Chapter 26 Liu Bei Tuo Gu

It is said that Liu Bei was stationed in Yong'an Palace in Baidi City, and the fighting eased a little. That day, when Liu Bei woke up, he felt bad. He felt dizzy for a while, and his heart tensed and relaxed.Seeing that he was not well, Left and Right hurriedly supported Liu Bei to bed and rested. Liu Bei ordered weakly: "I can't do it, you call Prime Minister Zhuge quickly, I want to explain the funeral!" When Zhuge Liang arrived in a hurry, Liu Bei was already lying on the bed and gasping for breath.Seeing that Zhuge Liang had arrived, Liu Bei held his hand and said, "Old Zhu, you and I have worked together for many years, and it seems that we are going to say goodbye today!"

Zhuge Liang wept and said: Your Majesty, don't say such depressing words. Now that medical skills are so advanced, I will go and find Hua Tuo who used to scrape Guan Yu's bones to cure poison. He will definitely bring you back to life! Liu Bei was not happy: what brought the dead back to life, am I not dead yet?Zhuge Liang apologized again and again: I'm sorry, I made a mistake!It should make you immortal!Liu Bei was even more uncomfortable: I'm not dead yet, so how can I talk about immortality?Zhuge Liang said in a low voice: But aren't you dying soon?Liu Bei said angrily: Wow!What are you talking about?

Zhuge Liang slapped himself and said: Oh, why am I always speechless today—how can I say the wrong thing in front of a dying person!Liu Bei's beard is all up: dying - dying - man? Zhuge Liang knelt down and cried: Forget it!Long live the emperor!I won't say it well - I will use another two words instead!Liu Bei asked: Which two words?Zhuge Liang said: That!Liu Bei nodded and said: This is not too bad!I called you here to discuss my future affairs with you. You talk about your plans first. Zhuge Liang said: After the emperor, the crown prince Liu Chan must inherit your great cause. I will work hard to assist the crown prince Liu Chan, conquer Cao Wei in the north, conquer Dongwu in the south, and dominate the world forever!Complete your unfinished volunteers.

Liu Bei sighed: fulfill my wish, do you know what my real wish is?Zhuge Liang shook his head.Liu Bei fumbled and took out a pair of tattered straw sandals from his arms and said: This—is my wish!Zhuge Liang was surprised and said: "Could it be——does the emperor have a special love for broken shoes?" Liu Bei shook his head and said solemnly: "Lao Lao Lao!" ——It is to make thousands of pairs of shoes!From the day I became a sworn brother in Taoyuan, I made an oath that I must achieve three ten thousand in this life!Zhuge Liang asked: May I ask which three are ten thousand?Liu Bei said proudly: Travel thousands of miles, read thousands of books, make thousands of pairs of straw sandals!

Zhuge Liang muttered in a low voice: Isn't it true that you can travel thousands of miles on bad roads, read thousands of books, and make thousands of pairs of broken shoes?Liu Bei glared at Zhuge Liang and said: "This pair of straw sandals is the last pair I made, which is the 10,000th pair of straw sandals, but there is still a heel that has not been tied properly!" Zhuge Liang said: "Then what should we do?"Liu Bei took Zhuge Liang's hand and said: My son Liu Chan is not around, so I have to pass on this exclusive craftsmanship to you first, and then you pass it on to Prince Liu Chan!As for your IQ, I'll accept you as my apprentice without humiliation. You can start apprenticeship!

Zhuge Liang knelt down to worship his master with tears in his eyes, and shouted in his mouth: "The emperor's master is on the top, and I will be worshiped by my humble minister and apprentice!" From then on, Zhuge Liang began to learn how to play sandals with Liu Bei, three times a day, one hour each time. The strange thing is that since Liu Bei accepted Zhuge Liang as his apprentice who played straw sandals, his mental and physical health improved day by day, and he didn't talk about the funeral anymore. Helpless, Zhuge Liang had no feeling for playing straw sandals at all, so Liu Bei had to teach him patiently.The hard work paid off, and after studying with Liu Bei for seventy-seven forty-nine days, Zhuge Liang finally made a pair of straw sandals by himself.

This morning, Zhuge Liang rushed into Liu Bei's bedroom with his straw sandals and said: "I succeeded!"I have learnt it!I finally made my first pair of straw sandals! Ma Su next to him asked coldly: Why is the prime minister so ecstatic with the vegetable basket? Zhuge Liang pointed to the straw sandals in his hand and said: Is this a vegetable basket? Ma Su asked back: Isn't it? Zhuge Liang gritted his teeth and said: This——is——————————————————————————————————————SHOES!You see clearly.Ma Di murmured: "It's obviously a vegetable basket, and it's also called straw sandals. In ancient times, donkeys were referred to as horses, but today, vegetable baskets are referred to as straw sandals!"

