twelve and a half

There were many speculations about the whereabouts of the lower half of the twelve beast heads. One point of view was that as early as the end of Qianlong, the "water clock" no longer sprayed water. The Qing Palace might have separated the "human body" of the twelve beast heads from the "beast head". If the "human body" was made of copper, it might have been re-cast for other purposes. This might be the reason why the "human body" did not show up. Others believed that due to the destruction of war and time, as well as the decay of materials and man-made destruction, the lower body might no longer exist. There were also speculations that the lower half of his body might have been stolen or lost overseas during the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, but it was currently uncertain. The novel " Imperial Beast Soars " is equally exciting. Everyone is welcome to click and read it!

As for the number of people in the Twelve Clans, there was no unanimous answer. Some of the documents mentioned that there were 12 masters in the 12 caves, and one master in total, totaling 13 people. The other documents mentioned that there might be 13 people in the 12 caves, and one of the positions was empty. There were also some documents that mentioned that the Twelve Clans might have more members, including the Holy Children and the Holy Maidens. As the search results provided did not give a clear answer, I am unable to determine how many members there are in the Twelve Clans.
