I was watching short videos and historical figures were collectively vomiting blood!

Chapter 34 Famous Scene: The Emperor of the Great Ming, Zhu Yuanzhang, Performs the Purple Gold Peak Sacrifice!

[Bullet Screen: After experiencing the fate of Wukong and the love of Zixia, one realizes that the essence of life comes in the humblest of forms. Hero? Why don’t you ask about the cost of becoming a hero? “I never imagined that after these 500 years, what I’m looking for is not her, but you.” Life’s encounters are really indescribable.]. [Bullet Screen: First laugh, then cry, then laugh again.]. [Bullet Screen: Taking off the golden hoop won’t save you, wearing it won’t let you love.]. [Bullet Screen: I guessed the beginning but couldn’t predict the ending. I cried in the theater.]. [Bullet Screen: Do you understand the ending line of “A Chinese Odyssey” – “He looks like a dog”? If you don’t understand it, then you didn’t get it.]. [Bullet Screen: That person looks like a dog, and now I feel like that person is myself.]. [Bullet Screen: “A Chinese Odyssey” is a comedy but it has made many people cry. Always missing out, life is filled with too many regrets.].

“That person looks like a dog…”

Upon seeing this, Lu You dropped the wine flask from his hands, making a loud clinking sound as it hit the ground.

“From the sea of bitterness… rises love and hate!”

“Wan’er, are you doing well now?”

Staring at the hairpin on the wall, Lu You couldn’t help but choke up, two trails of tears slowly rolling down his face.

“Yes, that dog… isn’t it me?”

…

Li Qingzhao’s beautiful eyes were filled with mist.

“The Sunset Warrior and the Zixia Fairy are together, but Sun Wukong must continue his journey to fetch the scriptures.”

“Without the golden hoop, how can I save you?”

“With the golden hoop, how can I love you?”

Li Qingzhao fell into deep silence.

“This is also a reflection of emotions, I suppose the person who wrote this play must have had a very profound emotional experience to produce such deep insights.”

…

“It seems that no matter how times change, how the world develops, human emotions remain largely unchanged,” Ying Zheng said.

As an emperor, he usually didn’t enjoy such love stories. National matters should not be confined to emotions. But he still insisted on watching it to the end, and to his surprise, he felt a deep sense of melancholy, and some frustration.

Li Si beside him said, “Your Majesty, no matter how many years pass, human nature does not change.”

…

[Bullet Screen: If you laughed so hard you had stomach cramps, showing your teeth, you have a good sense of humor.]. [Bullet Screen: If after watching “A Chinese Odyssey,” you’re still rolling on the ground laughing, then you didn’t understand anything.]. [Bullet Screen: If after watching “A Chinese Odyssey,” you suddenly realize there are tears on your face, you’ve understood the first layer of the film.]. [Bullet Screen: If after watching “A Chinese Odyssey,” you’ve laughed, cried, but then suddenly froze, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, you’ve understood the second layer.]. [Bullet Screen: If after watching “A Chinese Odyssey,” you sit there in silence, feeling lost, a deep sense of sorrow and helplessness filling you, you’ve understood the third layer.].

…

Under the bright moonlight, Su Shi was the first to break the silence with Zhang Huaimin.

“Huai Min, how many layers did you see?”

“I saw the countless modern people who cannot love, gain or lose, like trying to catch both the bear’s paw and the fish. You can’t have both.”

“According to the bullet screen, I thought you were at the third layer, but it turns out you are at the fifth.”

Huai Min laughed.

“What about you, what layer did you see?”

Su Shi said nothing, but felt a sense of sadness in his heart, unable to express the loneliness.

The third layer is enough!

“When will we sit together by the window again, reminiscing about the rain on Ba Mountain? Will Sun Wukong and Zixia ever meet again?” Li Shangyin asked.

Nalan Xingde also sighed deeply.

“Death and separation are too cruel for Sun Wukong.”

Meanwhile, Wu Cheng’en was full of question marks.

“The Sun Wukong I wrote is so tragic? No, I have to arrange a Zixia to follow the team to fetch the scriptures, it’s too heartbreaking! I must give them a happy ending!”

Guan Hanqing was also deep in thought.

“This kind of work can bring emotional reflection. It seems absurd, but it is deeply meaningful.”

Dong Zhongshu suddenly had an epiphany. “Perhaps I should write a ‘comedy’ too!”

…

In the real world, the movie ended, and Lin Ming and Gao Yi were walking out of the cinema, when they unexpectedly bumped into Mu Qianqian and Zhi Mengmeng, who were also getting up to leave.

Lin Ming immediately quickened his pace, hurriedly leaving, but not expecting that in his rush, a pack of tissues fell from his pocket and landed on Mu Qianqian’s seat.

Mu Qianqian looked at Lin Ming’s retreating figure as he went down the stairs and bit her cherry lips.

“Mengmeng, did you see? Lin Ming is just pretending, he bought tickets for the same hall as me. After seeing me cry, he still felt sorry for me and left a pack of tissues.”

