Ji Fengshuo went for a full hour! During this time, Yue Yinchen helped Granny Meng take care of the trivial things in the coffin shop together. At this moment, it should be three poles in the sun, but this 'Xudu City' is somehow still shrouded in a dark cloud, and the dim and rotten atmosphere revealed around it makes the depressed people breathless!

Cut out the last stack of coins in your hand and put them in the square on the counter where the paper money is stored. The figure of Ji Fengshuo is finally visible from the corner lane!

Looking at the empty street, with only three or two pedestrians, Xi Fengshuo's footsteps seemed quite hurried. Yue Yinchen had a faint sense of foreboding in his heart, and quickly got up to greet him and said, "How is it?"

The look on Ji Fengshuo's face was a little anxious, and he seemed to be a little afraid! He whispered back to Yue Yinchen: "Uncle Shi, the disciple and grandson asked the residents of the three streets door to door. Guess what? After the third watch last night, except for the coffin shop where we lived, and the three families living in the neighborhood, the other shops and main houses in this 'Xudu City' all heard that strange knock on the door!"

Yue Yinchen frowned and said, "In other words, they deliberately avoided where we were?"

Ji Fengshuo nodded heavily and said, "Exactly, Uncle Ancestor, right now... What should we do?"

Yue Yinchen was also puzzled for a while, and after a moment of silence, he said: "When you visited the 'Xudu City' just now, have you seen any other inns in this city?"

Ji Fengshuo thought about it for a while, and replied respectfully to Yue Yinchen: "After going out to the left three intersections, I passed through a very deserted alley, and at the westernmost end of that alley, there was an extremely simple inn!"

Yue Yinchen nodded slightly and said, "In this way, I will write a note, and you go to the street to buy some things and come back! When it is dusk, the two of us will change to the inn to live." ”

Ji Fengshuo asked with some surprise: "Uncle Shi, isn't it just a change of inn? Why do you still need to purchase things? What are you missing, do you have a disciple to see if there is anything in the ring?"

"I need some rouge, gouache, flour, and eggs! Do you carry these things with you?"

"This... Hearing a hint of dissatisfaction in Yue Yinchen's tone, Ji Fengshuo hurriedly changed his words: "Uncle Shi, this flour and egg apprentice can still understand, it's nothing more than that you want to improve your food." But what is the use of rouge gouache? No matter which woman you want to give it to, you don't have to buy it in this 'capital city', right?"

Yue Yinchen glared at him fiercely and said, "Go, go, go! Ask Grandma Meng if she has a pen and paper at home, bring it to me! What to improve the food? I want these things, but they are for disguise." Although my craftsmanship is not as good as that of your aunt, I have also asked her for advice in my spare time

With some skills, it would have been easy to adjust our appearances slightly! Since the strange thing that knocked on the door in the middle of the night had discovered our place. So if you want to transfer the inn quietly, wouldn't it be better to hide it from being discovered?"

Seeing that Yue Yinchen originally meant this, Ji Fengshuo said with a stunned face: "Eh! I didn't expect that Uncle Shi would still understand such a doorway, then you wait a moment, and the apprentice will go to Grandma Meng to borrow paper and pencils." ”

Seeing that Ji Fengshuo raised her feet and walked into the back hall of the coffin shop, Yue Yinchen recalled the sweet time when she chatted with Hua Baimei, and went through the disguise materials she said in her mind.

After a while, seeing that Ji Fengshuo ran out again, holding a set of dirty, worn, old, and pen, ink, paper, and inkstone in his hand, he really couldn't get his hands on it. Then he said to him: "Hurry up and ink, I said you write!"

Since Yue Yinchen had ordered, Ji Fengshuo naturally couldn't open his mouth to refute, so he had to answer, and then poured some water into the inkstone that had already dried up, and grinded the ink hard!

After a cup of tea, the dry and hard graphite finally dissolved. Ji Fengshuo said to Yue Yinchen, who was secretly distracted: "Uncle Shi, everything is ready, what materials do you need, tell the apprentice grandson!"

