What are the gods and goddesses in classical Chinese mythology that are not of high status, but are powerful bodyguards?

As we all know, our Chinese civilization has a long history and a very deep cultural heritage, especially the mythological system is colorful and very interesting. Of course, the history is too long, too deep, but also produced a negative effect, too complex not easy to understand and record, many things handed down to modern times also lost the original style.

This is the case with mythology, and the Chinese mythological system is very rich and confusing. For example, in Chinese mythology, who is the highest-ranking deity? Many people will not be able to answer, Nai Hongjun from the novel, Pangu appeared too late, the Jade Emperor is even later, all of these underlying is relatively shallow, all can not be ranked.

One, Fuxi. Ancient China has the habit of worshiping ancestors as gods, and in ancient times ancestor worship was the top priority. In our ancestors of Chinese civilization, the highest status, is Fuxi. Ancient records of Fuxi as the creator of God than Pangu to be much earlier, the so-called no reason to chisel through the secret of the Qiankun, from Xihuang a painting time.

Of course, as the founder of Chinese civilization, Fu Xi's attributes are far greater than those of a god. Legend has it that Fuxi invented gossip, fishing and hunting, zither, text and so on, as the first of the three emperors of Fuxi, has always been the ancient emperor worship and veneration, especially the invention of the gossip and the Yi science, is the crystallization of the wisdom of Chinese civilization.

Two, Haotian God. The worship and belief in heaven is one of the oldest mythological beliefs in China. The emperor called himself the son of heaven, and we will often say in modern times ? Tian ah? ,? God? These words are the legacy of the belief in heaven. There is no one more honorable than the emperor, entrusted to the sky, so he is called God, the emperor of the sky.

Hao Tian God, the embodiment of the sky, the word God, the earliest refers to our ancient Chinese emperor, and the Western one, do not confuse. It is also the highest deity believed by Confucianism, and its influence is very far-reaching, so far the highest deity said by the folk is still ? The highest god in folklore is still the "God of Heaven". , the Jade Emperor is the image of Haotian God absorbed by Taoism.

Third, Di Jun. The ancient heavenly emperor recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, in addition to this, there is not much ancient records, is a mythological system that has been lost. Later generations are mostly confused with one of the five emperors, ?i?n ??c. Di Jun, i.e., the highest god in the sky, is also the ancestor of many tribal peoples.

Legend has it that Di Jun had two wives, one named Chang Xi and the other named Xi He. Di Jun was the father of the sun and the moon, and the supreme deity who created the world, by giving birth to the twelfth month with Chang Xi and the tenth day with Xi He. Di Jun belongs to another genealogy other than Yan Huang. Many flood novels treat Di Jun as the leader of the demon race, and this one is obviously just an adaptation of the novel.
