Why should I stop for more than three days?

according to the ancient funeral custom, the coffin should be stopped for at least three days. It is said that I hope the dead can come back to life. If you can't be resurrected in three days, your hopes will be completely shattered. In fact, it took a long time to stop the funeral, because the funeral was complicated at that time, especially the emperors, who needed huge tombs and a large number of funerary objects, which required a lot of manpower and time.

After modern times, coffins were generally buried after the "seventh day". According to tradition, people don't know that they are dead until seven days after their death, so they have to hold a "seven-day ceremony", and the "July 7th" will end in forty-nine days. In fact, this is mainly influenced by Buddhism and Taoism.
