There is a reef on Daishan Island, which winds its way to the sea. Seen from a distance, it looks like a stone dragon. Local fishermen call it "Shi Qinglong". It is said that this is the remains of the dragon here in Wang Hailong Town.
A long time ago, Qinglong worked as a bodyguard general in the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea. This general Qinglong is ordered by his superiors to give whatever he wants. Sometimes I become a fisherman and go to the shore to see the people. If the fields on the island crack and the people are affected, they will secretly suck the water from the East China Sea and turn it into rain and dew to save the people from drought. So the local people respect him very much.
On one occasion, the Jade Emperor made an order to select an effective general from the Crystal Palace in the East China Sea to serve in heaven. The sea dragon king reluctantly gave up his love and sent his favorite general Qinglong up. On the day of Qinglong's departure, the sea dragon king was sent to sea and said to Qinglong:
"I specially chose the general promotion. I hope that when you get to heaven, don't forget the birthplace of the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea! " Qinglong thanked again and again.
After Qinglong died, the Jade Emperor named him General of Lingxiao Jubao Hall. A few years ago, Qinglong, like the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea, was able to cope up and down and left and right, and the days were not bad. Later, he met Bai Huxing, the maid-in-waiting around Huang, and they were often in contact. Over time, the two sides gradually developed a feeling of love, and they always flirted when they met. However, the laws and regulations of heaven are strict, so we can't pour out our feelings together. As time goes on, they feel that heaven is not free.
One day, Qinglongxing and Baihuxing met again when they were serving the Jade Emperor and the Empress Dowager in the harem. This time, when they saw no one around, they got up the courage to build a hole. The two really hit it off, and agreed to elope with each other on the night of the Queen Mother's birthday banquet and when the gods went to the Flat Peach Festival together, and become eternal partners.
Very not easy to wait until this day, they sneaked out of the West Heaven Yaochi and hurried to the worse gate. Is happy, just listen to the bells and drums from Lingxiao Temple, the worse gate slammed shut, four donkey kong stopped their way.
When the Jade Emperor learned that both of them were homesick and eloped secretly, his beard was so angry that even Tsao Gong on duty brought Qinglong and Baihu for interrogation. Qinglong Star and White Tiger Star have deep feelings and are not afraid of anything. Before the Jade Emperor, he said that he loved each other and was willing to be punished by heaven, just asking for permission to marry them. This angered the jade emperor even more, and immediately sent a decree to exile Qinglong Star in the East China Sea, and White Tiger Star was sent to earth. The two stars are permanently separated and cannot meet each other! Qinglong star returned to the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea with grief and indignation. I thought the Dragon King treated him well. When I returned to the East China Sea, I wanted to intercede with the Dragon King and find the White Tiger Star. Unexpectedly, the sea dragon king is also bullying others. Last time Qinglong went to the Heavenly Palace, he smiled and flattered. This time, Qinglong returned to the East China Sea, but it was uncharacteristically indifferent. He sat in a tall crystal chair and said to Qinglong lightly:
"This time you violated the rules of the day and were exiled back, so you can't be reused as in the past. It's not a good job to send you as a tide pusher now, but it's not bad! "
Qinglong thanked the sea dragon king, silently withdrew from the Crystal Palace, and began to add fuel to the flames. Push two tides a day, and you can't make mistakes when you suffer. But he couldn't get away, and he couldn't find Bai Huxing, so he could only think about her bitterly.
Besides, after being sent to the mortal world, Bai Huxing became a servant girl in an official family in Zhenhai. Once, Zhenhai was flooded, houses collapsed and people and animals drowned. The county is in Wang Yang, and many bodies have drifted to the East China Sea with the flood. The official maid was also drowned, drifted with the flood, and was finally blown to a beach on Daishan Island by the wind and waves. I don't know how many days have passed in Guang Chen. White Tiger woke up and saw an old man with white hair standing beside him, only to know that the local land had saved her. Bai Huxing told her tragic story again, and asked the land father-in-law to help her inquire about the whereabouts of Qinglong. My father-in-law sympathized with them and quietly told her that since he was exiled to the East China Sea, Qinglong Star has been the tide-pushing god in this area. Bai Huxing thanked the land father-in-law and rushed to meet him at once.
