"That's not the case." Zhao Gongming said, "I passed by Weizhou County some time ago and went to Gaojiazhuang to see the Diao brothers. Diao Laoer had some wine that day and was happy, so he gave me a Qimen hexagram. What kind of hexagram is a dead tree blooming in spring? What kind of God's will is it to force me to be a man again? Diao Laoer doesn't know how to talk nonsense, so..."
That's why Zhao Gongming had this idea.
"Oh, that's it." Xiao Chen's heart moved, and he thought of a beautiful woman...an old beauty.
"By the way, why did you send me a message to ask me to come back?" Zhao Gongming asked.
"What do you think this is?" Xiao Chen didn't answer, but took out the horn hairpin from his arms and handed it to him.
"Master, why do you still have a hairpin on your body... Where did it come from!" Zhao Gongming took it and took a look under the lamp, his expression suddenly changed drastically!
"A woman I met at sea gave it to me and asked me to return it to you. Her name is Song Qingmei." Xiao Chen said.
"It's been more than thirty years." Zhao Gongming gently stroked the hairpin with a gentle look on his face, "It turns out that she hasn't forgotten me yet. She still keeps this hairpin. Is she... okay? ?”
"It looks good." Xiao Chen said.
"Yeah, but it's thirty years in a snap. Thirty years..." Zhao Gongming raised his head and shed two tears.
Xiao Chen and Fatty were both shocked, because they felt that this old man Zhao Gongming could do anything, but he would never shed tears...
"Why have you arrived at Penglai Island?" Zhao Gongming wiped away his tears and said solemnly.
"No, I met her at sea. She came here on a shark." Xiao Chen said hurriedly.
"Well, that's good." Zhao Gongming suddenly showed a hint of fear in his eyes, "But why did she come to you? Didn't that old monster show up?"
"Old man, are you talking about Dongfang Yunchi?" Xiao Chen said, "He didn't show up. There were only Song Qingmei and her apprentice. At that time, she..."
Xiao Chen told everything about the incident.
"Oh, that's great!" Zhao Gongming was overjoyed, "It turns out that Senior Nine Fingers personally came to help. I wish him good health and a long life!"
"Old man, what is your... relationship with that Song Qingmei?" Xiao Chen finally couldn't help but ask.
"It's been decades old, and I have almost forgotten it. I thought Qingmei had forgotten it too... Do you two boys want to hear it?" Zhao Gongming took a long breath and picked up the wine glass. , drink it all in one gulp.
Xiao Chen and the fat man nodded together, one lit up the lanterns, and the other carried a pot to pour him wine.
"I was only thirty years old at that time, an age that no one would accept." Zhao Gongming narrowed his eyes and talked about the past, "I heard that there is Penglai Island in the East China Sea, and there is a half-immortal on the island who has become a peerless person. He also founded some kind of Canghai Sword Sect, which is invincible in the world. Hehe, I was not convinced at all, so I went to meet him for a meeting."
Zhao Gongming is a man who never stops working until he achieves his goal. Although the fairy island is difficult to find, he finally found it after half a year.
He was quite surprised to see that the leader of the Canghai Sword Sect was a woman. Based on the principle that a good man should not fight with a woman, he was about to leave, but he angered Song Qingmei, who was also very young at the time. He immediately drew his sword. Force each other!
Song Qingmei was only in her twenties at that time. Although the Canghai Sword Technique he had mastered was extremely miraculous, his skill was far less profound than that of Zhao Gongming.
The two exchanged more than a thousand moves, but there was no winner.
Zhao Gongming wanted to leave, but Song Qingmei wouldn't let him go, saying that he had to tell the difference.
As a result, the two of them fought for several months without a winner. They admired each other and developed a little strange feeling...
When he was young, Zhao Gongming was also a very masculine and handsome boy, and Song Qingmei was also a beautiful girl. They competed together every day, and they would inevitably touch hands and feet during the exchanges. It was more or less an intimate act.
During the free time between competitions, Song Qingmei would drink with him and listen to him talk about things in the world. One could talk and the other liked to listen. Unknowingly, they both had secret feelings for each other.
On a night of thunder and lightning, both of them were a little drunk, so something happened that should not have happened, or should have happened...
After the incident happened, Song Qingmei told her that she was a wife and her husband was a dragon!
If Zhao Gongming knew that she was married, he would never have any intimate relationship with her, but now that things have happened, he has no regrets... In fact, he has no regrets until now.
He wasn't afraid of Dongfang Yunchi or the divine dragon Water Dragon, but Song Qingmei was very afraid, scared to death.
She said that once Dongfang Yunji knew that the two of them were together, he would be furious. Not only would he kill Zhao Gongming, but he would also severely punish himself and even imprison himself on the bottom of the sea, never to see the light of day...
Zhao Gongming wanted to take Song Qingmei away, but Song Qingmei said that she could not leave the island at all. Even if she left, no matter how big the world is, Dongfang Yunchi will still be able to find us!
Zhao Gongming himself was not afraid of death, but he was afraid that the woman he loved would be tortured because of him, so he was passionate and committed suicide with a knife!
This can prove Song Qingmei's innocence.
For people like Zhao Gongming, it is actually much harder to commit suicide than commit suicide, but even if he dies, he cannot prove Song Qingmei's innocence, so he has no choice but to do so.
He also felt that he had no face to see others. After leaving Penglai Island, he withdrew from the world and kept his name anonymous. Later, he gave up on himself and simply entered the palace and became a eunuch.
The Emperor of the Han Dynasty knew that he was a hero and never regarded him as a eunuch, but treated him as a national scholar. Therefore, after Zhu Chou died, Zhao Gongming also treated him as a national scholar!
In the past thirty years, he has never been to Penglai Island again, and he has never heard from Song Qingmei. However, this bad fate has always lingered in his heart, making him never forget it, but he just kept silent.
Today I suddenly saw the keepsake from back then, and all my emotions could no longer be suppressed and were all vented.
"You Zhao Gongming shouldn't be so cowardly!" Fatty felt suffocated when he heard this, "You should have fought with him then, so what could you have done?"
"Fighting with him will only lead to death, so there's nothing wrong with that." Zhao Gongming sighed, "It's just that Qingmei and I are wrong after all. How can we have the nerve to risk our lives after stealing someone's wife? Besides, it’s not a pity for me to die, but Qingmei has to suffer for it... It’s all about fate, and I deserve it!”
"Then you won't..." The fat man was speechless.
"I heard from Zhang Jiuzhi that Song Qingmei was also occupied by that evil dragon. There was no affection between the two of them, and there was no reputation at all. Your old man should have fought with him at that time." Xiao Chen also said Hold your breath for Zhao Gongming.
"Didn't I just know this after hearing what you said?" Zhao Gongming said, "Qingmei didn't tell me this at the time. Maybe she was afraid that I would fight with that evil dragon and kill her, right?"
In any case, things have happened. There is no use saying anything now, and there is no use regretting it. But the problem is, Zhao Gongming does not regret it.
Because Song Qingmei is still alive and still remembers him, this is enough.
