The Charismatic Charlie Wade

“Sounds good, Uncle Riley.”

Mr.Riley was about to leave when he caught a glimpse of a small fortune-telling stall on the side of the road not far away.

Aurous Hill itself is an ancient city, and most of the people here have the habit of seeking fortune-telling, so there are a lot of fortune-tellers on the streets and in the alleys.

During the spring season most every street in the old city is overrun with fortune-teller booths spaced every ten steps along the road.

In addition, there are also many fortune-tellers who run their business from their homes.

These kinds of tellers generally use the so-called gimmick of inviting the upper body of the gods, specifically to help people see gossip of their fortunes, and sometimes to help people drive away evil spirits.

They also do the most work to exorcise evil spirits from children.

The older generation is much more superstitious, fearing their children will be frightened when they encounter the unclean of the world, and then cry uncontrollably.

So they look for a fortune teller.

In general however, the younger generation does not believe in these superstitions.

Some of the older intellectuals are also dismissive.

Originally, Mr.Riley was dismissive.

He’d been abroad for so many years, and never cultivated a belief in superstition, but today his right eye kept jumping and twitching.

With his daughter participating in a military operation in Syria, he was very anxious.

Seeing the fortune-teller, his mind suddenly focused on a hexagram.

So he said to Charlie “Charlie, if you have something to do, please go ahead, I’ll take a look over there.”
