On this day, Ding Huai brought a few servants out of the city to hunt as usual. There was a dense forest outside the city. In the past, wild rabbits, pheasants, and foxes would often appear. Every time Ding Huai hunted, he would return with a full load. However, Ding Huai suddenly felt that it was especially strange today. There was not even a rabbit in the place where animals usually appeared.
This made Ding Huai very depressed. He felt inexplicably irritated. He only felt that his heart was blocked, and he could not help but whip the horse. This was the first time the horse had been whipped by its owner, and it immediately felt abnormal pain. It spread its four hooves and ran deep into the forest.
The servant behind could clearly see that the little master had always cherished this horse very much. He had never whipped it like today. He must be in a bad mood today. Recalling the various tricks that little master had used to prank people in the past, the servants did not even dare to breathe loudly. They looked at each other in dismay until they realized that Ding Huai's figure was about to disappear into the forest. Only then did the servants react and hurriedly follow in case something happened to little master.
Unexpectedly, the more he didn't want things to happen, the easier it was for them to happen.
Ding Huai was running when suddenly there was a clap of thunder on the ground. Ding Huai's pony was frightened for the first time. It kept raising its front hooves and neighing to the sky. In addition, the horses in ancient times did not have stirrers, so Ding Huai was suddenly thrown off the horse. This fall made Ding Huai dizzy and unconscious. He fainted at that moment.
Right at this moment, a purple light flew over from the thunderbolt. In an instant, it entered Ding Huai's body and disappeared in a flash. No one noticed.
When the servants arrived, they found Ding Huai already lying on the ground, foaming at the corner of his mouth. It was unknown if he was dead or alive. Everyone was instantly stunned. They stood rooted to the ground and even forgot to get off their horses. After a long while, someone shouted,"Quickly dismount and send little master back to the residence.”
Only then did everyone come to their senses. They dismounted one after another and hurriedly carried Ding Huai onto Ding Huan's horse before rushing back to the Provincial Governor's Office.
In the Provincial Governor's Office, Ding Yuan was pacing back and forth in front of Ding Huai's bedroom with his hands behind his back. His brows were tightly furrowed, while Concubine Kong was holding onto a pillar beside her and sobbing non-stop. Beside her, Chun Xiang and Qiu Yue were holding on to Concubine Kong's arm. At the bottom of the stairs, Ding Huan and the other servants who had accompanied Ding Huai out to hunt were kneeling on the ground. All of them had their heads drooped and looked miserable. They had been kneeling here for a day and a night, and their knees were already swollen. However, without Ding Yuan's orders, no one dared to get up casually.
Suddenly, the door opened and two doctors walked out. Ding Yuan stepped forward and grabbed their arms. He asked anxiously,"How is it?"
The two of them looked ashamed. They sighed and shook their heads. Ding Yuan's heart immediately darkened. One of them said,"Young Master's condition is really strange. We have been doctors for decades, but we have never seen such symptoms. Just by looking at Young Master's body, there is no damage. However, why has he been unconscious? It's really that..."
Ding Yuan was furious. This was already the 57th physician who had said this, and their words were almost identical. All the slightly famous physicians in Jinyang City had been invited to the residence by Ding Yuan, and everyone said the same thing.
Ding Yuan grabbed the doctor's collar and shouted hysterically,""Get lost." In the end, these two doctors had the same fate and escaped from the Provincial Governor's Office in a sorry state.
Concubine Kong even washed her face with tears. She burned incense for Ding Huai almost every day, begging the heavens to bless Ding Huai to wake up as soon as possible.
The entire Provincial Governor's Estate had also lost its usual vitality because of Ding Huai, this little devil, being unconscious. Everywhere was lifeless.
In the blink of an eye, half a month had passed. Under the temptation of Ding Yuan's huge reward, although many doctors entered the residence to treat Ding Huai's illness, not a single person was able to wake Ding Huai up.
It was not until one day, the arrival of a legendary old Taoist priest, that Ding Huai survived this calamity and woke up. That was how the scene at the beginning of the book happened. It was the arrival of this old Taoist priest that ended Ding Huai's life, and allowed a person from the future, Kong Yuan, to start a brand new legendary life for Ding Huai in this noisy Three Kingdoms era.
Speaking of this old Taoist priest, he was none other than Zuo Ci, who was one of the three great immortals at the end of the Han Dynasty, along with Taoist Nanhua and Taoist Yu Ji. The three immortals of the Three Kingdoms were not immortals. After all, there were no immortals in this world. They were all extremely old people who knew how to cultivate their bodies and keep themselves healthy. Moreover, these three people were amazing in their studies. They were all extraordinary people of their generation. Therefore, many people at that time made it their lifelong goal to be able to devote themselves to these three people.
