First of all, I:
These two words look very uncommon, in fact, the pronunciation is very simple, that is, the pronunciation of gorillas, and the animals described in Shan Hai Jing also have the shadow of gorillas. In the Classic of Mountains and Seas, he was described as "a beast, which looks like white-eared jade and sneaks along by pedestrians, and its name is' Yi Ying, eats good and walks'".
There is a wild animal in the mountains, which looks like a macaque but has white ears. It can crawl and walk upright, and its meat can make people walk very fast. Probably so, really like a gorilla.
In fact, from its description, it probably looks like a gorilla. However, in Shan Hai Jing, this animal named Yingying has two other faces. Some people say that he is a pig's head, knowing the past, but not the future. Others say that he is covered with human animal hair.
Second, you:
A magical fish is recorded in Shan Hai Jing. "There is a kind of fish that looks like a cow and lives in a mausoleum. The tail of a snake has wings. Its feathers are under its chin, and it sounds like it left a cow. Its name is awkward. Winter is dead and summer is born, and food is not bloated. "
There is a fish in the water, which looks like a cow and lives on the hillside. It has a snake-shaped tail and wings on its ribs. It is called yak. This kind of fish is called yak, which sleeps in winter and wakes up in summer. As long as you eat its meat, you can prevent people from suffering from carbuncle.
Third, class:
"Shan Hai Jing" records: "Four hundred miles to the east means that the mountains are full of water and no vegetation, so you can't go up. There is a wild animal that looks like a raccoon and has a rush. Its name is class, and it is a beast. Eating food is not jealous. "
400 miles further east, there is a mountain called Xushan. There is a lot of running water on the mountain. People can't climb without flowers and trees. There is a wild animal in the mountains, which looks like a civet cat, but has long hair like a human. It is called an animal. This wild animal can be divided into male and female. If people eat the meat of an animal, they won't be jealous.
Fourth, the nine-tailed fox:
There are often some images of nine-tailed foxes in TV dramas, most of which are insidious. This is the case with the nine-tailed fox in Shan Hai Jing. "It's three hundred miles to the east, and it's called Qingshan Mountain. Its yang is full of jade, and its yin is full of pheasants. There is a wild animal that looks like a fox and Kyubi no Youko, sounds like a baby and can eat people. Eating food is not awkward. "
Three hundred miles to the east, there is a mountain called Qingqiu, with rich jade in the south and green pheasants in the north. There is a wild animal in the mountains, which looks like a fox and has nine tails. It sings like a baby crying and eats people. If people eat its meat, they can avoid being attacked by evil spirits and toxic gases.
In ancient times, the nine-tailed fox represented auspicious signs and the prosperity of future generations. "Wu Yue Chun Qiu" records that the legendary Dayu didn't know he was not married until he was 30 years old. Once he passed by Tu Shan and saw the nine-tailed fox, he couldn't help thinking of a folk song circulating in Tu Shan, to the effect that whoever saw the nine-tailed white fox could be king; Whoever can meet Tushan's daughter can make his family prosperous, so he married Tushan's daughter.
The auspicious character of the nine-tailed fox stems from some of its habits, such as turning its head in the direction of its birthplace after death, so the ancients thought it would not forget its roots. Its Kyubi no Youko is hairy and beautiful, but the ancients thought it symbolized the reproduction and prosperity of future generations.
In the pre-Qin period, the nine-tailed fox had a slightly magical image, but in the Han Dynasty it became auspicious, symbolizing the symbol of having many children and being blessed by kings and princes. During the Six Dynasties, the atmosphere gradually changed, gradually declined after the Tang Dynasty, and turned back to the negative image again.
Five, tiger dumpling:
In the Classic of Mountains and Seas, when I was writing the Prayer of Crossing the Mountain, I said that there was a creature named Tiger Jiao on the mountain. "One of them is a tiger dumpling, which looks like a fish and has a snake tail. It sounds like a mandarin duck. If the person who eats is not swollen, it can already be hemorrhoids. "
The translated image is that water rises from this mountain and then flows south into the sea. There is a kind of tiger dumpling in the water, which looks like an ordinary fish, but it drags a snake-like tail and sounds like a mandarin duck. Eating its meat can prevent people from getting carbuncle and swelling, and can also cure hemorrhoids.
