  Chapter 313 Omen of great misfortune

  The movement here quickly attracted Xiaoya and Lin Xue from a distance, and they all came to watch.

  The little girl also showed her head from her room, trotting over curiously to eat melons.

   At this time, Mu You has drawn the twelfth card, and still maintains a 100% correct rate.

   And Vivienne no longer spoke.

   Mu You also forgot about other things, and focused on sensing the Tarot cards in front of him.

   Until the next thirteenth card, he finally had his first confusion.

   The thirteenth card was supposed to be 'justice', but he drew out an ordinary deck.

   "It's really wrong..."

  Mu You sighed, he felt a little hesitant when he sensed this one, but in the end he took it wrong.

   Shaking his head, Mu You didn't care, and continued to sense.

   Next, the fourteenth to sixteenth, the hanged man, the **** of death, temperance, all correct.

  However, on the seventeenth card, another mistake occurred, and this time he actually directly drew a main card of another order, that is to say, he made two mistakes this time.

  Xiao Yalinxue and others around looked at Mu You quietly, and didn't make a sound, so as not to disturb him.

   After a few minutes, all 22 cards were finally drawn by Mu You.

   Then he made another mistake on the twentieth card, that is to say, he took four of the 22 main cards by mistake, and the correct rate exceeded 80%.

   "It's amazing, boss, you can draw so many cards with your eyes closed... Is this divination?"

  Xiaoya exclaimed: "Then, won't Landlords be a sure win?"

   "No, it doesn't count..."

   Mu You smiled wryly and shook his head. He just guessed the cards just now, and it was just the basic use of mind, which is far from divination.

  Real divination can sense much more than this.

   "How about Vivian, am I... qualified?"

   Mu You looked at Vivian, feeling a little apprehensive.

  He is still not sure what the judging criteria for this kind of test are. Shouldn't it be a talent for divination only if they get everything right?

   "You...qualified."

  Vivian's tone was as calm as possible, but she was already quite restless in her heart.

Her own talent in divination is quite excellent. When she did a similar test for the first time, she took eleven wrong cards and only had a 50% success rate. But even so, she has beaten 95% of the fortunetellers in the star spirit world. up.

  Even the most talented divination apprentice she ever taught got eight wrong cards in the first test.

   However, right now, there are only four mistakes in one test, and Vivian has never seen anyone with such a high success rate.

  She has been with Mu You for such a long time, and she knows that he has never been exposed to divination before, and this is indeed the first time he has opened his mind, and there is no possibility of cheating.

   That is to say, Mu You's talent in divination is far beyond ordinary people, even in the entire star spirit world is the top one!

"Oh, all right."

   Mu You didn't know that Vivienne was shocked by his talent, and he was still grateful for his qualification.

   "Can I formally learn next?" Mu You asked.

"let's start…"

  Vivian nodded without saying any more.

   "Next, you must first increase the scope and depth of your mind."

Mu You's current mind-eye perspective can only see a small area in front of him, which is of course not enough for real divination. A fortune-teller needs a huge amount of information to get a fortune-telling result. The more things he sees, the better the fortune-telling will be. The result can be more accurate.

  This training needs to open the mind for a long time, and strengthen it a little bit through exercise until it is enough for divination. It takes a long time, ranging from a few months to a few years.

   Fortunately, this kind of repetitive training can take a shortcut with a pocket watch and a fool's space.

  After three months of repeated training in the Fool's Space, Mu You finally trained his mind and eyes to a qualified level.

   And these three months are just a blink of an eye to the outside world, Xiaoya and the others don't even know that Mu You has just experienced three months of training in place.

   Mu You closed his eyes again, opened his eyes of mind, and looked at the surrounding environment. At this time, the scope of his eyes of mind had been raised to a space covering a radius of 100 meters around him.

   Mu You focused his perspective on the people around him, and the creatures in the mind-eye vision did not exist in the form of entities, but in the form of energy bodies, and only a group of human-like silhouettes could be seen.

At the same time, a large number of colored lines emerged from their bodies, including Mu You himself. These colorful lines, such as red, blue, yellow, and green, emerged from the human body, some connected to each other, and some Interlaced and knotted, merged in the air, some extended to the ground, combined with the surrounding vegetation, and some extended to the outside world, disappearing outside the mind's eye...

   "What are these lines?" Mu You asked.

   "That's the law of cause and effect..." Vivian said.

   "cause and effect..."

Mu You looked thoughtfully at the countless colored lines around him. In just a few seconds, not only lines were emerging from people, but all the surrounding plants, trees, and even dead objects had lines emerging, criss-crossing each other. They are connected to form an extremely complicated network, which reminds Mu You of the first sentence in the book "Introduction to Divination": Everything is a cause and effect.

