On the other hand, as Wei Ziqin surveyed the 50 or so baskets, she looked a bit fretful.
It was true that mystic cultivators had an inner world, but could her daughter’s tiny inner world really fit all of this? Wei Ziqin might be a normal person, but she still knew how big a mystic cultivator’s inner world was.
“Qiaoqiao, where are the items from the carriages earlier?” Wei Ziqin suddenly realized that compared to these 50 baskets of food, the 10-20 carriages of goods that arrived this morning were more of a threat. The clothes alone occupied at least 100 or so boxes, so how could a tiny inner world fit it all?
Qiao Mu tilted her head in thought before pulling out four storage talismans and waving her hand at them. “Mother, Shaoyao, help me divide this food first.”
Fifteen minutes later, Wei Ziqin and Shaoyao finished helping Qiao Mu sort out the contents of the baskets into several piles, depending on whether they were vegetables, livestock, etc., which covered the ground.
“Look, this is called a storage talisman.” Qiao Mu flashed the yellow talismans toward them. Then, she ran two fingers over one of the talismans.
After the faint yellow light faded, all the vegetables laid on the floor were stored inside the storage talisman by Qiao Mu.
Afterward, she put away the full storage talisman and did the same thing with the other talisman, storing all of the livestock and eggs into this talisman.
She then proceeded to sigh in relief and said, “This type of talisman is only one cubic meter in size, so the storage space is limited, and you can store and extract things 100 times each. Hence, we don’t need to put these baskets that will take up space inside.”
Qiao Hu, who had come out in response to the commotion, had his mouth wide open in shock like a bumpkin, and he was looking at his elder younger sis like she was an immortal.
Wei Ziqin had not heard of storage talismans, let alone Qiao Hu. However, Shaoyao was somewhat familiar with the rarity of storage talismans, so her eyes were sparkling as she looked at her Little Lord.
“Time essentially stands still inside a storage talisman, so unless something out of the ordinary occurs, the items stored inside will remain unchanged.” After saying this, Qiao Mu stuffed one yellow talisman and one blue talisman into her mother’s hand. “Mother, drip two drops of blood on these two talismans, and you can see the size of the storage space inside.”
As though she caught a hot potato, Wei Ziqin quickly waved her hands wildly. “Mother doesn’t want it. Mother is only a normal person. What need do I have for these treasures used by mystic cultivators?”
Qiao Mu remained expressionless. “Mother.”
She grasped her mother’s hand, walked to a wooden stool, and sat down. “Actually, there was something I didn’t tell Mother about from when I was kidnapped by human traffickers after school that day.”
Wei Ziqin felt like her heart was about to leap out of her chest. Seeing her daughter’s emotionless face, she anxiously held her hand and asked, “What’s wrong?”
“In truth, the person who took me that day is a member of the evil faction. They saw that I became a mystic cultivator at such a young age, so they thought I would be useful and wanted to turn me into a puppet demon, to be at their disposal and controlled as they pleased,” Qiao Mu fabricated without a tinge of red on her face or a skip of beat in her heart.
However, Wei Ziqin immediately turned ashen. Although she did not understand what puppet demons were, the mere sound of it was terrifying, alright! Her Qiaoqiao actually experienced such a deadly event! Wei Ziqin tightly grasped her daughter’s hand and urged, “And then?”
“And then that youth rescued me and gave me several of these storage talismans,” Qiao Mu continued lying without blinking an eye, her face stoic. “The youth said that this place is unsuitable to stay in continuously. The people of the evil faction have noticed me, so we must leave Qiaotou Village.”
