The ghost hooked

Qin Huai's disguise technique is superb, not only can't see through it, even if he touches it, he can't feel the difference from his skin.

Touching Qin Huai's face for a long time, Xiaobao was a little irritable, and pulled his ear to tear it off.

Qin Huai hurriedly moved away, and said: "You are enough! Don't think that I dare not beat you up," he moved his face closer to Xiaobao, pointed to a place next to his ear, and said, "Here, from here to this Tear it in the direction." As he spoke, he gestured for him the direction.

According to his method, Xiaobao successfully tore off the film covering his face.

This film is skin-colored, thin, it can conduct heat when it is attached to the skin, and it is very light to wear on the face, no matter it looks or feels, it is difficult to find flaws.

"You want to teach me how to do this?" Xiaobao asked.

Qin Huai, who had just been torn off a layer of skin, thought he could be fooled, felt helpless at this moment, nodded, and said, "Yes, but the art of disguise cannot be solved by just a layer of skin, you have to learn to imitate sounds and movements .”

Qin Huai thought Xiaobao would ask more specific questions, but he changed the question instead.

Xiao Bao stared at Qin Huai's face that he had been watching for several months, and asked quite seriously, "Is this face of yours disguised?"

Qin Huai's real name is Qin Huansheng, and people in the world call him Shadow Fox. Not only is he a master of martial arts, but he also excels in disguise. He often wears more than one layer of skin. Few people know his age and appearance.

At this time, Xiaobao's eyes were full of expectation and trust, pure and inviolable.

Qin Huai hooked the corner of his mouth slightly, whispered a word into his ear, and Xiao Bao relaxed accordingly.

He ordered a man in gray to drive the car, and Xiao Bao sat in the car. Xiao Bao asked, "Qin Huai, where are we going, and when will we go back to find Baigui and them?"

Qin Huai looked at the young man who was eating dry food slowly in front of him, he was obviously different from the bald boy in Nancun.

At that time, he disguised himself to go to see the father of an old friend, but he didn't expect to encounter bandits. In order to drive Xue Baigui and others away, he threw snowballs at Xiaobao. Now that half a year has passed, the boy seems to have matured a lot.

Qin Huai leaned back and said: "Now it's October, let's work faster, and we will definitely be able to meet them in the capital before the Chinese New Year."

Speeding up the horse, working day and night, and changing several horses, Qin Huai and Xiao Bao finally arrived at a small town in the northwest of Liang State at the end of October.

Arriving in Liuke Town, Qin Huai's mood was complicated beyond words.

Along the way, Qin Huai taught Xiao Bao the art of disguise. In his opinion, Xiao Bao often couldn't understand what he thought was easy to understand. Facing a young boy, Qin Huai could only comfort himself that not everyone was as smart as him .

But after starting to move his hands, Xiaobao's stupidity can't be described in words. Ten out of ten times at the beginning, he would make mistakes. Whenever Qin Huai got angry, he would pout and cry. The landlord, Qin Huai naturally couldn't do anything to him, so he had to teach him over and over again.

After more than half a month of study, Xiaobao can finally adjust the ointment correctly five times out of ten. Thinking about the dough making, peeling steps, voice, body shape, etc. that will be taught later, Qin Huai feels a headache. .

Of course, he didn't expect it at this time, and the troubles that followed were far more troublesome than he imagined.

It was almost dusk at this time, the man in gray drove the carriage to a narrow street in the small town, before the carriage stopped, Qin Huai got out of the carriage first.

He opened the curtain, took the cloth bundle from Xiaobao's hand, helped Xiaobao get out of the carriage and jumped off the carriage.

At this time, Xiaobao was wearing a thin red cotton padded jacket. The outer fabric of the padded jacket was silk cloth, embroidered with cloud patterns, which was expensive. He was wearing a tiger-headed Little Red Riding Hood. Of course, this was not the one Lin Fangfei made for him, but It's a new hat I bought on the way.

Seeing Xiaobao's attire, Qin Huai's heart bleeds.

The further north we went, the lower the temperature was. The thin shirts we wore in Quanzhou were no longer able to keep out the cold, and Xiaobao was not frost-resistant, so he put on cotton coats early.

When he was in Zhangcun, all the clothes Xiaobao wore were made of good materials, which gave him a precious body, and he couldn't wear ordinary fabrics.

Here I have to mention the reason why Qinhuai and Huai traveled day and night. It was not because they were in a hurry, but because for the first few days, every time Xiaobao went to a place, he was so happy that he wanted to buy things, and he couldn't walk when he saw food. If you don't get what you want, you will cry.

The point is that Xiaobao has no money. Xiaobao said that he spends Zhang San's money, and he is a poor man when Zhang San is not around.

Therefore, Qin Huai had to pay for all Xiaobao's expenses, and Qin Huai's family's great business naturally didn't care about the few taels of silver, not to mention that [-]% or [-]% of the food Xiaobao bought went into his stomach.

Until Xiaobao found a jade shop in a certain county, things got out of hand. Xiaobao, who had never bought luxury goods, knew nothing about the price. Give it to Xue Baigui.

