1. At first, Taoist priests were dismissed as antiques because of the shape of the bun on their heads. That hairstyle is called "cow nose catching bun"! Similarly, the monk's bald head is called "bald donkey".
There is also a more authoritative saying: after Laozi was deified, the Taoist turned green, and his mount was a green cow. The head of Taoism is called "Laozi", riding a green cow through Hangu Pass. After he became a god, Qingniu accompanied him to become an immortal cow, and was later dubbed as being led by Laozi. When Laozi went through customs, he was called "Qingniu" by Taoism, so Taoist priests got the nickname "Niubi", and laymen usually came with it. Because the person who said this thought: cows are also fairy cows, but they are still animals. Just like a monk being called a "bald donkey", this is a bit disrespectful.

4, the Taoist hat, also known as the foaming at the mouth tube, has an edge in front and sticks up like a bull's nose.
In addition, there are some other speculations:
Cows are stubborn, so they often say who is a cow or something.
Cattle have big nostrils, that is to say, they have strong breath-'strong breath' and Taoist priests.
This is very legendary in the past history of China. What Kunlun sent wu-tang clan?
Emei Sect is a Taoist priest with high martial arts.
They are also very strong, so they are arrogant and rude, so they are called Taoist "bull noses"! "(Personally: nonsense)
6. There is also a legend that the Taoist priest is called Zhang Sanfeng, and Zhang Sanfeng is extremely ugly, with his nose facing the sky like a bull's nose, so he is called "bull's nose" (personal: nonsense).
