According the Biblical record, Adam lived 930 years and he died, Abramham died at the age of 175. In Chinese myths, or semi-history, the first of the Three Sovereigns Fuxi lived for 197 years altogether, while Peng Zu supposedly lived 800 years. Longest-lived vertebrate on earth is tortoise or kind of fish called Koi. Tortoises are known to have lived more than 150 years. A longest-lived Koi named Hanako whose death on July 17, 1977 ended a 226 year life span. A maximum life expectancy of human being is about 120 years according with current data. There are skepticism towards the long life span, scientific evidence in biochemistry of aging and theological explanation that God intervened to shorten man's life from 900 to 120. But none of these hypothesis can actually solve the problem of  this dramatic change in human life spans. There could be another hypothesis added to current ones, that is, the YEAR in Adam's time might be shorter due to the evolution of the univer...

Dragons live entirely on moonlight, their strength waxes and wanes with the moon itself. To get rid of elves by alphabetical order spell: "Away, abominable airy apparitions! Begone, beastly blighted banshees! Cease chasing, colorful ...

In the book of Dragon Rider by Cornelia Funke ,  the silver dragon hid in the basilisk cavern, he was nearly killed by the basilisk, but the professor Barnabas Greenbloom saved him. Acording to the legend, Basilisk was the most terrible monster, the mere sound of their voices or one glance from their terrible eyes is usually enough to kill. But a basilisk can't survive the sight of its own reflection, so Professor Greenbloom killed it by a mirror. The ancient Egyptians knew about those monsters, they thought the basilisk hatched from a poisoned ibis egg. However, another theory claims that a basilisk is born when a five-year-old cockerel lays an egg, which fortunately doesn't happen every often. In Chinese traditional culture, there was a type of magic mirror called Monster-reveal Mirror, that shows a monster for what it really is.   Chinese people may fit a mirror on the middle of the front wall of a new house to keep monsters away from their house.
