"What is Mr. Shen looking at?"
Gong Shuwu noticed early on that Shen Tang looked at him with surprise and envy, and a rare smile appeared on his haggard face.
Shen Tang was caught red-handed and looked away embarrassedly.
"Ahem, I found that Uncle Gong is really tall." She was the shortest among the four people present. Zhai Le was half a head taller than her. This made Shen Tang have to raise her head when talking to others, which was not very comfortable. She humbly asked for advice, "Is there any secret to growing taller quickly?"
It would be even better if there were tips on how to build muscle.
It is obvious that these horizontally trained muscles contain powerful explosive power, which cannot be concealed by ordinary cloth, making people envious.
If she had an impressive height and muscles that could punch a person's brain, all the idiots in the world would consciously be civilized and polite when seeing her.
Qishan: “…”
Zhai Le laughed unceremoniously.
Gong Shuwu was stunned at first, but then he smiled with relief, glanced at the Wen Xin seal on Shen Tang's waist, and said tactfully: "Mr. Shen is still young, it will take a few more years for him to grow rapidly."
Shen Tang asked: "No trick?"
“There is no trick.”
Except for a few exceptions, most Wudan warriors are taller and stronger than ordinary men. This is because only a strong physique can exert great power. If the body cannot withstand the power brought by Wudan, it will not kill the enemy but hurt itself.
Courage is the best trick.
It's a pity that the young man is a scholar with a literary mind.
Shen Tang: “…”
The word "disappointment" was written all over her face.
Qi Shan said: "Young Master Shen did remind me that I should conceal my appearance and the tiger talisman to avoid any trouble."
The body shape is not a big deal. After all, Gong Shuwu is not the only one who stands out in the crowd. As long as the Wudan Tiger Talisman passes the inspection and his appearance is not recognized, it is not difficult to get away with it. This is exactly one of Qishan's special skills. The only trouble is -
"This secret technique needs to be used once every seven days."
Gong Shuwu said: "Once in seven days?"
Qi Shan was ashamed: "Well, Shan's skills are not very good, and he can only maintain them for seven days. After seven days, he will return to his original appearance..."
Gong Shuwu sighed, with regret but no dissatisfaction - his family knew his own affairs, he had too many troubles, and if an outsider got involved, he would be in trouble and his life would be in danger. He was grateful to the righteous men who helped him.
"In that case, I will trouble you to perform the spell."
Gong Shuwu clasped his fists respectfully and Qishan's eyes were slightly curved.
He waved his hands repeatedly: "It's just a small favor, no trouble."
Shen Tang, who was standing on the side, raised his eyebrows.
Qishan helped Gong Shuwu disguise his appearance and the Wudan Tiger Talisman, and helped her cover up the Wenxin seal, which seemed to be the same method
How come she doesn't know that this thing has a time limit
Since the last disguise, Yuan Liang hadn't said anything like seven days to perform it again... If there really was a time limit, he would definitely remind himself, so as not to expose the flaws. Shen Tang's eyes flickered slightly, and he put all these thoughts in order and hid them in his heart.
She dared to bet that Yuan Liang was definitely plotting something bad!
"Sir, can you help me change it?" Zhai Le also wanted to join in the fun after seeing it, or the kind of "step to heaven", he said, "Let me think about it, I might as well change it to 20th rank Chehou! I'll use it to tease my brother later, so as not to scare him!"
The twentieth rank of Chehou, that is the goal that all warriors pursue throughout their lives! One man guarding the pass, ten thousand men unable to break through, how passionate!
Qishan: “…”
He inexplicably thought of Shen Xiaolangjun who had also spoken with the title of "First-class Upper-class Literary Mind" at that time, and the one in front of him wanted to be "Twentieth-class Chehou". Why didn't these two ascend on the spot? Just daydreaming!
Although he was secretly complaining in his heart, his actions fulfilled Zhai Le's little wish - when he used this disguised Wudan Tiger Talisman to tease his brother, he would be sure that he would not even know how he got beaten.
