How to treat divination in Japanese biographies and turtle biographies in Historical Records?

First of all, if you have studied divination, such as six hexagrams, plum blossoms, six hexagrams and eight-character Daoism, you will know that divination in history books is definitely not nonsense. Is based on a lot of evidence.

Secondly, for many Zhouyi masters, the cases of divination in historical records are priceless, because many divination techniques in Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties have been lost after more than two thousand years of war. All kinds of divination cases recorded in Historical Records provide research cases for people including Master Zhouyi and many researchers in China Academy of Social Sciences, and provide valuable experience for excavating the development process of divination from Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Among these research achievements, there are famous works such as Jiao in the late Qing Dynasty.

Thirdly, the divination cases recorded in Historical Records provide the possibility for people to study the time and some little-known historical events. For example, during the Spring and Autumn Period, a monarch of the State of Jin went to the State of Qin and happened to be ill, so the monarch of the State of Qin made a divination with a fortune teller. The results show that the monarch of the state of Jin has a short life because of his empty body.

Of course, if you don't believe in divination or you are a materialist, then I didn't say anything.
