"Today's three hexagrams have been used. If you continue to divination, you will die."
Shen Yuan clutched the hot tortoise shell, looked at the murderous Zhu Yuanzhang in front of him, and suddenly understood: the most accurate hexagram in these troubled times has never been the cracks on the tortoise shell, but the human heart.
Three months ago, he was still a graduate student in the Department of 21st Century Archeology. An earthquake caused him to travel through the late Yuan Dynasty, holding an imitation tortoise shell from the Ming Dynasty. The golden finger can predict three things every day——
The grain calculation said: "There is an official warehouse thirty miles west of Luzhou", which helped Zhu Yuanzhang survive in desperate situations;
Breaking the battle: "Chen Youliang robbed the camp tonight" and killed three thousand elites;
Hide from pursuit: "Hu Weiyong's case will implicate the health department", and leave Fujian and Zhejiang in advance.
But when the tortoise shell reflected the bloody warning "The Blue Jade Case Implicates Your Whole Family", he discovered:
To assist Zhu Yuanzhang is to seek death, to betray him is to await death. There is only one way - to use power as bait, tortoise shell as sword, and play a tightrope survival game in the torrent of history!
He offered the salt and iron franchise in exchange for self-protection, and even deliberately "miscalculated" the hexagrams, making Zhu Yuanzhang think that he was just a useful warlock. But the ultimate prophecy engraved on the tortoise shell is always like a gleam on the back——
"If you go back to seclusion, your descendants will be rich for three generations; if you stay, you will be worthy of enjoying the Ancestral Temple in a hundred years, but the Shen family bloodline will not survive the Yongle Dynasty..."
The subject matter is pretty good
