Rune

Chapter 6 Palmistry
Master Fu is here!

In this remote small town, the concept of welcome is only at the level of beating gongs and drums, and the street is full of noise, so the moment the talisman master stepped into the small town, the whole street was enveloped by the sound of gongs and drums.

Naturally, everyone in the school also rushed out.

As I said before, everyone in this world wants to become a talisman master, and so many students are even more so.So this small town is lucky to have a talisman master, so there is no need to ask the teacher for instructions, Xie Qingwan naturally cannot stop the people in the school from running out.

She also wanted to run out to see it herself.

But just as he was about to go out, he saw the person who was still writing on the seat.

"Xu Baiyan, stop writing and leave quickly." She called softly.

"Immediately, it's just short of a stroke." Xu Baiyan said, with a flick of his wrist, he finished the writing on the paper perfectly, then got up quickly, and ran out of the school following Xie Qingwan.

The bluestone road outside the door is already full of people, everyone hurried forward in the same direction, a bit like going to watch the lanterns during the Dragon Boat Festival.

It's just that the reward this time is a hundred times more noble than that lantern.

The first street at Yuchengkou was already crowded with people. After Mr. Fu entered the city, the enthusiastic people didn't let him go out of the first street.

Fortunately, the sound of beating gongs and drums stopped, probably because he was afraid that Master Fu would find it noisy.

The city official of Yucheng stood at the front of the crowd, and exchanged salutes with an old man in green clothes and white beard.

At this time, the due exchange of greetings should have ended, and the talisman master took out a pen from his pocket. There was ink on the pen, but it miraculously did not stick to his clothes.

Xie Qingwan and Xu Baiyan squeezed through the crowd, just in time to see the Master Talisman swiping his pen and writing a complicated rune on the city gate.

All in one stroke.
"creak~kick~"

Amidst bursts of soft noises, the old city gate actually began to twist slightly. The huge rusty door panel was already full of broken marks, but at this moment, those broken marks slowly closed, and the thigh-thick city gate shaft , the rust began to fall off, and the original color had already appeared after a while.

"Amulet! It's really an amulet!"

During this process, the originally noisy and chaotic streets had become extremely silent at some point. It was not until the huge city gate was completely new that the shocked people finally recovered. The cheers seemed to be louder than before. There's a lot of excitement.

Standing in the crowd, Xu Baiyan looked at the city gate that was shining faintly in the sun, and took a few deep breaths to calm down the shock in his heart.

This is the sign.
Runes are naturally divided into many types, big talismans, small talismans, magic talismans, and divine talismans. According to the Daqin people's study of talismans for thousands of years, runes have become a part of the world's operations, such as river transportation, farming, mining, and construction. , there are shadows of runes everywhere.

Engraving runes on the bottom of the ship can allow the ship to carry a weight of [-] tons, and it is not afraid of wind and waves. The sails engraved with runes do not have to worry about damage under the baptism of strong winds.

When farming in spring, a few talismans can reclaim a thousand acres of fertile land and sow thousands of seeds.When excavating the mountain road, go to Qianmo Mountain and invite a few big talismans, which can make the hard rock as fragile as a dead tree.

In the folk, there are also many scattered talisman masters. Usually, wealthy businessmen build individual courtyards, caravans and carriages are light, and you can hire a few talisman masters for some money. If you are interested, you can definitely marry a wife and take concubines. When you are in love, spend a lot of money to ask folk talisman masters to write you with the Chinese character "Happy" all over the sky, so that the sky in the middle of the night is brightly lit.

Rune Even though Xu Baiyan has lived in this world for 17 years and has adapted to everything in this world, he still has great novelty and longing for rune.

He even tried to explain the rune in a scientific way.

He felt that if he told people in this world that he could communicate with people thousands of miles away by sticking some copper wire and iron sheets together, then these people would definitely not be able to understand.But in the world before time travel, things like phones were the most common thing.

Therefore, if the direction of the circuit is replaced by the traces of pen and ink, can the same effect be obtained?

He didn't know, and he couldn't think deeply about it.

Because now he can't even touch the corners of the runes.

When a talisman master travels around, every time he enters a city, he has to do something with the talisman.Such as reclaiming a few acres of land, building a bridge, etc. After all, my arrival disturbed the normal life of the people.

This is the reason why this gray-bearded talisman repaired the old city gate.

After that, Master Fu put away his pen, waved his sleeve lightly, and signaled everyone to be quiet.

The boiling crowd soon quieted down again
Because everyone knows that Master Fu is going to 'read palmistry'.

This reading of palmistry is naturally not about fortune-telling and asking for a lottery, but the literal meaning, he just wants to look at people's hands.

Sometimes, by looking at a person's hands, one can tell whether a person is suitable for writing talismans and whether he has the talent to touch the way of talismans.

"Master Fu, look at my baby." A woman who was at the front timidly pushed a seven or eight-year-old child in front of her.

Master Fu looked at the child's outstretched hand, smiled and shook his head.

"What about me, what about me?" Another thick man volunteered to squeeze out of the crowd and asked, waving his big hand.

Naturally, Master Fu shook his head again.

"Where are the students from Yucheng?" Mr. Fu Master asked softly.

Talismans are naturally inseparable from pens and inks, and most of the students in the world are immersed in pens, inks and papers all day long. Among those who kill pigs and chop firewood, although it cannot be said that they cannot be masters of talismans, the probability is too low Therefore, when most talisman masters choose talented people, the first thing they look at is the students in this city.

The common people naturally understood this truth, and immediately gave way without fighting or grabbing, and the students in the Yucheng Academy walked out of the crowd one by one.

Uneasy, uneasy, and shy, a few young people walked out of the crowd, feeling a little flustered, and went back, but were stopped by the people on both sides, so they could only bite the bullet and follow the others.

Soon, all the students came to the old man.

"You can't." The old man looked at the first student's hand and said with a smile.

The man sighed without regret.After all, he is a talisman teacher. If all the people in the city are added together, they may not be able to produce one. It is reasonable for him to have no talent.

"You can't either."

"No."

"Or not."

As expected, the students walked by one by one, the old man's head was shaking slightly, and he didn't even stop for a while.

Suddenly.
"You..." Mr. Master Fu looked at the hands in front of him and hesitated for a moment.

These hands are fair and slender, the nails are beautifully cut, there is no trace of dirt hidden between the fingers, the palm lines are clear, the tiger's mouth is soft, and the length of each joint is perfect. Just looking at it, it is even a bit pleasing to the eye.

"You seem to have some talent"

Xie Qingwan's heart trembled suddenly, her breathing was suffocated.Not only herself, but even the students and common people beside her seemed to hold their breath.

"How old are you?"

"Seventeen"

"Seventeen." The old man tapped his thumb lightly on his fingertips: "Seventeen is good, what grade?"

"Knowledge."

"Well, you're smart, you know how to make progress, and you work hard. If you can be admitted to the school in Chaodu, you might be able to touch that talisman."

Xie Qingwan's mind buzzed.

She didn't even hear the shouts and cheers that erupted from the crowd around her.I just felt that my scalp was a little numb, and I was floating, as if my black hair was going to float to the sky.

"Thank you, thank you sir, I..." Xie Qingwan regained her composure after a while, thinking of thanking her, but she didn't know what to say.

The old man smiled and waved his hand: "Next."

Xie Qingwan and Xu Baiyan were the last to come out, so now, only Xu Baiyan has not read palmistry.

He took a deep breath and walked forward. When Xie Qingwan was still unsure, she did not forget to give him a cheering gesture.

Xu Baiyan exhaled that breath and stretched out his hand
The old man looked down.
"Ok?"
