withered prosperity

Yan Hai took out a small jade box from his bag.

The square box is only bigger than a palm, and it is divided into two layers after opening, each layer has a number of grids, some contain smaller bottles, and some directly contain powders of various colors.

After taking out two layers, at the bottom of the jade box, Yan Hai used his fingers to take out a thin piece.

That thing looks like fish jelly in texture, but it is light and smooth, and it is as transparent and crystal clear as frozen ice.

"What do you want to change into?" Yan Hai was holding the thing, but he was a little embarrassed.

"It's up to you." Yun Ji sat at the table, closed his eyes and raised his head slightly, as if he was at his mercy.

Yan Hai hesitated for a while, reaching out several times to touch Yun Ji's face, but retracted halfway.

He really didn't know what to change Yun Ji into.

Yun Ji didn't rush him, but waited patiently without even opening his eyes.

Yan Hai stared blankly at his face, feeling that this man was born perfectly from the sideburns and brows to the tip of nose and chin, and everything was in line with his own wishes.

After watching for a long time, he didn't come back to his senses until Yun Ji laughed.

"What?" Yun Ji opened his eyes and said to him, "Even though no one has seen what I look like under this mask, don't make me too ugly."

Those eyes were deep and clear, and when viewed in the sunlight, there was actually a hint of dark green in them.

As if bewitched, Yan Hai stretched out his hand and pressed it against his cheek, and gently stroked the corner of his eye with his fingertips.

"Have you thought about it?" Yun Ji asked him. "Better looking?"

He nodded.

The thing as thin as a cicada's wing and as translucent as ice was pressed onto Yun Ji's face by Yan Hai. The moment he touched it, the thing seemed to be fused to the skin, or even penetrated into the skin. Average.

This feeling was very strange, although Yun Ji didn't panic, he was also taken aback.

"It's okay, this is not a living thing, it's just the shell slough of a strange beast in the deep sea." Yan Hai comforted him.

"Can I touch it?"

"can."

Yun Ji touched his face with his hands, and felt that the tentacles were no different from usual, and couldn't help but feel very miraculous.

Yan Hai dug some powder from the jade box with a small spoon, took several vials, poured out some liquids respectively, put them together in a saucer and mixed them thoroughly, and finally took a tool with a strange shape to mix them The good things were applied to Yunji's face little by little.

Soon, he completed these seemingly complicated steps.

"Okay?" Yun Ji noticed his retreat, opened his eyes and asked, "So fast?"

Yan Hai took a step back.

"Yes." Then he turned around and went to clean up the things on the table. "I just modified it at will."

Yun Ji stood up and walked to his side.

Yan Hai suddenly became flustered and almost knocked over the jade box next to his hand to the ground.

Yun Ji stretched out his hand from the side, held the jade box firmly, and pushed it back onto the table.

"Thank you." Yan Hai lowered his head and put the jade box in his hands, not knowing what to put in first.

As far as Yun Ji could see, he saw several pieces of things similar to his own face stacked on the bottom of the jade box, but one of them was very different.

That piece should be at the bottom, but because it is transparent, it can be seen clearly. There is a crack on the top, and some silver-blue pieces are inlaid around the crack...

Yan Hai tidied up messily, but stopped suddenly.

"That, otherwise we will modify it a little..." He said to Yunji: "It's because I didn't think carefully, it's too eye-catching to go out like this."

"Oh?" Yun Ji touched his face: "A sideways look?"

The strange face was clearly revealed in the mirror, it was a face completely different from his original appearance.

The person in the mirror looked about [-] years old. Compared with Yun Ji's original stern and beautiful appearance, the outline of this face looked younger and softer.

The contours of the eyes have completely changed, becoming wider and rounder, with a very natural blush at the corners of the eyes, which immediately removed the cold and stern aura.The bridge of the nose is still straight, but the tip of the nose has also been modified a little, and it looks extremely harmonious with the lips that have added a little thickness.

In fact, if you look closely, there are still some similarities, such as pale complexion and deep eyebrows, but they are much more delicate than his original appearance, so delicate that he is almost indistinguishable, not even like a real person in this world.

"It's a bit strange to look at." Yun Ji said to Yan Hai reflected in the mirror: "Is there really such a person in this world?"

"I was just confused for a while." Yan Hai tightly grasped the weird tool in his hand, as if he wanted to rush forward to modify his face again. "If it's too eye-catching, I'm afraid it's not good."

Yun Ji turned around.

"Really?" He turned his head and looked at Yan Hai with a half-smile, "I think this is the look you would like!"

Yan Hai looked a little uncomfortable.

"No, I don't like this look." But he still said solemnly: "It's just that you told me just now that you should look better. I'm confused and over-modified."

So, although you don't like this appearance, you think this face is very beautiful.

Doesn't this sentence sound strange?

Yun Ji didn't say these words.

He just sat back on the chair and asked Yan Hai to make further revisions.

Yan Hai was visibly relieved.

He was much more careful this time.

By the time it was fully completed, the sun had already set in the west.

"What a coincidence." Yun Ji smiled after looking in the mirror again: "This appearance is quite similar to the original 'Xiao'."

With clear eyebrows and clear eyes, he is a handsome foreign youth.

"Is there really such a person?"

"Of course there are." Yun Ji glanced at the long sword that was put aside: "This is what he lost to me in the sword competition back then."

Yan Hai understood it, a swordsman lost all his swords, obviously he is no longer in this world.

"But it seems to be far from the 'good-looking' you like." Yun Ji looked at the mirror again and asked him: "Is it very ordinary?"

"No." Yan Hai shook his head: "I know it's you, so I think it looks good no matter how you look at it."

"I didn't know you were so good at coaxing people. No wonder Jingchan asked someone to come to me to propose marriage." He finally sighed vaguely: "It's a pity..."

It's a pity that I don't know if it's a pity that Jingchan likes him, or he doesn't like Jingchan, or something else.

Yan Hai felt that from last night to now, Yun Ji's words and deeds were all weird.

He touched his neck unconsciously.

Although I have never discovered that my blood will affect ordinary people, but... I always feel uneasy.

"We didn't even have lunch today, so we were kicked out by Murong Ji." Yun Ji asked him, "Are you hungry? I'm a little hungry."

"I'll get someone to bring it..."

"I remember you said last night that you will cook yourself." Yun Ji reminded him.

"I'll go right away, what do you want to eat?" Yan Hai said hastily.

"It's all good." Yun Ji smiled and said to him, "I'll eat whatever you eat."

Yan Hai nodded quickly, walked out of the room quickly, and went down to the kitchen.

After Yan Hai left, Yun Ji put away the smile on his face.

He touched his face, twirled his fingers, and recalled the feeling of touching Yan Hai's cheek before.

Immediately afterwards, he swung his hand back, hitting the window lattice with vigor, and the half-closed window behind him opened.

"Pavilion Master." A voice came from outside the window.

"Send an order to find out where 'Qianlian Palace' is and who 'Yue Cuiwei' is. I want to know any news about anyone in this place." He paused, then said: "In addition, I will Draw a portrait, and check the identity of the person in the portrait, the more detailed the better."
