"Miko, this is a formal profession, and the status is quite noble. Even the emperor has to consult a miko when he is in doubt." However, there is no limit to the number of fortune-telling professions. Yunyao remembered that her husband-in-law taught her that there were many professions for telling fortunes for princes. Different people would do the fortune-telling on different occasions, which was very detailed. The inner court belongs to the inner court, the sacrifices belong to the sacrifices, the funerals belong to the funerals, and the wars belong to the wars. Of course, the specific classification is not only that, there are also gender-specific ones, which are calculated specifically for men and women. The advantage of this is that no one can monopolize it. The right to interpret destiny, if there are more fortune tellers, there will be no monopoly, and Zhou will not make the same mistake as Shang.
Nowadays, divination is no longer as popular as in the Yin and Shang Dynasties, but resignation to fate has not withdrawn from the lives of Zhou people. There are still many Zhou people who like divination and divination.
What¡¯s more, Ms. Zhang was originally from the Song Dynasty and a survivor of the Yin and Shang Dynasties. She had just experienced a tragedy. She must have been extremely insecure at this time and urgently needed divination to comfort her unfulfilled inner world.
It¡¯s just that Yunyao didn¡¯t expect that this strange pair of women who looked like mother and daughter turned out to be witches.
"Who are these two?"
"The witches of Zhu Youshu, the old one is Pan Wu and the young one is Chi Wu. They are a pair of very effective witches and mother. Thanks to them, I can avenge my brother. Just like their divination, rebellious All Xiao Zong were killed." "Without their divination, I don't know if I could have persisted until now." It can be seen that Zhang Nu relies heavily on these two witches.
Yunyao thought she must have made a mistake. Her husband-in-law had already analyzed it and said that Xiao Zong would definitely die badly if he tried the method. How could it be the result of their divination? Anyone who understands Zhou etiquette knows that Xiao Zong's rebellious behavior is impossible to succeed. Why is it now the witch's credit? Is this Ms. Zhang¡¯s brain broken?
Although she thought so in her heart, on the surface Yunyao looked like she had been taught something: "Then it's up to you two to do the divination. I wonder what I need to prepare?"
"No need, Zhu Youshu is the art of observing the sky. It can detect destiny without borrowing any external force." The white-haired old woman said proudly, looking confident. She was wearing a dog fur with bright feathers on her shoulders. Vest, and leather sandals popular in the Western Zhou Dynasty.
No external objects are needed, just a bronze furnace with a large head and an exquisitely carved pair of rhinoceros horns, put in firewood and vanilla, and smoke out white smoke. The mother and daughter faced each other, palm to palm, raised their hands, murmured to themselves through the white smoke, and began to perform.
Ms. Zhang is very serious, but Yunyao cannot deny it. Although there are gods, she does not believe in fortune telling at all. No matter how powerful the gods are, they will never calculate that they will be on the list of gods. Even if a mere mortal wants to calculate his destiny, he will not be afraid of Feng Da's tongue flashing.
But just when Yunyao was about to watch the joke between the two witches, colors appeared in the white smoke, vaguely like a scene. Right in front of Yunyao's eyes, it was more magical than magic. This magical change couldn't help but make Yunyao straighten up, thinking to herself, could they really have the magic to reach the sky?
The fragrance spread, and the whole tent was filled with a strange atmosphere. In June, the temperature was already quite hot. There was a stove in the tent, and there were many people. Even though there was a refrigerator, it didn't help. The temperature was only high but not low. It can be found that a lot of water droplets have condensed on the outside of the bronze refrigerator and are dripping on the ground.
A mysterious and strange aura lingered around everyone. Yunyao couldn't help but frown, looking at the palace blurred in the white smoke.
Zhang Nu is more serious than Yunyao, because she only feels that this is her fate that is closely related to her. But Yunyao just wanted to see the flaws. One believed unconditionally, but the other was finding fault.
