The city was broken. Nine of them were soldiers who protected the people and retreated to Tianzhai next to the Snow Lake. Cao soldiers tied them together and beheaded them and threw them into the lake. The lake water was dyed, and from then on the lotus root was born with nine holes, white and firm, and the taste was more crispy than before. Later, in memory of them, Snow Lake was renamed "Blood Lake". 2. This dish is crisp and moist, with moderate sweetness and sweetness.