Yue Yinchen slowly spoke, and reported out the materials needed for the disguise one by one. Ji Fengshuo recorded carefully, and finally looked at the various materials written on a piece of paper, frowned and said: "Senior Uncle Ancestor, isn't it just easy to look like! As for needing so many things? I see that these things you want are enough to make twenty people easy to look at." ”

When Yue Yinchen heard this, he touched the tip of his nose in embarrassment and said: "Where do you kid talk so much nonsense? Although Uncle Shi has discussed the essence of the disguise technique with your Uncle and Ancestor, it is only on paper, and he has never practiced it himself! Prepare a little more materials, in case it doesn't work out once, do you still want to go on a second trip to purchase?"

Hearing Yue Yinchen say this, Ji Fengshuo smiled, shook his head again and again, and said: "I don't want to, I don't want to!

After saying this, Feng Shuo trotted towards the street again. Yue Yinchen secretly smiled bitterly, and then turned around and entered the back hall of the coffin shop.

At this time, Granny Meng was sorting out in the back hall for a long time and couldn't sell them, and there were already some damp and moldy incense candle ingots and the like. Seeing Yueyinchen suddenly walked in, he immediately smiled at him and said, "Young man, it's almost noon, you must be hungry, right? Wait a minute! When the old man finishes packing up these things, he will immediately go and prepare lunch for you." ”

Seeing that Granny Meng was as kind and enthusiastic as ever, Yue Yinchen nodded slightly and said, "Thank you Grandma Meng!

I'm going to tell you later. My companion and I will finish the affairs in the 'Xudu City' today, and if nothing else, we will leave this place and go elsewhere before the sun goes down!

Looking at Yueyinchen, he took out a full amount of silver ingots from his arms and handed it to his eyes. Granny Meng waved her hand again and again, "Young man, this is unacceptable! You have rested all night in my shabby place, and the food has not been well received. Where did you ask for such a silver ingot to pay the bill? Do you have any scattered silver around you, just give a few taels to the old man. ”

Seeing that Granny Meng refused in every way, Yue Yinchen forced the silver ingot into her hand and said: "Grandma Meng! Seeing each other is fate, although we have only lived for a short day, we have felt the warmth of our long-lost home here!

Seeing that Yue Yinchen was honest and honest, there was no pretentiousness! Granny Meng repeatedly refused, but she was at a stalemate, so she had to put the silver into her arms, and said with tears in her eyes: "Young man, you are really good people! Even my children have never given me so much silver." By the way, don't you have to leave until the evening? You still have to eat lunch this morning! The old man will go to the street to buy you wine and meat, and make a few special side dishes, so I will see you off, and I wish you a smooth journey!"

knew that if she had to dissuade her, it would make this Granny Meng really unhappy in her heart. Yue Yinchen also followed her meaning and said: "That's fine, then Grandma Meng will have to worry about it!"

Granny Meng's dry old face covered with pleats smiled like a flower, and she replied to Yue Yinchen again and again: "Don't bother, don't bother! Young man, then you can wait for me! The old man will go to the market to buy ingredients, and he will definitely satisfy you!"

Yue Yinchen nodded with a faint smile, watching Granny Meng turn around and leave, and she also came to the top of the coffin shop again to help her take care of the business in the shop.

Mo Yo waited bored for more than half an hour, but the first to come back was Ji Fengshuo who was carrying a big burden.

Seeing that Yue Yinchen was flipping through a roll of ancient brocade silk in the shop, Xi Fengshuo put his burden on the low table, wiped a handful of fine sweat on his sideburns and said, "Uncle Shi, I bought everything you wanted, when will we start?"

Yue Yinchen put away the brocade silk and threw it to him casually: "Don't worry! Grandma Meng saw that I gave her a lot of silver to pay for these two days, and she was grateful, so she had to invite us two to have a good meal to practice. In my opinion, it's better to wait for her to come back and clean up, and after we have eaten, it's not too late to prepare for the disguise! By the way, the spiritual trick given to you is very rare, so you can practice it when you have nothing to do!"
