Chapter 10 Zuo Ci plays Cao Cao
The current Zuo Ci is more than twice as powerful as the Zuo Ci in history. Even if Gongsun Kang doesn't tell him, he will know Cao Cao, which is such a bad taste.
Zuo Ci returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion and used illusion to create a scene where Ying'er and Cao Jie were still there, which lasted for a long time, and did not withdraw until everyone fell asleep at night.
The next day, the people in Cao's mansion finally found that Ying'er and Cao Jie were missing, and there was a panic in the mansion. Cao Cao was furious and ordered a search of the entire city.
By this time, they were already on the Yellow River. So after tossing for a few days, there was no result. And Zuo Ci hid in Cao Cao's mansion, drinking fine wine every day, and watching them look for it with a smile.
Cao Cao has many children, but there is only one Ying'er, so he is very sad. There is no trace of strangers coming in and out, and it is very likely that Ying'er abducted Cao Jie.
Cao Cao was silently drinking in the lobby, and suddenly saw a Taoist priest walk in.
The Taoist priest has silver hair and silver beard, a ruddy face, bright eyes, and a very energetic appearance.
Cao Cao asked, "Who are you?" Why did you enter the Prime Minister's House? ”
"I'm Zuo Ci, and I'm here to be the prime minister." Zuo Ci began to fool Cao Cao.
"It's Yuan Fang" Cao Cao's intelligence system is very developed, and he actually knows him: "Didn't you follow Gongsun Kang to Wadao?" Why are you coming to me again? ”
"I've made great achievements in cultivating on Wajima. Specially came to find the prime minister. Zuo Ci moved out of the set of snorts he had told Gongsun Kang:
"Poor road in Xichuan Jialing Emei Mountain, learning the Tao for 30 years, suddenly heard the stone wall in the voice of my name; and to see, not to see. And so for a few days. Suddenly, there is a thunderstorm that shatters the stone wall, and there are three volumes of the Book of Heaven, which is called "Dunjia Book of Heaven". The name of the upper volume is 'Tian Dun', the middle volume is called 'Earth Escape', and the lower volume is called 'Human Escape'. The sky can soar clouds and cross the wind, and the ascension is too empty; The earth can pass through the mountains and stones; People can travel all over the world, hide their shapes, throw swords and knives, and take people's heads. The great throne is extremely human, why not retreat and follow the poor road to practice in Emei Mountain? It should be taught in three heavenly books. ”
Cao Cao said: "I have also thought about the rapid stream for a long time and retreated, but the Nai court has not won its ears."
Zuo Ci smiled and said: "Liaodong Gongsun Kang is also talented, why don't you let this position with you?" Otherwise, the poor road should be a flying sword to take your head. ”
Cao Cao was furious and said: "This is Gongsun Kang's fine work!" Drink left and right to take it down.
Tzu laughed and laughed. Ordered more than a dozen jailers to arrest and torture him. The jailer beat hard, but when he saw Zuo Ci, he was asleep and painless. He was angry, and ordered to take the shackles, and the iron nails were nailed, and the iron locks were locked, and he was sent to prison for guarding. I saw that the shackles were all gone, and Zuo Ci was lying on the ground without damage. and imprisonment for seven days, without food or drink.
When he looked at it, Ci sat on the ground, his face turning red. The jailer reported to Cao Cao and took it out and asked him. Ci said: "I haven't eaten for decades, so I might as well do it; A thousand sheep can be eaten in the sun. "it.
Cao Cao thinks that there is no reason for people in the world not to eat, and Zuo Ci can go without eating for seven days, it must be the side of the evil and evil who wants to kill him.
Cao Cao knew the idea of killing Zuo Ci together, so he asked Cao Cao to let him go home and spare him.
Cao Cao said, "Why are you in such a hurry to go? ”
Zuo Ci said, "You want to kill me, so I beg you to let me go." ”
Cao Cao said, "Where, where, how could I kill you." Since you have noble aspirations, I will not force you to keep you. ”
Cao Cao set up a banquet for Zuo Ci, and Zuo Ci said: "I am going to travel far away, and I ask to share a drink with you." Cao Cao agreed. At that time, the weather was very cold, and the wine was soaking in the fire, Zuo Ci pulled out the hairpin on his head and stirred the wine, and in a moment the hairpin was dissolved in the wine, just like the ink dissolved into water when grinding ink.
At the beginning, Cao Cao saw Zuo Ci asking for a "glass of wine", thinking that he would drink half a cup first and then give Zuo Ci the remaining half of his cup, but he didn't expect Zuo Ci to use the hairpin to cut his wine glass first, and the wine glass was divided into two halves, and there was wine in both halves, several inches apart.
Zuo Ci drank half of it first, and gave the other half of the cup to Cao Cao. Cao Cao was not very happy, and he didn't drink it right away, so Zuo Ci asked Cao Cao to come over and drink it himself.
After drinking, the cup was thrown on the beam, and the cup was suspended and shook on the beam, like a bird about to swoop to the ground.
When he inquired, he said that Zuo Ci had returned to his own residence,
This time, Cao Cao wanted to kill Zuo Ci even more, and wanted to see if Zuo Ci could escape death.
Cao Cao ordered the arrest of Zuo Ci, Zuo Ci got into the flock, and the people who pursued him couldn't tell the difference, so they checked the original number of sheep, and sure enough, there was one more, knowing that Zuo Ci had become a sheep.
The pursuer conveyed Cao Cao's meaning, saying that Cao Cao just wanted to see Zuo Ci, and asked Zuo Ci not to be afraid.
Then a great sheep came up and knelt down and said, "Look at me, am you?" ”
The pursuers said to each other: "This kneeling sheep must be Zuo Ci!" "I want to take the sheep away.
