Zhuge Liang continued his life with a seven-star lamp. What exactly is a seven-star lamp?

Legend has it that Zhuge Liang extended his life with a seven-star lamp. It is said that the seven-star lamp corresponds to the stars in the sky. It has been handed down from the Shang and Zhou Dynasties. Its principle lies in "borrowing longevity", and what you want to extend with the seven-star lamp is the length of life. When Zhuge Liang attacked Wei in the Three Kingdoms, he was in poor health and lit the seven-star lamp to continue his life. He sent dozens of people to protect him. As long as the seven-star lamp is not extinguished within seven days, he can prolong his life. However, Wei delayed the arrival of Wei Jun, and put out the light when reporting in the account. Zhuge Liang failed to prolong his life and died in the account.

Zhuge Liang stayed at home because he was overworked and didn't want his old enemy Sima Yi to know. Important things are arranged for the proud disciple Jiang Wei. Zhuge Liang himself set up a seven-star light array in the camp. Outside this array, there are 7,749 small lights, and a life core monument light surrounds it. If there is no Zhuge Liang within seven days, you can survive and continue a reincarnation, that is, a life span of twelve years.

At that time, Zhuge Liang was exhausted after six trips to Qishan, and he knew that time was running out. In order to fulfill the last wish of the late emperor, he continued his life with a seven-star lamp. Sima Yi also knows a little about astrology, so he knows that Zhuge Liang's time is running out. He sent troops to investigate. Wei Yan thinks that this is Wei Jun's attempt to attack the city and plunder the village and scrape out seven-star lanterns. After Zhuge Liang's death, he withdrew from Shu, and the seven-star lamp continued his life in failure.

In the Ming Dynasty, a military man used this method to extend the life of 12 years, helping his monarch to successfully pacify the Central Plains. He is Liu Bowen, the founding father of the Ming Dynasty. In fact, when Liu Bowen assisted Zhu Chongba, he felt that his birthday was approaching, and he thought of the "seven-star lamp renewal method" of Zhuge Prime Minister in the Three Kingdoms period. Finally, he really succeeded, and he escaped. If Liu Bowen dies early, it is not clear who the world belongs to.
