It is mostly arranged in front of the statue of the Buddha and Bodhisattva sitting on the knees or sitting with his feet crossed. During the Ming and Qing dynasties, the dragon-shaped ornament in the middle of the collar under the neck of the stone lion or bronze lion is also the image of the fox, which makes the traditional Chinese door lion guarding the gate more majestic!
Baxia: Baxia, also known as the turtle, resembles a turtle, is the sixth, good weight in life, infinite strength, the turtle under the stele is its remains, the legend is that the ancient times often carry the three mountains and five mountains, in the rivers, lakes and seas!
Later, Dayu subdued it when he controlled the water, and it obeyed Dayu's command, pushed the mountain and dug ditches, dredged all over the river, and made a contribution to water control. The flood was subdued, and Dayu was worried that the Baxia would be wild everywhere, so he moved the extra-large stone tablet that stood up to the sky and the earth, and engraved the deeds of the Baxia to control the water, and called the Baxia to carry it, and the heavy stone tablet pressed it so much that it couldn't walk casually!
Baxia and turtles are very similar, but there are differences when you look closely, Baxia has a row of teeth, while turtles do not, and there are also differences in the number and shape of the carapace on the dorsal armor of Baxia and turtles. Baxia, also known as the stone turtle, is a symbol of longevity and auspiciousness!
It always struggled to move forward with its head held high, and its four legs were desperately supported, struggling to move forward, but it could not move its steps.

In addition, its image is majestic, and in addition to decorating the prison door, the prisoner also crouches on both sides of the lobby of the official office. Whenever the chief of the yamen sits in the court, the upper end of the chief executive's title plate and the silent avoidance card has its image, and it is eyeing the tiger, inspecting and watching, and maintaining the solemn and righteous atmosphere of the court!

It is willing to turn into a pattern Wenlong to set off these literary treasures handed down from generation to generation, and decorate the stele pedestal more elegantly and beautifully. They coil around each other, and they seem to be slowly wriggling, and they are even more spectacular when they match the dominance of the base!
Kiss: Kiss: Kiss, also known as owl tail, owl kiss, dragon-shaped spine swallowing beast, is Lao Jiu, wide mouth and thick noise, easy to swallow in life, the curly tail dragon head at both ends of the temple ridge is its posthumous image.

"Tang Hui important eyes, after the disaster of the Liang Palace of the Han Dynasty, Yue Wu said, 'There are fish in the sea, the tail is like an owl, and the torrent is rain', so he made it like the tail, in order to be disgusted with the fire!"
"Yuqiu" is the predecessor of the cockroach kiss, the cheek kiss is water-based, and it is used as a thing to suppress evil to avoid fire, in fact, there are many versions of Longsheng Jiuzi, all of which have been adapted by people in the folk, and the purpose is to promote goodness!
Nine different animals are used in various places in the folk, and in the five industries of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, each industry has these nine kinds of animals, and even in religion it is a common thing!

For thousands of years, this has become a tradition and symbol of China, and the legends and stories of these supernatural beasts are everywhere, and there are different versions, which has never led to any scholar to come forward to prove which is the only correct version!
It's like a lot of things we're seeing now, since that war, there are very few cultivators in the world, let alone monsters who have attained enlightenment, and the cause of this problem is destruction!
The aura that was conducive to cultivation at the beginning was baptized by artillery fire and destroyed by thought, and gradually there was no room for existence, and many powerful spaces were cut off, just like the meson space, although it was parallel to our space, but it could not be seen!
But today's scholars regard these as natural phenomena, which have become inexplicable phenomena called natural phenomena, inexplicable animals are called foolish fictions, and unexplained visions are called planetary changes, in fact, even if they are far-fetched explanations, they cannot cover up the truth of history!
Many historical legends are now defined as myths by ignorant people, but they were real at that time, and not false and non-existent, as it is said now!
There are a lot of place names, beasts and other strange things mentioned in the ancient Chinese Mountains and Seas, which have been recognized by scholars for thousands of years as a mythical story of strange power and chaos, but with the historical truth being solved!
One after another, the slap in the face happened, and the places and beasts mentioned in the books that were originally just called strange forces and gods have prototypes, and there is even strong evidence, and the books that were once looked down upon by the idiots in the West have now become a map of the world!
As a result, more and more Westerners with ulterior motives come to China under various pretexts to discuss and study, in fact, in order to obtain the essence of Chinese knowledge, but they don't know that it is impossible for a species like themselves to understand the broad and profound culture of China!
