Yuan Jing stared straight at the door and stammered, "What's going on...... How is this possible?!"

At this time, an old figure appeared at the door, and he was hobbling towards her. The first thought that flashed through Yuan Jing's mind was Hu Lin, because apart from her and Hu Lin, there was no third person in the small courtyard. But no matter how she looked, she couldn't find a trace of a young man.

Yuan Jing asked the old man suspiciously, "Are you Hu Lin, Hu Gongzi?"

The old man turned a deaf ear to Yuan Jing's question, just smiled at her, pointed to his ear with his finger, and then waved his hand at her.

Yuan Jing looked at the skin on his hand like the bark of an old tree, and suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart, raised his embroidered eyebrows, and shouted coldly, "Who are you? Why did you trespass here?"

Hearing her angry shout, the old man made a sound of "ah~ah~" from his mouth, and at the same time kept gesturing with his hands.

Yuan Jing couldn't understand what he was gesturing, but Hu Lin hadn't appeared after going out for so long, and she couldn't help but worry in her heart. Looking at the strange old man in front of him again, he suddenly thought that something might have happened to Hu Lin. So he shouted angrily at the old man again, "Are you a member of the Black Tiger Gang?

As soon as the words fell, the Zixiao Sword appeared in Yuan Jing's hand. When the old man saw that she had taken out her weapon, his hands were even more flustered, and his mouth kept making "ahhhh

Seeing that he still refused to speak, Yuan Jing raised the Zixiao Sword in his hand. But when she raised her sword above her chest, a snow-white figure flashed from behind the old man, and a little fox smiled mischievously at her. Seeing the midnight star on the little fox's neck, Yuan Jing took the Zixiao Sword, and the anger on his face turned into shock again.

Seeing the change in the expression on Yuan Jing's face, the old man showed a satisfied smile and said slowly, "Miss Yuan, what do you think of my image?

"Hu Gongzi?!" Hearing Hu Lin's voice coming from the old man's throat, Yuan Jing couldn't help but be shocked.

"It's under the ......," Hu Lin said, twitching the beard on his chin and nodding.

"Childe's disguise technique is indeed magical, but how long can Childe last in the form of this old man? Yuan Jing saw such a magical disguise technique for the first time, but she was worried that this disguise technique would not last, so she expressed her worries.

Seeing that there were still doubts on her face, Hu Lin wiped his face, and his original handsome appearance appeared, but there was an extra mask as thin as a cicada's wings in his hand.

Handing the mask in his hand to Yuan Jing, Hu Lin smiled and said, "This mask is from the hand of a master, as for which master, I can't say." With this mask, as long as I don't take it off, I can keep the old man's appearance forever. ”

Yuan Jing took the mask, looked at it carefully, and then put the mask on her face. Suddenly, the appearance of the old man just now appeared on her face. Yuan Jing took out the mirror and looked at it, and a surprised old man's face appeared in the mirror.

The white little hand touched the old cheek, and Yuan Jing felt that what her hand was touching was the face of a real old man. She rubbed it again, and found that the mask seemed to melt into the skin of her face, and she didn't realize that it was a mask.

Hu Lin saw that the suspicion on Yuan Jing's face slowly disappeared, and stretched out his palm to gently wipe her face, and the mask fell off.

After feeling the magic of the mask, Yuan Jing nodded slowly and said, "With this magical mask, it is not difficult to blend in with Juxian Zhai. It's just that Childe seems to have planned to do so for a long time, and he only got this booklet last night, right?"

Hu Lin was afraid that Yuan Jing would think too much, so he explained, "Miss Yuan thinks too much, this booklet was indeed accidentally obtained by me last night, and I only took it out at noon today." As for wanting to get into Juxianzhai, I decided after reading the contents of the booklet. ”

The booklet in Yuan Jing's hand is the roster of Juxianzhai's servants, which records the detailed information of all the servants in Juxianzhai. Of course, there are also records of Yue Qingshan's personal servants in this booklet, but it is more special. According to the roster, after Yue Qingshan came to Lincheng, there were three servants, and all three of them were deaf and dumb old men. Just a few days earlier, his third servant had died of illness. Now Juxianzhai is looking for a servant for him, but Yue Qingshan's request is still a deaf and dumb old man.

