Taoist Temple of Time and Space

Chapter 161. 160. Cao Cao Makes a Wish to the Lord

"Lead them to the Taoist temple at the foot of the mountain"

On the cloud bed, Chu Feng's figure blurred for a while.

"Yes"

Hu Erniang walked out very simply.

……

Under the floating fairy mountain, the Taoist temple covered by trees and branches is peaceful and serene.Suddenly, a strong cold wind from the mountain stream blew by, leaving fallen leaves all over the ground, adding a bit of bleakness to the quaint building.

With a creak, the heavy door was pushed open, and dust fell all over the floor.

Chu Feng, who was dressed in a thin Taoist robe, stepped over the threshold, walked forward at a leisurely pace, and unknowingly came to the towering old apricot tree.The old stone tables and benches are covered with dark dust, silently telling the past.

“Long time no return”

Chu Feng stroked the table lightly, and memories flashed in his eyes.

"Guanzhu, Guo Jia, Cao Cao, brought them"

Hu Erniang's cold voice sounded from behind.

Chu Feng didn't turn around, just stood there.

After a while, two very different footsteps approached, one was light, ordinary people didn't pay attention to it, and couldn't hear it at all, a bit like a woman; High-ranking superiors.

"Greetings to the Goddess, the Goddess will enjoy eternal blessings, and the longevity will be equal to the sky (Greetings to the Goddess, the Lords will enjoy the immortal blessings forever, and the longevity will be equal to the heavens)"

The two voices said in unison, as if they had discussed it.

Chu Feng turned around and looked at the two people kneeling, Guo Jia, with a relaxed smile on his face, dressed in a moon-white robe, with a simple wooden hairpin on his hair, he still had the chic appearance of pretending to be romantic.

Cao Cao, not amazing in appearance, average in stature, with a more serious expression, dressed in splendid and fine clothes, knelt there quietly, showing nothing, but he had his own appearance.

"stand up"

Chu Feng stretched out his hand to help, and an invisible force radiated out, making Cao Cao and Guo Jia stand up involuntarily.

"Monastery, during this period of time, I have built 140 Taoist temples and gathered 30 believers, as evidenced by documents."

As soon as he got up, Cao Cao took out a thick document solemnly.

After Chu Feng signaled Hu Erniang to take it, he walked a few steps and said, "It's been hard for you during this time, you can take this kind of thing for a while in the future, don't worry. By the way, if you have any wishes, you can talk to the poor." The Tao said that nothing is forbidden except eternal life."

Cao Cao was stunned when he heard it, and after a while, he came back to his senses and said seriously: "When Cao was young, he was rich and wealthy, and he had no worries about food and clothing, and he was better than most people. When you wake up, you will be in charge of life and death, and when you sleep, you will be beautiful and beautiful, enjoying what ordinary people can't enjoy, only one thing has not been fulfilled."

Hearing Cao Cao's ostentatious words, Chu Feng felt curious about what made Cao Cao unable to fulfill his wish.

"Fuck, always wanted to be a poet!"

Cao Cao said seriously.

As the most romantic hero of the Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty, Cao Cao is a complex combination of cruelty and romance. He is not only the butcher who slaughtered cities and murdered people, but also a man who wrote "the bones are exposed in the wild, and there is no chicken crowing for thousands of miles", which is compassionate and compassionate. poet.

"Poet, yes, Pindao will let you be a poet once."

Chu Feng released the ruby ​​scroll, swaying the brilliance, and the strange power radiated out.Creates a huge radiance that covers everything.

Cao Cao's consciousness sank, as if 1000 years had passed, Cao Cao raised his head and felt that his mind was groggy.

A ray of evening glow shone on his cheeks, Cao Cao was a little more conscious, and looked around, it was a strange room.

"Where is this place?"

Cao Cao asked the same question as Diao Chan.

Suddenly, a strong consciousness surged up, and Cao Cao covered his head and rolled over. Half an hour later, his body was still twitching non-stop. Gradually, his consciousness recovered a little, and Cao Cao's eyes widened.

It turned out that he went back to the time when he was the northern captain of Luoyang decades ago.

Looking at the bronze mirror in the corner, Cao Cao showed surprise at his young self.

"No, how could this happen!"

Cao Cao suddenly found that his memory of marching and fighting, and the allusions used to govern the country were blurred, and he couldn't think about it, and it gave him a terrible headache when he thought about it.

After a while, the memory of later generations also faded, replaced by a large number of poems.

"The grass grows on Lili Plain, withering every year. Wildfires can't be burnt out, but the spring breeze blows and regenerates."

"The young woman in the boudoir doesn't know how to worry. In the spring, she puts on her makeup and goes to the emerald building. Suddenly she sees the color of willows on the street, and regrets teaching her husband to seek a title."

"If life is only as first seen, what is the autumn wind and sad painting fan. It is easy to change but the heart of the old man, but the old man's heart is changeable."

……

With poems one by one, the young Cao Cao became famous early in the literary world. Although four-character poems are still popular in this era, and poetry does not occupy the mainstream in the literary world, Cao Cao still burst out thousands of poems with his fountain-like literary thoughts. His poems forcibly brought up the trend of poetry.

However, despite his great reputation in the literary world, Cao Cao's official career has repeatedly encountered twists and turns.

Later, he succeeded in buying an official, but when the Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out, he led troops to attack the Yellow Turbans. Being limited in his ability to lead troops, he suffered a big defeat without accident and was almost hacked to death by the Yellow Turbans!
Fleeing back to his hometown, within a few years, because of his status in the literary world, he was called up again as an official, but he did not expect to encounter Dong Zhuo's change.

At Situ Wangyun's family banquet, he was no longer the heroic man who raised his head and laughed and bluntly said to assassinate Dong Zhuo, but was like other mediocre people, scolding Dong Zhuo while drinking.

Soon, Dong Zhuo died under Wang Yun's beauty scheme and divorce. As Wang Yun's supporter, Cao Cao had a good time.

Later, the Xiliang army counterattacked, Cao Cao was displaced as a civil official and the emperor, and almost starved to death. It was not until Yuan Shao, who was in Jizhou, decided to enshrine the emperor to command the princes, that he got rid of his embarrassment and became a decent civil official.

Afterwards, he continued to rely on his literary talent and dawdled under Yuan Shao's hands.

Decades later, when he was getting old, he was floating on the vast Yangtze River in a small boat, thinking of the world that was still divided, and he chanted his last poem with tears in his eyes.

"The rolling Yangtze River flows eastward, and the waves wipe out the heroes. The success or failure of right and wrong is turned around. The green hills are still there, and the sunset is red for a few times..."

The hero in the poem is naturally not him, in this life, he is just a spectator!
A few days later, he died in a leaky thatched hut due to excessive drinking, and the well-meaning villagers buried him.

On his tombstone, wrote three words.

"anonymous"

In the Taoist temple, the light disappears.

Cao Cao, who has gone through a reincarnation, is already in tears.

"The rolling Yangtze River flows eastward, and the waves wash away the heroes. Right and wrong are turned away. The green hills are still there, and the sunset is red for a few times. The white-haired fishermen and woodcutters are on the river. , it’s all a joke.”
