The mountain color of "rhinoceros" is iron green, and it is like a silhouette hanging in the gorge against the blue sky.

Idioms and allusions

One is a historical idiom

"Wu Niu gasps for the moon" is an idiom. Wuniu refers to the buffalo in the area of Jianghuai. Wu buffalo thought it was the sun when they saw the moon, and they gasped for fear of the sun. It means to be afraid of something similar. It also refers to a hot summer day. This saying comes from Liu Yiqing's Shi Shuo Xin Yu · Yu of the Southern Song Dynasty: "man Fen is afraid of the wind. He sits in Emperor Wu of the Jin Dynasty, and the North window is made of glazed screen. It's really dense and sparse. The emperor laughs at the difficulty of struggling. He replied, "I'm still a cow in Wu, panting at the sight of the moon." This is a witty remark made by Emperor Wu of Jin Dynasty to ridicule a minister with rheumatism. Unexpectedly, it has become an idiom. Li Bai, a great poet of the Tang Dynasty, once wrote in his poem Ding Du Hu Ge: "when Wu Niu panted for the moon, what was the hardship of tugboat?" he sighed the hardship of the boatman.

It is a myth

Rhinoceros turned out to be a God General in the sky. Appointed by the Jade Emperor, rhinoceros conveyed the living standards to the lower world and asked people to "eat one meal and dress three times a day". It means paying attention to etiquette and eating less sweetness. When rhinoceros arrived at Huahua world, he was disturbed and spread the will of the Jade Emperor to "three meals a day and one dress", which completely reversed the meaning of the emperor of heaven. The emperor of heaven was so angry that he sent it to the fairyland. Because it misses the life in the heavenly palace, it looks up at the moon at night, which is the origin of rhinoceros looking at the moon.

There is also a legend

She lives with the cow. Hua laocai is a greedy devil. He has evil intentions when he sees that Yu Zhen is so beautiful.

One night, Hua laocai asked the housekeeper and the beater to tie up Yu Zhen, and was about to rush at the girl. Unexpectedly, an iron whip like ox tail hit Hua laocai in the face, and raised two sharp horns to poke him in the eyes. The old cow took the opportunity to bite off the rope of girl Yuzhen, knelt down and said: "fast, fast ride on my back!" It turned out that the old ox was a fairy. He ran towards the top of Lingxia mountain, and the beaters yelled and gathered around him. Run, run, run to the top of the hill, there is no place to run, the old cow told girl Yuzhen to stand on an ox horn, and girl Yuzhen flew to the sky by the ox horn. The old ox became a one horned stone rhinoceros. Yuzhen girl has been flying to the Moon Palace, from then on rhinoceros head up in the sky, miss the hostess. So there is the story of rhinoceros watching the moon.
