What is courage?

The pronunciation of animals is "brave and brave", a legendary beast. Its biggest feature is that it can make money and treasure, so it has become popular in recent years. But what is it and what is its function? In fact, many people are still very vague.

Let's start with something. The explanation in the Chinese dictionary is: "Two kinds of beasts in ancient books" historical records? The Five Emperors Biography [Xuanyuan] taught bears, scorpions, raccoons and tigers to fight Emperor Yan in Sakamoto wilderness. "Obviously, bears, tigers, raccoons, raccoons and tigers are the names of the tribes participating in the war and belong to the symbol of totem. Therefore, animals are the names of two kinds of animals. In ancient times, people used them as totems. " "Brave" is also used to describe a warrior who has a strong deterrent, is fearless and goes forward bravely. The mysterious origin of the brave led the ancient people to carve their own shapes with various stones to guard their homes and graves. What are these images? Hanshu? There is a record in the Biography of the Western Regions: "Wu Geshan is separated from the country by picking peaches, lions and urine cows. Meng Kang said: "The picked peach is called Fu Ba, which looks like a deer's tail." . One-horned deer, and two-horned deer are called exorcism. (Later, "Lu" was used instead of "deer", indicating the position of Lu and happiness) and "Were Han? "Ji of the Lingdi" contains: "(Lingdi) Fu Yutang, four bronze casters, four Huang Ling, and Tianlu toad." It can be seen that the appearance of cockroaches is uncertain. However, we can probably sum up what courage looks like according to these ancient records in China. The brave man's appearance is angular, slender and anticlimactic. The whole body is covered with cirrus, with big eyes and a big mouth. The chest is decorated with semi-circular strings, and the chest is outlined into overlapping scales with negative lines, which looks like the long tail of a phoenix rolling around the hips.

Modern people use various materials to carve it into a concrete image, which is to take a fancy to its function. As you can see from the above, you have at least two functions. The first is the role of the town house to ward off evil spirits. The second is the role of seeking wealth and prospering wealth. Many companies put magic in their business places just to play these functions. According to the production materials, there are metal, wood and jade carving. Because jade can not only make people virtuous, but also make people healthy, so in recent years, more and more people wear jade.
