Chapter 30: Drawing, you can draw with your hands

Zhuang Churan: “The secret realm is so big that we’ll be in it for three months, it’ll be hard to reunite, the initial team division is more important, are you sure about this arrangement?”

Six people divided into three teams of two would definitely be no match for other teams with five people.

But the Yufeng Sect only had these few people, and they didn’t have any intention of cooperating.

Lou Qi pursed his lips and hesitated for a moment.

The secret realm was too dangerous, as the eldest brother, he had a greater responsibility to protect his junior brothers and sisters, safety was more important.

Ning Shiyan couldn’t be taken out alone, and Lin Ya… it was best to keep him with the team, otherwise he would really get lost.

Zhuang Churan understood him: “How about this, you take them, I’ll be a team by myself.”

Lou Qi didn’t even think about it: “That’s even worse.”

If Zhuang Churan was left to fight alone, she could take on anyone, but Lou Qi was even worried that when they met again, her limbs might not be intact.

This wouldn’t work, that wouldn’t work.

The two of them frowned and started to brainstorm.

Li Yang squatted beside them, bored and confused.

She accidentally saw the talisman brush that Lou Qi had casually thrown on the floor.

It was a new talisman brush that he had rarely changed, the bristles were very neat, the whole brush was jade white, and it felt cool to the touch.

Li Yang quietly looked at her senior brothers and sisters.

After confirming that no one was paying attention to her, she picked up the talisman brush, sneaking to the back, and started to draw on Lin Ya’s face.

The boy was sleeping soundly with his face turned sideways.

Li Yang added a beard to him, and then drew a little turtle on his forehead.

The talisman brush without ink required using spiritual power to draw.

Bai Yu came over, “Little Junior Sister, what are you doing?”

The two of them squatted in front of Lin Ya.

He curled his lips and looked disgusted, “What are you drawing, a little monster?”

As soon as he finished speaking, a flash of light appeared on Lin Ya’s forehead.

Lou Qi felt a different talisman aura: “?”

The boy sat up groggily, looking at everyone, confused, “What are you all looking at me for?”

His black hair suddenly had a… little monster drawn with gold thread, it felt like a stick figure had jumped into the real world.

The little monster had six legs and grabbed a strand of Lin Ya’s hair, hugging it tightly.

Then the gold thread burned on his head.

The boy felt his head getting hot, as if he was about to grow a brain, he tilted his head in confusion.

The little monster on his head was engulfed by fire, burning his hair and smoking.

Bai Yu exclaimed, “Wow,” his eyes sparkling, “Little Junior Sister, how did you do it? Can you teach me?”

Li Yang had mixed feelings.

She straightened up slightly, “It’s very simple, just draw, anyone can do it.”

Zhuang Churan was going crazy, “Is this about drawing?”

Lou Qi quickly picked up a pot of tea on the table and poured it over the three of them.

A “sizzle” sound.

The fire was successfully extinguished, and a tea-scented burnt smell filled the air.

The three of them were drenched with tea leaves on their heads, one wetter than the next.

Only then did Lin Ya’s reflexes kick in, he touched his head, “Where’s my hair?”

Li Yang nervously threw the talisman brush into Lou Qi’s arms, “I’m sleepy, good night.”

Then she turned and ran.

Zhuang Churan, who was guarding the door, successfully grabbed her by the collar.

Zhuang Churan grabbed Li Yang, both angry and amused, “How did you do that?”

Only talisman cultivators used talisman brushes, and they were usually used on special talisman paper, no one had ever tried using it to draw on someone’s face.

Even if it was drawn, it wouldn’t have been successful, but Li Yang was an exception.

The girl touched her chin, “Um… I just love to draw.”

In her previous life, she had wanted to be a painter and even spent 500 spirit stones on a tutoring class.

But because the things she drew were too different from reality, she was rejected.

The teacher at the time even refunded her 300 spirit stones and told her to sign up for the painting studio next door.

“Ah…” Lin Ya exclaimed, “Master Brother, my hair is gone.”

His reflexes were really slow.

Lou Qi didn’t have time to deal with his junior brother; the usually calm genius talisman cultivator examined the talisman brush, looking bewildered.

After a moment of silence, the man tentatively drew a talisman on Lin Ya’s face.

Lin Ya: “???”

The talisman was not the simple little turtle that Li Yang had drawn casually; the lines were complex.

Worried about hurting his junior brother, Lou Qi, with principle, drew a speed talisman.

But the spiritual power on Lin Ya’s face couldn’t form a complete line, he couldn’t even draw the first step.

After a while, Lin Ya touched his burnt hair, he wasn’t angry, he just reached out to Li Yang, “Little Junior Sister, you should at least treat me to a meal.”

Li Yang handed him a meat sandwich she had made herself; the meat was from a demon beast, but she had extracted it so many times recently that she was very skilled and could extract it to a level they could eat.

Since eating the food made by his junior sister, the boy had a new outlook on life. Without a word, he picked up the meat sandwich and took a bite, his eyes curving happily, “Don’t draw on my face next time, okay.”

Bai Yu took a handkerchief to wipe the tea leaves off his head, and also reached out, “Me too.”

Li Yang had prepared a lot, one for each of them.

The four of them sat on the ground in a circle, collectively watching Lou Qi struggle.

In the end, Lou Qi expressionlessly put away the talisman brush.

“Let’s rest, remember to be on time tomorrow.”

He gave up.

Li Yang handed him his meat sandwich, frowning slightly, apologetically saying, “Master Brother, I don’t know what the reason is.”

She couldn’t explain it either.

She had a faint feeling, but she couldn’t explain it to Lou Qi.

Lou Qi didn’t reply, he flipped his mustard seed bag, threw a new talisman brush to her, “When we return to the sect, go and study talisman cultivation classes.”

Li Yang was stunned.

Bai Yu poked her, “Okay, Little Junior Sister, it’s rare to see Master Brother loosen up.”

Lou Qi, such a stingy person, wouldn’t change his talisman brush until the last bristle was used. The talisman brush he gave Li Yang wasn’t as good as his own, judging by its quality, it was probably only low-grade, but it would cost at least several thousand spirit stones outside, the iron cock actually gave it directly to Li Yang.

Li Yang had a headache, “I think… there’s no need.”

She had tried.

After coming out of the Penitence Cliff, Li Yang had considered various professions to earn money and naturally tried drawing talismans.

But she was naturally hopeless at drawing.

She couldn’t even draw a few straight lines on the talisman, she could only draw simple pictures, and she would draw turtles into monsters.

She was destined not to become a talisman cultivator.

If there were new professions, she could probably be a soul painter.

Lou Qi didn’t care, “The talisman brush is a gift, consider it payment for the dishes you made for Master several days ago.”

Li Yang once again saw the light of a gold master on Master Brother??

It had to be said that although cooking for Xu Siqing was tiring, the reward was really generous.

Demonic pills, demon beast meat, and demon bones.

Most of the talismans Lou Qi drew just now were given to her.

And this talisman brush.

Li Yang even felt she didn’t deserve it, she patted her chest and promised, “Master Brother, when we return to the sect, I will definitely cook every day, let’s work together to make Master cry.”
