Hearing this woman's voice, Huang Xiaolong already knew her intention, and he communicated with his mind, "Do you want me to avenge you?"
The woman, unable to hold back her tears, said, "It's all my fault... all my fault... I doomed my own kind... At that time, Mr. Zheng, no, Zheng He, that demon, he saved us... He taught us to write in the human language, brought us glowing jewels, porcelain, silk... I... I didn't listen to the elders, I fell in love with him... wuuu~~~"
The woman's voice, which was none other than the beautiful mermaid with exotic charm that Huang Xiaolong had seen in the scroll, began to recount her story with a sobbing voice.
Her encounter with Zheng He, their love, and eventually their marriage, coincided strangely with Huang Xiaolong's deductions.
In that era, pirates were rampant, and one pirate named Chen Zuyi played an extremely important role in this tragic story.
