Chapter 49: She's too extravagant!

  Staring at the opposite side with his arms crossed, Qizhao's expression was indifferent, like a robot, continuously spouting astonishing words. Su Yin's jaw gradually dropped, her face shocked, and her mind somewhat confused! Good heavens! Is this the version of the past 5,000 years, the demon and ghost edition? Or is it the cultivation to become an immortal edition? After silently glancing at Su Yin, Qizhao gradually entered the main topic. Due to time constraints, as well as Qizhao being a yin-yang master himself, while Su Yin happened to be a spiritual medium. As mentioned earlier, spiritual mediums are relatively rare, having an all-purpose container property, of course they can also learn various techniques, it just depends on the individual's qualifications! Therefore, there is no need to go find others, first teach her the most offensive talisman among yin-yang masters.

  Talismans, also known as Fu Lu. Commonly referred to as talisman characters, ink seals, and cinnabar scripts. Those who specialize in talismans are called Talisman Masters. Ordinary people think that talismans are just cinnabar drawn on paper with divine symbols, but they don't know that talismans also have levels, from low to high, which are yellow talismans, blue talismans, purple talismans, gold talismans, and the extremely rare blood talismans without paper, which can only be seen once every few hundred years! In addition to talisman paper, one must also have a talisman brush and cinnabar.

  The above talismans, except for the blood talisman, are indispensable and the older they get, the more powerful their spiritual energy becomes. Only after a hundred years can one use cinnabar to draw blue talismans; purple talismans require at least three hundred years, while golden talismans need five hundred years or more. As for blood talismans, they are a special case and rarely understood by people, so there is no need to elaborate here.

  It turns out that being a talisman master is still a profession that spends a lot of money. Due to the damage caused by heaven and earth over the past ten thousand years, spiritual energy has been gradually depleted, except for a few sacred places like Kunlun Mountain where human power cannot reach, natural spiritual energy is abundant, ordinary thin spiritual energy is difficult to cultivate high-quality cinnabar and talisman paper, most of them rely on punching out spirit gathering arrays, condensing spiritual energy, and later cultivating.

  Of course, all of these come at a cost. Su Yin struggled to speak, her throat dry, and carefully asked: "That, that lowest level Huang, Huang Fu, how much is it worth?" Qi Xiu glanced at her coldly and said: "Five hundred thousand!" Su Yin's heart skipped a beat: "Ah? Just those few pieces of paper are worth so much money?" Qi Xiu stared at her intently, enunciating each word: "One piece, five hundred thousand!" Su Yin's jaw dropped instantly!

  She just spent nearly a million with just a few clicks! Oh my god, it hurts so much! She looked down, glaring at her right hand, wishing she could slap herself a few times. You cheap hand! You cheap hand!

  So, Qixiu raised her tone and looked at Su You with extreme disdain. Because she was really too bad, giving her the real talisman paper and cinnabar would be a complete waste of resources. From now on, when drawing talismans, use ordinary brushes, white paper, and black ink first. Su You nodded repeatedly, and even if she let her draw again, she couldn't bear to do it! It's too expensive!

  Zi Xiu suddenly stopped, looked at the time and found it was already late afternoon. She felt a bit hungry. Just as she was about to say something, she heard a strange noise. In an instant, Su Yin's face turned red with embarrassment, wishing she could find a crack in the ground to hide in! The atmosphere was awkward, when Wu Fang suddenly appeared and gently asked: "Miss Su Yin, are you hungry? Would you like to stay for dinner before heading back?" Su Yin quickly looked up, her face filled with excitement: "Really?" Wu Fang's cooking skills were excellent, and she was still savoring the memory of their last meal together.

  Five turned his head to look at Qi Xiu, still wanting the host to agree. Su Yin also turned her head to look at Qi Xiu with an expectant and flattering expression. Unexpectedly, Qi Xiu was not buying it, coldly laughing and saying: "No way! Five is not going to work! From now on, you go cook!" Qi Xiu's slender fingers pointed directly at Su Yin, causing both Five and Su Yin to be taken aback. Su Yin asked: "Why?" Qi Xiu bluntly replied: "Tuition fees, compensation!" In an instant, Su Yin's face turned green!

  Zixiu continued: "Moreover, in the future when you come to learn things, do I have to waste my spiritual energy to make the five elements cook and serve you?" Su Yin felt a bit embarrassed, it was indeed true, but: "I don't know how to cook."

  Her voice was weak, Qixiu coldly laughed: "Are you a pig? Can't do it then learn! Isn't there a ready-made teacher here? What are you standing there for, go quickly! Starving to death!" Su Yin lowered her head and stood up, silently following Wufang to the kitchen, in her heart cursing Qixiu countless times, this guy was completely evil, just like a cruel slave owner.

  When can she turn over and let the peasants sing! Alas, the river is wide and brings tears! Hard work and hard grievances, humbly accept the teachings of the five major chefs. Su Yun originally often stayed at home alone, although lazy to move, hadn't cooked many times by herself. But haven't eaten pork, haven't seen pigs run? Frightened and trembling, after all, still couldn't appear in idol dramas' romantic scenes, dishes weren't burnt, hmm, what a joy!

