tang Wei, patting the gavel, and putting up "withdrawal" and "silence" cards during the trial. Drinking Tang Wei rhythmically gives people a sense of urgency, that is, putting pressure on interrogators through psychological tactics. There are two meanings to say "mighty": first, because the voice of "mighty" has a sense of shock, it will first produce a sense of oppression on those who do something wrong, which is also a psychological tactic. Second, it comes from "power can't be bent", which means that good people can't succumb to powerful forces and do things that violate morality and law.

That stick is called Zhang Ting, and its main function is to drive away vehicles. It is also known as the fire stick and the threat stick. In ancient China, in principle, irregulars were not allowed to possess weapons of destruction such as knives and guns, and private individuals were forbidden to carry controlled knives. People who walk in the wild, especially officials, are usually equipped with this. The fire and water stick is about Qi Mei in length, with a red handle at the bottom and the rest in black. (It is said that the bottom of the fire and water stick of the official's son is covered with a flat iron, which has not been confirmed), which means that no affair is allowed, and it can play a role in warning and threatening to kill.
