Besides Nian beast, what other legendary ghosts will appear in the New Year?

Legend has it that besides Nian beast, there are ghosts that appear in the New Year. The legend of the New Year that we want to mention should be Nian beast at first, because Nian beast is a very fierce monster based on Nian beast, and it is still very old. It is said that Nian was a beast in Archaean times, with a fierce temperament. It especially likes to eat people, and generally lives in dense forests, but it doesn't appear often in 2000, so it only appears in 30 years.

Later, people suddenly discovered that Nian was afraid of the sound of firecrackers and candles, so every household would set off firecrackers and wear red clothes on New Year's Day to scare Nian away. That is to say, Nian never came again, and the custom of wearing red clothes to set off firecrackers on New Year's Day continued. Besides Nian, there is a monster named Xi, which is also a very fierce monster. It will appear on the last day of the twelfth lunar month, and even the kitchen god can't do anything about it. Later, there was a monster named Xi. Year? Our prodigy ruined the evening, so people called the last day of the twelfth lunar month New Year's Eve.

There is also a ghost called Chong, which is also fierce. Legend has it that chong is black and white, and he likes to come out to harm people on New Year's Eve. It will touch its head when the child sleeps, and the child will have a fever because of it, which is particularly difficult to treat, and even if it is cured, it will become stupid. So people will give their children a string of copper coins on New Year's Eve, hoping to suppress worship and let them try not to sleep that night.

These are ghosts that will appear during the Spring Festival. Although these are only feudal superstitions, these traditions have been preserved to this day and become something that every family should do during the New Year. It seems that only by doing this can we feel the taste of the Chinese New Year, which is the real Chinese New Year.
