Anna: Oh, how does the story begin
Wang Ming: Well, once upon a time, there was a very old man. There were two mountains near his house. They were so high and big that it took a long time to walk to the other side.
Anna: So what happened next

常用作故事开头
e.g. Once upon a time, there lived three monks in a small temple.
Wang Ming: Well, the old man told his family that they should all help him to move the mountains.
Anna: Mm, but an old man probably couldn't even move a small tree.
Wang Ming: Yes, that's what his wife said, too.
Anna: And where would they put all the earth and stone from the mountains
Wang Ming: Yu Gong said they could put it into the sea because it's big enough to hold everything. So they all started digging the next day.
