In fact, Ren Yin and Gui Mao used the oldest chronology of cadres and branches in China, which has been used since ancient times. The trunk and branch refer to the ten-day trunk and the twelve-day branch respectively. The ten-day trunk is: A, B, D, E, G, N, N, N, R. The twelve-day branch is: Zi Chou Yin Mao, Tatsumi Shen You noon Xu Hai.

The ancients dated these ten days and twelve earthly branches and made a list of them. In order to facilitate memory, they also linked the twelve branches with the zodiac. For example, unitary stands for chicken and wool stands for rabbit. According to a certain formula, the number of years can be compared with the branch table, and the corresponding number of branches can be obtained.
