（单词翻译）

 At the Dragon Pool Temple, close to the first bank, I was meeting up with Hewen Wang, a Naxi musician, comes from a long line of local priests. For thousands of years, powerful dragon gods and Yangtze River have been part of Chinese folklore1.-Could you tell us a little bit about your beliefs in relation to the river?

-According to Naxi culture, god had two wives. The first wife gave birth to the natural world, the rivers, lakes, seas and all living creatures. The second wife gave birth to human beings. That's why we believe that man and nature are very closely related. So you always worship nature and worship Yangtze River. These beliefs are the cornerstone about faith.
-What powers does the dragon god have?
-The dragon god is responsible for the climate of the earth. If we offended the dragon god, there could be a draught2 or flood, and villages and fields would be destroyed. So we must worship and respect him, so that we will have a good harvest and a good life.
