Gong Jiamu felt that he might have verified the pregnancy effect.
Maternity effect, also known as retinal effect. That is to say, when a person is pregnant by herself, it is easier to find a pregnant woman in the crowd.
After Gong Jiamu discovered that his best friend was engaged in metaphysics, he suddenly felt that there were more people engaging in metaphysics and believing in metaphysics in his life, which he had never discovered in the past twenty years.
For example, before Xiao Yining revealed that he was a horse fairy, Gong Jiamu felt that materialism was always with me, and science was his destiny. But after that, Miyou followed without hesitation on the road to becoming a horseman, and then Gong Jiamu found out that another friend of his who had known Xiao for ten years was also engaged in metaphysics.
But there are still differences. This friend is engaged in Western metaphysics.
Yes, Gong Jiamu's friend Wang Yudi, whom he has known for ten years, is a Tarot master.
Wang Yudi, under the tutelage of an internationally renowned astrologer, has diligently studied Tarot and astrology for seven or eight years, and officially announced his side job in the circle of friends four or five years ago. As his friend for many years, Gong Jiamu not only completely missed this message, but also never found out for many years after it.
"I thought you weren't interested in these?" Wang Yudi said.
Gong Jiamu said deeply: "I used to think so too."
As a native of the Northeast, although Gong Jiamu grew up listening to various legends and stories, she had never seen them herself. Gong Jiamu is a healthy person with a pure mind, not to mention that all poisons are invulnerable to all evils, and he is also a person who has never encountered anything that science cannot explain since he was a child. After all, she rarely even dreams.
So when Xiao Yining suddenly fell off the horse and became a horse fairy, although Gong Jiamu quickly accepted it, he still maintained a state of respect but not trust in his heart.
Later, when the big cat lynx happened, Xiao Yining swears by it, and Gong Jiamu also believes that his best friend will not lie to him, but as a person who cannot see or sense, Gong Jiamu himself has no truth emotional.
There are cats, but it seems that there are no.
Moreover, the school of oriental metaphysics like Chumaxian is really idealistic. It takes a strong inspiration to sense it, and it takes a fairy fate to touch it. Believe in the power of belief.
In other words, it is difficult to prove.
So when he found out that Wang Yudi was also a person of metaphysics, Gong Jiamu excitedly started his own life-threatening series of questions.
"Excuse me, what was your mental journey when you first started learning Tarot?"
Wang Yudi, who was a programmer, thought about it carefully: "I'm curious. I'm still curious about how this thing works. Then I happened to meet my teacher. She is a very idealistic person, and she is actually different from me. She is quite old, so I just want to understand the thinking mode of people like her."
That's right, Wang Yudi is a more determined materialist than Gong Jiamu. He is so determined that even though he is now taking the path of metaphysics, he is still very materialistic.
"Tarot is essentially a tool." Wang Yudi, a materialist, said plausibly: "In ancient times, Tarot cards were a tool for people to communicate with God. I want to ask God about this, and God gave me a few cards to respond to. Do the translation yourself."
Gong Jiamu got his circuit: "Then you are equivalent to learning a foreign language?"
Wang Yudi approved of her words: "Almost. I learned a method of translation. And because everyone has different talents, some people may translate more accurately and beautifully, while others may have ambiguities."
Gong Jiamu was puzzled: "No, you have already played Tarot divination, and you have asked the sky, why are you still materialistic here?"
Wang Yudi is not guilty: "God, it may be a god, it may be the radio waves in the universe, or it may be everything unknown. How do you know that this thing cannot be explained by science in the future? Human inspiration and spirituality are one thing. A simple feeling, or an ability that can be cultivated, isn't it all uncertain."
In turn, he accused Gong Jiamu of being narrow-minded: "Don't look at it so limitedly. According to my teacher, everyone can learn and practice Tarot, but the upper limit will vary according to the individual's talent and ability. It is different. Since everyone can learn it, then this thing must be a basic tool.”
Gong Jiamu felt that he had no way to refute.
"Then how do you practice?" She asked curiously.
"Compared with Eastern metaphysics, there is still a difference. It is also different from those Western magics." Wang Yudi explained.
According to him, Tarot and astrology are mainly external cultivation. In other words, read more cards, practice more, get in touch with Tarot-related knowledge, learn more and practice more. And the magic class pays attention to inner cultivation.
"The horse fairy you mentioned is probably the same as the Western magic practiced by my teacher. It is like a lever. The deeper one's own practice is, the greater the external force that can be leveraged, and the greater the power." Wang Yudi said.
In his Tarot practice, apart from helping his friends with divination for some trivial matters, he mainly relies on werewolf killing.
Draw cards at the beginning of the game, and then try to point three wolves and four wolves naked, so as to exercise your tarot card reading ability.
Gong Jiamu was dumbfounded: "Are you cheating?"
Wang Yudi shrugged: "I didn't cheat, it's my own judgment ability. Besides, after knowing what I'm doing, my friend won't allow me to play with cards." He said with some regret.
"Sometimes I have a strong desire to win and lose. Once I have the desire to win and lose, I will be inaccurate when I look at the cards. When I look at the cards with a normal heart, I will know the answer when I turn over the cards. It’s very difficult, and there will be problems in the end.” Wang Yudi regretted this point: “My teacher is different, she may have brainwashed herself very well, she firmly believes that her werewolf killing and reading cards is practice, so It hits the nail on the head.”
"Of course we won't take her with us when we play Werewolf later."
"Ah, it sounds like your practice is so simple." Gong Jiamu made an envious voice: "You know my girlfriend Miyou, right? I mentioned it to you."
After Wang Yudi nodded to show that he knew, Gong Jiamu went on to say: "She has stood up for half a hall recently, and she is also ready to go out of the horse route. Now she is going to be driven crazy by the endorsement. What about Liu Ren Liu Yao, Yi Jing gossip, and It has to be recited and counted.”
Wang Yudi expressed dissatisfaction: "We have to memorize it too. There are not many things to memorize in Tarot, but there is a lot to learn in astrology. I have learned it for several years, and I feel that it is just superficial."
Even though he said so, after chatting with Gong Jiamu, Wang Yudi still poked his teacher quietly.
"Hey, teacher, my buddies in oriental metaphysics are all so curvy, do we have any practice of cursing? I want to curl up too and kill them!"
Mercury, Wang Yudi's Tarot teacher, shook his head: "You have learned both Tarot and astrology very well. If you want to learn it, do you want to learn the magic I am practicing now?"
Wang Yudi retreated.
"Well, although I am a person who practices Tarot and also studies astrology, as expected, my concentration of materialism is not low enough that I can live in harmony with the word magic..." he said to Gong Jiamu with emotion.