   Subconsciously, Mu You wanted to carefully observe the connection between these lines, especially those of several humans.

   As a result, Vivienne seemed to have a premonition of what he wanted to do, and immediately stopped him: "Don't look into it!"

"Um?"

   "The human spirit can't bear this kind of information, or the same sentence, if you can completely grasp all the laws of causality, then you are not a human, but an omniscient god."

  Vivian sighed: "The so-called divination is actually just borrowing foreign objects, carefully prying out the information of the tip of the iceberg from these causes and effects..."

   "In addition, before you start divination, you must keep in mind the three rules of the fortune-teller."

   "What is it?"

"First, the number of divinations you can do every day is limited. Every divination will consume your mental power. The more difficult the divination, the more mental power you will consume, and the less mental power you have, the greater the deviation of your divination results. When the strength is insufficient, if you continue to forcibly open your mind eyes, you will cause irreversible damage to yourself."

   "Second, the closer the relationship between your divination and yourself, the more error-prone the divination result is, and the greater the consumption. Therefore, the best divination objects are those strangers you have never met before."

   "The third and most important thing... Never directly divination about your own affairs, as for the consequences, you know." Vivienne said.

Mu You's expression froze, and the fortune teller directly predicted the consequences of himself. He had seen it with his own eyes. In the Black Forest before, the female fortune teller predicted the future of his own death just because he wanted to predict his own life. , This is the same as the black magic out of control, it is a taboo that must not be touched.

   "Of course, as long as these three principles are kept in mind, divination is still a very convenient thing in daily life."

  Vivienne changed her tone, shook her head and said, "There is not much else to say, and the rest will depend on you to comprehend it yourself in the long-term actual divination."

   In short, it is just continuous actual combat.

   Mu You nodded, put away the tarot cards on the ground, and looked at the three people in front of him impatiently.

   "Do you... have anything you want to divination?"

  For the first divination in your life, you should try it out with people around you.

   "Boss, I want to try!" Xiaoya blurted out.

   "Oh? What do you want to divination?"

   Mu You slowly shuffled the tarot cards and put them on the ground.

  “When I went out in the morning, I found that the key was lost. I clearly remembered that I put it in the bag last night, but I couldn’t find it in the morning…”

  Xiaoya looked at Mu You uncertainly: "Boss, can you use divination to find this for me?"

   "Find something... sure."

   Mu You nodded, searching for lost items is a very common and simple form of divination.

   Mu You reached out and wiped away the stack of cards in front of him, signaling Xiaoya to draw them.

   "Picture in your mind what your key looks like, then draw three cards from it, and lay them down as you like."

"oh…"

  Xiaoya reached out to touch the array of cards. After hesitating on a row of cards with her fingers for a few seconds, she twisted out three cards and placed them in the shape of a character in front of her.

  At this time, Mu You had already watched her every move with his eyes again, and after all three cards were put down, he stretched out his hand to turn over the cards one by one.

"Stable positioning, two positive and one negative... Stars, judgment, temperance, all are major arcana cards. Karma is connected with yourself, and there is no tendency to overflow..." Mu You interpreted the method in the book and looked at it. received information.

   "..." Xiaoya scratched her head in a daze, listening to the scriptures.

   "To put it simply...the key is with you." Mu You finally looked at Xiaoya and told her the conclusion directly.

"ah?"

  Xiaoya was taken aback.

"No way?"

  She subconsciously groped her body, but after a while, her movements froze, and she took out a bunch of keys from her jacket pocket in embarrassment.

   "I really forgot when I put it in my clothes..." Xiaoya stuck out her tongue, a little embarrassed, and finally tried a fortune-telling, but it turned out to be an oolong.

  However, this also indirectly confirmed the accuracy of Mu You's divination results.

   "It's my turn, it's my turn!"

  Seeing that Xiaoya's divination was over, Ye Rumeng next to her couldn't wait to raise her little hand high.

   "What do you want to divination?" Mu You didn't refuse, and looked at the little girl while putting away the tarot cards.

   "I want to divination about my sister, to see if she...is still alive..." Ye Rumeng said with some concern.

   "It's also possible to..."

   Mu You glanced at her, predicting the life and death of relatives and friends is also a common divination content. Her sister was imprisoned in the Cook Islands, and in the hands of those lunatics from the Undead Society. Anything is possible, and it would be better to do a divination in advance.

   "But this time with another divination..."

  Mu You did not continue to use the Tarot cards, but walked out of the space, went to the room and found a mirror to come out.

