Chapter 1: Destiny

The first thing I want to tell you is that this is a true story...

This is an era of rapid technological development. Most of the miracles that the ancients could not imagine have now been realized. Technology has achieved everything, and people no longer believe in the existence of fate.

But when we think destiny is illusory, it actually exists. Destiny dominates our lives, accompanying every turning point in our lives, and determines our wealth, honor, disgrace, joys and sorrows.

Many people have discovered that even though they struggle hard throughout their lives, they cannot escape the shackles of fate.

But in ancient legends, there was once a person who could adjust his aura through spiritual stones and thus change the fate of living beings. This person's name was Jiang Ziya.

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………

"Grandpa, what does this shop sell? Why is it always closed?" a child asked his grandfather, pointing to a small shop called Fateful Hall in the residential area of ​​Z City.

"This is a fortune-telling parlor. It's a place where people with magical powers ask gods to peer into the sky and help people divine their destiny~~", the old man answered in an old voice.

"Fortune telling? Haha~~, I know, my mother said that there are no gods in this world, people have no control over their destiny, and fortune tellers are all liars!",

The child laughed innocently.

"Shh! Don't talk nonsense." The old man immediately covered the child's mouth.

"Let me tell you, life is destined, don't dare to talk nonsense, be careful..., you will offend the gods...".

The wind chimes outside the door kept swaying, making a sweet sound. Fateful Hall has not opened its doors for more than a month. Chen Zhi has long been accustomed to staying in the dark during this time. He feels that it is very quiet in the dark.

Things that I couldn't figure out before are now clear to me.

His father's original room was turned into a darkroom by him, and all traces of his father's original room were taken away by Chen Zhiqing.

Now there was nothing in the dark room except a large sofa. Chen Zhi closed the door. In the dark room, the young body on the ground was glowing with phosphorescence.

Phosphorus is a mineral secreted by the human body just after death. It can make the corpse very conspicuous in the dark. The corpse was dripping with water, its eyebrows were frowned, and its livid face was full of sorrow. It seemed that even though it was dead,

He can't forget the hurt this world has brought him.

"What should I do with you..." Chen Zhi looked at the corpse at his feet indifferently, with an expression that was close to sympathy on his face.

Chen Zhi is in his twenties and is the owner of the "Fate and Fate Hall" numerology parlor. This is his hometown Z City, a small city in the Northeast famous for its steel production. Everything in the city smells of steel.

What is different from other numerology centers is that Chen Zhi is a person who truly possesses magical power. This is unbelievable in modern society and no one would believe it.

Before that, Chen Zhi once had an unknown and glorious past. Those glories could almost burn out everything in the world. He had fought, sacrificed, and been weak, but he finally discovered that people can never

Even if he gets rid of the shackles of fate, he will never be able to get rid of the torment of guilt in his heart.

Finally, those brilliance gradually faded, and Chen Zhi came back, living alone in this small city, staying in this Fate Hall, silently recalling the past, and soothing the scars on his soul.

The late autumn in the Northeast is always mixed with icy rain. Chen Zhi is sitting alone in the hall. As usual, the outside of Fate Hall is always deserted and there is not a single guest in sight.

Fateful Hall is a double-story residential building converted into a small loft. There are some display cabinets in the lobby on the first floor, and the bedrooms on the second floor. In the display cabinets on the first floor, there are some colorful bracelets made of various beads.

It looks no different from the ones sold at street stalls.

But there are a few strings of beads covered with thick glass covers, with mantra pictures painted on the underside of the glass covers, and a transparent barrier glowing light blue on the outside. These beads are so transparent that no one can see them except Chen Zhi.

Chen Zhi knows the value of these beads. These are spiritual stones, the most precious things in the world. They can turn an ordinary person into a star that attracts much attention overnight, and can also make people fall into hell in an instant.

It was getting dark very quickly today, and there were gradually fewer pedestrians in the community. Only the street lights were shaking, but Chen Zhi opened the rolling shutter door. He was waiting for someone to come to him.

Sure enough, when it was completely dark outside, the doorbell rang outside. Through the transparent glass window, Chen Zhi saw a thin boy shivering like a leaf in the cold wind.

The boy was fourteen or fifteen years old. He was very thin and pale, as if he was stunted. His hair was stuck to his face due to the rain, and his eyes were melancholy and empty, as if the sunshine in the world could not illuminate the darkness in his heart.

After the boy came in, he seemed a little embarrassed at first. He kept rubbing his hands and looked at Chen Zhi in panic.

"You're here to see me, right? What's the matter?" Chen Zhi sat on the sofa, holding a cigarette and looking at the embarrassed boy.

"I am..., no... no", the boy was nervous and incoherent, his face turned red, and finally he took out a card from his pocket.

It was a very ordinary business card advertisement with the slogan:

"Fate Hall! It can solve all your problems!"

"This is..., this is what I found in my schoolbag just now. I don't know who put it in it~~"

The boy muttered, his shy face turned red, and he did not dare to raise his eyes to look at Chen Zhi.

"It's not important~~" Chen Zhi looked at the boy and put the cigarette on the ashtray.

"But just like what is written on that card, I can indeed help you solve some troubles, but you need to pay a little price!".

The boy immediately became vigilant after hearing Chen Zhi's words. In today's society, even a high school student knows to beware of scammers.

"I..., I'm just a student, I don't have much money!"

"The price I'm talking about is not money..." Chen Zhi replied,

"And you don't need to worry about this now, you just need to tell me now, what is your trouble?".

"I……",

The boy looked at Chen Zhi with his eyes wide open. After hesitating for a long time, his thin and yellow face showed a mixture of shame and inferiority.

"I..., I want to become braver..., I, I don't want to be bullied anymore~~".

"Courage?",

Chen Zhi looked at him with a smile,

"Of course, people will encounter various problems when they live in the world. This is determined by your aura and your destiny. Your destiny is innate, but if you need it, I can help you a little bit.

A little adjustment…”.
