In front of Charley was a pile of thick cards.
In the iron box, these cards are exquisitely placed. There is a pile in each of the four corners, and two cards are stacked in the middle. Because the back is facing Xia Li, I can't see the content for a moment. I can only see that the back of the card is exactly the same, full of geometric figures and various lines and patterns, which is a bit like a scene in a kaleidoscope.
"What is this?" Charley looked at Angel suspiciously. Is this special for magicians? Why doesn't she know at all?
Angel didn't explain, but motioned Charley to take it out by herself.
Xia Li hesitated and reached out to touch one of the cards. When she touched it, the cards inside seemed to be activated. They all flew out of the iron box, arranged one by one and rotated around Xia Li.
Until then, Xiali finally saw the contents of the card.
There are four different patterns, namely hearts, spades, squares and plum blossoms. There are 13 pieces of each pattern. Each card is marked with common numbers and patterns. At this time, these cards rotate around Xiali at a uniform speed.
The only exception is that there are two cards in the box that don't move. They are quietly placed in the middle of the box. Even if the pattern on the back is the same as other cards, it inexplicably makes Xia Li feel a sense of solemnity different from the other four kinds of cards.
Xia Li still doesn't know what these cards are, but they make her feel close and always seem to match herself very well.
On the other side, greya looked at the cards with a faint light in her eyes.
She always felt as if she had seen these cards somewhere.
At this time, Xiali did not see any clue on the 52 known cards, so she put the target on the last two cards in the box.
When Charley's fingers picked up one of the cards, a strange laugh suddenly appeared.
Xia Li's fingertips shook, and the card suddenly slipped out. Then a burst of white fog burst out in the middle of the card. A black-and-white clown, wearing funny clothes embroidered with four patterns, appeared in front of her in a strange posture.
At the moment the clown appeared, it was dark all around, like a dark night without light source.
I couldn't see anything. I could only hear the clown's strange and sharp laughter.
When Xiali didn't know what happened, she suddenly stretched out her hand and took out the card suspended in front of Xiali.
When this hand touched the card, the clown who jumped out of the card returned to the card, and the surrounding night subsided in an instant and returned to the bright world again.
Xiali recovered from her trance and found that the person holding the card was greya, who had been a spectator nearby.
At this time, greya is holding the card that jumped out of the black-and-white clown, frowning and studying.
"This card seems to have appeared in... Sleepless city?" Greya whispered with rare solemnity.
Sleepless city? Xia Li hasn't responded yet. Does she mean the sleepless city that has fallen in Yongye country, or the sleepless city that was forced to leave Yongye country and rebuild a new city?
Charley didn't know what she meant, but Angel knew what Gloria said.
A demon from the nightmare world - Clown card, or ghost card.
"Have you seen this card?" Angel said curiously that the clown card was accidentally released by him in the night devil city of the dark devil country. Later, it is said that he went to the eternal night country with the fox harp bearer and the frog chanter, but Angel didn't see it in the sleepless city.
Greya shook her head: "I haven't seen it, but the candy house also has its own internal information channel. I know that similar cards have appeared in sleepless city... Cards, but they seem to be much larger than yours."
Greya looked at the clown card carefully. She didn't see too many clues, so she handed the card back to Charley. Charley was still at a loss with her card. She looked at Angel suspiciously, hoping to get the answer from his mouth.
Since Angel refined this deck of cards, naturally there is no secret truth. He didn't sell off and said directly, "this is a deck of playing cards."
What are playing cards? It's the first time Charley has heard of such a strange name. Although she has a vague sense of closeness, will the magician really need this kind of prop? Also, what is the function of this deck of playing cards?
Although Xiali didn't ask these questions, her eyes have explained everything.
Angel thought, "in a very distant place, although it is very far away from the wizard world, there has also developed the profession of magician. Poker is a kind of hand or tool card of magician."
"Magicians use playing cards to develop a series of magic, which is collectively referred to as card magic."
Although Xia Li heard of card magic for the first time, as a respected magician, looking at the playing cards around her, these cards are full of numbers, patterns and patterns, and there are hidden logical connections. From her point of view, she may really be able to develop a series of wonderful magic.
Angel: "I can simply show you card magic."
That's right, but Angel didn't intend to fight in person. Instead, he tapped his knuckles on the table and an illusion appeared around them——
This is a grand theater full of high-class atmosphere. On the stage stands a tall and straight man dressed as a magician. Under the stage is a group of aristocrats dressed as very gentlemen. The air is full of red wine and extravagance.
A bright light hit the magician gentleman and attracted the attention of everyone present. He told a meat joke that the civilians didn't understand, but the nobles tacitly understood to heat up the field. When the atmosphere was almost over, he took out a pair of playing cards and continued to speak jargon while shuffling and cutting cards.
The layman looked confused, but Xia Li's eyes brightened the more she looked, especially the magician's elegant shuffle, which was clearly full of a sense of fancy, so Xia Li couldn't help imitating empty handed.
The magician's speech, temperament and behavior, although not the same magician as Xia Li, have their own internal elegance. In particular, the induction of actions, the confusion of words and various hints made Xia Li understand that if this person is a real person, he is definitely a very well-known magic master.
The magician washed his cards and came down from the stage.
The light overhead has been following the magician, making everyone's eyes move.
The magician came to one of the tables under the stage. This table was the best place to watch. The people on the seat were also the most luxurious. I think they were the most distinguished people in the whole theater.
The magician stopped in front of the table, said a few scene words very funny, and then entered the topic - performing magic.
