As for the origin of this Lock Longjing, one person-Liu Bowen is indispensable. Legend has it that in the Ming Dynasty, an old dragon king tried to drown Beijing, but the old dragon king failed and was surrendered by Liu Bowen. He was locked in the well by a big chain. Liu Bowen left a message to appease the old dragon king who was frustrated.
"When the bridge is old, the wings of the bridge will be built." It is time for the old dragon king to see the light of day again. But the clever Liu Bowen and people didn't really build a bridge on this well, but built a Wang Yue Temple on this well. What's more commendable is that the name of this temple is "Beixinqiao".
Great, the "North New Bridge" will never be old, and the wings of the bridge will never be repaired, so the old dragon king will not leave the well.
This is the origin of Lock Longjing. According to this story, until today, there should still be an "old dragon king" locked in this Longjing. But we all know that dragons are creatures invented by ancient ancestors and don't really exist.
However, some strange things happened in this lock dragon well that science can't explain. For example, if we lock the big chain next to Longjing by hand, we will find that there is water rising from the lock of Longjing.
Moreover, according to relevant investigations, the Japanese invaders of that year also paid attention to this Lock Longjing. Beijingers were once forced to pull this big chain, but they didn't wait until the people finished pulling it.
I heard the rumble of Lock Longjing, and the black water kept pouring out, accompanied by a foul smell. The brutal Japanese invaders were also frightened, and they quickly asked people to loosen the chain, so there was no idea of locking Longjing again.
After our science and technology have developed to a high enough level, we may be able to unlock the secret of Lock Longjing. But now, let's keep an awe of things with metaphysical colors.
