Shangguan Zhongzhi said: "Even so, the specific situation of Daze Lake should be roughly clarified." I guess I have all known what incredible and strange phenomena it has. ”

Shangguan Qingyun, the king of Qi, said: "It is said that on the surface, this Daze Lake is actually not too special. It is nothing more than a large seasonal natural lake formed by five tributaries from the south and west before they officially merge into the main channel of the Yellow River. ”

Shangguan Zhongzhi said: "I understand this, because I have read hydrological books on this subject. In places where many rivers converge, some seasonal lakes are often formed naturally in some low-lying areas. In normal times, they may store very little water, or even dry up temporarily. But when the flood season comes, these lands will suddenly flood with a large amount of excess water, and they will become veritable lakes again. ”

Shangguan Qingyun, the king of Qi, said: "Yes, that's exactly the case. But there is another very striking feature of this Osawa Lake, that is, it is an irregular gourd shape as a whole. To the south is a narrow entrance about a mile long, which suddenly grows larger, and then about three miles later there is another narrow passage, about two or three hundred meters, and then there is a large expanse of water. ”

At this point, he paused slightly, and then continued: "Actually, the so-called 'Devil's Waters' and 'Forbidden Land of Death' refer to the vast expanse of water at the back. And it is said that in the early years, this last piece was really not so big, and it was only after the Yellow River was diverted to the north more than 300 years ago that it slowly became what it is now. ”

Shangguan Zhongzhi said: "It is indeed mentioned in the history books of the diversion of the Yellow River that time, and it is said that it moved about a hundred miles north at once, and it was also the current location of Bohai County. It is precisely because of this that today's Daze Lake is also called the old road of the Yellow River, also known as the old estuary. ”

Shangguan Qingyun, the king of Qi, said: "In addition, the biggest feature of this Daze Lake is that it is covered with perennial fog on the water surface. It's a little better in spring and summer, but it's great in autumn and winter, and it's said that sometimes you just don't hear it. ”

Shangguan Zhongzhi said: "Is it the entire body of water, or is it just the vast body of water behind it?" ”

Shangguan Qingyun, King of Qi, said: "It is said that it should be said that it is the entire body of water, but the situation in the large area behind it is even more severe." In addition, the first two waterways and the first wider body of water were also relatively shallow, and they were full of dense reeds. The vast expanse of water behind it is quite different, and it is said that the water level in it is extremely deep, and the deepest point seems to be more than 100 meters. ”

Shangguan Zhongzhi said: "By the way, father, I suddenly remembered something. What is the situation around the vast body of water behind it, is it ordinary farmland, or is it some hilly and mountainous area? ”

Shangguan Qingyun, the king of Qi, said: "Actually, even if you ask, I will immediately talk about another major feature of this Daze Lake." Let me tell you the truth, the area around the Devil's Waters over there is neither ordinary farmland nor hills and mountains, but a continuous swampy area. ”

Shangguan Zhongzhi said: "What, swampy area? ”

Shangguan Qingyun, the king of Qi, said: "Yes, it is a swamp area, and it is also the so-called death swamp!" ”

Shangguan Zhongzhi said: "I seem to understand something, this endless fog coupled with the death swamp on the periphery is indeed an extremely harsh environment. And the water level in there is so deep, if you add the perennial windy weather on the east coast, this is really a headache. ”

Shangguan Qingyun, the king of Qi, said: "Okay, you also roughly understand the specific situation of this Daze Lake, now you should continue to return to the topic and tell me what you really think." ”

Shangguan Zhongzhi said: "I can't hide it, what I'm most worried about now, that is, that Yang Wenyue is very likely to have a certain relationship with the evil gods of the East China Sea." What's more, this time the robbery incident of the Seven Star Dart Bureau may really be the ghost of the East China Sea evil gods who are secretly making trouble. ”

Shangguan Qingyun, the king of Qi, said: "Good boy, no wonder when I entered the Beijing Division this time, even our Tianwei Emperor was vigorously praising you and the two of you." From this point of view, our Qi Diguan clan is really a successor. Let's not talk about your three step-by-step, diligent brothers, just you and the fifth brother, your brothers are literate and martial, which is enough to make the old man and me feel very comforted. ”

Speaking of this, he glanced at Shangguan Zhongzhi approvingly, and then said with a smile: "It's not a secret, my father really didn't expect that your kid could have such a keen insight and the ability to draw inferences." Not bad, not bad, really good! Okay, let's talk about it, how did you kid think of the remnants of the East China Sea Evil God. ”

Shangguan Zhongzhi said: "Actually, my child, I suddenly thought of Liu Tianhao and Mr. Liu's dart head from the Shadowless Daoist Brother Liu outside. Then, from the secret relationship between President Liu's dart head and our Qi Palace, I thought of the key position where their Wuliang Mountain chief helm was located. Finally, from some of the turmoil on the eastern coast over the years, I thought of the evil gods of the East China Sea and their remnants of the previous dynasty. ”

Shangguan Qingyun, the king of Qi, said: "Beautiful, your kid really wants to go with his father, hehehe." In this way, you can let General Ma go back first, because you have completely explained what he knows, and naturally there is no need for him to accompany us here. ”

Shangguan Zhongzhi said: "The child understands, then I will go out now, let General Ma go back first, and then call the Shadowless Dao people in." ”

Speaking of this, he suddenly seemed to remember something again, and hurriedly continued: "By the way, father, do you want General Ma to call Brother Lu over by the way, let's listen to his opinion." ”

Shangguan Qingyun, the king of Qi, said: "Forget it, don't call him yet, lest the big guy have any more suspicion in his heart." In this way, the three of us will discuss it roughly first, and then wait until the evening to formally come up with a charter. ”

Shangguan Zhongzhi said: "Well, the child understands." In addition, the Ma Xiaotian outside, the child is also very optimistic about him. This person is also calm, brave and strategic, and he is really a rare figure under the fifth brother's account. ”

Shangguan Qingyun, the king of Qi, said: "Yes, your vision is really good." In fact, their Ouyang Qianping is also okay, and with a little grinding in the future, it will not be difficult for these two people to become good generals in their own right. Okay, you can go quickly. ”

Hearing this, Shangguan Zhongzhi hurriedly got up and walked out, and soon he brought in Liu Peisheng, a shadowless Daoist outside.

After Liu Peisheng stepped forward to greet the salute and was given a seat, Shangguan Qingyun, the king of Qi, asked lightly: "I said, Pearson, you must already know about the Seven Star Dart Bureau, right?" ”

Liu Peisheng said: "Back to the prince, when I was on duty outside just now, General Ma had already given his subordinates a general introduction to the matter of the Seven Star Dart Bureau in accordance with the instructions of the fourth master. ”

Shangguan Qingyun, the king of Qi, said: "Since this is the case, then you can talk about it, what do you think of this matter?" ”

Liu Peisheng said: "This, this subordinate really hasn't thought about it, so naturally he doesn't know how to speak." ”

Shangguan Qingyun, the king of Qi, said: "Okay, since you kid is so cautious, then I will no longer force you to be the king." In this way, I would like to ask you to leave tonight today and make a trip to Mount Wuliang in person. Well, do you understand what this king means? ”

Liu Peisheng said: "If the little guess is good, Lord Wang, you want me to go to Wuliang Mountain earlier and meet my senior brother Liu Tianhao in person." Figure out the ins and outs of this matter first, and then consider the next specific plan. ”

Shangguan Qingyun, the king of Qi, said: "Yes, that's exactly the case. In this way, you can go back and pack up now, and then go to Wuliang Mountain alone overnight. ”
