The story about the Chinese zodiac dragon

It is said that ancient dragons had no horns. At that time, dragons lived on the ground. It is very strong in itself, can fly, is good at swimming, and wants to be an animal symbol, and also wants to be a beastmaster instead of a tiger. Finally, the Jade Emperor thought that they played badly and ordered them to come to the Heavenly Palace for trial. When he left, the dragon felt that although he was tall, he was not as powerful as the tiger, and he was afraid that the jade emperor would look down on himself. He was not a beastmaster or a zodiac sign.

At this time, the dragon's younger brother centipede had an idea: "The rooster has a pair of beautiful horns. Don't be afraid. If you borrow them, you will definitely add a little prestige to Brother Long." The dragon was overjoyed, so he and centipede came to the rooster to borrow horns. The rooster heard that the dragon wanted to borrow its horn, but he refused to live or die. The dragon was in a hurry and swore to heaven, "If I don't return your horn, I will die when I get back to land." The centipede is also on the side to ensure. "If Brother Long doesn't return your horn, you can eat me in one bite." When the cock saw the centipede as safe, he lent his horn to the dragon.

When Dragon and Tiger arrived in the Heavenly Palace, the Jade Emperor saw that both dragons and tigers were very powerful, so he ordered them to be the king of beasts, the tiger the king of land beasts and the dragon the king of aquatic animals. Since the tiger can be the zodiac, the dragon can also be the zodiac, only in the back. So, both the dragon and the tiger were happy, left the Jade Emperor and returned to the mortal world. When they came back, the dragon thought, if I give the horn back to the rooster, can the aquarium people still take care of me when they see me so ugly? So I decided not to return the cock's horn, plunged into the water, and now I don't go to land.

When the rooster saw that the dragon didn't return its horn, he was flushed with anger and took it out on the centipede. The centipede was so scared that it got into the crack. Today, we can also see that the cock's face is always red, and centipedes rarely climb out of the ground. When the cock sees the centipede, he always eats it one by one and always shouts, "Brother Long, give me back my horn?" ! "The dragon has never been to land again.
