Chapter 16: The Gray and White Plaster Mask
"Xiao, Xiao Gongzi, what are you doing here?" A turtle man asked in confusion as he bent down with difficulty. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
", where is all this nonsense!" Xiao Zixuan waved his hand impatiently and continued to move forward.
"Xiao Gongzi, did you have something falling into the door?" Turtle Gong still doesn't give up, there are only a handful of opportunities to tie up with Xiao Taisui, and he must not give up easily: "Why don't you go in and ask?" ā
"Fuck off!" Xiao Zixuan kicked the turtle from the third floor to the second floor, grandma's, everything......
He lay on the ground, his ears were firmly attached to the wooden board, and he faintly heard a few voices: "Lord Cao, Wu Yuman is one of the four Oiran of the Moon, I didn't expect to be subdued by you, my lord is really Cai Yuan Dezhao!" ā
"Hahaha, I'm an old bone, and now I can only show off my literary talents, in order to win the hearts of beautiful women, and I'm no longer a suave young man!"
"Master Cao laughed, even if you don't care about your poetry and songs, you are also a first-class magnificent man, and it is normal for a witch girl to fall in love at first sight."
"Alas, Yuman, I really don't know how much your ransom is worth, the ups and downs of the sea over the years, just relying on the court's fortune, I don't know if I can rescue you from this moon mill."
"Lord Cao, Lord Cao, your kindness is appreciated by the slave family, but the rules of the Moon Tilting Workshop are too strict, and the slave family is not worth Lord Cao's right to spend a lot of money as a ransom price, if Lord Cao likes it, you can call the slave family to come to play the piano and dance at any time, and the slave family will never refuse!"
"Hahaha, I like you to be well-behaved and supple like you......"
"Lord Cao, the slave family is unwell today, and I hope Lord Cao will ......"
"You! It's your honor that Lord Cao is willing to touch you, how fucking dare you refuse?! ā
"Youting, how do you speak! It's okay, Yuman, you don't have to be shy, everyone here is your own person, and it's not a shame to mention that we fell in love at first sight......"
"Cao, Lord Cao, the slave family is sick, and my mind still feels groggy, and I hope you ......"
"Damn, I, Zhao Weimin, have lived for so many years, and I haven't seen you such a presumptuous, Lao Tzu has to make you taste some hardship today."
"Smack!"
"Damn, you still dare to stare at me, Lao Tzu will beat you to death!"
"Smack!"
Xiao Zixuan's expression changed suddenly, his fists clenched, that old man really had bad intentions towards Wu Yuman!
He gritted his teeth, tried to kick in the door several times, shook his head bitterly and left, if he went in, everything he had been thinking about these days would be in vain.
At this moment, an arrogant laughter suddenly came from inside the door, and you don't need to put your head on the floor to hear it clearly: "Hahaha, Lao Tzu said that you won't be such a loyal person, otherwise how would you commit to Xiao Zixuan's beast?" ā
"Xiao Zixuan, Xiao Zixuan, what else do you say to buy Wu Yuman for a month with a thousand taels of silver, and in the end, you can't still cheapen our brothers? A few days later, if you learn that this year's North Malaysia South Diversion does not have the Liu family's share, I see how miserable you cry, hahaha! ā
"Weimin, this is not a place to talk after all, there is a mixture of fish and dragons, and our plan will die if it is revealed......"
"Hahaha, Lao Kang, I have inquired clearly, Xiao Zixuan personally kidnapped Wu Yuman's mother three years ago, and her life and death are still unknown."
"Witch girl, knowing this, are you still willing to serve your brother Xiao? Yes? Hahaha! ā
"Zhao Weimin, you brute, I'll fight with you!"
"Smack!"
"Poof!"
"Wu Yuman, you, I'll tell you! Lao Tzu let you go today, keep your cheap ass and let Xiao Zixuan go on for a few days, after you go back, be honest, if you dare to leak the slightest rumor with Xiao Zixuan, Lao Tzu will sell you to the cheapest kiln in Yongzhou City, and call you a group of untouchables****! ā
"Also, every two days, I will come to the Moon Tilt to find you, and when the time comes, you will do whatever I tell you."
"Phew! Why should I listen to you! ā
"Hehe, look at what this is? Well? Look at that! ā
"Hahaha, don't say anything! Let me tell you, if you are obedient, maybe I will be kind and tell you the whereabouts of your mother, and I can also send Xiao Zixuan to the guillotine by the way, if you poke Lao Tzu's backbone behind your back, Lao Tzu will immediately call your mother to break your bones and scatter ashes! ā
ā¦ā¦
The door opened, and with a "drop" sound, a crystal tear fell from the wooden board. Then a weak woman walked out, the tears in the corners of her eyes were still dry, and her delicate and beautiful face was full of sadness.
Suddenly, as if she suddenly heard something, she looked up and saw that it was probably a turtle male passing by......
She shook her head in confusion, frowned, and finally gritted her teeth and changed into a bright demeanor, and walked towards her room.
āāāā
"Childe, why did you come back with a large bag of medicinal herbs?" The little girl Wangzai pursed her red lips in confusion.
