What does the dragon ball symbolize in the dragon's mouth?
There are several explanations (folklore)

1. A teenager mowed the grass (or drew water) and got a orb. This pearl is put in the rice jar to increase rice and in the till to make money. When a rich man found out, he brought people to rob pearls. The teenager put the beads in his mouth in a hurry, but accidentally swallowed them. So I longed for water, and when the water in the jar dried up, I went to drink river water, river water. Drinking and drinking, his head has horns, his eyes protrude outward, and his body has scales, turning into a dragon. Such legends are widely circulated in Sichuan, Zhejiang, Guangdong and other places, revealing the preciousness of "pearls" and the relationship between pearls and dragon life.

2. The sun is another understanding of "pearl". Some dragon-playing bead patterns we have seen, especially two dragon-playing bead patterns, mostly have flames rising, which are clearly a "fire bead" or a "fireball"; Below is the turbulent sea, which can be understood as a fireball jumping out of the sea. In people's vision and concept, it can be called "fireball", and the sun can rank first. So, obviously, the fireball went out to sea, which means the sun went out to sea. Now that the sun is out to sea, why should dragons "play"? Here we would like to introduce the four gods in the eyes of the ancients: Oriental Dragon, Western White Tiger, Southern Suzaku and Northern Xuanwu. The sun rises in the east, and the dragon is a sacred object representing the east. In this way, the dragon playing beads is the sun worship, which is the fusion of sun worship and dragon worship.

3. The dragon is divided into male and female, which is also the reason why the two dragons play with many bead patterns. If a pearl lays an egg, it means that both parents care about and care for the child; If pearls are the solution of the sun, then it is the male dragon and the female dragon that greet the rising sun and let the bright sunshine shine on the earth. Furthermore, the two dragons are symmetrical, the dragons are long, the beads are round and smooth, and there is also a sense of composition.

There are two snakes on an island in the west sea. After thousands of years of hard training, they gained the Tao. There is only one chance to become a dragon that can take off. One day, the Jade Emperor sent the palace grass to this small island in the West Sea with a treasure ball, and gave them the treasure ball. Turn them into dragons and go to the heavenly palace. There are two snakes, but there is only one sphere. The two snakes threw the orb around, both in order to make each other change first, both of which were thousands of years of practice. In this way, several months passed quickly, but the dragon that the jade emperor was waiting for never appeared, so he ordered people to go down and have a look. Gongsun Cao reported everything he saw in the West Sea to the Jade Emperor. When the Jade Emperor heard this, he became very angry and ordered people to catch the two snakes. Under interrogation, I found out the situation. Moved by their behavior, they ordered people to take another sphere. Two snakes turned into dragons at the same time. This is also the origin of the two dragons playing with beads, and the dragon balls also represent opportunities.
