Chapter 289: Grandma Keya's divination(1/2)
Grace asked in English: "Old lady, I want to divine my luck in love this year."
It's not like Grace is a love brain, Kassel Academy can still distinguish between the A-class elites who can join the Lionheart Club.
She only asked this question to find out. There was indeed something abnormal in this village. As a respected old man in this village, could Granny Keya's divination skills be a lie?
She already had a boyfriend, and they were childhood sweethearts. The relationship was very good and unbreakable. She deliberately pretended to be single and asked this question just to test him.
Besides, their task is very sensitive, so they can't just ask an old man like a village chief such questions as "Will our archeology go smoothly?" or "Will anyone go missing in the village tonight?"
If you want to relieve people's psychological defenses, it's best to enter the other person's psychological safety zone and ask questions that the other person can easily answer or often answer. This will make the other person feel comfortable and figure it out slowly.
This is taught in the psychology elective course at Kassel College, and it is said that it is also very effective in relationships. Many girls take this course. The professor is Toyama Masashi.
"Little girl, grab a handful of corn from the basin. You can grab as much corn as you like."
Grandma Keya placed the wooden basin in front of Grace.
Grace closed her eyes and grabbed a small handful of corn from the tub.
"Okay, you can let go and just sprinkle it in front of me."
Grandma Keya guided and said.
Grace let go, and dozens of corns fell on the ground in front of Granny Keya.
Lu Chen also watched this scene with great interest. He originally did not believe in divination by ghosts and gods, but he had encountered too many extraordinary events and was not sure that Granny Keya was a liar.
Grandma Keya used her wrinkled and dry hands to push open the corns on the ground again and again, four at a time, mumbling something in her mouth, as if she was counting or deducing something.
In the end, Granny Keya finished dividing the corn, there were 31 corns in total, and one group of 4 corns made up 7 groups of 3 corns.
Granny Keya suddenly raised her head and looked at Grace, which made Grace's heart tremble inexplicably. It was not because of her poor mental quality, but because she was glanced at by an old witch-like creature in such a dim environment.
, straight forward, really penetrating.
"Little girl, this is so bad. God told me that your boyfriend who has been with you for many years has cheated on you. He may be having sex with other girls in school right now."
Grandma Keya's voice was gloomy.
Grace was a little angry and wanted to say that Keya's mother-in-law was a liar, but the other party not only told her that she had a boyfriend, but also judged that her boyfriend was a childhood sweetheart, which made her a little panicked.
"But don't worry, I have a bottle of potion here. As long as you go back and give it to your boyfriend, he will always be loyal."
Grandma Keya took down a small wooden bottle from the shelf behind her. Due to the humidity, the walls of the bottle were somewhat moldy.
"Forget it...I don't need it."
Grace shook her head and stepped back.
"Zero, why do I feel... the old lady seems to have been right?"
Lu Mingfei asked Ling in a low voice, and Grace glared at him after hearing this.
Lu Chen was also a little curious. Could it be that Granny Keya really has some "righteousness"?
"Anyone else want to try?"
Grandma Keya put away the bottle, not caring that Grace rejected her "kindness", and looked at the other girls.
Another girl in the team, Qinano, took a step forward and said, "I also want to divine luck in love."
She is a new student sent by the Inuyama family to Cassel Academy this year. After the fate of the Sheqi Hachi family was cut off, she and Cassel have entered an unprecedented honeymoon period.
On the other side, Ling glanced at Granny Keya and said in a low voice: "She may be a liar because she didn't feel the fluctuations in the power of the Word Spirit."
"But she seemed to have hit the mark just now about Grace."
Eriyi was also a little curious. This was her first time seeing fortune telling.
Ling shook his head, "It's cold reading. It's not difficult to tell that we are students from our age. And Grace is very beautiful. People like this shouldn't worry about luck in love. They have a higher probability of having a boyfriend."
, as for 'being together for many years', this range is too broad. For people in love, as long as it is more than one year, they think it is many years."
Ling glanced at Grace and paused, "I don't know how long Grace and her boyfriend have been dating, but as long as it is more than two years, it can even be traced back to childhood sweethearts. People who accept divination will automatically make predictions.
.”
Seeing that Lu Chen and Eryi were also looking in her direction, she continued: "This kind of cold reading is the most famous in Senior Brother Lu's hometown. The more classic saying is to judge the parents of the seeker," "Father is more important than mother."
