Tuoba Tao's first expedition was when he was 12 years old, fighting against Rouran.

Time flies, when it was a sensation in the palace, no one mentioned the incident of Tuoba Tao's encounter with a fairy, and few people knew that Tuoba Tao moved the yellow bamboo statue in the shrine to his bedroom.

Sometimes, even Tuoba Tao almost thought that it was just a dream of his childhood.

On the eve of departure, Tuoba Tao worshiped his mother.

A few months ago, Du Guipin died of illness.

Tuoba Tao thought about forgetting his mother, sad and sad, fell asleep in a daze, and heard the palace people discussing in a trance.

"...In fact, even if the empress does not die at this time, if His Highness wants to be the crown prince in the future, he will still die..."

"...If you die at this time, there will always be some affection left! Didn't your majesty have a rift with the late emperor because of this..."

"...Since His Majesty is also a victim, and he has a deep bond with Your Majesty, maybe..."

——The royal family of the Northern Wei Dynasty had a system of sons and mothers dying, just like when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty killed Mrs. Gouyi and established his son.

Tuoba Tao woke up suddenly, stood up, took out his sword from the armor that he was waiting to put on tomorrow, and walked out of the inner room, "You guys are so brave, you dare to talk about the royal family!"

These few palace people didn't expect Tuoba Tao to be so sharp-sighted, they were so frightened that they knelt down and begged for mercy.

Tuoba Tao swung his sword and was about to cut off their heads, but suddenly he smelled the fragrance of tea, which was refreshing and vaguely familiar.

Tuoba Tao's movements froze for a moment, his eyes widened suddenly, recalling why he felt familiar, he suddenly turned around and walked towards the place where the tea fragrance wafted.

The palace people look at me and I look at you, I don't know what kind of evil His Highness is besieging.But even if they had a hundred courage, they didn't dare to follow, they all lay on the porch like quails.

Tuoba Tao walked into the court with his sword in hand, and saw a person sitting at a stone table under the moon cooking tea, describing it as the same as six years ago, even the Taoist robe seemed to be the same one back then, but there were many A cape.

The outside of the cloak is like ink and the inside is like flames. There are nine cold stars on the back, and the hem is winding to the ground.

Tuoba Tao was a little excited, so he took two quick steps and walked to the stone table.

Huang Zhu looked at him with a smile, "Your Highness has grown up."

"Why haven't you appeared again?" Tuoba Tao said the first sentence, and he felt full of resentment after he said it.

"Your Highness should know who I am." Huang Zhu pointed to Nine Heavens away, "I still have some chores in the sky, and I have settled them one by one until now. I just didn't expect that Your Highness has been waiting for me?"

Tuoba Tao nodded embarrassedly, they didn't make an appointment at all.After a moment of silence, he said sadly: "You are here, but unfortunately, I will go out tomorrow. I am afraid that when I come back, you will not be here again."

"I know, I just came here to see you." Huang Zhu said with emotion, "A half-grown child is going to fight against foreign enemies and shed blood on the battlefield."

Even in ancient times, 12-year-old children from ordinary families were still playing around with chickens and dogs. Whoever called Tuoba Tao was a militant Xianbei, and even a child of the royal family.

Tuoba Tao tightened the sword in his hand, "I will not bleed, only my enemies will bleed."

"This bad temper will never change..." Huang Zhu murmured in a low voice, raised his hand and took off the cloak, got up to tie it on for Tuoba Tao, "I lend you the cloak, and return it to me later."

Tuoba Tao touched the cloak, only felt that Jia was extremely warm behind him, and there was no strange feeling, as if he had merged with him.

Tuoba Tao liked this cloak very much, and said in his mouth: "Stingy, do you want to return it?"

I've never seen something that was given out go back!Huang Zhu thought, "Then I will lend you for four or fifty years."

For many mortals, four or fifty years is a lifetime.

Tuoba Tao experienced the death of Du Guipin, and already had a certain concept of human life and death, so he nodded silently.

Huang Zhu poured a cup of tea for Tuoba Tao.

After six years, Tuoba Tao drank this tea again, savoring it carefully, "I have never used it before, what kind of tea is this? Where is it produced?"

"This is the Yunwu tea planted on the top of Kunlun Mountain, which inherits the aura of heaven and earth and absorbs the essence of the sun and the moon." Huang Zhu said.

Tuoba Tao: "Although this tea is good, it's a pity that there is no wine."

Drinking tea to the moon is not as free and easy as drinking tea under the moon, not to mention going to war tomorrow.

"A 12-year-old brat, what kind of wine do you want to drink?" Although Huang Zhu said so, he still took out the wine, "This is my own brewed wine, which has been diluted many times, but it is enough for ordinary people gone."

Tuoba Tao drank a cup, and sure enough, it was the best of the class, just like tea, "What does the sky look like?"

