Peach Blossom Island

  • Ke Zhen'e (traditional Chinese: 柯鎮惡; simplified Chinese: 柯镇恶; Mandarin Pinyin: Kē Zhèn'è; Jyutping: O1 Zan3-ngok3) is the sole survivor of the "Seven Freaks of Jiangnan" from the first novel. He lives with the Guos and is regarded as an elder in the family. Despite holding a grudge against Yang Guo's father for the deaths of his fellows, he treats the boy like the rest of the Guo children. Years later, he relates the story of Yang Kang to Yang Guo at the Temple of the Iron Spear. He admires Yang Guo for his chivalry, and is also grateful to Yang for saving his life from Sha Tongtian and company. He forgives Yang Guo's father and promises to help Yang reconstruct his father's tomb.
  • Shagu (Chinese: 傻姑; Mandarin Pinyin: Shǎgū; Jyutping: So4-gu1; literally "foolish girl") is the orphaned daughter of Qu Lingfeng. She was taken into Huang Yaoshi's care and became his student. Upon learning that she was present at the scene of his father's death, Yang Guo attempts to force her to tell him the details about the incident. However, her ambiguous and unclear answers cause Yang to mistakenly believe that Guo Jing and Huang Rong murdered his father.
  • Feng Mofeng (traditional Chinese: 馮默風; simplified Chinese: 冯默风; Mandarin Pinyin: Féng Mòfēng; Jyutping: Fung4 Mak6-fung1) is a former student of Huang Yaoshi, and the sole surviving one of Huang's original six disciples (the others were either killed or died of natural causes). He was maimed and banished from Peach Blossom Island by his teacher in anger when his seniors Chen Xuanfeng and Mei Chaofeng betrayed their teacher. He becomes a blacksmith after leaving the island and he still respects Huang Yaoshi. He sacrifices himself to buy time for Guo Jing and Yang Guo to escape from the Mongol camp.

Famous quotes containing the words peach, blossom and/or island:

    I askèd a thief to steal me a peach
    He turned up his eyes
    I ask’d a lithe lady to lie her down
    Holy & meek she cries—

    As soon as I went
    An angel came.
    He wink’d at the thief
    And smild at the dame—

    And without one word said
    Had a peach from the tree
    And still as a maid
    Enjoy’d the lady.
    William Blake (1757–1827)

    Letting a hundred flowers blossom and a hundred schools of thought contend is the policy for promoting the progress of the arts and the sciences and a flourishing culture in our land.
    Mao Zedong (1893–1976)

    I should like to have seen a gallery of coronation beauties, at Westminster Abbey, confronted for a moment by this band of Island girls; their stiffness, formality, and affectation contrasted with the artless vivacity and unconcealed natural graces of these savage maidens. It would be the Venus de’ Medici placed beside a milliner’s doll.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)
