It's a beginning that's as bland as the ending.

A barren mountain, there is an immortal, and he has accepted three lay disciples to cultivate.

In this world where ordinary cultivators are regarded as masters by the common people, the existence of immortals is out of reach, and the three apprentices naturally respect and worship their masters very much, believing that serving by the side of immortals is supreme, even if they abandon their families and thunder in the sky, it is incomparable glory.

However, one day, a thunderbolt really fell from the sky.

It was a clear, quiet, cloudless summer night. The moonlight was softly sprinkled on the water, and there was a very cool night breeze that made the cicadas on both sides of the river chirp endlessly, and when the four masters and apprentices were boating on the Jiangzhu, the immortal standing on the bow of the boat suddenly told them that they had left the school and could go home. So, where do they go next and do it?

The three disciples were shocked, confused, and confused. But they remained silent, because the immortal's words could not be changed, and the decision he made had not yet been shaken.

After a long time, the senior brother took the lead and said, "I want to go to the east." ”

To the east of the barren mountain is the location of the capital of the ancient Shu Kingdom, since ancient times, countless dynasties have risen from there and declined from there. If you want to be the emperor, you must remove the current monarch of the ancient Shu State from the throne.

The immortal nodded after hearing this, and there was a hint of approval in his eyes when he looked at the big apprentice.

When the second apprentice saw that his senior brother had expressed his ambitions, he thought for a while and said, "Then I will also go with my senior brother." "To overthrow the current emperor, the strength of the senior brother alone is not enough.

The immortal finally turned to his youngest, and most playful, little apprentice.

As the youngest disciple, he raised his head, and even if he looked at the strongest person in this world, his young and immature eyes still did not show a trace of fear and cringe. His eyes were full of the brightness and brilliance of a newborn calf who was not afraid of a tiger.

He smiled, opened his arms like a bird, and exhaled his wish to heaven and earth in a loud voice: "I want to travel all over the world!" ”

He waited for a long time, but did not get a response from his master and brothers.

So he looked at the stunned senior brothers, the silent master, scratched his head and said, "Is there any problem?" ”

As for what evaluation the immortal gave to the little apprentice in the end, it was not written into the book by the historian.

However, it is worth mentioning that the eldest brother who dreamed of becoming an emperor finally became the founding emperor of Nanling Kingdom, and there were even many famous female emperors among his descendants. And his second junior brother assisted him to succeed in ascending the throne, silently taught Taoism in a Taoist temple, and the royal disciples would go to the Taoist temple every year to practice Taoism, and called him "Baiyun Daoren", and that Taoist temple was also given the name of "Baiyun Temple".

Time flies like a white horse, fleeting. After becoming the emperor, the elder brother stopped practicing the Dao, and his appearance and heart became aging day by day. After he passed the throne to his most favored son, he found a side hall to live in, and never cared about the government again.

However, the old eunuch who brought food to the Emperor occasionally encountered the old emperor's shrunken figure, hiding on the cold and luxurious dragon chair with his back to the person. His gaze remained fixed on the mirage drawn by a court painter on the wall, as if searching for something.

Two hundred years after the founding of Nanling, an empress appeared and shocked the vassal states of the Quartet.

And on Fangcun Mountain outside Xuanhua, the national capital of Nanling, after the beautiful woman in blue learned about it through the flying pigeon, she only turned the yellowed page of the scroll with an indifferent expression, and continued to push the cradle next to her and hummed a small song.

The weather outside the window of the chalet was just right, the wind was beautiful, and after a new rain, many green grasses sprouted. A white deer in the yard raised its head and was munching on grass, and a pair of eyes flashed a hint of surprise at the cabin.

And in the cabin, listening to the lullaby of the woman in blue, the little baby opened his eyes, and the immaculate eyes that should have been innocent and curious were full of confusion and worry.
