## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when a user wants a traditional Chinese folk divination experience based on temple fortune slips (qiānzi), as opposed to BaZi astrology, I Ching hexagrams, or Western horoscopes. Ideal for cultural apps, Chinese festival contexts, or users seeking the authentic Guanyin temple lottery experience.

## How this service works

Chinese temple fortune slip divination (求签, 签文, 抽签). Draws a numbered qianzi slip from traditional Chinese temple oracles (Guanyin 观音, Guan Di 关帝, Mazu 妈祖), returns slip number, level (上签, 中签, 下签), classical poem, and interpretation. For Chinese folk oracle, temple lottery, divination, fortune queries. Accepts payment on Base or Solana — either network works.

## Output

Returns a randomly drawn fortune slip from the traditional set of 100 Chinese temple lottery slips, including the slip number, classical poem or verse (签文), and its traditional interpretation covering luck, predictions, and guidance — mirroring an authentic Guanyin temple qianzi experience.
