Qiu Qingkong had no memory of the content of the lecture, she scratched her head resentfully, and muttered: "I just don't remember, so I proposed to go together. It's still new to me, and the price is not expensive."

Tan Muxing: "Is there a fee for this lecture?"

"Yes, but only three digits." Qiu Qingkong emphasized, "So it's fine if I listen to it again!"

Chu Qianli nodded: "Yes, some people want to treat insomnia, and they spend more than three figures."

Qiu Qingkong: "?"

The three of them decided to go to the astrology lecture, and asked Qiu Qingkong to book the tickets on the spot, and they would go there after dinner.

In the venue, there were not many audiences for the astrology lecture. Chu Qianli and others sat quietly, waiting for the lecture to officially start.

On the left of Chu Qianli was Qiu Qingkong, and on the right was Tan Muxing. As soon as Qiu Qingkong sat down, she subconsciously yawned, and said sleepily, "No, I just felt sleepy after eating, and I feel sleepy when I feel this environment..."

Tan Muxing said: "... But we just sat down?"

Chu Qianli said with emotion: "Are you sure you are the speaker and get sleepy when you speak? I suspect you don't even remember the appearance of the speaker."

Qiu Qingkong didn't persist until the speaker appeared, she was already dazed and unable to open her eyes.

After a while, the blond-haired, blue-eyed male lecturer and the Chinese female translator came on stage. After introducing themselves, they sat down amid applause and officially entered the lecture session.

The content of the lecture is relatively basic. It introduces the basic knowledge of astrology and the astrologer qualification examination process. It is more suitable for beginners, and it is a little simple for Chu Qianli.

After Chu Qianli listened briefly, she guessed the follow-up content: "So it was about the ISAR certification qualification exam..."

Tan Muxing asked curiously, "What is that?"

"It's the globally unified certification exam for astrologers, which can be regarded as the industry standard of Western astrology..." Chu Qianli added, "Of course, some astrologers may not take the exam, and they don't need to hold a certificate to work mainly in this profession."

ISAR not only tests astrology, but also professional ethics and other knowledge. This is the practice standard set by astrologers consciously maintaining the healthy development of the industry.

After the foreign male lecturer introduced the transit time, he gave examples and analyzed a lot of astrolabe information, but the stern way of telling the story seemed procrastinated, and it didn't take long for everyone in the venue to fall asleep.

Chu Qianli was listening carefully at first. She wanted to know where the red crystal tarot pattern on the poster was, but suddenly felt a slight heaviness in her left shoulder, and turned her head to find that Qiu Qingkong had fallen asleep again.

Chu Qianli was leaned on by a troubled astrology apprentice, and she commented pertinently: "There is no better leek than this kind of talent who is sleepy when he hears it but insists on donating money for astrology to maintain the development of the industry."

Tan Muxing listened carefully, and suggested: "Later, you can wait until the lecture is over and ask the lecturer to find out where the tarot pattern came from."

Chu Qianli nodded.

Halfway through the lecture, the audience was yawning, and drowsiness can be contagious.

Not long after, Tan Muxing also felt his shoulders sink. He glanced back and found that the people around him were dozing off, and the number one astrologer in the world had fallen asleep leaning against him. The lecture was so boring, Chu Qianli fell asleep unconsciously, and snuggled up to his arm to take a nap.

Qiu Qingkong was lying on Chu Qianli, and Chu Qianli was lying on Tan Muxing. They were like fallen crops, and they had no intention of waking up.

Talking about Mu Xing as the only sober person who has no interest in astrology: "..."

Chu Qianli slept soundly, maybe she was really sleepy, her sleeping face was quiet and well-behaved.

Tan Muxing's whole body was stiff, and he was a little restless, he didn't dare to move, so he could only be a pillow honestly, trying not to disturb her.

The astrology lecture finally ended, and there was warm applause in the venue.

Chu Qianli and Qiu Qingkong woke up suddenly, they clapped their hands subconsciously, blending in with ease, as if they had never slept by stealing fish.

"Sleep really well..." Chu Qianli applauded, "No, it's really good."

"I feel like I'm going to have a stiff neck." Qiu Qingkong rubbed her neck, she saw Tan Muxing secretly moving her sore shoulders, and wondered, "Where did you fall asleep?"

"… No."

The audience in the venue left one after another, and the three of them hurried forward to ask questions before the blond instructor left. The female translator originally wanted to help, but seeing that their English was not bad, she stood by and did not interrupt.

Facing the three of them, the blond tutor blinked and said softly, "What's the matter?"

