He voted for Luo Jiang on the fifth day of May. It is said that after Qu Yuan’s investment in Luojiang, the local people heard the news and immediately rowed and rescued. The Dongting Lake had never seen Qu Yuan’s body. In order to mourn, people swayed on the river and then gradually developed into a dragon boat race. The people were afraid that the fish in the river would eat his body and went home to bring the rice group into the river to prevent the fish and shrimp from ruining the body of Qu Yuan. Later, it became the custom of eating dumplings.
