Dragon, in China have contact with heaven and earth there is everything.

Dragon in the Chinese traditional culture is the symbol of power, nobility and honor, and luck and a mark of success.

, is that the dragon has this kind of cultural symbolism and legends and myths LTD has been walking in the day, the sea is riding the wave, in the room, on the other hand, it's raining very very much, but more important, because the dragon often become a slave, feudal society of China for thousands of years the supreme ruler of the "exclusive patent", is the pronoun of imperial power, therefore, the emperor since the ratio of "of" the real dragons, the whole body is called "suggested" the dress is called "dragon robe", sit chair is called "dragon", passenger car, the ship named "dragon chariot", "dragon boat"... in short, all related to their living things are dubbed the "dragon" word to show his privileges are on their high.

Dragon pegged to the imperial history is very long, starting when the yellow emperor.

In the era of the legend, with the blood of the dragon emperor was on patrol community.He first mountain with mining, and then to cast ding jing the foot of the mountain, in memory of his war victory there before you.After a period of time, ding finally finished casting, the yellow emperor in jingshan mountains held a celebration ceremony to celebrate the giant tripod cast into.The degree of the ceremony is not only have various gods, and there are eight people, everyone wants to see the yellow emperor ding what on earth is casting.To this time, probably still the emperor himself was unveiled, saw a Gao Yu zhangs, mouth as big as a cylinder of bronze dings, shem the dazzling golden light in god before, people, all speaking greiner, come forward to scrutinize, body with a vigorous flying shuttle in a piece of auspicious clouds, surrounded by four spirits, and a variety of exotics, is various, perfectly.

As the mood of the gods with reverence to appreciate all giant tripod and the patterns of the above, the dark clouds are gathering in the sky, suddenly blocked off the sun, the sky dark down soon, everyone thought toIt rainsA golden light penetrates the thick clouds, cognition, a dragon with shining golden clouds, its tail and lower body in the cloud, baoding head on, long tendrils down the legs down to the ground.The yellow emperor understand that this is completed the mission of the world, god sent the dragon to pick him up to heaven, he leapt up the dragon back, fly back to heaven.Earth people loathe to give up the yellow emperor to keep such good wise monarch back, we pull the tendrils don't let go, the results of a torn many tendrils, yellow emperor and the dragon or go.It is said that the tendrils fall to the ground, it gives birth to many small long grass, after people take this grass is called "dragon straw".

Legend of the era of famous monarch, mostly with dragon and couldn't say for sure, clean-cut of unknown origin relations.Yao, there is a big distinction in the world, everywhereThe flood, in order to save the people, he ordered Gun to water conservancy.Interest Gun stole day emperor, the soil has a "wall" to water conservancy, vain, killed by the angry sent in mount plume, and candle dragon just is the patron saint of here.Plume mountain the landlords and the sun, a perennial by candle dragon mouth contains a candle lighting, thus Gun body rotting in three years.Day emperor lest Gun will find his revenge on endothelial resurrection, the authenticity of a don, sent a god named "wu dao", probably is "cutting" in the sky, with a nod to lower cui Gun resin, when the knife cut open the belly Gun wu, suddenly from inside a blame for a kind of dragon, long a pair of pointed and sharp Angle, in the hillside near the leaping around for a few times, immediately become a dragon, it is Gun son, yu.Strange to say, yu after birth, the body of the Gun was rolling down feather abyss, always gone to a dragon "Yang must scale of vibration, transverse wave on repaired".

Yu inheritance FuZhi, finally surrendered to the floods, won the admiration to the peoples, later, the old accord with shun public opinion and gave the throne demise to yu, yu became the xia dynasty founding monarch, it may also be "emperors were the real dragons" one of the historical basis.
