People who eat its meat will not be attacked by poisonous heat and evil spirits.

At present, the legend of the nine-tailed fox often appears in various movies and games, but it is gradually demonized with the original auspicious signs. Especially, the image of da ji, the incarnation of the fox in The Romance of the Gods, pushed the concept of seduction of the ancient prostitute fox, the most popular fox, the nine-tailed fox, to the extreme, and also pushed the taboo concept of womanhood and the female concept of "women can never lose their country" to the extreme.
