After the divorce, I became a mountain god
Chapter 553: Disguise
Hearing Chen Shishi's words, Yan Xiaojiu sighed, his face revealing a look of deep worry.
After a moment's silence, Yan Xiaojiu said, "Sister, both of our parents are gone, and we have no relatives in our hometown. If we risk going back this time and the spies from Juxiangfang learn of this, they will definitely not let you go!"
Chen Shishi pursed her lips and said with some reluctance: "It's been so long now, maybe... they haven't been looking for me anymore."
Tang Xiaohu shook his head and said, "How is that possible? I work in the government office and have dealt with their people before. I am familiar with their work style. If some other kabuki came out, maybe they would be too lazy to pursue it after a while. After all, it is not worthwhile to invest too much time and energy.
But after all, your identity is different from that of other ordinary people. A courtesan like you is their cash cow and their face! If you run away, they will not only lose some money, but also hurt their Juxiangfang brand and reputation.
So they will not slack off in their search for you. At least they must be determined to find you alive or dead!"
"Ah! So there's really nothing we can do!" Chen Shishi muttered in disappointment.
Yan Xiaojiu gritted her teeth and said with a guilty look on her face: "Sister, it's all my fault for not being able to do the job. If I were in a higher position and had the strength to make them jealous, they would definitely not embarrass you anymore."
Chen Shishi said hurriedly: "Little brother, please don't say that. What does this have to do with you? I won't go back. It's fine if I don't go back. Maybe after some time, when Juxiangfang selects a new courtesan, they will pay less attention to me."
Yan Xiaojiu nodded and said, "I hope so. This is the only way for now."
Xu Boan was listening to the conversation between the siblings. Seeing Chen Shishi's homesick look, he remembered that when Chen Shishi first came here, Xu Boan had promised Chen Shishi that he would let her go back if she had the chance, but she had never been able to do so. In addition, Xu Boan's care scope was limited at the moment, and he was worried about Chen Shishi going back home alone. Now that Yan Xiaojiu, a master, was accompanying them, he could take this opportunity to help the siblings.
Thinking of this, Xu Boan said: "Haha, don't worry, this is easy!" Xu Boan's tone was extremely relaxed.
Hearing Xu Bo'an's voice, the brother and sister hurriedly knelt on the ground and bowed respectfully, "I didn't know that the Mountain God had appeared. I neglected the Mountain God. Please forgive me."
Xu Boan said disapprovingly: "Okay, get up. I just happened to pass by and heard you two siblings talking about wanting to go back home to visit your relatives, right?"
Yan Xiaojiu replied: "Grandpa Mountain God is wise, it is true, but my sister is worried that it will attract the attention of Juxiangfang outside.
I have heard before that the support behind Juxiangfang is very powerful, and it can be said that the background is unfathomable. Now that my sister and I have finally met and reunited, we don’t want to cause unnecessary trouble. "
Yan Xiaojiu's speech sounds very long, but in fact it is just repetitive speech, with the same meaning repeated over and over again. He wants to reply but dares not!
The underlying meaning is more obvious. He wants to ask the mountain god for help, but is too embarrassed to ask.
After all, Chen Shishi was more familiar with Xu Bo'an, so she immediately pleaded, "I just heard from the Mountain God that this is an easy task. Please help me with this matter... "
Yan Xiaojiu, who was standing by, then said shyly, "Grandpa Mountain God has great magical powers. I hope he can help me and my sister and I so that we can return home and fulfill my sister's wish!"
Xu Bo'an said calmly: "That's easy. I can help you change your appearance so that others won't recognize you. You two siblings will support each other along the way, and you will have no worries."
Chen Shishi made a gesture of wishing everyone good luck and peace, and thanked him, "Thank you for your trouble, Grandpa Mountain God."
Xu Bo'an said, "Wait a moment, I'll be back soon."
Yan Xiaojiu and Chen Shishi responded, and Xu Boan left.
Xu Boan said he wanted to help Chen Shishi and Yan Xiaojiu change their appearance, naturally because he mastered the art of disguise.
The art of disguise that Xu Boan mastered benefited from Niu Laosan's face-changing ability. After Xu Boan learned it, he upgraded it with the power of incense, and it evolved into an even more powerful art of disguise.
