Story of the fire dragon and dragon lanterns
Once upon a time, there was a village where the villagers love farming and hunting.
One day, the villagers killed a snake and handed it over to the police for temporary storage.
The wingless snake flied away unexpectedly and a plague hit the village, leaving the villagers constantly in fear.
A villager was fully supportive of the saying that the mid-autumn fire dragon dance can rid the village of plagues.
Although the fire dragon and dragon lanterns only appear during the Mid-autumn Festival, they already felt like old friends on first sight and have since maintained a friendship of over a hundred years.

火龍與燈龍的故事
在很久很久以前,原來有一條村,村民熱愛耕作打獵。
一天村民擊斃了一隻隨風而來的蛇,將其交給了警署暫存。
怎料蛇沒有翼便飛走了,而村莊出現了疫症,村民惶惶不可終日。
中秋舞火龍繞著村子遊行可驅除疫症,一名村民十分讚成這個方法。
火龍與燈龍都只於中秋時節出沒,相見如故,自此牠們便成為了百多年的好朋友。
