There is a village called Camel Village in Longquan Township, Jingyang County. The residents of this village are mainly camel surnames. There is an interesting legend about the origin of this village.
According to legend, at the end of the Ming Dynasty, after the peasant rebels led by Li Chuangzi and Wang captured Beijing, the Dashun Dynasty moved to Beijing and overthrew the Ming Dynasty, and Emperor Chongzhen hanged himself in Meishan.
The royal family who lived in the palace at that time fled Beijing in two teams. One of them fled to Yunnan and Guizhou in the Southern Dynasties, and was intercepted and killed by the rebels on the way. The other fled to Shaanxi after spending money in Beijing.
When the team went to the south foot of North Cragginess Mountain in Jingyang County, it was exhausted and had to be temporarily stationed. After living for a period of time, they found that this area is far from the capital, with simple folk customs and superior natural conditions, so they built a village to settle down. These royal families who fled the capital did not dare to reveal their true identity, so they had to remain anonymous and live an ordinary life.

The meaning of the name Camel Village:
The royal family who fled the capital changed the name of the Zhu clan of the Ming royal family to "hey", that is, the word "people" under the word "Zhu" was written next to the word "Wu", which meant that Zhu could not stand out.
He also changed the surname of the foreigners accompanying him to "Luo", which is a combination of the words "Ming" and "Wei (Quan)", meaning "Quan Ming". Because they have many families, that is, the combination of two words is the name of the village, which has been circulated for hundreds of years. Today, the villagers in this village still claim to be descendants of the Zhu family of the Ming Dynasty.
