Volume II: On the March 85. It Takes Three (continued)

Although the result has been calculated, Tianchengzi still decided to let him go, and he also has his own reasons.

Taoists carry the way of heaven and have their own destiny. But destiny is not fate, and the cycle of cause and effect is not a dead end. The art of divination is to anticipate things and prepare them in advance. If necessary, you can break the cause and effect and change your life.

Sima asked about it, and Tianchengzi had the ability to leave him on the mountain to hide for a while. But he didn't have the ability or the energy to protect him every time. What should come will always come, and blindly avoiding it is not a long-term strategy.

After seeing Sima Wen's figure in his eyes, Tian Chengzi sent a disciple to wait outside the door to summon Xuanli here. Letting go is not letting go, after all, he still has some concerns and wants to make some more preparations.

All the worries disappeared, and after walking out of Tianchengzi's residence, Sima Wenzhi was in a good mood. Then he walked lightly down the peak, and when he was about to reach his residence, he stopped and walked towards General Gao instead.

Qingxuanshan and Shanbei saw that in the eyes of others, it seemed that they were returning from morning to sunset, but Sima Wenzhi had other plans in his heart. It is impossible to predict when and whether you will return after descending the mountain. In Qingxuan Mountain, General Gao is the closest person to him, and he can't bear to say goodbye to him.

Life in the mountains was boring, and after Taiqing and Yuqing moved to Qingcheng and Longmen Ershan, there were no major events in the sect within a few years.

In the first two years, General Gao could not adapt to life in the mountains, and repeatedly shouted that he wanted to go down the mountain to collect the old troops and fight Liu Yu. But when Sima Wenzhi's cultivation and magic were seen by him, he dispelled the idea of going down the mountain.

"Sharpening knives is not a mistake in the work of logging. When Sima asked him why he had dispelled his thoughts, he mostly responded like this.

Not long after arriving at General Gao's residence, Sima Wenzhi saw that he was studying exercises to strengthen his physique. The exercises were found for him by Ling Shuang, and after a few years of study, he gained a lot, which was also a reason why he was able to stay patiently in the mountains.

"Uncle Gao, tomorrow I will go down the mountain to do something, and I may have to leave for some time. After taking a seat, Sima asked straight to the point, explaining the purpose of the trip.

"But there's news from the old general?"

After hearing this, General Gao stepped forward and asked in a low voice. Several previous attempts to persuade Sima to go down the mountain were refused, and at this time he took the initiative to leave, making General Gao feel that the time had come.

"The sect is sent to do official work. Sima asked and hurriedly clarified.

It's a business matter, and it's a private matter.

It is taboo to speak falsely in the sect, but he is no longer stuck to stereotypes and habits at this time. Rules need to be followed, people must also know how to be flexible, and white lies are better than the truth that causes trouble.

"Oh. General Gao was disappointed when he heard this.

Sima Wenzhi didn't stay in the house for long, and he got up and left after a while. It had been a long time since the time of Shen was gone, and he was going to the dining hall to ask for some food. As soon as the morning is over, I will go down the mountain, and I don't know if I will be able to see the morning food.

"Your Highness, Daoist Huang Ling came to me not long ago to look for you. After Sima Wenzhi got up, General Gao opened his mouth to remind.

After re-entering Qingxuan Mountain, General Gao rarely called him "Your Highness". But if it is commensurate with this, there are mostly reasons.

"I haven't forgotten who I am. After Sima asked, his footsteps paused slightly. Then he opened his mouth and walked out of the door.

After coming out of General Gao's place, Sima Wenzhi changed his mind and instead of detouring to the dining hall, he went straight to his residence. Ling Shuang came to General Gao's residence to look for him, indicating that he had been waiting for him for a long time.

After cultivating to the realm of gods and men, Sima Wenzhi's ability to see at night has greatly increased. Before he could get close to his residence, he could already see Ling Shuang pacing back and forth there. Seeing this, he hurried a few steps and hurried back.

"I didn't expect you to come when I went out. After meeting Ling Shuang, Sima Wenzhi panted and explained.

"Who is hidden in the house, and why is the door locked, so mysterious?" Ling Shuang didn't listen to his explanation, and opened his mouth to ask questions repeatedly.

Soon after Sima Wenzhi went to Shangqing Peak, Ling Shuang returned from Di Kuizi. Seeing that the door of his house was closed, he wanted to push the door in as usual. After pushing it a few times, the door did not open, and when I looked closely, I found that it was locked.

Qingxuan Mountain is relatively closed, there are no thieves, and the disciples do not have the habit of locking the door on weekdays. If it is inconvenient to see guests due to personal matters, they also hold the door against the inside. Seeing this, Ling Shuang knew that Sima Wenzhi was not in the house, and it was intentional to lock the door of the house.

After Sima asked, he stepped forward and opened the door of the house, but did not reply to Ling Shuang's inquiry. He heard Ling Shuang's inquiring tone, he was complaining after waiting for a long time, not really suspecting that there was someone in the house.

"I begged for a long time, but the ancestor said that he couldn't make the decision on this matter, and there was nothing he could do. After entering the house, Ling Shuang told the result.

After being rejected by Di Kuizi, Ling Shuang was anxious to find Sima and ask him, wanting to find a way together. However, Sima Wen did not return for a long time, and it was already night, and it was too late to lobby the other elders.

"Well, I expected that. Sima asked where the results had been, and there was no surprise after hearing it, and he didn't feel urgent in his heart.

"Have you prepared all the things you need to go down the mountain tomorrow?" After replying, looking up and seeing the disappointment in Ling Shuang's eyes, Sima couldn't bear to ask, and opened his mouth to ask her about her preparations.

"This trip doesn't take much time, so you don't need to prepare. Ling Shuang replied after hearing this.

Even if you need to prepare, you don't have the time to prepare. After being rejected by Di Kuizi, Ling Shuang lobbied repeatedly, which took a lot of time. Then he waited outside the door, and did not have time to go back to prepare.

"It's not early, hurry back and prepare. Sima asked and ordered the eviction.

Ling Shuang didn't want to sit for a long time, so she got up and left after hearing this.

Ling Shuang didn't need much preparation, but Sima asked if he did, which was why he let Ling Shuang leave. But before preparing to do something, he first took out a pen and paper, and transcribed the essence of what Tian Chengzi said before according to the memory in his mind.

Later, he took out two sutras, and the sutras contain records of his practice of many skills, and although cultivation is important, these skills should not be wasted.

Just after two o'clock on the second day, a disciple sent a pilgrimage meal, which should have been informed by someone in the sect.

Compared with the past, the morning food sent by the disciples this time was very rich. But after Sima Wenzhi saw it, he only ate the green vegetables, tofu and porridge paste, and did not move the extra food.

When he was in Jiankang, he often heard that the last meal of death row inmates would be very rich, and although he was not superstitious, he was very taboo about it.

When the hour was about to pass, Ling Shuang and Xuan Feng went to the mountain gate. When the hour came, I still didn't see Xuanfeng having the intention of leaving.

"Uncle Shi, when will you go down the mountain?" After waiting for a while, Ling Shuang asked.

"Wait, there are still people who have not arrived. Xuan Feng opened his mouth to explain.

Ling Shuang was puzzled, she only knew that she was traveling with her uncle Xuanfeng, and she didn't hear that there were others, so she immediately wanted to ask again.

Before he could speak, someone appeared on the path in the distance and walked towards the mountain gate.