If you want to perform the most sophisticated disguise technique, you still need some materials to assist.
However, since the skill of disguise comes from the bonsai world, the related materials needed are basically the materials found in the bonsai. However, Xu Boan has never performed the top-level disguise technique, so he does not have any usable materials on hand.
However, this did not pose a problem for Xu Boan. Currently, Niu Laosan's son Niu Junfeng was learning the art of taming beasts from Li Wufu. Niu Junfeng had learned his father's face-changing skills, so he must have some relevant materials.
The art of disguise originated from the art of face-changing, and it is better than the original, so the related materials are also universal.
Soon, Xu Bo'an's attention shifted to Li Wufu and his group who were practicing animal taming techniques in the forest.
Under Li Wufu's dedicated teaching, Niu Junfeng's ability to taming beasts improved by leaps and bounds, and now he has a beast that he has tamed... Hmm? What is that?
Xu Boan observed carefully for a while and found that the animal that Niu Junfeng kept for his own use was actually a woodpecker!
At this moment, the woodpecker, under the command of Niu Junfeng, was pecking at the tree, and pecked out a triangular mark.
Wow, what a talent!
After others mastered the ability to taming beasts, they either chose powerful beasts such as wolves and leopards as their partners.
Either he chose a raptor like an eagle, eagle, or falcon as his companion, or Niu Junfeng actually chose a woodpecker to accompany him.
I have to say, this kid really has some ideas.
Li Wufu nodded repeatedly, seeming to be very satisfied with the woodpecker trained by Niu Junfeng.
"Li Wufu!" Xu Bo'an called out.
Hearing the call from the Mountain God, Li Wufu's face darkened, and he quickly prostrated himself on the ground, saying respectfully, "I didn't know that the Mountain God had shown his divine power. I am disrespectful. I hope the Mountain God will forgive me."
Xu Bo'an asked directly: "Let me ask you, aren't the animals used by you beast masters all very powerful? Why did Niu Junfeng choose a woodpecker? You seem to be very satisfied with it. What's the matter?"
Li Wufu replied hurriedly, "Grandpa Mountain God, due to the current conditions, it is difficult to find wild beasts and birds of prey. Niu Junfeng originally wanted to tame an owl for his own use, but he searched everywhere but to no avail.
Later, by chance, I met this woodpecker and liked it very much, so I took it in. Although the woodpecker is not very powerful, it is flexible and has extremely powerful woodpecker skills.
Xiao Niu said that he had a poor sense of direction. If he got lost in the dense forest one day, the woodpecker would lead the way and leave marks as a guide, which would just make up for his poor sense of direction.
Besides, woodpeckers are also very patient. Although they are too small to be used in battles, they can be used as messengers, and compared with the commonly used carrier pigeons, they are not so noticeable. So it is not bad." Hearing this, Xu Boan suddenly realized that others did not know about Niu Junfeng, but Xu Boan knew it very well.
Niu Junfeng had followed Yan Shouyi before, and was then sent here to learn animal taming skills, most likely in order to be a better scout!
Niu Junfeng has the natural eyes of a scout and knows how to change his face. With the help of the woodpecker to help him in exploring intelligence, he has a full stack of buffs.
For Niu Junfeng, using an inconspicuous little bird like a woodpecker as an assistant is much more convenient than using a goshawk or a giant falcon!
If you think about it this way, it makes sense.
Xu Bo'an asked Niu Junfeng, "Niu Junfeng, I need some of the things your father used for his face-changing technique. Do you have any with you?"
Niu Junfeng was startled when he heard the sudden sound.
After a moment of panic, he came to his senses and realized that this was the voice of the Mountain God. Niu Junfeng's life was saved by the Mountain God, so naturally he would not play tricks on the Mountain God. He immediately said honestly: "Yes, Mountain God, it's here, you can take it."
As he spoke, Niu Junfeng reached into his collar and took out a small package wrapped in oil paper.
Xu Bo'an raised his hand and took the thing, then comforted Niu Junfeng, "Don't worry, what I say to you, only you and I can hear it, others don't know your affairs, if you want to keep it secret, just keep it secret."
