The legend of nine sons born in Laojiu refers to nine sons born in Longsheng, none of whom became dragons, and these nine sons are different. The so-called "dragon gave birth to nine children" does not mean that the dragon happened to have nine children. In the traditional culture of China, nine represents a lot and has a supreme position. Nine is an imaginary number and an expensive number, so it is used to describe the dragon son. There is a long-standing saying that dragons have nine sons, but there has been no saying about which nine animals are, and it was not until the Ming Dynasty that there were various opinions.
One of the sayings of "Nine Children of the Dragon" comes from Huailutang Collection written by Li Dongyang in Ming Dynasty. The nine sons of the dragon are:
Some sayings also include beheading, Kirin, Chaotianhao (rudder) and the god beast as one of the sons of the dragon.
The nine sons of the dragon are different. There are many stories about the nine sons of the dragon in ancient China. We will briefly introduce some legendary descendants of the dragon.
One of them said:
The prison cow is one of the nine sons born to the dragon. It is a yellow dragon with scaly horns. He likes music and squats in front of the piano. This musical dragon not only stands on the Hu Qin of the Han nationality, but also has the image of raising its head and opening its mouth on the Yue Qin of the Yi nationality, Qin Sang of the Bai nationality and some Tibetan musical instruments.
Yazi (pinyin: Yázì), one of the nine sons of the dragon, is a dragon with a bow, with a strong character and the most murderous and aggressive, carved on the knife ring and hilt. Looks like a jackal, so killing. It is often engraved on the scabbard of the handle. Yazi's original intention is to glare. The so-called "the virtue of a meal will be compensated, and Yazi's hatred will be reported." Newspapers can't be killed, so the dragon son who looks like a jackal will naturally appear on the scabbard of the hilt.
Xiao Fenglong is one of the nine sons. He had a close call once in his life. Now the beast in the corner of the temple is his image.
One of the legendary nine sons of Long Sheng growled loudly when he was hit, and acted as Hong Zhong's animal button to lift the beam and help him sing. It is shaped like a dragon, but Buron is small and easy to sing. It is said that I don't live by the sea all the time, and what I fear most at ordinary times is whales. Whenever there is a whale attack, Blau will shout. Therefore, people put their images on the clock and carved the long wood that hit the clock into the shape of a whale to make it loud and bright.
Yueyue (pinyin: Suānní) is one of the nine sons born in legend. It is shaped like a lion and likes to sit on a cigarette, so the image usually appears on a censer and then smokes.
Also known as Jin Xian and Lingxian. Sister-in-law is another name for the lion, so it is shaped like a lion, good at fireworks and easy to sit. Its style can be seen in Buddhist temples and incense burners. The lion, which even tigers and leopards dare to eat, is a noble animal and was introduced to China with Buddhism. Because the Buddha Sakyamuni is called the "fearless lion", people will naturally arrange it as the seat of the Buddha, or carve it on an incense burner to enjoy the incense.
Hui Lin, a monk in the Tang Dynasty, said, "Sister-in-law is a lion and has gone out to the Western Regions."
Hissing (pinyin: Bìxì), also known as Gui, Ba and Bu, is the son of Jiu. He looks like a tortoise, has teeth, is strong and bears a good load. It also has heavy objects on its back, and the stone turtle under the stone tablet is its image.
When the old wall of Beijing was demolished, half a coffin was found under the walls of Dongbianmen and Xibianmen, so it is said that the coffin carries the city of Beijing.
Armadillo (pinyin: bì à n), one of the nine sons of Longsheng, has the image of a tiger. It is said that he is an excellent litigator, so his image is set up on both sides of the prison gate or the official hall. Also known as the charter. Looks like a tiger, powerful, and good at prison proceedings, people carved it on the prison door. Tigers are powerful beasts, so the use of armadillos is to enhance the majesty of prisons and make criminals afraid.
Fu Yi (pinyin: Fùxì), one of the nine sons of the dragon, looks like a dragon, elegant and gentle, and is coiled around the top of the stone tablet.
The kiss of one of Longsheng's nine sons, also known as Qiwei and Chyi Chin (Pinyin, ch and w ě n, ch and w ě i, ch and w ě n), has a rough mouth and is easy to swallow, so he became a spine-swallowing beast at both ends of Miaoling, and took it to put out fires and eliminate disasters.
As for whether the owl's tail is a bird or a legendary sea whale, there is no exact statement at present.
Fortunately, there is hope. This dragon is shaped like a four-legged snake with its tail cut off. It looks around in dangerous places and likes to swallow fire. According to legend, when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty built the Bailiang Hall, it was said that there was a kind of fish in the sea with a tail like an ostrich, that is, an eagle, which could spray waves and rain and be used to avoid fire, so it was molded on the corner, roof and roof of the hall.
In addition, it is said that laughing at the wind, imprisoning cattle, and carrying the burden is not nine sons, but:
Gluttony (pinyin: Tāotiè) is a fierce and greedy beast in legend. Ancient bronzes are often decorated with the shape of their heads, which is called gluttony. Legend has it that the dragon gave birth to nine sons.
Looks like a wolf and has a good diet. Zhong Ding Yi wares often carve the head shape as decoration. Because gluttony is a particularly greedy beast in legend, people call people who are greedy for food and even property gluttony. Gluttony also appeared on Shang and Zhou bronzes as a patterned animal face decoration, which is called gluttony pattern.
Pteris vittata is one of the nine sons born in legend. It likes water and is carved into the shape of a bridge column and a dripping beast on the building.
The burnt rabbit, one of the nine sons of Longsheng, looks like a snail and has a good nature. He hates it when others enter its nest and spread the first ring as its image.
It looks like a snail and is very quiet, so people often carve its image on the head of the gate or paint it on the door panel. Snails always close their shells when they are attacked by foreign objects. People use it on the door, probably because it can be closed to ensure safety.
It is said that Guo, Kirin, Hou and Wu are also nine sons.
A cicada's head is one of the nine sons of the legendary dragon. It has a big mouth and a big stomach that can hold a lot of water. It is often used to decorate the drainage outlet of buildings, which is called pool head apron.
Kirin, the ancient god beast of China. The man's name is Qi and the woman's name is Lin. Kirin is shaped like a deer, and its tail is like an oxtail. It has a unicorn, but it is rare. In ancient China, Kirin symbolized auspiciousness.
It is generally believed that Kirin is a giraffe.
Hou, commonly known as Wang Tianhou, is said to be the son of the Dragon King and has the habit of watching the sky. The dragon at the top of the watchpost in China growled at the sky, which was regarded as uploading God's will and releasing people's feelings. There are also documents that the mount of Guanyin Bodhisattva is "roaring to heaven".
Also known as Heavenly Road and Exorcism. It is a kind of god beast in ancient myths and legends of China. It has the head of a dragon, the body of a horse and the feet of a lion. It is shaped like a lion, has a gray coat and can fly. Powerful, responsible for patrolling the sky to prevent monsters, plagues and diseases from disturbing the heaven.
In ancient times, people often used brave and brave as the names of the army. It has a mouth and no anus, can swallow everything without diarrhea, can make a fortune, can only enter but not exit, and has special magic. Nowadays, many people in China wear brave jade products for this reason.