"Heaven? It's the same in the sky. It's not much different from the underground, maybe a bit colder." Huang Zhu clinked a glass with him, "Come, I wish you a triumphant return."

Tuoba Tao bumped into him and had another drink, "Then where do you live in the sky?"

"I don't live in the sky, I usually live in the world, Zhaoyao Mountain."

Tuoba Tao confusedly said: "Scrolling Mountain... Isn't that the legendary fairy mountain? Does it really exist?"

"You have seen all the immortals, and you still question the immortal mountain." Huang Zhu said with a smile.

Tuoba Tao consciously searched for some classics and legends after seeing Huang Zhu.After the pre-Qin period, the traces of immortals gradually decreased, but there were more signs of Buddhist manifestations.

Zhaoyao Mountain is famous for the legend of Wen Eryou Zexian, but now the story of Wen You Zexian has not been seen for a long time, and the story of Zhaoyao Mountain is far away from everyone.That's why he was a little puzzled.

——This is naturally Huang Zhu's deliberate intention. If he shrinks his head for a while, he can recover in the future.

Tuoba Tao couldn't help but exchange cups with Huang Zhu, the moon was in the middle of the sky, and he was unknowingly drunk.

……

The next day, the palace servants woke up Tuoba Tao who was lying on the stone table.

After Tuoba Tao woke up, he recalled what happened last night, saw that the table was empty, and asked, "Did you hear anything last night?"

The palace maid tremblingly replied: "No, no." Just kidding, how dare she listen!

Tuoba Tao knew that this was another misty encounter.

Tuoba Tao rubbed his head and stood up, stumbled, stepped on something, looked down, it turned out to be a cloak that slipped to the ground, black on the outside and red on the inside, it was clearly the one Huang Zhu gave him last night!

Tuoba Tao looked at it for a while, then asked the palace man: "Have you seen this?"

The palace man hesitated for a long time before answering: "No, the standard is not an item in the palace..."

Tuoba Tao was completely relieved, picked up the cloak and dusted it off.

……

Tuoba Tao went north with the army, although it was his first actual battle, but he was worthy of his extraordinary talent, he shined brilliantly on the battlefield and spread his prestige to Rouran.

In the crucial battle, Tuoba Tao led his army to pursue Rouran's defeated army.

Unexpectedly, there is a sharpshooter in the Rouran army, and the chaos army shoots an arrow at Tuoba Tao, and shoots straight at his chest, and it is impossible to avoid it!

Who would have thought that at this moment, Tuoba Tao's body suddenly emitted a red light, and the powerful arrow fell to the ground as if hitting a wall before it reached him.

This red light is clearly the same as the vision of Tuoba Tao in the legend when he was born. Some people in the two armies have heard this rumor, and they are all dumbfounded at this moment.

After a while, cheers erupted from the army of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and they spread the story of Tuoba Tao's childhood, corroborating it with the vision just now, that their highness was indeed blessed by the gods.

The Rouran army was just the opposite, everyone was terrified and their morale plummeted.

The Wei army defeated Rouran and returned to the court after victory.

Along with the news of the victory, of course, there was also the heroic performance of the eldest prince on the battlefield, and the miraculous red light body protection.Many people believed that it might be that His Highness was protected by the Buddha.

Tuoba Tao's prestige among the people soared, and Tuoba Si was even more satisfied with him when he saw him.

He is the oldest, has no mother, and does not have a strong mother clan. He is capable of literature and martial arts, and now has a reputation. This is the most suitable successor.

So, more than a year later, Tuoba Tao was officially registered as the prince.

More than a year later, Tuoba Si passed away due to poor health. Tuoba Tao became the third emperor of the Northern Wei Dynasty at the age of 15, and changed his name to "Shiguang". Important red light.

Perhaps it was because there were no secrets in the court, the news that Tuoba Tao had a good impression of Taoism spread.

In the first year of Shiguang, a Taoist priest came to Beijing and presented Taoist books to the young emperor Tuoba Tao who had just ascended the throne.

The Taoist priest, surnamed Kou and named Qianzhi, claimed that the Supreme Lord gave him the "Lutu Zhenjing" and told him that he could be the emperor's teacher.So Kou Qianzhi brought Taoist scriptures and came to Pingcheng to fulfill the will of the immortal.

Tuoba Tao received Kou Qianzhi, who was wearing ordinary clothes, leaning lazily on the table, "So, you know the Supreme Lord?"

Kou Qianzhi nodded and said: "One time, Pindao also practiced under the disciples of the Taishang Laojun for several years. To put it mildly, he is considered half a fairy."

"Then do you know other gods?" Tuoba Tao asked, "Do you know Huang Zhu?"

"...I don't know," Kou Qianzhi saw that the emperor's face was not right, and immediately added, "But the poor can communicate with the gods, as long as they open an altar to the gods, they will know each other."

