A Dream of Spring and Autumn (Part I)

The "distinguished guest" stared at the little Taoist priest tightly.

The little Taoist priest was a little frightened, but he quickly looked straight over.

There was a ray of golden light in the Holy Emperor's gaze, like the first ray of light when the heavens and the earth first opened.

However, the little Taoist's gaze was extremely profound, and a pair of eyes seemed to contain the entire starry sky.

At this time, it is entering the twilight of spring and approaching Qingming.

It is the spring rain that rustles the bamboo leaves, the fragrance of the earth in the valley is heard, and there are a few birds chirping in the bamboo forest.

But when the Holy Emperor and the little Taoist priest looked at each other, all this seemed to have become a forbidden "Bamboo Rain Map in the Hidden Valley".

On the eaves of the bamboo house, the raindrops were about to fall, and its body slowly grew larger, but it could not fall at all, and the raindrops in the air, they all stopped in the air.

The bird wanted to fly over the bamboo forest, but it only spread its wings in the air, paused in the air, and became part of the picture.

Even the smoke rising from the incense burner did not disperse, and the stream outside the bamboo forest stopped. This look seems to have become eternal, and it seems to be a simple look.

A muffled snort came, and the little Taoist priest took two steps back.

In an instant, the stream seemed to thaw from winter, and the sound of flowing water sounded, and the birds were stunned, and after falling into the air for some distance, they realized that they were about to sweep on the tip of another bamboo, and immediately fluttered their wings vigorously, and finally drew an arc in the air and stood on the tip of the bamboo.

The drops of water from the eaves finally fell, falling into the red clay jar placed on the ground, causing ripples.

The little Taoist priest wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and the Holy Emperor suddenly smiled.

"Little Taoist, what's your name?"

"Daoyi," the little Taoist priest replied honestly.

The Holy Emperor glanced at him again before replying, "What a big name." ”

The little Taoist priest smiled, there was a shallow pear vortex on his cheeks, revealing his white teeth, scratching his head and saying, "And my surname is Li." ”

The Holy Emperor was stunned for a moment, then gently stroked his palm and said, "Li Daoyi, not bad, not bad." He bowed slightly, and he didn't know if he was saying a good name or a good person.

"How old are you, little Daoist?" the Holy Emperor then asked.

Li Dao thought about it, stretched out ten fingers and counted slowly, looking very serious, with a faint light on his face.

"According to the current parlance, I should be the year of dancing elephants (15-20 years old). ”

The Holy Emperor looked at the little Taoist priest and suddenly sneered: "If you become a child, you will become a child, and what do you say about the year of dancing elephants." Do you have little arms and legs, do you dance?"

The little Taoist priest blushed, and then said: "Although the attack power of our vein is not high, we have thick skin!"

He straightened his face, looked at the Holy Emperor unconvinced, and said, "My cheap master said that the two most important things for us fortune tellers are to be able to run and be durable. ”

The Holy Emperor seemed to have forgotten the purpose of coming, and was aroused, and asked, "Oh, little Taoist, you should tell me." ”

Li Daoyi said proudly: "You often say that in the midst of strategizing, the decisive victory is thousands of miles away. This is probably the most powerful of the foreknowledge you think, but I tell you, it is not foreknowledge to strategize and win a thousand miles. The real foreknowledge is 500 years of spring and autumn in advance, and 300 years in the future. Heaven and earth, omniscience, this is foreknowledge!"

"And often, we see through the world and the number of fate, but some people are unwilling to accept it. They can't help fate, and they will blame our fortune teller crow's mouth, so ah, we have to be able to be beaten and escape!"

As he spoke, the little Taoist priest raised his head and said proudly: "If you are beaten, you should know my ability just now, do you want to know my ability to escape?"

A sly flash flashed in his eyes.

The Holy Emperor smiled slightly, stopped in front of him and said, "I don't want to." ”

Li Daoyi was a little deflated.

"You said that you knew the Spring and Autumn Period for 500 years, and the Dawn Years for 300 years. Are you talking about how many years of happiness my Xuanyuan family can have in the world?"

The Holy Emperor looked at Li Dao and smiled.

Li Daoyi suddenly became alert, like a prey staring at a predator.

"I don't know!"

The Holy Emperor immediately said with disdain: "Just now you still said that you knew the spring and autumn period before, and the years after you. Why, Tianji Pavilion has also learned to deceive the world and steal its name?"

The little Taoist priest was a little unconvinced, so he wanted to open his mouth, but thinking of the strength of the Holy Emperor just now, he immediately closed his mouth tightly.

