The Top Fishing Master

And Li Xiaopeng seemed not to notice the change in everyone's expressions, still singing with deep emotion and dedication.

I head north, leaving the season with you, you said you are so tired, that you can't fall in love with anyone again...

The wind blows along the mountain road, all past scenes are my fault, counting the shame, how many times I hurt you...

He continued singing for quite a few more lines, and everyone simply couldn't take it anymore.

Because this singing voice was really unbearable, what Li Xiaopeng said earlier, about being afraid the ghosts by the roadside couldn't stand it, was truly not an exaggeration.

Because his singing was even more terrifying than the wailing of ghosts and wolves.

His voice wasn't loud at all, but even so, the song sung with such low volume had massive destructive power, making Lin Yang and the others who heard it want to cover their ears and even jump out of the vehicle.

This singing doesn't cost money, but surely it costs lives.

"Stop stop stop!! Xiaopeng, your singing is really good, but let's not sing anymore. If you don't stop, driver, please stop for a moment and let me get off."

"I want to get off too. Northeast isn't that far, just two or three thousand miles, I can walk there."

....

Driving all the way, heading north, the group chatted and laughed along the way, with songs accompanying them.

But after everyone heard Li Xiaopeng's singing, they generally expressed that they never wanted to listen to music again.

Just begged Li Xiaopeng not to open his mouth!

If he insisted on singing, everyone would prefer that music didn't exist in this world.

Along the way, they stopped and explored some interesting places in the cities they passed.

For example, passing Lu Province, they visited the Confucian Holy Land, the saint's hometown; passing Jibei, they went to the city planned for a thousand-year project, to see its future city planning and construction.

They also took a detour to Baiyangdian, a well-known place made famous by Gazi.

The group continued heading towards the Northeast.

Soon, they arrived at their destination, the location of the final competition—Cha Gan Lake.

Cha Gan Lake is renowned nationwide.

And the most famous thing about it is one word—winter fishing.

That's right, this winter fishing naturally refers to fishing, with a grand gathering held every winter at Cha Gan Lake.

Visitors from all over the country and even the globe gather here to participate in this grand meeting.

The theme is singular—fishing.

Generally, Cha Gan Lake's winter fishing uses drag nets, aided by vehicles or livestock to assist manpower, deploying large drag nets in the waters.

The drag net meshes are large, allowing small fish to escape while larger fish are dragged ashore, becoming the winter fishing harvest.

The fish caught here are primarily Fat Head fish, along with some other cold-water species.

Due to the excellent water quality and the extremely cold region of Cha Gan Lake, fish have long growth cycles, resulting in fish with particularly good texture and especially delicious flavor.

Often, fish caught in Cha Gan Lake are quickly snapped up by people, and the prices are significantly higher than similar fish in the general market.

But there's one major characteristic among the people of this country: regardless of the conditions, they are always willing to spend money on food.

Especially some naturally wild flavors, attracting many with interest and enthusiasm.

The fish from Cha Gan Lake, though there might be unspeakable truths about some of them.

Overall, they are still close to a wild state, with taste and quality that are indeed acceptable, so many people favor them.

And this competition is set directly at Cha Gan Lake.

This is also to leverage Cha Gan Lake's fame, attracting everyone to watch this competition.

This competition indeed required significant efforts, as it is peak winter fishing season, and according to the original plan, fishermen would have already started fishing.

But for the competition, the production team and local authorities directly decided to buy out the winter fishing rights of Cha Gan Lake for the year!

This investment is truly tremendous.

This point also drew applause from the audience, exclaiming in delight.

"Wow, didn't expect the production team to be so generous this time, spending so lavishly."

"Yes, yes, buying out a year's winter fishing rights at Cha Gan Lake is no small expense, requiring a lot of silver, and it's definitely sincere."

"After all, it's the final competition, and it's understandable for the production team to spend lavishly."

"Absolutely, as the competition progresses, the number of contestants decreases, but the investment continuously increases."

The remaining contestants are the top, so the competition's standards must match.

Honestly, buying out winter fishing rights at Cha Gan Lake is not just about money.

You have to know, winter fishing at Cha Gan Lake involves many fishermen, and it's not likely to negotiate with each one individually and offer a satisfactory price.

Reaching a buyout agreement probably involves officials as well.

So for this final competition, the officials surely exerted considerable effort as well.

"The program truly put in thought, worthy of such a large production, living up to its title."

"So excited, let the competition begin, I will definitely support with all my might!"

"Support, support, any carefully crafted and heavily invested program and competition must be supported."

Audiences recognized the production team's investment, so the anticipation and praises were generously given.

Soon, as contestants arrived one after another, the production team also settled at Cha Gan Lake.

After setting up, it was time for the day of the competition.
