Gu Yanfei touched her chin and muttered to herself, “It seems like this method is feasible.”
Talismans like photographic talismans required spiritual power. Just the little bit of spiritual power nourished by the white jade plum blossom hairpin on her head was not enough. It was like she needed one ingot of silver, but she only had five copper coins in hand. The difference was really too great.
This time, she had also been inspired by the spirit gathering and luck borrowing array. She tried to draw an array on the talisman paper, which was why she could draw this semi-finished product with a slightly inferior effect.
Yes, it could barely be used.
Gu Yanfei snapped her fingers in satisfaction. She was in a very good mood.
She took two more photo-recording talismans from under the paperweight beside her and stuffed them into the bib around the cat’s neck. She muttered to herself, “These are the only two. I have to use them sparingly.”
It wasn’t easy to draw a complicated array formation on this small talisman paper. It had to be done in one stroke. It couldn’t be broken in the middle, nor could it be drawn wrongly. Otherwise, all their previous efforts would be in vain.
The cat stuck out its flexible pink tongue and licked the tip of Gu Yanfei’s finger. It made Gu Yanfei chuckle.
“Meow, meow, meow!” Qing Guang meowed happily again. One moment, she pointed out of the window with her front paws, and the next, she danced around, trying to show off that everyone liked it.
Its complacency and smugness were almost written all over its round cat face.
Gu Yanfei laughed and shook her head, pretending not to understand.
“Meow, meow, meow!” The cat was anxious. It grabbed her sleeve and wanted to pull her out.
At this moment, Juan Bi happened to enter through the curtain. She exclaimed and asked casually, “Miss, does Qing Guang want you to go out?”
With that, Juan Bi thought of something and complained angrily, “Grand Madam is too much. You didn’t do anything wrong. She grounded you for no reason!”
“She has already locked you up for five days.”
The more Juan Bi spoke, the more indignant she became.
Ever since the night of the 19th of the first month, after receiving the news that Kang Wang’s Mansion was coming to make a small engagement request, Gu Yanfei had been “restricted” in Yuheng Garden. Even Juan Bi was forbidden to leave the courtyard. Every day, an old woman would bring them food from the kitchen.
Gu Yanfei didn’t care about this so-called “grounding” at all.
She knew that Gu Yunrong and Kang Wang were each other’s destiny. Even if there were any twists and turns in their marriage, it would definitely succeed. Moreover, she had no reason to stop it.
She wasn’t Fang Mingfeng!
In the past five days, Gu Yanfei had been holed up in Yuheng Garden in “closed-door cultivation”. She ate and slept every day, sleeping and eating. She slept day and night before barely replenishing the vitality she had lost a while ago.
Since she had nothing to do, she drew a few more commonly used talismans and placed them in her purse. She had even successfully drawn this photographic talisman in the past few days.
Speaking of which, this “closed-door cultivation” could be considered a fruitful harvest.
“Meow!” The cat continued to bite her sleeve. Its sharp teeth pierced the material of the sleeve and left saliva marks on it. It looked like it was going to fight to the death.
Cats had always been self-willed and willful. Sometimes, they didn’t want to talk to people and liked to hide quietly. Sometimes, they liked to go to crowded places to join in the fun and accept the admiration and worship of all living beings. Anyway, as long as they liked it, they liked to force others to listen to them.
Gu Yanfei counted with her fingers and said to Juan Bi with a smile, “Let’s go out and take a look.”
Whether she wanted to go out or not had nothing to do with this “grounding order”.
Gu Yanfei left immediately and brought Juan Bi out of Yuheng Garden. The cat habitually laid on Gu Yanfei’s shoulder and acted as a scarf for her.
There were two old maids sent by Madam Gu guarding the entrance of Yuheng Garden. However, the cat only took a glance at them, and the two old maids forgot everything. They only cared about looking at the cat in a daze.
The calico cat meowed proudly at Gu Yanfei a few times, full of energy and high spirits.
The cat wanted to bring Gu Yanfei to the garden, but Gu Yanfei ignored its objections and went straight to the martial arts arena.
The Marquis Mansion in early spring was full of vitality. Fresh green buds grew between the treetops and bushes. Flower buds were budding under the sun, and the air was fresh.
There was no one in the martial arts arena, not even a servant.
When the cat saw two sparrows flying past, it chased after them and ran around the martial arts arena, meowing one after another.
After Gu Yanfei casually stretched her muscles, she bent her bow and nocked an arrow.
She hadn’t practiced archery in days. Her first arrow was a little jerky, but it still hit the bull’s eye.
By the second arrow, her movements were a little smoother. Like moving clouds and flowing water, she hit the bull’s eye again..
