Chapter 417 Human Skin Mask
The news that His Highness has grown taller spread rapidly in Prince Wen's Mansion. Every servant who sees Gu Yuzhi will congratulate him on his growth.

Gu Yuzhi was smiling all day long, and even his dreams at night were sweet.

Early the next morning, Gu Yuzhi had breakfast and set off to Xinliang with Xie Changshi and others.

Two years ago, the official roads were somewhat bare, but now they are all golden at first glance.

He sat on the pony, looking at the scenery, and unknowingly slowed down.

"Xie Changshi, look at the official road, it's really beautiful!"

What was once a small sapling like a branch has grown a lot without realizing it. The breeze blows slowly and the leaves rustle, giving him an indescribable sense of peace.

Xie Changshi stroked his beard and looked at the flat official road and the small trees growing on the official road. He couldn't help but smile on his face: "Yes, it's really beautiful!"

Who would have known that this official road was still overgrown with weeds two years ago, and one had to be careful when walking, for fear that one or two robbers would jump out from the weeds.

"Aspen trees grow quickly. In two or three years, you won't be exposed to the sun when you walk along the official road in the summer."

Although the things in the military camp were engraved in his bones, after all, he had been away from the military camp for so many years, and he still wanted to be familiar with them again.

Before Mr. Huo spoke, Gu Yuzhi raised his right index finger: "I have a good idea!"

As a general who has been fighting with the Beidi people since he was a child, his hatred for the Beidi people is engraved in his bones and blood.

Now he doesn't expect the Beidi people to be afraid and not dare to invade in two or three years.

Gu Yuzhi smiled and said: "Then I will go to the military camp!"

There are still many people in the Mobei Army who know Mr. Huo. Although General Lu is here now, there is no guarantee that someone will cause trouble.

Gu Yuzhi raised his head and glanced at him: "Is that okay?"

He puffed up his face and said, "I don't know where the person Gu Yufan sent before is now. I just hope he didn't find King Beidi Khan."

Xie Changshi and others all looked over: "What's a good idea?"

He clamped the horse's belly and occupied the position on Gu Yuzhi's right: "Your Highness, when we get to Xinliang, I want to go to the military camp and train with him for a while."

But Gu Yufan is dead, so Mr. Huo should be fine, right?

"Mr. Huo will go in as my personal bodyguard. As for his face..."

Gu Yuzhi scratched his head, looking a little embarrassed.

As long as there is a good cotton harvest in September next year, even if the soldiers cannot wear thick coats, they can at least wear a cotton vest.

Speaking of this matter, these people obviously looked very ugly, especially Mr. Huo.

Mr. Huo has been teaching him for more than a year. He should also go into the military camp to experience the military camp life from Mr. Huo's mouth and cooperate with the soldiers of the Mobei Army.

Imagining such a scene, Gu Yu couldn't help but shook his little head, pointed to the wasteland behind the poplar trees and said: "When more cotton seeds are harvested this year, let the prefect of Qi encourage the people of Changzhou to cultivate wasteland here. Plant more cotton.”

Upon hearing this, Guard Zhang came forward with a smile: "Your Highness, I discovered a good thing in Jiangnan this time."

Gu Yuzhi tilted his head and blinked, and suddenly snorted: "Okay, Guard Zhang, you found something good and you didn't tell me immediately!"

He crossed his arms across his chest and puffed up his face into a little bun: "Huh, I'm angry." Guard Zhang took the opportunity to squeeze Xie Changshi away, smiled and apologized: "I'm sorry, Your Highness, I didn't mean it. When I found out, I thought I was talking to His Highness, but His Highness wanted to buy weapons for me, and I forgot about it as soon as I was happy. "

He smiled and took out something as thin as a cicada's wings from his arms: "Your Highness, look at this."

Gu Yuzhi took the thing and felt something strange in his hand: "What is this?"

Mr. Huo on the side noticed it and took a breath: "Human skin mask?"

Guard Zhang nodded: "Yes, human skin mask!"

"Human skin mask?" Gu Yuzhi unfolded it and looked at it, and indeed saw that this thing looked like a mask.

He shook slightly again and repeated: "Human skin mask?"

He seemed taken aback and threw the mask to Guard Zhang: "Is this made of human skin?"

At this moment, Shu Xiaohan and Shopkeeper Wen couldn't help but exclaimed in unison: "Human skin mask?"

Shopkeeper Wen frowned and looked at Shu Xiaohan: "Teacher Shu, what kind of modern thing do you think of? Is it possible that you also have a human skin mask?"

Teacher Shu shook his head like a rattle: "No, no, if people there want to disguise themselves, they don't use human skin masks at all."

All you need is a full face plastic surgery to ensure that even your mother won’t recognize who you are.

She sighed softly: "We have people writing novels there..."

"It's a story book. I always thought that human skin masks only existed in story books."

However, the human skin mask on TV still looks relatively thick, not as thin as the one held by Guard Zhang.

Shopkeeper Wen couldn't help but sigh: "When I was in the previous dynasty, I also heard about human skin masks. At that time, I offered a large reward for buying them, but I have never seen this thing."

He didn't expect that the regrets he had in his previous life would be fulfilled in this life.

Guard Zhang handed over the human skin mask again: "Your Highness, don't worry, this thing is not made of human skin. The reason why it is called a human skin mask is because after a person puts it on, he will become another person, and thousands of people have it." Thousand Faces."

Everyone's skeleton and facial features are different, so the degree of fit of the human skin mask is also different, so naturally each person has a different face.

He scratched his head and said, "I heard that this thing seems to be made of the gum of some kind of tree. This kind of tree can only be found in Lingnan, and there are only a few of them."

This thing was discovered by the prefect of Yangzhou. Combined with the fact that the prefect of Yangzhou had spent some time in Lingnan before, Zhang Shiwei felt that the credibility of this rumor was even higher.

When he heard that it was not made of human skin, Gu Yuzhi took the mask again, turned around and handed it to Mr. Huo, and said with excitement: "Mr. Huo, put it on quickly and let me see if it will really turn into another person." people."

Naturally, Mr. Huo would not refuse. He put it on his face and adjusted it slightly to make the mask fit him better.

Gu Yuzhi just watched without blinking when he saw Mr. Huo's face suddenly changed into another person. He was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped to the ground, so he simply poked him, which was no different from poking someone's face. ah.

His big eyes rolled around: "Mr. Huo, do you feel anything?"

Mr. Huo shook his head: "I just feel something on my face, no other discomfort."

Only then did Gu Yuzhi sigh with emotion: "It turns out there are such magical things in this world!"
