history

A long time ago, there was a young man and woman who loved each other. The man's name was ah Kun, and the woman's name was ah Zhu. Because they could not bear the bullying of local tyrants, they left their hometown and came to a place where there were no people and only mountains of thorns and towering ancient trees. It was desolate everywhere. Ah Kun and ah Zhu are very hardworking. They build houses to open up wasteland. They work at sunrise and rest at sunset. They live happily.

One year, there was a big drought, and the crops failed. They had no food to eat and no water to drink. They had to hunt in the mountains and get water from the caves. One day, ah Kun and ah Zhu went to a cave, and saw a stream of water flowing down the cliff. There was a pool deep in the cliff, and there was a dying carp beside the pool. Ah Kun picked up the carp and prepared to take it home. Ah Zhu saw that the carp was crying, so he couldn't bear it, so he put the carp back into the pool. When they were full of water, they went home.

It was still dry. Ah Kun and ah Zhu couldn't bear to watch the green seedlings dry up and die. So they picked up the bucket, put on straw sandals, and went over the mountains to carry water to irrigate the seedlings. They got up early and felt dark every day. Although they could only go back and forth a few times, they were not discouraged. They had been picking and picking for ninety-nine days, and they were on their shoulders His arm was swollen, his waist was bent, and big blood blisters were worn out at the bottom of his feet. However, they continued to carry the bucket and walk on the long and rugged road.

One night, they had a strange dream together. In the dream, a carp turned into a young girl and told them that she was the daughter of the God of water, the carp they had released. Now she came to repay their kindness. She had brought water to their house, and there were many carp in the water. In the early morning of the next day, they rushed to the stone wall in front of the door and began to dig. After a while, a clear spring came out from under the stone. The water became bigger and bigger, and soon it became a big pool of water. With the water, many fat and big carp came out. Ah Kun and ah Zhu picked up the clear spring water with great joy and tears. Ah Kun and ah Zhu quickly carried stones from the mountain, surrounded the spring, and dug a ditch along the foot of the mountain to lead the water to the fields. From then on, no matter how much drought they encounter, their seedlings will never die, and they will no longer have to go to distant places to carry water.

Many years later, the children and grandchildren of a Kun and a Zhu reclaimed the dam full of weeds and turned it into good farmland. The pond flows continuously all the year round. It is said that a Kun and a Zhu have become a pair of green dragons. They live at the bottom of the pond and dredge the channel for people every year to protect the spring. So people call the pond Longtan, and the fat carp also live in it When people come home from work in the evening, they can grab a few. When it comes to cooking at home, because there are fish all over the dam, people call this place liyuba.
