The legend of the bridge
Once upon a time, the sea was very calm and there were never waves. Because there is a divine treasure iron at the bottom of the tianhe river in the sea, the golden hoop stick of Ruyi is to calm the sea. When the boat encounters a windy day, only a sail is opened three feet above the water surface, (the sail of the sailboat is still two or three feet away from the sea surface.) When there was no wind, he used two bamboo poles to beat the waves on the surface of the sea to push the boat forward.
Later, Sun Wukong went to the Dragon Palace to borrow treasures and took away the golden hoop sticks of the divine treasure iron at the bottom of the Tianhe River, and from then on, when there was a windy day, the sea rolled in waves, and the ships were not used by the sails.
Once, a boat ran aground and buried in the sea, two fishermen struggled to lift it, and the bottom of the boat stuck in the mud. Moti couldn't bring it up either, so anxious that they circled around the ship. Tired, they inadvertently leaned toward the stern, strangely, the boat would move. They thought that if there were bamboo poles in the stern, the boat would not have entered, but they would not be able to grasp the direction of the bow.
Once, they were fishing in the sea, there was no wind or waves in the sea, and the two of them sat on the edge of the boat, and accidentally saw a big fish in the sea, with its tail swinging from side to side, swimming in one direction. They thought, if there is a piece of wood like a fish's tail at the stern, can't the boat also move forward? And then they really tried. Found flat wood will not swing. One day, they passed by a place and saw a man grinding things with stones, and they thought that the stone mill could turn like that, because of the effect of grinding the heart, and if the stern of the ship was equipped with the same wood as the grinding heart, the flat wood was drilled in a shallow hole, so that the fishtail wood would be left and right
After experimentation, the results were successful. Later, it was thought that this thing was invented by two fishermen, but they did not know their names, only their surname Lu, because the thing was made of wood
So I added the word "Lu" to the side of a wood, and named that thing. In this way, the "bridge" came down.
