The two of them walked among the weeds. Shen Suanzi bent down from time to time and picked up a few more yarrows. It seemed that this kind of divination required a lot of yarrow.
"How to divine?"
"And what else do you want to divine?"
The war is about to come, and the entire Beifu Army is filled with tension.
General Xie Xuan led the classical battles and had rich experience. Under his leadership, the soldiers of Beifu were building fortifications in an orderly manner.
Including trenches and various facilities for defense, all are available.
In addition, Xie Xuan also brought craftsmen to hide in dark corners to build a strange chariot called the "Toad Chariot".
I heard that this kind of chariot is specially used to attack cities. It is General Xie's proud work, a fresh idea and a secret weapon.
From the beginning of construction, Xie Xuan erected a high wall outside the workshop and added a cover on it. Not only the people in Xiangyang City could not see the construction process in the workshop, but also other people in Beifu could not see the construction process in the workshop. I can't even see the whole picture of this toad truck clearly.
As for the aliens in Beifu, Wang Mi and Wang Langjun, not to mention the fire-proof, theft-proof Wang Mi, Xie Xuan would never let him see the construction process of the secret weapon.
"a lot of."
Shen Suanzi thought about it very seriously before speaking cautiously.
"It's just yarrow divination. The things that can be predicted are limited. I don't know if it can be accurate."
"It's all my fault that I left in a hurry when I left the city. I didn't bring all my treasures with me. Otherwise, I would have more things to relieve my boredom now."
Wang Mi followed Shen Suanzi to an open space. Suanliangzi did not rush to divination, but peeled off all the tassels at one end of a bunch of dogtail grass.
"It turns out that you do divination just to relieve your boredom!"
Wang Mi exclaimed that it was unbelievable that when she pretended to be a fortune teller in Xiangyang City to tell the fortunes of young ladies, she definitely looked like an expert, and she didn't seem to be doing it to relieve boredom.
This is what Wang Mi saw with his own eyes.
Shen Suanzi was also surprised: "If it's not to relieve boredom, what else could it be for? It can't be for piety and faith!"
"Don't you believe in divination and fortune telling?" Wang Mi was shocked.
Strange!
It's haunted!
In ancient times, there were still people who didn't believe in celestial phenomena and divination, yet they were actually women! It wasn't that Wang Mi had a limited thinking, it was just that he had never seen it before.
Shen Suanzi blinked his eyes and scoffed: "Of course I don't believe it."
"Let me tell you, the more you do divination and fortune-telling, the less you believe in it. Think about it, there are only a few types of divination, but you have to face so many fortune-tellers of all kinds every day. Just say it is divination, and you can calculate many of the same hexagrams every day. Can you say that people who calculate the same hexagrams have the same fate?"
"Of course not. Besides, fortune tellers all know that those so-called explanations of fate are just based on the words of those who come to ask for fortunes."
"Most of them are fabrications, half truths and half lies. Wouldn't it be weird if the people who fabricated these lies could still believe in the celestial hexagrams?"
Shen Suanzi's eloquent words changed Wang Mi's impression of her drastically.
"Are you saying that all those fortune-telling stories, from the past to the present and to the future, are all false?" Wang Mi couldn't believe his ears.
Although as a modern time traveler, Wang Mi does not believe in these gods and ghosts, but he has always believed in one sentence, that is, respect ghosts and gods and stay away from them. He still believes that there must be some unreasonable things in this world. The mysterious power known to man.
The same goes for fortune telling.
Just because you don't know how to calculate doesn't mean that others don't know how to calculate. Moreover, Wang Mi has always believed that in ancient times, there should be more people who were good at fortune telling.
For example, those masters who are good at Feng Shui and numerology, Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng, aren't they all from the Tang Dynasty? Anyone who dares to refute what they calculated is very effective.
But I didn't expect that a little girl magician, outside Xiangyang City, would deny this magic.
Is there anything more magical and incredible than this?
"I dare not say that it is all false, but at least the fortune tellers I know always speak with half truth and falsehood, and there are more falsehoods."
"I see."
"But since you don't believe it, why do you still do divination?"
Shen Suanzi grasped the bald yarrow in his hand and made it into a small bunch, not knowing what to do.
"As I said just now, it's just for fun."
"When I have nothing to do on weekdays, I just use this to pass the time. In fact, many masters are like this."
"Give!"
"You try it too!"
Without any warning, Shen Suanzi suddenly held all the yarrow in front of Wang Mi's eyes. Wang Mi didn't understand: "Are you asking me to do your fortune telling?"
Garlic nodded lightly: "Yes, this is the simplest divination method, draw yarrow, and then use the length of the yarrow to predict good or bad luck."
"Although the method is simple, it is easy to operate. Yarrow can be found everywhere in the fields."
It turned out that this was an operation method, and Wang Mi understood it. It was the same principle as modern little children who like to pick up the stems of leaves to draw lengths.
Bet big, bet small. I didn't expect that the tool used by ancient people to draw long and short was actually a dog's tail grass.
"What do you want to divine?" Suddenly, Wang Mi was very curious about this question.
What exactly does she want to measure?
Wang Mi opened his eyes a little brighter and stared at the little lady with a smile.
Shen Suanzi's lips curved: "Even within five days, will there be a war in Xiangyang City?"
"Are you also paying attention to the war in Xiangyang?" Wang Mi looked at her with surprise in his eyes, and Suan Zi replied very calmly: "Of course, if I wasn't concerned about the situation in Xiangyang City, why would I send you news several times?"
That's right. This question seems to be biased. Wang Mi was very sensible and did not continue the topic.
"How should it be calculated?"
"What is considered good and what is bad?"
Shen Suanzi pouted and thought about it seriously. Wang Mi suddenly felt that she had done this action at the Gua stalls in Xiangyang City.
But at that time, Shen Suanzi was wearing a small crown and a big fan in his hand, so it was impossible to tell that he was actually a girl.
However, now, the appearance has obviously not changed, and the clothes are similar. However, Wang Mi can see the cute aura at a glance when performing the same action.
Obviously Shen Suanzi just changed his crown and clothes.
Could it be that this is prosopagnosia that has been lost for a long time in the world?
Rely on some different accessories to identify people?
"It depends on which aspect you want to measure from. In short, if you draw a long one, it is good luck. Generally speaking, you cannot predict the future trend. If you draw a short one, then..."
"okay!"
"Stop talking!"
Wang Mi quickly stopped her, and if Shen Suanzi continued talking, even if he could draw a good lottery, he would not be so lucky.
"Just let me smoke one!"
Shen Suanzi nodded with disdain: "You talk a lot. If you want me to say it, just smoke it and that's it."
