People in the architectural paintings, carvings, clothing embroidery and other carriers on the common "dragon play with the pearl" (there is a "single dragon play with the pearl", "two dragons playing pearls", etc.) pattern. A friend asked: what is "dragon pearl"? Where does "dragon pearl" come from? "Dragon playing pearls" and what is the matter?
Dragon beads are beads related to dragons. "The pearl of a thousand pieces of gold must be in the nine abysses and under the jaw of the black dragon." That's what the Zhuangzi says. Bei Ya also says "the dragon pearl is in the jaw". The Book of Description of Dissimilarities says, "Wherever there is a dragon pearl, the dragon spits out ...... a proverb of the Yue people says, 'It is better to plant a thousand mu of wood slaves than a dragon pearl.'" The above statement tells two meanings: one is that the dragon pearl is often hidden in the dragon's mouth, the appropriate time, the dragon will spit it out; two is that the dragon pearl's value is very high, with the folk proverb, that is, to get a dragon pearl, is better than planting a thousand acres of mandarin oranges.
So, where does the dragon pearl come from? Why do dragons play beads? We know that the beads, is some mollusks in the water, in certain external conditions under the stimulation of their shells and the formation of the round particles of the secretion, because of its bright luster and is loved by the people, and therefore is called pearl. Since the animals in the water can give birth to beads, as the water tribe of the dragon, naturally, should also have a pearl born date this should be the dragon pearl myth produced a basic idea.
But things don't seem to be that simple. The dragon is a vague collection of divine objects, the collection of objects are fish, crocodiles, snakes, pigs, horses, cows, as well as thunder and lightning, clouds, rainbows and so on. Of these, crocodiles and snakes are oviparous. The eggs are round, or one might say granular, particles much larger than pearls. So, the ancients will not crocodile eggs snake eggs as a kind of "pearl"? The answer is yes. Ancient people can crocodile snake as the main collection of objects, its eggs will not be ignored; for crocodiles and snakes, the significance of the egg is significant, is the source of life, there are eggs will have crocodile, snake, and then there is the dragon. Therefore, the egg is completely in the identity of the "bead" into the life of the dragon. Then, the dragon bead is the dragon egg; dragon play bead, in fact, is the dragon play "egg", is the dragon this divine creature, the care of life, caress and respect. Which embodies and expresses the ancient people of a "life consciousness", that is, to the vicissitudes of life phenomenon of knowledge, understanding and play.
The folk legend of swallowing a dragon provides a footnote to our view: a young man cut the grass (or water) to get a pearl, this pearl into the rice jar to rise rice, put into the money cupboard to generate money. A rich man knew, brought people to rob the beads. The teenager in a hurry will bead into the mouth, but accidentally swallowed. Then thirsty for drinking, tank water to drink dry, and go to drink river water, river water. Drinking, the head emerged from the horns, eyes bulging outward, the body became scales and jujube into a dragon. Such a legend is widely spread in Sichuan, Zhejiang, Guangdong and other places, from which reveals the "pearl" precious, as well as beads and the dragon life depends on the relationship.
The sun is another part of our understanding of beads. We see some of the dragons playing with the pearl pattern, especially those two dragons playing with the pearl pattern, the beads have flames rising, clearly a "fire pearl" or "fireball"; below is the sea, can be understood as a ball of fire jumping out of the sea. In people's vision and concept, can be called "fireball", the sun can be ranked first. Then, obviously, the fireball out of the sea is also the sun out of the sea. Since the sun out of the sea, why the dragon to "play" it? Here to introduce the ancients in the eyes of the four gods: the east of the green dragon, the west of the white tiger, the south of the vermilion bird, the north of the Xuanwu. The sun rises from the east, and the dragon represents the gods of the east. In this way, it seems that the dragon playing with the pearl has the meaning of sun worship, it should be the intermingling of sun worship and dragon worship.
The dragon is divided into male and female, which is the reason why there are more patterns of two dragons playing beads. If the beads for the egg solution, that is, both parents *** with the care, caress their children; if the beads for the sun solution, that is, male and female two dragons *** to meet the rising sun, so that the brilliant sunshine on the earth. Moreover, the two dragons symmetrical, long curved dragon body, bead shape round, in the composition also has a sense of beauty.
