Description
From the southern slopes of Mount Huai, one can gaze upon the radiant splendor of Mount Kunlun, its brilliance stretching for miles, exuding an awe-inspiring grandeur.
On Mount Kunlun, there exists a creature called the “Tuluo.” It resembles a sheep but has four horns and is known to devour humans. Another creature, known as the “Qinyuan,” looks like a bee but is as large as a mandarin duck. Its sting is lethal to birds and beasts, and it can wither trees with a mere touch of its venom.
King Mu of Zhou once had the fortune to visit Mount Kunlun. He toured its magnificent palaces, tasted various celestial herbs and delicacies, listened to sweet music performed by beautiful celestial maidens, and saw many wondrous mythical beasts.
When the celestial maidens presented gifts to King Mu, he refused but pointed to the mythical beasts in garden and asked, “May I take one of these extraordinary creatures back with me?” The celestial maidens replied, “The beings of Kunlun drink from the celestial moat and feed on celestial herbs. Even if you take them to the mortal realm, they would lose their form and abilities. It is better not to take them away, for if they transform, we cannot predict what calamities they might cause.”
Poetry
In foreign lands, it toils and spins,
Weaving cocoons, its work begins.
Unable to transform and soar,
It falls into the net once more.
