Chapter 57: Sit and Talk
When she looked up, she inadvertently saw Chenchen's meaningful smile, and she suddenly remembered the question he asked just now, and replied, "Oh, no, there is also a Tote Tarot card system." When I was divining, I preferred this set of more ornate Vita tarot cards, which I interpreted with the Toth system, because this is a system that brings together various occult elements such as astrology, the Kabbalah Tree of Life, the Book of Changes, mythology, alchemy, magic, etc., and it is also the most difficult to understand, and there is an Egyptian-style tarot card that I only use when I am devotional. ”
"Oh?"
Seeing that Chenchen's reaction was not as strong as expected, Bai Xinrui was a little disappointed in her heart, she picked up her mobile phone, pointed to a wheel of fortune card on it, and said: "It's really rare, there are tarot cards from the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries in this museum, but I can be 100% sure that they are imitations." Because, the real thing must be the treasure of the national museum. ”
"Do you have any research on ancient tarot cards as well?" Chenchen's eyes and mouth grew at the same time, and there was a surprised expression on his face, this little girl actually completed the generation with the card pattern! How many occult books has Miss Bai, who usually only knows how to eat and dress up?
Chenchen's expression finally gave Bai Xinrui a sense of satisfaction, and she smiled proudly and said, "Research? Hmph, don't say that word in front of me, I'm not," she said, her eyes glancing at Wen Jin who was standing in front of the table, and Wen Jin was thrilled by her cold eyes.
Bai Xinrui was amused, and immediately, she saw Vivian beside Wen Jin, and immediately changed her words: "I'm not...... An old pedant like Dr. Kupa. ”
Chenchen pointed to the fifteenth-century wheel of fortune on his mobile phone and said, "You see, the goddess in the middle of this card is obviously Fortuna, the goddess of fate, she sits in the middle of the wheel of fortune, and the wheel of fortune is in four directions, up and down, left and right, and climbs these four people." ”
Putting down the phone, Chen Chen continued: "I saw the earlier 'Wheel of Fortune' in an ancient history book, I remember that the goddess of fate on that card was blindfolded and stepped on a sphere, and the tarot card of the wheel of fate in your hand is no longer the goddess of fate, and the people who climb in the four directions have also become four animals......"
Chenchen asked, not so much to understand his future fate, but to be curious about the knowledge of tarot cards itself.
This is probably going to school A, and mingling with many top students all day long, infecting their curiosity and wanting to ask about everything.
Later generations diverged in their interpretation of the Wheel of Fortune, trying to incorporate astrological theories, gossip and religious teachings into the card, and a German painter in the 16th century even painted the Wheel of Fortune more complex than the horoscope. In modern times, people tend to abstract those complex concrete things into symbols, and the wheel of fortune you see has appeared......" said as he said, holding the tarot card in front of Chenchen between two fingers and showing it to him.
Then, she picked up Chenchen's mobile phone again, lit up the screen, and handed it to Chenchen: "The reason why I say that this is a tarot card from the fifteenth or sixteenth century is because its composition is quite close to the tarot cards of later generations. Look at the goddess's facial features on that card......"
Chen Chen stared at the face of the goddess on the card, and couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine, and said, "Why not...... Eyes ......"
"Yes, fate itself is blind and uncontrollable."
Bai Xinrui said with a chuckle and said, "In the ancient tarot cards, the four people crawling on the wheel of fortune all have words next to them. The person on the left side of the wheel who is climbing up is "I shall reign." (I will rule); The figure above the wheel reads "I reign." (I am ruled); The figure on the right side of the wheel is climbing down, "I have reigned." (I have ruled); The figure under the wheel is "I don't reign." (I no longer rule). Later generations, in order to show that these people who were at the mercy of fate were stupid, painted them as animals. ”
After saying all this, Bai Xinrui was obviously thirsty, so she picked up a glass of grape juice drink on the table and drank it all.
The students gathered around the table saw that the two of them were chatting and talking off topic, and they all looked at their watches anxiously, it was not far from the time of the costume competition, and they were still waiting for divination. So, coughing and squeezing their eyes again, urging them to get to the point quickly.
"So, your conclusion is......" Chenchen looked at the tarot card from the Middle Ages on the mobile phone screen, and then looked at the huge roulette with golden cards on the table, like a person sailing on the sea and losing his direction, and his heart was even more confused, where did the wheel of fortune want to envelop him?
Bai Xinrui looked at Chenchen's eyes and said word by word: "What you expect, fate will eventually give you, and what fate gives you, she will eventually take away ......"
No one expected that the time to solve the cards was not one-tenth of the time to sit and talk about it, and everyone was amazed by Bai Xinrui's willfulness again.
After counting four or five more classmates, she stretched her waist, got up from her chair, and said, "No, I have revealed too many heavenly opportunities tonight, and I can't count it anymore." ”
Kevin wasted no time in walking over and was ready to help her, but Lauren and Daniel did.
Since the last Yuyou rumor incident, Bai Xinrui has instinctively been jealous of Lauren, and when she saw her ghost bride makeup today, she felt even more terrifying, and couldn't help lowering her eyes.
Daniel didn't speak to Bai Xinrui, but said to Kevin: "Lauren admires Stella's superb divination, can you let her be tired of divining for Lauren again." ”
Standing in front of this handsome 11th grade basketball captain and the school's hot sports star, Kevin also felt that his coffee position was slightly inferior and his confidence was insufficient. Look at Bai Xinrui again, he hasn't caught a thorny rose in his hand, even though he is dominating on the court, he doesn't dare to act for the charming princess in front of him for a while.
Bai Xinrui smiled understandingly and said, "What are you still standing for?" Please sit down, it's a great honor to be able to divinate for the senior sister in the last game. ”
She re-folded her spirits, turned the crystal ball on the table with her hand, shuffled the cards again, cut the cards, and lowered her head in a set of actions, as if trying to hide her slightly uncomfortable expression.
After cutting the cards and sitting back on the chair, Bai Xinrui raised her head and bloomed a bright smile, and said, "What does Senior Sister want to count?" ”
