It has been recorded in ancient books that Canglong in the East Palace, Zhuniao in the South, Xianchi in the West Palace, and Xuanwu in the North Palace are not white tigers here, but Xianchi.
Xianchi is the star of grains and autumn.
Because grains are harvested in autumn, it is placed in autumn.
However, it is not an animal.
How can it be matched with dragons, birds and turtles to form the four spirits?
In justice: The three stars of Xianchi are among the five chariots, the sky is in the south, and the fish and birds are there.
Therefore, in the Song Dynasty, questions were raised: Canglong, Zhuniao, Xuanwu, each can be divided into seven places.
As for Xianchi, there is another star, which is outside the twenty-eight constellations.
There is another explanation for Xianchi, which is a place where the sun bathes.
The sun rises in Yanggu, bathes in the salty pond, and brushes against the hibiscus.
This is called the morning light.
It can be seen that Xianchi was originally regarded as the place where the sun rises by the Qiang people.
Xianchi is also an alkaline lake, which should be a lake in the Minshan area or Qinghai.
This proves that there is no concept of green dragon and white tiger in the star palaces and celestial phenomena worshiped by primitive people.
The so-called: Lin, phoenix, turtle, dragon, are called the four spirits.
Replace Xianchi, which is not an animal, with Qilin.
In later generations, it was customary to have a lin among the four spirits and a tiger among the four elephants.
And because the white tiger is the god of war, many fierce generals are said to be white tiger stars in the world, such as: Tang Dynasty generals Luo Cheng, Xue Rengui and his son.
In addition, the white tiger was attracted by Taoism and deified, becoming the door god of various temples. southern rosefinch Suzaku can also be said to be a phoenix or black bird.
Suzaku is one of the four spirits.
Like the other three spirits, it comes from the stars and is the general name of the seven stars in the south: Well, Ghost, Willow, Star, Zhang, Yi, and Zhen.
When I think of it, it's Suzaku.
Zhu is red, like fire, and the south belongs to fire, so it is called Phoenix.
It also has the property of being reincarnated from the fire, just like the phoenix in the West, so it is also called the Fire Phoenix.
According to records in ancient books, the phoenix is a beautiful bird.
It is the king of birds with its singing voice and demeanor.
It can bring auspiciousness to the world.
At the same time, it also has the characteristics that it will not live in unless it is a parasol tree, it will not eat anything that is not a bamboo tree, and it will not eat anything that is not a bamboo tree.
Liquan does not drink the special spirituality, and because it is the growth of feather insects, it is the same as the growth of scale insects.
Dragons gradually became a pair in legends.
One has many changes and the other has beautiful virtues, and they have become a complementary pair in folk customs.
Moreover, because the dragon symbolizes the sun, and the phoenix and phoenix, which are divided into yin and yang, are the male ones, The female phoenix gradually became the representative of pure yin after facing the dragon.
There are many original forms of the phoenix, such as golden pheasant, peacock, eagle, swan, black bird, swallow, etc.
It is also said that it was transformed into the Buddhist roc Garuda.
The phoenix mentioned in the Phoenix myth has the head of a chicken, the chin of a swallow, the neck of a snake, the tail of a fish, and has five-color patterns.
There are five kinds of phoenixes, divided by color: red is the phoenix, green is the phoenix, white is the swan, and there are yellow and purple.
The saying of the black bird is: the destiny black bird descends to give birth to Shang, and its Yin earth shines brightly.
The ancient emperor ordered Wutang and Zhengyu to be in all directions.
Among them, the descendants of the Yin and Shang Dynasties said that their ancestor Qi was born from Xuanniao and established the powerful Shang Dynasty.
Therefore, Xuanniao became the founder of merchants.
This period of history is also recorded in the records of the Huling Continent: Yin Qi and his mother were called Jian Di, and they had the daughter of Rong Di.
They were the emperor's second concubine and they were bathing together.
They saw a black bird with its eggs, and Jian Di took them and swallowed them. , due to pregnancy and birth.
In addition to the Yin and Shang Dynasties, the Qin Dynasty during the Warring States Period, the Shizuo of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and the Shizuo of the Korean Silla Dynasty were also related to fairies swallowing black bird eggs.
Regardless of whether it is a black bird or a phoenix, following the development of Taoism, it was first transformed from a bird, or a peacock, or a pheasant, etc. into a half-human, half-bird fairy who taught the art of war to a completely human fairy. , all follow the development of Taoism.

In Beijing, there used to be three temples dedicated to Xuannv, called Jiutian Niangniang Temple and Xuannv Temple.
There are also Xuannv temples in the north and south.
Northern Xuanwu Xuanwu is a spiritual creature composed of a turtle and a snake.
The original meaning of Xuanwu is Xuanming, and the ancient sounds of Wu and Ming are connected.
Wu means black; Ming means yin.
Xuanming originally described turtle divination: the back of the turtle is black, and turtle divination is to ask the turtle to go to the underworld to ask the ancestors, bring the answer back, and show it to the world in the form of divination.
Therefore, the earliest Xuanwu was the turtle.
Later, the meaning of Xuan Ming continued to expand.
Turtles live in rivers, lakes and seas, so Xuan Ming became the water god; turtles live long, and Xuan Ming became a symbol of immortality; the original underworld was in the north, and the oracle bone divination of the Yin and Shang Dynasties meant that the divination must go north, so Xuan Ming became the god of water.
God of the North.
Like the other three spirits, Xuanwu is also formed from the twenty-eight constellations in the world: Dou, Niu, Nu, Xu, Danger, Room, and Wall.
People after ancient times have the following interpretations of Xuanwu.
Xuanwu means turtle.