Take Sun Ce for example. According to historical records, Sun Ce was killed by Xu Gong's henchmen after killing the prefect of Wu County. In fact, Sun Ce's real cause of death was not just this, but because he was abandoned by everyone after killing Yu Ji. If he did not die to atone for his sins, River East would definitely change hands again.
Among the three of them, Taoist Priest Nanhua was the oldest and was already over a hundred years old. Yu Ji was ninety years old, and Zuo Ci was the youngest and was already eighty years old. Zuo Ci had always respected Priest Nanhua as his teacher. In the end, Nanhua agreed to let Zuo Ci become a disciple of Nanhua.
This time, Zuo Ci happened to pass by Jinyang and discovered that a strange lightning bolt had descended from the sky. Purple light had entered the human world, and a Holy Lord had definitely descended. Later on, when he heard that Ding Huai had been out hunting and was struck by lightning and fell unconscious, he had already guessed something. Originally, Zuo Ci could have immediately rushed to the Provincial Governor's Estate and used the Magical Hand Rejuvenation Technique to wake Ding Huai up.
Later on, Zuo Ci thought about it and realized that now was not the right time. If the doctors were helpless and Ding Yuan was helpless, wouldn't the results be better? That was why Zuo Ci revealed the results when Ding Huai was unconscious for twenty days.
The Ding couple was delighted to hear from their servants that a wandering old Taoist priest had announced the results.
In the Eastern Han Dynasty, Buddhism had already spread to China, but it had yet to be officially established. On the other hand, Taoism had long become the orthodox religion. Because some Taoists could summon the wind and rain and see the life and death of people, many nobles trusted the Taoist people very much. Ding Yuan and his wife were the same, so when they heard that a wandering Taoist priest had announced the results, the couple quickly went out to welcome Zuo Ci into the residence.
In fact, the ancient cultivators were not all immortals who could summon the wind and rain. They just knew more about the changes in the weather than the people at that time. That was to say, they were well versed in the weather, so they could guess when the wind would rise and when it would rain. Of course, this was just human observation. It was impossible to be as accurate as the weather forecast in the future. It was already very high to be able to guess it correctly seven or eight times out of ten times. The remaining two or three times could naturally be explained away. There was another skill that these Taoists had to learn, which was the art of fortune-telling. This was also the reason why some Taoists could know someone's life and death. If they could master these two skills, they would definitely be worshipped by the people and be regarded as immortals.
The most famous Taoists during the Three Kingdoms period were Nanhua, Yu Ji, and Zuo Ci. Nanhua's 'The Art of Peace,' Yu Ji's 'The Way of Peace,' and Zuo Ci's 'The Book of Dun Jia' were the essence of their cultivation and were treasured books that people dreamed of. In fact, the contents of these three books were roughly the same. They mainly recorded the necessary Taoist techniques such as the art of weather, the art of medicine, and the art of divination. Out of the three books, Zuo Ci's " The Edict of Dun Jia " was the most powerful. Why was that? Zuo Ci's cultivation was already very high. Later, he became a disciple of the Old Immortal of Nanhua, and his cultivation improved further. Therefore, the " The Edict of Dun Jia " that he summarized was ranked first among the three books.
In the process of diagnosis, Zuo Ci discovered that Ding Huai's fate was one of embarrassment. He also discovered that this fate was gradually fading away, and the new fate had not really appeared yet. This was the change in the fate that was no longer recorded in the book 'Divination.' This was also the reason why Ding Huai had been unconscious for a long time. From ancient times until now, there had only been three times that the transformation had occurred. Each time, it would cause the life of the person who had undergone the transformation to undergo an extreme change, either from extremely good to extremely bad, or from extremely bad to extremely good. The three people who had experienced the transformation were Qin Shihuang, Xiang Yu, and Liu Xiu, Emperor Guangwu.
From the names of these three people, you might have discovered a characteristic of the change of appearance, that is, the person who experienced the change of appearance must have something to do with the Nine and Five Venerables, or make a person who should not have the throne experience the change of appearance and become an emperor. Qin Shihuang and Liu Xiu were like this, or make a person who should have the throne lose the opportunity to be an emperor or even lose his life. Xiang Yu was like this.
Therefore, every time there was a change of appearance, it meant that the world was about to fall into chaos and the world was about to change its master. This new master must have some great connection with the person who had experienced the change of appearance. Either he became the new master of the world, or he became his opponent and took over the world.
