In the old society, the traditional customs of feudal superstition were full of white things (funerals), especially the families of warlords, bureaucrats, exiled politicians, wealthy businessmen and gentry. In order to show their prestige, status and power, they do their utmost to extravagance and waste in the process of doing white things, and there are many complicated forms of superstition from death to burial.
