Chapter: 2469
"Su Zhiyu's mom opened her mouth and said, 'Know-fish, don't be so extreme. If those scoundrels from the underworld really are hiding something from you, they would never tell you what they can't see through. They'll just give you some ambiguous or unfounded words.'"
"For example, if you're looking for someone, he might say that the person is in a northwest direction and then leave it up to you to find them, regardless of whether you succeed or not. It has nothing to do with him.'
"Since Master Lai can directly say what he can't see through, I believe this must not be an excuse.'
Su Zhiyu didn't buy into this, but at this moment, she didn't want to argue with her family too much, so she had to reluctantly say, 'If even Master Lai can't see through it, I'll just rely on myself and find it slowly.'"
Duzhenhua hurriedly said, "Know-fish, listen to grandma's advice. Don't look for that person anymore.'"
"What?!"
Su Zhiyu furrowed her brow, resolute in saying, "Grandfather, I'm looking for someone who saved my brother and me's lives! He's a lifesaver to us. No matter what, I'll definitely keep searching, even if I don't find him. And even if I don't find him, I won't give up!"
Duzhenhua spoke urgently, "This isn't about whether you'll find or not find that person. This is about the danger and uncertainty of your future ahead!"
Su Zhiyu questioned curiously, "What's my future got to do with this?"
Duzhenhua spoke sincerely, "According to Master Lai, your character clashes with his, and his is far stronger and higher than yours. If you don't find him, it's not a big deal. But once you find him, you'll be like a moth flying into flames. You yourself will get hurt!"
Su Zhiyu immediately refuted, "Grandfather, I mean no offense to your generation, but those words from Master Lai are just pure nonsense!"
As she spoke, she continued without hesitation, "The Lord who saved my life, if what Master Lai says is true, then why didn't he burn me to death, and instead, actually saved me? I think Master Lai is just speaking empty words!"
Duzhenhua sighed and said, "Ah! Fate is like this. You can't change the numbers. He saved you in the past. Master Lai's prophecy is about the future!"
Su Zhiyu responded without hesitation, "I don't care about what will or won't happen in the future. I only know that he saved my life, and I want to find him and thank him face-to-face. It's as simple as that, even if our destinies are clashing. If it means giving up this life, so be it!"
Duzhenhua rarely scolded sternly, "Know-fish! Stop talking nonsense here! Master Lai's words are not to be taken lightly. You must listen!"
"Know-fish, the I Ching Eight Trigrams are the ultimate wisdom of our ancestors, not some superstition or feudal mysticism, and Master Lai is the most renowned feng shui master in the world today. You must have a reverent heart to grasp it!"
Duzhenhua then said sternly, "In my opinion, you shouldn't continue looking anymore. Let's stop here!"
Su Zhiyu was furious, her eyes red with anger, and exclaimed, "Mom, how can you also believe in these things? You're a graduate of a prestigious university, for goodness' sake! You should only believe in science!"
Duzhenhua said seriously, "Know-fish, how do you know the I Ching Eight Trigrams are not scientific?"
Su Zhiyu blurted out, "It's all just feudal mysticism and superstition. What's scientific about it? If there's a basis for it, why don't they just tell me where to find my benefactor? Instead, they're always talking about conflicting destinies and flying fireflies, which I don't want to believe!"
Duzhenhua said sternly, "The I Ching Eight Trigrams are an ancient philosophy that takes the natural world, stars, and vast oceans as its reference. Through long-term observation, learning, and summarization, it has developed into a system of thought that can even be considered scientific!"
"Have you ever thought about why the Mayans could accurately calculate the timing of solar eclipses over 3,000 years ago? And what's more, their calculated calendars are almost identical to those calculated by modern science, with an error that is only one day off every 5,000 years. Do you think this is also superstition?"
"Even more impressive is that they calculated the calendar and it matches perfectly with modern scientific calculations. The error is so small that it's only off by one day every 5,000 years. Do you still think this is superstition?"
Duzhenhua said with a hint of frustration, "There's no practical basis for this kind of thing. I'm definitely not going to believe it!"
Du Haiqing sighed and continued sternly, "Young people like you today have a more objective understanding of Eastern and Western cultures, without blindly favoring one over the other. You look at issues with an open mind and engage in critical thinking. However, for those born after 1990 or 2000, Western culture has taken on an absolute dominant position." JrNovels.com
