#Chinese Monster Story Club##山魈竟然就是年兽 #
Mandrill, the guardian deity of the mountain, is also a pure monster. Mandrill, looks like a baboon, harmless to humans and animals, and a foodie who loves shrimp and crabs, but is extremely vindictive.
Once you offend the mandrill, don't let the mandrill know your name, otherwise you will feel the painful revenge of thousands of miles of pursuit.
Mandrills are mountain gods, and in ancient times, by worshipping mandrills, they could keep the road ahead.
So how did a mandrill become a beast?
Mandrills originated in the south, and on the first day of the new year, everyone burned cannon bamboo to drive away mandrills, and later the mandrill culture spread to the north and became the local New Year beast.
Among them, firecrackers are the use of burning bamboo to produce explosions, and later the mandrill culture spread to the north, because there are fewer bamboos in the north, so it is made of explosives, now known as firecrackers.
Later, the New Year culture of driving away New Year beasts in the north spread in turn to the south.
This is the mandrill, the predecessor of the Nian Beast.
