Chapter 08: Life is hard to change
Fate is a very difficult to explain, mysterious and wonderful thing, it can be calculated!
However, it is actually useless to calculate it, not that after knowing it, the result has changed, but that some things cannot be changed at all even if the result is known, and some things, even if they can be easily changed, are useless at all.
For example, some people who are proficient in hexagram numbers can really calculate that a person will encounter something small in a day, such as whether he can meet relatives and friends when he goes out, and what color of vehicles can he see anywhere...... And so on, and so on, and so on, all of which can be clearly calculated.
I have never seen someone who can calculate big things, but since someone can really calculate small things, then it is likely that there are really people who can calculate other people's big things.
However, it's not a big deal to be able to count small things, it's not a big deal to think about it, rather than wasting brain cells, counting these useless little things, in fact, it's better not to be easier, therefore, when I saw this kind of ability for the first time, although I felt very good, but, after thinking about it, it was just like that, learning these things is purely a waste of time.
As for the big things, even if they can really be counted as some big things, they are actually useless.
There are many such people in history, starting from King Wen of Zhou, all the way to the sage himself, as well as his contemporaries Guiguzi, to Mr. Wolong during the Three Kingdoms period, Yuan Tiangang in the Tang Dynasty, and Liu Bowen in the early Ming Dynasty.
However, if you can calculate and how to do it, there are major events about yourself and others, as well as major events about the world, which is not so easy to change at all.
Take Mr. Wolong as an example, his most famous successful fortune-telling case is not the seven-star lamp to continue his life, but the one with Uncle Liu Huang in the grass house before he went out of the mountain - "Longzhong Pair"!
I don't know if this article is true, what Mr. Wolong said at the time, but if this is true, when Uncle Liu Huang heard this kind of bullshit strategy like a madman, but really dared to adopt it directly, then Liu Bei is really a very great hero!
The series of plans in "Longzhong Pair" now seem to be a cow's beep, but if you think about it carefully, it is not difficult to find that Mr. Wolong's plan is really rotten out of the galaxy, and it is really difficult, difficult, and difficult to succeed!
Why do you say that, just think about Liu Bei's situation at that time, when he saw Mr. Wolong, he was just a down-and-out general who had no more than 10,000 soldiers in his hands and was a guest in a foreign country.
And what is the plan that Mr. Wolong gave him?
First of all, Mr. Wolong analyzed the situation for Liu Bei, Emperor Wu in the north waved millions of troops to the south, and in the south, there was the Sun family in Jiangdong III, but this is not a problem, as long as the boss has a heart, we can defeat Emperor Wu with this little man, and then play Sun Quan around, and finally directly annex the entire Jingzhou.
Hearing this, anyone who has a little self-knowledge will ask themselves in their hearts, what the hell am I doing?
Not to mention Emperor Wu's Mount Everest, nor Sun Quan's cow-beep hill bag, let's just say that Liu Biao, the big landlord of Jingzhou, and the group of Wenchen generals under him, are not easy to get along with.
Oh, you said that if you annex Jingzhou, can you annex it, why!
To put it bluntly, Jingzhou's super fat meat can't be eaten by Liu Bei after eight turns.
This is not the end, before the future lord Liu Bei can answer, Mr. Wolong directly told a shocking plan again.
Yizhou is a good place, not only the land is fertile but also easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is the starting place of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty, and there is a Zhang Lu in the north to help guard the door, such a good place, we must swallow it.
Yes, Yizhou is a good place, this is something that everyone in the world knows, but it is precisely because of this that you can imagine the difficulty of winning this super fat meat, therefore, after winning Jingzhou, you will go directly to Yizhou non-stop, and if you don't get it right, it will be a ruin, this move is too dangerous, too dangerous!
Therefore, Mr. Wolong is not at all risky in his life, and the two-step strategy he set in "Longzhong Pair" is simply the most difficult and dangerous two-step strategy in the world.
Finally, he was extremely cautious and said to the future main bus: "If there is a change in the world, then a general will be ordered to lead the army of Jingzhou to Xiang Wan and Luo, and the general will lead the people of Yizhou out of Qinchuan. ”
It is clear and clear, if there is a change in the world, we will directly send troops to the north in two ways, and at that time, we can achieve hegemony and revive the Han Dynasty!
On the other hand, if the world does not change, then we will honestly sit on the land of the two states and be a safe and stable big landlord, don't toss.
What was the result, Liu Bei miraculously rose in Jingzhou, and then as if he was a son of the plane, he took Yizhou and directly became the second largest prince in the world.
However, Emperor Guan Sheng, who had been proud all his life, was still too anxious in the end, and he was defeated in the small wheat city, and directly threw the huge Jingzhou out.
Therefore, Mr. Wolong, who knew this result, should have clearly understood that his Shuhan Group was already ...... , there is no Destiny!
If this doesn't prove that Mr. Wolong is a person who can be regarded as a big thing, looking at the "Lesson Before the Horse" he wrote, you should be able to know a little bit about his ability in this area.
Of course, "Lessons Before the Horse" is a very professional article, if it is not for the knowledge of "Zhou Yi", people who have a deep understanding of it, reading this article is no different from reading the book of heaven, and "Zhou Yi" is an extremely difficult book to understand.
Confucianism and Taoism Chubby once watched "Zhou Yi", just read it once, and although he agrees with many of the truths in it, he really has no interest in such a laborious and useless thing as fortune telling, so he just read it roughly once, and he didn't put much effort into it.
So, is this the case, is it really useless to tell the hexagram, it's just a kind of assumption of understanding, anyway, he is thick-skinned, and he is not afraid of saying the wrong thing and others laughing at him, it can be regarded as a kind of nonsense.
However, he has always kept in mind the first sentence of the hexagram of "Zhou Yi", that is, the gentleman of Tianxingjian will continue to strive for self-improvement, no matter how things change in the future, whether he can hide the dragon and not use it, see the dragon and then field, dry all day long, or jump in the abyss, fly the dragon in the sky, and regret the dragon, until the last Tiande can not be the head, and self-improvement is the starting point of all this.
If a person does not understand the principle of self-improvement, then even if he knows what is behind, what can he ...... , what about fart?
Therefore, instead of struggling to calculate the hexagram, it is better to eat a big meal, after all, you can grow more than half a catty of meat, right?
