text:

In front of the field huts one can still see the remains of the Ou-ling-pu sacrificial ceremony. There are two baskets turned upside down over a bamboo pole of the kind used for carrying chickens and split bamboo which had been used to cook meat and transport it to the fields hut after killing the pig in the village
