蛟龍(上加爻反郭注山海經云蛟似虵而四脚小頭細頸卯生子如一二斛甖大者十數圍能吞人淮南子曰一淵不兩蛟龍丈龍屬也䰿魚滿三千六百則蛟來為之長也)。
Flood dragon (蛟龍: the upper character has the fanqie jiā + yáo [jiāo]; Guo's commentary on the Shanhaijing states: 'The jiāo resembles a snake with four feet, a small head, and a slender neck; it is born from eggs, with hatchlings the size of one or two hu jars, and large ones measuring dozens of girths, capable of swallowing humans'; the Huainanzi states: 'One abyss cannot harbor two flood dragons; it is of the dragon kind; when there are full three thousand six hundred fish, a jiāo arrives to become their leader').
