Chapter 140, Who Will Recognize Me?
"Now I only have one, but you have two, if the two of you work together to kill me now, you can run away without being taken away by me, and continue to ......"
Shen Mu just stood on the street with his hands behind his back, looking at these two tricksters with great interest.
Although Jin Yiwei should have checked the bottom of these two people in advance, he made this plan in a hurry, and his time was limited, so he didn't have time to look at the case files of these two people.
In his previous life, when he employed people, he paid great attention to the character of the people he used.
In this life, it is still the same.
He deliberately said this because he wanted to test the hearts of these two people again.
If these two people are evil at this moment, in order to survive, they really choose to kill him.
Then I'm sorry, he won't help them on the road to the clouds, and he will even let them die now.
The story of the farmer and the snake has never been his favorite version of Shen Mu.
And these two tricksters were a little confused at the same time.
Although they have been in the rivers and lakes for many years, they are not stupid and stupid, no matter what this brocade guard wants to do when he takes them out of the cell.
But the other party is not a fool, and if one person takes the two of them away, doesn't he think about his own safety?
It seemed as if there were only three of them on the street now, and who knew if they acted rashly in the next moment, would an official errand immediately pour out of the shadows and chop them into pulp?
Even if they don't do anything to the person in front of them, and now they choose to run away, can they escape?
If you are caught, you may be re-thrown into a dark prison.
Thinking of this, the old man took the lead and knelt down on the street and said, "This benefactor, you have brought my master and apprentice out of the dark prison that does not see the light of day, what a great grace this is.
Although the little old man doesn't know why you want to save my master and apprentice, but you are still our savior, although the little old man and apprentice are walking the rivers and lakes to perform arts, and they can't recognize a few words, but they also know the truth of knowing the kindness of retribution, how can you be in order to survive at this time, grace will take revenge, and it is not good for you? ”
"But what if it is not good for you if I take you away? Maybe you've just left the tiger's den and entered the wolf's den? Shen Mu deliberately changed his tone, and in the middle of the night, the voice he made sounded a little terrible.
"If that's the case, it's also the life of the little old man's master and apprentice." The older man's voice was sad.
"Is this true?" Hearing this, Shen Mu took a step forward, squatted down, brushed away the messy hair in front of the old man's trick with his hand, and stared at the other party's eyes by the faint light of the lantern on the street.
"What the little old man said was true."
"Okay, then does your apprentice think the same way?" Shen Mu got up and looked at the young trickster who was still standing on the side and was a little dazed.
The apprentice looked even more honest, and when he heard this, he nodded hurriedly.
But after thinking about it, he also knelt down on the ground and said: "It's the truth, it's the truth." ”
"Very good, get up, what are the names of your master and apprentice?"
"Liu Sanshou, Liu Xiaobao!"
The master and apprentice spoke at the same time, but their doubts were even greater, why did this man save them from prison because he didn't even know their names?
"Okay, Liu Sandao, Liu Xiaobao, since you don't want to let me die, then continue to follow me!"
Shen Mu wasn't sure if the master and apprentice were really that honest in their hearts, but it didn't matter, in the test just now, it was at least certain that this master should be a smart person, smart people are generally timid, and they know what to do and what not to do, which is enough.
Hearing this, the master and apprentice glanced at each other, and then walked forward behind Shen Mu again.
They didn't know where Shen Mu was going to take them? You can only take steps mechanically.
After walking a distance of about 200 steps, there is a public bathhouse on the side of the street.
Shen Mu looked back at the sloppy appearance of these two people, and felt that it was better to let these two people wash them first, and then talk about it, now such an honor is really a bit spicy.
So he took the lead in the bathhouse, threw a few taels of silver into the hands of the guy who opened the bathhouse, and said, "Let these two people wash off their bad luck, and by the way, bring two more clothes suitable for the two of them." ”
"Yes...... Be...... The little one understands. The guy first looked at the dirty prison clothes of the two people who were playing tricks, and then looked at the brocade clothes on Shen Mu's body, and replied cautiously.
Immediately nodded and led the two to the innermost pool.
Shen Mu saw that the two of them went in to take a bath, so he sat on the pier at the door and waited.
In the process of waiting, I went through the search plan again in my mind to see if there were other loopholes in this plan, and I didn't think about it.