   There are many media for divination. As a fortune teller, you must be proficient in the application of various media.

  Backing back to the space, Mu You put the mirror on the grass in front of the little girl.

   "Look at the mirror, and imagine your sister in your heart, the more detailed the better!" Mu You said to Ye Rumeng.

"oh…"

  The little girl hurriedly followed suit, put her hands on the ground, stared at the mirror, and began to recall her sister's figure in her mind.

   On Muyou's side, he was also looking at the mirror with his heart.

   At this time, in the field of vision of the mind's eye, a silhouette of a figure gradually emerged on the mirror, which was the elder sister representing the little girl.

   However, after watching for tens of seconds, Mu You suddenly frowned and let out a hush.

   "What's the matter?" The little girl hurriedly looked at him and asked nervously.

  When she moved, the figure on the mirror disappeared instantly.

   "Don't worry, your sister is still alive...and in good health." Mu You first told the little girl the news to reassure her.

   "Oh, that's good!" The little girl was very relieved, seeing Mu You's weird expression just now, she thought her sister was gone.

Little did he know that Mu You was also feeling strange at this time. According to the divination just now, the little girl's sister was indeed still alive, but she was more than alive. Judging from the results of the divination, her sister seemed to be living a comfortable and free life. Feelings of being imprisoned and threatened.

  This result surprised him a little, but there is nothing more to be divined at present.

   Mu You shook his head, then looked at Lin Xue again.

   "Where is Xiaoxue, is there anything you want to divination?"

"I?"

  Lin Xue pointed to herself, she really didn't have anything special to know at the moment.

  However, she also knew that Mu You was practicing divination. After pondering for a few seconds, Lin Xue said, "Then...help me divination whether my inheritance mission is going well this time..."

  Her inheritance mission is a mission inherited from the death sickle. Go to the dark city to find the inheritance of the apostles of the death god. More than half of it has been completed so far, and it will reach the final stage in a few days.

   "Wait a minute, try another crystal ball this time..."

   Mu You went back to the room to find a crystal ball toy, and brought it back to the space.

  After laying a black cloth on the ground, put the crystal ball on the cloth.

   "Next, just imagine your inheritance mission..." Mu You said to Lin Xue, and then observed the changes in the crystal ball with his mind.

  Lin Xue also nodded and followed suit.

  In the mind-eye field of vision, streams of surging mist immediately began to appear in the crystal ball, sometimes condensing, sometimes drifting and reorganizing, and finally gradually condensing into human shapes.

   Mu You frowned a little, because unlike the previous two times, the result of this divination was extremely unclear.

  He tried his best to spy on the changes in the crystal ball with his mind, trying in vain to get a glimmer of information from it.

  However, before he could find out anything, the crystal ball suddenly cracked and split in two.

   Mu You was taken aback for a moment, then hurriedly closed his mind and opened his eyes to look.

   Sure enough, this crystal ball was not only cracked from the perspective of the mind's eye, but also cracked in reality. It was divided into two from the middle, revealing the irregular section below.

"ah…"

  Lin Xuexiaoya and the three of them were also taken aback when they looked at the broken crystal ball.

  The two of them were just looking at the crystal ball just now, and neither of them moved, but the crystal ball actually cracked by itself. Even people who don't know divination can see this vision clearly.

   "What does this mean?" Lin Xue looked at Mu You blankly and asked.

  However, Mu You is also at a loss at this time, and this kind of result has never been mentioned in the book...

  Mu You had no choice but to look at Vivian asking for advice.

   "Is this a failure? Or..."

   "Not a failure..."

  Vivian looked at the crystal ball and shook her head solemnly.

   "Divination props are damaged, it is a bad omen..."

   "It means... Xiaoxue's mission will be in danger?" Mu You frowned.

   "Yes, and it is dangerous enough to be fatal!" Vivian said.

"ah?"

  Xiaoya and Ye Rumeng both exclaimed and looked at Lin Xue worriedly.

   Mu You also looked at Lin Xue at this time: "Can I give up this task?"

  Lin Xue shook her head silently: "If you give up, it is equivalent to giving up the blood of the Reaper family, and both the sickle and the robe will be taken back..."

  If it's just something outside of her body, she can give it up no matter how precious it is, but these two things are the relics specially left by her grandma, and she can't let go of them.

   "In this case, let's do another divination about your mortality rate for this mission!" Mu You looked at Lin Xue, took out the Tarot cards again, shuffled them and spread them out in front of him.

  Faced with this dilemma, it is better to use the death rate as a reference to decide whether to participate. If the death rate is really too high, even if you give up the two items, you can't let her go.
