My Weird Life

   Chapter 387 Divination Fate (12)

  The sun shines through the window paper on the four sides of the main hall, projected on the wooden floor of the hall, and casts a dim yellow to the ground.

   A stone statue wrapped in silk and Wu clothing and with long black and smooth hair growing on its head was placed in the center of the hall.

   On her side, there is a wooden box with the same height as a person.

   The whole wooden box showed a color soaked in water, and the wooden box was wrapped with a layer of unknown things like seaweed.

There is no way to verify what is in the    wooden box.

  Su Wu could only judge from the words written on the wooden box that the wooden box, like the stone statue with black hair, was the deity of the chief priest of Soseki Shrine.

   The long-haired stone statue is 'the girl in the stone';

  In that wooden box, another deity who was newly enshrined in the shrine, 'Hashihime', should rest in peace.

   In front of the two worshipping gods, there is a long ceremonial table.

  There are all kinds of exquisite gifts dedicated to the gods on the offering table.

   For example, the "Kagura Bell" that makes the gods feel happy, the "Sacred Wine" that is brewed on a specific date every year for the gods to enjoy, and the "Sacred Sword" that the gods hold to inflict punishment and punishment.

   In front of the long ceremony table, there is a circular 'offer'.

at this time,

Accompanied by the priest of the shrine, 'Anlu Onmyoji' respectfully bowed to the deity, then stood up, grabbed a rope hanging down from the side of the altar in the palm of his hand, and shook the rope gently. The copper bell spring attached to the top hit the bell wall, and the thick and simple sound spread throughout the hall.

  When—when—

   Then,

   The old Onmyoji released his hand and slapped his palms three times in front of him.

   ended the ritual of worshipping the gods.

He seemed to have already sensed that Su Wu and Haruko and his party had come to the shrine, and after doing the complete set of rituals solemnly, he turned around with a charitable smile on his old face, and first greeted Haruko: "Miss Haruko ."

   Haruko smiled and returned the gift gracefully.

   This girl had secretly told Su Wu that Anlu Onmyoji was not a good person.

   When the other party was young, he tricked a pregnant village woman into a well and was made into a shikigami.

   But when she faced Anlu now, she couldn't see her disgust towards Anlu at all.

  Su Wu and Ogi followed Miss Haruko and bowed to Master Anlu Onmyoji.

   "Oh!" An Lu squinted at the two behind Haruko for a while, then suddenly came to his senses, stretched out his hand and pointed at Su Wu tremblingly, and said, "We met the day before yesterday—you are very tall,

   is great for being a terracotta warrior—wrong, it’s great for being a samurai! "

   Soldiers brave?

  Su Wuyi misunderstood the true meaning of the word 'terracotta warriors' in the other party's mouth.

   He didn't care what the other party said,

   In fact, he was already wary of Anlu in his heart.

   When there was no expression on the face, he nodded and smiled and said, "Thank you for your compliment."

   "Did you come to the shrine to pray for the blessings of the gods?" Anlu Onmyoji smiled, showing that he was very happy to talk to young people like Haruko and Su Wu.

   He turned sideways and made way for the altar,

   This also allowed Su Wu to see the ‘things’ on the offering platform.

On top of the fine sand and ashes accumulated in the altar, there are a few branches that are still burning slowly—they are the branches of a real sakaki tree outside. In Su Wu's eyes, these green branches have become incomplete one by one. The illusory human figures, under the licking of the flames, turned into wisps of green smoke, rushing towards the 'Girl in the Stone' and 'Hashiji' above.

   Green smoke entwines both,

   slowly infiltrated the two gods and was absorbed by them.

   In those incomplete and illusory human figures, there was Su Wu's familiar aura—the aura of Italian energy.

After the    meaning energy and some real substances are merged with each other, those incomplete and illusory human figures are formed, which become offerings that can be offered to the gods.

   Seeing this scene, Su Wu can be sure that the real sakura trees outside the shrine have some kind of endowment with 'intentional energy'.

   The human flesh, hands and feet entangled on the leaves and branches of the sakura tree that he saw earlier were the 'intentional energy' of many people that came from nowhere, and the outward appearance after gathering on the leaves and branches of the sakura tree.

  Because his 'will' is equally powerful,

   is the manifested form of 'intelligence energy aggregates' that can be seen instantly.

   "Abu, Ogi and the others haven't seen the shrine yet,

   So I took them to see inside the shrine. "Qingzi answered Anlu Onmyoji's question, led the two to the front of the offering platform, followed the movements of Anlu Onmyoji just now, and worshipped the gods.

   The sakura branches on the altar have been burnt out,

   The priest waiting by the side didn't mean to hand over the twigs in the tray to Su Wu and the two to ignite.

   Obviously,

   In the eyes of the priests, Su Wu and Damu are not qualified to offer 'true sakura branches' as offerings to worship the gods.

  The old Onmyoji stood in front of the priest,

   looked at Su Wu and Damu's movements with a smile,

   After the two of them had worshiped in front of the god, he said: "Since this is the first time I have come to the shrine, I think I haven't been at the shrine to predict my future destiny and career, right?

