There are three main textual descriptions of the image of the candle dragon in ancient documents, which are from the "Classic of Mountains and Seas", "Huainanzi" and Guo Pu's "Notes on the Classic of Mountains and Seas". The three theories are all human heads and dragon bodies, which are similar to each other.

Huainanzi":"The candle dragon is in the north of Yanmen, hidden in the mountain of Weiyu, and the sun is not seen, and its god and man face the dragon body and have no feet. "

Guo Pu's "Notes on the Classic of Mountains and Seas":""Huainanzi" said: (Candle Dragon) The dragon has one foot. "

In ancient times, there are clouds in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas: The Great Wilderness North Classic": beyond the Northwest Sea, north of Chishui, there is Zhangwei Mountain. There is a god, with a human face and a snake body, and his eyes are straight.

Its eyes are obscure, and its sights are clear. No food, no sleep, no rest, wind and rain are admonishable. It is the candle nine yin, and it is called the candle dragon.

Same as the "Classic of Mountains and Seas, Overseas North Classic" clouds: the god of Zhongshan, known as candle yin, is regarded as day, eyes for night, blowing for winter, calling for summer, no drinking, no eating, no rest, breathing for the wind, thousands of miles long. In the east of the boundless. It is a thing, a human face, a snake body, red, and lives under the bell mountain.

Warring States Period "Chu Ci Tianwen": If the day is not good, how can the candle dragon shine?Wang Yi of the Han Dynasty commented on this sentence of "Chu Ci" and said: There is a country of darkness and no sun in the northwest of the sky, and there is a dragon rank candle and illuminates it. It is believed that the candle dragon shines on the northwest netherworld with its fire candle.

Coincidentally, Guo Pu of the Jin Dynasty noted the "Great Wilderness North Classic" candle dragon quote "Poetry with Divine Mist": the sky is not enough in the northwest, and there is no news of yin and yang, so there is a dragon fire essence to illuminate the gate of heaven. Modern mythologist Yuan Ke doubts Wang Yi's so-called"candles", that's it"Fire Spirit"。

The real identity of the candle dragon is Li Hannan.

Zhuge Liang's first Northern Expedition was completely shattered due to the loss of the Jieting, and the army had to return to Hanzhong. The key to the loss of the street pavilion this time was that the news from the White Emperor was wrong, which led Zhuge Liang to strategically misjudge the enemy's direction. The mistake of intelligence is inseparable from the White Emperor in any case.

So Si Wencao sent Xun Xu to investigate, but as Xun Xu investigated, he found that Si Wencao's interior had already been infiltrated, and this person was Candle Dragon.

The mystery of the candle dragon made Xun Xu and Chen Gong feel a sense of powerlessness. The failure of the Northern Expedition caused it to bear great pressure in the DPRK. Si Wencao has always obeyed Zhuge Liang, but in order to calm the anger of the public, Zhuge Liang had to take the initiative to demote.

At this time, Hu Zhong, a confidant close to Li Yan, recommended a person who was once dismissed and deposed by Zhuge Liang as a citizen, and hated Zhuge Liang extremely much. This person is none other than Li Hannan, who spoke up for Ma Jian at the beginning.

Judging from the camp he belongs to, Hu Zhong is Li Yan's person, and he is also a confidant. In order to get the news of Si Wencao, he also deliberately let Hu Zhong enter.

Judging from the current plot, Hu Zhong is not very suspicious, so it is very likely that the TV series has changed the identity of Candle Dragon. In the original work, Candle Dragon is a double agent, not only Cao Wei's spy, but also Zhuge Liang himself who sacrificed himself. All the actions of the candle dragon are at the disposal of Zhuge Liang, and the Lost Street Pavilion is Zhuge Liang's careful planning.
