Chapter 193: Calculator

We regard everything in the world as a whole, believe that the changes in the starry sky are related to the good and bad fortune of people on the earth, and believe that personnel changes, disasters and weather can all be omens from the celestial phenomena. Among them, the most widely used and most widely used are the twenty-eight constellations!

The names of the twenty-eight constellations are arranged from west to east. The seven constellations of the Canglong in the east: Jiao, Kang, Di, Fang, Xin, Tai, Ji; the seven constellations of the Xuanwu in the north: Dou, Niu, Fe, Xu, Wei, Room, Bi, and Bi; the seven constellations of the white tiger in the west: Kui, Lou, Wei, Mao, Bi, Vi, and Shen; the seven constellations of the Vermillion Bird in the south: Jing, Gui, Liu, Xing, Zhang, Yi, and Zhen. The twenty-eight star regions divided by observing the movement of the sun, moon, and five stars are used to explain the location where the sun, moon and five stars are run.

Old Man Zhang talked about it. When Old Man Zhang was first sold when he was young, he met a top-class slave. This top-class slave was originally a calculator and was inherited from the "Twenty-Eight Constellations Interpretations" to measure good and bad luck and glimpse the secrets of heaven.

This family of calculators can calculate good or bad luck for others, but they cannot calculate for themselves.

Perhaps because they leaked too many secrets throughout their lives, they finally received a catastrophe. There were only twenty or thirty people in their lineage, and he was the only one left in the end, and he was still alive.

In order to keep the ancestral "Twenty-Eight Constellations Interpretations" passed down to Old Man Zhang.

Old Man Zhang was only about seven or eight years old at that time, and had been a slave for three generations, or a second-class slave. The man fell in love with him at the sight of him and saw that he was kind-hearted, so he passed on the "Twenty-Eight Constellations Interpretation of the Constellations" on his dying occasion.

Because he didn't know how to practice, Old Man Zhang remembered for more than a month before he recorded the entire book "The Interpretation of the Twenty-Eight Constellations" in his heart. However, because he delayed the master's task in order to record the book, he sold it to others.

So although I remembered the "Twenty-Eight Star Constellations" but I didn't understand its usage. Until more than 60 years later, Old Man Zhang, who had been studying for more than 60 years, finally got his first step in the art and saw the wonderfulness of the "Twenty-Eight Star Constellations". However, others know how to tolerate and know that if people know that they understand this observation of the celestial phenomena, they will definitely suffer a disaster. So he hid this secret until now.

Old man Zhang looked at Shi Yan carefully and was very alert. He said that he would keep 70% of the three-point and inform Shi Yan about how to find the mineral node, and at the same time he stared at Shi Yan to observe his reaction.

However, he could not see anything other than seeing Shi Yan's surprise and joy.

There are only two reasons for this. One is that he is very scheming and does not express his joy, anger, sorrow and happiness.

Second, he really didn't think about anything else, his expression was all the thoughts in his heart.

"Okay, great, a knowledgeable slave like you...not... a knowledgeable old man like you is exactly what we need!" Shi Yan excitedly pulled Old Man Zhang, "Come on, I'll take you to see them!"

After saying that, Old Man Zhang couldn't help dodging, and Shi Yan pulled out of the mine cave.

....................................................................................................................................

The mine slaves around were frightened and thought that Old Man Zhang had offended the adults. The adults were angry and dragged him out. It was estimated that Old Man Zhang was in danger.

Everyone looked at each other, "Sure enough, what they said about freedom fighters are to test our heartfeltness. If we have two hearts, we will be like Old Man Zhang. The mild ones will be sold, and the severe ones will be... There will be no place to die!"

Everyone shivered and quickly lowered their heads to mine calmly. "I dare not think or think, I am afraid to think about it. Let's just focus on mining calmly. Don't think about those things that are not realistic. It's too risky. It's better to be more peaceful. You have a life and have food to eat."

"Yes, yes." Everyone responded.

"But I think what he said is true." A disharmonious voice came from the mine. The sound was very tender, and it was clearly made by a little girl of eleven or twelve years old. The little girl was extremely cute, but her face was dirty, her hair was disheveled, her head was ragged, and her clothes were covered with patches.

"Second girl, you don't understand." The person who was speaking just now said to the little girl: "The world of adults is not something that a little girl like you can understand. This kind of test often happens to verify whether we slaves have other thoughts. If we have one, we can't keep it."

"But I think what he said is true. When he looked at him, he was not lying. Grandpa would definitely not be a problem, he would definitely come back." The little girl was very sure.