  Wu Fang smiled and nodded in approval, praising Su Yin for doing a good job. Su Yin felt embarrassed instead. Just then, Qi Xiu shouted from outside: "Hurry up, I'm starving!" Su Yin rolled her eyes and replied, "Coming, coming! Let's eat!" She quickly grabbed the dishes and was burned by the hot plates, jumping up in pain and hastily putting them down to cool off. After a few trips back and forth, she finally brought out all three dishes and one soup. In a rush to set the table, she didn't even lift her head as she shouted: "Alright, dinner's ready! Come eat!" The TV was on in the living room, but Qi Xiu hadn't watched anything for over an hour, his eyes involuntarily following the busy person, his expression cold and gloomy. When he heard Su Yin's call, a hint of a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth before quickly disappearing. The two sat down, with Su Yin respectfully passing him chopsticks. Qi Xiu glanced at the dishes, raising an eyebrow. Su Yin chimed in, "Hey, it may not look great, but it tastes okay! Try some!" Qi Xiu gave her a sideways glance and said indifferently: "It's affecting my appetite. Improve next time." As Qi Xiu finally lifted his noble arm to eat, he picked up a piece of broccoli with his first bite. Su Yin nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, I'll improve next time!" In her heart, she was fuming: "Su Yin, how dare you be more flattering! Qi Xiu, you're treating this like a restaurant! You should be grateful to have food on the table and not complain about it!" Qi Xiu had always followed the rule of not speaking while eating or sleeping, thanks to his strict upbringing. Su Yin muttered under her breath, focusing on eating with her head down, unaware that Qi Xiu was slowly chewing his broccoli, his stiff expression slightly relaxing. Meanwhile, Wu Fang held a cup of clear tea and smiled warmly, as if everything was within his sight yet he didn't see anything at all.

  The next day, early in the morning, Zhiyu was summoned from her bedroom by Su Yun, who dragged her to have breakfast and take a walk. Su Yun was still sleepy and grumbled in her heart: "Zhiyu! Can't you be more considerate? It's so early, and you're as energetic as if you'd been injected with chicken blood!" Just because today was the day of the regular class meeting, she could see Ge Lu.

  Sitting in the morning schoolyard, a slight mist clung to her body, cool and refreshing. Holding a hot soy milk, taking a sip, ah! Her body and mind felt warm and comfortable, relaxed!

  Finally not feeling dull anymore, Su Yun bit her straw and glanced at Zhiyu beside her, finally unable to hold back: "Zhiyu?" Zhiyu turned her head, smiled with round eyes that were very cute, hummed a sound from her nose: "Hmm?"

  Su Yun asked: "Do you have someone you like?" This question was quite strange, the tone too affirmative. Zhiyu smiled and nodded: "Yes!" Su Yun followed up quickly, without pause: "Who?" Zhiyu replied smoothly, not stopping at all: "You!"

  With a sudden sound, soy milk splashed into her nose, and she coughed violently several times. Su Yun said seriously: "You like Lu Ge!" In the blink of an eye, Zhiyu's face turned bright red, even her neck was flushed with color.

  Su Yun stared in shock, thinking to herself: My good girl! Usually looking at Zhiyu being so mischievous, how could she be so innocent when it really happened? Zhiyu coughed dryly and turned her head to drink soy milk. Su Yun asked: "Have you confessed?" Zhiyu didn't speak for a long time, slowly shaking her head.

  Su Yun was surprised: "Does he know your feelings?" Zhiyu suddenly lowered her head, both hands grasping the soy milk cup tightly, her face pale. Su Yun felt a bit at a loss, wondering if she had said something wrong. At this moment, Zhiyu spoke up, her voice low and soft: "Maybe he knows, maybe not." Su Yun was stunned: "Ah?"

  Zhou Yu turned her head to smile at Su Yin, her eyes shining brightly and looking very beautiful. However, Su Yin's heart skipped a beat. Zhou Yu slowly said: "You don't understand, I and he, it's forever impossible! I can only be his sister, even if I like him!" Su Yin suddenly felt uncomfortable and asked: "Why? As long as you like him and he likes you, isn't that enough? Regardless of whether we can be together or not, as long as we mutually like each other and understand that the other person also likes us, isn't that enough? What's that saying... Ah yes! It's better to forget each other in the mortal world than to cherish each other for a moment!" Zhou Yu was taken aback, staring straight at Su Yin with her red lips opening and closing, but ultimately not saying anything. She suddenly covered her face and laughed. Su Yin was stunned by the laughter, and Zhou Yu's tears flowed as she finally caught her breath: "Ah! Su Yin, you're really interesting!" Su Yin was confused - where did she have any interest? A black line hung above her forehead; the thought process of an alien is different from that of us Earthlings! She could only comfort herself like this. Zhou Yu smiled and said: "No wonder Qi Xiu treasures you so much!"
