Chapter 1249: Giving Her Enough Trust

Meng Xinian recalled the magical cups painted by Chiang Xiao.

Chiang Xiao had told him that the effect was due to it being a "medicinal painting," with pigments mixed with medicinal herbs.

But what kind of medicinal herb could attract animals to come over willingly?

Even if the painting emitted a scent, how far could that scent spread?

At least he hadn't smelled anything here.

Even if a rabbit smelled it, it wouldn't just deliver itself to the doorstep for a bit of carrot scent, would it?

Regardless, it was all too magical.

He gazed deeply at Chiang Xiao, who sat there waiting for her prey.

She was so at ease, clearly certain that prey would come; she must have done this before.

Soon enough, he indeed saw several pheasants fly over, flapping excitedly toward the painting and pecking vigorously at the painted grains of rice.

The painting was already pecked through; logically, by now they should have realized those weren't real grains of rice.
