When Boss Zhao heard this, he frowned and thought for a moment before nodding. However, his eyes were still filled with confusion.
“I do have this. Miss Gu, what are you using it for?”
Boss Zhao was puzzled. Weren’t these things used by those Taoist priests who liked to play tricks?
However, his Appraiser Hall had indeed had some yellow talisman papers and cinnabar pens that were relatively old. However, there were very few of them. In addition, only a few people were interested in them, so they became the lucky items of his shop.
He had never found a suitable place to sell these things.
He stood up and returned to the shop. After a while, he came to the stone table with something wrapped in red cloth. The red cloth unfolded on the stone table, and inside were the yellow talisman paper and the cinnabar pen.
Gu Man was the first to move. She touched the yellow talisman two or three times before frowning and shaking her head.
Looking at her expression, Boss Zhao’s heart sank. Could this thing be fake?
This was because he did not know much about this thing. He had only bought it on a whim, but this yellow talisman had cost him a lot of money.
If it was fake, he would have nowhere to cry.
The paper seller was long gone.
“This yellow talisman is a replica. Its surface is too rough.”
Boss Zhao’s heart completely turned cold, but he still did not give up. He handed the other yellow talismans to Gu Man. As these things were relatively rare and he was more interested at that time, he bought them in batches.
Fortunately, he knew that he didn’t know much about this at that time. He was afraid of being deceived, so he didn’t buy much.
Gu Man looked at the next yellow talisman paper and did not show the expression from before. Although these talismans were not old enough, they were enough. However, the effect was probably not that good.
Boss Zhao was also observing Gu Man’s expression. Seeing that her expression was not as furrowed as before, he heaved a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, it was not a total loss.
She picked up the brush and dipped it in cinnabar. She controlled her spiritual power to focus on the tip of the brush and started drawing on the yellow talisman paper.
The two of them only saw a golden light flash in front of them. Before they could react, Gu Man had already put the pen aside.
Boss Zhao stared at the yellow talisman paper that had been drawn on. He looked at the scribbles on it and did not understand.
He knew that Gu Man had some strange abilities, but it couldn’t be that she knows how to draw talismans as well right?
He stared at the yellow talisman paper but couldn’t figure it out no matter how he looked at it. He also couldn’t figure out what was so special about it.
Gu Man waited for the cinnabar on the yellow talisman to dry before handing it to Boss Zhao.
“After burning the talisman, you can become invisible for five minutes.”
When she said this, Gu Man could not help but sigh. If it was the yellow talisman from her era, she could at least be invisible for an hour. However, this yellow talisman and cinnabar were too inferior. This was the only effect it could achieve. In addition, her spiritual energy was not abundant enough.
Gu Man had yet to fully realize how much shock her words had caused the two people beside her. She pushed the talisman in her hand forward and was a little puzzled. Why didn’t Boss Zhao accept it?
“Why are you not accepting it? Could it be that you don’t believe in my strength?”
Boss Zhao gulped and exclaimed in shock.
“This isn’t about whether I believe you or not. Who would dare to believe you? The country has already been established. No demons are allowed.”
“How can i be compared to that kind of demon?”
Gu Man revealed a dissatisfied expression. How could a demon be compared to her? How unlucky.
Xiang Yin, who was sitting beside Gu Man, kept his gaze on Gu Man. It never shifted. It was as if Gu Man was the only one left in his world.
A smile curved his lips. He didn’t know how many more surprises she had.
Drawing talismans was originally a superstition, but when it came from Gu Man’s mouth, it sounded especially convincing. He did not know where this trust came from.
Even if the thing in front of him was something that had never appeared before and could even overturn his worldview.
Boss Zhao carefully took the talisman and stared at it a few times..
