Because it is located in the east, the five elements are colored according to yin and yang, and the east is blue, hence the name "Qinglong". There is also a saying that dragons are lustful, and when they meet cows, they give birth to Kirin, and when they meet pigs, they give birth to elephants. Another dragon gave birth to nine sons, unlike the dragon. Here's the thing: the eldest son is called prison cow: he loves music, so he often stands on the piano head. Such as Hu Qin of Han nationality and Qin Sang of Bai nationality. Ma Touqin in Mongolia may also be a variant of prison cattle. The second son's name is Chipi: He loves to kill people, so he is often put on weapons to intimidate the enemy. At the same time, it is used in ceremonial ceremonies to appear more solemn.

Legend has it that in ancient times, it often carried three mountains and five mountains to make waves. After being appeased by Yu Xia, he made many contributions to Yu Xia.

The seventh son is an armadillo: also known as the Charter, it looks like a tiger. According to legend, it upholds justice and can distinguish right from wrong, so it is placed on the top of the sign of silence and avoidance when officials patrol, so as to maintain the awe-inspiring atmosphere of the court. The eighth son is a burden: because he loves literature, he put it in two stone tablets. Mozi is a kiss: also known as fish-shaped dragon, with a tail. According to legend, 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.
