Chapter 6 Interpretation of the Hexagrams
"This is not your palm print," Yun Mo's words immediately made the young man stop chewing candy.
Dabaicai: "This is my palm line!"
Yun Mo narrowed her eyes. "Do you want me to request StarNet arbitration? I think providing false information and misleading me into completing the commission could also be considered fraud."
The yellow-haired young man was choked by her, swallowed his saliva, and said to his roommate: "I have never seen a liar so arrogant."
His roommate looked up at him and said nonchalantly, "She's just trying to trick you. Ask her to explain it and see if she can explain it."
Dabaicai: "Why do you say these aren't my palm prints?"
Yun Mo snorted coldly. This was the first person who dared to blatantly cheat her. In order to prevent him from knowing how powerful the young master of the Yun family was, she wrote the word "Yun" upside down.
Yun Mo: "Your commission does not include asking me to interpret the hexagram!"
Dabaicai gulped down a mouthful of water and fiercely stabbed at the keyboard: "What's this interpretation?!"
Yun Mo: "Your account doesn't match the palm print you provided. This is a fact. I've taken a screenshot! Do you want to arbitrate?"
"Fuck, this arrogant liar!" The yellow-haired young man rolled up his sleeves, his face flushed and his neck thick.
Behind him, the other three boys in the dormitory had gathered.
"Ask her. Unless she can explain why, she's trying to trick us," suggested my roommate.
Huangmao had already sent the same content to the intelligent computer.
Yun Mo perked up, sitting cross-legged on the bed, rubbing her chin with her right thumb for a few times before calmly responding, "Place another order with my shop, and I'll interpret your fortune for you!"
The yellow-haired young man and his roommates looked at each other in bewilderment. "What does she mean? What is hexagram interpretation? Could this be her scam? Is she using hexagram interpretation to cheat us out of our money?"
"How much is a divination?"
At the urging of his roommate, Huangmao carefully typed out a few words.
At this time, the room was filled with an indescribable excitement. There was a certainty that the other party was a liar, and there was also the excitement of being on guard against the other party's moves at all times!
Life is so boring. It's rare to meet such an idiot but unconscious liar. If I don't have a good time with her, I will be sorry for these good young people of the new era.
Yun Mo smacked her lips and searched on Baidu first. The price of a star-rated hotel in the interstellar space seemed to be around 800 star coins per night. Since she, the young master Yun, was sending the money, the price couldn't be too low.
Yunmo was a descendant of Yixue, which was founded in the Zhou Dynasty.
According to historical records, King Wen continued to study and deduce based on the "Lianshan" and "Guizang" Yi, and deduced them into 64 hexagrams and 384 lines, with hexagram and line texts, which are known as the "Zhouyi".
Physiognomy, including palmistry and face reading, is almost Yunmo's introductory tutorial.
Physiognomy is divided into innate and acquired qualities, and also into form and complexion. The hand embodies the principles of the two yin and yang, the three talents, and encompasses the secrets of Tai Chi and the five elements. Thus, at its grandeur, the universe encompasses the palm of one hand; at its smallest, the five internal organs are clearly visible within it.
Therefore, by reading the palm, one can analyze a person's talents, personality, achievements, the wealth of his ancestors, the situation of his parents, spouse, children, and his own development trends through the direction of the large and small lines, the branch symbols, and the upper, lower, left, middle, and right parts of the palm.
"It only interprets the hexagram, not solves the problem. Eight hundred star coins for one hexagram!" Yun Mo sent it without hesitation.
"Puff..." The yellow-haired man almost sprayed the water in his mouth onto the terminal in front of him.
"Eight hundred star coins? What a boast!" His roommate was also stunned.
"A graduate from the Federation's top comprehensive university only gets 5,000 star coins a month in his first year. Does this liar even know his own worth?" my roommate said. "Forget it, stop playing around and cancel the order."
"No!" Huangmao stiffened his neck, "I still had sex with her."
Dabaicai: "What if what you said is wrong?"
