Is the flood control in Balong a drought or a flood?

Eight dragons control water is drought. In people's traditional ideas, dragons are directly related to precipitation. In ancient times, many people built Longwang Temple in many places. In dry years, villagers will go to temples to pray for blessings and rain. There is a saying among the people that "more depends on dragons, less on waterlogging dragons." In short, the fewer dragons are needed for water control in a year, the better, the responsibilities are clear, the responsibilities are focused, and the responsibilities are not transferred, so as to ensure good weather. The farmers prayed for water control in Yi Long.

The meaning of eight dragons to control water

Judging from the jujube horse's head, it is "eight dragons control water, five cows plow the fields, and four people divide the cake." The specific method is based on the specific date of the first day of the first lunar month this year. Because on the eighth day of the first month of this year (Chen is a dragon), it is "eight dragons to control water." The fifth day of the first month is the first ugly day (ugly belongs to cattle), so it is "five cows plowing the fields". The fourth day of the first month is the first day of the third month. People call C a cake, so it is "four people share the cake".
