Fortune telling is a feudal superstition, and most people don't believe it.
However, some people think that there are real efficacies in it, and they may not all be charlatans.
Personally, I don't believe in fortune telling at all.
I think there were no psychiatrists in China in the old society, but no one’s life is smooth sailing.
In their destiny, they have to face important choices every moment, as well as pressure from all aspects of "family, studies, career, future, and business."
There are many Sometimes you will fall into entanglement and panic, not knowing what to do next.
In severe cases, it will lead to sleeplessness and restless sleep.
Now you can find a psychiatrist for guidance.
In the past, you could only find a fortune teller for guidance.
Then why are some fortune tellers able to predict events like gods?
Is there really a way to predict the future?
Before liberation, there was a well-known "Master Dad" in the world, who specialized in setting up a fortune-telling stall and made a lot of money every day.
It is said that he was very accurate.
When ten customers came in, nine and a half of them were convinced when they left.
At that time, the Beiyang warlord Wu Peifu specially asked him to see his photo.
After liberation, superstition was eradicated.
This business was no longer possible, but the family inherited the teacher.
The secret book passed down is still preserved.
This so-called "secret book" is not a book, but a set of oral and heart-to-heart tips.
It only lasts a few hundred words from beginning to end, but it covers all the "interests among people in feudal society and the intentions and desires of all kinds of people."
It has been thoroughly analyzed, and it also tells you how to observe people's inner world through their speech, behavior, clothing and look, and how to make the other person reveal their life experience and family background.
All these are accumulated through the experience of generations of fortune tellers over hundreds or even thousands of years, and are summarized in a highly generalized manner in the "Secret Book", which also uses a lot of slang.
Without the personal guidance of a master, it would be difficult for a layman to Even if people overheard it, they wouldn't understand it at all.
The fortune teller in the Golden Point business has mastered this "secret book" and is basically at the level of a semi-immortal.
Just like magicians, they have professional ethics and will not reveal to the audience how the magic is done, because if the audience knows the secret, no one will pay to watch the performance.
The fortune teller also regards the "secret book" as his job, knowing that if it is leaked, it will be equivalent to ruining his job, so the inheritance method is extremely strict.
However, although the "Secret Book" is important, it is only a theory.
How to use it in reality requires another set of "war horses", which means "organized and hierarchical speaking and asking questions", which is also the key to displaying the contents of the "Secret Book"
