Hello everyone, from today we come together to learn this oracle bone playing card, first of all, let's look at the king of this one, there are dragon oracle bones, gold script, seal body, traditional characters, calligraphy, the first word we learn is the dragon character, the dragon is the most representative in traditional Chinese culture, the legend of the dragon and the culture about the dragon is also very rich. As a unique cultural condensation and accumulation of Chinese, the dragon has taken root in the subconscious of each Chinese, and we have a special affection for the dragon, so we often say that it is the descendant of the dragon. The dragon symbolizes a spirit, is the totem of the Chinese nation, let's first talk about this dragon word.
The explanation for the dragon in the Commentary on the Interpretation of the Text is: "Dragon, the length of the scaled insect." It can be quiet, can be bright, can be thin, can be huge, can be short, can be long; the spring equinox and ascend to the sky, the autumn equinox and dive into the abyss."
Meaning: Dragon, king of scaly animals. It can darken, it can become brighter, it can become thinner, it can become larger, it can become shorter, it can become longer; it can ascend to the sky at the time of the spring equinox, and it can dive into the abyss at the time of the autumn equinox. This describes that the dragon's ability is very large, it can go to the sky and enter the sea, call the wind and rain, swallow clouds and spit fog, tend to be auspicious and avoid evil, changeable, etc., so we take the dragon as the totem of the Chinese nation, which is the interpretation of the dragon character in the text. Let's look at how the dragon character is explained in the oracle bone. The dragon character of the oracle bone is the horn on the dragon's head, the middle is the dragon's open mouth, and the lower part is the dragon's curved, long body; the original meaning is a divine animal that can walk, fly, and make rain.
We usually say that the hidden dragon should not be used, the flying dragon is in the sky, the dragon has regrets, the dragon, the dragon palace, the dragon king, the tianlong eight parts, the solitaire, the context, the finishing touch, the ye gong good dragon, the cheshui malong, etc., these are some words related to the dragon, and there are many words like this. From the appearance and form of the dragon, there are also some things like dragons, such as dragon boats, dragon gate arrays, tornadoes, dragon lanterns, fire dragons, faucets, dinosaurs, etc., which are some things that look very similar to dragons. Because the dragon's skills are very large, can go to the sky into the sea, ever-changing, so also use dragons to compare some heroes, talents, talents, etc., dragons fight tigers, Crouching Tigers, Hidden Dragons, Dragons and Tigers list, etc.
We also use dragons to symbolize imperial power, referring to emperors, kings, etc., such as dragon robes, dragon chairs, true dragon tianzi, etc
Let's expand a cultural common sense from the dragon: [Four Spirits] Dragon, Phoenix, Lin, turtle.
Animals with scales on their bodies are lin, and dragons are the length of hundreds of lin.
The animal with feathers on its body is a bird, the phoenix is the phoenix, and the phoenix is the length of a hundred birds.
Animals covered with hair are beasts, Lin is the unicorn, and Lin is the length of a hundred beasts.
Crustaceans and aquatic animals are introduced, and turtles are the length of 100.

The Long March has not been returned

Do not teach Humadu Yin Mountain.
