Since the burial of Guan Yu, Cao Cao stayed in Luoyang, neither returning to the Xuchang court nor the fiefdom of Wei, and handing over all the military and national affairs to the crown prince Cao Pi.

Cao Cao won two birds with one stone. The first is to train Cao Pi and gradually hand over the power to him; the second is to wait here for Liu Bei and Sun Quan to go to war and watch the tiger fight.

According to the results of the war between the two sides, it is very convenient to send troops from Luoyang to Jingzhou. You can fight any one you want and take the initiative in the war.

At the beginning, the battle between Sun and Liu, which was very much anticipated, was about to begin, and Cao Cao was able to support him.

But as time went by, Sun and Liu were silent, just like Guan Yu's defeat did not happen, Cao Cao was also a little impatient.

According to the news from the spies, Liu Bei seemed to have discovered something. He assembled heavy troops in Yong'an, but did not send troops to attack Sun Quan, and Cao Cao's plan failed.

The loss in his heart and the fatigue in his body gradually became unsustainable.

He has endless nightmares every night, and his head storms are getting more and more frequent, and he often dreams of the terrible things he was young.

Cao Cao was very frightened and asked the officials, and some people said:

"Dong Zhuo harmed many people back then, and the old palace was so evil that he could build a new palace to live in."

Cao Cao decided to build a new palace and asked the officials:

"I want to build a new palace, called Jianshi Palace, and I hate to have no good deeds."

Jia Xu was a subordinate of Dong Zhuo in Luoyang. He once built a palace for Dong Zhuo. He was familiar with local craftsmen and told Cao Cao: "There is a man named Su Yue in Luoyang who has excellent construction skills and the most ingenious ideas. The king can summon him to preside over the construction."

Cao Cao summoned Su Yue to come and asked him to draw a picture of the palace.

Su Yue painted it into nine main halls, with complete front and back corridors, pavilions and pavilions, presented to Cao Cao.

After reading it, Cao Cao was very satisfied and said:

"Your paintings are very consistent with your own will, but you may not have the material of pillars."

As a craftsman, Su Yue was very careful about the talents of the pillars and said to Cao Cao:

"This place is thirty miles away from the city, and there is a pool called Yuelong Pond; there is a temple in front of it, called Yuelong Temple. There is a large pear tree next to the temple, which is more than ten feet high, which can be used as the beam of Jianshi Hall."

Cao Cao was overjoyed and personally led hundreds of cavalry to dismount at the Yuelong Temple. He looked up at the tree, which was as pavilion as a canopy, invading the clouds and the Han Dynasty, without any chorus.

Cao Cao ordered the workers to cut down immediately, and several fellow villagers came to persuade him:

"This tree has been around for hundreds of years, and there are often gods and people on it, and I am afraid it will not be cut."

Although Cao Cao believed in the will of heaven, he did not believe in these heresy and said furiously:

"I have traveled all over the world for more than forty years, from the emperor to the common people, I am afraid of the lonely; what kind of demon is it that dares to disobey the will of the lonely!" The craftsmen ordered to cut down.

When he returned to the palace, Cao Cao was sleeping uneasy that night, and sat in the hall, hiding in a few minutes, and dreaming that a tree god came to ask for his life.

After Cao Cao suddenly woke up, his mind was in a state of unbearable pain. He urgently sent an order to ask for treatment from a good doctor, but the treatment effect was not good. Cao Cao had a bad temper and all the officials were worried.

Hua Xin thought of the genius doctor Hua Tuo, and said to Cao Cao:

"Does the king know that there is a miraculous doctor Warren?"

Cao Cao: "Are you talking about the doctor who treats Zhou Tai in Jiangdong?"

Hua Xin said: "That's right."

Cao Cao has been eager for talent for so many years, and he knows that many people don’t deserve their reputation. He didn’t have much hope for Hua Xin to recommend the rumored Hua Tuo, so he replied:

"Although I heard about his reputation, I don't know if I have any real skills!"

Hua Xin thought about it and said that Mingzhebao was better. He did not answer Cao Cao with certainty, but answered tactfully:

"It is said that Hua Tuo's name is Yuanhua, and he was from Qiao County, Pei State. The wonderfulness of his medical skills is rare in the world. However, there are patients who may use medicine, needles, or moxibustion to cure it at will. If they suffer from diseases of the internal organs and the medicine cannot be effective, take Mafei San with wine, which will make the patient feel like he died of drunkenness. However, he used a sharp knife to cut open his abdomen and washed his internal organs with medicine soup. The patient had no pain. After washing, he would sew the mouth with the medicine thread and apply it to it. It would be smoothed out in one month or twenty days. It was so wonderful! One day, Tuo walked on the road and heard a person's moaning. Tuo said: This is a disease that cannot be eaten. Asked, Tuo ordered to drink three liters of garlic juice, spit out a snake, and grow two or three feet long, and then the diet would be lowered. Chen Deng, the prefect of Guangling, was upset and had a red face. He could not drink it.

