After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the night of Weinan was cold and the wind was slow.

In the night sky, the moon has not risen, the stars are shining, and the Big Dipper is especially bright. Next to the Big Dipper, a secondary star that was gradually dimming and inaudible has also brightened again under the nourishment of the Big Dipper in the past few nights.

It's a pity that there are few people looking up at astronomy nowadays.

At that time, Cao Wei Qinglong was in the second year, Shu Han was in the twelfth year of Jianxing, and Sun Wu Jiahe was in the third year. Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of Shu Han, made the sixth northern expedition to the Central Plains, and Sima Yi, the general of Cao Wei and the governor of the capital, fought in Weinan.

Zhuge Liang was stationed in Wuzhangyuan, and Sima Yi was stationed on the south bank of Weishui, and the two sides were nearly 100 miles apart.

It was night, Sima Yi had nothing to do, and on a whim, he suddenly went out of the tent to look up at astronomy.

Sima Yi is not a cultivator, but he has some understanding of monasticism and is proficient in astronomy and geography. At this time, I saw the Big Dipper shining brightly, and its brilliance shone on the auxiliary stars; No matter how he didn't practice the Tao and cultivating qi, Sima Yi also knew that someone must be doing it.

"It's not good, this is someone praying for their lives in the stars!"

Although Sima Yi didn't know anything about the spells of the Sea of Stars, he had also heard of it.

"Those who can pray for the stars must be those who have achieved a small degree in cultivation, but they are also people with short lives, and they must also be proficient in the spells of the Sea of Stars."

"With so many conditions combined, in this desolate land, the person who can use this method must be Zhuge Kongming!"

Thinking of this, Sima Yi looked around and saw Xiahou Ba, the captain on duty at the gate of the camp, and said: "Xiahou Ba, I order you to lead a thousand elite soldiers and go to Wuzhangyuan to explore the camp!" ”

"If the Shu army is in chaos, this must be Zhuge Kongming's carelessness; You can take the opportunity to rush and kill and disrupt the Shu army camp; General Ben personally led the army behind, and the camera fought a decisive battle. ”

Xiahou Ba is the captain on duty tonight, but he didn't expect that just by leading the team to patrol the night, he actually got a chance to lead the troops into battle.

I don't know if this is an envoy to death, or an opportunity to make meritorious contributions.

But since the general Sima Yi gave the order, he Xiahou Ba could only take the order.

"Whoa!"

After answering the promise, Xiahou Ba ordered a thousand cavalry from the camp and rushed to Wuzhangyuan.

……

On the Wuzhang Plain, the big tent of the Shu army.

Jiang Wei pressed his sword and looked around, guarding the door of the big tent.

In the tent, according to the direction of the Big Dipper, there are seven groups of star lanterns. In the middle of the seven groups of star lanterns, there is a small altar, and an oil lamp stands in front of the altar; The old man with hair on the altar is Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of the Shu Han Dynasty who is more than fifty years old.

I saw that Zhuge Liang was holding a seven-star sword in his hand, wearing a seven-star robe, and there were words in his mouth.

If there is a Qi practitioner who understands the spell of the Star Sea, he will definitely recognize that this is the method of the Seven Stars to continue his life!

As Zhuge Liang practiced for a while, the originally dim oil lamp in front of him became brighter and brighter. This is the effect of the starlights around the tent, and more often than not, the spell is about to be completed.

After the practice came to an end for the time being, Zhuge Liang took a sip of vegetarian tea to relieve his fatigue, but he was both happy and regretful in his heart.

Happily, Yu Xing's life is about to be completed, and he Zhuge Liang will be able to increase his life by twelve years. In this way, the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains, and even the great cause of Zhongxing Han, may not be unexpected.

It's a pity that this time, the seven-star life continuation method was still arranged in too haste.

If there is a warrior from the Big Dipper to set up the formation, when the star continues his life, he Zhuge Liang will be able to increase his longevity. At that time, there will be another sixty years to prepare, supplemented by his Zhuge Liang's wisdom and close demons, and the Han Empire will be prosperous!

"However, for now, let's increase our life expectancy by 12 years!"

Zhuge Liang sighed and thought.

At this moment, there was a sudden chaos outside the tent, and Jiang Wei's scolding sounded: "Stop!" ”

Then, Wei Yan's voice sounded: "There is a major military situation to inform the prime minister, Jiang Wei, Hugh has to stop it!" ”

Saying that, Wei Yan broke through directly, and Jiang Wei was knocked to a stumbling block.

Although Jiang Wei is both civil and military, in terms of force, he can't stop the brave Wei Yan.

The tent door was lifted, Wei Yan strode into the tent, and a strong wind followed.

Dozens of special candle-made star lamps are unharmed, just the candlelight flickering; But the main lamp in front of the altar was instantly extinguished under this wind of entry.

Wei Yan didn't understand the way of spells, so he just froze for a moment, and then hurriedly reported: "Prime Minister, there are Wei soldiers who have come to steal the camp!" ”

However, at this time, Zhuge Liang was like the main lamp that went out, and all his ambitions were extinguished.

When a person dies, the lights go out, and when the lights go out, people die.

The spell of the Seven Stars to continue life, if it succeeds, it will die immediately!

Originally, the continuation of his life was in sight, but who would have expected that just a gust of wind entering the door would make him Zhuge Liang's success in continuing his life?

A mouthful of old blood spurted out, and Zhuge Liang was on the altar.

At the door of the tent, Jiang Wei, who followed into the tent, opened his eyes angrily, drew his sword and prepared to kill Wei Yan. If it weren't for Wei Yan having to break into the prime minister's tent, this seven-star life-sustaining spell would have been successful!

