Yang Jie sincerely believed that he was blessed by his ancestors and that as long as he studied hard, he would be able to gain fame.
After returning home, I concentrated on reading in the study. I had never been so serious before.
The boy who stood next to him and polished his ink, that is, Jia Zhengjin's transformed Yang Lian, thought to himself that if he really kept working hard, he would be able to pass the exam smoothly on his own, so what kind of blessing would he need from his ancestors?
In the past, I have tried and failed. In fact, I just fished for three days and dried the net for two days. I have no motivation, right?
Could it be that I unintentionally inspired a scholar and gave him the possibility of walking on the glorious road?
Just as I was thinking about it, there was a gentle knock on the door, accompanied by the voice of the maid: "Master, take a rest and drink some soup?"
Yang Jie was really tired, so he put down the book in his hand and said, "Come in!"
"Yes!" A maid opened the door carefully, and another maid came in carrying a steaming ceramic bowl. "Someone in the village caught an old turtle. When the slave saw it, he bought it and made soup. It was just a supplement for the young master.
.”
"Okay! The old turtle soup is good!" Yang Jie smelled the fragrance and couldn't wait to say, "Yang Lian, go get a few small bowls. You three have worked hard, and the young master will give you a bowl each."
"Thank you so much, Master!!" The two maids beamed with joy and quickly thanked them.
Jia Zhengjin looked at the big turtle shell in the large ceramic bowl, and suddenly remembered the turtle shell divination technique he had obtained from fighting monsters before and learned.
If I hadn't seen this turtle shell, I would have almost forgotten this skill.
By the way, do you want to play with it?
I don’t know how effective turtle shell divination is or what it can mean.
When it comes to taking care of everything in the world, the people in the Four Heavenly Palaces probably don't count, right? After all, they are the masters of this world.
It’s just for fun, it doesn’t matter!
Thinking of this, he quickly ran to the kitchen to get three clean small bowls and came back, and then said to Yang Jie: "Master, this turtle shell looks interesting, can you give it to me?"
Yang Jie raised his head and looked at him, without thinking: "Take it, take it! But what are you going to do with this thing?"
"It's just fun to watch, just play around." Jia Zhengjin said with a smile.
Yang Jie is very kind to his two personal maids and book boy. These three people are considered his confidants, and he won't care at all if they want a turtle shell.
The personal maid and Jia Zhengjin's transformed scholar Yang Lian each got a small bowl of old turtle soup, and the remaining large bowl was all for Yang Jie to enjoy.
The two maids were happily enjoying the old turtle soup beside them, their eyes fixed on the young master.
Jia Zhengjin quickly drank the old turtle soup, excused himself to leave the study, and ran to the quiet backyard of the old house. After making sure that no one was around, he placed the turtle shell he received from Young Master Yang Jie on the ground, and then took out a few copper coins from his virtual backpack.
, throw it in through the hole next to the turtle shell.
Try it and see how your skills go?
Pick up the turtle shell, open the skill interface and click on the skill.
[System] The prerequisites for using the turtle shell divination skill are met!
【System】You can perform divination!
[System] Please recite the content of the divination in your mind, and then gently shake the turtle shell to let the copper coins inside fall to the ground.
What is the content of divination?
Jia Zhengjin thought about it for a few seconds. It was a test anyway, so let's divine whether the bet between himself and Yue Lang would win?
After reciting silently in his mind, he held the turtle shell and shook it up and down a few times. The copper coins flew out from the head of the turtle shell and fell to the ground.
[System] Divination successful!
[System] Divination content - whether the bet with Yue Lang (???) can be won!
【System】Answer to the hexagram: The winner wins, the loser wins.
"What the hell?" Jia Zhengjin looked confused as he watched the hexagram answer.
The winner wins, and the loser also wins. Isn’t it ambiguous?
If you win, you win, but why do you win if you lose? What’s the logic?
Also, is it you who wins in the end? It doesn’t show that!
So did he win, or did Yue Lang win?
Does this result mean that the winner wins and the loser also wins, or does he win regardless of winning or losing?
These two explanations are two different results!
Sure enough, fortune-telling and other things are all based on deception!
Even the system skills are doing things that people can’t understand.
After thinking for a moment, I decided to give it another try.
He put the copper coins back into the turtle shell and thought about it for a while.
Then calculate whether you can successfully find someone who can kill you?
After thinking silently in his mind, he held the turtle shell and shook it again. When the copper coin fell to the ground, he nervously looked at the system prompts.
【System】Answer to the hexagrams: Life and death are determined by fate!
Isn't this nonsense?
This divination skill is indeed used by magicians, so all the answers are ambiguous, right?
Jia Zhengjin doubted the skill of turtle shell divination and felt a little disappointed.
However, I was still unwilling to give in and wanted to verify it again.
Maybe it can be considered a simple one? The ones just now were too difficult, that’s why this answer appeared?
Hmm~ So what should be considered good?
Right!
Didn't Young Master Yang Jie drink the old turtle soup? The old turtle soup contained turtle bones, even if he drank it, there would be as many turtle bones as there were.
After chanting silently, put the copper coins into the turtle shell and start shaking it gently.
Wait until the copper coins fall to the ground and then look at the system prompts.
【System】Answers to the hexagrams: the number of three or seven.
This time there was an accurate answer, no ambiguity.
Wait! This answer can’t be explained in multiple ways, right?
First of all, it may be a number of three or seven, that is, three or seven pieces. But think about it, the ceramic bowl is very big, and the turtle meat is also very large. It is impossible to finish the meal with only three or seven bones left. Excluded
This possibility;
Secondly, could it be that there are thirty-seven bones just like the literal meaning?
Wrong! It seems that the word "three seven" should be the same as "two eight" in "two eight years old". It does not refer to twenty-eight. In ancient times, when a girl was said to be twenty-eight years old, it actually refers to two hundred and eighty-six, saying that she is sixteen years old.
.
So three-seven and thirty-seven should be different, it refers to three-seven-twenty-one?
So, the old turtle’s bones might be twenty-one?
Of course, we can't rule out the system's own answer format, maybe it means thirty-seven?
Of course, no matter which answer it is, it is okay to target one of them. If the numbers come out completely different, then this divination technique is useless and is completely a magic skill!
To prove its effectiveness, of course you need to verify it yourself.
After putting away the turtle shell, Jia Zhengjin waited until Young Master Yang Jie finished drinking the old turtle soup, waited outside the study for the maids to bring it out, and quickly went up to ask them to count the number of old turtle bones for him.
The two maids felt confused and couldn't figure out what this was doing.
However, he and Yang Lian had a good relationship, and they were as close as siblings, so they counted the bones in front of him.
He quickly came to the conclusion that after drinking the old turtle soup, the number of small bones obtained was twenty-one.
It happened to match 3721, and the divination turned out to be accurate!
Is it a coincidence? Or is it really an accurate prediction?
But if this is accurate, what do the previous two ambiguous answers mean?
After much thought, I really can’t figure it out. (To be continued)
