Folk Card Maker: Starting from Painted Skin

#68 - Coincidence or intentional?

Zhang Jingtian didn't expect that his casual complaints would actually earn him an orange card, making him very happy.

This was a powerful control magic card.

[All Shall Float], capable of suspending all enemies in the air, with the duration depending on the difference in mental strength between the two sides.

Moreover, this was a rare powerful control magic card effective on both card creators and heroic spirits.

This kind of control could instantly turn the tide of battle or allow him to escape and survive.

Zhang Jingtian held it tightly in his palm, completely unconcerned about being targeted.

Tang You'ai, on his side, didn't forget to instruct Zhang Jingtian when leaving that if he really felt anxious, he should seek his help immediately.

"Director Tang, don't worry, I'm very afraid of death. If there's a problem, I'll notify you immediately!"

After saying that, Zhang Jingtian went home.

On the way, some ordinary people even recognized him and asked him for his autograph.

When Zhang Jingtian was signing, he asked them in surprise, "Am I so popular now? I thought no one was watching this competition!"

After all, high school competitions have too little appeal for people who like to follow events.

"No!" The girl who asked Zhang Jingtian for his autograph said excitedly, "Many people around me are watching! And the part where your heroic spirit dodged the Mantis Demon, almost letting it kill its own card creator, has been viewed a lot on short video platforms!"

Zhang Jingtian said "Oh," realizing that he had become an internet celebrity!

Back home, Zhang Jingtian felt a strange sensation.

"Why do I feel like someone is watching me? I hope this isn't my imagination."

Zhang Jingtian put his hands in his pockets, lowered his head, and inconspicuously blended into the crowd.

He felt that the guess he had mentioned to Director Tang might really become true.

With a thud, Zhang Jingtian bumped into someone running towards him.

He was actually knocked to the ground by the other person.

"I'm sorry!"

The person who bumped into Zhang Jingtian leaned over nervously and then extended a hand towards Zhang Jingtian.

After the two made eye contact, Zhang Jingtian was surprised to find that the person who bumped into him was actually the stall owner.

"Why is it you, boss?" Zhang Jingtian was very surprised.

Bai Yang smiled honestly and explained, "I didn't expect you to live here too!"

"Boss, you actually recognize me?" Zhang Jingtian asked immediately.

"I…" Bai Yang hesitated for a few moments, then said, "Not many people support me every day, so I remembered you."

"I see," Zhang Jingtian smiled, "Then next time I come, can you give me extra ingredients, boss?"

Zhang Jingtian immediately waved his hand: "That's not a good idea, boss!"

Bai Yang smiled and explained: "It's okay, just consider it as a small compensation for accidentally bumping into you."

Seeing Bai Yang so sincere, Zhang Jingtian didn't say anything more.

"Okay, since you insist on inviting me, boss, then I'll shamelessly go home with you."

Zhang Jingtian put his hands in his pockets and smiled: "Boss, you're not planning to kidnap me, are you? I'm telling you, I don't have much money."

But Bai Yang shook his head: "How would I dare? You're a card creator!"

A hint of surprise flashed in Zhang Jingtian's eyes.

However, Zhang Jingtian didn't say anything at the moment.

He just followed Bai Yang towards his home.

They actually lived in the same building, which was too much of a coincidence.

"Boss, I haven't seen you before. You shouldn't be a local, right?"

"Yeah, that's right, I'm from Fengdu," Bai Yang replied.

"Fengdu?" Zhang Jingtian didn't expect the other party to be from the provincial capital of the Ninth District: "Then why did you think of coming to our Lanruo City? We can't compare to Fengdu in any aspect, right?"

"I came out to relax and travel. It just so happened that Lanruo City is not far from Fengdu, and I haven't been here before, so I wanted to give it a try.

I didn't expect Lanruo City to be quite livable."

Zhang Jingtian immediately said "Mm": "I also like Lanruo City very much. Then, boss, have you always been selling guokui, or have you ever thought about doing something else?"

"Isn't selling guokui pretty good?" Bai Yang smiled: "Other things are too difficult for me. I don't pursue great wealth, as long as I can eat my fill."

As they spoke, they finally arrived at Bai Yang's home.

After Zhang Jingtian entered the door, he sized up the place with the corner of his eye.

The house looked very simple, and there weren't many signs of life, but it was somewhat different from what Zhang Jingtian had imagined for the home of a stall owner.

Bai Yang narrowed his eyes: "You sit down first, I'll pour you a glass of water."

Zhang Jingtian nodded, but at this moment, he put his hands in his pockets, ready to summon a card at any time.

Bai Yang turned around and went into the kitchen, and after a while, the aroma of food wafted out.

Bai Yang seemed to be wholeheartedly cooking.

At this moment, Zhang Jingtian stroked his chin, revealing a strange expression.

Actually, from the moment he met Bai Yang, he had been somewhat suspicious of the other party.

Because some things were too coincidental.

Moreover, Bai Yang actually knew that he was a card creator, but before, Bai Yang had seemed to not care about the world of card creators at all.

Bai Yang seemed like a different person.

Zhang Jingtian always believed that something abnormal must be afoot.

So when Bai Yang invited him, he wanted to know what the other party was up to, so he could prepare in advance.

But he didn't expect that after entering the house, Bai Yang was actually cooking.

Could it be that he guessed wrong?

Zhang Jingtian was about to find a reason to leave when he discovered that the door couldn't be opened no matter what.

The noise of him opening the door attracted Bai Yang's attention. The man walked out of the kitchen, looked at Zhang Jingtian, and explained:

"I'm sorry, there seems to be something wrong with the door at my house. If you're not in a hurry, eat something before you leave."

Zhang Jingtian turned around and smiled, but this time, the doubts in his heart were even greater.

"Okay, then let's eat first!"

Just as Zhang Jingtian sat down at the dining table, he suddenly acted at a time when no one expected.

He actually directly used that orange card, causing the completely unprepared Bai Yang to float into the air.
