説明：
According to the Water Margin, a Chinese novel set in the Song Dynasty (960–1279), the legendary swimmer Chang-Shun could stay underwater for seven days and seven nights without surfacing. Li K'uei was a local bandit whose gang was about to rob a fisherman when Chang-Shun interceded. In the ensuing struggle, the pair fell off a nearby pier into the sea and Chang-Shun plunged his opponent further underwater. Chang-Shun quickly emerged victorious due to Li K'uei’s inability to swim, though they went on to become friends later in the story.
