《资治通鉴·汉纪·汉纪十二》
黄帝在首山开采铜矿，在荆山下铸造宝鼎。宝鼎铸成之后，天上有一条龙将龙须垂下来接引黄帝，于是，黄帝骑上龙背，和群臣及后宫妃嫔七十余人一起登天成了神仙。  
黄帝采首山铜，铸鼎于荆山下，鼎既成，有龙垂胡髯下迎黄帝，黄帝上骑龙，与群臣后宫七十馀人俱登天。  
The Yellow Emperor mined for copper in Shoushan and cast the valuable tripod at the foot of Mount Jing. After the valuable tripod was cast, a dragon from Heaven lowered its whiskers to carry off the Yellow Emperor. The Yellow Emperor thus mounted the dragon's back and, along with his ministers and more than 70 consorts, ascended to Heaven to become an immortal.
