Disclaimer: I do not own the Three Kingdoms 'cause they are history. I do own Mrs. Tan though.
Zhuge Liang was dead. So were Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. The three kingdoms period was over and the Jin dynasty had set in. What do you think had happened to the people of Wei, Shu and Wu?
They were sent into the Underworld when all of them died,
"What happened?" Zhang Fei asked. He and a whole lot of other people were in a deep chasm. They consist of: Zhao Yun, Zhang Fei, Guan Yu, Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang, Zhou Yu, Huang Gai, Cao Pi, Cao Cao, Sima Yi, and Lu Bu. So you can see that there was a lot of tears and hugging, like Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, or Cao Cao and Cao Pi.
"I think that we are in what they call the Underworld," Zhuge Liang observed, "But the thing is. We are not dead, are we?"
"You are, boneheads." A voice came from behind. A young Wei girl popped out. Her hair was tied into a bun and she donned a red costume. She looked remarkably like …
"Diao Chan?" Lu Bu gasped. The girl frowned before shaking her head. "I am most definitely not my mother. My name is Diao Li. I think that you people are impossible. Even Dong Zhuo mistook me fore her and almost raped me. And in case you are wondering," She pointed at Lu Bu, "I am not your daughter, okay? Anyway, back to the question, yes we are all dead; the three kingdoms era is over thanks to the Sima family. His relations are now the ruling family. Oh, and did I forget to mention he took over Wei first?"
Cao Cao glared at his former general and started beating him up. Then Zhou Yu decided to have a fight with Zhuge Liang (Poor guy, he does not even know how to fight!) Cao Pi joined Cao Cao and Lu Bu was chasing Diao Li all over the place, screaming something. It was utter chaos before Liu Bei shouted that they should stop. "If we are dead, why should we even fight? It's not like we could die again!" he exclaimed. They stopped fighting as they knew that Liu Bei had a point.
"So, what should we do?" Zhou Yu asked, "There are no signs."
"Err… Gongjin, there are. Look!" Huang Gai prodded a wooden sign. It read: Bridge to another life, 500 li away. "That would take us three days!" he grumbled. Diao Li smirked
"We can try another way. First, concentrate your energy. Then, jump," they did as she said and appeared in front of the Bridge. To their surprise, Diao Li gave them sponges, except Sima Yi.
"That old lady gives the soup that makes souls forget their memories. If you want to have your memories, take these and tie them under your chin. If not, give them back to me. Sima Yi did not have a sponge because the underworld king wants to see him." Liu Bei, Zhang Fei, Guan Yu, Zhuge Liang and Zhao Yun opted to forget their memories. Zhou Yu, Sun Quan, Huang Gai, Lu Su, Pang Tong, Cao Cao handed back the sponges. Lu Bu tied the sponge onto his chin. They joined the queue and were soon attended to by the old lady. Their faces went blank as they drank the soup she gave to them. Lu Bu took special care to make the soup drip into the sponge. He was however caught by the guards and was sent away to the seventh level.
"Idiot, he should have minded the guards. Sima Yi, it's this way." As she turned around, Sima Yi caught sight of a dropper in her hand. Before he could say anything, Diao Li had whisked him into a corner.
"It's a chemical I invented when I was traveling in the 17th level. When it is triggered, the soul would remember its former life and memories. I had put it into the soup because I think they should have their memories even though they don't want to. Don't tell anyone, or else you would be tortured by me, okay?" She warned. Sima Yi gulped before nodding. Diao Li smirked before pulling his arm and leading him away.