On a starry night, the troubled couple, White Tiger Star and Qinglong Star, reunited after a long separation. They were happy and sad, and after parting, they poured out their feelings for their loved ones. Behold, this matter was seen by the crab spirit sent by the sea dragon king to monitor Qinglong Star, and he quickly reported it to the sea dragon king. Sea dragon king a listen to angry:
"good! This blue dragon star and white tiger star broke the dogma of heaven, but also broke the official rules of our Dragon Palace. What is this crime! "
Fu immediately ordered Baihuxing Town to be located at the foot of a mountain in the northwest of Daishan Island, later called "Baihushan"; Liqinglong Town is located on a reef in the southeast of Daishan Island, which was later called Qinglong Reef. Qinglongxing and Baihuxing suffered a lot for freedom and love, and were finally pushed to the foot of the mountain by the sea dragon king, and they will never become husband and wife. However, the people do not sell the account of the sea dragon king at all, but miss this affectionate lover even more.
On New Year's Eve, the islanders always stick "Qinglong Paper" with dragons painted on it in their water tanks, rice tanks and vegetable cabinets as a souvenir.
Blowing Xiao Huilong girl
Han Xiangzi is a romantic and handsome scholar among the Eight Immortals. His sacred poem is called Zijin Xiao, which is made of a sacred bamboo in the purple bamboo forest in the South China Sea. It is said that Han Xiangzi's god Xiao was given to him by the seventh princess of the East China Sea Dragon King!
One year, Han Xiangzi roamed the famous mountains and rivers to the coast of the East China Sea, and heard that there was a dragon lady in the East China Sea who was good at melody, singing and dancing, and wanted to meet her. Therefore, he goes to the seaside to blow the wind every day. This day, the third day of March, is the day when the Dragon Maid of the East China Sea went out to sea for a spring outing. At night, the dragon lady was shocked to hear the melodious sound of dragons coming from the seaside.
Han Xiangzi's "Xiao Sheng" disturbed the dragon lady's heart, and her soul seemed to be hooked away by the melody, and she came to the seaside involuntarily and turned into a silver eel to blow Xiao Lang.
Han Xiangzi blows a tune, and the Great Lakes retreat ten miles.
At this time, he found a stranded silver eel on the beach that missed the tide and looked up at him with tears in his eyes.
Look at her facial expression, it seems, are still intoxicated in the music, Han Xiangzi again spirit again funny to say:
"Eel, eel, don't you know the secret? If you are a bosom friend, please pass on my affection to Crystal Dragon Palace! "
The eel nodded again and again.
Han Xiangzi was very surprised. Out of curiosity, he blew up Yu Pingxiao again. Unexpectedly, the silver eel is deeply connected with human nature, and her mother-in-law actually dances magically in the bright moonlight. The beauty of dancing and the strangeness of expression are rare in the world. Even Han Xiangzi, who traveled all over the famous mountains and rivers, froze.
Silver eels keep flashing, dancing and spinning in the moonlight ... faster and faster, and the rhythm is getting tighter and tighter. Suddenly, the silver light flashed and the eel disappeared. I saw a fairy-like dragon lady standing in the moonlight, with eyebrows and apricot face, jade bamboo shoots, slim waist and gold gauze lotus skirt. Stretching your waist is like Chang 'e dance. The beginning was better than the swallows skimming over the water, which confused a Han Xiangzi.
Dragon lady danced and sang:
Lonely Dragon Palace. Smell a rustling sound.
Your majesty sings a song, the phoenix asks for the phoenix, and I should dance with you until dawn.
In the song and dance, the moon gradually sinks in the west, and the tide slowly rises, and it is almost dawn. Suddenly, a wave came and the eel and the dragon girl disappeared. This scene happened for three consecutive nights.
On this day, Han Xiangzi came to the seaside to blow Xiao again. I don't know why, but after playing for a long time, the dragon girl just won't go out to sea. Is there something wrong with Yuping Xiao? He was so angry that he broke all his beloved jade articles, but the dragon lady still had no soil.
Han Xiangzi was walking back in a panic when he heard someone calling him from behind. Looking back, it was a strange old fisherman. The old fisherman greeted Han Xiangzi and said,
""xianggong ",the princess thank you for your good pleasure, specially sent me out to take a message. To tell you the truth, it was Princess Seven, the Dragon King of the East China Sea, who was singing and dancing under the moon a few nights ago. Because of the exposure, the dragon king locked him in the deep palace and could not come to meet him. Today, she asked me to present a bamboo branch from Putuo, Nanhai, for Xianggong to use as a fairy Xiao. I hope that "xianggong" will be a fairy tale and write a divine comedy to save the dragon girl from her misery! "
Say that finish, the old fisherman handed a bamboo pole and disappeared in a breeze.
