Fengming Xiaoxiao

In ancient times, there existed the Phoenix, also known as the Phoenix Emperor. It was the well-deserved king of birds. It symbolized a beautiful character in the world. Legend has it that as long as it appears, the world will be auspicious and harmonious. "Shuowen Jiezi" records: "The image of a phoenix, a lin in front and a deer behind, a snake's head and a fish's tail, a dragon's text on a turtle's back, a swallow's jaw and a chicken's beak, all in five colors. Coming from the country of the oriental gentleman, he soared across the four seas, crossed Kunlun, drank from the mainstay, washed his feathers in the weak water, and stayed in the wind cave at dusk. Seeing it brings great peace to the world." Phoenix has a noble character, "It will not stop unless it is a parasol tree, it will not eat unless it is made of solid food, and it will not drink unless it is a sweet spring." According to "The Classic of Mountains and Seas·Illustrations", the phoenix has five kinds of character patterns on its body: "The first text says virtue, the wing text says shun, the back text says righteousness, the belly text says faith, and the bottom text says benevolence."
