When is the best time to bury Yin Shi?

Yin Shi is open from 3 am to 5 am. The ancients did not know how to bury people. Don't bury people in Yin Shi.

From the above time period, Yin Shi refers to the time period from 3: 00 am to 5: 00 am, because this time period is often the time when the humidity is the highest in a day, and at this time, when people are buried, the humidity is often taken underground. Another reason is that the temperature difference between day and night is relatively large at this time. Usually, this time is the time with the most dew in a day, and the humidity is heavy, so the ancients felt that this time was not suitable for burying people. Because if there is too much moisture and dew buried with the coffin, it will often accelerate the decay of the coffin, and because ancient civilians can't afford a good coffin, they won't choose Yin Shi as the time to bury the dead, so there is a saying that "Yin Shi doesn't bury people."