Legend of the Dragon--Wulong:
Longtan Fort, under Shaohua Mountain, originally had only about ten families. The village lived: a family surnamed Liu, father and daughter, by doing selling tofu for a living. The daughter's name was Zhu Feng, and she was very handsome. One day, Zhu Feng went to fetch water, and a small black snake came up from the hook. She caught the little black snake and put it on the well platform, saying, "It's pitiful, let it go!" The little black snake nodded to her and turned around and scurried into the well.
Zhufeng was just entering the house when she heard someone calling her from behind. Turning around, she saw that it was a beautiful young man in his twenties. The boy pulled Zhu Feng's hand, put a round bead in her hand, said: "I am the Weihe Dragon King's fifth prince, just now in the dragon pool play swimming, accidentally bumped into your hook on the hook can not break free, thank you big sister to save your life. This is a dragon pearl, you put it in the water tank, you do not have to carry water every day. In the future, if there are any difficulties, big sister just say a word." Said, suddenly disappeared. Zhu Feng chased out the door, only to see a cloud of white mist at the mouth of the well, and heard the well water clatter a few times. She felt like she was in a dream, and then looked at her hand, it was clearly a precious pearl. Into the house, she will be the dragon pearl to the water urn a throw, wow date, splash splash, flooded with a urn full of water, taste a mouthful, than that well water is also sweet, bead phoenix know is a treasure, to no one did not tell, even her pro big also hid. Just often think of Oolong, every day to go to the well platform to pick a load of water, secretly to the well to see a few eyes.
Four or five miles from Longtan Fort, the Sun Family Fort is home to a family of wealthy Yin Lixian. When Zhu Feng's mom died, Liu Laohan had no money for burial, and borrowed ten taels of silver from Yin. The days are poor, can not afford to pay, but often send some tofu to the Yin family, as a full payment of interest. This ten taels of silver Yin Zaidong also do not call for, happy to eat all year round tofu does not spend money to buy.
Zhu Feng girl a year older, more and more out of fashion. The first thing you need to do is to get your hands on some of the most popular products and services in the world, and you'll be able to do it all in one place. The first is to hire a good matchmaker, to Zhu Feng matchmaking under the bride price to come. The first time I saw this, I was so happy to see you, and I'm so happy to see you.
When Yin Zaidong found out, he rolled his eyes and scolded: "The old man is shameless, and he owes 10 taels of silver for more than 10 years. Hmph! Even with the interest of the grain silver hundred two, three days to hand over what said not to say, not to hand over the silver date humph!" He narrowed his eyes with a sneer: "Called the pearl phoenix girl to top the account!" The words reached Liu Laohan's ears, and he was also out of ideas. Zhu Feng just climbed on the edge of the kang crying, left and right thinking no way "until midnight she was asleep, ran to the well platform, teeth clenched, heart a cross, shouted:" Mom, children with you to come!" The eyes closed, jumped into the well.
Zhufeng only felt dizzy, like flying in the clouds. Suddenly, I heard someone shouting by my ears, "Zhu Feng, sister Zhu Feng!" Slowly opening her eyes, she realized that she had not fallen into the water, but was lying on Wulong's arm. "Brother Wulong!" Like seeing her relatives, she cried out in Wulong's arms. Wulong advised her, "Zhu Feng, I know all about you, don't be sad. The dog Zaodong for the rich and unkind, heavenly justice is hard to tolerate, look at me to clean up this old dog "...... I will send you back!" Zhu Feng refused, he was in her ear a burst of whispering, said Zhu Feng with tears with a smile, nodded again and again.
Listened to Zhu Feng cast well, the townspeople played torches down the well to save people. Wulong saw someone down, whispered to Zhu Feng, "Good sister, I do not send you." With both hands, he lifted up Zhu Feng. The people who came down the well touched Zhufeng and hurriedly tied a rope and rescued her.
Late at night, Zhu Feng learned her and Oolong's story from beginning to end to her father, and the old man was secretly surprised to hear it, but half-convinced. When Zhu Feng fishes out the dragon pearl from the urn, the old man sees that it is really not a worldly object, and then he believes Zhu Feng's words. The news that Zhu Feng jumped into the well and was saved reached Yin Lixian's ears, and the old thief stroked his rat whiskers and laughed: "Hey, it's obvious that the heavens are working for good. I Yin someone's family wealth ten thousand slam, gold and silver full of boxes, and then there is such a beauty a few, can really ...... ah, hey ......" thief eyes a turn, instructed the subordinates to split up to prepare to go. Early the next morning, the old thief with a group of houseguests towards the bead phoenix home to run. Going halfway, a gust of wind rolled sand and rocks blowing the sky dark, brought the gift of wealth early scraped out of sight, Yin thief even with a horse tumbled to the ground. After the gale, the old thief looked, although the gift is empty, people and horses are all in, rubbed the nose of the fall was crooked, with a group of homes, waving sticks and sticks, went straight to Liu Laohan's home to rob the bead phoenix.