'Death first', benefiting from the profoundness of Chinese culture, can be interpreted in many ways. No matter what you say, the fortune teller can give a reasonable explanation, unless your parents died together."
"Ah...so that's it."
Eriki looked a little disappointed. She thought she had met a real divination master. She also thought...
Zero saw Eriki's disappointed expression and added: "I just said it was possible. We only have one case of Grace, so we can't make an accurate judgment. After all, Granny Keya was right. I just inferred guilt."
At this time, Qinano's divination results also came out, and Granny Keya shook her head, "Poor, pathetic, lucky, lucky."
"Excuse me, mother-in-law, what does this mean?"
Kotono asked.
"The little girl lived in a high-pressure general environment before. Her previous life may not have been happy, and she may have died young, but the strange thing is that it seems that you have missed something in the trajectory of your destiny. You will be very lucky in the future. You will
When you meet the right lover."
Grandma Keya spoke more generally this time. She didn't even give a time frame for when she would meet love. She only said "you will meet her."
But Zero didn't come to a conclusion. Lu Chen looked at Qinno thoughtfully.
There may be something to the divination of Granny Keya. Qinno is well-dressed and a serious girl. From the surface, it doesn't appear that she was unhappy before.
Of course, these things may also be words used to fool people. After all, many people have troubles in their lives and feel pitiful. When others say this, they feel offended.
But there was a very crucial thing in Granny Keya's words, saying that Qinno's fate had been changed, which Lu Chen didn't think could be summed up in words.
And he was an outsider in this world. Without him, with Herzog's resourcefulness and forbearance, the Eight Sheqi Family might have been completely annihilated in the end.
In a sense, didn't he just change the tragic fate of the Sheqi family?
"Accept the good advice from my mother-in-law."
Qinano nodded and returned to his position. He explored the route twice, and it seemed that Granny Keya had told her right. For a while, no one knew whether this old lady was a clever liar or a real fortune teller.
The third one to come forward was Zero. She was the hardest to see through. No one could see through a poker face.
"I want to divine... love luck."
Surprisingly, Zero also said that he wanted to divine luck in love. According to the plan, they should ask some questions related to the task at this time to further test.
Without further ado, Zero grabbed a handful of corn and placed it in front of Granny Keya.
Granny Keya picked them up one by one, with a chrysanthemum-like smile on her face at the end, "Girl, don't embarrass yourself too much. Sometimes what you think is different from reality. It's better to cherish the truth."
Zero returned to his seat silently and did not respond to Granny Keya's words.
But in fact, she was secretly shocked. Maybe everyone present didn't notice a detail.
Granny Keya, this old man who is dying and looks like a liar and a witch, she just called herself different from Kotono and Grace, she is... girl.
When she raised her head, she saw Granny Keya giving her a vague look, and she became even more shocked. This was not a slip of the tongue or an accident.
The other party saw through his true age!
And how should we interpret the following words?
Unprecedented, she had always regarded herself as a cold tool, but now she wanted to continue asking for divination.
"Godzilla, I want to try it too."
Eriyi pulled off the corner of Lu Chen's clothes. She was very interested in this divination game and asked for Lu Chen's opinion.
"Just treat it as a game, don't take it seriously."
Lu Chen touched Eli Yi's head, fearing that Granny Keya would say something bad and affect Eli Yi's mood, because he knew that Eli Yi could easily be frightened and gullible.
"What a beautiful little girl."
Grandma Keya looked at Eriyi and praised her, then put the tub forward.
Eriyi felt a little uneasy and glanced at Godzilla secretly, "I...I also want to divine luck in love."
Lu Chen was okay, but the other three boys present began to wonder if the girls had forgotten their real mission. They had been divining love for four times in a row. Can they divine and test the old lady and mission-related matters?
Moreover, Lu Mingfei especially wanted to complain, Senior Sister Uesugi, what else can you do for divination? Even if you abuse dogs in the academy, you will abuse them when they come out?
Granny Keya picked up the corns that Eriyi had spilled one by one. The expression on her face changed from the initial calmness to the wrinkles at the back. Finally, her eyes showed doubts. She raised her head and stared at Eriyi.
, that kind of shock was like seeing a dead person who should not have existed in this world.
"How is that possible? Strange."
Grandma Keya whispered in Mayan.
"Old woman?"
Eriki looked nervous at the old woman's reaction and wanted to know the answer.
"Can I ask the girl's exact age?"
Grandma Keya asked rhetorically.
"I am eighteen years old this year and my birthday is December 25th."
