With beautiful scenery and alternating mountains and rivers, Liu's ancestral hall is the hometown of Liu Lei, the ancestor of the Chinese surname Liu. Liu Lei is the descendant of Yao, the leader of Tao Tang clan in ancient times. He lived in the period of Kong Jia in Xia Dynasty. According to Zuozhuan, Shiji and other documents, when Liu Lei was born, he had a "Liu Lei" pattern in his hand. He thought it was auspicious, so he took it as his name. Liu Lei is famous for his dragon defense and dragon training. He was ordered to cultivate dragons for Kong Jia and was granted the title of "dragon defense clan". Liu Lei fled to Lu county (today's qiugongcheng site in Zhaoping Lake scenic spot) with his family members because he was afraid of Kong Jia's punishment.
