Chapter 444: The Way of Destiny

 “It’s so serious...”

 Lao Abacus looked confused. He didn't expect that Hu Ma would suddenly ask himself this question, let alone that this question was so important and related to his own life.

Seeing that Hu Ma had frightened him, he also breathed a sigh of relief and patiently explained: "Since I entered the door and learned the skills, I heard more and more people starting to mention the so-called theory of destiny."

"However, many people have mentioned it, and it seems that this destiny is also very important. However, there is no one in the sect who specializes in studying this destiny, and I have not met anyone who can clearly explain this destiny. Let’s make it clear…”

“It makes me more and more confused, what is this destiny?”

 "My birth date, horoscope? Or origin, status? Or three souls and seven souls, or even the destiny in the dark?"

　　　…”

　　After asking my doubts, I just looked at the old abacus, for fear that he would be vague and perfunctory again. In fact, this question is too important to me now.

The old abacus's eyes were also rolling, and it seemed that his mind had moved a few times, but in the face of Hu Ma's serious gaze, he finally put all other thoughts behind his mind, sighed lowly, and said: " There are actually ways to specialize in studying destiny..."

"Um?"

Hu Madu sighed helplessly and said, "It would be good for both of us if you explain it clearly quickly..."

"There is a master behind Zhuang Erchang, and there is someone to avenge him. As for you, you are said to be the steward of our Red Lantern Club, but our Red Lantern Club can't reach that far, and our ladies don't mind other people's business."

Hu Ma was still thinking about this question when Lao Baanpan took the initiative to answer: "Of course the consequences will be more serious if you kill Zhuang Erchang."

“The abilities of each discipline are diverse and classified. Because everyone has different skills, sometimes people who belong to the same discipline look completely different in terms of their abilities.”

“They are all related to fate, but they cannot represent fate.”

"It's just like a negative spirit. Some people have a negative spirit. They just need to burn incense, find a godmother and godfather, and receive some blessings. Some people have to treat themselves as cows and horses, and use their lives as candles to burn... "

　　　…”

"...But these two are not the most powerful. The most powerful negative spirit. People follow the path of ghosts and borrow Yin soldiers. It is clear that the negative spirit is born, but it can sit on the head of a living person and become an ancestor. The body uses Yin to connect Yang. His ability is so powerful..."

Hu Ma was startled: "Among the ten major gates, is there any skill based on destiny?"

"When Zhuang Erchang dies, Mr. Sun will make a big fuss and send people to catch the robber. Have you seen it?"

“It’s not that I’m trying to be mysterious, the main thing is that this thing is not there in a down-to-earth way, and it’s not like you staying up late and just grabbing knives with your fists...”

"You and Zhuang Erchang were on the road together. Of course, you were still young. You two encountered a robber on the road. The robber wanted to take away your property and kill one of you. Do you think he killed him? Between the two of you, which one has more serious consequences?"

Listening to what he said, Hu Ma suddenly thought of the Meng family, who had a deep hatred against the Hu family, and thought thoughtfully, but Lao Baanpan just gave an example and sighed: "The same is true for fate. You just mentioned the birth date, origin, Status, three souls and seven souls, five evils and eight fortunes..."

 After a pause, as if he was thinking of a suitable example, he suddenly thought of one and said, "Zhuang Erchang!"

 “It’s time now, so stop being so mysterious...”

　　　…”

 “Why?”

 But Lao Baanpan did not continue to talk about this matter. He just shook his head and whispered: "What you asked is the key, but you think about fate too simply."

 Lao Abacus cried out in pain and then said: "If you want me to explain it clearly to you, then I really don't have the ability. I can give you an example."

 “Just like you and that...”

　　　…”

"For the robber, he just randomly picked one to kill, but the consequences of killing these two people are different. Killing you means there will be no consequences, but killing Zhuang Erchang will have serious consequences. This means that Zhuang Erchang's fate is heavier than yours. "

　　　…”

Hearing this, Hu Ma felt a little strange: "How can it be explained like this?"

 “This is the simplest destiny, but if you go deeper, there is another layer of difference.”

Seeing that Hu Ma was listening attentively, Old Abacus explained: "On the surface, you don't have a master to take care of you, so your fate is light. But there is another possibility. Although he has a master, his master is not that great. You see no one." Take care of me, but inside is the lost young master of a wealthy family."

"So, the robber originally thought that your fate would be lighter, but in fact your fate is heavier than Zhuang Erchang's. It would be more troublesome to kill you than to kill Zhuang Erchang. Big families will come looking for you..."

"And this is something that mortals can't see. Sometimes, ghosts and gods can know it, because ghosts and gods can see that you have the blessing of your ancestors in your blood, and they know that you come from a wealthy family, even if your skills are inferior to those of others. Zhuang Erchang has a great destiny."

