Kylin  |  麒麟

Kylin is a deer-like creature that has the ability to distinguish between good and bad people. When it finds a person with a pure heart, the Kylin would bow to them. So when a Kylin appears, people in ancient China believed that there were sages (圣人)  nearby.

传说中，麒麟是正义的动物，它能辨善恶，只对心灵纯洁的人鞠躬。因此，古人相信，凡麒麟现身，附近必有圣人。
