The ancient Swiss beast is magical. How many Swiss beasts still exist today?

In fact, the ancient Swiss beasts in China generally originated from ancient fairy tales. In fact, most of them don't exist, but represent a kind of worship of unknown things by human beings, not to mention whether they exist now. In ancient times, they did not exist in themselves. In fact, many Swiss animals are processed by people's imagination on the basis of real animals, such as Qinglong, Phoenix, Kirin, gluttony, etc., which actually do not exist. You can only give some examples of animals related to Swiss beasts.

Turtles should also be considered as one kind, but strictly speaking, in ancient history, Swiss animals were all processed and kneaded on the basis of turtles, such as dragon turtles and Xuanwu. In ancient times, turtles were treasures of town houses to ward off evil spirits, eliminate disasters and make money. From the perspective of geomantic omen, the protuberance of tortoise shell is radian, like a mirror, so tortoise shell can be used to eliminate evil. Moreover, turtles are longevity animals, so being included in the list of auspicious animals means health and longevity. Turtles and five elements belong to water, and raising turtles is beneficial to their family's wealth.

Crane, the ancients called crane a noble bird, with the highest quality. The pattern woven by the official uniforms of ancient officials is "crane". In myths and legends, cranes can live for thousands of years, so they are regarded as the embodiment of longevity and auspiciousness, ranking second only to phoenix, and they are often associated with pine trees, which is what we often say: "The cranes of the Millennium depend on the pines of the Millennium."

Deer were regarded as sacred objects in ancient times, and it was believed that deer could bring people good luck, happiness and longevity. People say that the birthday girl rides a sika deer. A long time ago, deer has become a beast in people's minds. In Shang dynasty, deer bones were used for divination, and there were also carved antlers for yin deficiency. During the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, the birds and beasts carved in this tomb were popular in Chu tombs, with real antlers on their heads, which formed the characteristics of Chu culture.

But in fact, the ancient Swiss animals in China are generally not ordinary animals, and they are all rendered and beautified to varying degrees in myths and legends. In fact, in modern times, these animals are not Swiss animals.
