Xiezhi

Xiezhi (pronounced "shee-jur") is a creature from Chinese mythology that is said to be very smart and well-behaved. It is often depicted as a mix between a unicorn and a lion.

Xiezhi is known for its ability to tell right from wrong. It has a big horn on its forehead that it uses to point to the guilty party in a dispute. People in ancient China would often consult Xiezhi for help in legal cases or other important matters.

Xiezhi is also known for its bravery and loyalty. It is said to be able to defeat any enemy and protect its master at all costs.

In modern times, Xiezhi is sometimes used as a symbol in Chinese police stations and courts to represent the pursuit of justice and fairness.
