As soon as these words came out, I was immediately speechless.
Although I am not interested in longevity at all, and even dislike it, this does not prevent longevity from being tempting to others.
For those people, there is probably nothing in this world that is more attractive than immortality. After all, as long as you have an infinite lifespan, you can get everything you want. It's just a matter of time.
Therefore, there may really be such a craftsman who guided Zhu Wusi to this Feng Shui pattern and allowed him to 'die in peace'.
But although this is possible, I still think it is very unrealistic. After all, what is the purpose of this person doing this? Helping others ascend to the throne does not seem to be of any benefit to him.
Xie Chuanyin said, will there be no benefit from this? Once the world is in chaos, that guy can control the world's destiny. It's not immortality, but it's better than immortality. Isn't this advantage great enough?
I still don’t understand what’s so good about taking advantage of the world’s luck. If you don’t have the life to bear this luck, you will be crushed to death by it. You won’t have the blessing to enjoy this world’s luck. How can it be better than immortality? Got a deal?
Xie Chuanyin sighed and said, "Every line is like a mountain." This is not true at all. Little kid, let me ask you, we Kunjiang are good at stealing other people’s luck, why didn’t I get crushed to death by our luck?
Let me tell you, you barbers must have special means to control your luck so that it cannot backfire on you.
He said, since you can think of this, why can't you think that the person who controls the world's destiny also has this ability?
I was stunned when I heard this, and after a while I asked him, do you mean, that guy is also a barber?
Xie Chuanyin hummed appreciatively, but then asked back, if he wasn't a barber, wouldn't he have been crushed to death by luck long ago?
Let me tell you, even if he is a barber and has a way to control his luck, so what? The world doesn't belong to him, so what does he want from this world?
Xie Chuanyin only replied to me with eight words: Turning your hands to make clouds and turning your hands to make rain!
Let me tell you, wouldn't it be easier to be an emperor?
He said, you talk about power, but I talk about power, it is the power that really controls the wind and rain, and controls life and death. Besides, if he buries himself in it, he will die on the spot, and his descendants will only be emperors. If it were you, would you cry?
I thought for a while, then shook my head and said, I neither want to be an emperor myself, nor do I want my descendants to be emperors. Being an ordinary person is better than Mo Zi.
He snorted coldly and said, "I didn't expect that after a lifetime of dissatisfaction with the Luo court, I would actually cultivate a grandson who is indifferent to the world. It's rare, it's really rare."
I didn't argue much. After all, a person's ideals are not realized by words, but by one's actual actions.
But if it is like what Xie Chuanyin said, if that person can really control the world's destiny and call the wind and rain, it will indeed be more tempting than dying himself and letting future generations become emperors.
I think, not just him, but most people would choose this way.
Xie Chuanyin spoke again, "Do you know why we barbers like to steal other people's luck?"
Let me tell you, enjoy this feeling of controlling everything?
He said, no, but there is a saying from our ancestors that says, "Luck is overwhelming, longevity is boundless."
I was shocked when I heard this and said, Immortality? !
He said, so now you know, why is that person unwilling to bury himself in it?
I thought to myself, aren’t you talking nonsense? If you had said this earlier, I wouldn't have argued with you at all, okay?
With the combination of immortality and the temptation to control the wind and rain, any individual would choose this path.
But having said that, this is just your personal guess, Xie Chuanyin. Maybe this person does not exist at all. Did Zhu Wusi handle all this by himself?
After all, if such a person really existed, this would definitely not be the only example in history, and similar things would definitely happen - because according to what Xie Chuanyin said, if he wants to control the world's destiny, he must cause chaos in the world. But except for Zhu Chongba who proclaimed himself emperor in white, there seems to be no similar example in history.
Xie Chuanyin said, is it true? At that time, among the great ancestors of the Han Dynasty, Liu Huangshu, Zhang Yichao, and Zhu Wen, which one did not start from a commoner and eventually became an emperor?
Let me tell you, except for Han Gaozu, the three you mentioned are either in a corner or short-lived and cannot be regarded as real emperors. Two examples are probably special cases and nothing like that. Besides, after the Ming Dynasty, there was no such thing as Bai Yi becoming emperor again.
I heard Xie Chuanyin sigh lightly, as if he didn't agree with my analysis.
I asked him why he sighed, and he said, is it really not possible for Bai Yi to become emperor again?
Absolutely not. I am a Chinese language student. How can I be wrong about the history of my country?
Xie Chuanyin sneered, and then said, Li Zicheng doesn't count?
Well, although this short-lived ghost's dream of being an emperor only lasted less than two months, he still sat on the throne and became the so-called emperor.
Xie Chuanyin said, it's not just him, there will be others later, you can think about it yourself.
I was about to complain that he only spoke half of what he said, but suddenly something came to my mind, and I was suddenly stunned, and I didn't dare to think about it further.
I quickly stopped my thoughts, and then asked Xie Chuanyin with a horrified look on his face, "This should be Zhu Wusi's grave, right?"
Xie Chuanyin said that he was not killed by these hundreds of thousands of mummies, but was killed by a thought? Don't worry, it's Zhu Wusi who is buried here. So, you now believe that there is such a person?
I nodded hurriedly and said, I believe it or not.
It took me a long time to calm down, and then I calmed down my excitement, and then asked him, tell me, you have gone around in such a big circle, what does it have to do with your fake death?
Xie Chuanyin said, because this guy is not just a barber, he is the ancestor of our Xie family. Does it matter to you?
I was unprepared and staggered by his words, almost falling to the ground.
After working on it for a long time, you damn girl knew from the beginning that your ancestors of the Xie family were related to Zhu Wusi, but you still went around in such a big circle asking questions. Are you feeling bored?
Didn't you just tell me right from the start that it turned out not to be delicious? Everyone is very busy, can you be less clichéd and more candid?
Unexpectedly, after seeing through my thoughts, he said in a panic, "Don't talk nonsense. I only told you that our Xie family had an ancestor who was a barber. I didn't tell you anything else. You can analyze it yourself."
Hearing his tone, I immediately thought of Zhang Hazi, who also told me the same thing.
I know that although their craftsmen know many things, they cannot tell me directly. Otherwise, the backlash they will suffer is simply not something they craftsmen can bear.
So I understand why Xie Chuanyin is like this - he can only guide me, but can't tell me the answer directly.
But I still don’t understand. That guy is the ancestor of your Xie family. What does it have to do with your generation of people who faked their own deaths one after another, and also took the lives of your wives and children?
Xie Chuanyin still only said two words: retribution!