As he pondered, some people who had finished taking a bath came out of it one after another.
After these people glanced at the brocade clothes on Shen Mu's body, they didn't dare to look at it more, and walked out of Shen Mu's side tremblingly and carefully, and then they were greatly relieved.
At this moment, when a big man walked out of the pool in the west, as soon as he raised his eyes, he saw Shen Mu waiting at the door wearing a brocade robe, and his expression immediately froze, brushed the ground, and got into the pool again.
Shen Mu only glanced at it, and knew that this big man was very likely to have committed something, so he was so afraid of Jinyiwei.
However, looking at this person's abrupt behavior, it is obviously not the kind of criminal who is very scheming, and it is estimated that it will not be a big deal!
He is not a servant who maintains law and order in Nanjing City now, and finding Zhu Houzhao's bear child is the first priority, and now he has no heart to take care of such idle matters.
Just let this big man get away with it for a few more days.
It's just that he didn't expect that he would soon see this big man again, and they were quite fateful.
The waiting time at the bathhouse is a bit long.
Also, the master and apprentice have been locked up in prison for more than two years, and they must be able to grow crops after rubbing the dirt off their bodies.
It's human nature to want to wash up.
After about half an hour, two people came out of the bathhouse.
The two men walked up to him and said, "My lord! ”
He looked up and saw that the two tricks had been washed out.
Although the hair and beard of these two people are still very long and a little messy, they are quite pleasing to the eye when they look at their eyebrows, but they are malnourished in prison, and their faces are abnormal and glowing with blue and white.
He looked at the two of them carefully, nodded and got up and said, "Let's go!" ”
After leaving the door, he continued to walk forward.
The master and apprentice could only continue to follow, but at this time, the hearts of the master and apprentice were half relaxed, if this Lord Jinyi really wanted their lives, he couldn't let them be clean ghosts!
If you let them wash it, I'm afraid it won't kill them right away.
They hadn't bathed in prison for so long, and just now they had been soaking in clean and warm water, and they wanted to soak like this for the rest of their lives, never to get up.
But he also knew that this kind of thinking was impossible, so he didn't want to delay, which angered the benefactor, so he reluctantly got out of the pool.
The three of them walked forward about a hundred steps one after the other, and Shen Mu stood on a square in the center of Nanjing City.
I looked around at this square, and the surrounding line of sight was very wide, and it was a suitable place to set up a platform and play magic tricks.
Well, let's set up a station in this place when we go back.
However, if you want to set up a stage in this place to play a trick, you may have to say hello to Ye Qianhu to the Imperial History of the City Patrol, as well as the Ying Tianzhi Mansion, and the officials in charge of the entire security management of Nanjing City, so that it can be convenient.
Liu Sandao's master and apprentice didn't understand what this benefactor had done when he brought them to this place, but they could only continue to stand.
Now it was about to enter the sub-hour, and there was no one in the black hole in such a large square in front of them, but the autumn wind blew their somewhat thin robes, making them feel that they had not felt the smell of the wind for a long time.
"Let's go!" After putting the geographical situation around the square in his mind, Shen Mu continued to move forward.
After leaving the square, the three of them entered the street to the north.
The north side of the square is the management area of the Thousand Households of Jinyi Weibei City.
After walking a few steps forward, Shen Mu stopped again and said, "You wait for me for a moment." ”
Then he walked to the shadows, and quickly changed the brocade robe and robes on his body, and changed into a more high-end merchant's costume that he had bought in the bathhouse.
After placing the brocade guard's robe on his body, he quickly made a simple transfiguration on his face again before he walked out.
"Let's go!"
"Benefactor, you ......"
If it weren't for the same voice, the master and apprentice who played this trick almost didn't recognize it, and immediately felt a little more awe in Shen Mu's heart.
Shen Mu had no obligation to answer the question of why he did this.
According to the cautious and cautious nature he had raised in his previous life, he still decided to erase the news of the connection between the master and apprentice of the trickster and the Jinyi Wei at this time.
After walking for a distance and stopping in front of a small inn, Shen Mu stopped and turned around and said, "In the next few days, you will live in this inn." ”
"My lord, the little old man and apprentice don't have any money on them now, and they can't afford to live in such an inn." The older master glanced up at the sign on the door of the inn and said in embarrassment.
