Chapter 166: Divination (Part 2)
“Even though a Phoenix's destiny is good It is a pity to be imprisoned for a lifetime”
Shen Miao's steps suddenly paused as she looked at that Taoist priest with a frown and asked, “What did you say?”
That priest however turned his head s a little tune
Jing Zhe said, “Young Lady et to one's heart, it could be a fraud froh one did not knohy a Taoist practitioner would come to a Buddhist compound, but this priest was not serious at all, ht that it was just casual words, no difference from the frauds on the streets
Shen Miao looked in front and saw that Luo Xue Yan and Luo Tan had gone in, leaving her behind, with soht about it for adown on the wooden bench in front of the priest's booth and said, “I want a divination”
“This priest's divination is very expensive”
Before the voice fell, Shen Miao took out a golden peanut from her back This as inside the pouch that Su Furen's previously gifted Most likely one feared that gifting so a full pouch of golden peanuts so that it was easier to purchase things
However Jing Zhe and Gu Yu was a little anxious watching The most expensive on the streets for divination was only a few silver, as there a need to use golden peanuts? But there was no way to turn around the decision that Shen Miao had made The two maids were anxious but were also helpless
Shen Miao said, “If you are accurate, this golden peanut is yours But if it is not accurate, I will call people to srounds of swindling on the streets”
That priest was in all sht out a divination cylinder over He shook it before handling it to Shen Miao with a s Lady pick two divination lots”
“Why two divination lots are needed?” Gu Yu could not help but asked, “Usually it would be picking one divination lot Could it be that…” She suddenly cae?”
The priest shook his head, “Telling one's life fortune”
“Why would two lots be required to tell one's life fortune?” Jing Zhe was confused
The priest looked at Shen Miao before flicking his beard and sLady's life fortune”
Shen Miao's heart lared at the priest, who see the divination cylinder and shook it Two divination lots fell onto the floor with a 'pa ta' sound
That priest picked up the divination lots to look and Gu Yu and Jing Zhe became somewhat anxious The priest shook his head and said, “Phoenix's destiny trapped in a cage, life in a dangerous and hatters would spring up Before the guillotine, the barracks are ereat inauspicious lot”
As soon as the words were said, Jing Zhe's and Gu Yu's faces changed What great inauspicious? What guillotine? Jing Zhe said, “What a good fraud! With thisto? I see that you are just a liar I will go and report to the officials”
“Oh oh oh” That Taoist priest said, “What is the rush? How can a young lady be that impatient? There is still one more divination lot”
Shen Miao's entire heart was thu away
Phoenix's destiny trapped in a cage, this was saying that she was trapped in the Cold Palace of the Imperial Palace and no fruit would bear no le Created misfortune and implicated the family that the entire Shen fauillotine? And she had work hard and put in all efforts to help Fu Xiu Yi to sit on the throne but all hopes and effort caave her three feet of white silk Even Wan Yu and Fu Ming did not survive, nothing actually was remained How can it be not futile?
Shen Miao said, “May this priest help be to take a look at another divination lot”
Jing Zhe and Gu Yu becaure out why she would see the priest differently fro to let this priest to take a look at her other divination lot
That priest slanced at Shen Miao and as usual stroke his beard before saying slowly, “Out of the depth of misfortune comes bliss, the auspicious portent (direct translation from Chinese is Purple Cloud) comes from the East A superior lot”
Jing Zhe and Gu Yu initially scared that the priest would say so bad and it was near the year end now so everyone was afraid that bad fortune words would stick to oneself Seeing that he said as such, they sighed in relief Jing Zhe however ridiculed, “I had said that he is a fraud One divination is great inauspicious lot and another superior lot Just which lot is it the real one?”
“Both lots are real” The priest said, “If you don't believe, ask your Young Lady if this priest said correctly?”
Shen Miao's heart uards first I have so to say to the Taoist priest alone”
Jing Zhe wanted to persuade a few more words as she felt that this priest was a swindler However Gu Yu shook her head at her and pulled her to the side,room for Shen Miao to speak to the Taoist priest with a peace of mind
Shen Miao frowned as she looked at the Taoist Priest, “Does this Taoist Priest know so?”
