"But even if I can find it, it will cost me a lot of time and energy. Maybe the final income will not be worth the money I spent during the search." Shu Shichu added.
"..." Old Man Bai was immediately choked by her words. He had spent most of his life looking for this treasure. Naturally, he knew that what Shu Shichu said was right. But at this time, except for this treasure map, he had nothing else. There was nothing else he could use to ask her for help, so with his last hope, he told another important news, "Have you noticed that the world is very lively recently? It's not just the big sects that have become active. Even many heroes who have retired from the world have come out."
When Shu Shichu heard what he said, he immediately became energetic and asked excitedly: "Did something big happen?"
Old Man Bai nodded: "It's for the treasures of the previous dynasty. Legend has it that the last emperor of the previous dynasty had people secretly hide all the money in the treasury before the country was completely destroyed. He wanted to keep it for the future restoration of the country, but then that happened The last emperor failed to escape and was killed. The treasures he transported away were lost. It has been almost two hundred years and no one has found them yet.
But in the past two months, there have been rumors in the world, saying that a treasure map of the former royal family's treasure has been circulated, so everyone is ready to make a move. After all, it is such a huge fortune. Whoever gets it will be truly wealthy. Well, even those well-known and decent people can't resist this temptation. "
After Shu Shichu finished listening to this very classic legend, his excitement disappeared. This rumor was unreliable no matter how unreliable it was. It was like a trap specially set for Jianghu people. Maybe the person behind the scenes spreading this news was just to cause chaos. In this arena, all the forces in the arena have been wiped out.
"You don't want to think that the incomplete treasure map you got may be the treasure map of the previous royal family?" Shu Shichu asked Old Man Bai directly, "But wasn't your treasure map more than ten years old?" Did you find it years ago? Isn’t it very different from the treasure map in the past two months? Also, could the tomb you robbed be the tomb of the previous dynasty? "
Old man Bai shook his head: "It's not the tomb of the previous dynasty, but the tomb of a famous eunuch from the previous dynasty. The eunuch's name was Zhang Ying." After saying that, he looked at Shu Shichu meaningfully.
Shu Shichu immediately understood that Zhang Ying was the most useful eunuch leader around the last emperor of the previous dynasty. He was trusted by the emperor and had great power. It was said that he could even approve memorials for the emperor. If he had a collection of the royal treasures of the previous dynasty, Treasure map, the credibility is very high.
"Didn't it mean that he disappeared after the death of the previous dynasty? Didn't no one know his whereabouts? How are you sure that it is Zhang Ying's tomb?" Shu Shichu asked again.
"I found his identity certificate in his coffin, as well as many treasures specially given to him by the previous emperor. These can be matched with historical records, so it must be Zhang Ying's tomb." Old Man Bai Said very firmly.
Shu Shichu temporarily believed him: "Well, you can use the incomplete treasure map in exchange for my help."
Old Man Bai was overjoyed immediately: "Thank you so much, girl! My little girl and I are grateful!"
Bai Xiuxiu was also very happy and said: "We don't dare to beg too much. We just hope that the girl will help us get out of the city when the city gate opens tomorrow."
"Okay." Shu Shichu agreed happily, and fed them the other half of the antidote. After a while, the two men completely recovered their ability to move.
Old man Bai took out an envelope from his personal clothes, took out the well-preserved treasure map, handed it to Shu Shichu reluctantly, and said, "I will give this treasure map to the girl. I hope she can succeed." Decrypt it."
Shu Shichu took it and took a look. It had very complex and abstract patterns drawn on it. It looked like messy scribbling lines and didn't look like a map at all. No wonder Old Man Bai couldn't find this place after spending most of his life. Shu Shi She was confused when she first saw it, but now was not the time to decrypt it, so she put the treasure map away.
"I will disguise you as another person, one that has no resemblance to your current appearance. I will leave tomorrow, and then you can just follow me out of the city." Shu Shichu said simply said.
"Can you disguise yourself?" Bai Xiuxiu asked in surprise. She herself had thought about disguising herself and left, but she didn't know this skill, so she could only smear her face with plaster crudely. It was simple and crude, but very unsafe. As long as she used water With just one touch, his true colors were revealed. Now that he heard that Shu Shi had changed his appearance for the first time, he was naturally very happy.
Shu Shichu nodded, glanced at her, and said, "Don't worry, my disguise skills are pretty good. I guarantee that even your own father won't recognize you after the disguise."
"That's great!" Bai Xiuxiu was extremely happy, and Old Man Bai also looked at her excitedly.
Shu Shichu asked them to sit down at the table, found his own disguise tools, and began to disguise the two of them.
Because Bai Xiuxiu was wearing men's clothing, Shu Shichu simply disguised her as a lifelike young man.
She first wiped off the dirt on Bai Xiuxiu's face, then took out the disguise potion she prepared and applied a layer of white and yellowish disguise to Bai Xiuxiu's face. Then she used a weird pen to paint She puts on makeup, and this makeup is not the makeup that ordinary girls wear to look good, but the makeup that changes the shape of her eyes, the height of her nose, the size of her lips, etc. in a very obvious way.
Old man Bai watched from the side as Shu Shichu slowly helped his daughter to disguise herself. He watched his daughter gradually transform from a girl with a clear face and soft facial features into an ordinary-looking teenager with a yellowish complexion and strong facial features. He was so shocked that his eyes were filled with shock. His eyes widened. If he hadn't seen how his daughter had changed with his own eyes, he really wouldn't have believed that the honest boy in front of him not only changed his appearance, but even his gender, was his daughter!
Shu Shichu stuck the carefully shaped "Adam's apple" in the middle of Bai Xiuxiu's neck, and used the disguise potion to carefully blend the edge of the Adam's apple with the surrounding skin. After making sure it was seamless, he stopped with satisfaction.
"This...is it okay to disguise yourself?" Old Man Bai asked in a daze.
"Not yet." Shu Shichu said, taking Bai Xiuxiu's hands, painting the skin of her hands the same color as her face, and specially thickening her finger joints to look like those of a teenager who is used to doing rough work. After holding up his hand, he said: "Now I'm disguised."
As soon as Bai Xiuxiu heard what she said, she quickly picked up the bronze mirror and looked at her face carefully. Looking at the strange boy in the mirror, she blurted out in shock: "Who is this?!"
After saying this, she realized, isn't this herself? Realizing this, she touched her face with bright eyes and said, "They are really similar, there are no flaws at all..."
