Legend has it that Yu was ordered by Emperor Yao to rule the water, so much so that he was not able to enter his house. Finally, Jiu Ji, who learned his father's lesson of ruling the water, changed the blockage into a dredge and decided to excavate the Dragon Gate, and finally cut a big hole in the Dragon Gate Mountain, so that the river flowed freely from then on.
