All-Heavens Game, the Strongest Player

Chapter 33 The Young Zhuge Liang

Knowing that Zhuge Liang is the final boss in the later stages of the game, players will definitely try to find him. After learning of Zhuge Liang's existence from the players, the warlords will also send people to search for him.

However, no one ever found Zhuge Liang in his childhood.

It didn't start from this game, but from the start of the game of all heavens. To this day, no one has been able to find Zhuge Liang in advance during the development period, let alone kill him.

Chu Xiu had always been curious about where Zhuge Liang had gone.

It's worth noting that his relatives weren't hard to find; both of his older sisters had married and moved to Jingzhou, so a little inquiry would have been enough to pinpoint their locations. His teacher, Mr. Shui Jing (Sima Hui), was also a top-tier scholar, and many other prominent figures knew him.

Although my father-in-law, Huang Chengyan, is rarely seen, the Huang family is a prominent family in Jingzhou, so he is not difficult to find.

The problem is, finding them is easy, but finding Zhuge Liang is difficult.

An eight-year-old child vanished into thin air—it's incredibly bizarre!
Now, Chu Xiu finally knows why he disappeared: he hid among the common people, making himself dirty and like a homeless orphan. Who could find him?
Kong Hui is a complete alias. The bright and shining one is Kongming!

The eight-year-old boy before me is none other than Zhuge Liang, the ultimate boss of the Three Kingdoms era and the archetype of the strategist Zhuge Liang. And Kong Yueying is none other than Zhuge Liang's fiancée, Huang Yueying, who adopted her husband's surname and changed her name to Kong Yueying when using an alias!
As for why he ended up hanging out with Lü Lingqi...

That's because in chaotic times, human life is cheap, and after Zhuge Liang left home, he could have died at any moment. Only by infiltrating the circle of the children of important figures like Lü Lingqi could he conceal his identity and ensure his own safety.

"I told you, you need to change your name. Changing only the surname won't fool anyone!"

Once his identity was exposed, Zhuge Liang stopped hiding and transformed from a dirty-looking, somewhat dull child into a little adult with bright, intelligent eyes, seemingly possessing boundless wisdom.

It's not that Chu Xiu is being self-deprecating.

At this moment, he even felt that with his adult wisdom, he might not be able to compare with the eight-year-old Zhuge Liang in front of him!

Six-year-old Huang Yueying, after removing her disguise, has eyes that are completely different from those of ordinary children—not to mention, little Lingqi next to her looks a bit dull compared to her!
"Knowing you'd be found out, you still dared to come over? Aren't you afraid I'll just stab you?" Chu Xiu said.

“No, you are different from other gods. You see mortals as human beings, not as moving plants!” Zhuge Liang said. “Under such circumstances, you would not easily kill someone unless that person poses a great threat to you. But clearly, I am not a threat to you at all right now.”

As he spoke, he stretched out his two chubby little hands.

"But when you grow up, you'll eventually become a threat!"

"That might be true for others, but it might not be true for you!" Zhuge Liang shook his head and said, "I don't know you very well, but I have observed other gods from afar and found that apart from their special destinies and their non-human nature, they are actually no different from ordinary people. But you are different. With the restoration of your 'divine power,' you will become stronger than you can imagine!"

This surprised Chu Xiu.

"You can even tell that?"

Upon hearing this, Zhuge Liang glanced at him and said, "As long as a person exists, there will always be traces. And if you observe carefully, you can see a lot from those traces."

"All right!"

In the end, Zhuge Liang, along with Huang Yueying and Lü Lingqi, became Chu Xiu's disciples. Originally, Chu Xiu thought that after his identity was exposed, Zhuge Liang would no longer need to become his disciple, but Zhuge Liang insisted on becoming his disciple.

Learn some things from Chu Xiu.

For example, the writing system, culture, and history of Earth.

He seemed quite interested in those things. Huang Yueying, on the other hand, wanted to learn some scientific concepts from Chu Xiu—Chu Xiu naturally didn't have time to teach apprentices, so he only promised to answer their questions when they inquired.

As for Lü Lingqi, they were simply left to her own devices.

The precociousness of people in ancient times was not limited to early marriage; some became officials at the age of nine and were ennobled as marquises and prime ministers at the age of twelve. Lu Lingqi has already learned all of Lu Bu's martial arts skills.

With practice, one can become a first-rate military commander as one grows older.

……

After defeating Dong Zhuo's army, no one could stop the warlords. Yuan Shao, Sun Jian, and Cao Cao all led their armies to Luoyang, preparing to "purge the court of corrupt officials" and eliminate all of Dong Zhuo's remaining followers.

But at this moment, something unexpected happened to the feudal lords.

Led by Lü Bu, the Bingzhou cavalry, along with Li Jue and Guo Si, the supreme commanders of the Xiliang army after Dong Zhuo's death, turned around and arrested Dong Zhuo's entire family, including his daughter and son-in-law, and hanged them in front of the gates of Luoyang.

Not a single one was spared, including Li Ru, who had once had a fairly good relationship with Lü Bu.

The emperor issued an order to appoint Lü Bu as "Grand Marshal," commanding all the troops in the land. Although it was only a nominal title, it undoubtedly showed one thing: Lü Bu had sided with the emperor!
To be precise, they sided with the "Empress Dowager Wu Zetian," the player who came from behind the emperor.

When the feudal lords arrived in Luoyang, Empress Dowager Wu Zetian, holding Liu Xie's small hand, stood on the city gate tower, with Lü Bu beside her. In an unquestionable voice, she said, "The traitor has been eliminated. The feudal lords are permitted to enter the palace with swords and shoes to discuss state affairs. However, they may only bring one hundred guards into the city. Those who disobey will be punished for treason!"

This startled all the feudal lords.

Even Cao Cao, who had known all along that the court had been overthrown, was very surprised and asked Chu Xiu, "What exactly happened? Lu Bu also has a celestial being by his side, how could he suddenly join forces with another celestial being?"

Chu Xiu was also surprised by this.

The imperial court was already in dire straits. After Dong Zhuo's death, Liu Xie no longer had any proper troops under his command. How could he possibly get Lü Bu to submit?
In particular, Lü Shengnan joined forces with Empress Dowager Wu Zetian.

For her, wouldn't it have been a better option to simply eliminate Empress Wu Zetian and the other two, allowing Lü Bu to seize the emperor?
"Let me ask," Chu Xiu said.

……

Meanwhile, in the Grand Marshal's Mansion in the Imperial City, Lü Shengnan, having followed Lü Bu to kill rebels all day, was exhausted.

Summon the maidservant.

He had them serve him as he bathed and prepared to rest.

Just then, one of the maids serving suddenly put down her work, walked up to Lü Shengnan, and said, "Is Lü Bu's surrender to the court a sign that you are planning to join forces with Empress Dowager Wu Zetian, or is it that Lü Bu is not listening to you?"

Upon hearing this, Lü Shengnan was taken aback.

She immediately realized what was happening, and suddenly dove into the water, leaving only her head above water, and shouted angrily, "Chu Xiu, I'm taking a bath!"

Besides, could you fucking be any more hellish?
