A person's fate is mainly in their own hands.
—Bacon
The Republic of China period was a relatively special period due to warlord forces
Chambers fight
Turmoil and war disasters often broke out, and the people lived
dire straits
In.
Although the people of the Republic of China period have been
The people's wisdom is just beginning
But for many things still do not have their own independent opinion, comparison
It is easy for people to follow the clouds and blindly follow the trend.
It happened during this period
A "demon"-like being
Under his vigorous packaging, he became a "living immortal" in people's hearts during the war and chaos of the Republic of China, swindling and deceitful.
Above all, this living immortal not only deceived the masses, but also
Mixed with warlords and politicians
, and even become the rulers behind their backstage.
Du Yuesheng, a well-known tycoon in Shanghai, once used to be a living immortal
The horse is the head of the horse
He who listens to it and believes in it is regarded as a god.
So what happened to the living immortal in the end? Who is his last name, and where is he?
Born ordinary "living immortals"
In 1883, in the home of an ordinary household in Weiyuan County, Sichuan Province, there was a cry of a baby boy, and when his parents were happy, no one present thought that this baby boy would make the Sichuan warlord become his subordinate in the future.
And stir up the whole political world
。
This baby boy is the living immortal mentioned in the opening chapter: Liu Congyun, Liu Congyun was born in a chaotic world, and his parents still raised him with his own hands.
Liu Congyun's parents still hoped that their children could read and be reasonable, so they exhausted their family wealth and sent Liu Congyun to a private school.
Liu Congyun has some culture, but the culture is also limited, not at all to the point of proficiency in numerology, because Liu Congyun spent only a few years in the academy in total.
After Liu Congyun finished his studies, he entered a private school and became a teacher, who was supposed to be a respectable profession. Not only can you earn money to support your family but you can also cultivate a pillar, which is the best of both worlds.
But in the chaotic Republic of China, Mr. Teaching received a meager salary and lived
Precarious
The days of fear.
In view of this situation, Liu Congyun, who has not succumbed to fate since childhood
I started to think about it
One day, Liu Congyun passed by a fortune teller stall, and the fortune teller and Liu Congyun talked about two sentences
The more we talk, the more speculative we become
Liu had an idea after returning home from Yun.
The next day, Liu Congyun specially passed by the fortune teller booth and saw that the fortune teller was counting and measuring words, and the other party was very convinced.
Liu Congyun studied the art of learning from his teacher at that time, and followed this fortune teller to learn "metaphysics", in fact, he learned the method of deceiving the public, just to earn more silver.
Under the teaching of the fortune teller, Liu Congyun mastered some basic fortune telling knowledge and deception.
At this time, Liu Congyun resigned from his job as a teacher and concentrated on the direction of fortune telling.
After careful consideration, Liu Congyun chose a zodiac auspicious day to open and calculate,
Official "debut"
The year of Liu Congyun's debut coincided with the year of the Xinhai Revolution.
With the outbreak of the Xinhai Revolution, the lives of the people were further affected, and many people completely lost hope in the warlords and pinned their hopes on fate.
At this time, Liu Congyun's fortune-telling stall business was as good as a day, and Liu Congyun also posed with full style.
Not only did he dress up as a Taoist priest and give himself the name "White Crane", but he also hired four male disciples, like protectors of the Left and Right, to surround him in the middle, and he himself
Sit with your eyes closed
, a pair
Calm and idle in the form of a god
Such a position naturally makes many people believe in three points after seeing it.
Before Liu Congyun's fortune telling, he had actually passed on the disciples' eight characters and interpersonal relationships with the people nearby
Inquired about an eight or nine inseparable from ten
The total number of people in Weiyuan County is also limited, so Liu Congyun counted one by one, and all said to the hearts of the people.
This uncertain prophetic technique really fooled many people, and people regarded Liu Congyun as the reincarnation of a god, honored him as "Liu Shenxian", worshiped him as a teacher, and regularly offered Liu Congyun property.
Break into the warlords
When Liu Congyun was at his most, there were more than 10,000 believers under his door, but Liu Congyun was not satisfied.
He has bigger ambitions
That is, relying on his many believers and connections, he slowly extended his hand to the warlords and politicians of the time.
One of the things that made Liu Congyun thoroughly penetrate into the warlord's interior was that the Sichuan warlord Liu Xiang was distressed by the seizure of a batch of firearms, at this time Liu Xiang sent his cronies to ask Liu Congyun, and Liu Congyun said that he should not care about this batch of firearms, and should focus on raising soldiers and deploy in advance.
After the cronies returned, they conveyed to Liu Xiang the meaning of the living gods, and this time Liu Xiang did not take advantage of the surprise warlords because of the advance replenishment of troops.
Thus turning defeat into victory
From then on, Liu Xiang worshiped under Liu Congyun and took Liu Congyun as his military master, and later the warlord forces in Sichuan became
A struggle between the two most powerful forces
, that is, Liu Xiang and Liu Wenhui.
When the two armies clashed, Liu Congyun's small warlords under the Cloud Gate helped Liu Xiang one after another, and Liu Wenhui had no choice but to seek peace.
Later, in a warlord melee, Liu Congyun cleverly borrowed power to let Liu Xiang defeat Liu Wenhui, and Liu Wenhui also succeeded
be sincerely convinced
Worship under Liu Congyun's door.
Liu Congyun's several times are actually due to the important information obtained through believers in the closed era
The blind cat meets the dead rat
The word of luck.
Unexpectedly, Liu Congyun became the strongest controller behind the Sichuan warlords, so that after the Red Army entered Sichuan in 1933, the warlords would obey the orders of a fortune teller and let him line up.
It's ridiculous
Flee to Shanghai and will not be able to die well
Where the fortune teller knows how to fight, the end must be a big defeat to the Red Army, Liu Congyun fled to Shanghai overnight, and then used Du Yuesheng's local forces to prepare
And then set off the waves
Liu Congyun still has some means, after successfully "brainwashing" Du Yuesheng several times in succession, Du Yuesheng, one of the three giants of Shanghai, took the lead
Became Liu Congyun's "horse boy"
Du Yuesheng not only personally arranged a residence for Liu Congyun on Nanjing Road, but also used his personal connections and influence to provide Liu Congyun in Shanghai
Fame.
But many acts of injustice will kill themselves, Liu Congyun finally
After joy comes sorrow
He used to make a living, but in the end he killed himself, and finally he was copied by the Shanghai Police Superintendent.
On the eve of liberation,
The Republic of China is at its end
Liu Congyun, who had nowhere to go, fled to Taiwan with the help of Du Yuesheng's big tree, but because of his homesickness, Liu Congyun, who returned to Sichuan, was arrested and imprisoned.
Liu Congyun was extremely heinous in his crime, and he was sentenced to death for several crimes and sentenced to death, with a two-year suspension of execution.
But who admits that before two years, Liu Congyun died on the way to medical parole.
A generation of "demons" cried out for their lives
epilogue:
If Liu Congyun had been a teacher at the beginning of the rules and regulations, I am afraid that he would have been able to spend this life safely, but he was not willing to be "plain" and had an incorrect heart
Finally, eat the consequences
In fact, people's fate is not so many days, as long as they work hard enough and are good enough, many times the fate is in our own hands.
The so-called fortune teller is nothing more than that
Fool yourself and hope that Mei will quench his thirst
。 eventually
Can't help us a bit in our real lives
And when everyone faces some charlatans, they must also keep a clear head and not be deceived.
