Burrows of hibernating creatures (蟄戶: the first character is [pronounced with the fanqie] zhi + li; the Shuowen says it means "to hide"; another explanation says it is the sound of insects and crawling creatures; the "Yueling" chapter of the Liji says: "On the day of the Awakening of Insects, peach trees begin to bloom"; the Shuowen says it is formed from bug [虫] with zhi as phonogram).
