Chapter Thirty-Eight: Breaking into Battle (I)
A quaint gate appeared in front of Cao Cao's eyes.
Facing this gate, Cao Cao felt an ancient aura full of vicissitudes of life rushing to his face. Behind this gate, what you have to face is not a hundred and eight wooden figures, but endless years.
"Uncle Cao, what's wrong with you? What are you standing here in a daze? Let's go inside! "Luban No. 7 doesn't have the feeling of Cao Cao, it is not a real person after all.
Pushing open the door, Luban No. 7 jumped to a place on the left where the bronze bell was placed.
It grinned at Cao Cao, and then slapped it directly on the bronze bell with its hand.
"When" a bell rings. The hall, which was originally pitch black, instantly brightened up after this bell.
A wall lamp lit automatically, and a statue of a venerable wood awoke from its slumber.
"Xiao Qi, why are you ringing the bell at night! Don't you know it's beauty sleep time? A beautiful wooden woman walked out stretching her waist.
"Hehe, Sister Qiao, Lord Mozi and other guests are here, he is coming to break into the wooden formation! You tell everyone to hurry up and prepare, don't let the visitors underestimate us one hundred and eight woods! ”
"Huh? Is this uncle going to break into battle? Why don't you come to a handsome guy! Ay! I'm not interested in uncle, otherwise, I can release the water!
Come, come, all of you! There's a guest coming! We must treat the uncle who came to the battle well! ”
Cao Cao swallowed a mouthful of saliva, he felt that the wooden beauty was cuter than Luban No. 7. Are these wooden people really wooden people? Why do you always feel like real people?
"Uncle Cao, why are you in a daze again! That's not good! Sister Qiao is beautiful, but she is not suitable for you! Let's get ready! A quarter of an hour later, the break began. I'm waiting for you at the last level! Don't hang up before you see me! ”
"Hey, hey, can you say something auspicious? What does it mean to hang up before I see you! You can rest assured, the lonely blessing is a big life, the king of Hades will not accept it, and the little ghost will not be left. ”
"Cut! You just blow it! You're not a good person anyway! Bragging is as simple as eating and drinking. After saying that, Lu Ban No. 7 jumped inside and ran inside, not giving Cao Cao a chance to lose his temper at all.
"Dang", the bell rang again. Then a whispering voice sounded, "The level begins!" ”
Cao Cao moved his body for a moment, he recalled that Lu Ban told him the rules of breaking through the level, and then, he said with a slight smile: "Why fight head-on with the interlocutor? Wouldn't it be okay to just run over there? ”
If you think of it, you will do it, and the Thunderbolt skill will be activated. Cao Cao turned into an afterimage and rushed straight towards the position of the wooden man guarding the first gate.
The first wooden figure was a wooden ape, and its eyes widened as it looked at Cao Cao as he ran towards him.
Then, there was no then. When it was about to make a move, Cao Cao had already rushed to the position where the second gate guard wooden man was standing.
"Alright! You've passed. The wooden ape scratched his head and said slowly.
The second level, the third level, the fourth level, and all the way to the sixtieth level, Cao Cao went all the way unimpeded.
The keeper of the sixty-first pass is a literati scholar, he holds a folding fan in his hand, and said to Cao Cao with a smile on his face: "I have long heard that Cao Gong's poetry is excellent, and I am fortunate to see it today, I don't know if I can drink a few songs?" ”
"Yes, please advise!" Cao Cao also wants to take this opportunity to take a break, so let's have a friend with it!
"Cao Gong, I don't want to delay you too much, as long as you can conquer me with a poem, I will count you as passing!"
"Really?"
"Yes. I would love to see and hear for myself how Cao Gong created it. ”
Cao Cao paced back and forth for a moment, and then, a poem written by a great man suddenly came to mind.
"There are so many delicate rivers and mountains, leading countless heroes to bend their waists. It is a pity that the Qin Emperor and the Han Dynasty are slightly inferior to the literary talents, the Tang Dynasty and the Song Ancestors are slightly less coquettish, and a generation of Tianjiao Genghis Khan, who only knows how to bend the bow and shoot the eagle, all the past, several romantic characters, and look at the present dynasty. ”
"Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful. You've passed. ”
"You know?"
"Of course, don't look at me as just a wooden man, I know astronomy and geography, and I read the past and the present. You can recite such heroic poetry, why should I make it difficult for you here? ”
"Thank you!" Cao Cao arched his hand at him and walked towards the next level.
Standing in the middle of the road connecting the sixty-first and sixty-second passes, Cao Cao frowned. He felt that these one hundred and eight wooden figures were really not simple.
The previous 60 levels were not that they couldn't, but that they deliberately let themselves pass. Just like the literati before him, if he really wanted to let himself stay, would he still be standing here just by reciting that poem?
The keeper of the sixty-second level, Cao Cao had already seen before, was the pretty woman.
"Uncle, I didn't expect you to have some skills to make it all the way here."
"Fluke, fluke. Lone didn't expect you wooden people to be so hospitable, and Lone was grateful. ”
"Even if you still have a little conscience, you know that this is our deliberate release of water. It's just that I don't know if you can understand a truth, the grace of a drop of water will be reciprocated by a spring. We are releasing water to you today in the hope that you will help us in the future. ”
"Oh? As long as Lone can help, even if you open your mouth, Lone will definitely not refuse. ”
"Good! That's what you said. Feed! You all heard that! If that day comes and he forgets the promise he made today, you know what to do! ”
"Yes, yes. Roar, roar, roar! The wooden ape guarding the first level was the first to open his mouth and reply.
Cao Cao turned to look behind him, and he found that the wooden people guarding the sixty-first level before were standing not far behind him at this time.
"Please rest assured, Lone is a man who keeps his promises, and since he has promised you, he will never break his word."
"We are very relieved of you, if you dare to break your promise, we will let you accompany us." The elegant wooden literati shouted to Cao Cao with a smile.
"Thank you!" Cao Cao didn't know why, he solemnly bent down and bowed down to them.
In his heart, he did not worship the wooden people, but the sages of the past dynasties, and even the ancient sages. He believed in his feelings, and he believed in it.
"Alright, go back! I'll give him a way, too. We are good talkers, but the latter are not so good talkers. Let's not waste his time.
If he hadn't passed Mozi's test, then everything we do now would be like the flowing water of white flowers. ”
The pretty woman's words fell, and the sixty-one wooden men left the place very calmly.
"Good luck, as long as you work hard, there should be enough time."
"Borrow your auspicious words, and go alone."
