Who is the fox demon jade algae? What does it look like?

Da ji, the concubine who appeared beside the last king of the Shang Dynasty, said that she was a nine-tailed fox according to Qian Wen Zi of the Six Dynasties. This statement was affirmed by the mythical novel Romance of the Gods. She made up a story about a Kyubi no Youko fox that had been cultivated for thousands of years and disturbed Chaogang. At this point, Kyubi no Youko Fox became Uber and became the embodiment of seductive witchcraft that lured men.

In fact, the nine-tailed fox is a god beast, which is different from the wild fox that usually becomes a demon. In ancient Japan, the fox was regarded as the fishing god of Tsugaru Peninsula. In ancient Korean mythology, two dragon kings asked the emperor to send someone to shoot the fox. This reflects the struggle between the Korean Dragon King and the Fox Fairy for the position of Poseidon. So is China. According to Shandong Longkou Peng Wenxin? The article "Survey of Island Village Folk Culture" introduces: "Local fishermen generally believe in Uncle Fox Fairy and regard Fox Fairy as the patron saint of the sea. When the sea is stormy, pray and make a wish to Uncle Fox Fairy and get a blessing. After returning safely, go to the temple and make a wish to set off firecrackers. " According to the Records of Huangxian County, "The local people believed in the Sea Dragon King earlier, and the Fox Fairy took its place. The reason is that the fox spirit is the Kyubi no Youko fox. In the ancient mythology of China, the nine-tailed fox was the wife of Dayu, turned into a sea god, and was qualified to compete with the Dragon King and win. This is a natural thing, so in fact, among the earliest beasts, the nine-tailed fox was a water official, and was later replaced by a dragon.

As for Kyubi no Youko, the one who ruined his ancestors' reputation by disturbing the Chaogang was just practical. At that time, Nu Wa Niangniang watched the decline of Shang Dynasty and ordered her to come down to earth to change the dynasty as soon as possible, which implicated the people of Li and made them angry. As a result, all the responsibilities were borne by the nine-tailed fox alone, leaving a lasting stigma. Why bother?

When it comes to the nine-tailed fox, you have to talk about the surname Yuzao. In fact, Jade Algae is another name for da ji. After it was introduced into Japan, it was called "white-faced jujube". After the nine-tailed fox arrived in Japan, it became a beautiful woman named Yuzao, which bewitched the Japanese Emperor Bird Feather. Finally, when she was killed in a place called Nasuno, people thought the world was peaceful. From then on, the Japanese fox demon took Yuzao as her surname to commemorate her. At the end of the island of Japan, there is a legend that it is a "killing stone" to suppress jade algae.

Finally, it is unclear whether the moral of the nine-tailed fox is auspicious or fierce. Just the same beast, but different experiences. It may take hundreds of thousands of years before people forget some history and the nine-tailed fox can really see the light of day again.