It is recorded in the Records of Experience and Information that the former is a red bird, then the basalt is a turtle and a snake.
An additional note by Hong Xingzu: Xuanwu means turtle and snake.
It is located in the north, so it is called Xuan.
The body has scales and armor, so it is called Wu.
Xuanwu is the combination of snake and turtle, cross between turtle and snake.
But Xuanwu was promoted by later Taoist priests to become the great emperor of the north, "Emperor Zhenwu".
It is different from the other three spirits.
The other Qinglong and Baihu only became the door gods of the mountain temple, while Zhuniao became Youtian Xuannv.
Xuanwu's status increased in the Song Dynasty and was personified.
This is inseparable from the fact that the emperors of the Song Dynasty added fuel to the flames.
During the prehistoric times, there were legends that Zhenwu, Tianpeng and others were the generals of heaven.
In the first year of Tianxi reign of Emperor Wei Zhenzong, something happened in the military camp.
It is recorded in the Records of Wisdom and Information: If a soldier in the camp saw a snake, the sergeant would build a Zhenwu Hall because of it.
In the leap month of the second year, a spring gushed down the side of the hall, and the water was inexhaustible.
People who were sick were healed by drinking more.
Zhenzong heard about this and issued an edict to build a temple on the spot and named it Xiangyuan.
Liuhun informed Tu Yun one by one about all the constellations related to the four sacred beasts of the Cod Spirit Continent, especially the northern Xuanwu.
Although the Buddhists and Taoists attributed everything to them, They didn't know that it was because of their greed that Tongtian could find the inheritor again.
Greed is supposed to be the inheritance of the Taotie lineage, but because of human greed, the greedy blood of the Taotie bloodline directly erodes the heart of every monk.
Human beings are living beings born of multiple desires.
Once a certain person in the body is If this ability is stimulated, greed will be infinitely magnified.
This is also the reason why Taotie chose humans as his successor.
Such a choice made by the Taotie Holy Beast can amplify their negative emotions infinitely, which has only benefits and no harm to the Taotie lineage.
Desire is the line with the strongest negative emotions.
As long as there are negative emotions, the Taotie line will be born.
Taotie has been said to be the incarnation of evil since ancient times.
He can lead the darkest demons in the demon world, and the demons in the demon world are also They all obey the Taotie Holy Beast.
It is recorded in ancient books that the most powerful god in the demon world is the incarnation of the Taotie Holy Beast.
Time passed slowly.
Ye Feng woke up first.
The first time he woke up, he looked at Tu Yun.
Seeing that Tu Yun was still unconscious, Ye Feng slowly looked up at Liu Zhongtai and Wu Qun and asked, "Is there anything wrong with him?"

Liu Zhongtai smiled slightly and said: "Now I can only say that there is no danger to his life.
As for the extent of his injuries, we will only know after he wakes up."
Ye Feng looked at Tu Yun and said, "Tu Yun almost lost his life because he helped me.
I am just a person who is about to die.
Why did he help me like this?
Is it because of the ethereal power of blood in my body?"
"It is illusory to others.
Now you should be able to clearly perceive the unique power from Taotie bloodline.
Although your current bloodline power has not really been activated yet, Xiaoyun has helped you communicate with you about the unique power from Taotie bloodline.
The power of your bloodline is also because of this, your bloodline power can be perfectly grown, and it is also because of this, your bloodline power can be truly opened.
All this can only be done by Tu Yun after he wakes up.
All you need to do now is to calm down your mind.
You are still very weak and need to rest.
You must know that if Xiao Yun does not help you recover, your body will not be able to help you.
Even if you can dispel the flames from the flames of hatred, you cannot dispel the damage caused by the flames of hatred to your body.
Now your body has been restored by Xiaoyun's spiritual energy, and the rest you just need to continue to restore your body."
Liu Zhongtai looked at Ye Feng with a slight smile and said.
"I don't know all this.
From the moment Tu Yun helped me activate the power of my bloodline to clear the flames of hatred, I felt the desire from his heart.
It's just that the power of my Taotie bloodline is very weak.
I want to activate it.
It will take a long time, even with Tu Yun's help, it will still take a certain amount of time."
Ye Feng looked at Tu Yun and said calmly.
"Our original bloodline power was not even as pure as yours, wouldn't it still be opened by Xiaoyun?
The bloodline power may be difficult for others, but for Xiaoyun, as long as you have the bloodline power, nothing else will matter.
It's a problem, but if you don't have the power of blood, that's the most terrifying existence."
Liu Zhongtai still looked at Ye Feng with a smile and said.
When Liu Zhongtai said this, Ye Feng slowly turned around and looked at Liu Zhongtai.
After a long time, he said: "I, Ye Feng, have been destined to be a lonely person since I was born.
It wasn't until my family was wiped out and hatred took over everything that I felt like I had a trace of hope."
A sense of belonging, but that feeling comes and goes quickly.
It wasn't until Tu Yun helped me exorcise the flames of hatred that I understood what the feeling of home is, what warmth is, and what friendship is.
It was my Ye Feng's luck to see Tu Yun in Xuelan Ancient City and even get his help.
Maybe it's just like Tu Yun said that the meeting of the two of us was to support each other, and we were a community in itself.
It was just that we were not separated for a long time.
From the first moment I saw Tu Yun in the Wu family hall, I knew that Tu Yun was not the same person.
Simple people.
Now that he has helped me unlock the power of my bloodline, in my heart he is the only person I can trust.
Our Taotie family never easily trusts or recognizes a person, but Tu Yun is the one who makes me People who trust and recognize him may be what Tu Yun said about God's will," Ye Feng recalled with a smile. aa2705221:
