Chapter 162: Reasons For Their Interactions
She nodded and raised her head slightly. “There are many explanations passed down from the family! But none of them are accurate. Actually, only a few core members of the family knew about the situation at that time! I also heard it from my mother-in-law!”
“A few decades ago, it was still a turbulent era when the warlords were divided into factions and the regime changed! On the other hand, the business of the Fu family was doing extremely well. On that day, the Old Master who was in power had just returned from celebrating the New Year for a general when he was stopped by a monk at the entrance of his house. The monk only said a few words and was respectfully invited into the manor by the Old Master as a distinguished guest
“I heard that he only asked a few Old Masters who were at home to accompany him and spoke for quite a while in the ancestral hall! My mother-in-law doesn’t know the details either! But later on, I heard the Old Master ramble on and on. He said something like, ‘The true dragon’s life is hidden in the palace, and the glory of the world is scattered!\'”
Si Mi frowned and didn’t quite understand what she was saying. She said, “This doesn’t seem like a good thing either. What does it mean, Grandma?”
There were tears in the corners of Grandma Fu’s eyes. “Yes! That’s a bad omen. You’ll know when you see the decline of the Fu family! This monk was here to give a prediction for our family!”
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became a little solemn. This was the first time Fu Zhen had heard this legend so completely!
“To attribute the decline of a family to a single sentence from a monk, isn’t this a little too absurd!” Si Mi asked in return, “Why didn’t you beat up this monk who spoke such rebellious words and even treat him as an honored guest?”
Fu Zhen looked at Si Mi’s confused little face and smiled lightly. “Listen to Grandma slowly. There’s an explanation for everything!”
“It is absurd! But, everything he said has been fulfilled!” Grandma Fu sighed.
“The rise and fall of the Fu family seemed to have happened in just a few short decades. The political situation had fluctuated, causing people to be plunged into misery and suffering!”
“Some of the brothers of the Fu family died in a hail of bullets, some lost their lives and fought for benefits, and some even died unexpectedly! When the Old Master was in his later years, his illness was lingering, and he had been trying his best to support the entire Fu family. Otherwise, he would not have been able to withstand so many drastic changes and his brothers leaving one after another!”
“Since this Master Ran is so powerful and can predict the future, why don’t you ask him for a solution? To avoid these calamities?” Si Mi asked.
Grandma Fu smiled bitterly and said, “Of course I did! Fate and calamities are determined by heaven. It’s impossible to avoid them. The decline of the Fu family is determined by fate! But Master Ran was still kind-hearted. In the end, he still pointed out a bright path for the family head!”
She looked at Fu Zhen, who had been listening to them in silence. “That’s Fu Zhen! He said that he has a ‘true dragon’s fate and obeys the fate of heaven.’ He is a person who can achieve great things!”
Si Mi turned around and looked at Fu Zhen with surprise. That was why his grandma had finally come back after saying so much!
“So, what does this have to do with Fu Zhen’s nightmare?”
Grandma still looked at Fu Zhen and said, “According to Master Ran, the decline of the Fu family in the past few decades is to change the balance of fate with the descendants of the Fu family!”
Si Mei was shocked. Fu Zhen was so overbearing! He wanted to use the decades of prosperity of the Fu family to change the balance of fate with his own fate?
“He said that when Fu Zhen was young, the things that he suffered were mostly due to fate! His fate was overbearing and his fate was strong. When he was young, he couldn’t suppress himself and couldn’t suppress other filth! Therefore, he asked me to go to the temple often and ask for a few pieces of pacifying talismans and peace talismans for Fu Zhen! This time, I’m afraid it’s time again! Those filthy things have found my grandson again!”
She smiled and said, “It’s alright! I’ll go up the mountain tomorrow to look for Master Ran!”
Si Mi nodded slightly and asked, “Is this Master Ran still alive? Then, how old is he?”
Grandma looked at her and smiled. “At this time, the flower armor has reopened!”
“Master Yuan is 120 years old! Oh my god!” Si Mi exclaimed in surprise.
“The world is so big, and there are all kinds of strange things! We can’t not believe in the theory of fate and all kinds of weird things, and we can’t completely believe in it! Our Fu family can be considered to have a long history, and we have many secrets that are not worthy of being told to outsiders!”
Grandma Fu glanced at Fu Zhen, and Fu Zhen turned his head to avoid her gaze. She smiled bitterly. “I shouldn’t have said so much to Mi Mi, but Fu Zhen actually wanted to be honest with you. I don’t need to worry about you! It’s fine if I tell you!”
