One day, he came to the edge of the pool and threw the "Meilong" (bronze mirror) which he carried with him into the dead pool. The dead pool became a hot spring. The handle of the "Meilong" left a hole in the mountain, and the hot spring water flowed into the Pugong ditch from the mouth of the cave, and became the flowing water.
