Chapter 36: Asking Master Cause and Effect To practice the art of fate
After returning home, I hurriedly took out the "Occult Arts" after simply talking to my family, and went to the hut to study carefully, but the strange thing is that whether I am criticizing the eight characters or shaking the hexagram, it is not effective, and the mind cannot calm down at all.
Since I can't figure out anything, I just go to the master, and I just think about the master.
With the Taonan fragrant wine he bought for the master, he rode his bicycle to the old temple.
Riding to the temple gate, getting out of the car, I found that the temple was much more dilapidated, and I couldn't help but sigh with emotion in my heart, unlike before, I didn't shout, but walked slowly inside, nostalgic for the bits and pieces of my past life with the master.
Walking into the main hall, there was no one inside, the Sanqing god seat was still placed on the incense table, and the three pillars of incense were emitting faint smoke, indescribably quiet.
Continuing to walk inside, into the inner room, there was a table on the floor, and on the table there was a fruit bowl, and the Master was lying peacefully on the chaise longue, closing his eyes and recuperating.
Looking closely, the master's hair has long been gray, his two gray eyebrows are hanging down, and the wrinkles on his face are like ravines, telling the endless vicissitudes of life.
His eyes couldn't help but moisten, the old Taoist priest who used to be a fairy wind bone no longer exists, and now he is just an old man who has been corrupted by the vicissitudes of time.
I was reluctant to wake up Master, so I wanted to look like this, but Master seemed to feel something, closed his eyes and asked, "Who?" I'm old now, I don't care about anything, go find someone else. ”
"Shall I go?" I said out loud.
"God bless!?" Master opened his eyes and asked aloud, as if he had suddenly become many years younger and glorious.
The two cried bitterly when they saw each other, although they had not seen each other for only one semester, but they both knew that the days of meeting were getting fewer and fewer, and it was not certain whether they could see each other next time.
Master held my hand, kept looking at me, and muttered, "Well, I've grown taller and become an adult!" ”
But when Master looked at my face, he froze visibly for a moment, and then returned to normal. Although this change was fleeting, I caught it.
I didn't ask right away, I could see that Master didn't want to explain, so I helped Master sit on the kang, made a pot of tea for Master, and then squatted down to beat Master's legs.
Master asked me a lot, how was my academic performance, how happy my life was, and how I had a good relationship with my classmates
When we really didn't have anything to say, Master changed the subject and said, "God bless, have you met someone with whom you have great cause and effect?" ”
"How do you know?" I asked in surprise.
Although I saw the inadvertent changes of the master at that time, I did not believe that the master had the ability to predict the future, and now the master's attainments in the talisman art are beyond my reach, but the master of divination and physiognomy should not be as good as me.
Master sighed, as if he was much older, and even shook his head and said, "Master didn't know at first, but when I saw that your Yin Hall was black, I was faintly a little dead." ”
"What!? Dead air!? Why didn't I see it myself? I asked, opening my mouth wide.
"Don't be surprised, anyone who enters the Xuanmen can only sense their own good luck and evil in their hearts, and they can't see or calculate it themselves." Master explained.
Now I understand why I can't figure it out, I can't even shake the hexagram, every time the hexagram is hazy and difficult to understand, think about it, if I can still count, it will be too rebellious.
Think about what kind of scenery Zhuge Liang was back then, sitting firmly in the big tent in the army, pointing out the country. But because there were too many killings, he lost thirty years of life. Even if you use the seven-star lantern to borrow your life, but the will of heaven is like this, you can't go back to heaven.
"I know you can't calculate anything yourself, so just," Master said here and paused.
I know, Master, this is the Taoist method of forbidding the art of unpredictable prophets, which can calculate the next three years, but at the same time, it will also lose three years of longevity.
With tears in my eyes, I slowly knelt down, and the master did not stop me, but said kindly: "Child, there is not much life expectancy for the teacher anyway, not less than these three years, so it is good to save your life for once." ”
"I gave you a batch of eight characters back then, I only knew that you had a catastrophe when you were young, but the cause and effect were not big, I thought it was nothing, but who knew that there was such a big cause and effect now." Master continued.
I knelt on the ground and took Master's hand, choked up and said, "Master, how much Yang Shou do you have?" ”
Master stroked my head and said, "You better listen to what I have to say, and then you can ask." ”
"I'm sure you already feel that the man has a great karma with you, right? He had a close relationship with you in his previous life, and he died because of you! Master said word by word.
After listening to this, I collapsed to the ground, and my heart seemed to be turbulent, because I knew that among all the causes and effects, life and death cause and effect are the greatest, for example, parents and children often have great causes and effects in previous lives, and this life will pay them off.
"Master, what should I do?" I asked anxiously.
"Alas, what a bad fate! Your fate in this life is determined, and life and death must depend on each other! I don't know what you should do, but I can teach you a Taoist forbidden technique - Destiny! Master replied.
I stood up and asked, "Destiny?" What's the use of that?"
Master Zhengse said: "It is said that the "Destiny Technique" is a profound predecessor imitating the immortal "Great Destiny Technique" research, and was later banned by the Taoists of the past dynasties, because this technique cannot be used by the rich and noble, the non-determined cannot be used, and the non-Taoist proficient cannot be used, and it is also very bad for the caster, but this technique can change the cause and effect of fate, and can even change a person's life and death!" ”
"Master, you have given me eight characters, I remember that I met these conditions, you can tell me!" I asked anxiously.
Master sighed and said, "It's all wrong, it's very bad for you, it may ruin your life's future, you have to think about it carefully!" ”
"Master, I've made up my mind!" I said firmly.
When the master saw that I was so resolute, he no longer dissuaded me, so he taught me to practice the forbidden technique "Destiny Technique", which is similar to the health preservation technique in the Yellow Emperor's Neijing, although it is called the fate technique, but it is not how much the caster can bring people a good fate, but to lend his own luck to the caster in a special way, so that he can obtain luck and change the future direction.
For Liu Xin, he is my lifelong friend, I can't help him, so I will simply give him my luck to avoid a death catastrophe, and I also know that it takes a lot of luck to change life and death, which is why Weishenme said that you must be rich and noble to use this technique, but no matter what, I have strengthened my belief that I must help him!
