[Three Kingdoms transmigration + Cao Cao as protagonist + Hua Tuo’s brain surgery + Rejuvenation and immortality + Political intrigue and the struggle for supremacy]
In the thirteenth year of Jian’an, Cao Cao’s head ailment flares up. Hua Tuo offers to operate on his skull, but Cao Cao suspects him of plotting to kill the Chancellor and is about to have him dragged away for execution.
Just then, a soul from two thousand years in the future opens its eyes.
He has transmigrated into Cao Cao and awakened the “Wei Wu Guide to Health.” By saving lives and changing the fated deaths in history, he can accumulate the life force of Heaven’s Mandate, cure old ailments, extend his lifespan, and even regain his youth!
So, faced with brain surgery that has only a thirty percent chance of success, Cao Cao sends the generals away and says just one thing:
“I’ll let him operate.”
Protecting Hua Tuo, saving Cao Chong, improving military camp hygiene, reforming the army’s medical system...
While the Sun-Liu alliance is still planning to burn Red Cliffs, Cao Cao has already decided he won’t gamble the lives of 830,000 soldiers on a single great fire.
His white hair turns black, and his old ailments disappear. He changes fate at Red Cliffs, then sweeps across the world.
Years later, Zhuge Liang gazes at Cao Cao, who looks younger than he does, and for the first time begins to doubt Heaven’s Mandate.
“Chancellor, just how long can you live?”
Cao Cao stands with his hands behind his back, gazes out across the vast land, and smiles faintly.
“I’d like to know that myself.”
Okay, okay, the plot is compact, no frivolous words, no watery words, no bells and whistles, no showboating, no nagging, no grinding, I enjoyed watching it 🙂