Yun Mo: "The money will be returned to you! You can take a screenshot as evidence and request arbitration from StarNet."
Chinese Cabbage: "What you're asking for is too expensive! What if you're just talking nonsense?"
Yun Mo: "Fortune-telling is about exploring the secrets of heaven. There are three types of people who can do it for free, but I believe you would not be willing to be one of them."
Dabaicai raised an eyebrow and continued typing at his roommate's urging: "Oh? Tell me, which three categories of people are free?"
"First, the dying man."
"Second, people who are about to face a major disaster that cannot be avoided."
“Third, there will be no more ups and downs in fortune.”
"These three types are free, and I can even give you the money."
Dabaicai: ...The more he talked, the more he felt that the other party was promoting feudal superstition.
The yellow-haired young man looked at the serious reply and was a little undecided. He turned to look at the other three people in the room.
The three of them felt a bit stressed, and roommate A said tentatively: "How about bargaining with her? If it's cheaper, at worst the four of us can split the price, and the loss won't be that big."
The other three nodded repeatedly.
Chinese Cabbage: “Cheaper.”
Yun Mo: ... "How much?"
Dabaicai pondered for a moment and tapped the keyboard: "Eighty!"
Yun Mo: ...Is this a "bit" cheaper? It's almost just a "bit" left. Is one divination from Young Master Yun only worth eighty star coins?
Yun Mo poked the screen fiercely: "Deal! Pay first!"
"Ding... Eighty star coins have arrived in your wealth treasure." The reminder from the intelligent computer terminal relieved Yun Mo's depression.
Dabaicai: "Hurry up and tell me, my eighty star coins!"
Yun Mo: "Judging from the palm lines, this person is about eighteen years old, no more than twenty. Male. He has three siblings."
Yunmo was typing and thinking at the same time.
Palmistry could only reveal so much information, so she had to feel out her three black buttons and use the hexagram to calculate. After all, this was her first order, and it affected the store's reputation, so she had to take it very seriously.
As she spoke, the atmosphere in the dormitory became a little cold.
Roommate B touched his arm and said, "I feel a little cold."
Huang Mao turned around and glanced at him: "Nan Fangyue, do you really have three brothers and sisters?"
"Yeah," the young man who provided him with the palm print nodded.
Yun Mo's next message had already been sent: "Your commission said that you have a stepmother and your father is seriously ill, right?"
Chinese Cabbage: “Yes!”
Yun Mo: "In fact, the two geomancy lines on the picture you provided indicate that you have many brothers and sisters. The geomancy lines are bad, indicating that you will be unlucky with your father. You didn't see your grandfather when you were young, and your son will follow his mother after she gets married."
"Bang!" Nan Fangyue stood up with a pale face, and he didn't know when the chair behind him fell down.
"She... said, is it true?" The yellow-haired young man turned around and asked, while looking up at the dormitory, he felt like he was being stared at by a pair of invisible eyes, and he felt a chill.
"Yes," Nan Fangyue nodded with difficulty.
The four brothers in the dormitory had a good relationship, so he didn't mind telling them, but no one else knew that he followed his mother's marriage.
Dabaicai and the three brothers looked at each other, and no one spoke for a long time.
Roommate A poked the cabbage and pointed at the screen: "She's still waiting."
Dabaicai wiped the sweat from his palms: "Anything else?"
Yun Mo curled her lips and said, "Gen below and Kan above represents a mountain and water stronghold, the Jian hexagram, which is beneficial to the southwest but not to the northeast."
Huangmao turned around with difficulty and looked at Nanfang Yue, "Is your father going to Sirius?"
Sirius is just northeast of the central star!
Nan Fangyue swallowed hard and answered his father's video call. "Dad, are you leaving?"
"No, something happened on the way and I missed the aircraft carrier."
"Oh, that's good." Nan Fangyue hung up the phone.
At this moment, a news item was scrolling across the Star Network in front of him: "VG5624, bound for Sirius, encountered interstellar pirates in the Delta Galaxy..."
Huangmao, Nanfang Yue and others looked at each other, their mouths wide open.
