"This is the place where we gamble." Wu Yue scratched her head. "It's a divination with others to see who's right and who's wrong. The right person can win a lot of treasures. I'm here to cheat money."
She said it was cheating, but what she divined was real. There were so many scammers here who gave her money every day.
Ying Zijin nodded. "Let's go in and take a look."
There were more than ten cubicles inside. There was a big screen at the entrance with all kinds of pictures on it.
There were jades, compasses, and many antiques.
"These are the treasures I was talking about." Wu Yue introduced. "There are fake ones and real ones, but most of them are real."
Ying Zijin's eyes narrowed.
She went forward and drew on the screen with her finger. Finally, she stopped at a piece of Pixiu jade.
"Hey, miss, do you like this?" Wu Yue came over. "Then you want to compete with this Zhu guy."
"What's wrong with him?"
"He's an old scammer, but he can still do a little bit of divination." Wu Yue shrugged. "Maybe it's because he's older. He's better at cheating money than me."
In the field of feng shui, customers tended to believe in the older ones.
There weren't many people who came to look for someone like Wu Yue who had real talent.
"Well, I want this." Ying Zijin looked lazy. "Let's go in."
Wu Yue followed her to a room on the right.
They were immediately noticed by the people inside.
"Master Zhu, someone's here!"
Master Zhu, who was sitting at the table, heard the sound and looked up.
When he saw that it was two very young girls, he was very disdainful. His nose was up in the air. "Again? Then sit down. "
As expected, the newborn calf was not afraid of the tiger. They actually dared to challenge him.
Ying Zijin sat down opposite Master Zhu. "What's the divination?"
"Oh, so good?" Master Zhu touched his beard. "Things in the sky are the most difficult to divine. Of course, we have to calculate the weather. Let's calculate when the first rain will come."
"If you win, you take the Pixiu jade. If you lose, you have to pay a big price."
Ying Zijin's eyelashes drooped, and she said lightly, "Then let's forget about it."
"Alright, straightforward. You won't cry until you see the coffin." Master Zhu stroked his beard and narrowed his eyes. "Each of us has five minutes."
Fifth Moon rolled her eyes.
You have the nerve to call it divination when you're calculating the weather?
With the current technology, it was possible to predict the weather for the next few days by judging the thickness of the clouds and wind speed.
Otherwise, there would be no such thing as a weather forecast.
However, there were times when the weather forecast wasn't accurate.
Ying Zijin did not use the Book of Changes and the Plum Blossom Divination. She still used tarot cards and astrology to observe the astrolabe.
She still chose her cards casually and didn't use any card arrays.
Some of the people around who knew a little about tarot cards shook their heads.
"Young ladies these days are all interested in things like tarot cards and horoscopes. It's fine if they play around in private, but they actually want to compete with Master Zhu with such things."
"Isn't that so …"
"The weather will be clear from today until tomorrow." Master Zhu spoke at this time with an unfathomable look. "There will be rain in the morning the day after tomorrow. Remember to bring an umbrella. After a period of rain, the temperature will be very low and it will turn into hail."
Fifth Moon yawned in boredom.
What kind of divination was this? Wasn't this just a weather forecast?
Did he think she hadn't seen it before?
The problem was that today's weather forecast wasn't accurate. It would rain at night.
Her grandfather even specially reminded her to bring an umbrella.
However, the people around them were very worshipful and praised him non-stop.
"Master Zhu is Master Zhu."
"If there's going to be hail, it seems that my schedule the day after tomorrow will have to be changed."
Fifth Moon's mouth twitched.
Didn't these people watch the weather forecast?
If she was fifty years older, it would probably be easier to cheat money here.
Master Zhu was very happy to be praised, but when his gaze fell on the girl, it became disdainful and cold. "You're not done yet? If you can't, then there's no need to waste my time. "
The guests around tried to persuade her. Some were pretending, some were sincere.
"Master Zhu, give the girl some face."
"Don't be so harsh."
Master Zhu poured a cup of tea and was still very arrogant. "Alright, then give her a little more time and see if she can calculate something."
At this moment, Ying Zijin kept the cards.
She glanced at the queen of the sky and spoke.
The girl's voice was light and neither fast nor slow. "In ten minutes, the clouds will gather. In thirty minutes, thunder will rise. In an hour, the rain will fall. At eleven o 'clock at night, the rain will stop."
"Today's rainfall is 234mm."
"Cough, cough, cough!" Fifth Moon choked. She was shocked. "F * ck."
She looked at the sky and knew that it would rain today, but she didn't know anything else.
How could she directly calculate when the clouds would gather and when the thunder would rise?
The weather forecast couldn't be so accurate.
"…"
The surroundings were dead silent.
The surrounding guests all looked at the girl in surprise, bewildered and uncertain.
Master Zhu's beard curled up. His face darkened at first, but then he laughed. "Ten minutes later, the clouds will gather? You even know the rainfall? Do you think you're God? "
As he spoke, he reprimanded unceremoniously. "It's not raining today. What are you calculating?"
Master Zhu had been in the Feng Shui Alliance for five years. He was very prestigious and had many customers.
Many people believed what he said.
Therefore, when Master Zhu said this, the guests also understood.
"Master Zhu won this round again, right?"
"Master Zhu is really invincible."
"Sigh, there's no hurry." Master Zhu waved his hand. "Young people need to be taught a lesson. We can wait for ten minutes."
The weather forecast said that it wouldn't rain today. The sun was still high up in the sky. How could there be clouds?
Master Zhu didn't believe it at all.
Ying Zijin leaned back in her chair, her expression unchanged.
Time ticked by, and the fifth month was getting impatient.
"Okay, ten minutes are up." Master Zhu finally spoke. "Let's see if there are dark clouds in the sky."
As he spoke, he looked up.
Fifth Moon also looked up. Everyone looked up at the sky.
----- Digression —
There are three updates today.
Fu Yunshen: I don't want to get married.
Ying Zijin: I don't want to get married.
Future Little Dumpling Fu: (Hands up) Then how did I come out?
When I was writing this chapter, I suddenly remembered that when there was a choir competition in junior high school, our maths teacher specially opened the cloud map and started to predict whether it would rain that day. 23333