What happened last night did not affect Xiaocheng.
There was still an endless stream of people queuing up to enter the city, and the guards at the city gates were the same as usual - they yelled at ordinary people and acted arrogantly, and they fawned on those who had the Wenxin seal or the Wudan tiger seal, and tried their best to please them. The inspections were only symbolic.
After entering the city, the four people separated.
Zhai Le wanted to go back to his place to meet his brother. He was worried that his brother would go out to look for him because he did not return all night. He exchanged residences with Shen Tang and made an appointment to go out together. The most important thing was to know when Mr. Shen would set up a stall to sell wine so that he could patronize the business.
As for Gong Shuwu—
Because of the seven-day limitation, if he wanted to stay in Xiaocheng, he couldn't be too far away from Qishan. At this time, Qishan "kindly" told him that he could rent the house next door. Gong Shuwu felt embarrassed to refuse the kindness, so he agreed. Shen Tang witnessed everything as a bystander.
She felt more and more that Qi Yuanliang was up to something bad.
The three returned to their accommodation, and Qi Shan asked the old woman to help Gong Shuwu solve the housing problem. After a while, Chu Yao came back with a few bags of lotus leaves, followed by a sturdy child. The child had two high-top pigtails and a rosy face.
Holding a living creature wrapped in cloth, he humped it.
He asked Shen Tang: "Is Wu Lang sober now?"
Qi Shan said angrily: "If he doesn't sober up now, how dare we bring him back? He can tear down Xiaocheng completely!"
Chu Yao teased, "Did Wulang recover the treasure?"
Shen Tang blushed with embarrassment and stammered, "Hey, weren't you drunk? Drunken talk is not to be trusted. It's all a misunderstanding."
Qishan: "Mr. Shen has brought back the 'treasure'."
Chu Yao was surprised and asked, "Didn't you say it was a misunderstanding?"
"We chased him all the way last night and rescued a person more than 20 miles outside the city." Qi Shan's anger rekindled when he thought of what happened last night, and his tone became more aggressive. "I spent so much effort and risked so much to rescue him, how can I not call him a 'treasure'?"
Chu Yao: “…”
He was somewhat curious about the people Qishan brought back.
Although he and Qi Yuanliang were only spiritual friends before yesterday and he only saw him in person yesterday, he knew from past rumors that this guy would not get up early unless there was something to gain. Although he had enemies everywhere, he did not like to get involved in trouble, and once he did, there would be benefits to be gained.
Let him see—
Is that unlucky guy being targeted again
Chu Yao didn't say anything, but his expression betrayed his inner thoughts. Qi Shan understood what he meant and his brows twitched violently.
He glanced around and noticed the fat boy following behind Chu Yao, so he asked, "Who is this kid from?"
Chu Yao: "He is the son of the butcher in the butcher shop. His father paid me a tuition fee, and I can't just ignore his son. Anyway, Wu Lang will stay in Xiaocheng for a while, so I brought him here to teach him. In this world, it's always a good idea to learn a few more skills to keep yourself safe."
After saying that, he patted the little fat boy on the top of his head.
He looked at Shen Tang and said to the fat boy, "Don't be nervous. This gentleman is the fifth son of the Shen family, my master."
The child lowered his head awkwardly, stepped forward and gave a not-so-standard greeting. He looked fat, but his voice was surprisingly crisp: "Hello, my dear."
Chu Yao looked at Qi Shan again.
"This is Qi Yuanliang, just call him Mr."
The little fat boy said obediently: "Hello, sir."
Qi Shan looked better towards the child and nodded as a greeting. He was about to go into the house to rest - he had slept outdoors last night in poor conditions and had an uneasy sleep due to mosquitoes - at this moment, he heard a very slight "meow" sound in his ear, and he stopped in his tracks.
Then Shen Tang asked the little fat boy, "Is that a cat in your arms?"
