Chapter 8 Chapter 7 The God of Destiny

And the second dream determined Wu Luyuan's life for the second half of his life, and it couldn't be better--when he left his original life, I'm afraid I let him imagine it, and I can't imagine what will happen in the future good life. When I thought of this, I suddenly remembered that Wu Luyuan's life can be said to be extremely lucky. When he was young, he survived a catastrophe, and then there was a long period of good times. Although the turmoil in the world is dangerous, he has experienced it all. Young man He and the prime of life just need this kind of life that has gone through the wind and waves.And when he reached the prime of life, he had such a special status in that island country, enjoying the prosperity and wealth, without any danger, and at ease.I really can't think of any kind of life that is happier. If there is a fairy life in the world, then Wu Luyuan's life in the past few decades is a fairy life.

I asked Bai Su: "Can you give an example of another person, compared with Wu Luyuan, who can be as lucky as Wu Luyuan?" Bai Su frowned, and said: "Don't forget, Wu Luyuan lost a leg, so it can't be called luck." I said: "Lose a leg, in exchange for a lifetime of happiness, it's a great deal!" Bai Su didn't seem to want to continue arguing with me, she said: "You mean, those two dreams brought good luck to Wu Luyuan." I nodded: "Yes, on the surface, the two dreams saved the dreamer, but in fact it was Wu Luyuan who benefited the most."

Bai Su was thinking, but didn't respond immediately, the matter was discussed here.Another very strange discovery is that the relationship between the old man in the dream and the dreamer does not seem to be very close. The close relationship is between the old man in the dream and Wu Luyuan. Although Wu Luyuan has never seen this old man (in a dream), but this old man appeared in other people's dreams, all for the purpose of making arrangements for Wu Luyuan's future.And after his arrangement, Wu Luyuan has been smooth sailing ever since, just like in a fairy tale; — and lived a happy life ever since.

If the old man didn't have a special relationship with Wu Luyuan, why did he use his super power to take care of Wu Luyuan? But what is the relationship between this old man and Wu Luyuan? Associating one problem after another, I don't know how far I can think.But it's useless at all—no matter how many questions you come up with, there are only questions and no answers. Bai Su didn't make any further noises. I thought about it for a while, and thought it was useless, and I didn't need to waste my brain, so I didn't think about it any further. I don't know what Bai Su has done for this matter in the past two days, I don't even care about it at all, I just wait for Wu Luyuan to come again.Just send him away—although the matter is weird and worthy of further study, but it is completely elusive, so of course I have to give up.

I even thought that the old man in the dream was obviously the key person. If the two people who had dreamed of him were still alive, then we could use their descriptions to describe this supernatural person according to the image they saw in the dream. Ability to draw the appearance of the old man. Although it's useless even if you have an appearance—how can you find someone who only appeared in a dream?But that was finally a beginning, but now there is no such beginning, everything is a dream-like illusion, but this illusion has formed many facts. It's so weird to the extreme! In all my experience, I am afraid it is difficult to find such an example of helplessness.

On the day when Wu Luyuan was supposed to appear, he waited until the sunset, when he saw the big black car driving up to the door under the cover of the sunset glow. I'm impatient, and I've been impatiently waiting since noon, and finally it's time.This big car belongs to the kind that big people take. The driver's seat and the back seat are separated. All the windows in the back seat are one-sided reflective. You can't see the inside of the car from the outside. Look at it , All the car windows reflect the crimson sunset, which is very beautiful. Seeing the car approaching the door, I turned around and called out to the house: "They're coming!"

Bai Su agreed inside, and when I turned my head, two people got out of the car. Mr. Minister from the front.Get off next to the driver. And the door on one side of the back seat opened.First, an iron crutch stretched out, and then Wu Luyuan also got out of the car. I described this process in quite detail because some things that happened later had something to do with this process—the relationship was that I only saw two people get out of the car, but did not see the situation inside the car at all. At this time, Bai Su also came to the door, and Bai Su and I stood side by side, it seemed as if we had been standing and waiting.

