Chapter 2314 Ancient legends related to dragons

Walnut, or to be more precise, Xiaopang gave this python to reward!

And what will this reward bring to this python?

Lei Huanxi looked at it very carefully and seriously...

...

"Mr. Fan, what are he watching there?"

In the monitoring room, a staff member asked curiously.

In the monitor, Lei Huanxi stood in the snake house without moving.

It was like standing there blankly.

"have no idea."

Fan Zhiwei shook his head in confusion.

He really doesn't know.

What did Lei Huanxi stand there for?

Are you observing two blue blood tree pythons, or are you just standing there in a daze?

I'm afraid only Lei Huanxi can know the answer...

...

This python that received the reward of Xiaopang began to change.

The color on its body gradually began to change.

Become-

blue!

A very beautiful blue color.

Blue Blood Tree Python!

This is the real blue blood tree python.

And it is the first blue blood tree python in the world.

Lei Huanxi let out a long sigh.

At least now he already knows that the Blue Blood Tree Python was not created because of mutation.

Its true origin is because of the kindness given by a divine dragon.

That's why it began to mutate.

That's why it becomes so long-lived.

Slowly, Lei Huanxi suddenly remembered some other things.

In ancient times, the legend of dragons has always been circulated.

Will those legends related to dragons also be related to Xiaopang?

For example, it’s like the blue blood tree python in front of me, which was created by Xiaopang.

So when Xiaopang was still blocked in walnuts, would he also create some other creatures?

Those creatures that humans have never seen before and mistakenly thought they were dragons?

For example, Lei Huanxi knew about such a story that had been passed down for a long time before.

During the ancient Xia Dynasty, there was a monarch named Kong Jia, Si Kong Jia, the fourteenth monarch of the Xia Dynasty.

In that era, it was said that the Tao Tang clan of Yao's family had a descendant named Liu Lei, who once learned the ability to tame dragons from the Huanlong clan. This man was still living among the people when he was Kong Jia.

Kong Jia then ordered him to be summoned.

Liu Lei is indeed well-known and can really feed dragons. Kong Jia built two large ponds and put two pairs of dragons caught from the Yellow River and Han River inside, allowing them to swim freely.

Liu Lei was very patient in feeding the dragon, and he fed the dragon properly and strongly. Kong Jia was very happy to see it, so he appointed him as the official of the "Yulong clan".

This official was originally appointed by the Peng family "Shi Wei" for generations. Now that Shi Wei has declined, he was succeeded by Liu Lei.

It is difficult to raise a magical object like a dragon. Although Liu Lei received special training, he was inevitably making mistakes.

After a period of feeding, a female dragon suddenly died, which made Liu Lei very scared.

He secretly chopped the female dragon's meat into meat sauce and cooked it for Kong Jia to eat. Kong Jia felt it tasted delicious and praised it.

A few days later, Kong Jia wanted to eat this kind of meat again. How could Liu Lei kill the Lilong for Kong Jia to eat?

He fled because of fear and fled to Lu County, which is now Lushan County.

At this time, Lei Huanxi thought that the dragon raised by Kong Jia and Liu Lei might be dinosaurs or giant water beasts that still existed in ancient times.

Because in the natural environment at that time, the scope of human activities was still very small. The primeval forests were connected to the sky and the sun, stretched in all directions, with water flowing across the four fields and swamps, which were very suitable for the growth and reproduction of wild animals.

From ancient books, we can often see descriptions of "dragons" and monsters.

This was what scientists in later generations imagined that at that time, a small number of aquatic or terrestrial dinosaurs survived. They were huge in size and could swim or fly.

As humans become increasingly powerful, a few dinosaurs that fell into human hands were domesticated to drive and carry heavy traffic.

From the records of Dayu's flood control, we can see that the three magic weapons he used to control water at that time were: River Tu, Yinglong, and Giant Turtle.

Yinglong's description is very different from the later divine dragons, and is very similar to aquatic dinosaurs:

He is huge in shape, moves in the water, has endless strength, and has horns on his head.

Later, it was tamed for labor, which was very consistent with the behavior of the ancestors taming wild animals.

As for the giant turtle that Dayu rode, it should also be a kind of aquatic turtle that actually existed in ancient times.

We can also see records that during the flood control process, Dayu killed some evil dragons who were dissatisfied and caused trouble.

This should be a ferocious dinosaur or water beast that is more difficult to tame in the water.

This certainly cannot be regarded as a fictional image in mythology.

In Liu Lei's era, since he had the position of "Huanlong Clan" and "Dragon Control Officer", it means that a special institution was established to engage in this type of domestication activities, and the wild "dragons" caught by people in the wild--------

Dinosaurs and giant beasts are raised and domesticated, and a relatively mature set of techniques are formed.

The so-called "two dragons falling from the sky do not rise" should be because this animal was injured in the storm and rain and could not glide and soar, so it was caught by people.

As for Kong Jia's greed for the taste of dragon meat, it is understandable, because this kind of meat is very rare and Liu Lei is good at cooking, so Kong Jia, who is used to delicacies, has endless aftertaste.

Another aspect reflects that although this animal exists, it is no longer numerous at that time and is an endangered animal.

As a king who is greedy for pleasure, whenever he meets delicious food, he forgets the original intention of raising a dragon to pray for good fortune in the country and good weather, and takes the priority of having a feast for a feast. No wonder he is recorded in history and ridiculed forever.

As for the ancient Chinese character, the man named Dong's father, he was good at raising dragons, and many dragons flew to him. Shun was very happy to hear about this and immediately gave Dong's father the surname Huan's father.

Legend has it that Dong's father raised dragons four thousand years ago, on the banks of Dongze Lake, the reeds rippled, and the lotus flowers in the forty-mile river were fragrant. On the rippling lake surface, Dong's father leisurely drove a small boat and fished in the lake.

In fact, he was not fishing, but using the fishing rod to train the dragon in the water.

Wherever the fishing rod went, there was a noise. Dozens of dragons jumped out of the water and churned in the air. For a moment, silver light shone and waves splashed, and the shore attracted a group of people watching the fun.

The dragon was frightened and sneaked into the bottom of the lake and refused to come out again.

That night, the moonlight was like water, the sky was full of stars, and the lake was quiet. Mr. Dong sat alone by the lake and fell into deep thought.

He hopes that the dragon in the water will grow up quickly.

One day by the lake, thousands of years have passed in the world, and twenty spring and autumn have passed in a blink of an eye.

The dragons in the lake are growing up, and they are no longer satisfied with the lake and begin to yearn for the blue sky above their heads. They jump out of the water again and again just to fly into the sky.

My father Dong knew that the moment the dragon soared, he invited Emperor Shun and the ministers in the court to watch it together!

I saw Dong's father's fishing rod gently tapping in the water. Two big dragons dozens of meters long jumped out of the water with yellow scales, flying and hovering in the air like a colorful practice. Then, all the dragons soared into the air and flew into the sky...

The soaring dragon is a sign of auspiciousness and indicates peace and prosperity in the country.

Back in the court, Emperor Shun recruited all the ministers to discuss: he decided to use dragons as the totem of the nation. Because his father Dong made contributions to raising dragons, Emperor Shun enfeoffed this area as the country of Dongfu.
