The Wei army went out of the city one after another, and returned together after gathering. However, dozens of cavalry horses did not follow the army to the north, but turned their horses' heads to the south and galloped towards the direction of the Song State.

Tuoba Tao took the advice of his subordinates and sent people to the Song State to inquire about the news. In addition to this, several of those people have other missions.

When the soldiers and horses of the Wei State were mobilized, there were also movements in other regions of Shenzhou.

During the Wei-Xia War, although the Song State did not send soldiers and horses to invade the Song-Wei border, after the news of the defeat of the Xia State came out, the Song Emperor Yilong hurriedly ordered Sizhou and Yanzhou soldiers and horses to be on guard, and at the same time sent envoys to Shangtai and Rouran.

But Sima didn't know all this. Even if he knew, it wouldn't matter to him for a short time.

When Tuoba Longyang returned to Pingcheng with the army, he was taking Langya to the valley where the Wei cavalry had been ambushed and stationed.

There are not many living creatures in the valley.

When the army was stationed in the past, several valleys were occupied, and the wild vegetables in the valleys were all dug up, not to mention some living creatures that could provide skin and flesh.

But after the army left, some living creatures appeared one after another.

After the general Eqing led his army to aid and attack the city, the Wei army did not come here again. Some of the things that were purchased before are still there, and they are scattered in the valley at the moment. These things have become the amusement of the remaining living creatures.

When they saw that someone was coming again, the living creatures who had just returned a few days ago scattered and fled. Sima Wenzhi ignored it, walked in the valley for a long time, found a favorite place, sat down and began to practice.

Reiki is the foundation of cultivation, and the deficit needs to be made up after that. Sima asked to attract the spirit into the body, and gradually entered a state of concentration.

The scattered creatures saw that he was not hunting and killing like the people before, and slowly began to return. Some walked only a dozen steps away from him and watched his movements with curiosity.

Langya is bored.

She has been with her many times in this matter, and she knows that Sima will not stop asking for a short time. With nothing to do, she began to run and chase the living creatures around her.

The living creatures that had just returned scattered again in all directions.

In the afternoon, Sima Wenzhi gradually woke up from his meditation. After calling Langya back, take her away. As he left, he thought about some things and made some decisions in his heart as he walked.

When he was channeling spirits before, he did not close his senses, but deliberately extended his aura to investigate the surrounding situation.

This place is far away from people, and even if it causes a violent disturbance of the aura, it will not be noticed, and it is indeed a good place to practice.

When he came back the next day, Sima Wenzhi brought the classics from the sect, but he did not bring the books he had obtained in the imperial city.

Because he promised to stay in Tongwan and guard the town, he ordered all the books to be moved to his residence in the city.

He had read these books roughly, and most of them only recorded some self-cultivation words, and did not involve magic. The worldly people value it and are of little use to him.

However, even if you value it, just these few classics will not be hidden in the Imperial City of the Xia Kingdom, and it is a hidden place in the Imperial City. He guessed that when the men arrived in the house first, they had taken away the most precious parts, and it was impossible to know what the contents were.

Although Tuoba Su advised him to leave him, he did not send anyone to look for him in the past few days. Sima Wenzhi speculated in his heart that he had left him just in case, and he would be fine if everything happened.

It's good to have plenty of time to practice.

Reiki is the foundation of cultivation, and magic is a means of self-defense. Before, he was riddled with mundane things, and he not only consumed his aura, but also wasted his magic.

Therefore, after he replenished his aura yesterday, he has to study the magic today.

Recalling the experience of cultivation in the past few years, Sima Wenzhi did not use many techniques for attacking. When facing the enemy, most of them use fire.

In addition, there is also the invitation to seclude.

What he was thinking at this time was not these two, but the Shangqing Fa, which he had only performed once, reversing yin and yang.

When he fought with Tuoba Longyang for the first time, he had used it. This method does not block one move, but it can draw salary from the bottom of the kettle.

Before, the reversal of yin and yang was a fight with people. Now I want to rehearse, and there is only one person here. For a moment, he was a little embarrassed, and subconsciously looked at Langya on the side.

As if he knew what he was going to do, Langya didn't wait for him to make a move, and a few jumps disappeared.

However, this did not stump Sima to ask, and soon after Langya left, he thought of a feasible way. The spirit casts a barrier in front of him, and then casts a reversal of yin and yang on the barrier.

The spell had just been cast, and the barrier had become a little weaker than before. Sima Wenzhi drew a trace of aura from above, and looked at it carefully after reaching his fingertips.

In the past, he only studied the Fa-rectification records and then tried to perform them, without delving into the connotations contained in the Dharma itself.

At this time, after carefully examining the aura at his fingertips, he realized that the essence of this method involved the origin of heaven and earth.

The casting of spells all needs to attract the aura of heaven and earth. When he was in the sect, Sima Wenzhi once asked the elders of the sect what the aura was.

Getting an answer is the key to communicating between the inside and outside of this world.

The mundane world is inside the square, and the mundane outside is the outside. There is a door and window between the inside and outside of the square, which is guided by the aura and shuttled back and forth by people.

When he asked what Fang Wai was again, Tian Chengzi no longer responded positively. Just tell me a little, and when you reach the fairyland, you will understand.

Although Tian Chengzi did not respond positively, Sima Wenzhi already had his own guess at that time. There are legends of the fairy world in the secular world and in the sect, and most of the outside refer to the fairy world.

But when he thought about it, his idea at that time was not perfect.

The essence of all things in the world is yin and yang. Outside the square is the place where the two qi of yin and yang exist.

The casting of spells is guided by mantras, hand formulas or talismans, and aura as a medium to attract the power hidden in this heaven and earth. Only when the two qi of yin and yang correspond can the spell be cast.

The reversal of yin and yang by the Shangqing Fa is to disrupt the correspondence between yin and yang, and to lose the medium and way to attract this power.

After thinking about this, Sima Wenzhi looked in front of him. At the time of his realization, the barrier was still being eroded by magic, and it was already crumbling and about to disperse.

Although the effect of reversing yin and yang is powerful, it cannot be performed continuously. He removed the broken barrier and led the spirit back to cultivation.

Around noon, Langya returned, holding two hares in his mouth. Sima Wenzhi used his fire skills to bake cooked food for her.

In the following days, one man and one wolf went back and forth between the valley and Tongwan City several times. One person cultivates, and a wolf gallops in the valley to expel him, claiming the title of king and hegemon.

After that day's realization, Sima Wenzhi gradually had a unique insight into the arts, no longer superstitious about the descriptions in the two scriptures, and began to study and practice according to his own ideas.

The white horse passed through the gap, and the months rushed by.

In February of the following year, the Wei lord Tuoba Tao captured Bai Hu in Dingzhou, believing that it was auspicious from heaven to protect Wei, and then changed the Yuan to Shenyu.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for Helianchang, the lord of Xia, to be captured by Wei General An Jie and escorted to Pingcheng, the capital of Wei.
