Because the Chu people could not bear to part with the sage Qu Yuan and died in the river, many people rowed boats to catch up and save them. They rushed to catch up with each other, but when they got to Dongting Lake, there was no trace of them. Since then, people have been rowing dragon boats on May 5th every year to commemorate it.