Wulong see the old thief three times, still do not know to change, to be the old thief rushed to the well platform, will show the real shape, the mouth of the dragon beads, spraying a clear spring. A time of lightning and thunder, the waves, Yin thief gang crying ghost howling, rolling with the waves, washed into the Wei Shui River, fed the fish and turtles. After a while the clouds dissipated, the sky was full of sunshine, the clouds danced up a black dragon, the dragon sat on the back of the pearl phoenix girl. When he reached the top of the mountain, the dragon lay down to rest, and Zhu Feng waved goodbye to his father and the townspeople.
From then on, people called this village Longquan Village, and later changed to Longtan Fort, the dragon resting on the hill also named as Wu Long Mountain, the ages, are called five dragon mountain.

A long, long time ago, on the bank of Campsis Creek in northern Zhejiang Province, there lived a hard-working and kind-hearted young couple. The wife was pregnant for a year and gave birth to a strange child, resembling a man but not a man, and resembling a snake but not a snake.
When the old patriarch found out about it, he was furious, biting off more than he could chew that it was ominous, and forcing the couple to jam the baby to death immediately.
A few days later, the wife got out of bed and went to the lotus pond to wash rice, and suddenly saw her son swimming from the lotus bushes to the stone port, asking his mother for milk. The mother always loved her son, so she picked him up and fed him. In this way, she panned the rice three times a day and fed her son three times. One day, two days, and so on, for three hundred and sixty days, her son grew up, but he took on the appearance of a dragon.
The news reached the ears of the old patriarch, who, knowing that the strange creature had grown up instead of being stuck, was so enraged that he came up with a poisonous plan to slaughter it.
One day at noon, the old man hid a machete beside him and secretly hid in the bushes by the pool. When the woman was panning for rice, she saw a baby dragon swim ashore to ask for milk.
When the old man saw this, he raised his knife and cut, and the little dragon jumped into the lotus pond. But it was too late, the knife, the little dragon's tail cut down, all of a sudden blood dripping. It just happened to stop a beautiful big butterfly in the pool, the butterfly saw the little dragon victimized for no reason, no tail, the heart is very sympathetic, immediately flew over to the body with their own body to catch on its tail, and then turned into a beautiful dragon tail.
Just at this time, the wind was strong, dark clouds rolled, full of lotus flower petals have been swirling up, that dragon all of a sudden grew to more than ten feet long, suddenly leaped up from the pool, the body inserted full of lotus flower petals, straight to the sky to soar away.
The old man, when he saw the momentum, was so frightened that he fainted and died. As soon as she saw her son flying into the clouds, Xiao Long's mother, with tears in her eyes, called Xiao Long three times, but Xiao Long had already flown away without a trace
Since then, whenever there was a drought on both sides of the Camas River, Xiao Long would fly in to bring down the clouds and spread the rain, so that the townspeople could have a good harvest. In order to thank it, the people around Changxing used colored cloth to make lotus petal dragon scales and butterfly dragon tails, making the famous "hundred-leaf dragon" in Changxing, and every year in the Spring Festival, people would dance the dragon to commemorate and celebrate the occasion.

Shenxuan stage, the world rumor Erlang God with a sword chase Jianlong through this, so the name. (Ming, Cao Xue * "Record of famous places in Sichuan" Volume II four)
Erlang, Li Bing son. Zhu Zi Class Volume 3: "Shu irrigation mouth Erlang Temple, when it is due to Li Bing chiseling away from the pile of meritorious temples, now many spirits and monsters, is his second son ...... " (according to Li Bing in the "Erlang" name has been seen earlier. The name of "Erlang" has been seen in this book. About Erlang Shen words, ancient books do not contain, only in recent accounts.) Dujiangyan Gong Xiaozhuan" cloud: "Erlang for Li Bing Zhongzi, like hunting, and his friends seven people chopped auger. And pretend to decorate beautiful women, on the wedding sin scales, to enter the ancestral temple to persuade wine." It is also recorded in Volume 5 of "Water Treatment by Li Gong's Father and Son" of "Irrigation Zhi Wen Zheng". There are many myths about Erlang in modern folklore, one of which is summarized here: the Qin king ordered Li Bing to be the governor of Shu County, and Erlang went to Shu with his father. At that time, there were many floods in Shu, Erlang was ordered by his father to look for the source of the flood, and thought of curing it. Erlang trekked through the mountains and water from fall to winter, and from winter to spring, but there was no news.

