What are the beasts in Shan Hai Jing?

The beasts in Shan Hai Jing are Candle dragon, Ying Long and Roh Moo-hyun.

Candle dragon 1

Shan Hai Jing? Unofficial history records: "Beyond the Northwest Sea, to the north of Chishui, there is Zhang Wei. There is a god, the snake's face is red, and his straight eyes are riding a horse, gloomy and bright. No food, no sleep, no rain. It is a nine-yin candle, which means Candle dragon. "

People often say that Candle dragon is a candle with nine shadows. It can be said that it is the strongest beast in the mountain and sea world. Of course it's already a god. Some people even say that the prototype of Candle dragon is Pangu God, because Candle dragon closes his eyes for the night, opens his eyes for the day, exhales for the summer and inhales for the winter. If you don't sleep, eat or drink for 10 thousand years, the mountain will collapse if you move. Undoubtedly, it is the strongest beast in the mountains and seas!

2. Ying Long

Ying Long appeared in my article many times. There are nine dragons in the sky, and Ying Long has wings. Ying Long is a real dragon and the only dragon in the mountains and seas. Ying Long, as a god beast, has made great contributions to mankind in the lower world, helping the Yellow Emperor to slay Chiyou and Kuafu and Dayu to control water.

According to Shan Hai Jing? "Wild East longitude" records: "In the northeast corner of the wild, there is a mountain called fierce plough hill. Ying Long killed Chiyou and Kuafu at the South Pole, and it can't be returned. So there are several droughts, such as Ying Long, which are heavy rains. " Ying Long's achievements are remembered by the world, and his magical power and status are also envied by his peers.

Later generations wrote that the process of wanting to evolve into Yinglong was "dragon five turned into a dragon in a hundred years, a dragon in a thousand years, a ceratosaurus in dragon five in a hundred years, and a Ying Long in a thousand years." In The Classic of Mountains and Seas, Ying Long, as the first flying dragon between heaven and earth, deservedly ranked second.

3. Lu Wu

Few people use capital letters to describe Lu Wu, because Lu Wu is very low-key and capable, but he is only willing to defend his family for the Emperor of Heaven. Shan Hai Jing? Xishan Jing: "Four hundred miles southwest, commonly known as the hill of Kunlun, the capital of the real emperor, is under the control of the Luwu God. Its god-like tiger body and Kyubi no Youko, human face and Tiger Claw; It is also a god, nine points in heaven, and the emperor. "

Roh Moo-hyun is the tiger of Kyubi no Youko, but he has a face. Whether it's a god or a demon, Kyubi no Youko's nine heads are generally more powerful. This Luwu beast is in charge of the Nine Days Department on Kunlun Mountain, the capital of Tiandi all the year round. No evil thing can pass, because prudence is effective, and it is also called enlightened beast!