The priest kept the divination lots and said without turning his head, “I see fro Lady's facial features, it is of a noble person Then one looked at Young Lady's assigned fated and saw that it belongs to that of a Phoenix's destiny One originally would be living a lifeti brocade Unfortunately… One's fate was changed”
Shen Miao said, “What change of fate?” Her voice was somewhat hurried
The priest's hands stopped and he looked at her, “Young Lady's fate is very peculiar There would be one big calamity in one's entire life and once this calamity has past, it would be smooth for the rest of one's life However in the first divination that Young Lady had drawn, one did not pass this calamity”
“What is my calamity?” Shen Miao asked
“One true Phoenix and one fake Phoenix The fake Phoenix had robbed the blessing and fate of the true Phoenix The true Phoenix was instead imprisoned”
Shen Miao only felt that her entire heart wanted to jump out from her throat True and fake Phoenixes, could it be said that she was the true Phoenix and as for the fake Phoenix, could it be Mei Furen? Mei Furen gave birth to Fu Sheng and Fu Xiu Yi doted on Fu Sheng thatdied and she also died so Fu Xiu Yi would establish Mei Furen as the E, perhaps he would let Fu Sheng inherit his throne
Wasn't this saying that one's fate was robbed?
Shen Miao said, “This Taoist Priest spoke of the first divination lot Then in the second divination lot, can I pass through the calamity?”
“With Young Lady's ability, it is i Lady's luck is good as there is help from a benefactor in one's fate”
“Benefactor?” Shen Miao asked, “Who is my benefactor?”
“This benefactor is fated with you with fate of a fierce dragon The fierce dragon overcoe The person can save you and you can absolve one's evil tendencies If one were to encounter this person, by borrowing this person's power, Young Lady's fate can be returned to its original and everything that was lost would be gained”
Shen Miao asked, “Where is this benefactor? Hoould I be able to find the person?”
The priest sht”
There was no need to say ain, “There is still one more question Ordinary people can only draw one divination lot so why do I drao? Is it Heavens intention?”
She was rebirth to relive the lifetiht about it there was a sense or unreality One feared that there would be a day where one would wake up and find oneself in that cold and lonely Palace and all these was just a dreah this eccentric priest that no one knew from where, spoke a bit accurately, perhaps he would know about this
“Heavens and earth is not benevolent and treats all creation like sacrificial straw-dogs The two divination lots of Young Lady's was requested by another”
“Another?” Shen Miao grabbed onto the keywords of that priest's words, “Who is that person?”
“The person ed you a lot” The priest stood up from the floor and patted the dust off his clothes as he said, “The mysteries of Heavens must not be revealed Today this priest had already revealed tooone's blessing Young Lady do not ask more and just relement, out of the depth of misfortune comes bliss, the auspicious portent (direct translation from Chinese is Purple Cloud) comes from the East”
After finishi+ng, he took a big step and strode off singing
Shen Miao stood still on the sa Zhe said, “It's so eccentric and one did not knohere he ca this Pu Tuo Monastery?”
Shen Miao however felt that she had peeked into sos in her heart
Just as she was thinking, Luo Xue Yan and Luo Tan walked out from inside
Luo Tan had a se number of red ropes which were connected to pouches She said with all s the red ropes How did you fall behind?”
Luo Xue Yan also said, “Just now one heard that there is a Grand Master that is in the Zen cha about the Buddhist sutras and wanted to call you to listen However one saw you being delayed for so long when I turned my head over Now do you still want to listen to it?”
After Shen Miao heard the words froely chaotic so hoould she have anyon sutras? She then shook her head, “Not going”
“Then let us hang the red ropes first” Luo Tan was however very excited and dragged Shen Miao before going forward
In the Zen chambers where Luo Xue Yan passed by just now, the action of knocking on the wooden fish by the oldmonk asked, “Teacher, it is already passed noon Didn't Teacher said that the person is co or not?”
Grand Master Guan Zhen stood up fro”
“Not co monk was stunned, “Why?”
“Had met another person”
The younganother person? Didn't Teacher specifically wait for the person here? Aren't the days spend waiting wasted if the person did not come?”
“There is no harether, “One had met up with a fated person”
“This is the cause and effect”
Shen Miao and Luo Tan walked out and reached that Tree of Cultivating Destinies
