In 1244 AD, the year of the dragon in Jiachen, the Southern Song Dynasty painter Chen Rong painted the most vivid "Nine Dragons".
Thirteen Jiazi later, in 2024, at the age of Jiachen, we will meet again with "Nine Dragons".
The fourth season of the documentary "If National Treasures Could Talk".
At the opening of the topic, the painter said that he painted in the "Spring of Jiachen".
After a few strokes, a trace of mountain peaks was hidden, and in the clouds and mist, a dragon's tail swayed open, climbing out a long scroll of tiger roaring and dragon chanting.
Fu Long, crouching in the cliff, his four claws tightly clung to the rock, his head slightly raised, the dragon's whiskers pointed to the sky, and he was gathering momentum.
Shenglong, hidden in the clouds and mountains of fog, wrapped in darkness, the upper body curled up, as if tempting, eyes backwards, looking forward and backward.
Zhenglong, twisting the torso, facing us, the front paws are extended, the domineering is exposed, and the abdomen is exposed, a selfless kingly spirit, which is also the standard pattern of the chest position of the dragon robe in later generations.
Chen Rong likes wine and is often drunk. The hot wind in the mountains is expressed in hair-like fine lines, and the wind is mixed with ink spots, which are the painter's crazy splashes of ink.
Where the wind rises, when the clouds surge. At the junction of the wind and the dark clouds, a dragon looked back and roared, and his four fingers clenched at the pearl, revealing a murderous aura, as if he was threatening the enemy who coveted the pearl.
The painter may have been drunk, swept out a whirlpool, the whirlpool swirled out, and the strength of the wrist and muscles was fully displayed.
In the whirlpool, two dragons fought, one dragon curled up, in a defensive posture, and the other dragon rushed forward, wantonly provoking.
The dragon's tail twists into an eerie arc, hinting at the fierceness of the battle. The dragon's tongue is slightly colored, making it a wonderful finishing touch.
Between the mountains and rocks, the water flows, and the picture scroll rushes from the air to the sea. These waves and rocks later became a template for Japanese ukiyo-e painters to emulate.
In the huge waves, a dragon's head poked out, and the waves and angry waves covered the dragon's body. The angry waves rise and fall with the curve of the dragon, a wave of wind and waves, and the end bursts out of fine waves, like the infinite tentacles stretched out by the sea.
Then the dragon rose and rode away through the fog.
Finally, a dragon perches and lies on the rocks, the dragon snores, and the earth screams.
Chen Rong's dragon set the standard for painting dragons for later generations, and the image of the dragon was roughly frozen at this moment.

We are all descendants of the dragon.
