They may come several times a year, or they may not come at all for several years. All the people in the country swept their doors to remember Chong Ming. For example, before the Chongming bird arrives, Chinese people either carve wood or make bronze statues.

If the image of this bird is placed in a bright household, then evil spirits and the like will naturally retreat. So now, people carve wooden statues, make bronze statues or paint images, so now they draw chickens on the door.

And "Han Feizi. "Shi Guo" said: "In the past, the Yellow Emperor joined the ghosts and gods on the Western Qin Mountains, drove an elephant and a chariot and a dragon, and they harmed each other. Yuan Ke said that Hua Fang is a phoenix, and phoenix is ??a sun bird, so "when you see it, there will be false fire" ”. "Pianya": "Bi Fang is also a sign of a fire bird." The phoenix is ??a god and a symbol of disaster. "Huainanzi." "In the time of Yao... the strong wind caused harm, and Yao sent Yi... to send the wind to Qingqiu." The strong wind is the great phoenix. "Huainanzi" "Wood produces Bi Fang" was influenced by the thought of the Five Elements, which means wood produces fire. Because Bi Fang is a fire bird, Bi Fang is used instead of fire, which does not mean that Bi Fang was born from wood.
