Chapter 106: Chapter 106: The Beginning of the Butterfly Effect
Thinking of this, He Yun nodded with a hint of anticipation.
“Okay, then calculate my fortune for me, what do I need to do? Do I report my birthdate to you like they did?”
“No need,” Jiang Li said, “Just open your hand.”
He Yun did as he was told.
The next second, to his surprise, Jiang Li pulled out three copper coins from her pocket and placed them in his palm.
Looking at the somewhat antiquated and even bronze-colored coins, He Yun’s curiosity peaked.
...
“This is….”
“It’s the Copper Coin used for the Money Trigram,” Jiang Li patiently explained. “The Money Trigram isn’t cast for trivial matters, so you can hold these three copper coins and think of a matter in your heart, the more devout, the more effective. But remember, do not use the Money Trigram for unjust or unnatural matters, or you’ll suffer a backlash of fate.”
He Yun nodded seriously, then closed his eyes.
[Jiang Li is so annoying, He Yun already said he didn’t want a divination, and yet she’s still pestering him.]
[Can He Yun’s fans stop reading into things? Which of your eyes saw him unwilling? Don’t pass up such a good opportunity to me, acting coy despite the advantage.]
[Exactly, we wish we had a chance to get Sister Li to divine for us.]
[Is Jiang Li that amazing? She even knows the Money Trigram, and that’s a complex one and hard to learn!]
[Look at the three copper coins she gave to He Yun, they even look like antiques!]
[That must be fake, right? Who would carry around such valuable ancient coins with them? Could this be another scripted act set up in advance?]
Everyone in the live broadcast room was waiting to see what would unfold out of curiosity.
After all, Jiang Li usually did divinations for the villagers, and this was the first time she would divine the fortunes of a guest participating in the same program, and using copper coins no less.
A few dozen seconds later, He Yun opened his eyes.
“Okay, what now?”
Jiang Li looked around and then led He Yun back inside the house.
“Now shake the copper coins in your hand several times, then toss them onto the table.”
He Yun followed her instructions, shaking the coins solemnly a few times before casting them onto the table beside him.
The three coins landed, all showing tails.
He Yun looked at Jiang Li somewhat puzzled, “What does this mean?”
Jiang Li concentrated for a few seconds, then reached out to collect the coins one by one, shook them in her palm a few times, and tossed them again.
Just like before, they all showed tails, and two of them even landed on top of each other.
“Do you want to hear the truth?” she asked.
Jiang Li’s tone was no different from usual, so He Yun couldn’t tell if it was good or bad.
“Of course.”
The fans in the live broadcast had stopped their chatter, now more concerned with the divination result.
[So is this good or bad?]
[Ahh, Jiang Li, stop keeping us in suspense, just tell us, don’t make me kneel and beg you.]
[He Yun’s fans are hilarious, just now they were mocking us for believing in Lili’s superstitious practices, and now they’re begging for the result, playing both sides so clearly.]
[Don’t lump us rational fans with those blind idolaters. Sister Li is willing to divine our brother’s fortune, and I couldn’t be more pleased, it’s the perfect chance to see if our brother can win another award this year!]
[Exactly, idolaters, don’t get in the way of our brother’s real business! Master Jiang is so incredible, even if you paid her for a divination, she might not give you the time of day.]
Jiang Li exhaled softly.
“It’s the Kun Trigram, the state of being trapped by water, the passing year is challenging, fortune is frequently adverse, it signifies—great misfortune.”