   I might as well be the fortune teller,

   How about a little divination for you in the future? "

  Miss Haruko shook her head when she heard the words, smiled reluctantly and said, "I am the divination witch in this shrine, I can do divination for the two of them.

   Lord Anlu is the right Onmyoji in the Yin Yang Liao,

   How can I trouble you to do divination for two domestic servants? "

   "Before the gods, all living beings are equal.

   I don't care about their low status. Anlu Onmyoji shook his head, looked at Miss Haruko, and suddenly smiled, "As the shrine's divination witch, how much of the will of the gods has she read, and how many people's fate has she accurately predicted?" "

   he spoke,

   His gaze turned to the priest in a hunting robe and a folded black hat.

   The priest glanced at Haruko, his expression unchanged, and said: "Ms. Haruko has become a witch not long ago, and she can't really listen to the will of the gods. So far, no one's fate has been accurately predicted."

   Haruko was clenched tightly by the fists wrapped around her sleeves.

   bowed his head,

   was silent for a while.

   "The practice of witches should also be done step by step.

   There is also a process of obtaining spiritual power and blessing from the gods.

   Although Ms. Haruko has not yet had the energy to correctly predict her destiny, she believes that as she grows older, the spiritual power she has accumulated will continue to rise, and temporary success or failure does not mean much. "Anlu Onmyoji rounded up the field with a smile,

   Then,

   He changed the subject and continued: "This time, I might as well do some divination for the three of you,

  Ms. Haruko, we can also take the opportunity to discuss with each other and improve our divination ability.

what do you think? "

   The other party has already said so, and Haruko can only nod in agreement.

   She glanced sideways at Su Wu, who stood there like a piece of wood, and didn't mean to speak for her at all, which made her even more discouraged - I tried my best not to let this old man see your future destiny!

   But you yourself do not know that the crisis is approaching,

   doesn't know how to cooperate with me at all, and I can't help it!

   "Then which of you will come first?" Anlu Onmyoji looked at the three of them after sitting behind a bill on the side of the offering platform.

   Without waiting for Haruko and Su Wu to speak,

  Daki was the first to raise his hand, his face full of excitement: "It's my honor that Anlu Onmyoji can foretell my fate!

   I want to be the first to do the divination! "

   finished speaking,

He looked at Haruko and Su Wu in embarrassment: "I'm sorry, Miss Haruko and Abu, this time let me do the divination first, Master Anlu Onmyoji has always been a person I admire very much. !"

   Haruko silently rubbed his forehead, but didn't show any signs.

  Su Wu patted his shoulder, nodded and said, "It's alright, let's go."

   Taking advantage of the opportunity to pat his shoulders, he has quietly cast a 'Chabaduo Wheel Blessing Mantra' on Damu.

  If Anlu Onmyoji has bad thoughts about Damu and intends to 'curse' Damu by means of Onmyoji, he will first be blocked by the 'Zhabaduo Wheel Blessing Curse' to remove the effect of the curse.

   Facts have proved that the secret spell that Su Wu cast on Damu was completely superfluous.

  Anlu Onmyoji may have ambitions towards Miss Haruko,

   may even have some wicked purpose for Su Wucun,

   But he has a harmless interest in Oki.

  Damu walked to the old Onmyoji's desk, and at Anlu's signal, he knelt down and sat opposite.

   "Which aspect of your future destiny do you want me to foretell for you?

  Marriage? cause? family? "

   Anlu looked at Daki gently, not at all impatient because of the low status of the other party.

  Damu's nervousness gradually calmed down under An Lu's wide and peaceful gaze, he thought for a while, then raised his eyes to Anlu, and said, "Master Onmyoji, I want to foretell my future career!

   Will my future still be as bad as it is now? "

"it is good."

  Anlu nodded,

He spread out a piece of white paper on the table, took out a brush, and dipped some kind of sweet-scented ink placed in the corner of the table. He held the brush in one hand and recited a few sentences in a low voice. spell,

   and then hang the pen in the center of the white paper,

   said with Oki: "In the name of the girl in the stone and Hashihime, and with the help of their spiritual power, I will perform this divination for you.

  You hold the lower end of the brush with your hand. "

  Damu somehow felt that the current atmosphere became solemn and sacred,

   His heart beat faster, and hurriedly held the lower end of the brush as instructed.

  Su Wu cast his eyes here,

   His thoughts spread out silently, like a web formed by spiders, covering the entire hall.

   For a moment,

   It looks like an insect has fallen into the net—

  Following the 'meaning' he was touched, at this moment, Su Wu saw that in the main hall, the stone statue with black hair and the shadow of the wooden box overlapped together, and suddenly covered the shadow of Anlu Onmyoji,

  Anlu's eyes turned gray,

  The skin is swollen, as if it was gently pressed, it will spill out liquid!

   Seeing him like this, Daki almost let go of his brush in fright!

   But at this moment, Ogi's hand seemed to be grasped by an invisible, cold hand.

   With that palm slammed,

  The tip of the brush drips black and red ink,

  The ink spreads and stretches on the paper,

   Eventually dried up and solidified into a weird pattern.