　　　…”

 ‘Is it possible that this destiny theory is just about who has a big backstage and a big background? ’

Hearing this, Hu Ma felt more and more weird.

But the old abacus sighed again and said: "But even at this level, it is still shallow. The most profound theory of destiny no longer only depends on the person's ability and identity, but also some hidden things. Something."   "Just like you are not as capable as Zhuang Erchang, and your status is not as high as him, but secretly, you are the emperor's destiny, and you will be the emperor one day in the future. At least it is related to the birth of the emperor and the entire dynasty. Luck lies with you alone."

“But Zhuang Erchang is just a warrior, so the consequences of killing you will be much more serious than killing this warrior.”

“Ordinary people often associate fortunes with fortune tellers, because fortune telling can tell some mysterious things..."

　　…But I think it’s nonsense, and I can’t calculate it accurately anyway!”

　　　…”

Listening to his rambling and mysterious words, Hu Ma actually fell silent and followed his train of thought. After a long time, he whispered: "Then, if you let go of the robber, just let him go." What will happen if these two people whose fates are so important meet?"

 Old Abacus was startled for a moment, then laughed and said, "Then this will be interesting."

“In common sense, when two people with light fortunes come together, the one with light fates will often be manipulated by the person with heavy fates. Regardless of identity or status, they will always be dominated by others.”

"As for Xuanli, if two people are originally hostile and meet each other, and your destiny exceeds that of others, all kinds of coincidences will occur, all in your favor. If others' destiny exceeds yours, then it is always right. It’s beneficial.”

 “No one can disobey me, that’s all.”

　　　…”

Having said this, he waved his hand and said: "Of course, even if you talk about it this way, it is still superficial. What I said only explains one or two hundredths of the word fate, which is far from it."

“Fate changes mysteriously and is uncertain at any time. Whether it is light or heavy, whether deep or shallow, it must be determined at the right time.”

　　　…”

"this…"

Hu Ma followed what he said and thought about it for a long time, but suddenly her heart brightened. She took a long breath, picked up the herbal tea on the table, brought it to the old abacus and said: "Brother, you really make me cum." You’ve learned a lot, please have some tea!”

 “Ouch…”

It was the first time that Lao Abacus received this kind of courtesy. The wrinkles on his old face were almost stretched, and he said: "Look, look, give me a cup of tea, it's still cold..."

“…By the way, are there any blood food pills? I was scared before and I need to take some supplements!”

　　　…”

"No!"

Hu Ma said: "When I get back the several thousand kilograms of blood food that others owe me, I will definitely give your brother a few hundred kilograms to keep him healthy."

With a sincere promise, Hu Ma sent Lao Abacus out and returned to the couch, thinking silently, as if something was suddenly opened.

  How can we explain the theory of destiny in this way?

If you think about it more deeply, the explanation of fate is very mysterious. Let alone using it, you can't just study it and understand it. But at a more superficial level, even just linking fate with cause and effect can explain the problems you encounter in your own practice.

No wonder it is said that only those with an official body can cultivate the powerful General Seal of God. After all, the official body is borrowed from the dynasty’s luck. The cause and effect are very heavy. Bandits dare not provoke them, and ghosts and gods dare not provoke them. Even if they practice cultivation, they can suppress them. You can understand the abnormality in the soul.

 However, in the past twenty years, the emperor has disappeared, and the gold content of the official position has been seriously weakened. Moreover, even if he has not been weakened and is determined to rebel without eating cattle, he will not become an official.

Naturally, I am not an official now, I am just a small shopkeeper of the Blood Food Gang, so no matter who I am, I can’t practice this method. Even Dahongpao will point me to find something that can suppress my destiny. .

 But actually I think I already have it...

Thinking of the general's order hidden in his natal temple, Hu Ma held his breath slightly, feeling nervous and excited.

 …

 …

At the same time, Shima Town was in chaos. Some people were running around, asking for details. Some people were packing their things and trying to go outside to see if they could escape. .

Miao Shanxian from Yiqian Cult was talking to Mr. Sun and others to reassure people, but Bai Fan was standing by the altar, patiently waiting for the senior brothers to reply.

According to his calculations, the letter had been delivered, and it was time to tell whether the senior brothers would come and how soon they would come. However, he did not expect that after waiting for a long time, there was no movement. In the fire pond, a dark wind suddenly started blowing. A strange green fire burned, illuminating the dark surroundings in the yard.

There were a few little guys with chains wrapped around their bodies, struggling in pain, and cried to the white fan: "Master, the letter can't be delivered. We were caught, so we deserve you..."

Bai Fan was excited and woke up. He saw that there was no green fire burning in the pond, but there were some ashes flying around his body. It was the paper that burned the paper man earlier and flew out of the town. Ash actually flew back again.

His face turned pale for a moment and he shouted loudly: "No, even the road to Hades is blocked..."

“It’s not just the official who keeps the old age coming, but also...there are also negative spirits!”