When everyone mentioned her grandfather, they felt ache, "There is only Old Man Zhang, the relative left, but after that, maybe she will be alone. Alas, it's so pitiful, but who is not pitiful here?"

The little girl didn't care about everyone's pity, "I believe grandpa will definitely come back!"

"Hey, our ancestors like us are slaves for three generations or more. They are imprinted with the identity of slaves when they are born, and their identity will always follow us, marry and have children, and they cannot be taken off until they step into the grave. So, let's be peaceful. Be peaceful is a slave, and you have food to eat. Be restless is still a slave, but you don't have food to eat. Why do you think we are less restless? Do you want to be hungry for a few days?" The man looked at the little girl and said, "Second girl, listen to my uncle's advice and listen carefully to the instructions of the adults. As long as the adults think we are useful and do not abandon us, it will give us the greatest blessing!"

"Yes, yes." Everyone nodded in agreement and persuaded the girl.

The little girl pouted and didn't say anything, thinking to herself: "Hmph, I just know, you don't understand, I can feel that what she said is true."

These people obviously don’t know that the little girl’s grandfather, that is, Old Man Zhang is in a strange book like “The Twenty-Eight Constellations Interpretation of Constellations”. Besides, Old Man Zhang is in a unique skill, how can he not teach his precious granddaughter?

"Dang...dang...dang...dang..." The three short and one long bells sounded. It was time for class again. It was just because of Old Man Zhang's affairs. I don't know how many people could listen to this class.

....................................................................................................................................

"Come on, come on, everyone, I've found the treasure!" Shi Yan shouted excitedly until the tent.

"What are you shouting?" Xu Zuoxian came out first. She looked at Shi Yan and asked curiously, "Little sister, what treasure have you found?"

Because of excitement, Shi Yan didn't care about Xu Zuoxian's name. He pulled the old man into the tent and saw that, hey, except for Ye Yier who went to class, everyone else was here, and it was really a good match.

"I found the baby!" Shi Yan smiled and told what he had just discovered, which made everyone stunned.

"Counter?" Xu Zuoxian couldn't believe it, "There is actually a counter among our mine slaves? Why don't I know at all?"

Shi Yan looked at Xu Zuoxian with contempt, "Look at you, you are careless and careless, it would be strange if you know." However, you can only mutter a few words in your heart, and you must never say it.

Calculators are a rare profession. Calculators generally do not have much combat power, but are mostly respected by monks because they can help others avoid misfortune. There are many legends about calculators, including observing terrain and observing celestial phenomena, which are equal. No matter which one it is, the number of people circulating is very small. Calculators only accept one disciple and at most two in their lifetime. This is an eternal rule, so calculators have always been just a group of few people.

"No, you didn't listen to my explanation? He can calculate, but he is not a calculator!" Shi Yan explained.

"Tsk, what do I think? It turns out that it's just a calculating person." Xu Zuoxian curled his lips and sat on the chair, "I said, "You are too fussy, little sister."

Shi Yan gave her a blank look, too lazy to talk to people with little knowledge.

Mo Zixuan explained, "Since we want to form a team, we naturally need a person who knows how to calculate. Even if we only know some superficiality, as long as we can occasionally observe a little information, we may avoid many bad omens."

"That's right, that's the reason!" Shi Yan praised, thinking to himself, "I am worthy of being our wife, I just think carefully."

Shi Yan respectfully said to Old Man Zhang: "Old Zhang, do you calculate it for us?"

Old Man Zhang was already trembling and couldn't stand. If Shi Yan hadn't supported him, he would have collapsed on the ground. At this time, he heard Shi Yan's words and thought Shi Yan was going to get rid of him, and shouted in his heart, "It's over."

He knelt down with a thud, "Sir, spare me. I just learned some fur. I can guarantee that I will let him rot in my stomach and will never use it!"

Shi Yan smiled bitterly and looked at Xu Zuoxian, "Did you bully them too much before?"

"Don't let your bullshit, I, Xu Zuoxian, will not do those things that bully the weak."

Shi Yan's eyes turned back, "Then why is he afraid of being like this?"

Xu Zuoxian rolled his eyes, "Maybe you are so scary?"

Speak speechlessly.

"Old Zhang, you misunderstood. We just want to see your unique skills."

Mr. Zhang didn't believe it at first, but after Shi Yan's persuasion, he finally agreed to calculate it in front of them.

It was night now, and the sky was covered with stars, and it was very beautiful!

Old man Zhang Zhan Zhan came to the open ground with a magnificent view of the starry sky, and calculated the calculations based on the notes in the "Twenty-Eight Constellations Explanation of Constellations". The calculation items were naturally his best choice, deducing the mineral nodes.
