Xuanwu
Xuanwu is a kind of spiritual object composed of turtles and snakes. The original intention of Xuanwu is Xuan Ming, and the ancient sounds of Wu and Ming are interlinked. Wu means black; Ghost means yin. Xuan Ming described the tortoise divination at first: the tortoise's back is black, and the tortoise divination is to ask the tortoise to ask his ancestors in the underworld, bring back the answers and show them to the world in the form of divination. Therefore, the earliest Xuanwu is the tortoise. Since then, the meaning of Xuan Ming has been expanding. Turtles live in rivers, lakes and seas (including turtles), so Xuan Ming became a water god; The tortoise lives long, and Xuan Ming has become a symbol of immortality; The original underworld was in the north, and the Oracle divination of the Shang Dynasty meant "its divination must be directed northward", so Xuan Ming became the northern god again

And it is one of the four spirits, and of course it is also changed from the stars. Among the 28 stars, there are seven in the west: Kui, Lou, Stomach, Ang, Bi, Gou and Shen. Therefore, it is the representative of the west, and its whiteness is due to the west, which belongs to gold in the five elements and is white in color. So it is called white tiger not because it is white, but from the five elements.

The strong take the old and the weak, and they are afraid of beating orders, which is called gluttony." Song Shaobo's Record after Hearing: Volume 26: "At the beginning of Shao Shengchu, the ancestor was an official in Chang 'an Mansion, and he sold soup and cakes in front of the Han Gaozu Temple in Xicheng. He got a white jade, which was carved with clouds and dragons, and was built as a mountain in the sea, which was enough for gluttony and was a treasure of three generations."

Longsheng Jiuzi
Longsheng Jiuzi means Longsheng has nine sons, and none of them are Jackie Chan, which is different. The so-called "dragon gives birth to nine children" does not mean that the dragon happens to give birth to nine children. In the traditional culture of China, nine represents a lot and has a supreme position. Nine is an imaginary number and an expensive number, so it is used to describe the dragon son. There is a long-standing saying that a dragon has nine sons, but there has been no saying about which nine animals are, and it was not until the Ming Dynasty that various opinions appeared. In the Ming Dynasty, some scholars' notes, such as Lu Rong's Miscellaneous Notes on the Garden, Li Dongyang's Collection of Huailu Hall, Yang Shen's Collection of Ascending the Temple, Li Xu's Random Notes on the Old Man in the Temple, and Xu Yingqiu's Talking about Yunyun in Yuzhitang, all recorded the situation of the dragons, but they were not unified.
