Apprentice of the Heavens

Chapter 288 Runes
"The way of writing talismans is to use calligraphy and other methods to write what you understand and comprehend into talismans that resonate with the world. In fact, I prefer to call them runes."

Li Ming's fingers were scratching randomly in the void, forming a crooked rune, just like a child's graffiti, which was only slightly better than the legendary chicken calligraphy.

Mo Shanshan stared blankly at the crooked characters in the air. If it weren't for the coercion emanating from it, she really couldn't believe it was a talisman.

At one point, she even doubted whether the person in front of her was Senior Li Bai, whom her master admired so much. The calligraphy in front of her was completely irrelevant, not to mention similar, to the original work that her master regarded as a treasure.

Li Ming saw this but was not annoyed. He just smiled slightly and continued: "The way of runes emphasizes meaning rather than form. In your eyes, this rune is like child's play. What about this way?"

After saying that, I saw Li Ming's fingers making imaginary strokes in the air. His fingers were the pen, his mind was the ink, and the sky and the earth were the paper. After a moment, a talisman exuding a faint coercion appeared in the air.

Li Ming retracted his finger and said lightly: "What do you think is the difference between them?"

I saw two characters appearing in the air, one was crooked, like a ghost-drawn talisman, and the other was majestic, like something written by a great calligrapher.

Mo Shanshan frowned and looked at the two characters. His eyes stopped directly on the majestic characters. There was a bit of obsession in his eyes, as if he was obsessed with the mystery of the characters, but he directly ignored the ghost symbols on the side.

Seeing this, Li Ming couldn't help but laugh, and then shook his head helplessly, secretly sighing that he was indeed a bookworm.

As if he noticed the smile in Li Ming's eyes, Mo Shanshan's face turned red, he smiled apologetically, and then turned to look at the ghostly symbol that he couldn't bear to look at, with a bit of disgust in his eyes.

However, as she looked deeper, the disgust in her eyes gradually disappeared, and her eyes couldn't help but look back and forth at the two completely different runes.

After watching for a moment, Mo Shanshan's expression couldn't help but change, his eyes flashed with shock, and he couldn't help shouting: "How is it possible! These two talismans are the same!"

The girl couldn't help but frown, and looked at the two talismans with a complicated expression. She had just sensed them with telekinesis, but found that although the two talismans seemed to be completely unrelated, the pressure and power in them were exactly the same.

"Why is it impossible? After all, the bottom character is just a carrier. The key point lies in the perception in your heart. As long as you comprehend it, even if it is just a light touch, it can be a talisman."

After Li Ming finished speaking, he reached out and raised his hand in the air again. Suddenly a small dot appeared in the void, but the aura emitting from it was exactly the same as the two previous talismans.

Seeing this, Mo Shanshan couldn't help but widen her eyes, and for a moment she couldn't help but doubt the knowledge she had learned since she was a child. Whether it was her master Wang Shusheng or Master Yan Se, who was known as the number one Talisman Master, they were all very persistent in the art of calligraphy.

She had been obsessed with it since she was a child in Mochi Garden. However, Li Ming's understatement directly broke her concept and seemed to open the door to a new world for her.

"Are you enlightened?" Mo Shanshan murmured to himself.

"Yes, if you have feelings in your heart, even a gentle tap is a magic talisman. If you don't have feelings in your heart, no matter how good your writing is, it will only have its form. Do you know why you can't break through the realm of knowing fate and become a talisman? Talisman Master, you have experienced too little."

Li Ming shook his head. Mo Shanshan seemed to have stayed aloof from the world for many years. Although this gave her a state of mind as clear as water, it also lacked some experience and insights. She had never been in the world, so how could she be born out of it.

Hearing this, Mo Shanshan couldn't help but be stunned. A trace of thought flashed in his clear water eyes, as if he was thinking about what Li Ming just said, but he fell silent for a moment.

Seeing this, Li Ming smiled slightly, gently patted the big black donkey sitting next to him, and slowly walked towards the lake with Ye Hongyu.Mo Shanshan looked at Li Ming's retreating figure with a complex expression. Li Ming's words were too shocking for her, and could even be said to have subverted her previous understanding of the way of writing.

Even though Li Ming had left her sight, Mo Shanshan was still looking into the distance in a daze until Tmall Girl arrived.

"Mountain Master, the cloth has been arranged and you can take a bath."

Hearing this, Mo Shanshan nodded slowly and walked straight into the woods, but his eyes were a little dazed. Tmall Girl glanced at Mo Shanshan who was in a daze, frowned and said cautiously:

"Mountain Master, what's wrong with you? The hot spring is over here."

This was the first time she saw Mo Shanshan look like this. In the past, Mo Shanshan looked calm and peaceful, but now he was in a trance and even took the wrong route.

Hearing this, Mo Shanshan woke up from his thoughts and stared blankly at the lakeside in the distance. After a moment of silence, he turned around and entered the depths of the woods.

However, for a moment there was only a faint smell of sulfur that reached his nostrils. The forest in the distance was surrounded by a long yellow cloth, and he could only vaguely see the heat rising inside.

Even this little bit of heat in the cold wind made Mo Shanshan feel a little warm, and his clear eyes couldn't help but light up. Women from the River Country loved bathing most, and she was no exception.

Of course, Mo Shanshan was not that impatient. He stretched out his hand and slowly lifted the cloth, and walked into the enclosed forest with an indifferent expression.

I saw the female disciple of Mochiyuan next to the hot spring inside, looking eagerly at the pool of hot springs among the rocks.
I don't know whether it was the heat of the hot springs or the cold wind outside the scarf that could not blow in. At this time, the girls were dressed a little coolly, and even the cool dance with red sleeves was not so cool.

Seeing this, Mo Shanshan's expression did not change. He was obviously used to it. He found a rock at random and pulled the blue ribbon around his waist. His white clothes suddenly seemed a lot looser.

after a while

Mo Shanshan was soaking in the hot spring with a look of enjoyment on his face. His pretty face was slightly reddened by the steam, and his black hair hung like a waterfall on Ruyu's shoulders. However, he could not clearly see the scene in the water as the heat was rising.

However, although Mo Shanshan seemed to be enjoying herself at this time, a flash of thought flashed across her eyebrows. She was constantly thinking about Li Ming's words, and her mind gradually became confused.

"Senior sister, tell me what's wrong with the mountain master? Why does he feel so weird?"

Tmall Girl glanced doubtfully at Mo Shanshan, who had a gloomy expression. Zhui Zhihua narrowed her eyes slightly when she saw this, touched her smooth chin and said seriously: "Well, maybe she is sick."

Hearing this, Tmall Girl couldn't help but widen her eyes and said hurriedly: "What! Then let's stop messing around and take the mountain owner back to the camp to find the doctor."

After saying that, he was about to stand up, but was grabbed by Zhu Zhihua, who said in a low voice: "This is an ordinary disease that doctors can't cure, but only one person in the world can cure it."

After hearing this, Tmall Girl looked at Zhizhihua who was smiling like an aunt, and her little head seemed to be thinking about which miracle doctor.
