As we all know, both the East and the West have their own magical cultures. For example, there are zombies, vampires, etc. in the west, while there are images of demons, monsters and zombies in China. Zombies, in particular, have always had a fixed image, with green mouths and fangs, dressed in official uniforms of the Qing Dynasty. Why did the zombies in that movie wear the official uniforms of the Qing Dynasty? This image is not fabricated. You may not believe it when you say it. Let's take a look!
first of all, from ancient times to the present, in the eyes of our people, the position of officials is often unshakable. This can be reflected in the fact that no matter which family's genealogy, the ancestors of this family will be portrayed as officials. Under the influence of this culture, almost all the portraits of ancestors wear official clothes. If you know something about this culture, you will find that almost all the ancestral portraits in family ancestral temple are dressed in official uniforms. In this process, slowly, this also makes everyone gradually associate the dead with the official clothes.
Secondly, when the Qing army seized political rights, the Han people were slaughtered in the process, many civilians died innocently, and many others died on the way to escape. However, China has the traditional idea of "returning the fallen leaves to their roots". Therefore, almost all people want to return to their native land. This also produced a strange custom at that time: "driving the corpse." In addition, it is worth mentioning that the record of zombies is the most in the Qing Dynasty, and we now regard the Qing Dynasty as the origin of this culture.
Finally, according to some traditions, zombies are an evolutionary monster. Derived from the essence of the sun and the moon between heaven and earth, it constantly accumulates energy. Zombies for several months are called white zombies, and white hair is black after falling off, forming the most common "black" zombies in film and television works. It is said that after hundreds of years of skipping evolution, they will even become flying corpses, and will become "cockroaches" after 1 years.
In a word, because zombies originated in the Qing Dynasty and there are many officials in our country, zombies usually wear official uniforms of the Qing Dynasty. Everyone has seen similar films in the early days, and I believe they are all very creepy. Think about it, the lifeless pale face and sharp teeth reveal a cold breath, which makes people feel chilling.
