Dijiang

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Dijiang (帝 江) (also: Dihong ) is a mountain patron god in the ancient times of China, in the Tianshan Mountains. he has six feet and four wings, no face and understands song and dance. According to Chinese mythology, it causes chaos and confusion wherever it goes. In ancient documents, the character 江 (Jiang) is read like 鴻 (hong), so it is read Dihong and not Dijiang. One of the titles of the Yellow Emperor ( 黃帝 ) was also Dihong, as it was believed that this description corresponded to him.
