[Another bigger bathtub]IDX

There were two travellers from different places.
They rested in a tavern.
Both were gossiping about unusual things in their own hometowns.

One man said:
"In my hometown, there is a big bathtub.
 (Even) when over a thousand people get in to bathe at the same time, 
 there remains free space (in it)."

Another man then said:
"That bathtub still cannot be said unusual.
 In my hometown there are bamboos.
 (They) grow from the earth, and are about to reach the heaven.
 There is no place (for them) to grow further.
 So (they) bend downward,
 and then (grow) towards the earth.
 It is this which can be truly (said) an unusual thing."

The previous man hearing it then said:
"How can there be such a big bamboo?"

The (latter) man then replied:
"If there is no such a bamboo as I said,
 how can they (ever) put the hoops on such a big bathtub as you said?"