The Holy Emperor smiled slightly: "You little Taoist priest, there is something interesting. As he spoke, he popped a copper coin out of his hand again.

Li Dao grabbed the copper coin one by one, grabbed the copper coin from the air, he carefully identified it, and saw a small "Xu" character on the copper coin.

"Why is this copper coin with you?"

The Holy Emperor smiled slightly and said, "How did you come here, you don't care, anyway, don't you Tianji Pavilion only recognize copper coins and not people?"

Li Dao nodded, wrapped the copper coin in a piece of brocade and put it in his arms.

When the Holy Emperor saw this thing, he frowned slightly, the copper coin that just belonged to him, the little Taoist priest took it back casually, but he solemnly put it away.

The Holy Emperor watched Li Daoyi put away the copper coins and remembered that afternoon back then.

As the leader of the rebel army, he pretended to be an ordinary person and met the white-clothed swordsman.

The encounter between the two of them was vulgar and ordinary, so ordinary that even the Holy Emperor himself couldn't remember it.

It should be that the two of them saw the woman being bullied and attacked at the same time, and since then they sympathized with each other, or the two of them beat up those former officials who were powerful at the same time.

Anyway, along the way, they didn't know how many of these kinds of things they did, and even he couldn't remember it clearly.

But he clearly remembered that the two of them were stopped by an old Taoist priest.

The old Taoist priest had some skills, and he was straightforward, and he said that the people around him were obedient, and he became interested, so he had to pull the white-clothed swordsman inside.

In the end, the old Taoist priest glanced at the two of them and left him a message.

When it was getting late, he pulled the white-clothed swordsman and waited for the old Taoist.

On the muddy road, the old Taoist priest walked over with a banner of "straight iron mouth", a broken box, and a tattered Taoist robe and straw sandals.

The old Taoist priest glanced at him, and then said directly to the white-clothed swordsman: "I know that Mr. Xu has always been unaccustomed to us, but everything in the world is born from cause and destroyed by effect. When we see cause and effect, we can know the future, and we are not fooling the public with false words. ”

The white-clothed swordsman ignored him.

"I know why Mr. went out of the mountain, Mr. said that he didn't believe in fate, but he still found someone with great luck, why is this?"

The white-clothed swordsman looked at his companion and was stunned for a moment.

"Tell me, then, is he the person I'm looking for?"

The old Taoist priest smiled and said, "If he becomes the co-master of the world, Mr. can be stable for a hundred years." ”

The white-clothed swordsman stared at the old Taoist.

"What if it's anyone else?"

"In less than thirty years. ”

His eyes were like sparks, and the old Taoist priest only glanced at those eyes, and then took two steps back.

"I believe you once. The white-clothed swordsman said slowly.

With that, he turned and left.

He didn't understand it before he became a Holy Emperor, but he knew that he had to pursue his companions.

The old Taoist priest shouted from behind: "Fifty years later, you can go down to Xia Tai to solve your confusion!" As he spoke, he threw out two copper coins and fell into the palms of the two of them.

As soon as the words fell, the old Taoist priest disappeared.

The white-clothed swordsman looked at the copper coin in his hand, and suddenly asked, "If you get the world, can you do three things according to me?"

At that time, he only felt that the white-clothed swordsman and the old Taoist priest were masters, and he was born recklessly, so he must seize the opportunity.

The white-clothed swordsman stretched out his finger: "First, I don't ask you to be diligent in government and love the people, and become a Ming monarch, but you must let the people have something to eat after you can, and you can't let them rebel." ”

He thought about it and nodded vigorously, this is what he should do, his goal is not just that the people can eat.

"Second, rivers and lakes are rivers and lakes, and temples are temples. The temple has the laws of the temple, and the rivers and lakes have the rules of the rivers and lakes. You can't meddle in the rivers and lakes. ”

At that time, he didn't have any concept of this, but he still nodded.

The white-clothed swordsman stared at him tightly: "You have to remember, even if someone claims to be the emperor and a saint, if he doesn't join the Sheji, you can't meddle in the rivers and lakes!"

He nodded slowly.

The white-clothed swordsman then stretched out his third finger: "Third, don't seek immortality." I know that the method of immortality is an irresistible temptation for those who have power, and I hope you don't seek immortality, otherwise you will mislead others and yourself. ”

At that time, he was full of desire to make a good life for the common people, so he naturally agreed.

The white-clothed swordsman looked at him deeply, stopped talking, and finally stretched out his hand and said, "Introduction, my name is Xu Ningqing, and I can help you fight the world in the future." ”

He had not yet become the Holy Emperor, but when he saw the white-clothed swordsman who stretched out his hand in the sunset, he still smiled lightly.

