On the other side, Lu Zhengjun's legs have fully recovered.
Not only can he run and jump, but he has also regained his former agility.
He usually has to put on an act in the military, but he doesn't when he's out in public, like at the gym, sparring with his brothers-in-law.
That day, after Lu Zhengjun and Qiao Shouyan finished their practice, they lay down directly on the arena.
"worn out……"
That's enough for today!
Only heavy breathing could be heard.
Both of them were drenched in sweat; the fight they had just had was incredibly exciting.
Qiao Shouyan had sparred with Lu Zhengjun once before, when Lu Zhengjun was still alive and wanted to experience the prowess of the King of Soldiers.
"I think your skills have returned to normal, at least 80 or 90% of what they were before you were injured," Qiao Shouyan said after calming his breathing. He remained lying on the ground, not wanting to move at all.
"Pretty much, but I feel it can be even stronger," Lu Zhengjun said.
After all, he was nourished by the spiritual spring every day, and with his cultivation, he felt his body was lighter. He just needed time to adjust and adapt to this feeling of lightness, and then his skills would definitely improve further.
“Actually, you’re much stronger than before,” Lu Zhengjun said.
Qiao Shouyan knew this in his heart; he too had benefited from the nourishment of the spiritual spring.
However, compared to Lu Zhengjun, there is still a certain gap!
But Qiao Shouyan is already very capable now; however, it's impossible for everyone in the military to be like Lu Zhengjun.
"Wow—you two are practicing again?" Qiao Gaoyang shook his head as he came in and saw the two of them exhausted and collapsed on the ring.
He didn't understand that they had been training every day—to be precise, ever since Lu Zhengjun recovered, it had been Qiao Shouyan who was being unilaterally tortured.
Only in the very early stages of his rehabilitation did Qiao Shouyan have the opportunity to torment Lu Zhengjun.
"Lord Zheng, it's so wonderful to have you!" Qiao Gaoyang expressed his heartfelt gratitude for his appearance.
Previously, Qiao Gaoyang would accompany Qiao Shouyan in training, but Qiao Gaoyang wasn't that good at it; he mainly relied on his brain, which made things very difficult for him.
Since Lu Zhengjun came along, Qiao Gaoyang has been "retired"!
"Is it really necessary?" Lu Zhengjun laughed.
“He was just scared of me,” Qiao Shouyan said.
"Then aren't you getting beaten up by the Emperor right now?" Qiao Gaoyang said rudely.
"What do you know?" Qiao Shouyan was too lazy to argue with him.
That's called having ambition! That's called pursuing a stronger path!
Qiao Gaoyang would never understand.
Despite their bickering, Qiao Gaoyang reminded them that lying down for a bit was enough and they should go take a shower.
"If you get sick again because of this, let's see how Yueya teaches you a lesson!" Qiao Gaoyang said gloatingly.
Last time, they both got sick because they were paralyzed for too long and didn't keep warm after their sweat dried. Although it wasn't serious, Su Yueya still scolded them.
Lu Zhengjun almost lost her right to sleep in the bedroom.
So when Qiao Gaoyang said that, Lu Zhengjun immediately got up.
Su Yueya was browsing the small shopping mall at the moment. There were many novel things on the second floor. She was used to coming here to browse when she had nothing to do, as a way to broaden her horizons.
Occasionally, when you encounter special circumstances, you can discover the novelties here and whether they can be put to use.
"Huh, what's this?"
Su Yueya arrived at a booth and found that what it displayed was very special: a box and a mask—not a strangely shaped mask, but a mask that looked exactly like a human face. The name on the mask was: Human Skin Mask.
Human skin mask?
This thing sounds and looks very powerful, but ordinary people have no use for it. Who wants to wear a human skin mask all the time...
No, someone can wear it!
Su Yueya immediately had an idea. She was worried about how to quickly heal the scars on Lu Zhengjun's face without letting others question the speed of his recovery. This human skin mask was a very good shield and worth a try.
She quickly began reading the instruction manual and held the displayed human skin mask in her hand to feel it.
Yes, the material is very realistic, with a soft touch, basically the same as human skin. And according to the instructions, the color of this human skin mask can be adjusted, and the skin tone can be customized according to the person being imitated.
"I'll buy it and study it." With that, Su Yueya took the small box and instruction manual and went straight to the first floor to pay for Momo's purchase.
Let's try it out on Lu Zhengjun in the space first, and then decide how to implement it.
"Honey, come here quickly!" Su Yueya was studying.
After Lu Zhengjun finished taking a bath and changed into clean clothes, he came out and saw a small box that he had never seen before in front of Su Yueya, who was reading the instruction manual.
"Bought from a small shop? What is this?" he asked, sitting down on the edge of the bed.
"Human skin mask".
"A human skin mask?" Lu Zhengjun wondered, the tools and materials in the box did look strange. "What did you buy this for?"
It doesn't seem very useful; at least, they don't use this thing in their daily lives.
“Honey, I think you can use this human skin mask. That way, even if the skin on your face is completely healed, no one will suspect anything,” Su Yueya said, her eyes shining.
"I'll use it?"
“Yes!” Su Yueya nodded and explained, “Think about it, if you wear a human skin mask to the army, and someone asks you why you don’t have any scars on your face, you can just say you’re wearing a mask. Isn’t that reasonable?”
"As for when your real skin healed under the mask, as long as you have the mask as an excuse, can't you just hide it?"
A perfect solution.
By using a human skin mask and a real face, the effect is so realistic that no one can tell whether Lu Zhengjun is wearing a mask or has completely healed her scars.
"But can the quality and effect of this mask really reach the level of being indistinguishable from the real thing?" Lu Zhengjun had some doubts.
“I’m not entirely sure either, so shall we give it a try first?” Su Yueya suggested.
“Okay.” Lu Zhengjun nodded in agreement.
Su Yueya had already read through the instructions and roughly remembered the process of making the mask. All she needed to do next was follow the steps one by one.
Simply put, this human skin mask is divided into two parts.
First, a mold needs to be made for the wearer, which is based on the wearer's face shape. This ensures that the final skin mask can be worn securely and comfortably on the wearer's face.
"Honey, don't move around. Close your eyes first, then open them as I instruct you," Su Yueya said.
“Okay.” Lu Zhengjun obediently cooperated, letting Su Yueya do as she pleased.
After the first layer of the mold is made, the next step is the second layer of human skin, which is the "appearance" that will ultimately be shown to others.
If someone wants to impersonate someone, their skin will be made to resemble that person. However, Lu Zhengjun's main purpose was to cover up his scars, so his skin still resembled his own skin, just the skin of someone who didn't have scars.
