Four Gods

This really has to do with Chinese mythology..but I figured I might as well bring this up. As a Fushigi Yuugi fan, I am intersted in the background behinf the four gods - Genbu, Byakku(i think that's how u spell it), Suzaku, and Seiryu. It's really hard to find any info on this that isn't on a FY site. Do the four gods have any place in Japanese mythology and what religion worships them? I know it's a constalation thing, but there's probably more to it. Is there any thruth to the legend as well? Is that a real legend? If anyone has any idea, please tell me. Arigato.