When eating, I asked Tuo to treat it. Tuo drank it with medicine and vomited insects for three liters, all of which were red in the head and shaking tail. Deng asked about the reason, Tuo said: Because of eating fish too much, it has this poison. Although it is possible today, it will definitely be restored in three years, and it cannot be saved. Later, Chen Dengguo died three years later. Another man had a tumor between his eyebrows, and it was itchy, so he asked Tuo to look at it. Tuo said: There are flying objects inside. Everyone laughed at it. Tuo cut it with a knife, and a yellow bird flew away, and the disease was cured. A dog bit his feet and two pieces of flesh, one was painful and one itchy, and itchy, and it was unbearable. Tuo said: There are ten needles inside, and the itchy one was in the middle. People don’t believe it. Tuo cut it with a knife, and the fruit responded to his words. This person is really Bian Que, a Cang Gong, and now lives in Jincheng, not far from this, why don’t the king summon him?"

Cao Cao was so magical when he heard what Hua Xin said, and he became more interested. He sent someone to ask Hua Tuo to come in at night to diagnose the pulse and diagnose the disease.

After Hua Tuo finished his diagnosis and treatment, he said to Cao Cao:

"The king's brain pain arises because of wind. The root of the disease is in his head. Wind saliva cannot be released. If you take decoction in vain, it cannot be treated. There is a method: first drink Mafei San, then use a sharp axe to cut open the head and take out the wind saliva to remove the root."

When Cao Cao heard that he wanted to split his head, this was a beheading operation! He said furiously:

"Are you trying to kill me?"

Hua Tuo was jumped and said quickly:

"Hearing that I'm treating Guan Yu? General Guan was poisoned by an arrow and injured his right arm. He scraped his bones to treat the poison. Guan Gong was not afraid of it. Now, the King Xiaoke's illness is so skeptical?"

Of course, Cao Cao heard about this and replied:

"You can scratch your arms if you hurt, and you can cut your head open? You must be close to Guan Yu. Do you want to take this opportunity to avenge him?"

Without waiting for Hua Tuo to defend himself, Cao Cao ordered his left and right to be imprisoned and tortured him.

Jia Xu said:

"A good doctor is rare in the world and cannot be abandoned."

Cao Cao said:

"This person wants to take the opportunity to harm me, which is no different from Ji Ping!" He still ordered to chase and torture him urgently.

Hua Tuo was in prison, and there was a prisoner named Wu, who was called "Wu Guanzhu".

This man has long heard of Hua Tuo's name and worshipped Hua Tuo with wine and food every day, so that he did not suffer in prison.

Hua Tuo was very grateful and said to him:

"I am about to die now, and I hate that the Qingnang Shu has not been passed down to the world. I am grateful to the public for his kindness and cannot repay him. If I am writing a book, the public can send someone to my family and take the Qingnang Shu to give it to the public for his successor to my skills."

Wu Ai Zhuo was overjoyed and replied:

"If I get this book, I will abandon this battle and treat all patients in the world to pass on my virtues." Hua Tuo immediately compiled the book and handed over to Wu to imprison him.

Wu Aizhu found a reason, went to Jincheng in person, went to Hua Tuo's house, and asked Hua Tuo's wife about taking the "Qingnang Shu" based on the letter. When he returned to prison, he handed it over to Hua Tuo for inspection, Hua Tuo presented the book to Wu Aizhu on the spot.

After Wu Aizhuo obtained the book, he took it home to collect it and continued to take care of Hua Tuo in prison.

In less than a month, Hua Tuo died in prison without any illness.

Wu's imprisonment received the inheritance of Hua Tuo, which was equivalent to his disciples. In the Han Dynasty, when he respected his teachers and respected the Tao, he naturally had to express his disciples' filial piety.

After buying a coffin and burying, he resigned and went home. He wanted to get the "Qingnang Shu" to study, but he happened to see his wife burning the book.

Wu Ai was shocked and quickly snatched the whole volume, and the whole volume had been burned, leaving only two pages.

Wu Aizhuo scolded his wife angrily, and the chess piece defended:

"Even if you learn as magic as Hua Tuo, you will die in prison, what's the point of using him!"

Wu Aizhuo sighed and stopped, so the "Qingnang Shu" has never been passed down to the world. The remaining two pages just recorded small techniques such as castration chickens and pigs, and were passed down to the world.
