Zhang Qiling is the last patriarch of the mysterious family in Northeast China, the spiritual leader of the Iron Triangle, and the brother of the inverted bucket circle. In fact, it is not a name, but a specific code name, which is called by the successive heads of the Zhang family.
It is said in The Sand Sea that when Zhou Muwang entered the jade figurines more than 3,000 years ago, he made a box with the jade figurines and put a baby in it in order to let future generations know the exact date of his rebirth. Later, the Zhang family opened the box. The baby in it is Xiao Ge, so it is speculated that Xiao Ge lived for more than 3000 years. But in fact, when the box was opened, the Zhang family got a dead baby, but in order to create a belief of immortality, they found a baby from home to replace the dead baby. This baby is Zhang Qiling.
In the book, Zhang Qiling didn't specify his birth time. Therefore, his age problem has always been that there are sinkholes in the notes of grave robbery. But we can still roughly calculate the real age through clues. In Hidden Flowers, Zhang Haike said that he and Zhang Qiling grew up in the Republic of China, so it can be inferred that Zhang Qiling was probably born in the early years of the Republic of China. So the younger brother may be eighty or ninety years old, but the Zhang family generally live a long life, so it is not surprising that they are young.
At this age, ordinary people have basically lost their teeth and can't walk. However, because of the blood of Kirin in the body, Zhang Qiling still keeps his face intact and has a strong vitality. Still have to realize that the Zhang family can only live a long life, not really live a long life. Nanpai Sanshu said in an interview that Zhang Qiling's age is no more than 100. Zhang Qiling has always appeared as a "young man", and his appearance has hardly changed for decades.