Seeing the prime minister spitting blood, Wei Yan felt worried, as if he had inadvertently done something irreparable?

However, when Jiang Wei wanted to draw his sword, Wei Yan's right hand also subconsciously touched his waist.

If Jiang Wei dared to swing his sword at him, he Wei Yan might not be restrained!

Wheezing, Zhuge Liang waved his hand to stop it, and an imminent infighting fire stopped invisibly.

"I can't complain about this."

"Life and death are fate, this is the will of God, my fate should be extinguished, and you must not anger others!"

Zhuge Liang persuaded Jiang Weidao.

Then, turning to Wei Yan, Kong Ming said again: "Wei soldiers steal the camp at night, a certain is known." ”

"This is Sima Yi observing the sky at night, and found that a certain person was praying for his life in the star, so he sent a small group of elite soldiers to attack and disturb him, so there is no need to worry."

"General Wen Chang will attack head-on at this time, and there will be a gain."

Seeing that Prime Minister Zhuge Liang was not to blame, Wei Yan felt a little relieved, and arched his hand: "The last general will attack!" ”

With that, Wei Yan walked out of the tent quickly, fleeing away from this place.

As for what was in his mind, no one knew at this time.

Jiang Weihu looked at Wei Yan's distant back, and retracted his gaze for a long time; turned to the altar, supported Zhuge Liang, who was delighted, and asked bitterly: "Dare to ask the prime minister, but there is still room for redemption?" ”

Zhuge Liang smiled bitterly: "Seven stars continue to live, and it has always been a matter of success or death, how can it be redeemed?" ”

"That's it, that's it, it's destiny like this, in vain!"

sighed, while there was still a mouthful of breath, Zhuge Liang began to explain the future to Jiang Wei and the generals in the camp.

After a while, after everything was explained, Jiang Wei and the generals in the camp began to act according to the plan, and the big tent was quiet for a while.

……

When a person is about to die, there will be a return to the light.

At this time, Zhuge Liang's thinking was particularly agile, and he remembered all kinds of past. Many omissions in the past, and even some incomprehensions, suddenly became clear at this moment.

After a long time, Zhuge Liang suddenly laughed out loud, laughing until tears came out: "Hahaha, I see! ”

"In vain, my Zhuge Liang is conceited and intellectual, so what I have done in the past 30 years is still to make wedding clothes for others?"

"Even so, even if my soul is scattered, I am bound to disturb this heavenly opportunity!"

After that, he looked at the seven sets of star lamps in the tent, and their light was scattered and bright; Zhuge Liang struggled to get up, clenched the seven-star sword in his hand, stepped on Xinggang, and once again forced himself to do the law.

In a moment, the light in the big tent suddenly brightened, turning into a pillar of light, heading straight for the Big Dipper.

In an instant, the stars in the sky dimmed, but the Big Dipper suddenly brightened, and then instantly dimmed.

At the same time, a meteor that should not have appeared suddenly disappeared when it crossed the sky and passed through the faint Big Dipper.

"Not good!"

"The heavens are actually disordered!"

"This Zhuge Kongming, even if he dies, he will disturb the heavens?!"

On the land of the Central Plains, among the many mountains, rivers and rivers, there were people who watched the sky at night, and they were all shocked at this time.

The heavens were suddenly disordered, and the general trend of the world, which was originally clear, became confusing again.

……

The third year of the Han Jian'an, late autumn.

Yanzhou assassin Cao Mengde once again raised troops to attack Xuzhou. Xuzhou Assassin Shi Lu Bu was defeated for a while, and he has always been arrogant, so that he was betrayed by the generals under his command and died in Pi Baimen Tower.

After Lu Bu's death, it was night, the stars were faint, and the seven stars of the Big Dipper were shining.

Especially the greedy wolf star, which burst out with a scorching light.

At this moment, a meteor suddenly emerged from the direction of the Greedy Wolf Star, dragging a long light tail and flying in the direction of Jingxiang.

Among the mountains of Jingshan, on a certain peak, hidden on the top of the clouds, there is a person sitting cross-legged.

As the meteor cut through the night, the man frowned unnaturally.

"Huh?"

"The heavens seem to be disordered, and there doesn't seem to be any change?"

"Is it possible, what is going to happen?"

In a few moments, the stars were completely dimmed, dark clouds were coming, and thunderstorms were coming. However, the heavy rain had no effect on the man sitting cross-legged. When the rain dripped down three feet from this person, it was as if there was an invisible curtain blocking the raindrops.

……

PS: Many historical sources record that Lü Bu's death was in December of the third year of Jian'an (the 198th month of the lunar calendar), which is converted into February of 199 A.D. in the Gregorian calendar, which is the day when Xiapi City was broken and Lü Bu was captured.

However, whether it is February 199 A.D. or the wax moon of the third year of Jian'an, this contradicts a fact.

When Lü Bu defeated Baimenlou, it was Cao Cao who dug up the Surabaya River and flooded Xiapi City, which led to the destruction of the city.

Then the question arises.

According to the Chinese solar terms, it was the middle of winter, and the rivers seemed to be in the dry season, right?

Where did Cao Cao come from to flood the city of Picheng?

Could it be that everyone in Cao Junjun soaked in urine?

Therefore, either Cao Cao did not flood Pi, or the time of flooding Pi was wrong.

Because of the needs of the novel, in this book, the time of Lu Bu's defeat was advanced by a few months, after the Mid-Autumn Festival in August.

That is, the Mid-Autumn Festival in August of the third year of Jian'an of the Han Dynasty (198 AD).

After all, autumn also has a rainy season, and the river can also rise in water.