The white-clothed swordsman turned to leave, threw out the copper coin casually, and said, "I gave it to you, maybe it will be useful to you in the future." ”

Looking at the back of the man with the long sword on his shoulder, he had a faint illusion that this was not a sunset, but a rising sun.

"Hey, Your Majesty the Holy Emperor!" a shout interrupted the Holy Emperor's memories.

Li Daoyi scratched his head, he didn't know how to shout, he saw the Holy Emperor in a daze, he didn't know how to remind him, he could only call "Hey".

The Holy Emperor's eyes froze, but they softened again in an instant.

I don't know how many years, no one dared to say "hello" to him.

When the white-clothed swordsman became a white-clothed general, he would say to him before every expedition: "Hey, I'm leaving, don't lose your base camp!"

Every time he would go out ten miles to meet the white-clothed general, a smile appeared on the corner of the Holy Emperor's mouth at the thought of this.

"What a weirdo!" Li Daoyi muttered, and then asked, "You haven't said where that copper coin came from!"

"He gave it to me. The Holy Emperor replied softly.

He thought for a while, stretched out his hand and said, "Forget it, don't ask, you hairy boy don't know anything, return me." ”

Li Daoyi's eyes widened as he looked at this rumored Saint Emperor.

"You are the Holy Emperor, the co-master of the world, how can you regret it!" Li Daoyi hugged his chest tightly like a baby.

The Holy Emperor glanced at him and said, "In his eyes, I have never been the Holy Emperor, let alone the co-master of the world. ”

Li Daoyi looked at the quibbling Holy Emperor, pouted, and said, "No, I haven't been able to get back the things I have recovered from the Tianji Pavilion!

The Holy Emperor stared at him, and Li Daoyi was a little stunned. After thinking about it, he whispered, "Why don't I give you a Birch foot in exchange?"

The Holy Emperor looked at him and did not speak.

Li Daoyi was a little anxious, and said in a low voice: "This is the most precious thing! It can give people a great chance to see the past and the future in their sleep, and sometimes it is more effective than me and my dead ghost master, do you want it!"

The Holy Emperor was a little moved, thought for a while and said, "You have to explain to me the Nine Dragons Talisman, and the answer to send me once." ”

Li Daoyi waved his hand happily and said, "Okay." But as soon as he put his hand down, he saw the Holy Emperor's hand stretched out in front of him.

Li Daoyi's eyes bulged, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, and he jumped up all of a sudden: "What are you doing? Didn't you say that you would explain the Nine Dragons Fu and send you an answer?"

The Holy Emperor narrowed his eyes, and three words popped out between his teeth.

"Birch feet. ”

The little Taoist priest stared at him, and finally lowered his head, but still relented.

I don't know where to take out a small bird leg, looking at this ordinary bird leg, the Holy Emperor was a little suspicious.

Li Daoyi immediately said: "Birch is originally a bird, you don't believe that you try it yourself, your cultivation is so high, it is impossible not to see that this thing is not a mortal thing." ”

When the Holy Emperor heard this, he secretly exerted his strength, and the mana was output, and it was completely absorbed by this bird's leg.

He was a little surprised, but he was sure that this thing was not ordinary, and nodded slowly.

Li Daoyi patted his chest and said, "That's okay." ”

"Wait!" the Holy Emperor called out to him.

"And what about the Nine Dragon Fu?"

Li Daoyi's steps out of the door suddenly stopped.

He turned around and stroked the bangs in front of his forehead before saying, "How much do you know about this Nine Dragon Fu?"

The Holy Emperor looked at him, didn't talk nonsense with him, and said directly: "You say it all!"

Li Dao glanced at the Holy Emperor, and secretly said in his heart: "What an old fox, I don't know how much he knows, it's not easy to hide if he wants to." ”

The little Taoist priest cleared his throat and said, "If you want to talk about this Nine Dragons Fu, you have to talk about this heaven and earth." ”

He poured a cup of tea for the Holy Emperor, sat down himself, and took a sip of tea, like an old gentleman telling a story.

"This heaven and earth were originally abundant in spiritual energy, and this cultivation is naturally not as normal as it is now, with a maximum of only five realms. ”

"The current realm has five realms: Tongqi, Huixi, Youye (Little Grandmaster), Pohai (Grandmaster), and Ling Dao (Great Grandmaster). But in the past, when you reach the path of Ling Dao's cultivation, you can only be considered to have entered the hall. ”

"Although it was strong before, the opponent was also strong. ”

The Holy Emperor listened carefully to the little Taoist priest's narration, like a good boy listening to his teacher's lectures.

