Luo Vessels
List all the misdeeds of Duke Feng thoroughly and accurately, and register them in the records, notifying the disciplinary committee’s appointed Zheng Hou (correct marquis). They wield magical tools like a big bell, glowing inside and out, illuminating this dark, stinky ditch (destroyed by Duke Feng’s havoc).

Sixteen Xi-Cleft Point Poem
Fear the coolness of the land by the dusk as old age approaches, where metal and water meet at the external hill and governor vessel, fortune favors the Yang intersection at Fuyang
— Kongzui, Wenliu, Liangqiu, Diji, Yinxie, Laoyang (lung, large intestine, spleen, heart, small intestine);
— Jinmen, Shuiquan, Xiemen, Huizong, Waiqiu, Zhongdu (bladder, kidney, pericardium, triple burner, gallbladder, liver respectively);
— Fuyang, Jiaoxin, Yangjiao, Zhubin (Yang and Yin Qiao Vessels)
— The coolness of the land might disappear due to insufficient sunset light and old age; the dramatic gatherings of metal and water might exclude the governor from the hills. Fortunately, Fuyang completed a superstructure of an artificial sun before the sunset fully vanished, ensuring the land remains cool.
