Five hundred miles to the east of Huiji Mountain is Luwu Mountain, which has no flowers and trees, but is rich in metallic minerals and jade. The Sawagan Water originates from this mountain and flows southward into the Water. There is a beast in the water, the name is a cockroach, shaped like an ordinary eagle eagle, with long horns on its head, and its cry is like a baby crying, which can eat people.

It is also known as zuǎn carving. In 1957, archaeologists found a pure golden eagle-billed deer-shaped beast-shaped monster excavated from the xiongnu tomb in the late Warring States period in the village of Shenmu Nalin Gaotu in Shaanxi Province, which resembled the carvings of the Classic of Mountains and Seas in shape. This type of shape has the characteristics of a typical northern grassland culture. It is now in the second exhibition hall of Shaanxi History Museum.
This strange animal made of gold is called a monster because it is a collection of animals, with a body like a sheep, a mouth like an eagle, horns like a deer, a scorpion-shaped tail, and four hooves standing on a petal-shaped pedestal. If you look closely, you will find that the two corners of the monster are composed of 16 small birds with two bodies connected and opposite, and the scorpion-shaped tail is also the appearance of a small bird. Therefore, this little monster has seventeen small birds hidden on it, reflecting the wisdom and ingenuity of the craftsmen.
Based on the small hole in the chassis of the golden monster, scholars speculate that it may be a crown ornament on the hat of the Hun leader.

<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > legend of the carving:</h1>
The amount of food eaten by the eagle is particularly large, and it specializes in eating people, and the large mouth can swallow a person at a time. He often made the cries of babies at night, and some people heard them, thinking that the babies would go to inspect, so that they would be trapped in the trap of the carving, and the eagle would eat the people who came, which was really harmful. It often uses such despicable means to maim the people, and the people hate it so much that they think it is a fierce beast that brings disaster.
