Dragons are of great significance to China people. It is not just a totem, it represents auspiciousness and nobility; It is also a spirit, a bond that inspires unity, and a descendant of the Chinese people.
Although there are many records about dragons in various documents, few people have actually witnessed the face of dragons. So whether dragons really exist has always been a hot topic.
Mr. Wen Yiduo thinks that dragons are not creatures in real life, but virtual creatures in totem worship. However, some experts believe that dragons are real for three reasons.
?
Evidence 1: It is recorded in the history books. It is recorded in Historical Records that in the past, Qin Wengong went hunting, the black dragon; "Book Five Elements Zhi San" once recorded: At the end of Zhenyuan, Zi Jiang won Zhang Along, and I was stationed in Xichuan to make Wei Gaoxian; According to the Chronicle of the Emperor of Liao Dynasty, when Chen Geng saw a dragon stabbing a mountain, he shot fire at the mountain and his bones were in the house.
In the seventh year of Cao Wei Taihe, the "Qinglong" was discovered in a well in Mobei, southeast of Jiaxian County, Henan Province. At that time, Wei Mingdi led the ministers to watch and draw, from the imperial court down to the countryside, and countless people came here, only to see it lying face down on the ground for a long time, with a snout like an ox, long horns on its head, retractable scales, stiff beard under its jaw, lizard-like body, strong smell, weak limbs and small tail. It is said that this thing is very dependent on water, and once it falls to the ground, it will be powerless. Almost all these descriptions are very consistent with what we know about dragons.
Coincidentally, there is such a record in the Book of Jin (Volume 1999) Record Nine: In April of the first year of Yonghe, on the Dragon Boat Festival, Murong Mu, the great ancestor of Qianyan, said, "There is a black dragon and a white dragon, and each sees Longshan. I personally led a team to observe, and walked more than 200 steps to sacrifice Taizai. The two dragons frolicked for the first time, lost their horns and left. Junle, return to the palace, forgive its territory, call the new palace and the dragon, and make the dragon Xiang on the mountain. "

Evidence 2: The zodiac is on the list.
If the dragon does not exist in the zodiac, why did our ancestors list it in the zodiac? Therefore, many people believe that dragons are real. But for special reasons, when dragons appear around us, we usually can't see them. It is common for dragons to appear in scripture, because dragons belong to ten. Like people, it is one of them, and it is also in the process of life and death.

Evidence 3: dragons are everywhere.
At the beginning of July, 1934, many people in Yingkou said that they were surprised to find one lying in Haikou, about 30 feet long, with a square head and horns on its head, eyes half closed like two bells, breathing like a cow, two huge claws on its abdomen and silver scales on its body. In order to protect the dragon, people built a arbor with reed mats and watered it, but every day, this move continued until another rainstorm, mysteriously disappearing, leaving long crawling marks on the ground.
However, this dragon has not disappeared from now on. At the end of July this year, this dragon appeared again. It rose and fell over Yingkou, overturning three ships, damaging many houses and killing nine people. Soon after, someone found a dragon-like thing in Tang Wei at the mouth of 1. Its meat is rotten, attached to the tendons, and the smell is far away. Silver lodicule died in two big boxes.

At that time, after knowing this, the Sixth Division of the Puppet Yingkou transported the keel to Xiguan Wharf, and the nearby cities came to visit by train, which led to the phenomenon of price increase. At that time, Yingkou Meida Photo Studio and Yingming Photo Studio developed and printed a large number of "Dragon" bone exhibition photos of "Dragon in Yingchuan". On the street near the hutong in Erben Town, some people who came to Yingkou from other places to visit the "dragon" bone rushed to buy photos of the "dragon" bone and bring them back to their families for appreciation. At that time, all the newspapers reported it and it was a sensation.
But unfortunately, Yingkou belonged to the Japanese puppet government, and later the keel was pulled to Changchun and transferred to Japan. Now the Japanese museum still retains the keel at that time.

1In August, 944, another dragon falling event occurred in Chenjiaweizi Village of Songhua River. One day in August, more than 300 people watched a huge black animal outside Chenjiaweizi Village. It is more than ten feet longer than its body, with a slightly square head and a flat shovel angle on its forehead. Its nose is similar to that of a cow. It has a long beard on its mouth and is covered with black scales. Just like the dragon in the painting, it has four sharp claws. Its body is half on the ground, its legs are curled under it, and its mouth is panting from time to time, like the roar of a cow. When the villagers nearby saw it, they began to water it. It rained heavily at night, and it was the second day since the rain stopped. People got up to check and found that the black dragon had disappeared, leaving deep scratches on the ground.

1989, the 4th issue of Notes to China and Foreign Countries, Volume 3, edited and published by Shanghai Publishing House, published an eyewitness report of the Songhua River falling into the dragon, which caused a sensation.
The above is about dragons and their genera, and it is about the sharing of dragons. After reading what dragons belong to, I hope this will help everyone!