Legend of the Dragon - Sin Dragon and Sick Dragon:
The Year of the Dragon in the lunar calendar (Gengchen) and the year 2000 of the AD came together in a piece of time, which was counted as a once-in-a-thousand-year period, and so the Dragon became a particularly rare "Thousand Years". The "Dragon" has become a particularly rare "Millennium Dragon". Entrepreneurs and culturists have centered their efforts around the "dragon". On the whole, of course, the dragon is good, not good, how can we compare our nation, the country, the sons and daughters of the Yellow Emperor and the sons and daughters of China to the dragon? To be more detailed, the members of the dragon family can not be a good and cover up, here have to talk about dialectics, as on earth there are good people and bad people points, the dragon family also has a sin dragon, outlaw dragons, evil dragons, wreak havoc on the dragon. That is to say, good dragon, good dragon, auspicious dragon, loyal to the duty of the dragon, but also can not guarantee that the life of the world are not sores, not sick ah.
The good dragon and the evil dragon appeared at about the same time.
Back in the legendary era of the Nuwa clan, around the Central Plains, there was a black dragon that did wrong, which was killed by the Nuwa clan. In the time of Emperor Shun, nine evil dragons emerged from the Jiuyi Mountain area, and Emperor Shun came to Hunan from the far north to help the people get rid of these nine evil dragons. The Yellow River passes through the Dragon Gate. Near the Dragon Gate, there is a ditch where ten dragons were coiled in the ditch and climbed out from time to time to harm people and animals. The water-control hero Dayu, who was diligent and loved the people, passed by and saw the dragons being fierce, so he held a long bow and hit the divine arrows to kill these ten evil creatures one by one. It was also this water hero who locked the evil Taihu Dragon in the Dragon Cave at the bottom of the lake, and pressed a big iron pot on the mouth of the cave.
See, the mythological heroes dealt with the evil dragon by cutting it down without mercy.
Why is it necessary to cut it down? The heroes understood that: the evaluation of evil is a crime against goodness; only by getting rid of the evil dragon can the dragon's team be pure, and it can take up the heavy responsibility of providing rain and water for the well-being of all living beings.
Wu Mountain is famous for its Staggered Gorge and Dragon Beheading Platform. Legend has it that when Dayu guided the flood to this place, a dragon traveled the wrong waterway and was beheaded by Dayu's sword. Neglect of duty is no different from a sinful dragon.
The Dragon Beheading Platform, a warning platform.
The Dujiang Placebo in Sichuan is also famous. Dujiang Place is home to the Folong Guan, which honors a rather mythical and real-life character named Zao Li Bing. According to legend, during the Qin Dynasty, when Shu was plagued by floods, a dragon was causing harm to the people, forcing them to sacrifice their animals and even young children. Li Bing, the governor of Shu County, and his son Erlang, after investigation and research, developed a meticulous plan to capture the dragon. When the evil dragon entered the temple with the wind and rain to seize the sacrificial offerings, Li Bing's son Erlang led all the warriors to suddenly attack and fight against the evil dragon. Li Bing tied it with an iron chain and locked it in the deep pool under the stone pillar of the Dragon Watch. The water was not a problem in Shu.
There aren't too many guards like Li Bing.
Ma Shi Huang was a famous horse doctor in the era of the Yellow Emperor. Legend has it that a sick dragon came down from the sky with drooping ears and a big mouth, begging Ma Shi Huang to heal him. He used a copper needle to stab his lips, and served him with tonics. After a few days, the dragon's condition improved, and he nodded his head in thanks, and went away in the clouds.
