Collection of strange powers and chaotic gods

One

During the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, Cheng Qifan of Le'an County, Qingzhou Prefecture (official in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties. Named Hongxu, nicknamed Yushankun, native of Yanxudian, Le'an County, Qingzhou Prefecture—now Yanxuxun Village, Guangrao County, Shandong Province.) was diligent in He studied astronomy and art intensively, and was especially good at using wind signs for divination.

During the "Three Feud Rebellions" (referring to the rebellion of the three vassal kings Wu Sangui of Pingxi, Shang Kexi of Pingnan and Geng Jingzhong of Jingnan in the early Qing Dynasty), Cheng Qifan served as Zhongshu Ling in the capital (responsible for the emperor's orders in ancient China) The official responsible for the release, whose role is the same as the policy implementation and coordination department of the modern government (similar to the secretary-general of the "Two Offices"), has to report to the emperor every day what is happening on the battlefield thousands of miles away.

Although he was in the capital, his predictions about wars were very effective, so he became the minister of the Lifanyuan (an institution that managed ethnic minority affairs in the Qing Dynasty) (second only to the minister, equivalent to the current deputy minister).

Once, Cheng Qifan was invited to visit Zhang Shenling's home in Donghua Gate.

As soon as the host and guest sat down, he suddenly took off his hat and put it on the table, and said to the host: "I have a stomachache and want to go to the toilet."

Zhang Shenling didn't take it seriously and pointed him in the direction of the toilet.

Cheng Qifan did not go to the toilet, but ran directly out of the gate, called his bearer, quickly got up from the sedan, and rushed home.

The bearer didn't know what was going on, so he asked him why he left in a hurry.

Cheng Qifan waved his hand and said to him: "Don't ask, just leave. I have deduced that this family is in trouble. You and I are both in danger today. The master invited me, but I dare not I won’t come. So I can only go there and put down my clothes for a while, and now I’m going home to avoid the disaster.”

Before he finished speaking, he heard a loud "rumbling" sound. The warehouse of the Gunpowder Bureau in Donghuamen exploded, and flames shot into the sky.

Immediately afterwards, the fire continued to spread, and dozens of nearby homes were on fire. Zhang Shenling's home was among them. It was burned to ashes in a short time. The whole family, including the guests who had not had time to leave, were all buried in the sea of ​​​​fire.

Second

There was a man named Ji Xiaotang. Because he could predict what would happen in the future, he was convicted by the government of "deceiving the public with evil words" and was exiled to Heilongjiang.

On the way, we passed a hotel and when we were having dinner, Ji Xiaotang and the two guards who escorted him couldn't sit down at the same table to eat because the dining table in the hotel was too small.

Ji Xiaotang grabbed the table and pulled it, and the table immediately rose three feet.

A police officer scolded him and said, "You were sentenced to exile for this reason. Why don't you repent and still play such a trick?"

When Ji Xiaotang heard this, he was furious and cursed: "Summer insects can't talk about ice!" Then he stood up, walked to the courtyard, picked up the horse that the servant was riding, and sent it into the courtyard wall of the hotel, leaving only the horse behind. The tail is wagging outside.

The officer hurriedly stepped forward and pulled the horse's tail, trying to pull it out. But the horse seemed to be growing inside the wall. No matter how they dragged it, it would not move at all.

The two officers were worried that they would lose their horses and would not be able to deliver the goods when they returned, so they had no choice but to put down their dignity and beg Ji Xiaotang.

Seeing that they lowered their heads, Ji Xiaotang stopped embarrassing them. I saw him pulling the horse's tail, no matter how hard he used it, he pulled it gently, and the horse came out.

When he arrived at the place where he was assigned to the army in Heilongjiang, Ji Xiaotang had a good relationship with a certain general.

One day, Ji Xiaotang suddenly cried to the general and said, "The fate between you and me is over. I don't know when we will see each other again!"

After saying that, he waved goodbye to the general.

The general wanted to persuade him to stay, but Ji Xiaotang refused.

I saw Ji Xiaotang slowly rising into the sky.

The general was shocked and rushed to his tent to check, only to see that Ji Xiaotang was dead!
