Discover the intriguing tale of a dragon without eyes that fell from the sky in Yishui, and the efforts of the county magistrate to cover and honor the mystical creature.
In Yishui, there was a heavy rain, and suddenly, a dragon fell from the sky. It had no eyes and was gasping for breath. The county magistrate ordered eighty mats to cover it, but they couldn’t completely cover the dragon’s body. The county magistrate then performed a sacrifice for it in the wild, and at that moment, the dragon was still repeatedly slapping the ground with its tail, making a “bang bang” sound.
《龙无目》
沂水大雨，忽堕一龙，双睛俱无，奄有馀息。邑令公以八十席覆之，未能周身。又为设野祭，犹反复以尾击地，其声堛然。
