My Immortal Brother-in-law

Chapter 42: Postnatal Divination
Not far away, Ji Chang, who was listening to Zhong Su scolding a child, forced a smile and said awkwardly.

"Haha, mountain gentleman.

You trained this boy and his mount... It's very interesting...

hehe……"

After he finished speaking, Ji Chang swallowed awkwardly.

Then he turned his head to the side, waved to his personal soldiers, and asked them to stay away.

While doing this, Zhong Su also sent the two naughty little guys away.

Then, Zhong Su returned to Ji Chang and said with a smile.

"Thank you so much, Brother Ji Chang. Otherwise, if I had to retrieve my father's remains by myself, it would probably take me ten or eight years."

"Ten or eight years?"

Hearing this, Ji Chang became interested and said to Zhong Su with a smile.

"Shanjun, you are very confident. As far as I know, you have only been practicing for a few months.

What? Is your practice going smoothly? Do you think you’ll see results in ten years?

There are quite a few witches on the Guifang side. Those barbarians often fight shirtless but are invulnerable to swords and spears. Hundreds of thousands of them charge together. The scene is simply a scene of loud drums and gongs..."

Having said this, Ji Chang suddenly stopped, he felt that he shouldn't say anything more.

He and his father went to Dashang precisely to dispel the merchants' vigilance towards Xiqi.

But now he is bragging about how powerful Guifang is. Isn't that just a way of showing off how powerful Xiqi is?

For a moment, Ji Chang thought about it, then raised his hand and grabbed Zhong Su's hand.

"Let's not talk about that. Now that the coffin has been delivered, I should go back to Sanshan Pass.

I will be staying at Sanshan Pass for another ten days or half a month. If you need anything else to see me, just go to Sanshan Pass directly."

"How can this be done!"

Seeing that the magical power of Liujia Qimen was about to fade away from him, Zhong Su quickly interrupted Ji Chang, grabbed his hand and said.

"Brother Ji Chang, I have to repay you for your kindness. Besides, the Three Mountain Pass is not very interesting. It is not as comfortable as the wild land in the mountains.

This Dengshi Mountain is rich in beautiful stones. You may pick some to make pendants. If you don’t want to wear them yourself, you can give them to others.

I happen to have a batch of jewels given by the Dragon King of the East China Sea. I can give them to you as a saddle bag with pendants to make you a little richer.

What's more, I have plenty of fine wine here, and as for food, what kind of food could be more delicious than the wild animals we hunt ourselves?"

As he spoke, Zhong Su helped Ji Chang make the decision. He then quickly waved to Jiugong in the distance.

"Little Nine."

"Master, I'm here!"

As Xiaojiu came over, Zhong Suli waved his hand and a handful of gilded jade fell out.

Accompanied by the rustling sound of money, Zhong Suli said to Xiao Jiu.

"Tell your servants to use this money to buy raw materials, and try to build an extra house in the mountains within a day so that Brother Ji Chang can live comfortably.

Go quickly, and don't forget to urge the craftsmen to work more efficiently."

"Order!"

Xiaojiu quickly ran away with the jewels and went to ask her servants to make arrangements.

With such speed and enthusiasm, Ji Chang couldn't help but look up to Zhong Su.

As Ji Chang had been appointed as the ruler of Xiqi decades ago, he certainly didn't care about this expense.

What he cares about is attitude!

And Zhong Su’s attitude is absolutely correct!
So after a brief thought, Ji Chang nodded happily.

"Since the mountain gentleman has invited you so kindly, I have the audacity to disturb you.

It just so happened that I didn't like living in Sanshan Pass. Once I got there, the nearby military generals liked to stare at me. If they didn't know, they would think I was being imprisoned and monitored.

By the way, Tiger King, is there a river in your mountain? Are there fish in the river? " "Of course there is a river, of course there are fish. If you want, I can even take you to the East China Sea to fish. We can even fish for real dragons!"

Zhong Su said hurriedly, and his words immediately made Ji Chang smile.

Ji Chang quickly took out the brocade bag from his waist and took out the tortoise shell and divination chips inside.

"Shan Jun, I had already eaten before I came here. General Kong treated me to a whole fish banquet.

So, let’s talk about eating and drinking later, just let me enjoy myself first.

I feel a little addicted when eating fish. There are so many fish I have never seen before, I can’t catch them all in my lifetime.

Please wait a moment, tiger. I will tell you which direction there are fish. Then I will trouble you to take me fishing.

I dare to ask the heavens, where can I go fishing today to get a rare fish?"

As he spoke, Ji Chang threw the divination chips in his hand downwards, then squatted down and compared everything.

While Ji Chang was comparing the divination chips, Zhong Su was staring at Ji Chang. He felt that the four words "Liujia Qimen" in his heart were about to burn!

But the next moment, Zhong Su was stunned.

Ji Chang was seen shaking his head in confusion and speaking in bewilderment.

"Ah, now Chentangguan General Li Shiying has three grandsons?
No, that's not it, I need to ask another divination!"

As he spoke, Ji Chang cast another hexagram. After just a moment, he quickly compared the new hexagram again.

"What, there will be a phoenix passing by Xiqi in the summer of eighteen years, this doesn't make sense?
I can’t even count the fish, this is really… I have to try again!”

"and many more!"

Hearing this, Zhong Su finally couldn't help it, he quickly interrupted Ji Chang and said.

"Brother Ji Chang, your divination...isn't it a bit strange?

That’s not the point. The point is that you just mentioned the Phoenix!
Is it important that Phoenix didn’t catch anything?”

"The Phoenix is ​​certainly not important."

Faced with Zhong Su's question, Ji Chang shook his head indifferently.

"It's not like there are no phoenixes in the wilderness. Normal nobles should have eaten dragon liver and phoenix marrow. If I were a general hunting phoenixes, I might get excited.

But I just want to go fishing now. Do you think Phoenix can help me go fishing?"

As he spoke, Ji Chang threw out the tortoise shell again.

After a moment, he checked it again and said disappointedly again.

"Hey, your boy Deng Jiugong will give birth to a very powerful daughter in the future. His daughter is particularly good at dealing with men?"

"What the hell is this!"

Seeing that Ji Chang's calculations were becoming more and more ridiculous, Zhong Su pursed his lips and teased with amusement.

"Brother Ji Chang, are you sure you are serious about this? Your hexagram is a bit..."

“It’s a bit strange, isn’t it? There’s nothing I can do. I’m not a celestial being, I don’t know how to practice, I don’t have any magical powers, and I can’t use the innate divination method.

But the less I understand about fortune-telling, the more I want to do something.

In this way, until twenty-four years ago, I finally summarized a set of my own divination equations based on the rules of innate divination that I had heard about.

For the past 24 years, I have been trying my best to improve my fortune-telling program, until five years ago, I finally achieved the results I have today! "

Speaking of this, Ji Chang raised his tortoise shell proudly.

"In the past five years, I have been able to get every divination right without any mistakes, but there is a drawback to my algorithm, which is that it is easy to hit the wrong target.

As you can see, the results I calculated may not necessarily come from the problem I want. This drawback is also the problem I have been trying to overcome in recent years.

If one day I can solve the problem of pointing east and hitting west, then my algorithm may not be much worse than Fuxi, the emperor of mankind's innate divination.

Look, Tiger King, as more and more hexagrams appear, they are getting closer and closer to us, and are even closer to your boy!

Let me tell you another divination. If nothing unexpected happens, this divination will be correct!"
