Chapter 316: A Mask

Wang Yueyao returned to her residence in Taiping City with dust and went to Dengxian Lake again this time because Shu Hui called to see her in person. She originally didn't want to go. Last time Shu Hui expressed his admiration in front of her without any concealment, which made Wang Yueyao feel a little unbearable. She thought about it. Considering that the Taiping Army had just revealed major information to Shu Hui, and in just one month, Shu Hui returned to Dengxian again, which was very likely related to this matter, she decided to meet the man.

Shu Hui is undoubtedly an excellent man, but unfortunately the camps of both sides are different. As the core member of the Taiping Army, Wang Yueyao knows a lot of inside stories that even Liu Xingwen doesn't know. He knows that one day the two sides will break up and fight together, and it is impossible for her and him to do so.

Fortunately, although Shu Hui was attentive, he was not the kind of man who was stubborn. Until now, he has always been polite and polite, which made Wang Yueyao admire him very much, but it was just an appreciation.

The result of the trip also confirmed Wang Yueyao's idea. Everything was indeed related to that information, but the matter of Shu Hui's proposal to meet Qin Feng made Wang Yueyao extremely embarrassed. Shu Hui and Qin Feng fought each other in the Luoying Mountains for thousands of miles. Their reflection of each other was unforgettable. Once the two met, Shu Hui was very likely to recognize Qin Feng. In this way, the truth that Qin Feng had been trying hard to hide might surface, which would affect the subsequent development of the Taiping Army.

She could only give an ambiguous answer, so she hurried back to Taiping City. However, outside her residence, she actually saw an old acquaintance whom she hadn't seen for a long time, Shu Chang.

Shu Chang was elusive in Taiping City. He often left for a long time without a trace. Wang Yueyao was used to it. Seeing Shu Chang standing outside her residence, her unkempt face, she lost weight, her hair and beard were messy, and she was holding a jar tightly in her hand, looking helplessly at Xiaoshui who was guarding her door.

When she went to see Shu Hui, it was naturally impossible for Xiaoshui to follow her.

"Brother Shu!" she screamed in surprise: "Are you back?"

Hearing Wang Yueyao's screams, Shu Chang turned his head suddenly, and the small water had already shot to Wang Yueyao like an arrow, and grabbed Wang Yueyao's clothes with one hand, but his eyes were still staring at Shu Chang with vigilance.

Looking at Xiaoshui, who was like a puppy protecting his master, Shu Chang shook her head helplessly: "This is really an ungrateful wolf. I ate so many candy prepared for him. I saw me but still looked like an enemy. I wanted to go into your room and sit and wait for you. This guy was blocking me so much. If I hadn't beat him, I would have wanted to beat him up."

Hearing Shu Chang's words, Wang Yueyao giggled and reached out to touch Xiaoshui's head. Xiaoshui was much taller than Wang Yueyao, but as soon as Wang Yueyao stretched out her hand, Xiaoshui consciously bent her knees so that Wang Yueyao could touch his head smoothly. Seeing all this, Shu Chang felt weird and funny.

"Brother Shu, where have you been going this month?" While smiling, he took Xiaoshui's hand and walked into the house, "Brother Shu, sit in the house."

Shu Chang rolled her eyes proudly at Xiaoshui. Of course, the response she received was Xiaoshui's bigger, black eyes that could hardly be seen.

After walking into the room, Shu Chang carefully placed the porcelain jar in her hand on the table before she sat down.

"I just returned to Taiping City. I heard that you went to Dengxian Lake again. What did that Shu Hui do for you? This kid is still entangled with you. It's really a toad that wants to eat swan meat. It seems that I have to find a way to teach him a lesson." Shu Chang scratched his hair that was entangled with ropes, a little angry.

Such a blunt statement made Wang Yueyao blush.

"No, this time it's a serious matter, he wants to see the general." Wang Yueyao said: "The last time we handed over the information about the Chu people landing in Baoqing, Changyang to them. The Qi people attach great importance to this. Shu Hui came this time to see the general, saying that he was on the order of their emperor and wanted to talk to the general about some in-depth cooperation. I am not in charge."

"See him?" Shu Chang's head shook like a rattle, "He recognized Qin Feng, this boy's eyes are terrifying. I don't think Qin Feng will see him."

"The general went to Taiping Iron Mine and will be back in the next two days. When the general comes back, make a decision on his own. This matter is certainly extraordinary." Wang Yueyao shook his head and said, "Or there is a way for the general. By the way, Brother Shu, what is in this jar? Have you developed any medicine? Such a treasure?"

