"Gurgle, gurgle!"
Seeing that Qin Yune hadn't thrown away the lousy fox after a long while, Xiao Hong angrily turned around and faced away from Qin Yune.
Meng Po ruffled the red dumpling a couple of times and said to Qin Yune, "Ignore it. It's been spoiled lately. It's time to teach it a lesson."
Little Red, who had been kneaded, swayed precariously and then turned to Meng Po, howling loudly, "Guji guji guji!"
Meng Po didn't tolerate it and simply took it, saying, "Let's go."
"Squeak~"
Little White raised its head high and wagged its tail happily around Qin Yune's neck.
Seeing this, Qin Yunie was even more amused and exasperated. She patted him a couple of times and said softly, "You should behave yourself."
"Squeak squeak squeak~"
After Xiaobai finished barking, it wasn't as arrogant as before. It obediently snuggled against Qin Yune's neck and rested its little head on his shoulder. Only its tail occasionally wagged to prove that it was alive and not a real scarf.
The ghost market was bustling with both people and ghosts. Most ghosts would greet Meng Po respectfully when they saw her, and Meng Po would simply nod slightly in response.
They continued walking, and there were noticeably fewer vendors on the roadside than before.
Further inside, Qin Yune saw a wooden sign that read "Willow Shade".
The Liuyin store is quite different from the previous Baibaoge store. If Baibaoge store was golden and glittering, then the Liuyin store is simple, unpretentious, and a return to nature.
As soon as Qin Yunie entered the store, he noticed that everything on the first floor was made of wood, with various carvings that were so lifelike they looked real.
Qin Yunie initially thought it was real, but when she touched it, she found it was all wood.
She looked around but didn't see any talismans for sale, so she asked, "Is this shop really selling talismans and not wood carvings? I've looked for a long time and only see wood carvings, not talismans."
Meng Po led her past the wooden carvings downstairs, "Come on, let's go up to the second floor."
As they walked, Meng Po explained, "The owner of this shop is not only an excellent talisman drawer, but also an amazing sculptor. All of these below are his works."
Qin Yunie was shocked upon hearing this, and widened her eyes, saying, "All of them?"
"Hmm." Meng Po nodded and continued, "If he finds someone he likes, he will give them one or two exhibits as gifts. Since the shop opened, he has given away two exhibits in total."
Qin Yunie was very surprised to hear this and couldn't help but exclaim, "Are all those works really carved by the owner himself? Is the owner a non-hereditary inheritor?"
Meng Po said vaguely, "He just likes it; you'll know when you see him."
Qin Yunie followed Meng Po up to the second floor with her doubts. As soon as she reached the top of the stairs, she saw a man who looked to be in his fifties sitting there, holding a strange piece of wood and touching it around, seemingly doing something.
Meng Po called out, "Old Lin."
The middle-aged man called Old Lin heard the voice and looked over. "Why are you here again?"
Meng Po retorted irritably, "Hey, I brought you business, and you're not happy about it!"
Old Lin put down the piece of wood he was carrying, got up and walked inside. "I'd be happier if you didn't take as much from me."
He asked, "What are you looking to buy this time?"
Meng Po pointed at Qin Yunie, "This time it's not me, it's her."
Old Lin went to the table, picked up the teapot and poured a cup for each of them. As he pushed the teapot in front of them, he glanced at Qin Yune and said, "This young lady looks unfamiliar. Is she alive?"
Qin Yunie nodded and called out, "Uncle Lin."
Old Lin put down the teapot and gestured slightly, "Don't worry, this tea is drinkable."
She looked at Meng Po, who nodded to Qin Yune, then sat down on the stool and took a sip of tea.
Seeing this, Qin Yunie also sat down, took a small sip, and widened her eyes slightly. The tea was warm.
Seeing her actions, Old Lin chuckled and asked, "Young lady, is this your first time here? What kind of talisman would you like to buy?"
Qin Yunie thought for a moment and said, "I want to buy some offensive talismans."
Old Lin narrowed his eyes slightly, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "I do have two such talismans that can be used without spiritual power, which are very suitable for you."
He paused for a moment, then continued, "One type is a long-range attack type, which can damage the target without getting close. Its attack power is roughly equivalent to a lightning bolt splitting a tree in two. This type of talisman is a suitable choice for beginners like you."
"There is also a close-range attack type, which is more targeted and more powerful, suitable for emergency and dangerous situations, but it is more than twice as expensive as the one I just mentioned."
Old Lin leisurely picked up his teacup, took a sip, and then smiled and said, "You can consider which one to buy."
Meng Po, however, was unconvinced: "I remember you also have a talisman that can both attack and defend."
Upon hearing this, Old Lin glared at Meng Po with annoyance and retorted with a slightly dissatisfied tone, "Do you think those talismans are easy to draw?"
Meng Po smiled radiantly, "So she's pregnant? Since she is, let's give her one."
Old Lin retorted sternly, "No! I said no, and that's final!"
Meng Po said, half casually and half threateningly, "Old Lin, I heard you recently got a new gadget..."
Old Lin's expression immediately changed. "How did you know?"
Meng Po: "Never mind how I know, just give it to me or not."
Old Lin turned and went into the inner room, cursing. He came out a short while later carrying a wooden box and said irritably, "I knew you wouldn't come here with anything good! Three million, not a penny less!"
Qin Yune looked at Meng Po, and Meng Po nodded to her.
Old Lin snorted coldly when he saw this.
Qin Yunie gave him a sweet smile.
Although she could tell from Lao Lin's tone and expression that this talisman was quite powerful and that ordinary people couldn't possibly obtain it, she still consulted Meng Po's opinion since Meng Po had brought her there.
Although the three million was a bit painful, Qin Yunie paid it without any hesitation.
After paying, Qin Yu looked longingly at Old Lin.
Old Lin seemed to understand what she was about to say, and said with a stern face, "Only one, no more."
Qin Yunie: "..."
She blinked and explained, "I just wanted to ask if this can be reused multiple times, or if it can only be used once?"
Seeing that she didn't want to buy another one, Old Lin's expression softened slightly, and he explained, "It can only be used once. Its attack strength is equivalent to a god-level strike, and its defensive capabilities can withstand a full-force strike from a god-level player at their peak."
Although Qin Yunie didn't know exactly what kind of power the god-level he mentioned was, the fact that it was associated with the word "god" was enough to show that it must be very powerful.
No wonder Old Lin's expression changed drastically when Meng Po mentioned the talisman; it was clear he was very reluctant to sell it.
However, if it were her in this situation, her expression would probably be even worse than his.