The minister was young and didn't understand etiquette, so he didn't think much of it, but Wu Luyuan understood, as soon as he saw us, he immediately rushed towards us and said repeatedly: "You two are too polite. " I said, "Both of you, please come in." Wu Luyuan and his grandson entered the room. Before they could sit down, Wu Luyuan asked, "Is the problem solved?" I couldn't help being angry and funny, seeing his situation, as if we owed him. I had to say a few words of politeness at first, but now it seems unnecessary.I said, "I can't say it's resolved, I just have some ideas."

Wu Luyuan let out an "Ah", in an instant, as if he was hit by a thunderbolt?Staying there, motionless, is obviously extremely disappointing. His reaction is so unreasonable! Who can solve such a complicated, bizarre, and nihilistic matter within three days?He should understand this, there is absolutely no reason to be so disappointed after hearing me say this! Looking at his situation, he was indeed extremely disappointed.It can only be said that his expectations of us are too high, the fault is his own, and has nothing to do with us. His body was shaking a little, his grandson hurried over to help him, but he stretched out his hand and pushed it away, looked at us, and said, "No clue at all?"

Seeing him still suffer from disappointment at such an old age, I also sympathized, but his question was actually questioning. I think he can't answer my question, because the whole thing has no clue at all. We can make a lot of assumptions out of nothing, which is already very difficult. Sure enough, when I asked back, Wu Luyuan opened his mouth wide and didn't say a word. The atmosphere was very embarrassing as soon as it came up, Bai Su came to smooth things over, saying: "It's not like nothing, at least I have some ideas, and I have identified a key person." After hearing Bai Su's words, Wu Luyuan seemed to be a little angry again, but I had to try my best not to laugh. If Wu Luyuan thinks that things have really developed, then he will be disappointed again. , must be stronger than before!