Zhuge Liang scolded: "If you don't understand, don't say anything!" From then on, Zhuge Liang held a grudge against Ma Su.As a result, Ma Su lost the street pavilion and was killed. In fact, it was Ma Su who talked too much.This is all for later. Liu Bei pointed to Zhuge Liang and said, "Why did the apprentice come in with a vegetable basket? Did he buy vegetables for his teacher?"Zhuge Liang said: I didn't take the vegetable basket, these are the straw sandals I made! Liu Bei smiled and said: Don't tease me!I am very happy now. Zhuge Liang blushed and said: "This is really the straw sandal I made. Although the size is a little bit bigger, it is the straw sandal after all!"The difference from the vegetable basket is still very big!

Liu Bei laughed loudly: Tuer, Tuer, the jokes you usually tell are not as good as today's, ha-ha, I laughed so hard! Zhuge Liang had no choice but to go downhill, and laughed a few times. Liu Bei groped to take out the 10,000th pair of straw sandals again, and said: This is the wealth I left to the crown prince Liu Chan, you let him remember it well - if he doesn't finish this pair of straw sandals, he is not worthy to be my Great Shu Kingdom the emperor! Zhuge Liang said: All right!I remember.Then, my lord, let me ask you a secret - when will you do that? Liu Bei said: I am old, that is no longer enough!

Zhuge Liang blushed again: I am not talking about the emperor, the emperor is in such a bad health, how can he do that!I said that! Liu Bei said: Yes!I'm talking about that! Zhuge Liang was embarrassed to say it, so he had to say: The one the emperor thinks is different from the one I said!Forget it.So am I going back to Chengdu now to teach Liu Chan how to play straw sandals? Liu Bei said: Good!Then when are you leaving? Zhuge Liang said: I think we should leave now. Liu Bei waved his hand and said: You go first, teach Liu Chan to play straw sandals as soon as possible! So Zhuge Liang hurried back to Chengdu.Prince Liu Chan heard that his father, Liu Bei, was dying of illness, and immediately cried out in pain, "My dear father, don't you even want the last pair of straw sandals?"

Zhuge Liang comforted him and said: "Actually, when I left, the emperor's spirit was fine, but I just ask you to learn how to play the straw sandals well!"This was your father's only wish before that. So Liu Chan learned to play straw sandals with Zhuge Liang every day. But this Liu Chan was even more dull. He was a little interested in learning in the first two days, and then he was perfunctory. Zhuge Liang coaxed and deceived him. Eighty-one days later, Liu Chan finally took his first pair of straw sandals and said to Zhuge Liang: I found it!I have learnt it!My first pair of straw sandals came out! Zhuge Liang pointed to Liu Chan's hand and said, "Why did you take out the baskets of Chinese cabbage in the cafeteria?" Liu Chan said: "Is this a big basket?" The surrounding civil and military ministers and Zhuge Liang nodded heavily and said: This is indeed a basket containing Chinese cabbage! Liu Chan stammered: Of course, this and that may have different worldviews and different perspectives for each person. I am a magnanimous person, and I can tolerate such differences!But, I insist, this is an out-and-out straw sandal! Zhuge Liang squinted his eyes and looked left and right, then nodded and said: Well, now I have finally changed my opinion-this thing really looks like a pair of straw sandals!Then Zhuge Liang asked the ministers around him: What do you think? Everyone said in unison: Yes, after the prime minister's instructions - we can see clearly!Congratulations to the prince! Liu Chan smiled: Hehe, I can finally inherit my father's great cause! So Zhuge Liang took Liu Chan to Baidi City to meet Liu Bei. In Baidi City, Liu Bei was still lying on the bed.Zhuge Liang went in and shouted happily: "Your Majesty, you don't have that yet!"Guess who I brought?Liu Bei sat up all of a sudden: ah!Is it my old friend Cuihua in Xinye?Just in time, I haven't had that in a long time!Zhuge Liang was discouraged and said: "Why is the emperor guessing randomly?" Liu Bei rubbed his hands together and said, "Then—I see, it's the little plum blossom from Yingchun Hall in Jingzhou, right?"Zhuge Liang said: Wrong again!Directional error! Liu Bei laughed and said: You old Zhu!At this time, let me guess—ah, it can’t be the chrysanthemum in Beihai, right? In the end, Liu Chan couldn't help but stepped in and said, "Father, I heard that you want that!"I made a special trip from Chengdu to see you! Liu Bei frowned and said, "You bad boy—what's your father's opinion of that?"Also made a special trip to see! Zhuge Liang shook his head and sighed: It's a mess!It's a mess! Liu Bei said to Liu Chan: Hey!It's good that you're here!I have a lot of last words to say to you!When you were away, I was still thinking - how can I pass on so many outstanding deeds in my life to you!There are so many things, there is no one or half a year, how can I finish it! There was only a plop, and Zhuge Liang had already fainted to the ground.
