Chapter 90 - 82: Great Calamity Imminent
Below Stone Mountain, in the courtyard outside the bamboo house, Chi Shao is planting herbs.
Ever since the hydraulic medicine grinding device was invented, she doesn’t have to spend so much time and effort pounding medicine, freeing up time to do other things.
A piece of land in the courtyard has been cleared for a herbal field. All the bamboo roots, tree roots, and gravel in the soil are cleared away. Chi Shao intends to plant some rare herbs there for easy access when needed.
Suddenly, Chi Shao feels a sense of unease, as if something big is about to happen.
"The Old Witch said that after gaining Witch Power, sometimes one could foresee fortune or disaster. Is there a calamity about to happen?"
The more Chi Shao thinks about it, the more she senses something is wrong. She puts down the Bone Plow and rushes into the bamboo house.
Standing by the fire pit, facing the dancing flames, she solemnly begins chanting ancient incantations: "ㄓㄌㄡㄤㄞ..."
These were divination spells passed down by the Old Witch when teaching her witch doctor skills, used to predict the fortunes more accurately through divination.
As the spell is chanted, the flames in the fire pit shoot up significantly and start to dance in an inexplicable rhythm.
Most of Chi Shao’s Witch Power gathers in her eyes. If someone were present, they would see her eyes shimmering like glass, emitting a faint glow.
