Chapter 7 Food Storage

Chapter 7 Food Storage
After calming himself down, he opened the wooden box, which contained a tattered copy of "Jiang's Talismans", a talisman brush, twelve remaining pieces of talisman paper, and an inkstone.

The talisman pen is of very good quality, first-grade top grade, worth less than two hundred spirit stones, which ordinary casual cultivators simply cannot afford.

It was given to him by his predecessor's father who was in the Foundation Establishment Stage. It was obvious that his predecessor valued it very much and even though he had completely fallen, he never sold it.

Apart from these things, the only valuable thing on Jiang He's body was the first-grade, mid-quality magic sword he carried with him. After more than a decade of decadence and gambling, he did not have much wealth left.

If this magic sword wasn't used for his livelihood, he would have sold it long ago.

"Jiang's Talismans" records two types of second-level talismans, seven types of first-level high-quality talismans, and a total of hundreds of mid-grade and low-grade talismans.

I looked at the talisman paper and ink stick carefully. They hadn't been used for more than ten years, so their condition was still good.

The ink is ground into a dark red color with a strong herbal fragrance and a slight fishy smell. It is called Golden Rhino Ink.

This kind of ink is very popular among casual cultivators, it is cost-effective and suitable for most first-level talismans.

Jiang He concentrated his mind and dispersed the spiritual energy into threads, which he evenly transferred from his palm to the talisman pen, accurately controlling every stroke and detail.

He carefully put his pen on the yellow talisman paper. Spiritual patterns appeared wherever the pen went. Most of the talisman had already been drawn.

It seems quite simple.

Jiang He secretly breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed his mind. His spiritual power accidentally fluctuated, causing most of the lit spiritual patterns to suddenly go out.

A piece of talisman paper and spiritual ink were wasted like this.

My predecessor had been immersed in the art of talismans for a long time. Although I hadn't made talismans for many years, I still had muscle memory like instinct.

However, the more difficult part of making talismans is the meticulous manipulation of spiritual energy, which consumes a great deal of one's mind and spiritual power.

This depends on your ability to keep calm.

Jiang He summed up his gains and losses, relying on the experience of his predecessor, and with extreme concentration, the talisman's spiritual pattern gradually spread over the entire talisman paper.

As the last stroke was made, the faint light emitted by the entire talisman was immediately absorbed into the talisman paper.

A first-grade inferior heating talisman was completed.

As the name suggests, the heating talisman is a talisman that can increase the room temperature.

Basically no monk would buy it, it is of no use.

He made this talisman just to practice with one of the low-level ones. It happened to be late autumn now, so it would be nice to keep the house warmer, as his apprentices were shivering with cold.

Jiang He put away the talisman. Before he knew it, half an hour had passed. It was really time-consuming to make the talisman.

I was so absorbed in it that I didn't even notice the passage of time.

As soon as he left the room, he saw the eldest disciple and the younger disciple sleeping snuggled together, with his large robe covering the thin quilt to increase the warmth.

Not seeing Bai Minxin, he guessed that she was most likely in the backyard.

It is too dangerous to be outside at night, so I guess she won't go out.

As for escaping? Wherever these two disciples are, Bai Minxin will be there. She will definitely not be able to escape alone.

What on earth is this girl planning?
Jiang Hexin felt itchy as if a cat was scratching her, and after activating the heating talisman, she hesitated on the spot.

Should I go and see for myself? What if she really wants to kill me? What should I do?
Unconsciously, Jiang He lightened his footsteps and quietly approached the wooden door of the backyard.

The door was ajar, and a white-haired figure could be seen sitting behind a bonfire in the yard.

In order to resist the cold outside, Bai Minxin wrapped herself in a blanket she had picked up and curled up quietly in it.

Even so, every time the cool breeze blew her white hair, her thin body would tremble.

From time to time, she could be heard swallowing her saliva. Beside the fire, there were several decayed animal carcasses. These carcasses were missing limbs and were bloody. No one knew how they were caught.

Bai Minxin is a descendant of a true dragon, although his bloodline is still sealed at this time and has not yet been unleashed.

But her appetite is different from that of ordinary people and she has a big appetite.

I was very worried before, wondering what Bai Minxin was doing.

I didn't expect that after I came, I found that she was just eating, and what she ate was some disgusting things.

The impact of these two emotions made him feel sad.

Jiang He did not hide his steps as he approached the curled up figure.

The faint sound of footsteps on the sand made Bai Minxin tremble all over, and he turned his head hesitantly: "Why are you here?"

Jiang He looked at the blood on her lips. He held the corpse of a sparrow in his hand. He simply cleaned the internal organs and roasted and ate it.

"Don't eat anymore. Let the master cook for you when we get back."

Hearing this, her originally frightened expression suddenly changed.

“Stop pretending! If we didn’t eat these, we would have starved to death!”

"Don't you just want to see us being toyed with by you, being tortured by you, struggling in your hands, to satisfy your perverted satisfaction?!"

Bai Minxin's face flushed and her expression was angry, and she almost gritted her teeth as she said these two sentences.

She was fed up with Jiang He's current behavior. He pretended to be gentle, which made her uneasy. She didn't know when he would show his fangs.

This unknown horror made her even more scared.

And for him to disguise himself and tolerate her for so long, there must be an unprecedented conspiracy behind it.

Jiang He smiled bitterly in his heart. This girl would not listen to him no matter how soft or hard she was. Seeing her crazy look, he knew that she would not listen to him.

I had to pretend to be indifferent:

"Since you think so, I won't pretend anymore and I'll be honest."

This sentence brought Bai Minxin's gradually crazy emotions back to normal, with a relieved smile on his face. Although it was expected, there was still a sense of loss in his heart.

Before I can live a peaceful life for a day, I have to go back to the old days.
Then she could no longer maintain her mocking attitude—

Jiang He quickly stepped forward, snatched the sparrow from her hand and threw it on the ground.

He kicked all her food away one after another, and went into the weeds in the yard to look for something. Sure enough, there were several dead animals hidden in the weeds, and even a stray dog.

They were afraid of being discovered by Jiang He, so they didn't dare hang them on trees to dry. Instead, they hid them in the grass, and most of them had already rotted.

It should be said that the talent of the future Demon Lord is also reflected. He can survive by eating these things, let alone eating humans.
Jiang He was not weak either, kicking them away one after another.

“That was something we managed with great difficulty.”

Bai Minxin bit her lips tightly, but did not dare to step forward to stop it. She could only watch the stored food fly away one after another.

This scumbag's every move was exactly what she expected.

This afternoon she was afraid that Jiang He would find her stored food and throw it away. Sure enough, he did so.

Jiang He had a blank expression on his face. He turned around and went back home, leaving Bai Minxin alone standing there.

But, without these foods, how are they going to get through the next few days? If he stops pretending, he won't cook for his senior sister and Jin'er anymore.