Tuoba Tao: "Then you open an altar."

Kou Qianzhi didn't expect the emperor to go off topic all of a sudden, "This, this... If you want to be a dojo, you have to fast and prepare Qingci, which takes a long time! A preparation can take at least several months, and it can't be completed in a short time. !"

Tuoba Tao's interest dropped again, "Oh, besides saying that you can be the emperor's teacher, what else did the Taishang Laojun say?"

Kou Qianzhi swallowed his saliva, and said cautiously: "The old gentleman also said that I should teach Taoism all day long, eliminate false teachings, and promote Taoism."

In fact, at this point, his intention of coming here is already obvious, just waiting for the emperor to ask, what is false law?

Tuoba Tao showed a smile, "Well, then you go and prepare for the dojo."

Kou Qianzhi was dumbfounded. He hinted that the emperor himself wanted an official who could command Taoism in a good name, but what did the emperor say about rituals?

Associating with the previous words, Kou Qianzhi instantly felt that what the emperor meant should be that if he wants to get what he wants, he must let the emperor get what he wants.

Kou Qian was full of hope for a while, and said: "Pindao will go back to the dojo to prepare, please rest assured! It is the end of the year now, and the next year will definitely ask Your Majesty to observe the Dharma!"

Tuoba Tao nodded in satisfaction, "Very good."

After Kou Qianzhi went out, he inquired and tried his best to inquire about the old affairs of the palace.It turned out that there was a rumor in the palace that the emperor still met a fairy when he was a prince, and there was a yellow bamboo statue in the emperor's palace, which has been enshrined from time to time in recent years.

Kou Qian understood right away, he guessed right.

Kou Qianzhi fasted and prepared at the ashram located in Mount Song. Sure enough, in the spring of the next year, he sent an invitation to Tuoba Tao.

Tuoba Tao happily went to Songshan to participate in the dojo, and also brought the yellow bamboo statue that he had collected for many years.

Over the years, he has also tried many methods, such as talking to the statue of Huang Zhu, offering incense, etc., but there is no way to call out Huang Zhu again.This Kou Qianzhi swears that he can communicate with the gods, and what he said is convincing, so he believes it once.

In the Songshan Taoist Temple, Kou Qianzhi opened the altar, led his disciples to practice, read a long Qingci, and burned a stick of incense.

I saw incense burning, green smoke curling up, straight into the sky.

The guards who came with Tuoba Tao were all amazed, a wisp of green smoke went up to the sky, isn't this the trick of a god?

Kou Qianzhi saw the effect so well out of the corner of his eyes, and secretly smiled inwardly.Of course he can't tell everyone that strictly speaking, this is not a Taoist method.It was passed down by the ancient human race, and it was adapted from the method of burning incense and asking passing gods for help.

The original method of inviting immortals has long been known to no one, and Kou Qianzhi knew it, which is also a family tradition.His mother, Fang's family, heard that his ancestors had successfully invited immortals, and even went to the heavenly court to have a peach feast.

What kind of adaptation method is this adaptation? To invite passing gods, you can only invite passing immortals. Kou Qianzhi heard that the ancient imperial concubine Jian Di was enshrined in the Nuwa Temple, so he asked Nuwa to bring messages to other immortals.So he combined the two, named them in Qingci, and asked the passing gods to pass the message on their behalf, and lead Huang Zhu to meet each other.

After reading the Qing Ci, seven or eight out of ten incense burnt.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, and Kou Qianzhi fainted.

All the disciples helped him up, pinched him and slapped cold water on him, even Tuoba Tao got down from the throne to have a look.

This is all done, and now I fainted, could it be that I can't do it and pretend to be dead?

After a long time, Kou Qianzhi came to his senses, crawled up to Tuoba Tao and knelt down, "Your Majesty, the poor...the poor have fulfilled their mission!!"

Tuoba Tao's heart fluttered, "How to say?"

"Just now, there is a fairy entering the minister's dream!" Kou Qianzhi said excitedly, "The Immortal Huang Zhu told the poor Taoist that he has heard His Majesty's heartfelt voice, but now is not the time to meet him. Please wait patiently and calm the country first. .”

Tuoba Tao wanted to believe it but didn't dare to believe it, his expression was unpredictable, after all, Kou Qianzhi fainted and just said that, who knows if it's true or not.

Kou Qianzhi saw that Tuoba Tao's expression was uncertain, and quickly said: "The immortal said it a long time ago, if your majesty doesn't believe it, read a poem to your majesty: Tingting Minggan photo!"

Tuoba Tao's expression relaxed, "Get up, Daoist Priest, you are worthy of being the celestial master appointed by the old gentleman, I will build a new dojo for you in Pingcheng, and you can preach there with your disciples in the future."

Kou Qianzhi was overjoyed and hurriedly thanked Jun for his kindness.
