Stick #33
Cao Cao's Perilous Escape
FairPoem
Though Cao Cao schemes with cunning art,
Zhuge Liang sees through his every part.
Behold the east wind borrowed fair,
And wooden oxen haul with care.
曹操雖有深謀計
智慧難暪諸葛侯
試看東風都可借
更能流馬木成牛
Interpretation
Despite Cao Cao's treacherous plots, he couldn't deceive Zhuge Liang. Witness how Zhuge borrowed the east wind to burn Cao's fleet and crafted wooden oxen to transport supplies. This shows treacherous schemes ultimately fail. Those who draw this sign must abandon deceitful intentions - while men may be fooled, heaven cannot. Turning to virtue transforms misfortune. Do not emulate Cao Cao's ways. This sign warns against all dishonest dealings and advises caution against villains.
