Tortoiseshell divination is a method of divination with a long history.

Old-fashioned tortoiseshell soothsayers would place polished porous animal bones or tortoise shells under the spiritual flame, and observe the omen patterns of the flames to guess the good fortune and judge right and wrong.

In modern times, with the flourishing of various wizard theories and schools, this ancient method of divination has gradually abandoned many traditional stereotypes - for example, the tortoise shell needs to choose a virgin turtle with an even age at the foot of Nanshan Mountain, the animal bone needs the shoulder blade of an eight-foot cow born in Mu Chun, and for example, to punch holes in the oracle bone, you need to choose a good day and auspicious day, bathe and fast, and sacrifice three animals before you can start.

Wizards who have been trained in modern theories only need to make a small hole in the correct direction of the tortoise shell in accordance with the formulas and theorems listed in the textbook, and the depth, angle, and shape meet the requirements - as long as you follow the standard strictly, even if you use an electric drill to punch holes, the ghosts and gods will not care about your disrespectful behavior.

Of course, those traditional and old-fashioned divination words are still needed.

"The year of Wuzi, the month of Renxu, the day of Bingwu. ”

"Chastity should be taboo. ”

"It is advisable to travel, open the market, and make alliances. ”

"Said, avoid fasting. ”

"Zhen Jiji. ”

"Said, the southwest of Dali, the east and the north. ”

"It is not difficult to meet the clouds, but it is not an enemy to meet the moon. ”

Until a piece of tortoise shell was burned to pieces, Dr. Xiao Da only had these few words in his mouth, which made Xin Fat Man scratch his head more than when he heard it.

"Can you speak human words!" the fat man shouted anxiously while packing up the potion test tube in his hand, "Professor Yi has never given such a godly answer in class...... Moreover, this is a hunting ground, not a fortune-telling hall, do you need to burn tortoise shells?

"I just want to be mentally prepared before the divination...... After all, today is already very unlucky. Xiao Xiao dropped the tortoise shell, extinguished the spiritual fire, patted the black ash on his hand, and said slowly: "Moreover, if I have the level of Professor Yi, will I form a hunting team with you? ”

"I don't need to look at the Jiji, I just want to know what's going on around me right now. Zheng Qingming wisely abandoned the divination content that could not have a clear conclusion, and put the goal on a simpler, clearer part.

"That's exactly what I'm trying to say...... But before that, I want to emphasize. Xiao Xiao didn't know where to find a yarrow, and while carefully fiddling with the burned black and yellow tortoise shell on the ground, he pointed to the cracked lines on it and analyzed: "You can see that the middle line of the tortoise shell is deeply cracked, and there are many virtual and real cracks at the edge, which are intertwined with each other, and the divination is obvious...... That means we're going to be in a lot of trouble. ”

"There is no doubt about it. Fat Xin sneered.

Xiao Xiao ignored him, but looked up at Zheng Qing: "I remember that Andrew Taylor asked for an alliance with us before the game, and I think now is a good opportunity." ”

"Andrew, the little wolf cub?" the fat man couldn't help but exclaim, "He's offended the hunting committee in the beginning, besides, think of the things he's done before...... It's not a smart idea to form an alliance with him. ”

"Now the hunting ground belongs to His Highness the puppet!" Xiao Xiao emphasized and glanced at Zheng Qing again.

"I just want to know what's going on around us right now. Zheng Qing dodged the doctor's question, but spread out his hands and emphasized his request.

Xiao Xiao sighed, opened his notebook, revealing several large pages of dense formulas and calculation processes, and then stuffed them under the nose of the public scholarship student: "I have already finished the calculation just now." ”

"School time, 2:27 p.m. ”

"The hunting ground environment, the tropical rainforest, the current temperature, 29 degrees Celsius, the temperature is stable, there is no wind, lack of light, the restriction of strong range magic, the weakening of positive energy magic, suitable for the use of curses, potions. ”

"Two miles to the north, there is a demonic spirit, the intensity is 7, an independent individual, 4-5 miles to the east of the north, it is also an independent individual, the intensity is 5, 7 miles to the south, the intensity is 3, 9 miles to the northwest, the intensity is between 3-6, it should belong to a demon group. ”

"In short, according to the divination results, there doesn't seem to be any major trouble. After Xiao Xiao finished speaking, he was afraid that Zheng Qing would relax his vigilance, so he immediately added: "What I said before are just those monsters who clearly mark their identities. ”

"As for the demons who hide, refuse to show their faces, and like to play ambushes, then I can't say. ”

"That's a hunter's thing. Zheng Qing turned his face and glanced at the blue.

I saw the guilty hunter sitting cross-legged under the tree, holding his sword in his arms, as if he were taking a nap. But after hearing Zheng Qing's words, he nodded slightly, as if agreeing with the captain's opinion.

"Anyway, until the situation is clear, I don't recommend that the hunting party clash with any demons or other hunting parties. Xiao Xiao put away his notebook and concluded: "After all, we are still in a very dangerous situation now...... I still recommend joining forces with other hunting teams to advance and retreat together. ”

Zheng Qing pinched his chin and didn't squeak.

"According to the puppeteer......" Fat Xin couldn't help but speak again.

"It's His Highness the Puppet. Xiao Xiao patiently corrected: "In its hunting ground, whether we want to or not, it is necessary for us to maintain a certain amount of respect. ”

The fat man blinked, as if remembering the two classmates who were chewed up in the small hall, and immediately changed his words: "...... According to His Highness the puppet, only one hunting party can be the final victor...... Even if we're willing to work with them, what about them? Do they have the idea of moving forward and retreating together?!"

"I believe that every hunting party will have a wise soothsayer. Xiao Xiao expressed her attitude tactfully but resolutely.

While speaking, Zhang Jixin, who had just run to a distance to do basic experiments, had already returned with a body of smoke.

After he stuffed the small notebook full of data to Zheng Qing, he turned his head to look at Xiao Xiao, and his tone was a little unpolite: "Wise soothsayer......? Didn't you notice anything about it? I mean what happened today...... Didn't you see any warning?"

"You're also a wizard, do you see that?" Xiao Xiao sneered.

"You have a specialization in the art industry! As the right hand of the hunting team, you naturally have to take on the duties of a soothsayer!" the main hunter of the guilty immediately kicked the ball back.

Xiao Xiao finally stopped arguing, but sighed, and said helplessly: "Omen is everywhere, naturally there are...... But no one expected it to be so bad. ”

"Didn't you complain this morning about a lot of trouble with the hunting party? ”

"It's just that in the middle of the game, I've always thought that those omens have something to do with winning or losing matches in the hunting ground. Who can jump out and think that all the hunting teams have been hijacked!"

"Besides, if we can block the rescue of the First University and wipe out our freshman forces, it is necessary to have the ability to interfere with the soothsayers...... Otherwise, how can they hide from the guardians of the school who wake up at the slightest disturbance?!"

The doctor's statement was very reasonable, Zhang Jixin was stunned for a moment, and after all, he still had nothing to say.