Holding her mobile phone, Chu Qianli pointed to the Tarot pattern on the poster and asked politely in English: "I would like to ask, what is this pattern? It looks very nice."

"Oh, I think it's pretty too..." The blond instructor laughed after seeing the pattern clearly, "I like to collect previous astrology data. This is an astrologer's manuscript. It feels very unique, so I printed it."

Chu Qianli was taken aback. She thought about the author of the Red Crystal Tarot, and hurriedly asked, "Which astrologer wrote the manuscript?"

Chu Qianli got the painting of the starry sky from Qi Yan at the beginning, the author was Lyle Gadbury, and after breaking it into pieces, it turned into this pair of red crystal tarots, but only the part of the Great Arcana.

After the blond tutor finished speaking the name, Chu Qianli realized that it was not Lyle Gadbury, but another name he had never heard of.

However, she once speculated that Lyle Gadbury is a pseudonym, so it is normal for the author to have two names.

"I kind of want to read this manuscript, can you share it with me?"

"Okay, do you have emails? I'll send you the electronic version." The blond tutor said, "There are also some astrolabe materials and ISAR exam content."

Because listeners often come to copy the materials, the blond instructor is not surprised. He also introduced the courses and other teachers of his association, and hoped that Chu Qianli and others could sign up to study.

Although Chu Qianli was not interested in taking the exam, she wanted the astrologer's manuscript very much. After communicating with the blond tutor for a long time, talking about astrology, she finally gained a high degree of favorability.

"Your knowledge is very complete. I feel that you can take the exam directly, and you may have the opportunity to give lectures." The blond instructor admired, "I will send you information when I go back. If you have any new ideas, you are welcome to share them with me at any time. "

Foreign astrologers often exchange information, and some even publish and sell the results, but such astrology books are quite expensive, containing a large amount of astrolabe information, and the price of a book ranges from several thousand yuan.

Because of Chu Qianli's solid knowledge of astrology, the blond lecturer didn't charge a fee, and was willing to share the astrolabe information in his hand. He just made an appointment to chat about his astrologer experience at another day, which was regarded as making a friend.

After the blond tutor left, Qiu Qingkong exclaimed: "Teacher, it turns out that you are at an international level, so I can actually pass the exam just by learning from you!"

Qiu Qingkong wanted to take the ISAR qualification test, so he came here to listen to the lecture. He didn't expect that all the famous overseas teachers would recognize Chu Qianli. She knew that the other party was powerful before, but she didn't expect the level to be so high.

Chu Qianli hurriedly said: "... No, no, no, your problem is not who to learn from, but how to learn."

After listening to the lecture, the three of them played around outside again, and finally returned home before dark.

In the villa, Chu Qianli opened the mailbox to check after returning to the room. Sure enough, she saw the email from the blonde lecturer and couldn't wait to open it to check. When she first learned astrology, she often exchanged information with others. Later, she didn't need it to a certain level, but she was still familiar with this link.

Chu Qianli sorted out his own Western astrology data, and then summed up some experience and insights from watching the market, and sent it to the foreign tutor, thanking the other party for sharing. It is precisely because of the summarization of countless cases that astrology gradually finds out the rules and develops to the current stage.

This subject is impossible to talk about without the experience of predecessors, so many people will collect astrolabe information specifically, from celebrities and politicians to unknown people, and look back on their lives through the astrolabe. Only the more astrolabes you have seen, the higher your level of astrology.

Of course, the astrologer's horoscope is also worth analyzing, and the various attributes are obvious.

What the blond tutor sent was a manuscript of a classical astrologer, which contained the other party's reading experience, and even included the person's astrolabe. Although his name was not Lyle Gadbury, when Chu Qianli looked at the astrolabe on the manuscript, he was sure that this classical astrologer was the one who created the red crystal tarot.

Judging from his horoscope, he is very talented in astrology and painting, and he has a cautious personality. It really seems to be the type of painting with a pseudonym.

The Red Crystal Tarot was created in the 18th century. The astrologer also passed away many years ago. The manuscript is a photocopied electronic version, and there are some graffiti scattered in the corners, which are exactly the Tarot patterns on the promotional posters.

This should be the draft left by the author before creating the Red Crystal Tarot. No wonder it is much simpler and rougher than the real thing in Chu Qianli's hands. The foreign speakers thought the graffiti was very attractive, so they casually put it on the posters for embellishment, which was discovered by Chu Qianli and others.

Chu Qianli learned about Lyle Gadbury's real name and astrolabe through the manuscript.

