1. Description (实体描述)

Changcheng is an anomalous entity classified under the Chinese Classic ontological framework. It is fundamentally tied to the ecology of the ancient world described in the Classic of Mountains and Seas (specifically the Classic of Western Mountains).

• Physical Morphology: The entity possesses a distinctive human-like visage fused with the muscular, agile tail of a leopard.
• Metaphysical Essence: Changcheng is explicitly linked to the “Nine Virtues of Heaven” (天之九德). Ancient texts suggest that its presence is not merely physical but symbolic of cosmic order and divine structural integrity.

“There is a mountain called Luomu; a deity resides here named Changcheng. Its visage is that of a man, but its tail is that of a leopard.” — Classic of Western Mountains

2. Behavioral Logic (行为逻辑)

When the entity enters an active state, it adheres to the following arcane protocols:

1. Reality Anchoring: Any interaction with the entity must strictly adhere to the localized physical and occult laws dictated by the Chinese Classic database.
2. Perimeter Management: Personnel must maintain a minimum 警戒范围 (警戒半径) of 50 meters. Breaching this radius induces severe cognitive dissonance in observers, often manifesting as auditory hallucinations of archaic melodic tones.

3. Modern Anomaly Adaptation (现代异常收容改编)

Research Note [Archivist ID: 99-Omega]: The fusion between ancient myth and modern anomalous frameworks remains incomplete. Current satellite imagery of the theoretical Mount Luomu site yields only topographical anomalies consistent with a Class-III reality-bending localized field.

Proposed Containment Protocol:

• Containment: Permanent installation of a Class-B reality anchor at the coordinates associated with Mount Luomu.
• Interaction: Direct engagement is currently prohibited. Should the entity manifest in a post-industrial setting, observers are advised to remain within the 50-meter safety threshold and avoid direct eye contact with the entity’s ocular region.

Archivist Warning: If you witness a human-faced feline manifestation, do not attempt to record the “Nine Virtues” via digital media; the data corruption is instantaneous and irreparable.
