No reason provided.

Origin

Laozi is sometimes depicted in Taoist iconography as riding a blue ox. This is from a tale of Laozi riding this ox to the west to become a hermit.

Design

Qing Niuguai is intended to resemble Laozi with its bushy eyebrows, hair, and beard.[1] It has a yin-yang symbol between its horns. Its saddle resembles the Eight Trigrams Furnace and has constellations on it.[2] The saddle also features text; the first character is 大 dà meaning "great", while the second character is unable to be read due to the angle.

太上老君が乗物としたと言われる仙牛。下界に降りてきては多くの災いを引き起こしたとされる。

出身地：中国
セイギュウカイは太上老君の乗物獣であると言われる牛で、「青牛怪」と書かれる。ある時、太上老君が不在の際に下界に降りたセイギュウカイは、西域の大秦国にたどり着き、王とすりかわって宮廷を支配したと言われる。後に本物の王が見つかり、正体がばれたセイギュウカイは暴れ回り多くの死者を出したが、後に王が祈願した玄奘娘娘と太上老君の弟子の徐甲によって捕まり、太上老君の元へ連れていかれたと伝えられる。

Nomenclature

According to Kazuma Kaneko, the 怪 guài suffix is used when the ox is raging rather than calm.[1]
