Why are the divine beasts afraid of Bai Ze, and what kind of divine beast is Bai Ze

The divine beast was afraid of Bai Ze.

The reason is that according to the ancient book "Yun Ji Seven Signatures Xuanyuan Benji", the Yellow Emperor.

On the coast of the East China Sea, I met a wild beast, this beast looks like a sheep, but only one horn, it understands human language, knows people, knows the feelings of all things, its name is Bai Ze. Before the Yellow Emperor could speak, Bai Ze understood the meaning, since ancient times, there were 11,520 kinds of spirit as a thing, and the wandering soul was a changer, and the expulsion method was known. So the Yellow Emperor hurriedly begged the divine beast Bai Ze to draw an encyclopedia about ghosts.

It clearly records the name, characteristics and exorcism methods of each ghost or monster, and gives a copy to the people of Limin, which is the famous "Bai Zetu". Sure enough, since then, there have been fewer and fewer ghosts running rampant in the world. As a result, Bai Ze became a rui beast in ancient China to avoid evil, and people often painted Bai Ze's portraits on the wall, or embroidered on pillows to ward off evil spirits.

Even when the Son of Heaven travels and the army goes out, he often uses the Bai Ze flag to ensure safety.

The reason why the mythical beast was afraid of Bai Ze was because Bai Ze could understand human language, and he drew an encyclopedia about ghosts and monsters, "Bai Ze Tu", which recorded in detail the name, characteristics, and exorcism methods of each ghost or monster. Because of Bai Ze's wisdom and knowledge, people often embroider Bai Ze's portraits and walls on pillows to ward off evil spirits, and Bai Ze has also become a talisman for the Son of Heaven to travel and the army to go on expeditions. Because of these reasons, the divine beast developed a sense of awe for Bai Ze.

Bai ZeIt is a mythical beast in Chinese mythology and legend.

It knows the name, appearance and exorcism of all ghosts in the world, so from a very early age, it has been worshiped as a divine beast and auspicious rui to exorcise ghosts, and it was first recorded in Ge Hong's "Hug Puzi".

Especially in the Middle Ages, the respect for Bai Ze was even more grand.
