Divined on Geng: Must not arrive (then). 1 329 Reading as ji 即 “to approach”. 330 I read “west” as the prepositioned object of the verb zhi 至 “to arrive”; compare with 亡其 至南 “Not likely have arrival south” (159.2). 至is written upside down in these two divinations, and perhaps sportively to convey arriving at a place that is not where the diviner and his pa- tron are located. It is written right side up in the divination immediately before it about wheth- er affliction would befall Wei. HYZ 212 | 219
