The founding of the Han Kingdom has a long history, and Chang'an City has existed on this continent for I don't know how many thousands of years, it is the capital of several dynasties, and its life span is much longer than that of the Han Kingdom, so few people in the world have long known the secrets of these four totems, and no one knows where the master who carved the totem is sacred.

As the guardian of Chang'an City, Old Man Ye Qingchen was definitely one of the very few people, Chen Linci asked curiously: "Old Ye, the master who left such a means to reach the heavens must be a legendary figure, Chen Che is a little curious about his story." ”

The old man Ye Qingchen said: "The story can be told to you, but the old man has one condition. ”

Chen Linci was puzzled: "Ye Lao has any conditions, but it doesn't hurt to talk about it." ”

Old man Ye Qingchen looked at Chen Linci's appearance and asked with a smile, "Little guy, what is your real name?"

Chen Linci smiled, he didn't expect the old man Ye Qingchen to guess that he was using a fake name, and now he has no need to hide it from the old man Ye Qingchen, so he said directly: "Chen Linci." The approaching advent, the farewell word. ”

"Resignation, your name is not very auspicious. The old man Ye Qingchen said with a smile: "I say goodbye to different past and different people every day, I must be very tired." ”

The speaker has no intention, but the listener has the intention. Maybe the old man Ye Qingchen was just a casual emotion, but Chen Linci felt a trace of sourness in his heart, from being abandoned by his parents who didn't know what to do at birth, to the old Taoist priest who died of illness and left Linxi City, and then to Master Yang Xiudao's soul returning to the sea of stars, he wandered to the Confucian Dojo in the Southern Ming Kingdom, and now he is trapped in Chang'an City.

It seemed that Chen Linci's heart was a little heavy, and the old man Ye Qingchen immediately reacted that he had poked the sourness in the young man's heart, so he stopped discussing this issue and said directly: "Linci boy, since you are open and honest, then the old man will tell you the story of that sage." ”

"Good. Chen Linci nodded.

Old man Ye Qingchen smiled: "Actually, you have all heard his story, and I have also told it to you." ”

Chen Linci was a little stunned when he first heard this, and then immediately reacted, and said in surprise: "Ye Lao, you mean ......?"

"That's right, it's the finishing touch!" Ye Qingchen said with a smile: "That sage has done many earth-shattering things in his life, but I didn't expect that what was passed on in the world in the end was such an insignificant little thing, and it was a pity to think about it." ”

That year, the rune master named Zhang Sengqiu, who later became famous in the mainland, was still a teenager, he rented a shop in Chang'an City, doing a business of selling paintings, the world thought that he was just a weak scholar and painter, the status of literati in that era was not high, so few people put him in their eyes, in the vast sea of people, he seemed to be just the most ordinary part. ”

At that time, Confucianism did not have such penetration into Chang'an City as it does now, and the emperor believed in Buddhism and ordered the Ministry of Work to be there

A temple was built in the city, called Anle Temple, the little-known young painter Zhang Seng Xuan took advantage of the time when the officials rested and ate at noon, secretly came to the temple with a paintbrush, and quickly painted four golden dragons on the wall, these four golden dragons are all lifelike and vivid, look like a living real dragon, Zhang Seng just dropped the brush, and attracted a group of people to come around to watch. ”

People are praising the ingenuity of this young painter, but these four golden dragons have a shortcoming, that is, there are no beads in the eyes, everyone asked him why he didn't paint the dragon's eyeballs, but Zhang Seng shook his head, saying that you don't understand the mystery at all, so he put away the brush and left the temple and went back to his shop. ”

"There is no accident, that afternoon, the official government came to the shop, brought Zhang Seng Xuan to the palace, the Mansion Yin Lord angrily reprimanded him for painting dragons on the wall without the finishing touch, is mocking His Majesty today has no eyes, to cure him for the crime of bullying the king, Zhang Seng Xuan helpless, then took out the paintbrush, came to the outside of the temple, and painted all the eyes of the four dragons, after all the eyes were painted, between heaven and earth, all kinds of visions began to occur. ”

The dark clouds began to cover the sky, the wind began to howl, and the world soon rained majestic rain, but these are still small things, just after the heavy rain poured, the four dragons began to glow with golden light, and the Lord Fu Yin was startled, Zhang Seng smiled and the four golden dragons were instantly peeled off from the wall, and really turned into four golden dragons in mid-air, circled a few times and then drilled into the clouds, and disappeared. ”

The wind stopped and the rain stopped, the clouds opened and the fog dispersed, Lord Fu Yin was so frightened that he sat on the ground and turned pale, and since then he has achieved the eternal reputation of Zhang Seng Xuan's finishing touch, but few people know that this Zhang Seng Xuan is a talented rune master, and later Chang'an City was rebuilt, and he was invited by His Majesty the Emperor to draw the appearance of the four imperial beasts on the city gate. ”

The story of the old man Ye Qingchen is finished, but the waves in Chen Linci's heart are still surging, and the story of the finishing touch is widely spread, it can be said that everyone in the Endless Continent has heard of it, but few people really remember Zhang Sengqiu's name, and few people have understood the story behind him, the world often uses a painter to summarize him, but they don't know that this painter is such a powerful rune master.

He slowed down before continuing: "In other words, the four golden dragons under his brush have not really become dragons, but are just the incarnation of Xingyuan condensation, and the real power of Zhang Seng Miao is still the ability to gather clouds and call for wind and rain. ”

Old man Ye Qingchen nodded, and said with a satisfied smile: "The son can be taught." ”

Chen Linci thought for a while and said: "Ye Lao, in fact, I also have a shallow understanding of the study of runes, the book says that runes are to mobilize the power of Xingyuan, condense on the rune paper, and then use it to resist the enemy, I have tried many times, but I have never succeeded in drawing a spirit rune, I can't find the door, let alone how to open it, into the world of runes." ”

Old man Ye Qingchen smiled slightly and said, "Silly boy, if you want to solve this problem, you can accompany me to the city for a walk." ”

Chen Linci nodded in response, and then followed the old man Ye Qingchen and swaggered into Chang'an City under the nose of the patrol and catcher.

Old man Ye Qingchen found a pavilion where no one was around, walked in with Chen Linci, then sat down and said, "Chen Linci, close your eyes and carefully perceive the flow of the power of the surrounding Xingyuan. ”
