After coming to Luoyang for two years, Chen Yi has seen many historical celebrities, and he also has a relationship with Yang Guang, the emperor of the current dynasty, but when he heard the thunderous name of "Li Shimin" reported by the young man in front of him, he still couldn't help but lose his mind slightly.

Fortunately, he already had a faint premonition in his heart when he saw the waist card, so he regained consciousness in an instant, and said with a smile: "Disrespectful, it turned out to be the second son and the third lady of the Li family, and the golden cicada is polite." ”

Li Shimin and Li Xiuning returned the salute together.

After seeing the ceremony, Chen Yi asked with a smile: "I just heard from the guy in our store that the second son wants to buy a half-body carved makeup mirror in our store?"

"Exactly," Li Shimin hadn't opened his mouth yet, Li Xiuning rushed to the side and said, "My second brother bought this mirror to give it to his fiancée as a birthday gift." But the guy said that the glass mirrors in your store must be booked one month in advance to pick up. If we wait a month, my future sister-in-law's birthday will be over. Therefore, I also asked Jin Gongzi to try to be thoughtful, and my brother and sister are very grateful. ”

"I see. Chen Yi groaned slightly, and said with a smile, "Since it is a birthday gift, there is naturally no reason to give it back after it expires, so this matter will be wrapped up in me." Please go to the VIP room on the second floor for a while, and let me think about it. ”

Li Shimin and Li Xiuning, the brothers and sisters, were overjoyed, and after thanking them, they went to the second floor with a guy recruited by Chen Yi. After the two of them were seated in an elegantly furnished room, they were served exquisite refreshments.

Li Xiuning took a sip of the tea in the cup, and smiled at Li Shimin: "No wonder the business of 'Ruyi Fang' can be prosperous, just from the meticulous and thoughtful reception of guests, it can be seen that the golden cicada's mind has different customs." ”

Li Shimin thought so deeply and nodded in agreement.

After a while, Chen Yi came to this room, followed by four guys, each of whom carried a flat wooden box.

The four men carefully lowered the wooden box they were carrying to the ground. Two of the men opened the box they had carried, first took out a heavy rosewood base carved with delicate patterns and placed it, then lifted out a rectangular mirror framed by carved rosewood, about six feet high and about three feet wide, and inserted the tenon of the bottom frame into the tenon of the base.

Li Xiuning stood in front of the placed mirror first, and let out a surprise call. But in the mirror before meeting, the image of his whole body was clearly visible, not a little distorted, but also delicate, which was many times better than the bronze mirror that he was used to every day.

Li Shimin asked with some hesitation: "Lord Jin, this doesn't seem to be the half-length makeup mirror I want?"

Chen Yi said with a smile: "My guy didn't tell a lie, the half-body makeup mirror is not easy to make and there are many buyers, the glass mirror in our store has been in short supply, but there is no extra stock on weekdays, and what is in front of me is a full-body makeup mirror." The bigger the glass mirror, the more difficult it is to make, and the giant glass mirror I presented to Your Majesty at the beginning is really a product of luck, and it is the only one in the world. In addition to it, the largest glass mirror that can be made in my workshop is the one in front of me, and the number is also very small. ”

Li Shimin looked at the mirror, but he felt embarrassed in his heart. The goods of "Ruyi Fang" have always been known for their high prices, and the half-length carved makeup mirror that he wanted to buy was sold for 100 gold. Now the mirror that the other party is carrying out is obviously more precious than the half-body makeup mirror, not to mention the price, the amount of 100 gold that he managed to make up is not enough in any case.

Li Xiuning, who had been looking in the mirror for a long time, obviously thought of this question, and asked a little embarrassedly: "But I don't know how much this mirror is worth?"

Chen Yi smiled: "This kind of mirror is not for sale, so it is not priced. If the two of them can see it, they can be priced at 100 gold like the half-body makeup mirror. ”

Li Shimin and Li Xiuning glanced at each other, knowing that this was the other party's intention to send a favor to the Li family, but this kind of young man was also the object that all parties needed to woo, and it was not bad to use this matter to climb some friendships, so he did not refuse pretentiously, and immediately took out the 100 gold in his pocket and presented it.

Chen Yi ordered someone to collect the money and said: "This mirror is inconvenient to transport, the second son can leave the address, and I will order someone to send it later." ”

"So it bothers the proprietor of gold. Li Shimin thanked him again, and explained that he was going to borrow it in the mansion of Zhililang Gao Shilian after coming to Luoyang, and then got up to say goodbye.

Chen Yi sent the Li siblings out of the door, and when he returned to the store, he instructed the man to pack the mirror and send it to Gaofu along with another unopened box—since he had made up his mind to give a favor, buy one get one free in order to send the favor more thoroughly.

He came to the store to check the accounts, and because he used a bookkeeping method that was far ahead of his time, he quickly settled the relevant affairs and went out to prepare for home.

At this time, Moller had already driven the carriage to the door, and two years ago, Chen Yi was forging the identity of "Golden Cicada" and bought this Kunlun slave from a slave trader. Originally, he just wanted to play the image of a merchant in the Western Regions a little more like, but after two years of getting along, he found that this Kunlun slave named "Mole" was not only loyal and reliable, but also smart, and it was very easy to learn anything, and gradually became a right-hand man who could not be separated from his side.

After Chen Yi got into the car, Moeller also sat on the wheel and drove back to the residence belonging to the "Golden Cicada".

After arriving home, Chen Yi instructed Moeller to take care of the house, and then went directly to the ashram without any meals.

Moller, accustomed to the mystery of his master, was no longer a little surprised.

After arriving at the quiet room isolated from the outside world, Chen Yi accepted the method of changing appearance evolved from the "Golden Cicada Metamorphosis", restored his original appearance, and immediately began to practice the second transformation method of the "Golden Cicada Metamorphosis".

It took him a year to complete the first transformation after his rebirth, and now two years have passed, and his second transformation is almost complete.

Chen Yi took off his coat and performed the twelve graphic movements of the second group of "Golden Cicada Metamorphosis" on a bamboo mat spread on the ground. In two years, he has been able to make the first eleven moves in a row, and only the last figure is still not enough. However, he had a vague premonition in his heart, and he always felt that he could make a breakthrough in the near future.

After the action of the eleventh figure was successfully completed, Chen Yi felt that he still had enough strength to spare, so he tried to continue to do the action of the last figure. There was no obstacle in this test, and it felt like it was going to be smooth.

After posing in an extremely awkward and strange posture, Chen Yi's mouth and nose breathed and breathed according to the trick of the "Golden Cicada Transformation Technique", and his mind gradually entered a certain mysterious and indescribable realm.

At the same time, the mysterious energy in the acupuncture points around his body gushed like a spring, and the pure aura between heaven and earth fell like rain, attacking both internally and externally, changing his body in the direction of a higher-level being......
