[Story] Once upon a time, in a well-known town, there was a crowd of people who loved to wear crowns. However, one day, a heavy rainstorm hit the town, and the people found themselves in danger of drowning. They quickly took off their crowns and lay down on the ground to avoid the rising water. In the end, everyone was safe, and they realized that it was better to own nothing than to owe their lives to material possessions.
