Erlong play beads, also called "double dragon play beads", for this word, everyone is not unfamiliar, especially related patterns, that is more abound, we can close our eyes and think about it, who has not seen the classic pattern of "two dragon play beads"?

To tell the truth, among the various patterns that can symbolize traditional Chinese culture, the most representative, I am afraid that in addition to the "Taiji Bagua Diagram", it should be counted as this "Double Dragon Play Bead". So, we would like to know, the two dragons play beads, what is the origin of these two dragons? Why do they play with beads? Today, let's take a look at this problem.
For this question, we also have to start with the famous Taishang Laojun. It is said that Taishang Laojun had two apprentices, the eldest disciple was called the Fire Dragon True Man, and the second disciple was called the Miao Zhenren, and these two "True People" also each received an apprentice, but these two apprentices were not mortals, but two dragons.
These are two dragons from ancient times, one in the west of the sky and one in the south of the sea. The dragon in the south of the sea is a male dragon, and after reincarnation, it has a name, called "Peace"; the dragon in the west of heaven is a female dragon, and after reincarnation, it also has a name, called "Hu Feilong".
One day, the Fire Dragon True Man took his apprentice Hu Feilong to visit his disciple Miao Feilong, the two real people met, the apprentices naturally could not stay next to each other, so Hu Feilong wandered alone, strolling around, she met the apprentice of the Miao Zhenren Peaceful, at this time, PingHe incarnated as a small Daoist child, and Hu Feilong was incarnated as a small Daoist girl, and the two of them did not know each other.
Although PingHe and Hu Feilong are strangers to each other, they can be seen from their clothing and dress that they are Taoists, so it is inevitable that they still have to say hello, and it is okay not to say hello. Perhaps because the two people are young and vigorous, or perhaps they can rarely relax again, in short, it is all by their own nature, so a simple "greeting" slowly becomes a "quarrel".
In the end, Pinghe and Hu Feilong actually fought fiercely, and the more fierce the fight, the more fiercely they fought, the two people revealed their true bodies, and Both Pinghe and Hu Feilong became dragons. The two dragons fight each other, naturally extraordinary, and after a few rounds of fighting, they begin to show their magic.
First the peaceful dragon spat out a dazzling dragon ball in its mouth, and then, Hu Feilong's mouth also spat out one, two dragon balls, almost exactly the same, at this time, the fight was no longer two dragons, but became two dragon balls. After shaking the mountain, Pinghe took away Hu Feilong's Dragon Ball, and Hu Feilong also took away Pinghe's Dragon Ball, which is the story of "Erlong Play Ball", in fact, strictly speaking, it should not be "drama", but "grab".
The story of "Two Dragon Play Pearls" has been finished, we may as well say a few more words, the so-called no fight and no acquaintance, all this is already doomed fate, in the end, Pinghe and Hu Feilong actually married, and was named "Dragon King" and "Dragon Princess" by the Jade Emperor respectively, and they also gave birth to four sons, that is, Ao Guang, Ao Yan, Ao Qin, Ao Shun, the "Dragon King of the Four Seas".
