Suddenly, the master started laughing, very happily. He looked at me and said, "Yes, what I just said was just ordinary divination, but there are so many divination techniques in the world, and the probability of each one is different. For example, the "Sanqing Divination" in the hands of Liu Yidi in Harbin is a divination technique with a probability of up to 75%. The accuracy of the book is unparalleled. Of course, the side effects are also very large..."

I didn't say anything and continued to listen to the master. I knew that the master would say these things for a purpose.

“If there were no divination like that in Zhuge Liang’s notes, perhaps ‘Three Purities Divination’ would be the most accurate divination technique in the world.” After saying that, the master’s eyes condensed, and then he actually took out a black talisman, and then the master bit his tongue and sprayed it on the black talisman, and the black talisman suddenly flashed a black light, and then the master threw it onto the roof, and quickly formed seals with his hands, chanting: "Hurry up and obey the order." Then he pointed his right hand at the black talisman, and the black talisman disappeared as if it had merged into the roof.

The master then let out a long sigh and said to me, "The fate of the conversation in this room within an hour cannot be determined."

"Master." I looked at the master and wanted to speak, but the master waved his hand and said, "Listen to me."

"The contents of Zhuge Liang's notes are indeed extraordinary, and the accuracy rate is almost 99 percent." When the master said this, he smiled bitterly, looked at me and said, "But I haven't used this thing many times. So far, I have only used the divination technique in Zhuge Liang's notes a few times."

"Why? And aren't you so powerful, Master?" I looked at the master and asked. (:7~8, fastest update)

The master nodded and found a stool to sit down, and slowly said: "The divination techniques I have used so far are just some of the divination techniques used by ordinary Taoist priests."

"Why don't you use the divination technique in Zhuge Liang's notes?" I looked at the master and asked, "Could it be that the side effects are serious?"

The master gave me a praiseful look, then said with a dim look in his eyes: "That's right."

I looked at my master and said, "I heard Taoist Master Huang Bin tell me some stories about your youth."

"Um, Huang Bin, what did he tell you?" The master seemed quite interested and asked me. I then told him what Taoist Huang Bin had told me.

After listening to it, the master nodded and said, "Yes, that's the general situation, but Huang Bin doesn't know many details, and he doesn't know about Mao Linlong and I entering the cave."

"Since we still have a lot of time, I will tell you a more complete story." The master smiled and said to me: "Do you know why my parents died?"

I didn't say anything, I looked at the master, the master smiled bitterly and shook his head and said: "The things in Zhuge Liang's notes are different from other Taoist arts. This is something that defies the heavens. You only have one of the five disadvantages and three deficiencies. Even if you practice a very deficient technique, you will only have two of the five disadvantages and three deficiencies at most."

"Master, you." I looked at the master, and I seemed to understand a little bit.

The master nodded and said to me, "I have committed all of them. The five evils are widowhood, orphanage, loneliness, disability, and the three deficiencies are money, life, and power. I have committed all of them. My parents died because of me. As for money, I have always been broke. As for life, under normal circumstances, I would only live to my thirties. As for power, the village chief wanted to marry his daughter to me. I almost became a village official when the Red Guards came to search my house."

"Are you talking about the Wang Er that Huang Bin mentioned?"

"Well, Wang Er is a cowardly and incompetent person. Someone just wanted to frame me." The master smiled bitterly and said, "Xiao Jiu, you don't understand my pain. It's okay to watch my loved ones being killed by myself, alas." When the master said this, his originally old face also showed a painful expression.

"Especially because I almost killed the woman I loved the most, and in the end I could only watch her marry someone else." When the master said this, his eyes were slightly red. I looked at the master and asked, "Have you ever liked anyone, master?"

"Stupid boy, I am also a mortal, how could I not have someone I like." The master looked at me and said, "It happened three years after my parents were murdered. I was only about 26 years old at that time, but because of the Taoist methods in Zhuge Liang's notes, my abilities were much better than yours now."

"Actually, after being taken away by Wang**, I didn't wander around like I told Huang Bin. Instead, I went to Huilong Town. It happened that the mayor of the town was haunted by a ghost, so I went to visit him and wanted to ask about the specific situation."

When the master said this, he actually had a silly smile on his face, and said with a confused look in his eyes: "The one who opened the door at that time was Mingmei. Mingmei is very beautiful, and she is not uneducated like other women. She is very smart and still in college. She just went back to her hometown to play during the holidays." When the master said this, he also had a silly smile on his face.

I thought to myself that the master must love the girl named Mingmei very much.

"Master, what's next?" I looked at the master and asked. I also had a vague feeling that since the master had five disadvantages and three shortcomings in his life, there would definitely be no good outcome.

"That's how Mingmei and I met. The one who was bothering his father was just an ordinary unlucky person. I dealt with it easily. At that time, his father invited me to stay in Huilong Town. I had originally planned not to settle down in one place, but for Mingmei, I accepted his father's kindness and lived in Huilong Town."

"After that day, I went to see Mingmei every day, taking her out to play, to see the peach blossoms, to the market. Mingmei was also very smart, and she gradually fell in love with me. Originally, this was a very good thing, and her father did not object to us. At that time, there were many ghosts, and it was a good thing for the people in the town to have a capable gentleman living in the town."

When the master said this, his face finally turned a little ugly, and he said, "It was the second month after I met Mingmei. I loved her very much at that time. Maybe two months is indeed a little too short, but for me who had no feelings at that time, two months was like everything to her. She should be the same. But one day when she was going to the market alone, she suddenly had a car accident."

I looked at the master and asked, "That Mingmei, is she dead?"

"No, it's not that simple." The master smiled bitterly and said, "Maybe God was against me. Mingmei didn't die at that time. Instead, she was admitted to the district hospital."
