Shixi has been thinking about the Dragon Boat Festival for a long time.

Look at the transmitter in front of the inn building.

Thunder is faint when the drum is moving,

The snow is slight at the head of the beast.

Rushing waves stand out from the crowd,

Jump the waves and fight for the birds to fly back.

Kong Lung didn’t believe me,

Sure enough, I won the championship.

In order to measure the outcome of the race, the Tang people created a "championship" competition system, which means that when the dragon boat reaches the end, the winner is judged by grabbing the buoy, and the winner is the winner. Drums are beating, ships are flying in unison, scrambling, scaring waterfowl flying around, just to win the championship.
