The founder tried to cut the Ding into smaller parts, so it would be easier to hide the Ding from japanese troops occupying the area. But the Ding was too sturdy, they only managed to cut one ear off. SImuwu was then buried and unearthed again in 1946. Now the original is collected in the National Museum in Beijing.