After listening to Hu Lin's words, Yuan Jing knew that he was thinking too much, so he closed the booklet and said with a slight apology, "How did Hu Gongzi get into Juxianzhai? Could it be that he wants to go directly to Juxianzhai and apply for Yue Qingshan's servant?"

"Of course not! People like Yue Qingshan are generally suspicious by nature, and if they take the initiative to send them to the door, they will definitely investigate me carefully. Hell knows if they had any special way of finding out if I was disguised. If he could find me on his own, it would be a different story. ”

Although what Hu Lin said was very reasonable, Yuan Jing still couldn't understand what he wanted to do, so he asked suspiciously, "But how can I let him find out and take the initiative to invite you?"

"You also have to trouble Miss Yuan, help me inquire about Yue Qingshan's whereabouts every day, I have my own way to let him take the initiative to invite me. ”

"Childe's request is not difficult, I will personally investigate tomorrow. ”

"Then thank you Miss Yuan! It's not early, let's have dinner first, I haven't even eaten lunch yet......

"Huh...... It's the little sister who is sluggish, so I'll go and prepare dinner for my son. After saying that, Yuan Jing got up and went to the kitchen.

After dinner, Hulin went into his room and began to study the art of carving. This carving technique is the basis of the "Heavenly Secret Technique", so among the tools that Yuan Jing bought for him there are three carving knives. Taking out the bronze wood and carving knife, Hu Lin began to concentrate on learning the art of carving.

In fact, Hu Lin made the decision to go to Juxianzhai to collect evidence, in addition to making trouble with Yue Qingshan, he also had another plan. He had just come out of the Demon Valley, and he didn't know much about the things in the world. And in his heart, what he wants to know most is a world different from the Demon Suppression Valley. Although during his upbringing, the master kept telling him beautiful stories in the world, these stories were also the biggest reason why he left the Demon Suppression Valley.

And Juxian Zhai should be a completely different place from the Demon Suppression Valley, although their leader is an absolute villain, but this is a gathering place for righteous people after all. He has been in contact with the wicked since he was a child, and he has never seen the righteous man, and he can get to know this group of people by lurking in Juxianzhai.

However, his first task now is to study the art of carving. Ever since he came to Lincheng to study the book "Mystery Secret Technique", he has been fascinated by this puppet technique. According to the "Mystery Technique", the art of carving is the root of the fundamentals, which is why he decided to stay in Lincheng for a while longer.

Hu Lin stayed in his room for half a month, and during this half month, he basically locked himself in his room except for eating. The day after the two agreed on the plan, Yuan Jing handed over Yue Qingshan's daily itinerary to Hu Lin. However, after Hu Lin read it, he thought that her information was still not detailed enough, and immediately made some more requests to her. After Yuan Jing listened, he continued to investigate Yue Qingshan in accordance with his new request.

In the past half a month, Hulin's room has been filled with small foxes carved out of red copper wood. If you look closely, these wood carvings are all plums, rough or fine, and there are various postures. Hu Lin's carving skills have improved rapidly in the process of carving Mei'er, and with his current level of carving, most masters who focus on carving are not able to do so, and of course he is still far from the master's realm.

Half a month has passed like this, and Hu Lin finally stops locking himself in the house now. He sat leisurely in the courtyard, constantly fiddling with the wood carving in his hands, and his face was full of satisfaction.

Yuan Jing has always wondered that Hu Lin has already made a plan, but half a month has passed, and he still has no intention of acting. She didn't go to the Chamber of Commerce today, and when she saw Hu Lin sitting leisurely in the courtyard, she walked up to him and asked, "Childe, you won't lock yourself in the room anymore, will you?"

"Hmm...... No, I'm going to start the plan tomorrow, and I'm going to have to trouble Miss Yuan to prepare some ordinary wood for me. Hu Lin said to Yuan Jing with a smile.

