Wen Wan reached out and pulled Jia Xibei behind her, saying, "Stop wasting time, let me see what you have!"
Jia Xibei didn't keep the secret any longer. He unzipped his bag, reached in and took something out, and shouted with a smile: "Clang clang clang clang!"
Wen Wan looked at the thing in her hand with a frown on her face. After a long silence, she asked, "Can you tell me why you took it when there are so many good things in my house?"
"What's wrong? Isn't it good?" Jia Xibei asked her seriously.
Then he gently shook the peach wood sword in his hand and said confidently, "The ancients once said, 'If you want to do your work well, you must first sharpen your tools.' That's why I gave you a weapon!"
Wen Wan half-raised her head and sighed deeply, "There's nothing wrong with holding a weapon, but you're holding such a small weapon. Do you expect me to use it to confuse the other party?"
That’s right, what Jasper was holding was a miniature peach wood sword, which was exactly the size of a child’s sword and was not suitable for adults to use at all.
Wen Wan was having a headache at this moment. When she went to buy the peach wood sword, the store had swords of all sizes. She saw that this mini peach wood sword was cute, so she bought it.
She really never expected that Jia Xibe would leave so many normal-sized ones and choose to take this mini version. It was really a headache!
"Huh?" Jia Xibei exclaimed in confusion, then spoke seriously, "Don't you cultivators all have the ability to make your weapons bigger or smaller?"
"...Thank you! I really do!" Wen Wan rolled her eyes upon hearing this. "I've lived for so many years and never knew I could make weapons bigger or smaller. You're truly audacious!"
After she finished speaking, she gritted her teeth and asked, "Who told you that I can make weapons bigger or smaller? I'm going to kill him right now!"
Jia Xibei scratched his head awkwardly and answered truthfully, "Isn't that how it's played out in TV dramas? The protagonist goes to the armory to look for a suitable weapon, but by some strange coincidence, he picks the most insignificant one, and then discovers it's actually the most powerful one!"
Wen Wan was left in a state of confusion, "You should really watch less TV! TV dramas are really harmful!!"
"Didn't I tell you last time that I'm a human, not a god!" She repeated helplessly, "If I had this ability, would I still be trapped here?"
"...Although you are a human being, it doesn't stop me from thinking you are a god!" Jia Xibe said very seriously.
Wen Wan: “…”
Absolutely amazing, absolutely amazing, this train of thought is truly amazing!! The fan filter is killing people!!!
Looking at her helpless expression, Jia Xibei knew that he had meant well but ended up doing something bad, so he quietly began to make amends for himself.
She forcefully stuffed the miniature peach wood sword into Wen Wan's hand, stifling a laugh and saying, "It's better to have it than not to have it. Just make do with it!"
All right! That makes sense! Wen Wan sighed as she held the miniature peach wood sword, then began to swing it with determination.
She was a little uncomfortable with the size at first, and it always felt awkward to use, but later she just accepted it! Anyway, it is definitely better than nothing!
At this moment, Jia Xibei suddenly laughed out loud, "Hahahaha!"
Wen Wan had just killed a group of wandering spirits and took advantage of this opportunity to look at her and asked in confusion, "What are you laughing at?"
Jia Xibei quickly waved at her, then covered her mouth tightly to stop laughing, but not long after she stopped, she couldn't help laughing again.
She reached out to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes and explained with a chuckle, "I'm sorry, I didn't want to laugh, but your picture is so funny! It's like an urban supernatural drama turned into a magical children's drama! Hahahaha!"
Gentle; “…”
Bad morals! He really lacks morals!
This Jia Xibe is very similar to her in every way except his brain circuit. Not only is his mouth like hers, but even his moral character is exactly the same!
At this moment, she began to question herself. Was she always so annoying?
Jia Xibei was afraid that if he continued to laugh like this, Wen Wan would really throw him out to feed the ghosts, so he had to force himself to hold back his laughter and deal with the wandering soul beside him seriously.
"Ha! Die for me!" She threw the talismans in a very cool manner, as if these talismans were free of charge, and there was a hint of excitement in her words.
Wen Wan shook her head helplessly when she saw this. Suddenly, she remembered her frightened look from before. In contrast, she couldn't help but complain, "Didn't you say before that you were afraid of ghosts? Why don't you look afraid at all when I look at you?"
Jia Xibei was immersed in the joy of being a master, and he denied it casually: "Ah? Are you sure that's what I said? How come I don't have any impression of it?
She paused, then threw out another talisman and said excitedly, "What's so scary about ghosts? It's so fun to beat them up! It's like a real-life AAA video game!"
Gentle; “…”
Sure enough, people are only afraid of unknown things. Once they adapt and find that they can solve them, the fear will disappear and they may even become excited.
She suddenly felt a little sad when she saw Jia Xibei's expression. Although she didn't want to interrupt her state, she had to remind her when she saw the talisman in her hand becoming thinner and thinner and depleting faster and faster, "Calm down!"
"We only have so few talismans, so please use them sparingly, or we'll be out of ammunition and food before dawn!"
"It's okay!" Jia Xibei waved his hand at her nonchalantly, then patted the bag on his waist and said, "I brought all the tools you need to draw talismans. You can draw more after you're done!"
Wen Wan glanced at her enormous bag and couldn't help but shed tears in her heart. She thought, "They must have emptied all her money! What kind of robbery is this? It's like a burglary!"
After roaring in her heart for a while, she shouted with mixed emotions: "Xian Hua... Are you trying to tire me, your idol, to death?"
Although she was not slow in drawing talismans, she was not fast enough to keep up with the crazy speed of wasting. Her hands would be broken after drawing all night!
"Ah?" Jia Xibei was a little confused. Knowing that she might have misunderstood, he quickly explained, "I love you so much, how could I bear to tire you to death!"
"I mean, I draw it and you use it!"
Wen Wan was immediately furious when she heard this. "You draw? Do you know how to draw? Drawing talismans is not as simple as just drawing!"
Although drawing talismans is a basic course for those who practice Taoism, it is really not as simple as it seems. She must concentrate when drawing talismans, otherwise the painting will be ruined in minutes.
The people in the Taoist Association including Taoist Master Li are even worse. In order to calm their minds, they have to bathe, change clothes and burn incense before drawing talismans.
Of course, there are exceptions to everything. For example, her gifted Mr. Zhou has been able to draw talismans since he learned how to do so. No matter where he is or what state he is in, he can draw several of them at will, and the quality of his drawings is better than those of others who draw carefully.
But Jia Xibe probably doesn't have this kind of talent...right?
