Chapter 51: Auspicious Origin
"Brother, brother!"

Zhang Fei rushed into the tent hurriedly, waving the silk book.

Liu Bei had just returned from the military training ground. He was sweating profusely, and even the clothes under his armor were soaked with sweat. After all, as a general, he had to lead by example. He looked at the impatient Zhang Fei, and even though he was out of breath, he couldn't help but say, "Third brother, you are a county lieutenant, you are too impatient! You should be calm when encountering things."

"Brother, you are right." Zhang Fei did not refute, "But Mr. Mi wrote to say that he has met Prime Minister Zhuge."

Before Zhang Fei had finished his words, Liu Bei's eyes suddenly lit up, like a hungry tiger seeing two injured goats. He ignored his physical fatigue for a moment and pounced forward to snatch the silk book from Zhang Fei's hand.

Zhang Fei laughed and said, "Brother, you are still criticizing me. You are too impatient!"

Liu Bei ignored Zhang Fei. He was completely focused on Mi Zhu's letter. When he learned that his future prime minister was doing well, he felt relieved. However, when he read about the health condition of the prime minister's father, his brows knitted again and he muttered to himself, "The condition of the prime minister's father is not optimistic at the moment."

Liu Bei acted decisively, looked up at Zhang Fei, and ordered: "Third brother, you have to leave now, go find the divine doctor Hua as soon as possible, and make sure to save the life of the Prime Minister's father."

Zhang Fei clasped his fists and said solemnly, "Yes."

Then Zhang Fei couldn't help being curious, so he asked directly: "Brother, I have one thing I don't understand. The Prime Minister is so powerful, why don't you ask Mr. Mi to invite him? I see that Mr. Mi and the Prime Minister are both like Xianhe, and can dream about our filming. It would be better to give Director Zhen's book to the Prime Minister."

Liu Bei casually picked up the scabbard and gently patted Zhang Fei on the head, "The Prime Minister is young, do you want to tire him to death?"

Zhang Fei lowered his head
Liu Bei sighed, "I just want the Prime Minister to have no regrets in his childhood, and the feeling of losing his father."

Liu Bei closed his eyes, "I don't want the Prime Minister to go through this again."

"."

Zhang Fei remained silent, turned around and left.

Liu Bei called Zhang Fei, "Third brother, wait a minute."

Zhang Fei stopped walking when he heard this and asked, "Brother, is there anything else?"

"Your clothes are dirty, let me help you dust them." Liu Bei said.

Zhang Fei nodded, "Yeah."

Liu Bei gently brushed the dust off Zhang Fei and said, "Third brother, take good care of yourself when you are alone outside. Control your temper, but don't let yourself be wronged. Remember to write to me."

Liu Bei talked a lot, but Zhang Fei did not show any annoyance. He listened patiently and said, "Brother, I remember everything. I will leave now."

"Go," Liu Bei said, imitating the people of later generations: "Have a safe journey and return safely."

"Ah."

Zhang Fei nodded heavily, walked out of the tent, and ran into Guan Yu head-on.

Guan Yu asked, "Third brother, what are you doing?"

Zhang Fei said: "Find Hua Tuo and save Zhuge Jun Gong!"

Guan Yu stroked his long beard, feeling that his third brother was a bit strange today. He didn't think much about it, walked into the tent, clasped his fists and shouted to Liu Bei, who was sitting in his seat, "Big Brother!"

Liu Bei immediately stood up and asked, "Yun Chang, what is this?"

Guan Yu explained, "I came here specially to say goodbye to you, brother. Recently, through letters, I learned the whereabouts of Xu Huang and Zhang Liao from Mr. Mi."

Liu Bei instantly understood what Guan Yu meant. Xu Huang and Zhang Liao were the five best generals under Cao Cao. Xu Huang defeated Guan Yu in the Battle of Xiangfan, and Zhang Liao led 800 light cavalry to charge into Sun Quan's central army.

Although they were in the enemy camp, Liu Bei still admired this brave general and looked down upon Sun Quan. Even if they could not capture Hefei with 100,000 men, they would not be beaten into a panic by 800 men, right? Even if they were tied to a dog, they would fight better than Sun Quan.

Fortunately, both of them were minor officials at that time.

After thinking it over, Liu Bei looked at Guan Yu, straightened his clothes, and said, "Brother, I know you are always calm and stable. I am most confident in you. However, the journey is long, so you must be careful."

"Brother, please rest assured." Guan Yu said, "I will definitely put my own safety first!"

"According to what Mr. Mi said, Divine Doctor Hua should be at home. Why is there no one at home?"

Zhang Fei rushed to Qiao County, Pei State, and stood outside Hua Tuo's house. He found that the gatehouse was closed and the front of the house was overgrown with weeds.

Zhang Fei wondered if the news was wrong.

Suddenly he saw an old man walking briskly, carrying a bundle of firewood on his back.

I rubbed my eyes again and looked at his appearance clearly. He had white hair and a youthful face, and he looked full of energy and spirit. He was exactly the same as the old immortal described by people in the fairyland of later generations!
Zhang Fei rushed forward with excitement and bowed, "Excuse me, old sir, are you the genius doctor Hua Tuo?"

"Miracle Doctor Hua?"

The old man looked at Zhang Fei and said leisurely, "From the way you are dressed, I don't think you are an ordinary person. Are you here to ask Yuan Hua to heal your illness again?"

After saying this the old man raised a finger.

"?"

Zhang Fei didn't understand what the old man was up to.

The old man said, "It will cost 1000 coins."

When the old man said this, it seemed to trigger a switch in Zhang Fei's mind.

Zhang Fei slapped his thigh and said, "Hey, I thought it was a big deal. I have quite a lot of money!"

Zhang Fei suddenly realized, "Wait, so, old man, you are not the legendary doctor Hua Tuo?"

"Of course not." The old man placed the firewood in front of Hua Tuo's door.

Zhang Fei asked: "What are you doing?"

The old man smiled and explained, "Yuanhua is returning home today, so I went to get some firewood."

"You collect wood?"

Zhang Fei looked at the old man's appearance. Although he looked energetic, he looked to be over 60 years old, right?

"Young man." The old man asked with a smile: "Can you guess how old I am this year?"

Zhang Fei asked tentatively: "Sixty?"

The old man shook his head, "Not enough."

What? ? ?
Zhang Fei was shocked, "Seventy-seven?!"

The old man sighed, "I am already in my eighties."

? !!

Eight, nine, nine, ten? !!!
Zhang Fei's pupils shrank to the size of a pinhole. The Han dynasty ruled the country with filial piety, and an old man who lived to be over 80 could be said to be a sign of good fortune. Even officials had to salute him, not to mention that this sign in front of him was carrying a load of firewood without even breathing hard.
How on earth is this done???
Zhang Fei couldn't help but be curious, but he didn't forget to salute again. He asked, "I wonder why you are still so agile at this age?"

The old man sighed, "This is all relying on Yuanhua."

"Oh?"

Zhang Fei was alert and listened carefully to the old man's next words.
"I remember that year I was still young, no more than sixty years old, and Yuan Hua taught me a set of boxing techniques that can nourish the body and replenish qi."

"It's called the Five Animal Exercises."
