Life is actually so wonderful, there will always be something suddenly smashed on your head when you don't expect it, sometimes it's a rock, sometimes it's a pie.
Shen Wentian, a liar who once traveled all over the world. After studying deception for most of his life and practicing deception for most of his life, he has gained a lot of money. What's more important is that he has never made a mistake, and even the people he has deceived have rarely noticed that they have been deceived.
It is actually simple to say that Shen Wentian is a master of liars. He calls himself a trickster. Just like those array masters and alchemists outside. Very proud.
But people always look forward. Although Shen Wentian is obsessed with deception, he also understands that this business is definitely not one that can be continued from generation to generation. He may be able to make it foolproof, but what about his descendants? If you miss once, it will be a disaster.
So when Shen Wentian turned sixty-five, he decided to take his family into seclusion and chose Xin Liangcheng in Jingzhong to become a small wealthy household with several small businesses.
However, life has never been easy. Even if you have enough food and clothing, there will always be troubles coming to your door.
For example, the little grandson at home has a bright mind, studies hard, and is said to be inspired to become a high official. But Shen Wentian understood that their family had a little money at most, and they would not dare to reveal their wealth if they had a lot of money. If the grandson wanted to pursue an official career in the future, the ceiling would be very low. He would be lucky if he could become a small official in one place. Senior official? Impossible.
Another example is that there are people who are worried about the small business at home, and they often come to get some money.
In addition, the children in the family who also learned the craft were restless. They always wanted to go out and try their luck, want to stand out, and even eagerly hoped to promote the family craft.
All this worried Shen Wentian.
That's right, Shen Wentian is not a fake name but his real name. His family's real surname is Shen, and Xin Liangcheng is really his hometown of the Shen family, but it is already a bit far away from Shen Wentian's generation. This is also the reason why he chose to live in seclusion in Xinliang City.
Isn’t it about being a fallen leaf that returns to its roots?
But by chance, Shen Wentian discovered that someone was secretly investigating the history of the Shen family. At first, he was worried, but later he discovered that the other person had no ill intentions and seemed to be looking for someone's roots. So Shen Wentian started to think about it and used his skills over the years to find out secretly, and he actually found out the reason.
They are from Xuanqing Guard, and they are investigating the life experience of a senior official in Xuanqing Guard. That senior official is named Shen Hao.
Are you checking for the evil star? !
With his mind racing, Shen Wentian slowly felt that this was a good opportunity. The more he thought about it, the more rare the opportunity became. So we began to prepare actively in secret.
It is said that Shen Hao's ancestors are from Xinliang City, and I happen to be the same, and both have the surname Shen.
Shen Hao was young when he ran away from home. It is impossible to remember things from his childhood after so many years. He could only remember some fragments, which gave Shen Wentian a lot of room for free play.
So he mobilized his family to make preparations for more than a year. In the end, just as Shen Hao had guessed, he pretended to have casually connected his family with Shen Hao's life experience, attracting more Xuanqing guards. After repeated investigations, the final genealogy was "a certainty" as soon as it came out.
As a liar, you know more than just words and skills in craftsmanship. Of course, you can't lack the skills in hand. For fakes, you can choose ancient ink stones and copper bars, and then use special techniques to process them to make them look fake, plus Shen Wentian's craftsmanship bonus. , even the experts in Xuanqing Guard have difficulty distinguishing the authenticity.
As for the acting skills, five or six people from the Shen family are enough. The others were kept in the dark and were also plotted together in this performance. It really couldn't be more true.
Although this matter is very risky and risks confiscating the family and exterminating the family, once it succeeds, the things Shen Wentian has been worried about will completely change, and the entire Shen family will rely on an extremely powerful tree, and it will be absolutely easy to rise to the top from now on. Incomparable.
Is this considered a lie to Yongyi?
Although Shen Wentian really hopes to get in touch with Mr. Shen, after all, he thinks he has the best acting skills, but his identity is now there, he is Mr. Shen's "uncle", it is not appropriate to go to his junior, so he sent His eldest son and his third daughter were in the past, and he thought these two were the ones with the best acting skills.
Fortunately, he was on Shen Wentian's side. His eldest son and third daughter asked someone to bring a letter back, saying, "My cousin is very kind and has settled us in his house."
kind? Will the dignified commander of the Black Flag Battalion, nicknamed "Evil Star", be kind? That's not just for the sake of his family. Shen Wentian laughed three times in his heart with satisfaction.
This is the last time. If I cheat this time, my family’s craftsmanship will be sealed and no one will pass it on.
Lost? pity? Shen Wentian sneered, who would be a serious person willing to be a liar?
As long as we have a solid relationship with Shen Hao, the Shen family will be completely different. Being rich and powerful is the most basic thing. It is not impossible to become a high-ranking family in the future.
I have heard the old saying that a dove occupies a magpie's nest, but now I feel it is so appropriate. Ha ha ha ha......
Of course, Shen Wentian was in a happy mood, but he didn't know that Mr. Shen, whom he had been thinking about, knew that they were liars from the beginning. The reason why they were still alive was all due to luck. If Shen Hao didn't have his own plan, how would he have made them laugh? ?
...
In fact, Shen Hao would always be in a trance whenever he saw his "cousin" Shen Wanjun and his "cousin" Shen Wanhui. Not to mention others, even he himself felt that these two people really looked a lot like him just from the looks of them. He knew that there was a special massage technique that could slightly change a person's facial features, but he didn't know if this was what these two people used.
After having been in contact with each other for a few days, Shen Hao felt that the other party was really professional, did not reveal any flaws, and did not make any demands. He even declined Shen Hao's offer to give them some money, saying that the family was not short of money. , it was Shen Hao's "uncle" who missed him and asked him to go back and visit when he had time.
Shen Hao naturally agreed, but he had many calculations in his heart.
These swindlers are recorded in detail in Xuan Qingwei's records. Everyone in the family knows it clearly and the details are transparent. In addition, the acting is top-notch. If Shen Hao hadn't been in a special situation, he would have been deceived.
But what about the purpose? What is the purpose of these people?
for money? Or is it simply to rely on his big tree?
Or maybe these people came here with other malicious intentions? For example, those evil monks?
Shen Hao must figure these things out. But you cannot choose ordinary channels to check, otherwise it will be self-defeating.
The next day, Shen Hao asked three special guards to cover him. He got away from everyone's attention and went to Haocheng. In that secret stronghold in Blackwater, he met the flying dragon he had not seen for a long time.
