channeling spirits, and the tortoise shell showing signs; I am pious now, it is a sign of good fortune...
Looking at the words on the letter paper, Lin Shu was stunned.
It was hard for him to imagine what kind of mental state Xu Changshun was in when he wrote this line of text.
—Of course, he himself is also very elusive.
A college student in the 1980s eventually became a master.
According to what he said, it was to study the so-called rituals.
And most of these rituals are useless...
Mostly useless.
According to him, at least the two rituals of "snake raising" and "turtle divination" are useful!
This logic seems to be coherent and self-consistent.
This explains why he was able to give up his national work and devote himself to the study of so-called "rituals". It also explains why he is much richer than ordinary teachers.
“If divination is really effective and seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune, it’s no wonder he has no money.
But the problem is...
This is incredible!
Lin Shu vaguely felt as if the door to another world was being pushed open in front of his eyes, but did that world really exist?
The snake last night, and the turtle divination today...
Why did he tell me?Why choose me?
--In any case, it seems that I should and should first find a way to verify the authenticity of these rituals.
What if?
What if it’s true??
Seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune...making a fortune...this seems to have become a trivial matter.
If you can prove the authenticity of the existence of "Rituals", then I'm afraid your view of the entire world will change!
Lin Shu carefully laid the letter paper flat on the table and typed the symbols on the paper into the chat box one by one.
Then, he found a linguistics blogger with the ID “Lingfeng” whom he had dealt with during previous interviews, and sent this string of text.
"Are you there, Teacher Lingfeng? Can you help me find out how these words were pronounced in ancient Chinese?"
After a moment of pause, Lin Shu continued typing:
"I am currently working on a topic on ancient culture. If there are any opportunities for cooperation in the future, I will contact you."
After sending the text, he handed over a red envelope worth two hundred yuan. Of course, two hundred yuan was not much, but it showed his respect.
Soon, the blogger with a regular schedule sent a response.
"This is probably the ancient Chinese language from the Central Plains between the Zhou Dynasty and the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. I don't know what it means, but your phonetic notation is quite accurate."
Next, there is a voice strip, and in the voice strip, it is the pronunciation of the words "Yilun Turtle Divination".
Lin Shu sent a thank you emoticon and recited it along with the voice note until the pronunciation was firmly memorized in his mind.
Immediately afterwards, he took out his mobile phone again.
Chinese tortoise...this thing is not difficult to buy.
But yarrow?
Lin Shu tried searching on the food delivery software, but he could find it everywhere - only then did he realize that yarrow, which was associated with mysterious power and witchcraft in ancient times, is actually a common flower on the street in this era.
And it is often used to make dried flower arrangements as a foil to the main flower... Page (1/3)