I really didn't expect that Bai Su would make such a joke about Wu Luyuan—what kind of "key person" is like that, he is the old man in the dream who does not exist! I can't imagine how Wu Luyuan will react after hearing our idea. He is already an old man in his eighties or nineties. Maybe he will die immediately after being stimulated. I'm afraid it will cause international disputes! I originally wanted to remind Bai Su not to make too much of a joke, but I thought it was funny that I was trying my best to hold back my laughter. Bai Su must know why I did this, and she would know how to deal with it at the same time. At that time, Wu Luyuan was very happy, rubbing his hands again and again, and said, "That's great, who is this key person?" Bai Su spoke very seriously, and said: "It's the dream that Old Chen and Gu Lele had, the old man I heard in the dream!" I wanted to stop Bai Su from saying that, but it was too late.I involuntarily closed my eyes, not having the courage to watch Wu Luyuan's reaction after hearing what Bai Su said.I guess he will let out a scream of disappointment and anger, and then "gudong" and fall to the ground. I should fight for the first time and call an ambulance. Thinking of this, I opened my eyes and saw the situation in front of me, but it was far beyond my expectation! Seeing Wu Luyuan's expression was extremely serious, he didn't feel that Bai Su was joking with him at all, he stared at Bai Su, eagerly expecting Bai Su to continue talking. And Bai Su is also very serious, absolutely not like talking nonsense, she also looked at Wu Luyuan, as if waiting for Wu Luyuan to speak first. For a moment, I couldn't help but be baffled to the extreme—it seemed that they were going to discuss it seriously, but I really couldn't understand what room for discussion there was on the topic of "the old man in the dream"! I know that there are some things that I don't know, and I know even more that in such a situation, it is better not to express opinions indiscriminately. Later, Bai Su didn't know whether to tease me or really praised me, saying that it was not easy for me to keep silent at that time, saying that I was old and calmer than before, I could only secretly smile bitterly. Wu Luyuan and Bai Su had a stalemate for a while, and Wu Luyuan finally spoke first.Said: "This old man... this old man... this old man..." Like a broken record, he kept repeating the words "this old man". (Adjectives are very contemporary. Adjectives like "like skipped records" were popular and easy to understand when everyone used grooved records. Suddenly, those records were Laser discs have been eliminated and have become historical relics. Of course, such adjectives will soon be eliminated. Even if some old people, like me, still use them, they have to explain them to others, which is very funny.) Bai Su insisted on not saying anything at the time, so Wu Luyuan repeated it at least seven or eight times before he could continue, saying: "This is an old man... What's going on?" Bai Su took a breath, and asked Wu Luyuan and his grandson to sit down. At this moment, I noticed his grandson, and the minister's expression was also very nervous and serious. This kind of nervousness and seriousness surpassed that of his grandfather Due concern──What happened to Wu Luyuan has become history, there is absolutely no need to be so nervous. Mr. Minister's demeanor only shows two problems: first, the matter has developed recently; second, the minister is very familiar with Wu Luyuan's past affairs. The second point is easy to understand. What happened to Wu Luyuan back then was so strange that he would definitely tell his children and grandchildren, and probably more than once. However, I can't figure out the first point—it has been decades, so what kind of follow-up development can there be? At this moment, Bai Su glanced at me, and in her eyes, I could see that she was signaling that I should pay special attention to Mr. Minister's reaction. I nodded slightly, knowing in my heart that during these two days, Bai Su must have done a lot of homework related to the matter. She didn't discuss it with me, probably because she saw that I was not very interested in the matter. Although she thought of something, she was still immature and there was no need to discuss it. I think what she means at this time is that she will deal with Wu Luyuan exclusively, and I will pay attention to Mr. Minister's movements. To be honest, at this time, I still don't understand what the matter has to do with that minister. I always thought that he was just here with his grandfather. However, Bai Su asked me to pay attention, and the minister's expression and attitude were indeed unusual, so I paid extra attention. At this time, Bai Su had already started to answer Wu Luyuan's question "What's the matter with this old man". The content of Bai Su's answer is the assumption I made after discussing with her. Bai Su told Wu Luyuan that the old man in the dream has many superpowers, and the most special one is that he can control the future. Our assumptions are really illusory, all based on fantasy and have no actual basis, but Bai Su spoke seriously, and Wu Luyuan and the minister also listened seriously. Bai Su even said: "In the experience of Wesley and me, we have met many people with superpowers, some of them are from the earth, and some are not. Among the superpowers we know, there are people who can predict the future. , but this is the first time I have come into contact with the ability to 'dominate the future'. It is really unimaginable what kind of ability is required to use this kind of superpower to complete it." Wu Luyuan's expression became more serious. He seemed to be looking for someone to rely on. He looked around, and the minister immediately went over and held his hand. Although he didn't speak, he showed such body language.Obviously, he was asking his grandfather to calm down and not panic. From his