The more Shen Xing thought about it, the more he felt that this was a possibility. If he had not joined them, the investigation team would not have given him a telescopic stick that could hit ghosts.
Perhaps what they were interested in was their strong mental resistance in the face of abnormalities.
In the following time, I rested at home for one day and opened the store for two days.
On the fourth day, Shen Xing took some time to go to the city's first hospital and did a free physical examination, and then he took away a physical examination certificate card.
During the physical examination, he also deliberately asked the doctor to check his arms to see if he could find out the reason for the increased strength of his fingers, but everything was normal after the examination.
The wood supplied by the wood supplier Lao Wan last time has arrived, and Shen Xing asked Lao Wan to deliver it directly to the "Tingwu" store.
The wood he purchases is mostly loose and soft wooden structures, such as pine, nanmu, camphor wood, ginkgo wood, etc. He mainly runs a small business, and the products he sells are mainly simple in shape and easy to use. This is the position Shen Xing gave himself.
Small profits but quick turnover, and the production of finished products is fast, which enables it to be quickly and widely accepted by the public.
Of course, he will also purchase some hardwood appropriately, such as cypress, walnut, durian, etc. These woods are hard in texture, have high toughness and are not easily deformed. The value of the carved works is usually higher, but the pursuit of exquisiteness has a smaller audience.
But as long as one is sold, it can be worth the profit of several or even a dozen ordinary cork works.
She also got one of the shadow wood used to make the blood pupil, and Shen Xing planned to use it to make a second blood pupil wood carving.
As for the wood to make the face, he planned to use elm wood.
Elm is often called "elm knot" by the public, which means that it is extremely difficult to gain enlightenment and is difficult to cut down. However, the advantages of elm are also obvious. It has large undulating shapes and rich wood grain changes, which is suitable for making works with smooth and dynamic shapes.
The workbench in the Tingwu shop belongs to Shen Xing, and the one in the rental house was used by Ye Ting before.
Two workbenches, one for use in the shop and one for home.
Making wood carvings in the shop can achieve the effect of promoting the work in disguise. After all, many wood carvings can be mass-produced and assembled on the assembly line. They can only be regarded as small pieces of craftsmanship, and it is difficult to reach the hall of elegance.
The entrance notice of Tingwu Shop clearly states that the wood carvings in our shop are purely handmade, and each piece of the same finished product is slightly different, and it is definitely not an assembly line product.
During the day in the shop, Shen Xing made several small wood carvings, which belonged to the animation category. After returning home at night, he started processing the face wood carvings.
Sometimes I will make a second blood pupil wood carving instead.
After a week of consuming various wire saws, carving knives, electric dental machines and various grinding heads, the face and the second blood pupil were completed respectively.
On the night when the face was made, Shen Xing stared at the finished product and was a little confused for a moment.
The surface of the face work is a face, and the back is solid wood. It is not hollow. This allows the finished product to have a smaller base to rest on, making it easier to display.
The finished product has been waxed and looks lifelike, even giving people the illusion of being looking at the unearthed masks of ancient Egyptian pharaohs.
Staring at this face, Shen Xing recalled carefully at this moment that since he started making this face wood carving, he has been thinking about every detail, every texture and the composition of the wrinkles on the face. It seems that... he has never thought about this face at all. Does his face look like Song Xiaoyu’s?
Now I carefully compared it with the dark face that appeared in my mind. It was no different from my own work. But when I looked at the wood carving again, I definitely didn't look like Song Xiaoyu.
When I was making the wood carving, I didn't think about who it was similar to, and just made it according to the true appearance of the black shadow's face in my mind, so I made a face that was no different from the black shadow.
Thinking of this level, he sat in front of the workbench and turned on the brightness-adjustable desk lamp on the workbench to the maximum. The brightness had reached a point of dazzling.
Then put the cheeky wood carving under the light and examine it carefully.
After a while, Shen Xing discovered that this face looked more and more like a certain person!
She has light willow eyebrows, eyes as quiet as pools, a straight bridge of nose, thin and slightly raised lips, and two shallow pear dimples at the corners of her mouth, which seem to be smiling at herself...!
"Ye Ting!?"
Shen Xing was startled and woke up. In order to see the whole picture clearly, he leaned back and looked intently again.
Observing this time, I found that the appearance of the face-skinned wood carving seemed to have changed again.
Looking at the whole picture, there is no shadow of Ye Ting. Instead, there is a feeling of charming smile, weird and cunning, and she actually looks like Li Naijing!
"Fuck!"
Shen Xing was stunned. His eyes were straight and he didn't blink. He looked carefully and found that the more he looked, the more he looked like Li Naijing. Even after seeing this face, the thought "As an investigator has the power to enter any private field" came to his mind. "This is a treacherous statement.
This made Shen Xing start to speculate that the face could look like anyone, and the person it possessed would look similar to that person.
The face-faced wood carving that I made is also similar to the face-faced deity. In other words, in the eyes of a thousand people, the wood carving may appear as a thousand different faces.
It's just Shen Xing's feeling now, but if everyone could see it like him, then the value of this cheeky wood carving would be unimaginable!
Feeling really excited, he began to consider making a few more of these cheeky wood carvings and put them in the store to see if they could be sold at a good price.
Even if the price tag is a little higher, it is acceptable.
After pondering for a moment, an idea arose in Shen Xing's mind, and soon the dark shadow of the face in his mind disappeared.
The next second, a black shadow appeared in the face-skinned wooden sculpture in front of him, staying peacefully inside.
Not long after, lines of silver text popped up in his mind.
[The conditions for absorbing the facial properties have been reached. The absorption properties can increase the strength of the host body. Do you want to start absorbing now? 】
[Tip: If the understanding of its characteristics reaches more than 90%, there is a certain chance of discovering and absorbing the latent skills of face during the absorption process. 】
"99% understanding of the characteristics should be the limit for me to understand the abnormal characteristics." Shen Xing thought to himself.
"Start absorbing."
The feeling was the same as the last time I absorbed the fake Hong Bin and the Blood Eye Wood Sculpture. The Face Wood Sculpture trembled slightly, and there was a snap in my mind. The skin of my hands turned slightly red like a red-hot iron, and the body strength progress bar under the corner of my eyes increased. It has reached "100% mortal body".
"From 88% to 100%, it only increased by 12 percentage points!" Shen Xing was a little puzzled.
At the same moment, words popped up in my mind again.
[Acquire latent skills: face changing
Method: Active skills
Effect: Can generate another face to replace the host's original face
Consumption: low mental power
Side effects: Loss of identity, lasting at least 8 hours. 】
Looking at the text prompts for obtaining latent skills, Shen Xing understood it carefully.
The name of this latent skill is "Face Changing", which means that after it is activated, you can change your face, similar to the ancient art of disguise.
At present, my highest level of mental antibody energy is only level five. The energy consumed by low-level mental power is probably one level of mental power!
Otherwise, after activating the "face-changing" latent skill, what should I do if my mental antibody energy is not enough? If I encounter an anomaly with a strong mental attack, I will have to burp on the spot! ?
The final attribute description is that this skill has side effects, and the side effect is "loss of identity", and the duration is at least 8 hours.
Shen Xing probably guessed that since he had changed his face, others would not be able to recognize his identity, which was normal.
I am afraid that even if you use the top intelligent face recognition technology, you will not be able to recognize his true appearance.
In this case, the original identity will be temporarily lost, and the identity will be restored after the face change returns to normal.
Although he speculated like this, he always felt as if he had overlooked something.
