Chapter: 2796
Ha'er Jiang was completely taken aback by the other party's rhythm, his brain only concerned with his daughter's safety, and all the knowledge he had learned over many years couldn't play any role at all.
He looked worried and asked anxiously: "Old master, please help us! You must definitely intervene!"
The old man saw him look up, smiled lightly, and said: "Since you're so sincere, I'll just try to do something about it. However, breaking this kind of predicament would cost me a lot, so you have to pay five thousand yuan for this service."
Ha'er Jiang didn't care about the five thousand yuan at all. If paying five thousand yuan could increase his daughter's safety by even one in a million, he was willing to spend any amount.
Therefore, he almost didn't think twice before continuing to scan and make payment.
Leaf Chen suddenly spoke up: "Old master, it doesn't matter if it's money or not, but shouldn't you explain the specific situation before taking the money? Or what kind of method are you going to use to help us break this spell?"
The old man didn't expect Leaf Chen to interrupt his good fortune at this moment, so he just coldly laughed and said: "Just a young whippersnapper daring to question my abilities?"
Leaf Chen waved his hand: "Not daring not daring. I'm not questioning you, but I want to clarify the situation. It's like fixing a car - we may not be able to fix it ourselves, but where is the problem and what parts need to be replaced?"
The old man coldly laughed: "Hmm! To break this kind of predicament, I have many methods. I can use the Five Imperial Money Divination, study his daughter's specific crisis situation, or even use spiritual symbols to break the curse."
Leaf Chen nodded with a smile.
He thought back to the "Nine Heavens Canon" and found a record about divination, including methods using ancient coins. Although it didn't mention Five Imperial Money, it did say to use truly rounded and square ancient coins, which would be more effective as they get older.
The theory of Five Imperial Money is actually a recent development. People usually refer to the coins of the Qin, Han, Tang, Song, and Ming dynasties as Five Imperial Money. However, according to the age of that ceramic bottle, this book was likely written during the Tang dynasty, whereas the concept of Five Imperial Money emerged much later in the Ming dynasty. Therefore, the divination method recorded here should be earlier than that of Five Imperial Money, possibly even being the ancestor of Five Imperial Money.
So Leaf Chen intentionally asked him: "Can you use Five Imperial Money to predict something? If not, let's do it first and if your prediction is good, I'll give you 10,000!
The old man immediately said: "Alright! Let me show you!"
After that, he took out a string of copper coins from his pocket, each with five different dynasty coins attached.
He then unwound the red rope, grasped the five copper coins in his palm, and shook them gently before saying in a cold tone: "Take a look, young one!
As soon as he finished speaking, he tossed the five coins away and stared at the ground. His face was filled with shock as he said: "This omen shows that your daughter will definitely have a calamity of bloodshed within the next few days, unless you intervene in time, it might turn into a deadly threat!
Hei Fenyuan heard this and suddenly became anxious. A deadly threat? What's there to do about it? He hastily asked: "Sir, please, no matter what, you must definitely save my daughter!
He was somewhat perplexed at this moment.
The old man's five ancient coins, which he had tossed out, were indeed genuine and authentic, but the information conveyed by this divination was like looking for flowers in a mist.
It wasn't because the target person's future was shrouded in mystery that this kind of divination appeared, but rather it was due to the limited level of the fortune-teller himself. As such, he could only foresee results as vague as looking at flowers in a mist. This divination was simply telling him: you can't understand anything.
It's obvious that this divination meant nothing at all, yet it insisted on warning others of bloodshed. Clearly, this was just an attempt to frighten people and gain attention by doing so.
So, Yang Chen could basically be certain that this old man was a charlatan who had learned only superficial tricks from his shallow knowledge.
If he were placed in the medical field, his level of understanding would be equivalent to someone who has just learned how to distinguish the positive and negative sides of an X-ray film - everything else is essentially meaningless.
Therefore, this kind of divination by him was completely a scam. JrNovels.com
