After hearing this, the other people in the house also looked over curiously.

"Oh? I see? Miss Yang, I hope you can explain it to us in detail!"

Deng Shentong looked very interested.

Fatty Xu laughed and said, "Master Deng, you believe in this, too? I thought people like you, who come from wealthy families and have received world-class educations, didn't believe in numerology and metaphysics!"

Deng Shentong glanced at Fatty Xu with a look of helplessness in his eyes.

"Quite the opposite. Speaking of which, you probably don't know this, but in this world, the higher the position, the more likely one is to believe in numerology and metaphysics."

"For example, our Deng family has a dedicated fortune teller."

"Let me tell you this, even if I want to get married, I have to calculate the other person's Zi Wei Dou Shu to see if they can produce good offspring."

Uncle You and Fatty Xu were both surprised, but Zhou Keer, Yang Siya and others did not show much change in expression.

They also come from the upper class and have heard about these things.

Deng Shentong explained to Fatty Xu and Uncle You, "Every large family has a dedicated fortune teller. For example, the Li family you're familiar with, one of their branches was able to accumulate immense wealth in Hong Kong Island, so they had a dedicated fortune teller to predict their fortunes."

"This is true for all the major families in the country. Even ordinary people, after coming into contact with the upper class, gaining wealth or official positions, will become obsessed with this."

"Because when you reach a certain level, you will understand one thing: all your success comes mainly from destiny, not your own efforts."

"When luck comes, heaven and earth are on your side; when luck is gone, heroes are helpless."

"You've studied hard for over a decade and worked incredibly hard, but you can't compare to someone who appears on TV once and then becomes a huge star. If you're destined to be an official, you don't need to turn over a single leaf."

Deng Shentong's explanation made Fatty Xu and Uncle You think deeply.

"If you say that, doesn't that mean individual effort is completely useless?"

Uncle You felt a little disappointed.

Deng Shentong shook his head.

"Not really. People often say that success is 70% destiny and 30% hard work."

"According to Zi Wei Dou Shu, the three factors that determine a person's destiny are heaven, earth, and man."

"Fate, geography, and human factors. Human factors account for one-third, so personal efforts can potentially change one's destiny."

Deng Shentong spoke very convincingly, just like a fortune teller setting up a stall.

But Zhang Yi believes this.

Because he knows that the world operates according to the will of the Creator, and individuals are just single machines outside the main server.

Deng Shentong looked at Yang Xinxin. "The Tui Bei Tu is a classic work of metaphysics and numerology. It has been analyzed by people throughout the dynasties. However, most of it is nonsense. Miss Yang, what are your thoughts?"

Yang Xinxin said, "When I learned that my brother was going to the North African country of Kadje, I suddenly felt something, and it was like an epiphany that I understood the hexagrams of the Tui Bei Tu."

She unfolded the hexagram in the air for everyone to see.

This hexagram depicts a burly man with his fists raised as if fighting.

There are also prophecies and eulogies below.

The prophecy said:

The gloomy haze means killing without a knife.

If ten thousand people survive, one person cannot escape.

Song said:

There was a soldier carrying a bow, who said, "I am an old man with white hair."

A golden sword is hidden in the east gate, and the warrior enters the imperial palace through the back door.

Everyone stared at these words for a long time, not understanding their meaning, and even less knowing what this had to do with Zhang Yi.

Just waiting for Yang Xinxin to explain.

Under the gaze of everyone, Yang Xinxin pointed at the pictures and text and began to interpret them.

"This time we are heading to Kaje Country to obtain Mammon's sealed artifact, the Spear of Longinus. Therefore, we are bound to come into conflict with Kaje Country's high-ranking officials."

"Dark and gloomy, killing without a knife. It might be referring to Mammon, because in the mythology of Huaxu Country, Mammon is called Zhulong. We all saw it during Chernobyl. He has the ability to block out the sky and the sun."

"But there's another explanation, which is the current situation in Kajie Country. The commander's rule is dark, so the world is gloomy."

"The most important thing is the next sentence. Ten thousand people will not die, but one person will not escape."

Deng Shentong listened carefully and gave his own opinion.

"You mean, killing one person and saving ten thousand people is right?"

He looked at Zhang Yi and asked in a questioning tone, "Does God want us to kill Commander Sion?"

Yang Xinxin said, "If you simply understand this sentence, there might be another meaning. And this is related to the power of faith."

"The Master of the Underworld has previously explained the power of faith to us. As long as the most devout believers make a vow and concentrate a large amount of weak power into one person, a powerful effect can be produced."

"So killing one person is equivalent to killing the power of ten thousand people."

A thoughtful look flashed in her eyes.

"Perhaps this represents the future. In wars between races, the winner is determined by the top Inhumans who concentrate all the resources of the race. If the top Inhumans are defeated, the entire race will be destroyed."

"If ten thousand people don't die, one person can't escape. In fact, if one person dies, ten thousand people can't have a good ending!"