actions, combined with the disappointment shown by not getting any results immediately when Wu Luyuan came last time, it can be fully proved that what Wu Luyuan wants to find out is not what happened decades ago, but It's something that happened recently that needs to be resolved. And we have already expected that when Wu Luyuan came last time, he hesitated to speak and did not reveal his purpose at all. Now, of course, we can be more sure that what he did not mention is "what happened recently". What it is, he doesn't say, it's not hard to guess.The matter must have troubled him very much, and it must be related to his previous encounters, that is to say, it was related to those two dreams, and naturally it was also related to the old man in the dream. The seemingly illusory assumptions we made now seem to be obviously not completely illusory, but very useful, which is really "wrongly hit". Later, Bai Su disagreed with me very much, thinking that it was a "mistake". She thought that Wu Luyuan told us those two dreams just to ask us to study the content of the two dreams.As for Wu Luyuan himself, in the past few decades, of course, he has studied these two dreams over and over again, and he doesn't know how many times he has studied them. He and we both study these two dreams, based on the same facts, and of course it is easy to get the same results, which makes the dialogue between the two sides can be in harmony, how can it be said to be "by mistake"! After Bai Su said this, I immediately withdrew my opinion, because the whole matter, Bai Su's efforts are far above mine, why bother arguing with her on such a small issue! At that time, Bai Su walked over and handed Wu Luyuan a glass of wine, and Wu Luyuan drank it in one gulp.He took a deep breath and said, "That is to say, my whole life has been shaped by his power." As soon as he said "that is to say", instead of "what you mean", it can be seen that he already had such a cognition in his heart, and what Bai Su said just now was just the same as his original cognition. He said this now, of course, hoping to further affirm his own cognition.And this kind of affirmation must be of great importance, not just to find out what happened that year. Bai Su nodded: "Of course. Just imagine, if there were no those two dreams and what the old man said in the dream, what would your life be like?" We already have an answer to this question, and Wu Luyuan's answer is the same as ours at this time.He said: "Without the first dream, I would have died on the street long ago. There is no future!" Bai Sudao: "The reason why this old man in the dream appeared in Chen Lao's dream not only changed the dreamer's fate, but more importantly, dominated and shaped your life. This kind of situation is very strange, completely in our Outside the scope of knowledge and imagination, it is completely impossible to understand what is going on." At this time, Mr. Minister suddenly said a word, "Can it be said that this old man in the dream is my grandfather's God of Destiny?" His statement is very fresh, but it is not untenable. I answered first: "Of course, it is not only the god of fate for grandfather Ling, but also the god of fate for your entire family—if he hadn't pointed out Gulele back then, your entire family would never have existed." Mr. Minister is very satisfied with my answer, and not only he is satisfied, Wu Luyuan seems to be very satisfied too, the grandparent and grandson looked at each other and nodded.It seemed like a consensus had been reached on a very important issue. The development of things is often not as planned. When Bai Su and I hypothesized about the old man in the dream, we didn't think of talking about it.Naturally, the old man in the dream was placed in the position of "God of Destiny", and after putting the old man in the dream in this position, he felt that it was very suitable—the old man in the dream could indeed be called the God of Destiny, He appeared in a dream and completely changed the fate of many people, and the fate of many people was shaped and decided by him. If he is not the God of Destiny, what is he? The term "God of Destiny" was first put forward by Mr. Minister, and I took it for granted when I heard it.After responding, I looked at Bai Su, wondering how she would react. Bai Su already had an answer: "It is very appropriate to call that old man the God of Destiny. Since he has the super power to create and control fate, he is the God of Destiny in legend." Bai Su also agreed with this statement. The minister looked very complacent, looking at his grandfather, as if he was saying to his grandfather: You heard that, both Wesley and Bai Su said the same! I feel that Mr. Minister's attitude is very strange, but I can't tell where the blame is.I paid attention to Wu Luyuan's reaction, and saw that Wu Luyuan's eyebrows were knotted, as if he was thinking about some important issue. I also don't know what important question Wu Luyuan has that was caused by our conversation just now, and needs to be thought about carefully.He was wondering if the old man in the dream was really the God of Destiny!That is just a way of saying, whether it is the old man in the dream or the god of fate, they are all illusory and unpredictable, so there is nothing to think about. Of course, there were too many things I didn’t understand at the time. Later, the development of the matter turned out to be that way. Looking back at the situation at that time, I suddenly realized it. Please pay attention to my narration here, and I will not repeat it later. At that time, after Bai Su said it, he paused for a while, as if speaking very smoothly, he casually said: "This idea is very good, we never thought that the old man in the dream could be said to be the God of Destiny. Quick thinking is really rare." Bai Su praised Mr. Minister in this way, and the Minister was even more ecstatic.He replied: "I didn't think of it as soon as I heard the