The picture seems to be an abandoned ruins, with vague figures looking for something from the ruins. But the white smoke was floating erratically, the picture was shaky and blurry, and the colors were very light, so it was really hard to see clearly.
I guess I¡¯ll have to ask the witch to explain it later. After all, this is the meaning of divination.
Just when Yunyao opened her eyes wide and looked for the mechanism, the scene in the white smoke suddenly changed, from the scene of treasure hunting to a big snake with its bloody mouth open. The picture was very clear, and the big snake almost rushed out of the smoke. As the powerful image of the big snake rushing out flashed by, the white smoke disappeared completely, and everything returned to calm.
The big snake at the end startled everyone, and Ms. Zhang even broke out in a cold sweat: "Two witches, what is the explanation for this?"
The two witches were also shocked and were exchanging quick glances with confusion in their eyes.
"Pan woman, Chi woman?" Zhang Nu couldn't wait any longer. She didn't know why the two witches didn't speak freely as before.
Finally, Pan Fu, an old witch, saluted and said, "I'm afraid this is related to snakes. Zhu Nu's energy was cut off by snakes, which means she has a fate related to snakes. IfIf you can survive, you will naturally get a valuable treasure. If you fail, you will disappear like this wisp of smoke, that is, you will die. "
Yunyao thought that this was the same as fortune tellers, they all liked to make things very serious. When she asked how to solve the problem, they would give them the answer, which was nothing more than buying their magic weapon and giving them property. Du Niang was not in a hurry, so she didn't ask, just to see what they could do.
"Nv Zhu is my savior. I can't watch her suffer disaster. Witch, what should I do?" Nv Zhang was worried for Yunyao. Seeing that Yunyao remained calm, she said, "You don't have to be afraid either. The witch must have a solution."
The miko muttered, as if she really encountered a problem and was in a difficult situation. If this is acting, then it is really amazing, no wonder it can deceive people.
Although he also saw the scene in the white smoke, Yunyao still did not believe that this represented his own doom: "I guard the north bank of the Zhu River day and night, how can any monsters come here to trouble me? The sky is clear and the sun is bright, righteousness will last forever, and the behavior is correct. If you do things correctly, you will not be afraid of shadows. If you do not do bad things, you will not be afraid of ghosts." Yunyao was an old atheist as soon as she opened her mouth. Although she had seen gods, loose cultivators, and water ghosts, she was her own teacher. She was still a mountain god, but she still didn't believe the doom the witch told her about.
"Don't say that, you have also seen the big snake, right? The last snake is so scary, can't you still believe it?" Zhang Nu felt incredible, such obvious evidence, seeing is believing, how could Zhu Nu Don¡¯t believe it? Could it be that she couldn't figure it out?
"I only saw a ruin, a big snake, and no calamity. The two of them said the calamity, and I'm not sure whether it's accurate or not."
"It's definitely accurate."
Panfu was very angry when she heard that Yunyao doubted her business ability, because no one had ever dared to doubt her explanation so much. She was the authoritative one: "It seems that this boatman doesn't believe in our divination, so there is no need to say more. When the time comes, When calamity comes, just bear it directly, it will be nothing more than death." There was a hint of threat in his words.
"Don't be angry, you two. Just think of it as giving me face. After all, Zhu Nu is my savior. I also ask you two to cast spells to save her life for my sake." Zhang Nu said anxiously. It seemed that she I am really grateful to Yunyao for saving my life. It was impulsive when she jumped into the river, but later she realized that she didn't actually want to die, so Yunyao was her reborn parent, so how could she not worry?
"Forget it, let me use my method to scare that dangerous snake, and in this way I can keep Zhu Nu safe." Pan Fu said to avoid the difficulty: "It's just that such spells will definitely cost a lot, and Zhang Nu must be well prepared." Save her life.¡±
When Yunyao heard this, she realized that the secret trick was coming. She didn¡¯t know how much her life was worth in the heart of the witch.
