Su Chengfeng respectfully invited Mai Chengxing to sit on the sofa. After he sat down, he sighed and said in pain, "Hey! Uncle Mai, you must help me this time!"
Mai Chengxing nodded, and said seriously: "Since I have come here, I will naturally do my best, so you must tell me everything exactly."
Su Chengfeng responded, and sighed: "In the final analysis, it's all my fault for being stupid and making some irrational decisions"
As he said that, Su Chengfeng roughly told Mai Chengxing about Su Zhifei and Su Zhiyu's brother and sister being kidnapped in Japan, when Su Ruoli destroyed the Matsumoto family, and when he himself betrayed Su Ruoli and assassinated Du Haiqing. over again.
After finishing speaking, he asked worriedly: "Uncle Mai, do you think I will be punished for this?"
Mai Chengxing waved his hand, and said seriously: "Chengfeng, you are my nephew, so I won't come with you to make mysteries, just remember, in this world, no matter from the perspective of feng shui, , or from a scientific point of view, there is no so-called retribution at all."
Su Chengfeng asked in surprise: "Why? The Taoist jurisprudence you believe in, don't you talk about reincarnation and retribution?"
Mai Chengxing shook his head and said: "What you are talking about is Buddhism, besides, our Fengshui metaphysics is not from the Taoist lineage, we are Yijing Bagua and Qimen Dunjia."
Su Chengfeng hurriedly asked: "Then you just said that there is no karma, is this true?"
Mai Chengxing smiled and said: "In my opinion, it's true, but it doesn't matter if you don't believe it. I'll give you a detailed review of our views in Feng Shui Metaphysics. It's just a discussion."
Su Chengfeng hurriedly said: "Please tell me."
Mai Chengxing paused slightly, and said: "Let me ask you, according to the theory of karma, those who do evil will be severely punished, and those who do good will be rewarded, right?"
Su Chengfeng nodded: "According to them, it is true."
Mai Chengxing asked: "Then let me ask you, some babies die when they are born, and their life is just beginning. There is no evil, no good, why doesn't they even have a chance to grow up healthily?"
Su Chengfeng showed embarrassment: "ThisII can't say it well"
Mai Chengxing nodded, and asked again: "Then let me ask you again, why do some people do good deeds all their lives, but their fate is so unfortunate?"
Having said that, Mai Chengxing sighed with some melancholy, and said slowly: "When I was young, it happened to coincide with the Great War in the Central Plains, and my father moved his family from the Central Plains to Yanjing to avoid the flames of war."
"At that time, my family lived in Mao'er Hutong, and there was a woman next door. She ate fast and recited Buddha's name every day, remembering the way of doing good deeds."
"Her husband died young, and she worked so hard to bring up her three sons and let them start a family and start a business. But when she was old, none of the three sons took care of her."
"The three daughters-in-law came to the house in turn to beat and scold them in order to fight for the family property. They even deliberately took away the little rations she had every time they came, and even smashed the water tank to be satisfied. They just hoped that she would die soon. , so as to occupy that old house.¡±
"Although the three sons are not likely to do anything to her, they often come over with cynicism. They even pointed at her nose and scolded her why she couldn't be like the old man next door, be more sensible and die soon."
"Not only did the old woman not have enough to eat, she didn't have enough clothes to wear, and she shed tears all day long. Although she was not blinded by crying, her eyesight was getting worse and worse. In addition, she couldn't light the lamp oil. Every time the sun went down, she couldn't see her fingers. Life is suffering."
"But she never expected any of her sons' conscience to discover, and finally froze to death on that extremely cold winter day in Yanjing!"
"On the day of the funeral, the cries of the three sons could be heard across three alleys, but everyone could tell that it was just a scene for outsiders to see. After the play, they sold their mother happily. The ancestral house where they live, after the money is divided, it will be scattered."
"Tell me, if there is karma, why did this old woman do good deeds all her life, but also suffer all her life?"
Su Chengfeng thought for a while, and said seriously: "Maybe it is a debt owed in the previous life, and I will pay it in this life?"
Mai Chengxing sneered, and said disdainfully: "Only people who can't understand the law of events will use such rhetoric to impose explanations. If everyone believes in the previous life or the next life, then you might as well lend all your family's money to me. Me, I will pay you back double in my next life, will you agree?"
"This" Although Su Chengfeng knew that Mai Chengxing was just joking and giving an example, he began to agree with Mai Chengxing's statement in his heart.
At this moment,Mai Chengxing continued: "In the same way, some people are full of evil, what is the result? Not only do they start well and end well, but also future generations will suffer from it!"
"It's like the old woman I just mentioned. After her tragic death, her three sons were lucky. One managed to flourish in business, the other became a warlord, and the other went to Nanyang to work hard. The descendants are still alive today. He is still a well-known entrepreneur, good people did not enjoy a day of blessing, but bad people blessed his family for several generations, don¡¯t you think this karma is reversed?¡±
Su Chengfeng was speechless for a moment.
Su Shoudao on the side couldn't help asking: "Grandpa Mai, if, as you said, karma does not exist at all, then what is the reason for these two extremes in this family?"
Mai Chengxing smiled slightly: "Shoudao, you are asking the point, why? If you don't understand the rules, you will just raise your head and curse, God has no eyes, and add a sentence of 'good people don't live long , harm will last for a thousand years', but have you ever thought about it, if there is a karmic reincarnation, this sentence is simply impossible to hold true, because karmic reincarnation will not make good people not live long, nor will it make harm a thousand years, which itself is a A paradox of contradictions."
As he said that, Mai Chengxing changed the subject, and said again: "But! If you can understand this law, you will know that in fact, all of this has nothing to do with karma, but comes from the different fates of each family. .¡±
Su Chengfeng hurriedly said: "Uncle Mai, how do you explain fate?"
Mai Chengxing explained: "Fate is numerology, the principle of life, or the law of life."
"My father once said that the old lady was born with the fate of a lone star of the evil spirit. Although she does good deeds all day long, no matter how much she does good, it will be difficult to change her fate."
"To use the simplest analogy, no matter how many carrots you eat, you cannot become a rabbit, because these are two completely different logics."
"You can't be self-righteous and think that all rabbits like to eat carrots, and as long as you eat more carrots, you will naturally become a rabbit."
Su Chengfeng and Su Shoudao father and son nodded thoughtfully.
Mai Chengxing continued: "The lone star of Tiansha not only conquers her husband and wife, but also her descendants, and the worst thing is that she not only conquers others, but she herself cannot escape the fate of having no relatives and being lonely in her later years, so she has A lifetime of suffering, and a lifetime of sin."
"Although her three sons are unfilial in every way, in terms of fate, their own career prospects are also imperceptibly restricted by the old woman's fate."
"Because the old woman died early, the three of them didn't die because of it, and this gave them the opportunity to soar into the sky later."
"If the three of them are all filial sons, and take their mothers to take turns to fulfill their filial piety, then maybe these three sons will all die young due to various reasons, and maybe they will all die before the old woman in the end."
"This, although it sounds absurd and unbelievable, but this is the real fate!" (Remember the website URL: www.hlnovel.com
