The story says that in the Sui Dynasty, there was a rich man named Li Qing in Qingzhou. This year, he was on his 60th birthday. The birthday gift he wanted was not gold and silver, but a hemp rope for each person. On this day, people were asked to connect the hemp rope and tie a basket at one end. He took a gong in his hand and sat down in the basket. People were asked to gradually put him in the grottoes and arranged to pick him up when he heard the gong. But people waited for a day and a night, but they didn't hear the gong. They pulled up the basket and disappeared Li Qing. They had no choice but to go home. It turned out that Li Qing was playing gongs at the bottom of the cave, but he didn't pull him up for a long time, so he had to walk along the bottom of the cave. After walking for a long time, he saw two old men with white beard playing chess, so he looked up. I don't know how long later, when the old man left, he said, don't open the window on the north wall. But Li Qingshi couldn't help but open the window and found that the window was his hometown.