She took out the red crystal tarot, and suddenly felt that the manuscript contained more content than she had read according to the draft.

After Chu Qianli disassembled the painting of the starry sky, he only got a large Arcana, but there was still a draft of the Small Arcana on the manuscript.

The Tarot cards are a combination of the Major Arcana and the Minor Arcana. She originally thought that the Red Crystal Tarot only had these, but now it seems that this is only half a deck, and the remaining Minor Arcana is not in the starry sky painting.

"No wonder I always feel that there is something missing..." Chu Qianli suddenly realized that this Tarot system is very old, and it is not a common Tarot system. Naturally, others need to explore and use it. She had mistakenly thought that there was no Minor Arcana, and now it seems that the whole deck was split halfway.

In addition to the red crystal tarot, there are many materials summarized by Lyle Gadbury recorded in the manuscript.

After Chu Qianli read Lyle Gadbury's astrolabe, she also found a surprising thing. From the astrolabe, this person did not live a long life like her, but according to the time, he lived through that calamity!

Lyle Gadbury created the red crystal tarot after his death. Most astrologers believe that the astrolabe cannot accurately judge the life span of a person, but in classical astrology there are judgments on the life span, and the records of people who die prematurely are relatively detailed .

Lyle Gadbury was originally a person who died young, but he didn't know what happened to him. He spent the time of his death miraculously and drew a red crystal tarot later. Regrettably, the manuscript does not record his detailed experience, and future generations who want to change their lives cannot learn from it.

Chu Qianli looked at the red crystal Tarot on the table. The surface of the Tarot card shimmered and danced, and the back was covered with fine red flashes, like a dancing flame of life. It looked exquisite and mysterious.

She suddenly had an inexplicable hunch that although there was no record in the manuscript, the astrologer might have cast his own adventures into this deck hundreds of years ago, only waiting for someone who can solve the mystery to appear.

Chu Qianli learned of Lyle Gadbury's real name, and sent it to Tan Muxing, asking him to help find it.

Talking about Mu Xing did not live up to expectations, and really collected some information.

"I checked with the name you sent me. There is indeed this astrologer in history. His manuscripts are basically photocopied, and the original works and some of the relics seem to have been auctioned." Tan Muxing looked at the computer screen, and then The webpage showed her, "but all of them were unsold."

Chu Qianli was startled and said, "What do you mean by unsold? Can you no longer buy it?"

She asked Tan Muxing to inquire about the news, just to find the lost Little Arcana and make a complete set of red crystal tarot.

Tan Muxing shook his head: "No, no one bought it, so the auction was rejected."

Chu Qianli: "?"

Talking about Mu Xing's dazed look, he euphemistically explained: "Well... how should I describe it? Although you as an astrologer think it is very precious, in fact, the market price of this kind of art is not high, and most people don't understand it. The value of those who have eyes but do not know Mount Tai..."

Chu Qianli nodded clearly: "I understand, my senior astrologer is not a celebrity, so the things left behind are not valuable enough, not comparable to Van Gogh and Monet."

Lyle Gadbury may be a top-notch astrologer, but he's still far behind the masters. People will copy his astrological data, but have no interest in collecting his relics (?).

Tan Muxing said gently: "But it's easy for us to buy it if we want. I think there will be an auction in China recently, so we can go and see it on the spot."

"I don't know if there are any cards you mentioned in it. You can fly over and have a look."

The auction will be held in City G, and Chu Qianli needs to apply for a pass, so that he can travel while looking for Tarot cards. She has just passed the college entrance examination, and it is normal to go out for a walk, and her parents have no objection to this.

Of course, when someone in the family heard the news, he still had some ideas, and even called Tan Muxing.

Tan Muxing was startled when he received a call from He Shichen. After he picked it up, he hurriedly exchanged greetings politely and asked the reason why the other party called suddenly.

He Shichen said calmly: "I heard that you plan to go to City G to participate in the auction?"

Tan Muxing was stunned: "Ah, yes, there is indeed such a plan..."

"Talking about Mu Xing, do you have any dissatisfaction with me?" He Shichen said calmly, "If you have any opinions, we can chat another day."

Tan Muxing was shocked: "Eh? I'm not dissatisfied?"

"Since you are not dissatisfied with me, why did you take her to the auction? She has already started planning how to buy the auction house."

"..."

Chu Qianli had never been to an auction, so she was naturally very interested, but after hearing about her travel plans, He Shichen now only wanted to leave home after finishing the college entrance examination.
