《山海经·东山经》：「太山……有兽焉，其状如牛而白首，一目而蛇尾，其名曰蜚。行水则竭，行草则死，见则天下大疫。」
AI-assisted contemporary artwork, not a reconstruction of an ancient illustration.
On the Great Mount lives an ox-like beast with a white head, a single eye and a serpent's tail. Fei is the heaviest warning in the mountains and seas: waters dry up where it walks, grass dies where it steps, and its coming brings plague to the world. SYNREX reads it as the single point of failure — a one-eyed beast that drains every system it enters. It bears no malice, and that is the most frightening part: ruin is simply its default behavior.
Some things destroy everything without malice — they merely pass by. Learn to see the one-eyed beast in your life.
Where water dries for no reason and grass yellows for no cause, ask first what you imported that you should not have.
Textual source · 《山海經·東山經》
Fei is ox-like, with a white head, one eye, and a snake's tail. Three consequences follow it: water dries, vegetation dies, and epidemic disaster accompanies its appearance. Its strangeness extends beyond anatomy into the environment it passes through.
Compare it with Qing Geng's protection from epidemics or Fu Zhu's flood omen: the archive contains both protective and threatening beings. These are mythic relationships rather than explanations of real outbreaks. SYNREX's depletion motif is an artistic reading of the passage's consequences.
