Chapter Seven

Steaming Xianghu Lake, thousands of miles of smoke and waves, the dusk is heavy, and the rain is falling

A small building by the lake, the sound of the rain outside

Inside the house, Wang Ge was holding bowls and chopsticks, and on the table was the most famous mandarin fish casserole in Xiangyin County.

The fresh soup is milky white, and the plump mandarin fish is half submerged and half exposed, like agar-agar jade skin covered by a gauze skirt.

A few red wolfberry and ginger slices are simply garnished. The rising heat and the aroma of the fish soup tantalize the nostrils of the diners.

Even if Wang Ge comes from a world of material abundance, after tasting it for a while, he has to sigh with emotion at the delicious aroma of this fish soup.

In the era without MSG and spices, the ultimate umami taste can only be extracted by cooking delicacies from mountains and seas.

Wang Ge found out that the soup for this pot of mandarin fish casserole was made from a series of delicious ingredients such as mushrooms, ham, tendons, young bamboo shoots, whole chicken, and pork bones, and it took a whole day to cook it.

The mandarin fish, which is the staple food, was also fished from Xianghu Lake that day.

It weighs 30 kilograms, which is enough to make a fisherman go home three times without returning.

Tasting delicious food, the hungry Wang Ge was very satisfied.

"Practice martial arts during the day, be determined, and meet a romantic relationship again, with a dead tree in spring, and go home with delicious food to fill your stomach. As for the romantic night?"

"Haha, life is as comfortable as that."

Wang Ge shook his head, just teasing in his heart, not looking for flowers and asking willows, corrupting the mind of essence and blood.

After drinking and eating, Wang Ge just stood in front of the window.

The slanting wind carried the drizzle, brushing his cheeks, bringing a bit of coolness.

Wang Ge stood with his hands behind his hands and looked at the rainy scene outside the window.

The lake is clear, the mist is vast, and it is boundless
A lot of information about this lake flashed through Wang Ge's mind:

"This Xianghu Lake is the foundation for the development of agriculture and fishery in the three fertile counties of Xiangyin, Xiangnan, and West Hunan, and the water network of Xianghu Lake spreads all over the entire Xiangjun. Years ago, there was an evil Jiaojiao that was more than [-] meters long and made waves here in Xiangjun, and the people suffered from waterlogging for a long time.

Later, a goddess held a sword and killed the dragon. She fought for several days and killed the demon. The evil dragon was so big that its body fell into Xiang Lake.

When the evil dragon died, all things came to life. From then on, there were no more floods in Xiang County. Because Xiang Lake was soaked in the precious blood of the evil dragon, it was full of vitality, with abundant water and grass, fat fish and strong rice.

Xiangjun has always been a land of plenty. It can be said that Xiang Lake is the "Mother Lake" of Xiangjun people, with a rich cultural atmosphere. "

As the king of Yue, Wang Ge certainly had to understand the water, soil and people's livelihood in his fiefdom.

Wang Ge raised his head again and looked towards the sky.

The sky was gray and misty and rainy. Not long after Wang Ge came down from Shenshi Mountain, it started to rain in Xiangyin County.

“It’s really rainy here”

Wang Ge whispered, then narrowed his eyes slightly, and a little golden glow bloomed in his pupils.

"The rain will stop in 37 minutes."

The eyes of the bright spirit can understand changes, know the time of the sky, know the location, and see ghosts and gods.

Wang Ge used this ability to see changes in the weather.

Sure enough, after two moments, the rain in the sky stopped.

Then the gray clouds dissipated, and the red sun peeked out, reflecting a colorful cloud.

"Am I a humanoid weather forecaster?"

Wang Ge felt the upper limit of his ability.

There are time and scope limitations in the field of insight into the time and space of his spiritual eyes.

At present, Wang Ge can only see the weather changes in the next month, which is only equivalent to three Xiangyin counties. The longer the time and the farther the distance, the more blurred the prediction results will be.

