My head was spinning, and I almost vomited out my heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys. I was completely confused.
At this critical moment, the adjutant beside me suddenly said, "Sir, how should we handle this?"
"What?" I instinctively asked.
"As you command." The adjutant solemnly saluted and then escorted a prisoner out.
What's going on?
Before I could react, the adjutant returned with a blood-soaked head on a wooden tray.
"Ugh!"
The smell of blood overwhelmed me, and I couldn't control myself. I vomited up my dinner.
"Sir, what's wrong?" The adjutant patted my back with concern. "Are you feeling unwell? Should I call Hua Tuo?"
"Who are you talking about?" I was stunned.
"Hua Tuo, the famous physician from Qiao County!"
It's confirmed. I've damn well ended up in the Three Kingdoms.
Then who am I?
"I..." Asking such a direct question seemed idiotic. I cleared my throat, pretending to be composed, and said, "Let me ask you, where did this head come from?"
"Cao Cao, styled Mengde. The Imperial Inspector Dong Zhuo issued a wanted document to arrest this bandit." The adjutant explained seriously, "Today, he passed through our Zhongmou County and attempted to disguise himself with dirt on his face to evade capture. However, I saw through his identity and captured him. I thought the sir would interrogate him, but unexpectedly, you gave the order to kill him. Your method was clean and efficient, and I admire it."
What the hell!
Did I kill Cao Cao?
You fucking admire me for nothing! When did I say to kill him?
No, I'm feeling even more dizzy now.
After a while, I figured it out. I am now Chen Gong, the magistrate of Zhongmou County. Tonight, I was supposed to meet Cao Cao and love and kill each other for a lifetime, eventually dying gallantly at the Baimen Tower, leaving Cao Cao alone in the wind.
However, I didn't know the situation just now and casually asked "What?" The adjutant misheard it as "Kill," and the cunning hero Cao Cao turned into a severed head.
Things have gotten out of hand.
Dong Zhuo's domination of the capital was just the beginning of the Three Kingdoms era. Cao Cao's assassination had just taken place, and he was passing through here on his escape route. Many significant events in history will be affected by this. I've killed him now, so what unimaginable changes will occur?
Of course, Lu Bu should thank me.
If I leave Zhongmou County with Cao Cao, passing by Lu Bu's home, he would have treated us to a feast of roasted pork and ended up being massacred by the suspicious Cao Cao.
While I was lost in thought, the earth suddenly trembled, and dust fell from the ceiling.
"What's happening?" I quickly asked.
The adjutant ran out upon hearing the question and quickly returned, reporting, "Sir, there's an earthquake. The city is in chaos. Should I go and maintain order?"
"Then why are you still standing there? Go quickly!" I yelled at him impatiently.
I'm really annoyed by him now. Killing someone is such a big deal. Can't he confirm it first?
"Hahaha..."
Shortly after the adjutant left, a person walked in, laughing loudly.
The person was dressed in a green robe, elegant and thin, with white hair and a pair of wise eyes.
"Who are you?" I asked curiously.
"I am Sima Hui," he replied.
That name sounds familiar!
Wait a minute, Sima Hui, isn't he the Master Shuijing (Water Mirror) Mr.?
Why is this old man showing up at this time? He should be in Yingchuan!
"Master Shuijing, what advice do you have?" I pretended to be calm.
"I observed the celestial signs tonight and found that a world-shaking figure is about to perish. Itseems that my arrival here has disrupted the natural course of events," Sima Hui said with a mysterious smile.
"You mean Cao Cao?" I asked cautiously.
Sima Hui nodded. "Indeed. Cao Cao's fate was intertwined with the fate of the Three Kingdoms. His absence will undoubtedly lead to significant changes in history."
"What should I do now?" I asked anxiously.
Sima Hui's eyes sparkled with wisdom. "Chen Gong, you possess the knowledge of the future. Use it wisely. Embrace this opportunity to alter the course of history and shape a new path for the land."
I was taken aback. Sima Hui's words filled me with both excitement and trepidation. The responsibility of altering history weighed heavily on my shoulders.
"Master Shuijing, can you guide me? Help me understand the events that will unfold and the choices I should make," I requested.
Sima Hui nodded approvingly. "Very well, Chen Gong. I will share with you my visions and insights. Together, we shall navigate this turbulent era and forge a new destiny for the Three Kingdoms."
And so, in that chaotic night, with the guidance of Sima Hui, I embarked on a journey to reshape history. Armed with my knowledge of the future, I sought to bring about a different outcome for the Three Kingdoms and the heroes who shaped its fate.
The path ahead was uncertain, but I was determined to seize this opportunity and make a lasting impact. The era of the Three Kingdoms was about to witness unprecedented changes, and I, Chen Gong, would play a pivotal role in shaping its destiny.
Little did I know the challenges and adventures that awaited me, but with Sima Hui by my side, I was ready to face them head-on.
