What are the legends about tigers in foreign/China myths?

There are five famous tiger lords among the people.

First, Emperor Baosheng rode general Hei Hu.

Tiger general

Legend has it that Wu Kun, the emperor of Baosheng, collected herbs on the mountain before becoming immortal. When he met a white-fronted golden-eyed tiger with a sore throat from eating people, he prayed for help before the emperor.

At first, Emperor Baosheng didn't want to cure it, but he couldn't bear to see its pain, so he poured it with water and turned it into his throat, saving the tiger's life. The tiger was grateful and changed from evil to good, becoming the rider of the emperor. After Emperor Baosheng became immortal, he named the tiger General Hei Hu. Now, there are many statues of General Hei Hu under the temple niche of Emperor Baosheng.

Second, Hu Jin, the first escort of Mazu.

Master Hu Jin of Mazu Fengtian Palace

At first, Hu Jin was just an ordinary mount under the landlord, but after that, he repeatedly created miracles. He first removed the foot monster that harmed the people and warned the people to avoid the flood. According to legend, he once saved the life of Emperor Jiaqing of the Qing Dynasty, and was named the "Tiger Champion" by Emperor Jiaqing, giving him two golden flowers on his head. The privileged idol was invited from the altar to worship.

Hu Jin still has a long way to go to become Mazu's first defender. It is said that Mazu Tempel was destroyed by floods in the Qing Dynasty, and Empress Mazu had to temporarily live in the land temple where Grandpa Hu Jin was located until the Fengtian Palace in Xingang was built. During the period of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, the land temple where Lord Hu Jin was located was demolished by the Japanese army to build barracks. Fengtian Palace thanked the land Lord and Lord Hu Jin for their kindness.

In Mazu Fengtian Palace, Hu Jin became the first guard under Mazu.

Marshal Hei Hu patrolling Wudang Mountain.

Hei Hu is touring the mountains.

According to legend, this Hei Hu on Wudang Mountain is a beast that overflows in the form of "Tianyi". He lives on the black rock by the Black Lake. When Emperor Zhenwu was teaching in Taiziyan, Wudang Mountain, he often protected his rock and brought him food to satisfy his hunger.

After Zhenwu gained the Tao, in order to repay Hei Hu's kindness, he named Hei Hu General of Wudang Mountain.

Shouldering the responsibility of protecting Zhenshan, it will patrol the mountain at night and drive away people with evil thoughts. He was honored as "God of Hei Hu" and "Marshal Hei Hu who visited Wudang Mountain". Under the rule of Ma Feng, there was a temple dedicated to it, named "Hei Hu templo mayor".

Fourth, Zhao Gongming, Tan Xuan and Hei Hu.

Tan Xuan Black Lake

It is recorded in Shenpu that Zhao Gongming went down the mountain to help the Shang Dynasty, and met Hei Hu at the foot of the mountain, while Hei Hu roared with a strong wind. There is a poem praising him:

Roaring out of the mountain, some heroes sweat a little; Paws are as bold as hooks, and Kouga is as fierce as a sword. Before the action, the wind comes first, and the wind is eager to extricate itself; Any group of people should dare not take it and dare to look at it.

Zhao Gongming was worried that he didn't have a mount. When he saw such a tiger in heaven, he immediately subdued it and rode it to do business, just like a god descending to the earth.

After Zhao Gongming was named the God of Wealth, the tiger became the mysterious altar Hei Hu, and together with the brave, the golden toad and the golden peacock, it became the four blessed beasts of the Governor's House. As the saying goes, Hei Hu does not seek the God of Wealth when he enters the door. Hei Hu, a mysterious altar, is one of the partial wealth gods of the governor's treasury, and can make a fortune. The so-called Hei Hu showed his true colors, swept away evil spirits, soared on all fours, and made a lot of money.

Five, Zhang Tianshi boarded the Ai Hu.

Shi Tian is riding a Ai Hu.

There is an old saying: "On the afternoon of May 5th, Shi Tian rode Ai Hu. The sky is blue on the red mouth, and all insects return to the underworld. "

It is said that during the Dragon Boat Festival in May, almost every household hangs a tiger statue of Zhang Tianshi to ward off evil spirits.

It turns out that Ai Hu is not a real tiger, but a tiger-shaped ornament made of wormwood at noon, which can drive away poisonous insects and keep peace.

In ancient Dragon Boat Festival, there were customs of painting Zhang Tianshi, drinking calamus and wearing Ai Hu. Folk combined the three together, creating a story of Zhang Tianshi riding on Ai Hu, which demonized Park Jian, and Ai Hu became Zhang Tianshi's mount.

According to legend, a long time ago, there lived a "monster of Qingcheng Mountain", which often harmed the people. Zhang Tianshi pulled out a handful of wormwood and turned it into a tiger. He picked another calamus and turned it into a sword. Riding a tiger of wormwood and holding the sword of calamus to subdue the demon, the demon could not resist being beaten back to its original shape in a short time, and turned out to be a fart bug and turned into an elf.

In addition to the tiger owner, there are five tiger gods in the myth. Tigers roar all over the world and are awesome in all directions.
