2. Heaven Emperor and Dragon
The dragon and the horse recorded in Historical Records are also called the Emperor of Heaven and the Jade Emperor. Legend has it that the Dragon Emperor is the embodiment of the Yellow Emperor, the ancestor of the Chinese nation. It is recorded in Historical Records and Closed Sutra that the Yellow Emperor and ordinary people dug copper in Shoushan, cast the mined copper into a big bronze tripod and placed it at the foot of Jingshan Mountain. When casting a bronze tripod, a dragon lowered his beard to welcome the Yellow Emperor to heaven. The Yellow Emperor rode on the dragon's back, and his ministers, wife and children climbed up one after another, totaling more than 70 people. At this time, the dragon ascended to heaven, and the other ministers could not squeeze in, holding the dragon's beard one by one. The dragon beard meat was broken because of its heavy weight, and the bow carried by the Yellow Emperor was also pulled down, so the courtiers had to hold the dragon beard meat and bow and wail. After the Yellow Emperor ascended to heaven, he became the Emperor of Heaven.
In Records of the Historian Tianguan's Biography, that is to say, the Yellow Emperor is the embodiment of Huanglong. Huanglong is the dragon emperor, and the five elements belong to the earth and are in the middle. It is the dragon head and heavenly teacher in Taoist religious view. It is also mentioned in the Han dynasty classics: "Huanglong people are the length of the quartet, the positive color of the quartet, and the essence of the gods. It can be huge, it can be detailed, it can be quiet, it can be bright, it can be short, it can be long, it suddenly exists, and it suddenly dies. Wang has no filter in fishing. If he goes to the abyss, he should swim in the pool harmoniously. " Illustrates the image of Huanglong.
3. Wang Yu Suojiao
The story of Yu Wang Suojiao, with a mythical image, shows Dayu's great achievements in benefiting the people and managing the water. There are three Lock Longjing in this story, namely Lock Jiaojing in Wang Yu, Yuzhou, Henan, Jing Shun in Jinan, Shandong, Qi Jing in Guishan, Huaiyin, Jiangsu, and Lock Longzhu in Suolong Village, Wushan County, Chongqing. These fairy tales reflect people's memory of Dayu's flood control.
Step 4 kill Huanglong
In ancient times, the representative of Xia nationality was a dragon that had been passed down for thousands of years and became more and more deified. It is said that when Gun was ordered by Emperor Heaven to control the water, he saw people on the ground being driven by the flood, unable to hunt and farm, and almost unable to survive. But for such a large-scale flood, the only way Gun can think of is to contain it. Seeing that these floods kept breaking through his dam, Gun couldn't stand the helplessness of watching mortals suffer, so he decided to steal the treasure "rest land" of heaven-a kind of soil that would keep growing, so that Gun's containment would not fail again.
With the help of "farming", people have left barren hills and caves and started living on the ground again. I am glad to see that these mortals can start to live and work in peace and contentment because of his help. When he was about to return to work in heaven, Yao, the owner of heaven, was very angry that Xierang had been stolen. So we took back the "fallow farmland" and let the flood ravage the land again, and the original scene of living and working in peace and contentment turned into Wang Yang. Guns can do nothing. Not only could he not save these mortals, but he was also killed by Yao with lightning ("Yao Yi died in Yushan ..."-"Seventeen Years of Zuo Zhuan Zhao Gong").
The gun that failed in water control is full of resentment. After being chopped by lightning, not only did he die unsatisfied, but his body did not rot three years later. Yao was afraid that something might happen to Gun's body, so he sent a warrior to cut it open with a sharp martial knife. Unexpectedly, Gun's resentment accumulated in his stomach and turned into a Huanglong, that is, Gun's son Yu ("Gun died at the age of three and was cut into a Huanglong by a martial knife." -"Shan Hai Jing Hai Nei Jing", Guo Fu quoted "Returning to Tibet to beg for food"; "At the age of three died won't be rotten. As a deputy, I used Wu Dao. " -"The History of the Road", with the note "Begging for food in Tibet").
Legend has it that the "dragon cutting platform" and the "staggered gorge" in the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River were cut off by a chaotic boiling water canal, which almost missed the important event. Then the Xia Dynasty was established, which was not only the first dynasty in the history of China, but also a clan with dragons as its totem.
5. Guti Lapras
"Overseas South Classic" said: "Zhu Rong in the south is a man with a face and a beast's heart, riding two dragons." "Overseas Western Classics" says: "The land of great joy began in Xia Hou and danced in this nine generations; Take two dragons, clouds cover three floors. Hold the hoop in your left hand, the ring in your right hand, and wear Yuhuan. " In the north of the Universiade, there is a saying: "The field of great legacy." Overseas West Sutra says, "In the west of Ru Shou, there is a snake in the left ear, riding two dragons". "Overseas East longitude" says: "Ju Mang in the East, with birds and masks, riding Ssangyong". "Haibei Jing" says: "The vertical is extremely deep, ... the soldiers are barbarians, riding two dragons."
"Wild West Classic" says: "Outside the southwest sea, south of Chishui and west of quicksand, there are two green snakes riding two dragons, named' Xia Hou Kai'." Overseas south sutra says: "The north is strong, the human face is bird's body, and two green snakes are practiced. (Guo Pu's note) Cloud: "There are black hands and black feet in the north, riding two dragons." Zhu Rong, Qi, Bing Yi, Kai and Yu Jiang are not among the three emperors and five emperors, and most of them are unknown in the history of China.
But they are all emperors or princes in ancient China. The biggest difference between them and ordinary people is that they go out for "Lapras". Because "dragon" is a special mount endowed with the status of ancient emperor by ancient history, and it is also its symbol. Therefore, many documents have records about the ancient emperor "Lapras".
Extended data
Dragon is one of the oldest clan totems of the Chinese nation. In ancient times, people feared nature and worshipped divine power, so they created such an idol with infinite power, worshipped it and prayed for peace. For thousands of years, the dragon has been mysterious and sacred in people's hearts, and has gradually become a totem representative respected by the Chinese nation.
The image of the dragon known today combines the characteristics of various creatures: antlers, ox heads, donkey mouths, shrimp eyes, elephant ears, fish scales, human whiskers, snake bellies and chicken feet. Some studies have pointed out that the image of the dragon has undergone constant development and changes. In the long historical process, through war and alliance, the people who believe in the dragon totem have gradually become leaders, and the dragon totem has gradually become the banner of the whole Chinese nation's belief. The totem image originally believed by other nationalities was gradually absorbed and enriched into the dragon image, so the dragon became more and more distinctive, and its image became increasingly complex and powerful, becoming the representative of the emperor.
