Fu De Zheng Shen (Hanzi=福德正神; pinyin=Fúdé zhèngshén; Hokkien:Hok Tek Ceng Sin, lit. Righteous God of Virtue and Blessing) is a god of prosperity in Chinese mythology. He is often considered the same as Tu Di Gong or the name was considered as an official title of the later, but actually both of them are different beings. As one of the oldest god by age, he is often considered as Hou Tu.
religious sect
Fu De Zheng Shen is depicted as a friendly, sitting old man with happy face and long white beard. Some Chinese temples do not distinguish him from Tu Di Gong, while the others clearly have different altars for them. The altar of Fu De Zheng Shen is always high above the ground while Tu Di Gong is parallel to the floor. He is also depicted wearing more luxurious clothes than the latter. While an altar to Tu Di Gong exists at gravesites, accompanied with his wife (Tu Di Po) and Hu Jiang Jun, Fu De is usually depicted alone and never has an altar in a graveyard. Furthermore, Tu Di Gong is a title for so many local cthonic deities that oversee a region, while there is one and only Fu De.
