I will practice more in the heavens

Chapter 88 Zuo Ci plays Cao Cao

"What the hell?" Li Xing was puzzled.

Didn't I say that all demons and ghosts are superstitions, and the so-called "ghosts" are just the "meaning" of generals and charlatans, and they belong to one of the "four poles", so there is no need to panic?
You, Xu Chu, the majestic Lord Wu of the Yanhuang Kingdom, how can you be so flustered?
"What's going on?" Zhang Lu, who was reporting to work, also showed a puzzled expression.

He is the third-generation celestial master of Taoism. He is "the person who understands ghosts and gods best" in this world, but even so, he has never seen a real "ghost", let alone a monster. He has seen the cowardly cat. The most monster-like animal.

"Well, this matter actually has something to do with the marshal." Xu Chu said.

"Is it related to me?" Li Xing was even more confused.

"Aren't you a good friend of Sun Ce, the prefect of Changsha? Jiangdong is rich in mandarin oranges, so Prime Minister Cao sent envoys to ask for twenty shi in your name. He wants all the officials to try it." Xu Chu said.

Hearing this, Li Xing nodded: "There is such a thing."

Today's land of Shenzhou is divided into three parts of the world, and the Yanhuang Kingdom has already occupied the second part, which is in an absolute advantage.

Although Sun Ce had captured most of Jingzhou and trained the navy, Cao Cao didn't take it seriously, so if he needed any fruit, he asked him directly, and he didn't dare not give it.

Of course, Cao Cao is also a wonderful person. In order to save some face for Sun Ce and deter Liu Bei who is tossing in Shuchuan, he asked for the oranges in the name of Li Xing and as a friend.

And Sun Ce, in name, also gave it to his friend Li Shanshui, not as a tribute.

It was nothing, just a small thing.

But the problem was that something happened to the envoy during the delivery: an old Taoist priest got into the convoy transporting oranges, and he didn't see him do anything. He just helped pick a section of the way, and the oranges became lighter.

After being transported to Xuchang City, when they were peeled open, they were all empty.

Cao Cao was furious and wanted to punish the envoy.

At this time, the old Taoist appeared again: he claimed to be a fellow of Cao Cao, his surname was Zuo, his name was Ci, and his Taoist name was "Wujiao".

"Isn't this good?" Li Xing said.

Hearing this, he already understood that it was "Zuo Ci", one of the three immortals at the end of Han Dynasty, who had appeared.

In the original book, "Zuo Ci plays Cao Cao" is a very classic plot, that is, his miraculous "magic", which established the title of "Three Immortals of the Late Han Dynasty".

In addition, it is said that Nanhua is "the head of the three immortals in the late Han Dynasty", but it is not.

Zuo Ci is the one.

As for the more mysterious Nanhua old fairy, it was Zhang Lu who pretended to be a young man. Just for fun, he stole a copy of the "Tao Jing" from his home and passed it to Zhang Jiao, a fellow clan of the side branch.

Unexpectedly, it ended the 400-year Han Dynasty and led to decades of war between the Three Kingdoms.

Li Xing only found out about this matter after he subdued Zhang Lu.

But Zuo Ci is a very mysterious existence. Even Zhang Lu is not very clear about his heels. He only knows that he is a casual cultivator who has practiced well and has the "intention" of Dzogchen. I don't know good and evil.

In the original book, he teased Cao Cao. Although he teased Cao Cao three times, he didn't do anything to Cao Cao.

Li Xing felt that he was not an enemy, so he didn't care too much.

"However, it's all for him to give oranges, but he shows off in the prime minister's mansion, picking dragon livers for a while, and Songjiang perch thousands of miles away for a while, and toasting the prime minister." Xu Chu said: "The prime minister suspects that he is uneasy and has good intentions and wants to assassinate him." , cut off his head!"

Li Xing said: "???"

This seems to be different from "Zuo Ci Playing Cao Cao" in the original book.

"Why did Meng De kill someone suddenly?" Zhang Lu asked.

Even if you suspect assassination, you have to arrest him first, and then kill him after interrogation, right?
Yanhuang Kingdom is not the big man it was back then, and will not disregard human life.

"It was Dian Wei. He found that Zuo Ci used 'yi', as if to confuse the prime minister, so he warned the prime minister. After arousing the prime minister's alertness, under his order, I cut Zuo Ci with a knife." Xu Chu said .

Li Xing: "..."

Could it be that Zuo Ci failed to play Cao Cao and became "Yi" after death?

Xu Chu, who was already close to "peerless", has officially stepped into the practice of "Five Animals" these days. Apart from Zhuge Liang, who is somewhat "super-class", even Zhang Lu, he can slash him with a knife.

But the problem is, Xu Chuming knew the existence of "yi", how could he be so frightened?

"What about after it's cut?"

"After the body was separated, 'Zuo Ci' turned into a sheep directly, and then there was another Zuo Ci on the same place. If I cut it up again, it would still be a sheep...Now the prime minister's mansion is full of blood, and there are sheep everywhere!" Xu Chu said somewhat He said in a panic: "Marshal, didn't you tell us about the 'All Races of the Heavens'? Could it be that a monster from the 'Sheep Clan' came in?"

It made Li Xing even more speechless.

Come on, the problem still lies with me: I call myself a "god general" and build a country based on this, how can I convince others that there are no ghosts and gods?
But the sheep family... why didn't you say that Xi Yangyang came in?

It’s just that!

"It's okay, then Zuo Ci should not be dead, I'll go and have a look!" Li Xing said, and went to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

In fact, he was also quite curious: whether it was "meaning" or some thaumaturgy, it was able to fool the peerless generals, so frightened that Xu Chu even shouted "monster", the power is definitely not low.

It is very valuable to learn.

After arriving at the place, the first thing that catches your eyes is an old Taoist priest with kind eyebrows and kind eyes: with a fairy demeanor and a smile on his face, he takes Dianwei around in circles with a whisk.

And Cao Cao, standing by the side, kept yelling: "There, there is a sheep over there, cut him off quickly!"

Li Xing couldn't bear to look directly at him.

However, it is confirmed that this is not a spell, but a simple "illusion", cast through "will".

Originally, it was impossible to have an effect on super generals above first class, but for some reason, Zuo Ci's illusion was effective, and Xu Chu who came after him even stood in front of Cao Cao, shouting: "Don't blame the prime minister, I will defend this sheep! "

Seeing that Li Xing was speechless.

However, after seeing Li Xing, Zuo Ci didn't do it again, but bowed and saluted, and said: "Zuo Ci, a loose man in the mountains, has met God General Li."

This is not the first time he has seen Li Xing, since the decisive battle at Hulao Pass, he has been watching from near or far.

But so far, I still haven't figured it out.

Li Xing's fate was incompatible with this world. Although he didn't believe in the saying of "the heavens and all races", he still doubted that Li Xing might really come from "outside the sky".

It is very likely that it is really "gods coming down to earth".

"There's no need to be too polite." Li Xing asked directly, "How did you do this?"

Today, he no longer needs to make detours with anyone.

"The god general wants to know?" Zuo Ci smiled, very polite, but said neither humble nor overbearing: "The poor man can solve the doubts of the god general, but the god general must first tell the poor man, where are you from?"