"With the development of the stone fetus, the upper limit of the Eye of Mingling will definitely increase, and even spy on the climate change of the entire Central Plains!
But, I am aware of the changes in the weather. Apart from reminding myself whether to bring an umbrella when going out, what else can it do? "

Thinking of this, Wang Ge suddenly saw clusters of swaying ears of rice in his sight.

After opening the Spiritual Eyes, Wang Ge found that his eyesight had also become very good. Not to mention clairvoyance, he could see things within ten kilometers clearly, even the hair on a fly's leg.

And also ignored the obstruction of mist, rain and fog.

Wang Ge is now seeing rice fields dozens of kilometers away.

"There are many kinds of rice in Vietnam. At this time of year, what is in the fields now should be early rice. The first batch of grain this year. I remember that Vietnam is a labor force. The agricultural tax is the [-]-[-] tax. This is the owner-cultivator. If If it is a tenant farmer, on the basis of the agricultural tax, [-]% will be halved, and as the king of Yue, how much income can I get from this batch of harvest?"

This question popped up in Wang Ge's mind, and it was indeed related to his interests.

However, his clear eyes also saw that the rice ears in the field were not full enough at the moment, and the grains were still very small. The rice ears were mainly green and yellow, and it should be a week or two before they are truly mature.

"Knowing the time of the sky, I understand the changes. The ripening of grains can be regarded as one of the changes in all things. I can actually see the date when the rice matures."

Wang Ge complained in his heart, and at the same time, he thought of one thing quite worryingly:

"The mysteries of the Eye of the Mingling are definitely not things that mortal martial arts can achieve. This must involve the laws of heaven and earth, and natural good fortune. There are really traces of the existence of gods and demons in this world."

The magic of the Spiritual Eyes made Wang Ge realize that the world was not as simple as martial arts.

Thinking about this, Wang Ge recalled the strange dream of the lonely village that he experienced more than half a month ago.

Immediately afterwards, it was associated with the legend of "Goddess Slaying Jiao" in Xianghu Lake,

"According to myths and legends, the corpse of the evil dragon finally fell into Xiang Lake."

With some inquiring thoughts in mind, Wang Ge looked at Xianghu Lake with the Eye of Mingling.

At a glance, the deep lake water cannot block the visit of this divine pupil.

Wang Ge saw that the deepest part of Xiang Lake was about 40 meters.

"It is said that the corpse of the evil dragon was over a hundred years long, but Xiang Lake is nine hundred miles in size. If such a corpse really sank to the bottom of the lake, I would be no better than finding a needle in a haystack."

Xianghu Lake is too big, its circumference alone is [-] miles, and Wang Ge's current Mingling Eyes can't see the whole situation at the bottom of the lake.

Although he couldn't see the whole picture, Wang Ge still frowned:
"There is 'Qi', an extraordinary Qi."

The Eyes of Ming Ling can peek into the various "qi" flowing between heaven and earth.

A martial artist has blood in his body, princes and nobles have luck, common people have wish power, and all living things have energy. These can all be called "Qi".

And Wang Ge also has the characteristic of "Spirit of Heaven and Earth" who was born knowing it. After taking a look, he knew that the "qi" he saw in the bottom of the lake was a stream of essence.

Plants, trees, flowers and leaves, birds and animals, all living things have essence, and after death, the essence will dissipate and return to nature, participating in the great cycle of heaven and earth.

It stands to reason that it is not surprising to see spirits in the vibrant Xianghu Lake. After all, there are fish, shrimps, crabs and turtles living in the water and land, and there are many creatures.

However, Wang Ge's bright eyes keenly discovered that besides this group of aquatic creatures, there was another source of essence coming from the bottom of the lake.

There is something under the mud at the bottom of the lake, releasing energy into Xiang Lake!
"This! Could it be the corpse of the legendary evil dragon?!" Wang Ge was shocked.

He hurriedly used the essence of the lake bottom as a clue to find out according to the picture.

Soon he locked the range and demarcated the area. A little southwest of the center of Xianghu Lake, there is a narrow and long place about [-] meters long, releasing energy to the outside world.

"A hundred meters long, which matches the length of the legendary evil dragon!"
