Late in the night, Xiao Cunyu was walking around the Xiao family, carrying a bundle on her back, followed by Tieyi and Zhule who were carrying buckets. She first arrived at the gate, and "pa pa" pasted two talisman papers on both sides of the gate. She then took out an extremely huge brush, dipped it in the cinnabar ink in the bucket, and began to paint on the gate.
The housekeeper got up in the middle of the night and knelt down.
"Seventh Young Master, this painting you've made... is hard to clean..."
Xiao Cunyu was very tired. The brush was quite heavy to lift after being dipped in water. She also had to jump up and down to draw the talisman and ensure the effect of the talisman.
"Don't rub it. It's for luck, protection of the house, and safety. If anyone dares to move, I will tie him up and throw him out!" Xiao Cunyu was extremely arrogant.
After finishing the painting in one breath, keep walking.
Go through the front hall and paste the talisman.
Thinking about where Lin Ruoqiu might sit tomorrow, he started drawing on the ground again.
Zhule was in charge of lighting, but the light was still not bright enough. Xiao Cunyu felt like he was going blind.
The housekeeper couldn't stop him, so he could only go and bother the master of the mansion. At this time, Lord Xiao and Mrs. Xiong were sleeping soundly, but they were woken up. Both of them were in a bad mood. When they heard that Xiao Cunyu was drawing the big talisman in the middle of the night again, they were a little dazed.
This has happened before...it's not uncommon.
"But is it black dog blood?" asked Uncle Xiao.
"No, it just looks like it's mixed with cinnabar." The butler said outside the door.
"Then let him be." Minister Xiao thought it was nothing for the child to be playful. When he was young, his brothers had also been disobedient and misbehaved. At that time, they were beaten by their old father and could not get out of bed for half a month.
The butler hesitated to speak.
I was afraid that the master would get angry after being exhausted, so I had to swallow the rest of my words.
This time, the Seventh Young Master actually drew all the way to the guest's yard! Fortunately, the Seventh Young Master still knew the difference between men and women and did not break in. He just drew a large circle around the courtyard wall and pasted talismans everywhere.
There was wind tonight, but the talismans stuck on it didn't move at all, which was quite scary.
There was a strange atmosphere in the mansion, which made them feel very uneasy.
After the butler left, Master Xiao smiled and said, "You are young after all. You are so energetic in the middle of the night. We are old now and our energy really can't keep up."
Xiong was also dazed.
"Is there something dirty in this house? The talisman Qilang drew before was quite useful. I had nightmares for a while, and then I wore the talisman he gave me, and I got better without even taking medicine." Xiong said lazily.
"He even managed to scare you with his mouth." Lord Xiao was somewhat impressed. "This kid is suitable to be a eunuch beside the emperor."
"Don't talk nonsense, this is your nephew." Xiong came to her senses a little.
Lord Xiao couldn't really castrate his nephew, he was just talking about it.
The couple chatted for a few minutes and then went back to bed.
Little did he know that this incident had changed everything in the family.
There were strange patterns everywhere, leading to a path.
The next morning, when Lord Xiao was rushing to attend the morning court, he almost jumped up.
"How much cinnabar did this kid waste!?" Minister Xiao took a glance and was shocked. Although the rune was drawn smoothly and looked realistic, there was too much cinnabar.
Cinnabar is not cheap...
How much money was wasted in one night?
But he was in a hurry to go to court and had no time to pay attention to him. He could only say, "Hurry up and have someone clean it up. If you paint it like this, wouldn't it be rude to the guests at home?"
