Chapter 66: The Origin of the Immortals

Seeing the inquiry, Renzong explained: Zhao Xuanlang, a native of Zhao Dacun at the end of the Qin Dynasty, was born at dusk on March 15 of that year when it was about to dark. He grew up in a poor family, and in his youth he made a living carrying timber for a timber trader. A few years later, after Zhao Xuanlang had accumulated some money, he borrowed some money from his fellow workers, and with courage, courage and integrity, he became a timber merchant and carried out business.

Because of his far-sightedness and broad-mindedness, his customers naturally trusted him and rushed to do business with him, and over the years, he amassed a huge fortune. During this period, someone once borrowed him 100 gold to do business, but unexpectedly, he suffered a natural disaster and lost his capital, and he was unable to repay his debts for a while. And Zhao Xuanlang, who got the reason, only asked him to return a pair of chopsticks, offsetting all the debts owed to him. It seems that this is rich and benevolent, and there are many things to reap both righteousness and benefit...... After accumulating huge wealth, Zhao Xuanlang still has the ambition to help the world, help the poor, and act generously. Not only did he give generously to the country's military needs, but he even personally participated in the army to fight, and was rewarded by the monarch many times for his bravery. However, Zhao Xuanlang's ambition was by no means limited to this, while he was engaged in business, he also visited various famous Taoist scholars in various mountains and rivers to study the truth, and after attaining the Tao and ascending to immortality, he domesticated a black tiger that had harassed the people of the plains as his mount. In the end, he was revered by Taoism as the 'Golden Dragon Ruyi Zhengyi Dragon Tiger Xuantan Zhenjun', with the Taoist protector of the gods......

'Then what does he have to do with our Zhao family?' After hearing this, Zhao Weiming couldn't help but ask. 'It really has a lot to do with it!' Renzong nodded and said, "It is said that Zhao Hongyin, the father of Taizu, was reincarnated by Zhao Xuanlang. ''Is this true?'Is there a source?!' Zhao Weiming suddenly became interested. Renzong nodded again and told Zhao Weiming a story. It was still during the Zhenzong period of this dynasty: one day, Zhenzong met Xuanzu Zhao Hongyin in a dream. But the ancestor in the dream told him that his real name was Zhao Xuanlang, and he was reincarnated in order to let his descendants help the world and turn into Zhao Hongyin and come to the world. After listening, although Zhao Weiming was still a little skeptical, he had roughly figured out Zhao Xuanlang's origin and relationship with the Zhao family, and this trip could be said to have been very rewarding.

Seeing that it was not early, I thought that Li Hongsleeve must be alone in the inn at this time. hurriedly said goodbye to Renzong and the Empress Dowager, and wanted to leave the palace. Unexpectedly, as soon as he put his son on his back, he took a step when he was stopped by the Queen Mother. She said, "You want to wander the rivers and lakes, go to the rivers and lakes by yourself, but this child is a descendant of the Zhao family, but he can't wander with you, and he needs the royal family himself to **, so it is proper!" Thinking of this, he immediately agreed to leave his son in Tianyi Palace, and the Empress Dowager herself**.

When he was young, Renzong ordered someone to check the genealogy, and according to the generation, he personally named Zhao Weiming's son 'Zhao Chengzong'. After calculating that he had been in the palace for most of the day, Zhao Weiming immediately said goodbye to the Empress Dowager and Renzong, and after telling his son a few words, he hurriedly left the palace. After coming to the Sifang Inn, when he saw Li Hongsleeve, who was only Zhao Weiming coming back alone, asked where his son was, Zhao Weiming told Li Hongsleeve how his son did not know how to know the etiquette, how he was left in the palace by the Empress Dowager**, and was named Zhao Chengzong by Renzong. After listening, seeing that Zhao Weiming was reluctant, Li Hongsleeve comforted her husband, "My son has reached the age when he should read and learn etiquette, and there are many great Confucians in the palace;

At noon, as soon as Zhao Weiming, who had been strolling around with Li Hongsleeve all morning, returned to the Sifang Inn, he faintly felt that something seemed wrong. I remember that when the two of them went out, the door was obviously closed, but at this time, the door was wide open. When I walked into the room, I saw a person sitting on my back in the room. When he heard them enter, the man turned and stood up, and said, 'You are back,' and his voice was gentle and loving. Zhao Weiming saw that it was a middle-aged beauty with a smile on her face. But after thinking about it carefully, I hadn't seen or known this person, so I couldn't help but be stunned for a while. But when Li Hongsleeve saw this person, he was extremely affectionate, and hurriedly stepped forward to support the shoulders of the middle-aged beauty, and put his face on her body, "Grandma, why are you here?"

When he was young, Zhao Weiming, who was relieved, thought that although the beautiful woman in front of him was a ghostly ghost in the past, she was also Li Hongsleeve's own grandmother and his own grandmother. Hurriedly straightened his clothes, stepped forward and bowed, 'Grandmother is above, grandson-in-law has given you a courtesy!' Seeing this, Zhao Jingniang hurriedly helped Zhao Weiming up, and looked at Li Hongsleeve with a puzzled expression. 'Grandma, we have married in the church on Xiaguang Island, and now he is the husband of his grandson!' Li Hongsleeve introduced. Hearing this, Zhao Jingniang's expression became strange after a burst of poignant laughter. He muttered in his mouth, "I really didn't expect it bad!Brother Zhao, the marriage between our two families is really destined, I just hope that this kid won't be as affectionate as his grandfather!" Although Zhao Weiming didn't understand these brainless words, he still immediately asked the shopkeeper to bring the tea, and personally served it to Zhao Jingniang. When she was young, after Zhao Jingniang's expression eased slightly, the two immediately asked her about the purpose of her visit.

But as soon as Zhao Jingniang spoke, the two of them were taken aback. She said, 'I'm back in the rivers and lakes this time, just to stop a big conspiracy of Li Tianxing!'' What conspiracy?' the two asked in unison. "Do you still remember my ten-year appointment with Jianzun at the foot of Zhanlu Mountain?" Zhao Jingniang replied. Both of them were present at the time, and after nodding their heads, Zhao Weiming asked, "I know, but I don't know what it has to do with the conspiracy of Li Tianxing?" Zhao Jingniang glanced at Zhao Weiming, and said slowly, "Just this year ago, when the strange poison on my body was about to attack again, just when I wanted to go to the Wanxian Gang General Altar to find Li Tianxing for an antidote, I heard a shocking news on the rivers and lakes, saying that the 'Netherworld Ghost' and Sword Venerable Ye Xiao will fight to the death in the Xinghua Camp in the eastern suburbs of the capital in order to fulfill the ten-year covenant!" How did you know about your appointment with Ye Xiao, Li Tianxing?' Zhao Weiming asked. Zhao Jingniang glanced at the two of them meaningfully and said, "I personally reported this matter to Li Tianxing back then, but he only said at the time, 'It's just a joke, don't take it seriously'' Li Tianxing said it well!' Zhao Weiming responded. "It's strange here" Zhao Jingniang was a little excited, "He was indifferent to this matter back then, but now he has spread the covenant of our martial arts competition, and set up a heavy color and invited all sects and factions to participate in the competition, isn't it extremely strange?!" 'I'm afraid that Li Tianxing's plan will be frustrated, not only will Ye Xiao not participate, but the martial arts factions may not come. Zhao Weiming couldn't help but say.