A piece of high-quality jade is at least a hundred taels of silver, how could Qin Huai allow him to waste money like this, knocking him unconscious and throwing him into the car.On the road that followed, the two of them never stopped at any place again, and Qin Huai ordered his subordinates to buy them for food and beverages, and the two settled in the carriage.

At this time, the red padded jacket on Xiaobao's body was embroidered with the famous Shu embroidery. It was bought by Qin Huai in order to apologize to Xiaobao. Who made him knock Xiaobao unconscious for the second time?

In order to get Xiaobao to help, Qin Huai spent all his patience in his life.

The two of them entered a dilapidated house, while Xue Baigui and the others also returned to the capital.

It is reasonable to say that it took a few months for a few people to go south, but when they went north, it was impossible to reach the capital in more than half a month. In fact, they did arrive, and all this was due to Xue Baigui, who was already sick. .

Xue Baigui was weak and seasick, so he only traveled by land when he went south. Since he separated from Xiaobao, his thoughts overwhelmed his reason, so he resolutely decided to go north by boat regardless of everyone's opposition.

Xue Xiujie had money, so he chartered a passenger ship, took officers, soldiers and Gu Hao manpower, and traveled day and night.

Xue Baigui spent these days on the boat, other than sleeping, he drank herbal medicine every day. After drinking, he vomited, and when he felt better, he ate some food and continued to vomit. After eating, vomiting seemed to be an unbreakable cycle.

Several people on the boat naturally advised him not to harm his body like this, but he only said: "If you survive a catastrophe, you will have a future blessing. I didn't die when I was seriously ill seven years ago, and I didn't die when I met an assassin a few days ago. If it's seasick, what can I do!"

Xu Shi suddenly changed the waterway, but the people behind the scenes didn't expect it, and the journey went smoothly, and they didn't even meet water bandits.

It's just that Xue Baigui suffered a lot on this journey, and when he got off the boat, he was already pale and weak.If it wasn't for his good spirits, Xue Xiujie would have thought that his soul would return to Lihentian at any time.

Regardless of how long it will take for Xue Baigui to recover after returning home, Xiaobao is listening to Qin Huai telling stories while eating.

Liuke Town is a small town in the west not far from the Great Wall. This town is not big, but all industries are developing well. Because there are many business travelers passing by, people will not reject or be curious about strangers.

Qin Huai looked at the dilapidated furniture in the house, and said: "When I first came here about eight years ago, there used to be a family of three living in this house.

"The owner of the house is an old man. An old man can't be called an old man. He is only in his 40s. He doesn't go out to work, but he is a real alcoholic.

"The old man doesn't drink well, and he beats people after drinking too much. His wife couldn't bear his beatings and scolded, so she ran away secretly one night.

"The old man's wife ran away, and the one who was beaten became his son.

"The old man's son is a filial young man. The young man works as a waiter in a store. When he has nothing to do, he learns some bookkeeping skills from the accountant in the store.

"That young man is diligent, smart, and kind-hearted. From time to time, he will spend a few copper coins to help beggars. But no matter how hard he makes money every month, his father will eventually take it to drink.

"Whenever his father finds out that the money is short, or if something goes wrong, he will beat the boy until one day, the boy disappears.

"His father said that the boy couldn't bear it like his mother and ran away, but everyone nearby said that the boy was beaten to death by his father."

Having said that, Qin Huai felt somewhat uncomfortable. He looked at Xiaobao and said, "The boy's body has not been found. No one knows if he died or how he died."

Seriously recalling the story Qin Huai told, Xiaobao suddenly had a flash of inspiration and asked, "Is the boy you mentioned named Shang Qing?"

After half a year of experience, Xiaobao also felt in his heart that he was connected with people in Zhangcun, he said: "I know the accountant, he died long ago, and now it's time to start a new life. "

A ghost servant in a warehouse in the underworld sneezed three times in a row. Shang Qing looked around and thought: It's fine if there is wind in the underworld, maybe ghosts can catch a cold too.

But this matter is far from as easy as Xiaobao thought. Qin Huai nodded after hearing what he said, and said: "I know he is dead, and everyone in this area also knows."

After a pause, Qin Huai looked at Xiaobao and said earnestly: "What I said was all about spying. Although I should have been here eight years ago, I have forgotten it. I can only remember that I have been here every year for the past few years. Come here for a few days."

Seeing that Xiaobao was listening seriously, Qin Huai said again: "I often dream of a ghost, he said that he stole my memory, if I can win him, he will return the memory to me."

Although Qin Huai's story was rather weird, Xiao Bao's focus was as off as ever. He tried to recall what happened in Yunlai Village before, and asked, "Qin Huai, do you like Mr. Shang? Want to find out who killed him? "

Hearing this, Qin Huai choked, he frowned and thought for a long time and said, "I don't think so, I really can't remember the first time I came to this town, and I also think there was an important person in that experience, but that person Maybe it's not Shang Qing..."

Speaking of this, Qin Huai realized that he was led astray by Xiaobao, he hurriedly ended the conversation, and said helplessly: "I know you can see ghosts, I want you to help me get back that memory."
