The next day, the reward for catching the malevolent spirit last time arrived by mail. It was ten talismans folded into small triangles. Five of them were calming talismans, and the other five were peace charms.
"These are quite nice, they're drawn by the Daoists of the White Cloud Temple," Tianmiao said after reviewing them, then returned them to Cui Wenyan, "Keep them, they'll come in handy. These five are calming talismans, the other five are peace charms, as the names imply."
Cui Wenyan looked at the talismans and asked Tianmiao, "Will they be useful for you, Master?"
Thinking of his master first upon receiving good things.
"Good disciple, I don't need them. You won't need the peace charm either, you can give it to someone else. The calming talisman can be a little useful to you. Sometimes when you're confused, you can use it," Tianmiao explained the use of the talismans to Cui Wenyan.
"Alright." Cui Wenyan obediently put them away, "Master, when is the task you mentioned?"