"This is not medicine!" Shu Chang patted the jar proudly, "This is what I did for you, haha, it took me nearly two months and finally got it done. This time I went out to find the last important thing. I searched in the mountains for nearly a month. Fortunately, with Old Man Liu following him, he got rid of danger, otherwise I would have to be caught by the savages in the mountains."

Wang Yueyao was shocked, "Have you entered the Wild Man Mountain Realm?"

"I'm here, let alone, some tribes there are really ancient people. Some are simple and easy to get along with, while others are so fierce. Fortunately, Old Man Liu, haha, it's worth curing him this time. I finally have a ninth-level bodyguard. Humph!" He raised his middle finger at Xiaoshui. Xiaoshui spitted in the direction of him without hesitation, and Shuchang was so angry that he was overturned.

"It's specially for me?" Wang Yueyao was very surprised. "Brother Shu, I don't lack anything, and I'm in good health, so I'm not sick?"

Shu Chang stretched out a finger and shook it, "No, no, I remember three months ago, you told me that in the past six months, the skin was rough? Yes, in this mountain, there is no comparison between you in the home at the foot of the mountain. You were able to go wherever you had built Shayang County City, but with this oil bottle, you had to stay in Taiping City. I just thought of getting a recipe to make sure that your skin is still as usual even in the mountains. After two months of work, I almost slid into the cold pond. But around this, I found several cold ponds, so I could only search for the Wild Man Mountain. Fortunately, I was lucky, and finally found it."

He offered treasure and opened the seal on the jar. As soon as he opened it, a faint fragrance immediately floated in the room. He stretched out two fingers and carefully picked up something from inside and spread it in front of Wang Yueyao.

This is a piece of paper as thin as a cicada's wings, and it is still dripping downwards.

"What is this?" Wang Yueyao asked in surprise.

"Don't underestimate this thing. It's made of precious medicinal materials. If you measure it in silver, it's worth at least dozens of taels of silver." Shu Chang shook her head and said, "Put it on her face once every ten days. No matter what environment it is in, your skin will be as delicate and smooth as a baby. I call it a facial mask."

Wang Yueyao exclaimed softly. Even though she was spoiled before, she could never afford such a thin thing that would cost dozens of taels of silver.

“So expensive?”

"Not expensive, not expensive." Shu Chang shook his head repeatedly, "What's this? That's it. These medicinal materials were picked or planted by myself. To be honest, they took some effort to develop them. Compared to making your skin look like before, it is really not worth it."

"Brother Shu, I, I just said that, I really don't know you, you are so worried?" Wang Yueyao looked at Shu Chang with emotion.

"Haha, this is nothing. For me, it's a small effort. It's OK. I'll give you something. Remember, I'll use it once every ten days. This jar is enough for you to use it for the first half of a year. After half a year, I'll give you a match. Haha, I'll leave, I have to take a shower. After Liu Laoer came back, he couldn't wait to take a shower. He also said that if I don't take a shower, I'll come here and I'll definitely drive it out. I said that Miss Wang is not such a person. She must be so embarrassed about this old boy when she goes back. She'll leave." He stood up, shook his shoulders and walked out with a swaying sway.

Looking at Shu Chang's back, Wang Yueyao stood up, but did not send Shu Chang out of the house. She just looked at the thin mask in her hand in a daze. After a while, she sat down, raised her face, and gently applied the wax on her face. The mask was made extremely exquisitely, and the holes were opened just right in the eyes, nose, and mouth.

The fragrance spread from the tip of the nose to the depths of the mind, and the coolness seemed to penetrate from the skin to the heart. However, Wang Yueyao was confused deep in her heart.

She is twenty-one years old this year and is no longer a girl who has just fallen in love. A woman's heart has long been beautiful. How could she not know what Shu Chang's seemingly casual actions contain? Just a casual sentence, the other party actually remembered it deeply in his heart, and spent several months quietly seeking ways to help her. How could she not know what the meaning here is?

"Xiaoshui, what should I do?" Wang Yueyao turned his head and looked at Xiaoshui who was staring at curiously looking at the mask on his face.

Shu Chang returned to her Yaopu, and her expression was like a boy who had just eaten delicious food. She was so excited that she didn't even see the old master Liu standing next to the medicine garden with a fan.

"Send it out?" Old Master Liu asked with a smile.

Shu Chang was shocked. Huo looked back at Old Master Liu and said angrily: "Silent, like a ghost, who should I scare?"

"Who looks like a ghost? I've been standing here for you, you can't see it." Old Master Liu laughed: "Doctor Shu, with your status and ability, I really like this girl. I rushed to her and said, "This is a twist and turns, it's not like your personality."
