You Say This Antique Is Fake? I Made It Myself a Thousand Years Ago!

Li Changkong is immortal, but falls asleep for a hundred years at a time.

He once witnessed Ying Zheng perform the Fengshan ceremony on Mount Tai.

He once urged Han Xin to declare himself king.

He once saw Zhuge Liang cry out in sorrow: "O vast heavens, why have you treated me so cruelly!"

He once taught a boy how to use a spear. That boy later became famous throughout the land. His name was Yue Fei!

He once saw Chongzhen cry out in anguish: "Let the rebels tear the country apart, but don't harm a single commoner!"

But after living for far, far too long, he can no longer remember clearly who he is or what his identity was. He has lost his memory!

One day, an antiques appraisal show visits a village to find treasures and arrives at Li Changkong's home, where they uncover a bowl.

Expert: "It's fake."

Li Changkong: "What the hell are you talking about? I made that myself a thousand years ago!"

The whole internet is stunned: An immortal? Someone who lives forever?

The show asks him about it, but Li Changkong looks bewildered. "I've forgotten. I can't remember either."

The whole internet erupts: So it was fake after all.

But as the production crew investigates further, one national treasure after another comes to light, along with long-buried stories from the past.

And through it all, Li Changkong gradually recovers his memories.

So I'm immortal?
