Chapter 22 "Makeover"
Xiao Xinyi frowned, looked at the scene in front of him, and saw that he had been delayed in the city for most of the day, and knew the direction of Jiangcheng, he was really anxious, so he said to Zhuge Qinghong: "Zhuge Gongzi, are you going to meet your confidante again later, although I am grateful for your help along the way, but I don't want to delay any longer, let's say goodbye, the matter of the Double Holy Gate can be solved, and when I find the senior brother, I will come to the door to thank you, and there will be a period later."
After speaking, he turned around and left, Zhuge Qinghong saw this and wanted to pull her sleeve, Xiao Xinyi opened Zhuge Qinghong's hand with a flick of his sleeve, turned around and carried the internal force to perform light skills and flew towards the roof, Zhuge Qinghong rose from the ground, pulled Xiao Xinyi who had not yet reached the roof, and wanted to bring her down, Xiao Xinyi stretched out his hand and slashed at his chest, Zhuge Qinghong had already prepared, stretched out his hand to hold her wrist, Xiao Xinyi is a woman after all, not to mention that the other party is still Zhuge Qinghong, who is rumored to be born with divine power. He inevitably lost ground in strength, and was soon taken to the ground by him.
"I can solve my own affairs by myself, and I don't bother with it." Xiao Xinyi wanted to bounce him away with internal force, but found that the internal force was suppressed by Zhuge Qinghong's internal force, and he couldn't fight with the strength in his hand.
"You can't even beat me, what do you expect to save your senior brother."
Xiao Xinyi said: "This is the matter of the Double Holy Gate."
"The matter of the Double Holy Gate is the matter of martial arts." Zhuge Qinghong said slowly.
"The group of people besieging your senior brother is a force that suddenly appeared ten years ago, and I haven't found out their details for two years, how can you fight against them alone."
Ten years ago, these three words touched the string in Xiao Xinyi's heart, and he no longer resisted, looked at Zhuge Qinghong, and asked him to continue.
"This group of people has only appeared frequently in the martial arts in the past three years, and they are all doing the business of robbing houses and houses, at the beginning we all thought that these people were just ordinary people who were affected by the disaster and fell here, but after a few fights, we found that they are simply a purposeful and organized team, such a team can never just grab some property, I can only find out that they came here suddenly ten years ago, and they have been in this area before, and they don't know anything else. But guessing that their attack on the Twin Holy Gates this time is not accidental, it must have been planned for a long time, I don't know what they are going to do, you are afraid that you will fall into their trap if you venture forward. ”
Xiao Xinyi's expression eased a little after listening to him, Zhuge Qinghong saw her look, let go of her and took out a small note from her arms, unfolded it and handed it to Xiao Xinyi, Xiao Xinyi recognized that this was the one he took from the pigeon last night, hesitated for a moment and reached out to catch it, and saw that it was written "Zhong has been protected." ”
Seeing these three words, Xiao Xinyi suddenly looked up at Zhuge Qinghong, Zhuge Qinghong saw her expectant eyes, endured the sourness in his heart and said: "Your senior brother is very safe, my brother in Jiangcheng has found him and has protected him."
"That's true." Xiao Xinyi asked in disbelief.
"How could I have lied to you." Zhuge Qinghong sighed deeply.
Xiao Xinyi looked at the man who turned around and stood with his hands in his hands, and he had no idea for a while, whether what he said was true or false, whether this group of people had anything to do with the Xiao family ten years ago, and what else he had found. Judging by the way he looks, there must be something to hide from himself. Now that he knew that his senior brother was fine, Xiao Xinyi's anxiety in his heart decreased a little and asked, "Then how long will it take for you to go to meet that Yu Luo girl and come back."
Zhuge Qinghong was stunned for a moment, and said with some collapse: "When did I say that I was going."
At this time, Xiao Yu'er also prepared her things and came to the courtyard, "Master, I'm ready, I can start." ”
Zhuge Qinghong nodded, leaned over and explained some things in Xiao Yu'er's ear, and then turned around and said to Xiao Xinyi: "You follow Xiao Yu'er, and when we are cleaned up, we will go on the road immediately."
Xiao Xinyi nodded and suppressed the doubt in his heart, since he knew the whereabouts of his senior brother, he could only listen to his arrangement at this moment, Xiao Yu'er walked up to Xiao Xinyi and took her hand and said, "Sister come with me."