Xiao Zixuan laughed lightly and put the medicinal herbs on the table: "What, do you want to taste it?" If you want to taste it, I'll fry it for you, so that you can drink it refreshingly! ā
Wang Zihua's face was pale, and he playfully stuck out his little tongue and said: "Childe, the slave family is not sick, why do you have to take medicine, it's too bitter......"
Wang Zai is really the girl who can act, if she is called to be born to modern times, why can't she be a student of Beiying Central Opera?
At this time, she pursed her red lips aggrievedly, the black and bright green silk was soft and glutinous on her forehead, and her round little face that could pinch out the water was sweeter than honey, so that people could forget the worries in life at a glance.
Xiao Zixuan couldn't help laughing, shook his head helplessly, and the haze that had just accumulated in his heart dissipated a little: "Tell you, this son is going to change a magic trick for you, you will have to watch it for a while!" ā
"What is magic?"
"Oh, give you a trick."
"Cut." Wang Tsai pursed his lips disdainfully, his pretty face was as white as snow, his lips were not painted and vermilion, his cheeks were not stained red, and the whole person was eager to bite into it and taste how sweet the filling was.
"Childe, why are you getting more and more depraved, you still know how to read a few days ago, why have you even started to play tricks these days...... You won't take Wang Tsai to the streets in the future, will you?! ā
Wang Tsai seemed to suddenly think of something terrible, and his face was full of fear: "Don't go to the street to perform, don't break big stones on your chest!" Woowoo woo ......"
Xiao Zixuan's dark eyes looked at Wang Zai's chest and murmured, "If I can see your chest, who will have the time to see the broken boulder......"
"Childe, what did you say?" Wang Tsai asked suspiciously.
"It's okay, it's okay, light a fire for me."
"What?" Wang Zai was dumbfounded: "Childe, although the weather is still relatively cold, there should be no need for a stove!" ā
Xiao Zixuan slapped lightly on the cover of Wangzi Di Tianling, and scolded: "If you are told to make a fire, you will go and make a fire, why is there so much nonsense?" ā
Wang Zai opened her mouth angrily, revealing a row of neat teeth, and she bit it hard, almost biting Xiao Zixuan's arm: "Son, you are not allowed to hit my head!" ā
After a moment, Wang Tsai stared blankly at the stove.
I saw a small iron pot above the stove, and a layer of powdered gypsum was laid on it.
"Gong, Gongzi ......" Wang Zai hesitated for a long time, and finally couldn't help but remind timidly: "Childe, although the herbs are indeed fried, but, but it is not such a decoction method, it is to be dissolved in water, and slowly tormented with alternating simmering and martial fire......
Wang Tsai was a little sad in his heart, Gongzi didn't even know this basic common sense, he really didn't know how to please his wife in the future, and even he began to dislike his stupidity......
Xiao Zixuan was busy stirring the plaster with a small spatula, and he didn't have time to take care of Wang Zai, so he could only let his status as the master plummet in Wang Zai's mind.
Raw gypsum, that is, natural gypsum dihydrate (CaSO4ć»2H2O), pungent, sweet, slightly cold. Return to the lungs and stomach meridians. Efficacy: Clearing heat and relieving fire, removing annoyance and quenching thirst, and astringent muscle. However, what Xiao Zixuan needs now is not raw gypsum, but cooked gypsum formed by calcining raw gypsum above 150 degrees Celsius.
He has always had a plan, that is, to go to the steamed bun tea restaurant to inquire about the news of "himself". But if he comes to the door rashly, it will inevitably arouse the doubts of relevant people and others, although Xiao Zixuan's worries are likely to be superfluous, but he can't joke with his life after all.
He clearly knew that Xiao Zixuan had at least a dozen lives buried in his hands, and any of the deceased's relatives and friends might find Xiao Zixuan desperately at all costs.
-- Wu Yuman is a good example.
Therefore, Xiao Zixuan must plan his actions in an orderly manner, and he cannot afford any failure.
The mask was the first tool he needed.
It is obviously not appropriate to go straight to buy it. Yongzhou City is so big, and there are not many vendors selling masks, not to mention the style of masks, which must be regular masks of some standard. If someone really wants to investigate Xiao Zixuan's identity, then buying a ready-made mask is no different from writing "I am Xiao Zixuan" directly on his face.
It's also not realistic to find a blacksmith to forge a brand new mask. The situation is critical, Xiao Zixuan has no time to wait for the blacksmith to make blanks, hot forging, and quenching, and when he forges it, he may have been sent to court by Wu Yuman.
He had to create a mask that was unique in this world in a way that was convenient and didn't leave a trace.
That is the product of modern science - the plaster mask.
Using plaster and gauze bandages, add water and spread them on the face, and wait for the plaster bandages to be set, and then form a plaster mask that fits the human face.
The way the mask was prepared sounded simple, but the necessary raw material, the plaster bandage, was produced after the 19th century. Xiao Zixuan used this method to make masks, even if others found out that he had purchased a large amount of quicklime, they could not guess his true intentions.
