An ancient monster symbolizing fairness

I studied as a tour guide. China folk custom is my compulsory course. What the landlord said should be "arrogant"!

Avengers are not monsters. According to legend, they are one of the nine sons of the dragon. Because of their high wisdom, understanding human nature, distinguishing right from wrong, knowing good and evil and being loyal to traitors, they became the embodiment of justice in ancient law enforcement.

The following is an introduction to this argument:

Avengers, also called Xie Xie or Xie Bian, are rare animals in ancient legends. Big like a cow, small like a sheep, similar to Kirin. They have thick dark hair, bright eyes and a horn on their foreheads, commonly known as unicorns. It is intelligent and understands human nature. It shines with wide eyes, can distinguish right from wrong, can know good and evil, and is loyal to traitors. When it found an evil official, it knocked him down with its horn and ate his stomach. When there is a conflict or dispute between people, unicorns can point their horns at the unreasonable side, and even kill the damn people with their horns, which makes the offenders shudder. Hao Tao, the criminal officer of Yaodi, once quarreled. Every time it was difficult to decide, he was told the result of the quarrel, which was accurate. Therefore, in ancient times, it became the embodiment of law enforcement justice.

After all, it is a legend. No one has seen what it is, which has aroused a lot of imagination. Some people think it is like a deer, others call it like a cow, and more people say it is a sheep. In addition to related ancient books, such as the Book of the Later Han Dynasty, Lun Heng, Wu, etc., archaeological discoveries show that the cultural relics in the pre-Qin period were all in the shape of a dime sheep, and the bull appeared after the Eastern Han Dynasty.

As a symbol of China's traditional law, it has always been respected by all dynasties. According to legend, during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, King Wen of Chu once got an adversary and made a crown to wear on his head according to its shape, so it became popular in Chu. With this crown, the law enforcement suggestion of the Qin Dynasty is no exception for the Han Dynasty to inherit the Qin system. In the Eastern Han Dynasty, the statue of Hao Tao and the portrait of an ancient horse became indispensable decorations in the yamen, and the ancient horse crown was named the Faguan, so the law enforcer was also called the ancient horse, and this practice has continued. In the Qing Dynasty, censors, judges and other judicial supervision officials all wore sabre crowns and auxiliary clothes embroidered with the pattern of "sabre".

Obviously, the mocking image is a relic of the age of ignorance. In modern times, it is still regarded as the idol of law and justice.

Similarly, in the west, unicorns are also considered as a symbol of purity. People think that the power of its horns can suppress anything morally corrupt. At the same time, it has the meaning of chastity and is the representative of the perfect knight.