The most widely circulated story is that of Sun Simiao, the king of medicine, who cured the dragon. It is said that Sun was fifty years old, one night, is under the lamp reading medical books, suddenly thunder and lightning, torrential rain poured. Someone knocked on the door, the king opened the door and saw that it was a thin old man wearing a yellow robe to seek medical treatment. The old man's clothes do not touch the water, once inside the house, the thunder stops the rain. The king of the medicine for his pulse, said: "This pulse like up like clouds and fog, down like the sea turned over the river, you are a dragon, right?" The old man sighed, "What a divine pulse!" The Medicine King said, "Your sickness is from eating, now your stomach is very hungry but you can't eat anything, right?" The dragon nodded again. The Medicine King said, "Show yourself the day after tomorrow." On the third day, the dragon came and passed straight through from the foot of the back mountain to the Medicine King's courtyard. The Medicine King gave the dragon a deep stab in the dragon's head, and gave the dragon a bucket of soup and medicine, and the dragon vomited and tossed about for a while, and then spent a few days recuperating in a cave, and got well, and flew away.
Today's gangrenous sores and lesions aren't exactly rare, and what a need there is for highly skilled contemporary Ma Shi Huang and contemporary Sun Simiao!
Legend of the Dragon - Snow Mountain Dragon:
There is a dragon pool on the top of the Great Snow Mountain. It is said that it always fulfills the requests of people who pray to it for rain or shine.
The old people said: back then, the Jianshangluo country a Lohan, often to the Dragon Pool of the Dragon King there to be a guest. Lohan was so powerful that he sat on his bed and flew away in the clouds. His disciple, Saya, hid under the bed, holding on to the foot of the bed, and followed his master. He had to wait until he reached the dragon's palace before he came out.
When Lohan's master and disciples arrived at the Dragon Palace, the Dragon King invited them to stay for dinner. The Dragon King brought out the heavenly nectar rice to entertain Lohan, but what was brought to Little Shamai was the ordinary rice of the human world.
After Lohan had eaten the nectar, he sat down to preach to the dragon king. The little monk went to the kitchen to wash the bowl of rice for his master. There were leftover grains of rice in the bowl, and it smelled good. The little monk thought, "Why didn't the food I just ate smell good at all? Oh, you, the Dragon King, are looking down on me. I'm going to kill you and become the Dragon King myself.
While the little shaman was thinking like this, the dragon king was already feeling a terrible pain in his head. When Lohan finished his sermon, the Dragon King apologized again and again and asked for forgiveness. Shamiya still refused, and after returning to the monastery, he made a vow to fulfill this wish.
That night, the young Shayi died, turned into a dragon, rose up in the air, flew to the dragon pool on the top of the snowy mountain, and the dragon king fought fiercely, and finally killed the dragon king, and lived in the dragon palace, and gave orders, and took all of the dragon king's original subordinates under his own jurisdiction.
Shaman was not yet satisfied. He thought to himself, "The Dragon King won't give me the nectar of heaven to eat. Your master is also aware of this, why doesn't he open his mouth as well? So, blaming even his master, he blew a fierce wind and uprooted a succession of trees, trying to smash his master's temple.
At this time, King Jagatsekhar came to know about it, and came to ask about it. Rohan told King Jagatsekhar exactly what had happened. King Jagat Sekhar then gave Shamaraja a special temple under the snowy mountain and built a stupa, which was about a hundred feet high. He wanted to make peace with them. But Saya refused, and kept calling out the wind and rain to make trouble. The monastery and stupa were built seven times, and were destroyed six times by Saya's dragons.
The king of Jagat Sakya was furious and thought, "I am a king, but I can't even subdue a small Shamata. So he raised a large number of soldiers and horses, and came to the snowy mountain, and had to fill up the Dragon Pond.
Shamisaurus was afraid, and turned into an old Borromeo, and said to the king:
"You are a king, invincible, supreme, how to fight with a dragon for no reason, the dragon is just an animal, it is powerful, flying in the clouds, into the sky, and is not a match for us human beings. It is not worthwhile for the king to fight a dragon today. If you win, you won't be able to tell the truth; if you lose, you won't be able to get down from the stage. I advise you to quickly withdraw your troops and go back."
King Jagatsekhar did not listen to him and insisted on fighting.
Shamisaurus returned to the Dragon Pool and launched his might, and at once the thunder rumbled, the lightning flashed, the wind uprooted the trees, and the sand and stones struck over like raindrops. The sky was dark, and the king's army and horses were beaten and scattered in all directions.
The king had to go and ask K???a to protect him, saying:
"I, the worker of this kingdom, have never lost a battle, but today I have lost at the hands of a dragon. I pray to my ancestor, Rudra, with great mercy, to bless me to defeat the evil dragon."
So a blazing fire came out of the king's two shoulders, the gale calmed down, and when the clouds dispersed, the shamisen dragon could no longer exert his power and had to flee back to the Dragon Pool.