Han Xiangzi turned himself into a purple and gold flute, so he gave up the idea of mixed life, went into the ancient cave in the mountain, and played the flute and composed music day and night. In fact, he developed extraordinary skills.
Later, when crossing the sea, Xiao, the god of Han Xiangzi, accepted the snake demon, and Aoyu, the town of Miaoqu, showed the magical power of the gods. Where's the East China Sea Dragon Girl? But Master Guanyin punished him as a maid in order to steal a bamboo, and he never got away.
Fu Shuo, fishermen in the East China Sea still often hear that there is a deep Xiao Sheng at sea. Is Han Xiangzi want to dragon lady, fidgety in my heart, blowing in the sky!
Blind dragon
A long time ago, there lived a hardworking and kind young couple by the Tiaoxi River in northern Zhejiang. My wife was pregnant for one year and gave birth to a freak, like a human being, like a snake instead of a snake.
The old patriarch flew into a rage when he knew it, insisting that it was an ominous sign, forcing the couple to lock the baby immediately. The couple couldn't bear it, gritted their teeth and asked the man to pick up the footbath and pour the baby into the lotus pond in front of the door.
A few days later, my wife got out of bed and went to the lotus pond to wash rice. Suddenly, she saw her son swim from lotus to Shibu, begging for milk from his mother. Mother has always loved her son, so she picked him up and fed him. In this way, she washed and fed him three times a day. One day, two days, after 360 days, my son grew up gradually, but he showed the appearance of a dragon
The news reached the ears of the old family again. He knew that this freak had grown up instead of being stuck. He was very angry, so he came up with a deadly trap to kill it.
One day at noon, the old man hid a firewood knife beside him and secretly hid it in the trees by the pool. When the woman was washing rice, she saw a little dragon swimming ashore to beg for milk.
When the old man saw the knife, he cut it down, and Xiaolong quickly jumped into the lotus pond. But it was too late, and this knife cut off the tail of Xiaolong, and it was instantly bloody. There happened to be a beautiful big butterfly parked in the pool. When the butterfly saw the little dragon suffering for no reason and losing its tail, it was very sympathetic. It immediately flew over and connected its tail with its own body, thus becoming a beautiful dragon tail.
Just then, the wind blew, dark clouds rolled and lotus petals flew in the pool. The dragon suddenly grew to more than ten feet long, jumped out of the pool, filled with lotus petals, and flew straight into the sky.
Seeing this momentum, the old man fainted and died. Xiaolong's mother saw her son flying in the clouds and called Xiaolong three times with tears in her eyes, but Xiaolong had already flown without a trace.
Since then, whenever there is drought on both sides of Tiaoxi River, Xiaolong will fly to beg for rain and let the villagers get a bumper harvest. In order to thank it, people in Changxing area made lotus petals and butterfly dragon's tail with colorful cloth, and made the famous "Louvre Dragon" in Changxing. Every Spring Festival, people dance dragons to commemorate and celebrate.
Put the dragon in the painting into the pupil of its eyes to make it lifelike ―― adding vitality to the works of art.
Legend has it that there was a painter named Zhang Sengyou in ancient China. He drew four dragons on the wall of a temple, but none of them drew eyes. Someone asked him why he didn't draw the eyes of a dragon. He said, draw eyes and the dragon will fly away. The listener didn't believe it, so he had to draw it. Zhang Monk Friend had no choice but to nod his eyes on the faucet with a brush. Who knows, just after the eyes of the two dragons were hit, the sky thundered, the wind blew hard, the rain poured down, and the walls were shattered. Two dragons flew into the sky, leaving only two dragons without eyes on the wall.
Make the finishing point praised the artist's skill in painting dragons. "Make the finishing point" has now become an idiom. It is a metaphor to add one or two key sentences to a speech and composition to make the content more incisive and powerful.
Pretend to love what you are actually afraid of.
In the ancient Spring and Autumn Period, there was a man named Ye in Chen State. He likes dragons very much. His beams, columns, doors, windows and daily furnishings are all carved with dragons, and even clothes and quilts are embroidered with dragons. The walls of the house are painted with dragons. Ye Gong's home is simply a dragon world. The real dragon in the sky was very moved when he learned about it, so he came to visit Ye Gong's home. The dragon's tap came in through the window and its tail dragged into the living room. Who knows that when Ye Gong saw the real dragon, he was frightened and ran away screaming.
It turns out that Ye Gong loves not a real dragon, but a fake dragon that looks like a dragon. "Ye Gong Long Hao" is also an idiom now, which means that you like something on the surface, but in fact it is not a real hobby.
