It is said that Kong Jia likes stories of ghosts and gods and worships them since he was a child. Because Kong Jia offered sacrifices to ghosts and gods every day, he obeyed the Emperor of Heaven, so that the Emperor of Heaven showed extra mercy and gave him two dragons. Tell him there are two men and two women in Hanshui of the Yellow River. Kong Jia ordered his lieutenants to arrest them, but no one could feed them. It is said that there were talents who specialized in raising dragons in ancient times, and the state set up "Dragon Family" and "Dragon Family" official positions. The Dragon Family specializes in raising dragons, and the Dragon Family specializes in controlling dragons. Liu Lei, a descendant of Tao Downs, once learned the skill of dragon training from Chi Rong's family, and Kong Jia summoned him. This Liu Lei is ok. He really knows how to raise dragons. Kong Jia ordered people to build two large ponds, which he caught from the Hanshui River of the Yellow River and put two dragons in them.
Kong Jia also named him the official of "Imperial Dragon". Liu Lei kept the dragon alive. But dragons are sacred, how can they be fed in the pool? Even a specially trained person like Liu Lei is bound to make mistakes. Before long, a female dragon suddenly died. Liu Lei was frightened and didn't know what to do at the moment. Suddenly he thought of chopping up the dragon meat and cooking it for the Kong family. After eating it, the Kongs felt that there was nothing more delicious than this meat in the world, and they wanted to continue eating it. Liu Lei saw it and thought it was ok. If I eat a dragon for you, my life will be gone. Thirty-six plans are the best policy.
I think this kind of dragon is very different from the film and television works we watch, including the descriptions and paintings of later generations. It is probably a water creature that existed in ancient times, or a water turtle. Some people say that this dragon may be an alligator in the Yangtze River. I think this may be an extinct dinosaur-like creature, because the earth at that time was not as vast as it is now. The vegetation on the earth is still super rich, and it is impossible to have such a monster in some deep mountains and forests.