The king ordered each of his sergeants to carry a load of stones, vowing to fill the Dragon Pool. Shamirong became a Brahmin again and went to the king and said:
"I am the king of the dragon in the pool of the snowy mountain, and I have been defeated by you, so I have come to ask for forgiveness. If you do kill me, I will harbor a grudge and will look for an opportunity to take revenge in my lifetime, so do as you wish."
King Gargoyle Sekhar then made peace with the Shamaraja Dragon, making a vow with it that if it committed any future offense, it would no longer be forgiven.
The Shamyasaurus said, "I am a dragon, and when the dragon's temperament flares up, I cannot control myself. Please build the temple again, and I will certainly not destroy it. You can always send one person to look up at the top of the mountain. If you find a black cloud rising from the mountain, hasten to ring the bones of a cow, and when I hear the sound, I will be able to control myself." So King Jagatsekhar made a monastery and built a stupa there. The custom of sending people to watch the cloudy air at the top of the mountain has been passed down to the present day.

Poetry
The Dragon of the Black Pool
The Tang Dynasty's Bai Juyi
The water of the Black Pool is deep and black as ink. It is rumored that there is a divine dragon that people do not know.
The official who drove the house on the pool set up a shrine, and the dragon could not be divine.
The dragon was said to be the cause of many droughts, floods and epidemics.
Households raised dolphins and liquored wine, and prayed to the witch in the morning and the evening.
The wind blows when the god comes, and the paper money moves and the umbrellas shake.
The wind is quiet when the gods go away, and the incense goes out when the cups and pots are cold.
Meat is piled up on the rocks along the shore of the pool, and wine is poured on the grass in front of the temple.
I don't know how many dragons and gods are enjoying themselves, but the forest rats and mountain foxes have been drunk for a long time.
How lucky is the fox? The dolphin is not a good choice, but the dolphin is a good choice for the dolphin. The dolphins are killed every year to feed the foxes.
The foxes and dragon-gods have eaten all the dolphins, but do the dragons know about the bottom of the nine springs?

The rocky streams of snow fill the bay, and the five dragons dive into the wild clouds.
It is a place where the thunder and lightning are collected from the nine peaks, and where the water in the streams and pools is drunk.
The waves lead the floating rafts to the north shore, and the waves part the dawn to dip into the eastern mountains.
Looking back at the four sides is like looking at a painting, and I must believe that tourists do not want to return.
"The real dragon will come out from the nine heavens, and the world will be washed away.

The dragon is great because it has been honored by all the descendants of the Yellow Emperor; the dragon is nothing, because it is only a spirit, not a substance. In China, the dragon is a mythical and divine animal, representing yang in the cosmology of yin and yang, and is a symbol of the nation and the royal family. It is believed that this is the image formed by the ancient Yan Huang, who unified the various ministries of the Central Plains behind, and blended the totems of the clans. Legend has it that it can be hidden and visible, ascending to the sky at the spring equinox, diving into the abyss at the fall equinox, and raising clouds to cause rain. Successive emperors and kings appointed themselves as dragons, and their artifacts were also decorated with dragons. The dragon was worshipped by the Chinese ancestors as an ancestral god, and the "dragon" was generally respected, and the Chinese often called themselves "the descendants of the dragon". The dragon is the fifth of the twelve traditional Chinese zodiac signs. Together with the phoenix (Vermilion Bird), the unicorn and the tortoise (Xuanwu), the dragon is known as the "Four Rui Beasts". (There are also many books and historical writings that refer to the Four Ritual Beasts of Pillsbury, Pillsbury, Pixi, and Mythical Geibi.) The Green Dragon, along with the White Tiger, Vermilion Bird and Xuan Wu, are the four symbols of Chinese astronomy.

Cultural role, but still the Chinese nation has a strong appeal, cohesion, centripetal force. 2. Not physical worship, but cultural creation Totem culture is essentially a primitive society of the clan culture, and the Chinese dragon, the initial form of the original dragon, that is, produced in 3000 BC or so, which is the disintegration of China's primitive society, the origin of the era of Chinese civilization, and later Chinese civilization China's dragons, of course, can find some kind of prototype in nature, but the essence is not the nature of the existing physical objects, but based on national cultural concepts of culture. , but rather a cultural creation, a cultural symbol, based on national cultural concepts. The formative period of the era.
