YINGZHAO

Yingzhao is the god of Huaijiang mountain, also the god that oversees Pingpu of the natural grassland under the Shiwei Emperor's rule. Yingzhao has a human face, horse body, tiger zebra, has wings on his back, so he can fly in the air and travel the world. Yingzhao has participated in hundreds of battles against evil gods and has been one of the patron of peace for generations. Yingzhao is also a friend of the flower god.

Yingzhao is responsible for taking care of the group of divine beasts called Tulu. Although it looks like a sheep and has four horns, it is a man-eating beast. Yingzhao responsible for taking care of the group of sacred beasts named Tulu did not allow them to eat people.

Yingzhao is also responsible for guarding the group of sacred birds named Qinyuan , and they are not allowed to eat people, wound people or other animals.

Yingzhao is also responsible for looking after tree birds with six heads, as well as dragons, serpents , leopards , and various plants and animals whose names are unclear.

Yingzhao participated in the war of conquering the evil gods. It was the marvelous achievement made by the later generations of Yu when he killed the nine evil spirits, and we will always remember it.

When Emperor Shun, Yu was ordered to punish Xiangliu, a servant of GongGong (ancient water god). It is a giant nine-headed flying snake that can eat nine mountains at once. XiangLiu took over west of Yongzhou and killed the people. In this way, Yingzhao participated in the campaign of encirclement and suppression of Xiangliu and made a great contribution.

After Xiangliu died. Xiangliu's corpse decomposed, smelling in the country, smelling in the sky, it is inevitable, and this kind of fumigation and infection can easily lead to epidemic disease, which is very scary! Xiang Liu 's body rotted too fast because he was full of fat and was forced by the sun to make it so stinky. Therefore, Yingzhao negotiated with the Frost God, Snow God, etc., to freeze a frost and snow, solidify the corpse of the willow, and solve some difficulties. "After that, Yingzhao exhausted his power to bury the body of Xiangliu which was a thousand feet long and buried it hundreds of miles away. The place where the corpse of Xiangliu was buried was very high, and later generations built several platforms on it. One is the Terrace of the Emperor Ju , the other is the Terrace of Dan Zhu, and the Terrace of the Emperor Shun , enshrining their tablets for suppression.

At that time, it was only in the territory of Xiangliu within the Gonggong family (Water god) that XiangLiu's cruelty was known. It turns out that since Gonggongjulong's nephew became Gonggong, he called Xiangliu to stay and become his courtier.

XiangLiu hid himself, pretending to be kind and righteous. He helps the lean people, gives them food to eat by plundering and eating obese people. Half of that food is to feed himself. The remaining half of them were given to the skinny. In fact, he did not really pity the thin people, but wanted to fatten and swallow them. With this hypocrisy, he was able to gain fame from thin people and cover up the brutality inflicted on fat people.

Therefore, for decades, the distant man did not know the details of XiangLiu, claiming that he was just GongGong's servant.