"In the past, there was no court in this world, there was only a distinction between sects and clans, and mortals without cultivation were like ants. But later, a group of great powers who rose up from the bottom appeared, and in order to change this situation, they spent huge efforts to seal the aura of heaven and earth. ”

The little Taoist priest peeked at the Holy Emperor and found that the Holy Emperor was expressionless, so he could only continue to speak.

"There is no perfect thing in the world, and so is the seal, and the nemesis of the seal is the Nine Dragons Talisman, the Nine Dragons Talisman corresponds to nine places, if these nine places are broken with the Nine Dragons Talisman at the same time, the seal will be opened. Of course, the higher the cultivation, the stronger the enemy. ”

The Holy Emperor suddenly asked, "Then where are these nine places, and where are the Nine Dragon Talismans?"

The little Taoist priest took a sip of tea and said, "Don't worry, wait for me to speak slowly." ”

"This Nine Dragons Talisman was originally kept by the imperial courts of all generations, but when it came to the previous dynasty, I don't know why they were all lost. ”

He glanced at the Holy Emperor deeply and said, "This one has appeared in Shu Mountain, I think you already know it." The other one, in Yuedi, you also know. However, the Han family should not know, this Nine Dragon Fu does not know how many thousand years it has existed, and how long has it been for the Han family of your Holy Dynasty!"

"What about the rest?" the Holy Emperor asked in a deep voice.

"Xu Ningqing should have given you one and let you keep it for you, but you shouldn't know it yourself. ”

The Holy Emperor thought for a moment and said, "The only thing he gave me was that copper coin. ”

The little Taoist priest was stunned for a moment, and finally knew how the Holy Emperor could be like a child just now.

He could only stubbornly say: "You're looking, he had one before, he won't put that thing on himself, he must have given it to someone." ”

"Why didn't he keep it for himself?"

"If he could destroy this thing, he would have destroyed it long ago, and wouldn't it become an obvious target for himself? After the little Taoist priest finished speaking, he felt that he was speechless, and hurriedly covered his mouth and peeked at the Holy Emperor.

Fortunately, the Holy Emperor didn't pay attention, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

There was nothing to say for a long time, and I didn't know when the rain stopped outside the bamboo building.

The Holy Emperor was suddenly stunned: "Gone?"

The little Taoist priest spread his hands and said, "It's gone!"

The Holy Emperor looked at the sky, thought for a moment, took out the Birch foot he had just gotten and asked, "How do you use this thing?"

"It's simple, you just put it in your heart and sleep. ”

With a wave of the Holy Emperor's sleeves, a golden light shrouded the little Taoist Li Daoyi.

"Hey, what are you doing?" the little Taoist priest shouted.

"The Emperor has decided to borrow a treasure to try your Birch feet!" he said, a sneer tugging at the corner of his mouth, the best way to prevent being deceived is to control him and then experiment.

The Holy Emperor pressed Birch's feet close to his chest, and slowly, sleepily, came up, letting out a slight snoring sound.

He sat upright in his chair and fell asleep.

Suddenly, a blue light burrowed into the Holy Emperor's body, and Birch's feet, which had been in front of his chest, had disappeared.

The little Taoist priest stared at the Holy Emperor carefully, making sure that he was really asleep, and the purple light suddenly covered his hands, and he tore at the golden light mask, and a gap appeared in the light mask.

Li Daoyi came out of the mouth, glanced at the sleeping Holy Emperor, and said with a smile: "I knew that your old thing would not let me go easily, but fortunately, I have a back hand." ”

After saying that, he let out a smug laugh.

As soon as he smiled, he saw the Holy Emperor frowning and immediately covered his mouth.

"I also got the Dream Eater's saliva on this Birch's feet, he shouldn't wake up so soon!" the little Taoist priest glanced at the Holy Emperor, and then carefully carried the back basket, and the façade was all his belongings.

He ran out of the smoke and waited for hundreds of miles before he stopped.

Li Daoyi patted his chest and said proudly: "I told him everything, the fortune teller has the strongest ability to escape and be beaten!" After speaking, he raised his head proudly.

"By the way, Master also instructed me to find and let Xu Ningqing go overseas once, but where can I find him now!"

He thought for a moment, scratched his head, and finally had a bright light.

"I can't find him, I'll go find his son, it's all his blood anyway, maybe that method will also work!"

On the official road, a small Taoist priest walked forward with a basket on his back and his head held high.

His direction is Yuezhou City, which has just experienced a big war!