analysis from the two of you. I had such an idea long ago. It's just that my grandfather—" When he said this, he stopped suddenly, as if he felt that he had slipped his mouth and said something he shouldn't have said. I was very strange again. But Bai Su didn't seem to notice at all, she just said "Oh", and said: "So I thought of it a long time ago." At this time, although I have been ridiculed by Bai Su as "behind the clock", I also know that the current situation is something that I don't know, and it is happening. First of all, Bai Su's attitude, she pretended to praise the minister very casually.After decades of husband and wife, she can't hide it from me.Her purpose seemed to be to ask the minister to say something when he responded. The minister said a few words modestly, and what he said was very ordinary, but Bai Su seemed to have gotten what she wanted and felt very satisfied. What's so special about the minister's words? His words stopped suddenly, and what he didn't say after that was not hard to guess. He wanted to say that he had already identified the old man in the dream as the god of fate, but his grandfather didn't believe it. Although I can guess what he didn't say, I can't say what effect it has. I was full of doubts in my heart, and cast a questioning look at Bai Su, but Bai Su deliberately didn't meet my gaze. She did this, of course, under the current circumstances, and she didn't want to answer the doubts in my heart.It's more like if I ask uninterestedly, something bad will happen, which is really hateful. Well, I thought, well I'm not completely ignorant, at least I've seen something weird going on. I didn't think there was anything wrong with what the minister said just now, and Bai Su's reaction was normal.But the minister looked very disturbed, showing the expression that ordinary people only show after they say something wrong. He seemed to say a few words to cover up, but he didn't know how to say it, the situation was very ridiculous; from this we can see that he is actually quite naive, not old and cunning, and not very good at deception. Wu Luyuan obviously also noticed this embarrassing situation of his grandson, smiled, and said: "You have thought about it a long time ago, I don't believe it, it's nothing. Now that the two of them say the same thing, I still have the same doubts what." The minister smiled bitterly: "Do you still have doubts?" Wu Luyuan sighed: "Yes, after all, what exactly is this God of Destiny?" I feel very strange for Wu Luyuan to pursue it like this, because it is something that cannot be investigated deeply.I dare say that putting together all the smartest people in the world doesn't answer that question either. Why is he so eager to have a definite answer?Do you want to beg the god of fate to live forever?Thinking that he has everything in his life, and there is nothing else to pursue except immortality. After he asked this question, he looked at us and waited for an answer. Of course I don't have an answer, and Bai Su doesn't seem to be planning to say anything.Wu Luyuan waited for a while, but there was no answer from us, so he turned to his grandson and said, "Tell me what you said, and see what the two of them have to say." When Wu Luyuan said this, Bai Su and I naturally looked at the minister, and we saw that the minister's expression was even more embarrassed and a little annoyed, as if he didn't want people to know that he had thoughts about the god of fate, but his grandfather wanted him to say, It was very difficult for him. I can see this kind of demeanor, so there is no reason for Bai Su not to see it.But she pretended not to know at all, instead she said cheerfully: "It turns out that Mr. Minister has a deeper understanding, please tell, please tell." The more the minister didn't want to say it, the more Bai Su wanted him to say it - there must be a reason for it, but I couldn't think of it for a while. It seems that Bai Su won't tell me for the time being, I hope I have already guessed before he told me, so I pay more attention to observe. Under Bai Su's "request", the minister was actually "runned". Although he seemed reluctant, he had to speak up. He thought for a while, and said: "The God of Destiny is the God who rules and controls the fate of people. The fate of people is completely determined by him. People can't fight against fate, but they can't fight against him." Unless you don't believe in "fate" at all, what the minister said is perfectly acceptable. Originally, I wanted to nod my head to express my agreement, but I wanted to see what kind of tricks Bai Su was playing, so I didn't express it at all. I will see how Bai Su reacts first, and then I will make plans. After hearing this, Bai Su nodded repeatedly, expressing agreement. I saw Bai Su nodding, so I nodded too. The minister was very happy to see that we all agreed, and looked at his grandfather again. his actions.I saw some signs, the matter is obvious, the minister tried hard to convince his grandfather that the old man in the dream is the god of destiny and cannot be resisted.The role Bai Su is playing now is to make the minister expose this goal, and at the same time, she also contributes to the flames, making Wu Luyuan accept this point of view. Although I have seen this point, I still don't understand why this is so. But I have seen these signs, at least I don't have to let Bai Su sing a one-man show alone, and I can also contribute a little bit. So I said: "Fate seems very abstract. Many people don't believe it, but those who know it know its existence. But even if they know it for sure, they still can't explain why." My words attracted Bai Su's approving look, and I knew I did the right thing. The minister also breathed a sigh of relief, because these words, in my opinion, are convincing to Wu Luyuan.Obviously much stronger than by him.At this moment.I am also sure that the reason why Wu Luyuan came to us was to hear our opinions.
