""In that case, we indeed have a connection, Brother Liang! I thank you!" Zhuge Liang bowed. "Today, I borrow your hand to reignite the Seven Stars. I hope Heaven favors our Shu Han and allows me to fight this battle, ensuring peace for Young Master for several years. In doing so, I can also face the First Emperor with honor."
Lu Cheng wanted to speak but stopped himself.
That day, heavy rain poured from the sky. Sima Yi escaped from Shanggu Valley. Heaven released a tiger back into the mountains, but today my younger brother helped me, which can be considered divine will. It remains to be seen who will ultimately prevail. I will devise another plan to capture and kill Sima Yi.
Lu Cheng looked at the old man before him, unsure of how to begin. Countless heroes, each with their own ideals, had forged a magnificent era. But in the end, the Han Dynasty fell, and the Three Kingdoms were unified under Jin.
Zhuge Liang was very skilled at observing people and discerning their thoughts.
"Junior brother, feel free to speak your mind."
"Actually, the battle is over. Brother Kongming, you've done your best,"
"Done"
Upon hearing this, Zhuge Liang was taken aback. He didn't understand at first, and then slowly sat down, falling into deep thought.
When calling upon the power of the Seven Stars, the Big Dipper hexagram clearly told him that he would not succeed.
But today, Senior Brother Lu Cheng right in front of me actually rekindled the Seven Stars Lamp. But what does he mean
“What's the point of fighting when it's over”
"Just as the surface meaning, senior brother, it's all over." Lu sighed.
Zhuge Liang was extraordinary. At this moment, he understood that the junior brother who could rekindle the Seven Star Lamp must know something.
Indeed, astrology never lies.
"Is my time as a minister of the Shu Han nearing its end" Zhuge Liang sighed deeply. "I have a question, brother, can you enlighten me"
"Brother Kongming, please speak."
"Did Wei ultimately win"
"None."
> "Did Jiangdong seize control of the world"
"Neither," Lu Cheng shook his head.
"Senior brother," Lu Cheng scratched his head.
"You know When I was little, I often sunbathed in the yard, grabbed some melon seeds from grandma's room and flipped through history books."
Zhuge Liang calmly watched Lu Cheng, waiting for him to finish speaking.
"The book also has illustrations, which are really pretty. I just kept looking at the little drawings, page by page. I skimmed through them lightly. If a page was good-looking, I’d take my time; if not, I'd flip past it in two swipes. Before, I always felt that history books were too thin, not enough to read."
Lu Cheng smiled and shook his head.
But later, as I grew up and experienced life's events firsthand, I truly understood that phrase. The few minutes of my childhood might have encompassed the entirety of your tumultuous lives.
"Junior Brother"
"But I don't know if my senior brother can understand. History books are truly thick, containing a brilliant civilization. Whether it was the Zhou, Qin, Han, or Wei dynasties, time keeps changing. The Han dynasty may not have been revived, but the world is still the same world." Lu Cheng paused. "My senior brother's life, in the grand scheme of Chinese history, is truly insignificant. The entire Eastern Han Dynasty lasted only two hundred years. But you are bricks, tiles, nails, countless heroes and heroes who together forged China's five thousand years of history."
"What did you say!" Zhuge Liang was exceptionally shocked. This wasn't some divination or prophecy after all.
He couldn't accept for a moment that he had become history, that his story was being written into the annals.
"Senior brother, your story ends today," Lu Cheng said to Zhuge Liang. "It was truly wonderful. At least I loved reading it when I was little."
Before travelling through time, Lu Cheng even visited the Wuhou Temple in Sichuan. To this day, the incense there remains strong and popular.
"Is that so" Zhuge Liang sighed deeply.
"Yes, the Eastern Han Dynasty ultimately lasted for 195 years before its demise. The unification of the Three Kingdoms under Jin has already occurred, but if, brother,"
Lu Cheng didn't want to deceive Kong Ming, and he couldn't possibly deceive him.
But Zhuge Liang's lifelong goal was to restore the Han Dynasty, Lu Cheng knew this was a card expansion pack, a projection of real China in another world.
Here, Zhuge Liang could indeed continue for a few more years, perhaps even changing history with his own black card in one yuan. Since they share the same origin, he could even help Kong Ming.
But you have to make it clear to him that history really happened. As for the rest, Master Kongming is much more capable than I am, he'll be able to figure it out on his own.
Zhuge Liang looked at the only lamp still burning in the room, lost in thought. After a long while, he raised his head.
"How long has the story of China been around"
"It's very long, and it's still going on." Lu Cheng answered without hesitation.
"Younger brother, I have one last question." Zhuge Liang looked up at Lu Cheng, "To this day, are the people's lives peaceful and secure Are the mountains and rivers unharmed"
Lu Cheng thought for a moment.
"The sea changes, the years change, over thousands of years, there have been winds and rains, sometimes even towering waves. But fortunately, we are still here, and so are you."
"Alright then."
Zhuge Liang stood up, as if he had understood.
"If that's the case, it has indeed become rather pale. After all, without defeating Cao Wei, Shu Han would have inevitably perished. But this world ultimately belongs to the vast land of China. It seems like the time has finally come to bring it to an end."
Lu Cheng deeply agreed.
If you have to say that the Jin dynasty won, then there was the Eight Kings' Rebellion after, and the Five Husbands' Chaos. Sima Yi must have known that he fought his whole life, only to end up in this situation. He would have to be furious to survive.
"Brother, you wouldn't have come here today to reminisce about childhood memories, would you" Zhuge Liang looked at Lü Chengdao.
"Brother, I'm here to ask for your help! To be honest, I somehow arrived in a new world. Our civilization has new stories to write there, and we need your assistance!"
Lu Cheng touched his face, he had inexplicably crossed over.
"Oh A new world" Zhuge Liang stood up and didn't answer directly. He only slowly walked to the entrance of the big tent: "Junior brother, I want to take a walk. Would you like to come with me"
"Alright, let's go with my senior brother." Lu Cheng didn't know what Kong Ming was planning.
Exiting the military tent, inside the Shu army's camp, Jiang Wei was directing soldiers in caring for the wounded. Everywhere was a scene of bustle, but orderly and efficient.
"Prime Minister,"
"Prime Minister"
Every passing Shu army soldier greeted Zhuge Liang kindly.
Zhuge Liang replied one by one.
Lu Cheng followed Zhuge Liang to a hill, where the moon shone brightly in the sky and insects chirped all around.
Zhuge Liang stood firm: "Younger brother, you said that when you were young, you loved to read stories about me and others, so as you grew up, didn't you stop reading them"
"I've watched it several times, even memorized it," Lu Cheng swatted at the mosquitoes and replied casually.
"Haha." Zhuge Liang suddenly smiled.
"Why are you laughing, senior brother"
Zhuge Liang did not answer, only calmly straightened his robes and faced the flickering campfires.
"The scenery is beautiful, but all good things must come to an end. Zhuge Liang, the Prime Minister of Han, has decided to leave first!"
The card [臥龍諸葛亮] has been added to your deck!

and so on, and also !!!
My God, it's so hot, what the heck is going on with the weather latelymp the source of fire. After much deliberation, Lu Chengsi proposed that heavenly fire be infused with the ethereal energy of Kunlun Mountains, transforming it into the [Industry Fire] lineage.The Era...
