Chapter 362 Divine Calculation of the World [2 Updates]

“This is a gambling place.” Fifth Month scratched his head. “It’s where you and others do divination on something, and then see who is right and who is wrong. The person who is right can win a lot of treasures. That’s where I scam people out of money.”

It may be called a scam, but all her calculations were true. After all, there are so many scammers here who send her money every day.

Ying Zijin nodded: "Let's go in and take a look."

There are more than a dozen cubicles inside, and there is a large screen at the entrance displaying all sorts of pictures.

There are jade, compasses, and many antiques.

"These are the treasures I was talking about," May introduced. "Some are fake, and some are real, but most are real."

Ying Zijin's eyes paused slightly.

She stepped forward, swiped her finger across the screen, and finally stopped on a jade Pixiu.

"Hey, miss, do you like this one?" Fifth Month leaned closer. "Then you have to compare it with this guy surnamed Zhu."

What about him?

"An old swindler, but he can still count on his own." Fifth Month shrugged. "Maybe it's because he's old, he's better at swindling money than I am."

In the field of feng shui, clients tend to believe in the older generation.

People with genuine talent and skills like Fifth Month don't attract many people.

"Hmm, I want this." Ying Zijing said lazily. "Let's go inside."

In May, I followed her to a room on the right.

It was 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 they were two very young girls, he was very disdainful, looking down at them: "You're here again? Then sit down."

As expected of a newborn calf that is not afraid of tigers, they actually dared to challenge him to a bet.

Ying Zijing sat down opposite Master Zhu: "What's the big deal?"

"Wow, that's amazing?" Master Zhu stroked his beard. "The affairs of the heavens are the most difficult to predict. Of course, we still have to calculate the weather. Let's calculate when the first rain will come."

"You win, you take that Pixiu jade. If you lose, the price you pay will be considerable."

Ying Zijing lowered her eyelashes and said calmly, "Then let's leave it at that."

"Alright, that's straightforward. You won't shed tears until you see the coffin." Master Zhu stroked his beard and squinted. "Each of us has five minutes."

In May, she rolled her eyes.

You dare call weather forecasting divination?

With current technology, we can predict the weather for the next few days by judging factors such as cloud thickness and wind speed.

Otherwise, there wouldn't be weather forecasts.

However, weather forecasts can be inaccurate at times.

Ying Zijing did not use the Book of Changes or the Plum Blossom Divination; she used Tarot cards and astrology based on observing the natal chart.

She still chooses cards casually, without using any card spreads.

Those around who knew a little about tarot cards shook their heads repeatedly.

“These days, young girls are interested in things like tarot cards and horoscopes. It’s fine if they play around with them in private, but to compare such things with Master Zhu is quite something.”

"That's right..."

“The weather will be sunny from today until tomorrow,” Master Zhu said, looking inscrutable. “There will be rain the day after tomorrow morning, so remember to bring your umbrellas. After a while, the rain will turn into hail because of the low temperature.”

In May, I was so bored that I kept yawning.

What kind of divination is this? It's just reading out the weather forecast.

Did she not see it?

The problem is, today's weather forecast is inaccurate; it's going to rain tonight.

Her grandfather even specifically reminded her to bring an umbrella.

However, those around him admired him greatly and praised him highly.

"Master Zhu is indeed Master Zhu."

"If it's going to hail, it looks like I'll have to change my plans for the day after tomorrow."

In the fifth month, the corner of his mouth twitched.

Don't these people ever check the weather forecast?

If she were fifty years older, it would probably be even easier for her to scam money here.

Master Zhu was pleased with the flattery, but when his gaze fell on the girl, it turned disdainful and indifferent: "You haven't finished calculating yet? If you can't figure it out, there's no need to waste my time."

Some of the guests around offered their advice, some feigning concern, others genuinely so.

"Master Zhu, please give the young lady some face."

"Don't be so harsh."

Master Zhu poured himself a cup of tea, still quite arrogant: "Fine, then give her more time and see if she can come up with any brilliant ideas."

At this moment, Ying Zijin put the cards away.

She glanced at the diva and spoke.

The girl's voice was light and unhurried: "Ten minutes later, the clouds gathered; thirty minutes later, thunder roared; an hour later, the rain fell; at eleven o'clock at night, the rain stopped."

Today's rainfall: 234 mm.

"Cough cough cough!" Fifth Month choked on her words, shocked. "Holy crap!"

She looked at the sky and knew it would rain today, but she didn't know anything else.

It can even directly calculate when the clouds will gather and when the thunder will sound.

Even weather forecasts can't be that accurate.

"..."

The surroundings were deathly silent.

The onlookers stared at the girl in astonishment, their expressions filled with doubt and uncertainty.

Master Zhu's mustache twitched, his face darkening at first, then he laughed: "Clouds will gather in ten minutes? You even know about rainfall? Do you think you're God?"

As he spoke, he reprimanded without any politeness: "It's not raining at all today, what kind of nonsense are you calculating?"

Master Zhu has been a member of the Feng Shui Alliance for five years, enjoys high prestige, and has many clients.

Many people believe what he says.

So when Master Zhu said that, the guests all understood.

"Did Master Zhu win this round again?"

"Master Zhu is truly unmatched."

"Oh, no rush, no rush," Master Zhu waved his hand. "Young people need to learn a lesson. We can wait ten minutes."

The weather forecast said it wouldn't rain today, and it's still sunny and bright, so where could there be a cloud?

Master Zhu didn't believe it at all.

Ying Zijin leaned back in her chair, her expression unchanged.

Time passed by, and the fifth month was drawing to a close.

"Alright, ten minutes are up." Master Zhu finally spoke up. "Let's see if there are any dark clouds in the sky."

As he spoke, he raised his head.

In May, everyone looked up at the sky.

There is a third watch in the afternoon.

Fu Yunshen: I am a non-marriage advocate.

Ying Zijin: I don't want to get married.

Future Fu Xiaotuanzi: (Raises hand) So how did I come into being?

Writing this chapter suddenly reminded me of a time in junior high when we had a choir competition. Our math teacher specifically opened a cloud map and started predicting whether it would rain that day, lol.
