Chapter 83: Divination
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Beside Old Lady Spencer sat an old Daoist priest with his eyes closed. His eyebrows were longer than his beard. When he heard Old Lady Spencer’s words, he said arrogantly, “I usually don’t enter the secular world. Coming with you is already an exception.”
Old Madam Spencer nodded sincerely. “Yes, yes, yes. It’s all my son’s fault. He actually wanted to bring my grandson to find a little girl.” She anxiously and helplessly relayed James’s words just now, and then mentioned repairing Master Murphys temple to spread good karma…
Only then did Master Murphy relent. “Alright, you and I are fated. I’ll follow you on this trip and see which child dares to spout nonsense!”
Old Madam Spencer was extremely grateful as she brought Master Murphy to the Walton residence.
After Amelia finished breakfast, she kept looking out of the door and was distracted. “Master, do you think that boy is alright?” The dream this morning had really worried her. The ‘little ghost’ in the dream did not say a word and just stared at her. Amelia felt that if that ‘little ghost’ really died, she did not know if he would become a ghost and come to her dream every day to stare at her.
Elmer sat cross-legged at the side and drew something on the book with a red brush in his hand. He said casually, “Do you want to know? Then Master will teach you divination. Do you still remember what Master taught you yesterday? The Five Mystic Arts: Mountain, Medicine, Fate, Divination, and Physiognomy.”
Amelia: …I think so.”
Elmer glanced at her and suspected that her ‘I think so’ was exaggerated. She fell asleep before he could finish teaching her yesterday.
Elmer said, “Fate is the study of destiny, using the eight characters and the stars to deduce a person’s fate. Divination is prediction using the six yao to deduce fortune, disaster, and blessing in the future…” He slowly taught Amelia the basic academics. Amelia listened very seriously, and Elmer did not know if she understood. “Now, do the divination yourself. How is Oliver?
Amelia immediately turned around and looked around. Divination, divination, using the turtle shell… Amelia remembered these two things. Suddenly, her eyes lit up. She ran to the rockery pool at the side and grabbed an old turtle that was sunbathing leisurely.
“Hehe!” Amelia threw the turtle on the grass. The old turtle rolled out and circled the grass several times before stopping.
The old turtle. “???”
Elmer. “???” He said that turtle shells are used for divination, but he didn’t say that it had to be a living turtle shell!
Unfortunately, Amelia squatted in front of the old turtle and nodded seriously. “Yes, yes, I see…”
Elmer’s mouth twitched. “See what?”
Amelia: “The boy isn’t dead yet. He’s coming to our house. There’s also a fake Daoist priest. The boy is going to suffer and might not live…” She squatted on the ground and covered her knees with her hands. She placed her chin on the back of her hand and looked at the old turtle seriously. The old turtle struggled and stretched out its head to bite a blade of grass, flipping itself over.
Amelia: “Ah, there’s a reversal!”
The corners of Elmer’s mouth twitched. What reversal reversal? He moved his fingers angrily and suddenly exclaimed. He looked at Amelia in surprise. Was it really as she said?
At this moment, the sound of a car engine came from outside the Walton family’s manor. Amelia stood up, patted her butt, and ran out. Old Master
Walton and Old Madam Walton’s voices came from afar. “Mr. Spencer? How’s Oliver? Are you looking for Mia? Mia is here. Mother Taylor, call Mia over.”
Amelia ran quickly. “Grandma, I’m here!”
Old Madam Walton hurriedly supported her. “Slow down, slow down. Why are you running so fast?”
Amelia looked at James and the woman hugging him. “The old turtle told Mia that the boy was coming, so Mia rushed over.”
Old Madam Walton and Old Master Walton were puzzled. What old turtle?
The moment Sylvia saw Amelia, it was as if she had grabbed onto a straw to clutch at. “Mia, please save Oliver…” All parents worried for their children. Sylvia was completely flustered now. Oliver was in her arms, not breathing at all.
Amelia ran into the house and said, “Come in quickly.”
James took Oliver and quickly followed Amelia. Old Madam Walton and Old Master Walton hurriedly followed. After Amelia entered the house, she ran to the kitchen. Master said that to summon souls, she needed to find a basin to burn paper money and find the boy’s clothes…
Mother Taylor followed behind and asked, “Miss Mia, what are you looking
Amelia said, “I have to find an iron basin, paper money, and that brother’s clothes..”
