==Legend==
Shii is a yōkai originating from China, where it was depicted as a weasel-like creature said to be able to run like the wind, hurting people's faces and biting their limbs.
When the legend of Shii was adapted to Japan, it added that the Shii lives in the Suo and the Tsukushi Provinces and it mainly haunts cows. In the Wakayama Prefecture, Shii are said to be the same yōkai as Yama-Arashi, where they use their needle-like hair to frighten cows, so cattle owners would command their cattle to move forward by saying, "Shii shii," to warn that there is a Shii nearby.
