Legend had it that in ancient times, Dragon Gate Grotto often suffered floods, wiping out cities and fields.
One year, due to a prolonged rain upstream, the water level kept rising. The experienced elders knew that there was going to be a flood and began moving higher up the mountain.
In the story, a child was playing on the shore when he heard a strange sound coming from the water. It sounded like someone was saying, "Open or not… Open or not…"
The child thought nothing of it. Two days later, a major flood really began upstream. The commoners watched their fields and city flooding and felt extremely miserable.
Although they had brought everything that they could bring with them, once the disaster was over, the fields would be ruined. There would be nothing to eat in the coming year, resulting in a definite famine.
