âEldest Brother, Eldest Sister-in-Law, morning!â After a good night of sleep, Qiao Zhongxing brought his son to the entrance of the little drawing room in high spirits. When he saw his brother and his sister-in-law, he stopped with a smile.
To his utter surprise, when he looked behind him, he found his niece, who was always calm and collected and acted like a little adult, was fleeing in a panic from a strange looking thing and frantically running toward the drawing room behind him while frenziedly shouting âGo back! Go back!!!â
Qiao Zhongxing was dumbfounded.
Meanwhile, his son next to him exclaimed in surprise, âFather, thatâs a pheasant! Is it an extra dish for us?â
Qiao Zhongbang and Wei Ziqin: âŠ
âCough, Second Brother, donât worry. Letâs go. Letâs head in and take breakfast first.â Qiao Zhongbang walked up and clapped his brother on the shoulders. Recalling something, Qiao Zhongbang took out the stack of 10 storage talismans from his sleeve and stuffed them into Qiao Zhongxingâs hand.
âEldest Brother, whatâs this? Talismans?â The talismans that were sold in talisman shops were very expensive and had an 80% probability of being fake, so where did his brother get this?
âYes, storage talismans drawn by your niece. Letâs go. Weâll discuss it when weâre inside.â
They sat around the circular table, and Qiao Zhongbang explained how to use the storage talismans to his brother. Then, he patted his dumbfounded brother and chuckled.
âSecond Brother, letâs keep this knowledge in our family. Qiaoqiao said these storage talismans arenât difficult to draw and to use them freely.â Qiao Zhongbang nodded toward him.
Qiao Zhongxing immediately understood. âEldest Brother, Eldest Sister-in-Law, donât worry. I wonât tell anyone about the storage talismans.â
Itâs too magical! His niece was actually a rarely seen talisman practitioner!
Wei Ziqin gave a few more instructions to the children before looking at her eldest daughter, who had returned after being chased in a circle by the âpheasantâ.
âQiaoqiaoâŠâ
âEat first!â Qiao Mu ran outside the door again, quickly disappearing without a trace.
The little foodie suddenly said in a childish tone while nibbling on a pastry, âSister, really, really funny.â
Laughter erupted from everyone.
Qiao Mu bounded out of the drawing room and charged toward the main door. That d*mn âpheasantâ kept chasing her while flapping its short wings and shrieking and gurgling.
She summoned it herself, so she had to swallow the bitter consequence herself!
When Qiao Mu reached the door, she spun around and extended her hand toward the weak chicken, angrily shouting, âStop!â
The pheasant slowed down with tiny steps. Then, it suddenly flapped its wings and made a gurgle before spitting out a pillar of water.
Qiao Mu was not on guardâHow would she have known this weak chicken would spit out saliva!âand was immediately drenched head to toe, dripping everywhere.
The childâs eyes instantly started spitting fire!
Her ferule shot into her hand and without a second word, she launched herself at the weak chicken, aiming to kill. âDonât run, you weak chicken!â
âI will murder you!â
âCaw caw caw!â The weak chicken might look scrawny, but it was extremely nimble and clever. Seeing Qiao Mu charging toward her violently, it flapped its wings in a panic and ran toward the entrance of the alley while shrieking.
âDonât run!!!â Qiao Mu was both angry and laughing.
A turn and they reached the entrance of the City Lordâs Estate. Qiao Mu paused her steps, not expecting a group of people to be kneeling in front of the estate.
The weak chicken brashly barged toward them, leaving claw marks on a few peopleâs heads and causing the kneeling people to release shocked yells.
The corner of Qiao Muâs lips twitched from her anger, and she pulled out the Spirit Binding Rope and flung it at the chicken.
âCaw caw caw!â The pheasant felt its legs entangled by a rope and wanted to escape but was pulled back by the child. It screamed while flapping its wings and involuntarily landed in the childâs hands.
