There are only two things in this world that make wizards awed.
One is a book; the other is divination.
The book represents the known, the reality, and the existence of wizards in this world.
Divination interprets the wizard's grasp of the mysterious and unknown, the coveting of time, and the prying eyes of fate.
With the continuous development of the magical civilization, wizards continue to use the known to erode the unknown, and begin to use books to carry divination, and strive to turn these awe into respect and part of daily life.
Even so, for most wizards, divination is still a mysterious and profound knowledge.
The title page of every divination textbook will be engraved with a motto in red pen:
Divination requires caution.
In Zheng Qing’s first divination class, the thin and thin divination professor did not ask the young wizards to open the textbooks, but through a few simple actions, everyone was deeply impressed:
He asked the freshmen to take turns to the podium, stand in front of him for a minute, and face each other;
Then draw one from the tarot cards placed on the table and count the cards;
Finally, the newcomers will leave him a word on the white paper to test the word.
For students who have a certain foundation in divination, the professor specifically allows them to observe a crystal ball or burn a small piece of tortoise shell and describe what they have seen.
And the professor himself, through this set of combined divination, made an accurate analysis of each student.
From name, birthday, to personality, hobbies, as well as the subjects that everyone is good at, their New Year’s wishes, and even the specific images of the new people’s deep fears, and some of their difficult things, the professors are in a few minutes They were explained in the private meeting.
This anti-visit-oriented newcomer introduces himself, giving every freshman who has just entered the university a soul shock.
Therefore, Professor Yi Jiazi's repeated emphasis in the first class of "Divination requires caution" is firmly engraved in Zheng Qing's mind.
So, when he heard that Irina was doing divination, he immediately became nervous.
Seeing him nervously, the gypsy witch suddenly laughed.
"It's okay." Irina said in a brisk tone: "This is not a formal divination... It can only be counted as a guess in a sense... The divination mentioned by the professor requires the use of superb magic skills and many auxiliary conditions. , And these illusory smoke are far from the conditions for using divination magic."
Although I don't quite understand what the conditions are mentioned by Irina, Zheng Qing knows that things are not going out of control.
This really relieved him.
His little heart can no longer withstand any unexpected stimulation today.
"I thought you used that tarot card for divination." He sat on the high chair, shook the blood wine in his hand, trying to show a relaxed appearance.
"Tarot cards are auxiliary props of formal divination, and smoke can only give some specious choices." Irina looked at the smoke in fascination, as if trying to distinguish something.
"It sounds like smoke divination seems to belong to ancient divination?" Zheng Qing's face showed a thoughtful expression: "I always thought that this skill only exists in textbooks."
The development of divination in modern times has abandoned the differences in genres and regions.
In the Encyclopedia of Wizarding World, under the divination entry, only ancient divination and modern divination are distinguished.
Compared with the ancient divination techniques that rely on guessing three points and seven points relying on the sky, modern divination is more based on a large number of careful calculations and numerous strict formulas.
And compared with the conclusion that ancient divination is not very effective, modern divination is more similar to the big prophecy of the gods.
Accurate, detailed and reliable conclusions.
So that when people refer to divination, they subconsciously understand it as modern divination.
Ancient fortune telling has gradually become a memory in the history and legends in the books.
"This is indeed ancient divination." Elena explained to him with a smile: "This kind of secret method rarely appears in wizards' lives nowadays... I guess, only similar to our gypsy witches, this style is very traditional. The wizarding organization of China will have a complete inheritance of some ancient divination techniques."
"How are these smoke fortune-telling?" Zheng Qing showed great interest in the big cloud in front of the witch: "If you don't mind, can you tell me something?"
"Don't mind!" Irina picked up a silver-white fork from the bar, and pointed to the large cloud of smoke in front of him: "Just like you see."
"Clouds are divided into cumulus, stratus, and cirrus; fog includes advection fog, evaporative fog, uphill fog, frontal fog, etc."
Ilena took a leisurely sip of the cigarette, and gently sprayed out a wisp of bluish white smoke, then stretched out her index finger to point to the misty smoke and explained:
"Simply put: Cumulus clouds represent negative and time is close; cirrus clouds represent positive and time is far away. Advection fog means safety, uphill fog means hardship, and frontal fog means twists and turns."
Zheng Qing stared blankly at the tumbling smoke, and couldn't see the difference between the unpredictable smoke.
Irina was a little closer to him in order to explain more clearly~EbookFREE.me~. His nose was filled with the fragrance of the gypsy witch, and his mind was blank, he would only giggle and nod dizzy.
"What were you looking at just now?" Realizing that the witch's explanation came to an end, Zheng Qing's thinking became extremely sensitive, and he quickly found the next topic: "What are the characteristics of the smoke you just exhaled?"
"There are cirrus clouds and frontal fog, which means that the long-term results are good, but there will be some twists and turns in the middle." Ilena blinked, with a mysterious smile on her face: "As for what I am looking at... "
"Your drink, please use it slowly." The dobby waiter behind the bar came over and handed Zheng Qing a cup of Wufeng that had been prepared, with an apologetic smile on his face: "For your unpleasant experience just now, our store deeply Sorry, I hope you can accept it."
"It's okay, it's okay." Zheng Qing took the wine glass and repeatedly signaled the waiter to leave.
However, after this interruption, the Gypsy Witch seemed to have lost the interest in continuing to explain, but stared blankly at the cloud of smoke that was almost floating in front of him, without saying a word.
"What is your divination?" Zheng Qing hesitated for a long time, but finally couldn't help it, and asked again.
Irina took another cigarette, spit out a cloud, and said nothing.
"I'm sorry, I'm just a little curious." Zheng Qing felt a little fidgety when she felt the silence of the beautiful woman in front of her.
"It's okay." Irina seemed to have just recovered, she looked up at him, and her slightly hoarse voice was full of smiles: "My divination is related to you."
"It's related to me?!" Zheng Qing repeated in surprise.
He pulled his neckline.
He felt a sense of suffocation that he couldn't breathe.