Zhuge Qinghong saw the two of them enter the room and said to Boss Ren, "Brother Ren, I'll clean up too."
The shopkeeper still looked kind just now, but he was a little more respectful, and he saluted and said, "Young master, please, this is the key to your room."
After speaking, handing the key to him with both hands, Zhuge Qinghong took the key, patted Boss Ren's shoulder, and walked towards the room on the side.
Xiao Xinyi was taken to a small house by Xiao Yu'er, the house looked very ordinary from the outside, but after opening it, he found that the layout inside was slightly different from the houses he usually saw, but he couldn't say anything wrong.
Xiao Yu'er turned her back to Xiao Xinyi and made a movement next to the head of the bed, and after a while, a secret door was opened on the wall at the end of the bed, and she realized what was different in this room, the space in this room was much smaller than the outline outside, but through the decoration of the room, people could not see the obvious difference.
Xiao Yu'er walked to the secret door and said to Xiao Xinyi, "Sister come here."
Xiao Xinyi walked next to her as she said, Xiao Yu'er flashed into the dark room, Xiao Xinyi followed closely, and the secret door slowly closed, looking just an ordinary wall from the outside, and there was no trace of flaw.
The dark room is pitch black, Xiao Yuer took out the fire fold to light the candlestick, the design of this candlestick is also very special, the metal bracket is surrounded by a circle, there are about 30 oil lamps on it, I don't know what the lamp oil is used in, it is not as dim as the usual use, the whole dark room is illuminated as bright as day, Xiao Yuer pulled a rope on the oil lamp bracket, and the bracket slowly rose to the roof.
The space of the dark room is very small, a few cabinets take up half of the space, there is a floor-to-ceiling mirror next to it, there is a soft bed directly under the oil lamp, two soft stools, and the table next to the soft bed is full of bottles and cans, Xiao Yu'er motioned Xiao Xinyi to lie on the soft bed.
Xiao Xinyi looked at Xiao Yu'er and said, "Little girl, you have added ecstasy to this oil lamp, but this ordinary psyche / medicine will not work on me."
Xiao Yu'er was not surprised when she heard this, she looked at Xiao Xinyi with a flattering expression and said, "Sister, the master has explained, saying that you are not afraid of the drug, let me not use it, the drug/drug you smelled was left over from the last time, and it will be gone soon."
Xiao Xinyi looked at the clever little girl in front of him, and asked in a better mood, "What are we going to do now?"
"Sister, have you ever heard of disguise?" Xiao Yu'er tilted her head and looked at Xiao Xinyi curiously.
"Of course I've heard of it."
"Then we are going to change our face now and turn my sister into another person."
"Isn't it usually a human skin mask that is usually used for disguise?" Xiao Xinyi looked at the bottles and cans on the table and asked suspiciously.
"The human skin mask is convenient, but it is only disguised and does not change the bones, and there are masters who are proficient in this way can see through it at a glance, and our master's method of disguise, unless it is a disciple of this sect, outsiders will definitely not see the flaw." Xiao Yu'er replied.
"Okay." After Xiao Xinyi finished speaking, he sat on the soft bed and took out a handkerchief from his sleeve to cover his eyes.
Xiao Yu'er saw her movements and said, "Master has explained, sister doesn't have to be like this."
"This disguise technique is a method that is not passed on, I am not a disciple of your sect, so naturally I dare not snoop on."
Seeing her like this, Xiao Yu'er didn't say much, walked to the table and opened some porcelain bottles to mix the ointment, and when the ointment was mixed, she pulled a soft stool and sat in front of Xiao Xinyi and smeared it on her face, and then untied the handkerchief on her eyes after the face was smeared, Xiao Xinyi still closed her eyes, Xiao Yu'er smeared all the ointment on her face and took out a jade box from the cabinet, the small box emitted a faint luster, the jade box is the best, and the things contained in it are naturally extremely precious, Xiao Yuer carefully opened the box, Take out a thin piece of paper from it, this paper skin is very magical, not only the shape is similar to the shape of a human face, the texture is also as smooth and delicate as a human skin, Xiao Yu'er slowly put the paper skin on Xiao Xinyi's face, and after the paper skin and the ointment are completely fused, the excess part of the paper skin is removed, and she painted her eyebrows. When all this was done, he opened another cabinet, which hung all kinds of clothes, from rich silk to tattered coarse linen clothes, and at the bottom of the cabinet were some flesh-colored waist and breasts.