"Enter!" Shen Mu was too lazy to talk nonsense.
"This master, are you staying in a hotel or eating?" The guy saw that a guest came to the door, and hurriedly came out from behind the counter to greet him.
"Do you have a secluded courtyard behind this inn?"
"Yes, yes, but it costs ten taels of silver a day." Dude is attentive and authentic.
"Take us in, and besides, prepare a table of food to be delivered!"
As Shen Mu spoke, he took out a silver ticket from his arms and handed it to the other party.
The guy took it and looked at it, but it was a hundred taels of silver ticket, and his face was immediately full of smiles.
Immediately said: "A few distinguished guests, please!" ”
This one hundred taels of silver tickets was found by Shen Mu in the table bucket of his new home today.
It was a thousand taels in total, and it was put together with the deed of the house at that time.
It should be the settling-in allowance prepared for him by Liang Baihu or Ye Qianhu.
A thousand taels is not too much, and less is not too much.
It is said that ordinary people in the Ming Dynasty spend only a dozen taels a year.
This thousand taels is enough for ordinary people to live for decades.
But that's not the point, the point is that he has to do things now, and there is always some cost.
Today, he forgot to include economic expenses in the search plan he listed, but for people like Ye Qianhu, as long as his method works, if he really fishes out Zhu Houzhao's bear child, there should still be other rewards.
Although the master and apprentice who played the trick still looked confused, the matter had come to this point, so he could only obediently follow Shen Mu to the back courtyard.
The yard behind this is really good, it's a small courtyard, but the environment is pretty good in all aspects.
After the man withdrew, he looked at the description of the master and apprentice and said, "You sit down first." ”
He walked over to the table, unwrapped his baggage, and took out the razor he had prepared in advance.
Then he approached the position where Liu Sandao was sitting step by step.
"Benefactor, spare your life!" Liu Sandao saw Shen Mu holding a razor in his hand, and under the candlelight, the blade was shining, and he walked towards him step by step, and his heart was chilling at the moment, and he fell to his knees again, and was ready to kowtow and beg for mercy.
When Shen Mu heard this, he couldn't help but roll his eyes and said, "Stop, if you hit your forehead, I will kick your master and apprentice back to the prison immediately." Don't worry, I'm just seeing that your hair and beard haven't been taken care of for so long, so I'm just giving you a face-repair. ”
"Really?"
"It's better than pearls, you have to sit down, if you move and your face is scarred, don't blame me."
This dry face of the master and apprentice, it seems that they can't gain weight for the time being.
That can only be thought of in the style of the hair and mustache.
Just like the styling of those stars in later generations, as soon as they appear, they will have an eye-catching effect.
He wants to make the master and apprentice into the entertainment stars of the Ming Dynasty.
This Liu Sandao met Shen Mu's sincere eyes, and finally chose to believe it and sat down again.
Let Shen Mu do something on his head.
That apprentice, Liu Xiaobao, was still nervously paying attention to Shen Mu's movements at first, and when he got to the back, he began to learn Shen Mu's techniques seriously.
Shen Mu's makeup and disguise technique was in his previous life, but he turned himself into a beautiful woman with a vivid color, and after brushing the ground, he instantly changed Liu Sandao's temperament, and it seemed that the whole person had the style of a master.
Liu Sandao was also a little nervous at first, but in the end, seeing that his apprentice's expression relaxed, he was not so nervous.
"There's a bronze mirror over there, you go over and take a look, Xiaobao, it's your turn." After the repair was completed, Shen Mu signaled.
"Benefactor, will you also get me a one like my master?"
"Huh!" Shen Mu directly patted the kid's head with a razor and motioned for the other party to sit down.
After he got Liu Xiaobao's hairstyle right, he saw that Liu Sandao was still in a daze at the bronze mirror.
Shen Mu believes that whether it is in the past life or now, most people in the world are face control, if the two tricksters are dressed up with a very textured texture, it will be more eye-catching.
"Master, why do I think I'm like someone's noble son?" Liu Xiaobao also looked at the bronze mirror.
"No, Xiaobao, you can't look like this, you will be recognized." When Liu Sandao heard this, his face changed, as if he remembered something, and his tone was a little eager.
"Master, who do you think will recognize me?" When Liu Xiaobao heard this, he stopped looking in the mirror and asked curiously.
