Chapter Forty-Eight: The Theory of Luck
It's dusk again.
The afterglow of the setting sun seemed to dye the earth red.
Young Master Wang threw the Zihao in his hand on the table, and the ink splashed, but Wang Meng didn't care. He picked up the "ghost drawing" on the table, then leaned back in his chair, held it up in front of his eyes and looked at it again.
After a long time, when a few maids lit the lantern hanging on the side of the hexagonal pavilion, Wang Meng crumpled the "ghost painting talisman" in his hand. But, thinking about it, he felt that it was wrong, and he spread out the crumpled paper, folded it in half, and then he began to tear it up.
Soon, the paper he smeared all over it became a myriad of confetti.
Why did Young Master Wang do this? Because he already knew what that "qi" was. Lest someone else discover his secret, he must be cautious. But because that "qi" is everyone's "luck".
It's incredible, isn't it? When Young Master Wang came to the whole conclusion, he also thought it was incredible. I can actually see this kind of mysterious thing. "Luck" should have been ethereal, something that Fang Shi was talking about, but it appeared in front of his eyes very really. Young Master Wang suddenly became convinced.
The so-called luck is, simply put, a person's fate, a person's number of qi! Or to put it more bluntly, it is the arrangement of God for you in the dark.
Every person is born with the qi of heaven and earth, so from the moment he is born, he has his own luck. What people say about good and bad life is the difference between everyone's luck and size, color, and so on.
The reason why luck is equivalent to God's arrangement for you is not entirely true. But because as long as it is a human being, then there will be communication, and as long as there is communication with others, then the luck of these two people will be connected. The degree of connection lies in how close the two people are. Therefore, at this time, because the luck of the two people is connected, their own luck will also change because of this.
The simplest thing is to say that when a person becomes an official after gaining fame and fame, he is connected with the fortune of the country. If the ruler of the country shows closeness to you, then the country's luck will be more blessed on you, and some of the original disasters may be saved because of the country's luck protection.
Everyone's luck is different, small means that the pattern of your whole life is small, and big means that your life pattern will be very large, of course, you must also break out of the world by yourself.
Some children born to domestic servants are born of the family. When his luck is connected to his master's family, it also limits the size of his luck, and if nothing else, he can only be a domestic servant forever in the future.
Next, it's about the color of luck. Broadly speaking, it can be divided into black, gray, white, red, yellow, cyan, and purple.
Needless to say, black can only represent two kinds, one is that if you are lucky enough to be black, then you are not far from death. One is the luck generated by the assembly of the army, which can also be called military qi. Black, which represents death. When the army is assembled, that is when the great war is about to begin, and the dead are everywhere.
Gray represents those at the bottom. The kind that has no freedom in life at all, is born as a slave, is allowed to live in order to live, and is allowed to die in order to die. It also means that the future has a dead end, bad luck and so on.
White, that's what ordinary people are. There's not much to say.
Red represents those wealthy people who are rich in wealth and have a small reputation in the local area. It can also represent the chief officer of a county.
Yellow represents a family that has been passed down for hundreds of years. It can also represent the members of a state and a government.
Cyan represents those gate valves that really have no less than the royal heritage. It can also represent the big officials who have the right to speak in the court, the princes, the marquis and the like.
Light purple, the air of a king. For example, those vassal kings. Or the king who appeared in troubled times.
Purple, the air of the emperor. In normal times, there is only one emperor who rules all directions.
Of course, as mentioned earlier, humans are social animals. Unless you are alone from birth to death in some mountain col, then your luck will not change. But as soon as people come into contact with each other and their luck is connected, then there will be changes. Not only does the color of the luck change, but sometimes even the size of the luck changes.
For example, Wang Meng's "Seven King Kongs". Ah San was born as the son of the Wang family, and their fate is linked to the Wang family. They are limited from birth, so their luck is at most the size of a cup and a bowl. But because they are backed by the Wang family, they have a hint of red in their white luck. This shows that although they have been domestic servants all their lives, they have no worries about food and clothing.
Another example is Zhou Bo, who was born destined to inherit the Zhou family's family business. As he continues to grow, even if he doesn't rely on fame, his luck will turn red. Now that he has been admitted to fame, he has appeared yellow in red, and he is destined to have something to do on the official journey.
Yellow has cyan in it. If Wang Meng really married Liao Qing'er, then the luck of Liao Governor's Mansion would change like this.
Yellow is divided into pale yellow and golden yellow. The light yellow category is the release of officials, and the golden can be regarded as a court official.
Then there is cyan, there can be no blue with purple. Unless someone can be confident that they can plot to usurp the throne (such as an archmage). Cyan is also divided into light blue and dark blue.
Almost all the second-grade and above officials and even those who control a state can only be light green.
Deep blue (blue), well, it represents this royal family. There are officials in the Wang dynasty to the prime minister, and the master of the rivers and lakes is the famous Wanjian Tower in Shuzhong. And behind this, there is a Netherworld Sword Pool that hides countless secrets and has always been a legend.
In addition, after becoming an official of the imperial court, one's luck will be wrapped in a cloud of purple, which is the protection of the state. If you want to assassinate and frame the court officials, etc., you will be attacked by the country's purple qi. (The strength of the backlash depends on whether the dynasty is strong or weak)
Of course, there are not only changes in luck, but there are also countless kinds of changes. If you think that your luck is as thick as a lake, and the color is blue and shiny, then you will die......
The so-called impermanence of heavenly power, once or twice you can escape through your own strong luck. However, luck is also consumed, and every time you escape from death, every turn in life, is a consumption of luck. When you have exhausted all your luck, then congratulations, you can die.
Luck also has a change in appearance, some people are born with great luck, and their luck will change, depending on the person. Wang Meng could see that the luck on Li Mu's head had turned into a flying sword. What does this mean, Young Master Wang hasn't understood it yet (I'll sell it first), but he knows that the Tao in this is by no means simple.
