In Qishan, Fengxiang and other places, when some local people get married, whenever they meet a stone lion on the bridge, on the road or in front of the temple, they should cover their eyes and mouth with red paper or a red quilt, and some even wrap the lion's whole head tightly.

Since the stone lion is regarded as a god beast among the people in Xifu, why do you have to cover your eyes, mouth and Baotou on this festive wedding day?

Wang Peng, a member of Shaanxi Collectors Association and a staff member of Zhougong Temple Management Office, often participates in local wedding etiquette affairs. In his impression, blindfolding, covering your mouth and wrapping your head for the lion on the way to the wedding is a very important link. Now many people still adhere to this traditional wedding custom. Wang Peng explained that Xifu people think that stone lions are spiritual creatures. Those majestic stone lions are domineering and murderous. One is afraid that the stone lion will scare the bride, and the other is afraid that the stone lion will collide with the new family and break the harmony. On the wedding day, the marriage relationship has just been established, and the new family is as fragile as a newborn and cannot withstand the violent impact. Pay special attention to places where there are big stone lions on the roadside and at the door. Shishi has fierce eyes, a roaring mouth and a high head. Better cover it up. In this way, the wedding of Xifu people will be smooth and stable, and their married life will be happy and peaceful in the future.