Niu Junfeng hurriedly said: "Thank you, Grandpa Mountain God, for your understanding."
He came to learn skills, but he was actually hiding something. After all, Yan Shouyi had already rebelled, and he, Niu Junfeng, was one of the rebels.
If the people in Kaoshan Village knew about this, it would cause panic, so Niu Junfeng tried his best to conceal his background and abilities. Outsiders only knew that he was Niu Shier's relative.
After getting these materials, Xu Boan turned his attention to Chen Shishi's room again.
Chen Shishi and Yan Xiaojiu were waiting anxiously. Xu Boan said, "Chen Shishi, raise your head. I will help you change your makeup."
Hearing the words of the mountain god, Chen Shishi hurriedly responded, and then raised her face very cooperatively.
Soon, Xu Boan used the art of disguise to change Chen Shishi's pretty face with delicate eyebrows into that of a peasant woman, and her face became wider. Even Yan Xiaojiu might not be able to recognize her.
The beautiful woman who had captured people’s hearts at first sight now looked much more ordinary, and even had a long scar on her cheek, which made people feel intimidated.
"Grandpa Mountain God is truly powerful. His disguise technique is simply astonishing." Yan Xiaojiu and Liu Shishi praised in amazement.
Xu Boan took a look at it, but still felt a little dissatisfied.
Although Liu Shishi's appearance has changed, her eyes have not changed much. They still have that trained look, emitting a charming gaze all the time, making people feel pity for her.
This is to cover up the changes.
Xu Boan suddenly remembered that Chen Pingping once wore a strange contact lens-like thing, which could directly change the original pupil color of the eyes after wearing it!
Yes, this is a good idea!
Technology changes life, and now we can also use the products of modern technology to further optimize the quality, efficiency and results of disguise.
Soon, Xu Boan took out his cell phone and called Chen Pingping.
Chen Pingping answered the phone quickly, and there was some noisy sound on the other end of the line.
As soon as the call was connected, Chen Pingping's voice came from the microphone: "Hello, Bo'an, I'm buying vegetables, what do you want to eat?"
This sentence is cleverly said. Instead of letting the leader greet you first, you should report your work at hand to the leader first.
This can not only show that you are working diligently and not slacking off, but also allow the leader to consider whether the busy subordinate can handle the work when he instructs them to do other work next time.
Xu Boan said casually: "It's up to you. I'm not picky about food, you know that, and the dishes you cook are all delicious."
Chen Pingping said happily: "Haha, thank you, I'm very happy you said that. By the way, Boan, what are you calling about?"
Xu Boan explained as much as possible based on his own understanding: "It's like this, I remember you have something that can change the color of the pupils of your eyes, like contact lenses, right?"
Chen Pingping responded, "Oh, you mean colored contact lenses? Yes, I have some, but not all the colors. They are used by young girls. I bought some and tried them, but I didn't think they were suitable for me, so I didn't use them. What's wrong? Do you need them?"
What Chen Pingping said was very clever. On the one hand, it proved that she was not the kind of glamorous vase who only knew how to dress up. On the other hand, it could also infer what the use of Xu Boan was for this thing?
After all, Chen Pingping had never heard of the use of cosmetic contact lenses, other than changing pupil color and creating an exotic effect.
If Xu Boan wanted to give them to young girls, when she heard that his contact lenses were not available in all colors and were old items that had been stored for a while, she would definitely not want to use outdated cosmetics according to the preferences of young girls today.
If that were the case, Xu Boan would definitely not ask to borrow it again.
Xu Boan didn't think so much about it. After hearing Chen Pingping's description, Xu Boan was quite happy and felt that his useless knowledge had increased a bit!
Colored contact lenses? Wow, the name of this thing is very appropriate, beautifying the pupils!
Xu Boan nodded and said, "Yes, this should be it. I need a pair for a few days. What do you think is the price for this thing?"
If Xu Boan knew the price of something, he would not be shy with Chen Pingping and would not mention the money if he thought it was cheap. However, Xu Boan was not familiar with the process of dressing up for women. He just heard that some cosmetics and tools were very expensive, so Xu Boan mentioned it in case it was too expensive and Chen Pingping was embarrassed to ask him for money, which would make him look like he was taking advantage of her.
