Chapter 31 - Chapter 31: Chapter 28: The Method of Fostering Weaponsi (2/2)

Taking out one, she placed it in a wooden box and handed it to Qin Niu.

“I hope there’s no mistake here, right? If you gave me a mid-grade Contractual Talisman by accident, don’t blame me when your grandfather scolds you!”

After paying the Silver Money, Qin Niu took it and examined it closely.

Every stroke was meticulously detailed, even neater than if it had been stamped from a mold.

A faint glow circulated on its surface.

This was a sign of a good talisman.

A talisman without this glowing flow was defective and couldn’t be activated.

“Yiyiyaya…”

She laughed and scolded in response, her hands gesturing in sign language, but no one could understand what she was saying.

“Hehe, 1 know you’re especially smart and definitely wouldn’t have gotten it wrong. Just teasing you.”

It was only in front of these pure-hearted people that Qin Niu felt willing to engage in warm conversation.

He couldn’t quite explain it, but he just liked it.

Dealing with such people was like a breath of spring air, very relaxing and comfortable.

“It’s getting late; I need to hurry and leave the city, goodbye!”

Qin Niu waved at her with a smile.

Now he only had twenty-three Wen Money left on him, and he still needed to spend three to buy something for Er Dan to eat.

Er Dan had helped him pass a message to Xie Laizi, which was a big favor.

It was also a crucial part of his plan against Xie Laizi and Wang Haikun. He wouldn’t forget what he had promised Er Dan.

“Mmm!”

The mute girl waved at him and took out a low-grade Contract Charm from behind the counter to catch up with him.

She approached Qin Niu and took the wooden box from his hands.

Could she be exchanging it for another one?

Qin Niu looked at her, puzzled.

All he saw was her carefully placing the second talisman into the wooden box, then closing it and handing it back to Qin Niu.

As she drew nearer, Qin Niu caught a very subtle floral scent.

It was a bit like jasmine and a bit like rose, hard to describe.

The scent was comforting.

“Are you giving me a talisman as a gift?”

Qin Niu asked, looking into her eyes.

“All ah!”

She nodded her head vigorously.

“Aren’t you afraid your grandfather will scold you for giving away such an expensive thing?”

“Mmm!”

She shook her head vigorously, waving her hands as if not afraid, or perhaps trying to tell Qin Niu her grandfather wouldn’t scold her.

“Why would you think to give such a valuable gift to me?”

Qin Niu certainly didn’t flatter himself into thinking that she had taken a fancy to him.

Her gaze was clear, friendly, with no hint of romantic interest.

She seemed like an untainted, holy and secluded orchid.

“Yingya yingya…”

She explained, seeming to know Qin Niu might not understand, and simply stretched out her index finger to hook it with Qin Niu’s finger and gave it a shake.

This time, Qin Niu understood.

“Hehe, you’re saying we are friends, so you want to give me a talisman, right?”

“Mhmm!”

She nodded vigorously, her face beaming with a pure and happy smile..
