2. During the reign of Emperor Jing of Han Dynasty, there was a man named Zhang Mingbairen who was very good at doing good deeds and managed dozens of miles of land in Fiona Fang. At that time, heaven was in chaos and nobody was in charge. After finding Zhang Bairen, barefoot immortals and other immortals thought that this person was very suitable to take care of the celestial world, they discussed with several immortals and made Zhang Bairen the jade emperor.
When they found Zhang Bairen and told him about it, Zhang Bairen was very picky and took everything, even chickens and dogs. Pigs love to play, and go out to play when they ascend to heaven. So I didn't take it to heaven, so I sacrificed it with a pig's head. So one person gets the word, and the chicken and dog ascend to heaven.

In particular, families with boys under the age of 16 have respect and belief in the Jade Emperor. How many boys of this age are there in the family? After a certain period of time, how many "lamp holders" are offered and burned.
