The Han Dynasty's " Shen Yi Jing " records: "There is a beast in the south... It is called biting iron." Jin Guo Pu's note on "Erya·Shi Beast" says: "It looks like a bear, with a small head, weak feet, and black and white mottled hair." "It can lick copper, iron and bamboo bones." According to legend, in ancient times, Chi You, the god of war, and his iron-eating beast competed in the Central Plains and fought against the two emperors of Yan and Huang, but were ultimately defeated by Zhuolu. You guessed it right, the iron-eating beast mentioned here is the current national treasure giant panda. It's just that Chi You never expected that the "ferocious beast" that accompanied him on the battlefield would now transform into a peace messenger and become a "cute beast" that conquered the world by being cute.
