When it comes to blowing dust, we usually think of some immortals in Taoism. Indeed, blowing dust is mainly used as a utensil in Taoism. Taoism believes that dust removal can strengthen the body and improve intelligence, strengthen the body and eliminate diseases, and strengthen the body to ward off evil spirits. And there are many beautiful women, so monks often like to powder.
In addition, blowing dust is also a unique weapon in the rivers and lakes of Wutangmen. Taoist priests like to walk the rivers and lakes with handles, and it takes skill to walk the rivers and lakes. Under such circumstances, some Jianghu people, represented by Wu Tang Gang, have developed the function of dusting weapons, which we should be familiar with in martial arts movies or novels. For example, in mythology, the dust of the old gentleman on the throne is both a tool and a weapon, which is both beautiful and useful.
In court, the dust will return to its original appearance. As the name implies, dust removal and sweeping. Blowing dust, also known as stroke or tail stroke, is to tie animal hair and hemp thread into a bundle and then attach a long handle. Dust removal can not only sweep dust, but also repel mosquitoes. Buddhism forbids killing, but allows monks to drive away mosquitoes and flies with dust.
The dust in the hands of eunuchs is neither a tool nor a weapon. If a eunuch is skilled in martial arts and walks around the emperor with a duster every day, I think the emperor may not sleep well at night. The role of dust removal in eunuchs is somewhat similar to today's feather duster, which is mainly used to sweep away dust and drive away mosquitoes. Of course, if children are disobedient, parents also like to spank their children with feather dusters, which should have no effect on dust removal.
