The "Sentence" reads: "The ancient tombstone is folded, and the desolate pine and cypress are rare. "Life in the world, can not escape the fate of the earth for safety, life is only a few decades, fleeting." In a short lifetime, countless great people have been able to write legendary lives and become people praised by the world. The heroes are buried in the burial chamber, and the value and deeds of their lives are also buried in the burial chamber.

Chinese culture has a history of 5,000 years, traveling in the long river of history, and the world can see countless magnificent deeds left by predecessors. The progress of Chinese society is also the result of the continuous exploration of countless ancestors, from Shennong's taste of hundreds of grasses, to the conquest of the four sides by Emperor Yanhuang, to the creation of the imperial system by Qin Shi Huang to unify the six kingdoms. At each stage, a unique Chinese culture is born.

From ancient times to the present, the Chinese nation is known as the descendant of the dragon, and the dragon is the symbol and business card of Chinese culture. In ancient society, the emperor was regarded as the embodiment of the real dragon, the emperor's will was closely related to the dragon, and the emperor's exclusive items would appear with the word "dragon", such as dragon robes, dragon chairs, etc. The dragon is a god in the eyes of the world and is regarded as a symbol of Chinese culture. But so far, the world has never seen a real dragon, and there are records of dragons that appear in history books.

However, during the Liao Dynasty, the history books record that the Liao Taizu Yelü Abaoji met the true dragon that was passed down by word of mouth in the world in 920 and shot it to death. This historical story has attracted the attention of the world, and there are many opinions about the authenticity of the matter.

It is written in the history books that when Yelü Abaoji was in the upper court, he received a recital from a minister who was far away, and the minister said that he had found the figure of a real dragon in the area of the Thorn Mountain, which was five meters long and looked like a beast. The appearance of the real dragon has attracted widespread attention, and many villagers have gathered to watch the real dragon.

After hearing the minister's words, Yelü Abaoji was very excited, believing that the appearance of the true dragon was a sign of good fortune, so Liao Taizu led the crowd to the vicinity of the Thorn Mountain. After arriving at his destination, Yelü Apaoji found the figure of the real dragon in the river, and he was so surprised that he wanted to capture the real dragon and bring it back to the palace, so Yerushalayim took out a longbow and wanted to trap the real dragon. However, when he fired an arrow, he accidentally killed the true dragon. The accident made Yerushalayim very distressed, and he finally decided to bury the real dragon and build a temple around the thorn mountain to commemorate the real dragon.

This story is recorded in the "History of Liao" and has aroused controversy. As we all know, in ancient society, the dragon was a creature that was deified by the world, which did not really exist, and it was most likely an ancient creature from the ancient period, which has been extinct. Therefore, people believe that Liao Taizu shot the real dragon, and this "real dragon" is most likely a creature similar to the dragon, not the real dragon in the world's legend.

The debate continued for hundreds of years, until 1982, when archaeologists in the Liaoning region discovered an 8,000-year-old tomb site known as the Chahai Site. Archaeologists were thrilled to discover this tomb, one of the oldest to date in China. After several days and nights of hard work, archaeologists entered the burial chamber, and in the burial chamber, archaeologists found a stone pile of plastic dragons.

This dragon is 19 meters long and has a reddish-brown color all over its body, which is composed of many reddish-brown rocks. This plastic dragon opened its huge mouth and had the potential to take off. The dragon found in the Chahai site proves that people knew about dragons as early as 8,000 years ago. At the same time, it shows that in the ancient Chinese culture, the dragon also occupies an important position. In ancient societies, people certainly did not invent a creature out of thin air, so it is very likely that the dragon was a creature of ancient times, and after people first discovered the dragon, they were in awe of it.

Later, in 1987, archaeologists again found a totem about the dragon in the Yangyun cultural site, which has a history of more than 6,000 years. All kinds of signs prove that in ancient Chinese society, there was indeed the existence of dragons, but in the development of the times, this creature called "dragon" disappeared into the long river of history. The creature that Jeroboam shot was speculated not to be a real dragon, but most likely a creature similar to a dragon, most likely a long snake.

Although Liao Taizu did not shoot a real dragon, it does not mean that in ancient society, there was no dragon, and it was very likely that it would be like a dinosaur, which would lead to extinction for various reasons. Nowadays, the study of history has not yet been completed, the world is still on the road of historical exploration, and more and more ancient tombs have been unearthed, which has made the world have a better understanding of historical puzzles. I believe that in the near future, the world will be able to solve the historical mystery of whether the dragon exists and sublimate Chinese culture.
