"Yes, a long time ago, there was a lake beneath the back mountain.
We've never seen it, but later that area dried up, not a drop of water left."

When we arrived yesterday, there weren't many people left in this area.
Counting the two children, there were twenty-five people.
After eating, the village chief invited everyone over.
