Xiang Liu, also known as Xiang Yao, is an evil spirit in ancient myths and legends of China, and also a minister of the Ministry of Industry, a Beijingwang from overseas. This snake has nine heads and has eaten countless people. Wherever you go, you will become a Zeguo.
The water it spews out is worse than the flood, bitter and spicy, and it will kill people if eaten. Therefore, this kind of Shui Ze can't even live with animals. Seeing that Liu Xiangru was so rampant, Yu killed Liu Xiang with divine power, so as to kill the people. When Xiang Liu's blood touches the land, the grain is barren and pollutes a large area.
Yu tried to block it with mud, but it was trapped in three places, so Yu had to divide the land into pools, and all the gods were building a high platform to suppress the devil.

In Shan Hai Jing, the most famous is a hydra beast, which is not only the fiercest, but also has a legacy after death. This beast is Xiang Liu.
According to the Overseas North Classics, "I am a minister of * * *, which means that I have a hydra to eat. When Liu arrived, he was named Zexi. When you kill Xiang Liu, it is bloody and you can't grow grain. " . The main idea is that there is a kind of god beast, which is the servant of the workers, called Xiang Liu. The snake has nine heads and eats in 1993.
Wherever Xiang Liu went, it was a swamp and a stream. After Dayu killed him, he was covered in blood and smelly. As long as he passes by, even crops can't be planted. From here, we can also see that Liu, a god beast, has a snake body with nine heads. Many people think that this is the legendary hydra, a kind of snake deformity.
However, some people objected that the snake was not nine-headed, but because the author mistakenly thought it had nine heads because of its appearance, and pointed out that the snake was actually a cobra, and the swollen neck of the cobra was the reason why the author regarded it as a hydra.