Zhi Mengmeng: “…”

She thought to herself, Lin Ming, oh Lin Ming, you really are too miserable.

Not far away, Lin Ming stumbled and almost fell, but luckily, Gao Yi caught him.

“Old Lin, you’re really something, using ‘pulling back to strike’ and ‘mixed tactics,’ aren’t you playing the class flower perfectly? Come on, tell me, did you get some expert guidance?”

Lin Ming was full of black lines.

After exiting the cinema, he found a fruit tea stall, bought a cup of fruit tea, took out his phone, and continued scrolling through short videos. After all, while others watch short videos to kill time, he was actually making money from it.

[Famous Scene: The Emperor of the Great Ming, Zhu Yuanzhang, Performs the Purple Gold Peak Sacrifice!].

At the towering Purple Gold Mountain peak, a man dressed in a golden robe, like a cloud-covered throne, ascended the steps, his eyes like the great sun’s golden lamp, surveying the rivers and mountains,

“Destiny belongs to me, I establish the Yuan Hongwu!”

These eight words echoed from his mouth, as if they could shake the heavens, the rivers and mountains trembled, as if bowing to the king!

…

In the end of the Yuan Dynasty, with warlords and frequent conflicts. Guo Zixing was the leader of the Red Turban Army in the Jianghuai region. At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang was but a small figure in this chaotic world, following Guo Zixing into battle, achieving great military feats, and even winning the favor of Guo Zixing’s adopted daughter, Ma Xiuying, becoming Guo Zixing’s son-in-law, gaining great power and rising like a phoenix, which caused Guo Zixing’s sons,

Guo Tianxu and Guo Tianjue, to increasingly despise Zhu Yuanzhang, and they kept causing trouble for him. Eventually, they made Guo Zixing suspicious of Zhu Yuanzhang, and imprisoned him, withholding food and water.

On a moonless, windy night, a delicate figure struggled to climb over the wall, revealing a beautiful yet stubborn face, she climbed over again and jumped into the yard, arriving at the window.

“Zhong Ba! Zhong Ba!”

“I’m here to bring you food!”

Starving and weak, Zhu Yuanzhang climbed to the window.

“Sister, what are you doing here, leave quickly!”

At this moment, suddenly, dozens of torches were raised high, turning the yard into daylight. Guo Tianxu and Guo Tianjue stepped out from the shadows. The flickering torchlight reflected their ruthless faces.

“Ma Xiuying, you traitor! How dare you bring food to this rebel!”

Guo Tianxu snorted coldly, then continued. “You’re just an adopted daughter, why do you think you’re so important?”

“Zhong Ba is my man. I’m bringing him food, what does it have to do with being adopted or a real daughter?”

Ma Xiuying was unafraid, though her figure was delicate, her spirit was fierce.

Guo Tianjue sneered.

“Zhu Zhongba is ungrateful, trying to seize my father’s power. Damn it, we’re here to send him to the King of Hell today. If you don’t want to die, get out of the way!”

A trace of panic flashed across Ma Xiuying’s face, but she remained determined, blocking the door with her hands.

“If you want to kill Zhong Ba, you must first step over my body!”

Inside the house, Zhu Yuanzhang quickly said, “Sister, go quickly, don’t be foolish!”

Ma Xiuying spoke resolutely, “Zhong Ba, in life, I am yours; in death, I will be your ghost!”

“Fine, then we’ll say you died for love. Your father won’t say anything.”

Guo Tianxu and Guo Tianjue, with more than ten black-clad men, slowly closed in, their murderous intent overwhelming, shaking the clouds in the sky!

At this moment, the sky suddenly thundered, like the sound of splitting gold and stone, purging the heavens and the earth.

[Famous Scene: The Emperor of the Great Ming, Zhu Yuanzhang, Performs the Purple Gold Peak Sacrifice!]. [Minister Zhu Yuanzhang bows to the heavens, the sun, moon, mountains, rivers, and the tombs of the emperors: since the Song Dynasty ended, the celestial mandate has entered the Central Plains for over a hundred years, but now it ends. I, the minister, follow the celestial mandate and the people’s will, driving away the annual calamities, unifying the north and south, and on the 14th of the first month, I offer a sacrifice at the top of Purple Gold Mountain to announce to the heavens and the earth, and to the emperors of the past, that the country of Great Ming is established, with the era of Hongwu beginning!].

As the video played, suddenly, a golden light fell from the sky, like a planet, crashing into the room where Zhu Yuanzhang was. Inside, Zhu Yuanzhang’s robe flared up as if blown by a wind machine, and a qi of nine dragons rose from his head, lifting the roof, soaring into the sky, nine golden dragons took shape, flying in the night sky, circling each other, causing fear among the people within a hundred miles, while all the beasts kneeled and all the trees bowed!

Guo Tianxu: “?”

Guo Tianjue: “?”
