Chapter 141 Reverse the Clown
The word "Joker" originally refers to such descriptions as "funny person", "joker person" and "humorous person". When translated into Chinese, it is "clown".
This is a term with a broader meaning, rather than narrowly referring to a white-faced, red-nosed actor performing a funny circus, as most people think.
In the occult, the word "Joker" has a deeper meaning.
This has to mention a card that originated from the tarot and is different from the tarot.
- "Poker".
This is the most famous and popular card game in the world, bar none.
It itself evolved from the Tarot cards, removing the main Arcana card from the Tarot cards, leaving only fifty-six minor Arcana decks.
Turn "Scepter" into "Club", "Sword" into "Spade", "Star Coin" into "Diamond", and "Holy Grail" into "Heart".
Erase the four "servant "Nine Nine Seven" slaves in the four decks, and then change the "1" in each deck into "A", which generally refers to "ACE", which is the trump card.
"Emperor of Wands" became "Emperor of Plum Blossom (K)", "Queen of Wands" became "Queen of Plum Blossoms (Q)", and "Knight of Wands" became "Knight of Plum Blossoms (J)"
The same is true for the rest of the decks. Twelve famous "Emperor", "Queen" and "Knight" from European history and mythology are added to them to enrich their meaning. There are a total of fifty-two playing cards. finished.
The reason why playing cards canceled the main card of the major arcana is said to be because of the order of a big man. He believes that no ordinary person can be above the king, and the main cards of the major arcana are all above the emperor. is unreasonable.
Therefore, the king of poker, the "emperor", is the largest.
However, only one card from the Major Arcana remained - "The Fool".
"No ordinary person can be above the king, but the fool is not an ordinary person."
——The big man said so.
So far, the Fool, as the only remaining main card, has transformed into the "Joker" in the poker cards, becoming the big and small king, and the poker card is officially set to fifty-four cards.
In mysticism, playing cards, as a variant of tarot cards, have always been regarded as an alternative representative of the Fool.
A considerable number of Tarot scholars believe that the Joker is the "reversal" of the Fool!
"The Fool's Journey" symbolizes the pure "Fool" who has experienced everything, comprehends the true meaning of the world, and finally returns to the original intention and becomes a pure and happy "Fool" again.
And "Clown" is the end of "The Fool's Journey". He did not complete his transformation, and finally fell into a complete sinking. He lost hope for everything and gave up those who returned to the Fool!
The dark meaning it represents is enough to make any magician who understands the Tarot system shudder.
As Furia, who has practiced the Tarot system since childhood, she naturally understands the meaning of "clown".
Originally, like other orthodox tarot mages, she didn't take the "Joker" randomly adapted from the mere "copycat Tarot" seriously.
However, when she observed Su Lun's future vision, Friya had to be afraid.
The "clown" statement turned out to be true...
At the end of "The Fool's Journey", the Fool failed to complete the final transformation... or, in other words, achieved another terrifying transformation and turned into a "Joker".
Although she didn't understand what this meant, instinctively, Freya had a rather bad premonition in her heart.
Therefore, she set off immediately and came to the capital in person to see the "hermit" who will be a clown in the future, hoping that with the power of the "priestess", she could accurately observe the details about the "clown" .
But... it backfired. I didn't expect that in just a few short days, the wisdom possessed by the "Hermit" had surpassed her, making the "priestess" spells useless and unable to observe in the future.
But also because of this, Friya made up her mind.
"The Priestess", as one of the first people the Fool meets on his journey, is the most wise symbol among the twenty-two main cards, and has the responsibility of leading the Fool to the right path.
In the future, it can be observed, but it is not... can not be changed!
"Your Excellency The Hermit. "
Just as Su Lun was thinking about the meaning of "clown", Freya's beautiful girly voice sounded in his ear again.
Different from before, at this time, she had a different kind of emotion attached to her voice.
Su Lun had heard such a voice before.
That was when he was still in Youhai City, and during the Star Festival event, the Holy Star Bishop named Elilian had such feelings from beginning to end.
Su Lun looked into Furia's eyes.
Those twinkling eyes full of wisdom seemed to have a flame burning quietly in them at this time.
It was the fire of a firm mind, and it was the look in the eyes of a "martyr" who would spare no expense for his beliefs.
Su Lun couldn't help but feel a little intimidated by it, and couldn't help but say:
"Please say it, Miss Furia.
The girl's hands supported the armrests of the wheelchair and seemed to try her best to stand up.
Her legs moved slightly, but only to this extent, and there was no further movement.
With a light sigh, Furia gave up the idea of acting on her own body, and instead poured out invisible magic power, which solidified on her legs, like a puppet, and forcibly controlled her legs to stand up. ..
She was a little uncomfortable and stumbled towards Su Lun.
"what!
Suddenly, Furia let out a small exclamation, as if there was a mistake in the control of the magic power, and she fell to the ground and threw herself towards Su Lun's arms.
"Are you all right, Miss Furia?"
Reaching out to support the girl who fell on top of him, Su Lun's mood was a little subtle.
Why do I think this plot seems similar... He seems to have seen it in many works.
For her own mistake, Furia was a little embarrassed and her face was slightly red, but she forced her composure and whispered:
"fine…….
There was a faint fragrance on the girl's body, which drifted into Su Lun's nose and mouth.
It was a scent that could quite arouse his impulse as a male surname. It was obviously not a perfume, but a girl's own scent.
Although he was a little moved, Su Lun didn't make any overt move, just gently helped her up quite gentlemanly.
After Furia stood firm, she breathed a sigh of relief, with regret in her eyes, and said shyly:
"Sorry, Your Excellency, I had some accidents with my legs, I didn't mean to…
Su Lun smiled and said gently:
"No need to apologize, Miss Furia, no man would refuse such an "accident".
Although his words contained a slight hint of teasing, they subtly resolved the embarrassment in Freya's heart, and she couldn't help but feel grateful.
Your Excellency The Hermit is a true gentleman.
Thinking of this, Furia took a deep breath and gently broke free from Su Lun2.1's support.
Then, she reluctantly made a respectful gesture of half-kneeling, clasping her hands together, holding it to her heart, and bowing her head respectfully.
"Your Excellency, according to the pictures I have observed, you are undoubtedly the only noble person who has awakened the personality of "The Fool" in the past seven hundred years.
"My heartfelt wishes that you can fulfill the long-cherished wish of the Tarot Society for seven hundred years."
"However, the picture of fate made me suspicious, and the 'Joker' prophecy terrified me.
"Here, I boldly petition, let me perform the duties of the "priestess" and guide you through the correct "Fool's Journey". ""
She lowered her head deeply, and spoke in a sincere tone that seemed to be praising the gods.
"Please use me (priestess) to your heart's content!"
"At the same time, I also hope that you can listen to the voice of the "priestess" on the way to this great journey and go to the right end!"