But then all the sheep knelt down and said, "Look at me, am you?" ”
In this way, the pursuers really couldn't figure out which sheep was Zuo Ci, so they had to pull it down.
Later, someone who knew Zuo Ci's whereabouts told Cao Cao secretly, and Cao Cao sent someone to arrest him, and he caught it as soon as he caught it.
In fact, it was not that Zuo Ci couldn't escape, but that he deliberately wanted to show Cao Cao his change technique.
So Zuo Ci asked his captors to tie him up and throw him into prison. The warden planned to torture Zuo Ci, but found that there was a Zuo Ci in the house and a Zuo Ci outside the house, and I don't know which one was the real Zuo Ci.
When Cao Cao found out, he held even more resentment, so he ordered Zuo Ci to be tied up and killed. Zuo Ci suddenly disappeared from the execution ground.
So he ordered the city gates to be closed and a large number of arrests were made. Some of the arresters said they didn't know Zuo Ci, and the officials told him that Zuo Ci was blind in one eye, wearing a blue Gebu shirt and a Gebu turban, and that he would arrest such a person when he saw him.
After a while, the people of the whole city became blind and wore green kudzu cloth and tied a scarf, and no one could tell which one was Zuo Ci.
Manipulate the shadow graphics and arrest Zuo Ci everywhere. Within three days, inside and outside the city, there were three or four hundred people who were caught with a squint, a limp, a white vine crown, a green lazy robe, and a gentleman in wooden shoes. Stir up the market.
Ordered the generals to splash the blood of pigs and sheep and escort them to the Chengnan Church. Cao Cao personally led 500 armored soldiers to surround them, and they were all beheaded.
Everyone has a green qi in their necks, and when they gather in the sky, they turn into a Zuo Ci, and they beckoned a white crane to sit on the air, clapping their hands and laughing: "The earth rat follows the golden tiger, and the traitor once the male rests!"
Command the people to shoot them with bows and arrows. Suddenly, the wind blew fiercely, and the stones and sand were lifted; The beheaded corpses all jumped up, held their heads, and ran to the martial arts hall to fight Cao Cao. The civil and military generals hid their faces and were shocked, and they didn't care about each other.
Cao Cao ordered the scope of the search to be expanded, and killed as long as it was caught. Later, someone saw Zuo Ci, so he killed and dedicated it to Cao Cao, Cao Cao was overjoyed, and the corpse was transported to see that it was a bundle of thatch, and then went to the place where Zuo Ci was killed to find the body, which was gone.
Later, someone said that he saw Zuo Ci in Jingzhou, and Liu Biao, who was the assassin of Jingzhou at that time, also thought that Zuo Ci was a demon who confused people's hearts, and planned to catch and kill him.
Liu Biao came out with soldiers and horses to show off, Zuo Ci knew that Liu Biao wanted to see what Taoist skills he had, so he slowly walked up to Liu Biao and said, "I have some meager gifts to reward your army."
Liu Biao said: "You are a Taoist priest alone, I have so many people, can you be rewarded?"
Zuo Ci said it again, and Liu Biao sent someone to see what the gift was, and saw that there was only a bucket of wine and a small bundle of dried meat, but ten people didn't lift it.
Zuo Ci brought the dried meat himself, cut the meat piece by piece to the ground, and asked a hundred people to bring wine and dried meat and distribute them to the soldiers. Three glasses of wine and one piece of jerky for each soldier.
The jerky tasted the same as usual, and more than 10,000 soldiers were full of food and drink, but there was no shortage of wine in the wine vessel, and the jerky was not eaten up, and Liu Biao's more than 1,000 guests were also drunk.
Liu Biao was taken aback and dispelled the intention of killing Zuo Ci. A few days later, Zuo Ci left Liu Biao and left.
When he arrived in Dantu County in Eastern Wu, he heard that there was a Taoist man named Xu Fall in Dantu, so he went to visit him.
There were six or seven guests in front of Xu Fall's door, and there were six or seven ox carts parked. The guest lied to Zuo Ci that Xu Cheng was not at home. Zuo Ci knew that the guest had lied to him, so he took his leave and left.
After Zuo Ci left, the guests saw the ox cart walking on the poplar treetops, and climbed to the tree to look again, but the ox cart was gone. When he got down from the tree, he saw the ox cart walking on the tree again. In some cases, a foot-long thorn grew out of the round hole in the center of the wheel of the ox cart, and the cart could not be pushed.
The guests were shocked, and hurriedly ran to report that there was an old man who was blind in one eye, and that we saw that he was a layman, so we lied to him that the master was not there, and after the old man left, this strange thing happened to the ox and the cart, and I don't know what happened.
When Xu Yuan heard it, "Ah, this is Zuo Cigong coming to visit me, how can you lie to him!" Hurry up and chase it and maybe you can catch it back. ”
So the guests scattered to chase after him, and after catching up with Zuo Ci, they all kowtowed to him to apologize. Zuo Ci was relieved and let the guests go back, and when they went back, they saw that the oxen and cart were back to their original state.
Zuo Ci met with Sun Ce, and Sun Ce also wanted to kill Zuo Ci.
Sun Ce once wanted to stab him from behind.
Zuo Ci walked slowly in wooden shoes and holding a bamboo cane, and Sun Ce chased after him with a weapon but couldn't catch up, so he knew that Zuo Ci had Taoist skills and didn't dare to kill him again.
In this way, Zuo Ci wandered outside, playing Cao Cao, Liu Biao, and Sun Ce, and never returned to Liaodong. His purpose was still to find more Daoist friends and bring his Dao skills one step closer. But in this era, the only ones who are as famous as him are: "Three Immortals of Land" Nanhua Lao Xian, Zuo Ci and Yu Ji.