After hearing this, Yuan Jing was slightly stunned. He thought to himself, "Hu Lin didn't want to be a carpenter in Juxianzhai, right? In the past half a month, he has asked himself for all kinds of wood more than once. Could it be that he has been studying carpenter's craft for half a month?"

Although Yuan Jing had doubts in her heart, she still did as Hu Lin instructed. She had only been out for two or three hours before she brought back a large pile of ordinary wood for Hulin. Hu Lin looked at the pile of wood in front of him with satisfaction, flashed a sharp blade in his hand, and slashed several times in front of the pile of wood, and the pile of wood instantly turned into rectangular wooden blocks of twenty or thirty centimeters in length.

This surprised Yuan Jing for a while, she thought that Hu Lin locked herself in the room to study the carpenter's skills, but she didn't expect that Hu Lin's martial arts skills were not left behind. When she was surprised, Hu Lin picked up a wooden block, and the carving knife in his hand flew, and after only a moment's effort, the wooden block in his hand turned into Yuan Jing's surprised appearance. Hu Lin did not hand the finished wood carving to Yuan Jing, the carving knife flew again, and the wood carving that had just been carved turned into sawdust and flew in the wind.

For the next half day, Hulin was soaked in a pile of wood. It's just that he no longer uses the fast speed just now to fly the carving knife, but carves the wood in his hand one by one. Yuan Jing was also attracted by his magical carving skills, and watched quietly beside him for an afternoon.

Early the next morning, Hu Lin turned into a little old man, entrusted the little fox Mei'er to Yuan Jing, and walked out of the door of the small courtyard alone. Out of the door of the small courtyard, Hu Lin walked straight towards a lively corner of Lincheng Commercial Street. Unlike the streets lined with shops, it's an open space for city dwellers to set up stalls, but it's bustling with activity.

After Hu Lin came to the market, he found a relatively remote vacant seat, put down the cloth bag on his shoulder, and sat on the ground. He took out a few exquisite wood carvings from the cloth bag and placed them in front of him, and took out another piece of wood and began to carve it as if no one was around. Quietly waiting for Yue Qingshan's arrival, this is a place he must go to when he goes out.

Suddenly the whole market was in an uproar, and almost everyone looked at the entrance of the market. A group of three people slowly walked into the market, led by a young man with a high crown, it was this person who attracted everyone's attention, he was the target of Hu Lin's trip Yue Qingshan.

Yue Qingshan walked into the market, greeting the crowd with a humble face, like a leader who cares about the people, coming to inspect the people's suffering. In the whole market, only one old man with gray hair was indifferent to him, and still carved the wooden block in his hand seriously.

This old figure successfully attracted Yue Qingshan's attention, and when he walked to the old man's stall, he stopped and looked at the few wood carvings on the stall with interest. These wood carvings were not exquisite, but they deeply attracted Yue Qingshan's attention, and he bent down to pick up a statue of a woman and looked at it carefully.

The stall owner next to him, seeing Yue Qingshan's behavior, said to the old man, "Old man, Gongzi Yue has taken a fancy to your things, why don't you introduce them to Gongzi?"

The old man turned a deaf ear to his words, and still carved the wooden block in his hand seriously. However, his voice alarmed Yue Qingshan.

Yue Qingshan held the wood carving in his hand and asked the old man with a smile, "Old man, how do you sell this statue?"

What was puzzling was that the old man also turned a deaf ear to Yue Qingshan's words. This made the people around a little angry, and the stall owner who had just spoken stabbed the old man with a slightly angry face, and just wanted to say something, but the old man raised his head and looked at him with a puzzled expression.

The old man seemed to feel the unkind gaze around him, scratched his head in confusion, and finally fell on Yue Qingshan's body, and found that he was holding his own statue in his hand. The old man smiled kindly, stretched out his palm and swept at his stall, and then gestured with his other hand the number "seven", but he didn't say a word from beginning to end.

When Yue Qingshan saw the old man's actions, he secretly wondered in his heart, "Could it be that this old man is a deaf and dumb person?"