Xiao Yu'er picked out a waist wrap that looked a little heavy, walked up to Xiao Xinyi and said, "Sister, now I'm going to change your clothes for you."
Xiao Xinyi nodded and hummed. Xiao Yu'er took off her dress, leaving only the inner middle garment, and then tied the wrap waist around her waist, so that the slender waist that was originally held by Ying Ying suddenly became a lot rounder, Xiao Yu'er nodded with satisfaction, and took out a cyan long skirt and a wide-sleeved shirt of the same color from the wardrobe to help her put it on, after doing all this, Xiao Yuer circled around Xiao Xinyi, and the originally slim girl became a beautiful young woman with a slight fortune but still charm.
Xiao Yu'er took a closer look and saw that there were no flaws, and said to Xiao Xinyi: "Sister, you can open your eyes." Then he opened another cabinet and took out a pair of cyan embroidered shoes for her to change into.
Xiao Xinyi looked at herself in the mirror with some disbelief, although she had heard of the disguise technique, but she had never seen it with her own eyes, if she didn't know that she was disguised today, I am afraid that she standing next to the mirror would not dare to believe that the one in the mirror was her own shadow.
Xiao Yu'er pulled her to sit down next to the soft stool when she was stunned, neatly removed her hair bun, combed her in a bun, and added a few gold ornaments. Poured out a cup of tea from the silver teapot on the table and handed it to her, Xiao Xinyi picked it up and looked at it and drank it all, the tea only felt a faint tingling pain in the throat, but it was no longer felt for a moment.
Xiao Xinyi handed the teacup back to Xiao Yu'er with both hands and said, "Little girl, is it okay now?" As soon as the words came out, she was stunned, the voice coming out of her mouth was mature and elegant, where was the usual voice, this time, from the appearance and voice of the voice and temperament to another person.
Xiao Yu'er sorted out the clothes that Xiao Xinyi had changed, wrapped them in a bag, and put them in the cabinet and said, "Okay, sister, your things will be returned to you in the future, let's go out now."
Xiao Xinyi looked at the burden and said, "I don't have anything else to bring, but I have to bring that belt."
Xiao Yu'er untied her baggage, found the white belt, and asked, "Is this it?"
Xiao Xinyi took the belt and nodded and said, "I'm tired."
Xiao Yu'er opened the secret door with a relaxed face, and the two returned to the courtyard together, and saw Boss Ren talking to a knife man, who was about the same age as Boss Ren, dressed in gray linen clothes, wearing a gray hat, with a dark face and a long scar from the corner of his eye to his sideburns. When the two stopped talking when they saw Xiao Xinyi and Xiao Yu'er coming, Boss Ren saluted Xiao Xinyi and said, "Mrs. Mu, this is a distant relative of the contemptible Huatang, and he can escort Mrs. on the road this way."
"Hua Tang has seen Mrs. Mu."
Xiao Xinyi looked at Hua Tang, who bowed his head and saluted, and asked, "What about Zhuge Gongzi?"
"Here." Huatang's lips moved slightly, and Zhuge Qinghong actually changed his face.
Zhuge Qinghong saw her surprised look and said, "Let's go, let's go to Jiangcheng now."
Xiao Xinyi nodded and said, "Okay."
Boss Ren led the way from the front, the two went out from the back door, the back door is a long alley, almost no one usually comes here, there is a carriage parked at the door, Zhuge Qinghong took down the footstool and helped Xiao Xinyi into the carriage, and said to Boss Ren and Xiao Yuer: "Thank you for your help today, and I will come to thank you in the future."
Xiao Yu'er said unhappily: "Master is leaving just now, how long will I have to wait to come and see me this time."
Zhuge Qinghong smiled and said: "I will be back soon this time, you have to listen to your father's words carefully, bring your favorite mung bean cake when you come next time, and help the master take care of the ink crow."
Xiao Yu'er nodded reluctantly: "Then you have to count what you say."
Zhuge Qinghong touched her head, jumped into the carriage and hugged his fist at Boss Ren and said, "Brother Ren, take care, farewell."
After saying that, he pulled the reins from the carriage, and the two horses received the order and galloped in the alley.
