Why 1.34 cannot be the probability of some event?

1.34 cannot be the probability of an event because the range of possibility is 0 to 1. 0 is an impossible event and 1 is a certain event. There cannot be a possibility higher than certain so 1.34 is not possible.

What Key word do you associate with sequence of events and what rules of probability do you use?

The key word that I use is causality. However, you cannot use probability to determine causality. Even if two events are highly correlated, probability theory cannot tell whether event A is caused by event B, or event B is caused by event A, or that both are caused by some third event that is not even part of the study.
