Boss
Prison Bull, the eldest of Longsheng Jiuzi, loves music all his life, and is the most docile of many Longzi. It is not addicted to killing or being cruel, and specializes in temperament. Legend has it that the prisoner's ear of the dragon head snake has a wonderful sound and can distinguish the sounds of all things. It often squats on the piano head to enjoy the music played by plucking strings, so its portrait is engraved on the piano head. This decoration has been used all the time, and some valuable huqin heads are still engraved with the image of the dragon head, which is called "the dragon head huqin". This musical dragon son not only appeared on the Hu Qin of the Han nationality, but also on the Yue Qin of the Yi nationality, the three-stringed Qin of the Bai nationality, and some Qin of the Tibetan and Mongolian nationalities.
The dragon gave birth to the second vengeful god of war, and the enmity must be reported to the second.
The vengeful son
The vengeful son is the second. It is said that he was born with a dragon head, and he was strong-willed and aggressive all his life, and he was the god of war of the dragon son. The fierce eyes that yazi stared up when he was angry were also used by the ancients to describe "glaring". Sima Qian's evaluation of "Fan Ju's revenge" in Historical Records is that "the virtue of a meal will be repaid, and the resentment of yazi will be reported", so the "yazi will be reported" was born. It is easy to kill, so the ancients often carved it at the swallowing mouth where the blade of the sword joined with the handle, which added awesome power. It is not only decorated on the weapons of famous soldiers in the battlefield, but also used in a large number of ceremonial weapons and palace guards, which makes it more dignified and solemn. Because emperors all believe that yazi can suppress all evil.
The third of the nine sons of Long Sheng is the vanguard of the temple corner
The third one
The third one, like an animal, is the third one. He had a close call and a good hope all his life, and the animals in the corner of the temple platform are its portraits. These animals stand in a single line at the front end of the vertical ridge. The animals are led by a "fairy" riding birds, followed by dragons, phoenixes, lions, Tianma, seahorses, scorpions, scorpionfish, scorpions, bullfights and what to do. Laughing at the wind is the second place. Their placement has a strict hierarchy, and only the Hall of Supreme Harmony in the Forbidden City in Beijing can have all kinds. These 1 beasts mean "perfect", and the number of secondary halls should be reduced accordingly. Mocking the wind not only symbolizes auspiciousness, beauty and majesty, but also has the meaning of deterring demons and eliminating disasters. The placement of Mockingwind makes the shape of the whole palace both strict and varied, achieving the harmony of solemnity and vividness, and the unity of grandeur and exquisiteness, which adds a mysterious atmosphere to the towering palace.
The fourth of the nine sons of the dragon was born, and the roar of the Bulang shocked four.
The fourth one was Bulang, which was shaped like a coiled dragon, and it was the fourth one in its life. The dragon-shaped beast button on the Hong Zhong was its portrait. It turned out that Bulao lived by the sea. Although he was a dragon, he was always afraid of giant whales. As soon as the whale attacks, it screams in fear to drive the whale away. According to its "good singing" characteristics, "every bell wants to make a loud sound", that is, the bulun is cast into a bell button, and the wooden pestle that rings the bell is made into a whale shape. When ringing the bell, let the whale hit the bulun again and again, making it "ring into the sky" and "sound alone" Nowadays, on almost every ancient clock in the whole country, there is a figure of Bulan.
the fifth sister-in-law of the nine sons of Longsheng, incense burner Leo
the fifth brother-in-law
, also known as the golden sister-in-law and the spiritual sister-in-law, looks like a lion, ranking fifth. Although he looks fierce, he likes quietness but doesn't like moving all his life. He is good at sitting and likes fireworks, so he is a Buddha. According to legend, this kind of robes decorated on the Buddha's seat was introduced to China by Indians in the Han Dynasty. By the Northern and Southern Dynasties, it had been widely used in Buddhist art in China. This shape was created by Chinese folk artists and made it have the traditional style of China. Later, it became the fifth son of the dragon. Most of the places it was arranged were in front of Buddha and Bodhisattva statues sitting in cross-legged or cross-legged. The dragon-shaped ornament in the middle of the neck collar of a stone lion or a bronze lion in the Ming and Qing Dynasties is also an image of a lion-in-arms, which makes the traditional China gate lion guarding the gate more powerful. Sister-in-law also serves as the mount of Manjusri Bodhisattva. Today, in Wutai Mountain, the Dojo of Manjusri Bodhisattva, there is still a temple dedicated by the ancients. Because the sister-in-law ranks fifth, this temple is also called "Wuye Temple".
the sixth of the nine sons of Long Sheng, Ba Xia, is a powerful climber.
