What's the difference between Kirin and dragon?

Difference: Yipin Guan's supplementary emblem, Kirin, shows that its position is second only to that of dragon.

Kirin is also referred to as "Kirin", commonly known as "four unlike". The benevolent beast and the auspicious beast in ancient legends are animals in ancient Chinese legends, and they are also called "four spirits" with phoenix, turtle and dragon.

Kirin, an animal, was created by mixing thoughts according to the way of thinking of China people. Judging from its external shape, it is characterized by moose body, oxtail, horseshoe shape (called "wolf's hoof" in history books), fish scale skin, horns with meat at the corners and yellow. This model is a new combination after dismembering many real animals. It has concentrated all the advantages of these precious animals, and built the unicorn, an imaginary beast, which fully embodies the concept of "Jimei" of China people.

"Kirin" takes "deer" as the radical. When the ancients coined the word, they clearly told people that Kirin evolved from deer, but it was by no means a deer, with more parts and equipment than deer. It is said that its body is like a raccoon, and it can also be written as an owl, which is called roe for short in ancient books; There is a cow's tail, a round head, but only one horn. Some say that Qi is a man and Lin is a woman, and their shapes are slightly different. But it is said that the beginning of Qijia is roughly like a deer. It was regarded as a god beast and a benevolent beast by the ancients. Its life span is very long, it can live for two thousand years. Can spit fire, sound like thunder.

Dragons and dragons are miraculous animals in China mythology, fickle, promoting sex and benefiting all things. It is said that it can be hidden and displayed, reaching the sky in the spring breeze and diving in the autumn wind. It can also cause clouds and rain. It was the leader of many scales, the head of the four spirits (dragon, phoenix, unicorn and turtle), and later became a symbol of imperial power. Emperors all claimed to be dragons, and their vessels were decorated with dragons. According to Shan Hai Jing, Xia Houqi, Ru Shou and Ju Mang all "rode the rain dragon".