Ba Xia, also known as the tortoise, looks like a tortoise. Lao Liu
is an old six, who has been burdened with great strength all his life, and the turtle under the pedestal is his portrait. The first kind of legend is that in ancient times, Ba Xia often carried three mountains and five mountains and made waves in rivers, lakes and seas. Later, Dayu subdued it when he was in charge of water control. It obeyed Dayu's command, pushed mountains and dug ditches, dredged rivers and made contributions to water control. When the flood was overcome, Dayu was worried that he would run wild everywhere again, so he moved to a huge stone tablet with indomitable spirit, which was engraved with the merits of the flood control, and told him to carry it. The heavy stone tablet made him unable to walk casually. Baxia and tortoise are very similar, but there are differences when they look closely. Baxia has a row of teeth, but tortoise doesn't. The number and shape of nail plates on the carapace of Baxia and tortoise are also different. The bully, also known as the stone turtle, is a symbol of longevity and good luck. It is always struggling to move forward with its head held high, its four feet desperately propped up, struggling to move forward, but it can't move. The pedestals of some famous stone tablets in China are carried by tyrants, which can be seen in the forest of steles and some historic sites. According to the second legend, the dragons came down to earth to help Zhu Yuanzhang lay down the Daming Mountain, but when they were going back to heaven, Zhu Di, Zhu Yuanzhang's fourth son, later Ming Chengzu, didn't want to let them go, so he said to Ba Xia, "If you can carry the merit tablet of Emperor Mao, I will let you go back." I don't know if I'm planning it, so I promised to come down. After I carried it, I couldn't play any more-because there is no limit to merit, I was crushed under the merit monument from now on.
Seven of Dragon's Nine Sons is the bane of criminals.
Old Seven
Armadillo, also known as Charter, is like a tiger. It is litigious all its life, but it is powerful. The tiger-head decoration on the upper part of the prison door is its portrait. Legend has it that the armadillo is not only eager for public interests and justice, but also brave in speaking, and can distinguish right from wrong, and break it impartially. In addition, its image is majestic, and the prisoner is not only decorated on the prison door, but also crouched on both sides of the lobby of the official office, which is very shocking to those who commit crimes. Whenever the yamen chief sits in court, there is an image on the top of the chief executive's title card and the silence avoidance card. It looks around and looks around to safeguard the solemnity and righteousness of the court. In ancient times, the gate of the prison was engraved with the head of an armadillo, so the prison was also commonly known as the "tiger head prison" by the people.
Eight of the nine sons of Long Sheng loves calligraphy and inscriptions
Old Eight bears a heavy burden, looks like a dragon, has a lion's head, ranks the old eight, has a good life, and is another elegant one among Long Zi-devoted to calligraphy. Wenlong on both sides of the stone tablet is its portrait. China's steles have a long history and rich contents. Some of them are simple in shape, smooth and bright, and the light can be used as a guide. Some are exquisitely carved, with graceful words and vivid pens; There are also some famous poems and stone carvings, which are well-known and famous throughout the ages. However, she loves this kind of inscription with shining artistic brilliance, and she is willing to turn it into a pattern dragon to set off these literary treasures handed down from generation to generation and decorate the pedestal more elegantly and beautifully. They are coiled around each other, which seems to be creeping slowly, and they match with the base, which is more spectacular.
Laojiu, the fire god who kissed the palace of nine sons of the dragon
Kiss the dragon's head, also known as the tail of the owl. It is said that it was born with a dragon head, and its form first appeared in the "Bailiang Hall" built by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. At that time, a minister suggested that there is a kind of fish in the sea, whose tail looks like a owl, which can spray waves and rain. It might as well be shaped on the temple to protect the hall from fire. Emperor Wu agreed. When the hall was completed, the ministers scrambled to ask what was on the ridge of the hall. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty didn't know how to answer it, so he named it "the tail of an owl", which gradually evolved into a homophonic "kiss". It is also said that it was introduced from India with Buddhism around the Northern and Southern Dynasties. It is something under the rain god in Buddhist scriptures, which can put out fires. Therefore, the kiss is changed from this, so it is placed at both ends of the roof to eliminate disasters and put out fires. Laojiu, a dragon-shaped dragon-swallowing beast, has a wide mouth and a rough mouth, and is easy to swallow all his life. The tail-rolling bibcock at both ends of the temple ridge is his portrait. "Taiping Yu Lan" has the following description: "Tang Huiyao orders, after the disaster of the Liang Temple in the Han Dynasty, the sorcerer said,' There are fish in the sea, and the tail is like a owl, and the surf is like rain', so it is like the tail, and Tired Ofthe Fire is auspicious." The "witch" mentioned in the article is the flow of alchemists, and "fish sting" is the predecessor of kissing. Kissing is water-based, and it is used as an evil thing to avoid fire.
