Chapter 41 Liang Jingyao wants to dress up as a female ghost
After thinking about it, Lin Xiaoyue decided that it would be better to ask clearly first. Although Liang Jingyao was a nice person, it was better to make things clear first to avoid any misunderstandings in the future.
"By the way, Brother Liang, you just said you had something to ask me, what was it?"
Liang Jingyao pointed at the dried radishes drying outside and said, "I think your method of drying them is very good, especially since they don't take up much space after drying. Besides the ones in the cellar, I have a lot more stored, so I'll dry them all?"
Lin Xiaoyue was a little surprised. Why did Brother Liang hide so much? Usually, large amounts of food and fodder were only stored during wars. Was he planning a rebellion?
This idea really scared Lin Xiaoyue!
Her life has finally settled down, and she doesn't want to live in fear anymore!
Lin Xiaoyue held her breath and asked cautiously, "Brother Liang, isn't it better to eat fresh ones? If there's too much, you can just sell it. Why do you have to dry it all?"
Liang Jingyao said calmly, "Master Lin doesn't know that there are many people in my family who need to eat. They are not here. If I transport so much fresh food to them, a lot of it will go bad on the way, so I think it is better to dry it."
Lin Xiaoyue was even more confused. Frowning, she asked, "Then why don't you invite them to live here? Not only can we hunt in the mountains, but we can also grow whatever we want to eat. Life is comfortable, everything tastes delicious, and we can get up whenever we want! Tonight I'm going to dress up as a ghost and scare people. This is a paradise on earth, and no one, not even the emperor, can disturb us!"
Liang Jingyao was thoroughly amused by Lin Xiaoyue's words and quickly stopped her, saying, "There are wild beasts on the mountain. Cheng Feng has martial arts skills to protect himself, so he's fine. But you, a girl, are taking risks. Let me do it tonight."
Lin Xiaoyue couldn't imagine Liang Jingyao dressed as a female ghost. In her mind, shouldn't female ghosts look like Nie Xiaoqian? Suddenly, a strong female ghost appeared. That picture was too interesting!
She couldn't help but ask, "Brother Liang, have you ever dressed up as a female ghost?"
Liang Jingyao shook his head and said, "No, I think Cheng Feng is wearing a mask and white clothes, which is quite simple!"
Lin Xiaoyue felt that if she couldn't pretend, she might as well not pretend. She put away the dishes on the table and said, "I don't think it's that easy. At least you're taller than Cheng Feng, so you can't wear his clothes. I was scared at first last night, and it was too dark, so I didn't see it carefully. I'll wash the dishes first, and then go check out his ghost stuff."
Liang Jingyao took the dishes from her hand and said embarrassedly, "You helped me cook, so I'll wash the dishes. Cheng Feng used to do those ghost costumes by himself, and I don't know how to do them, so I'll trouble Master Lin."
Lin Xiaoyue was itching to see Cheng Feng's things. In fact, with Cheng Feng's tall and slender figure, she could only barely look that scary. The reason why he looked so scary was because of his powerful equipment. She didn't know how he managed to leave red tears, and how he covered his shadow?
"No trouble, no trouble! To be honest, I'm also very curious! Then I'll go look in his room first."
Having said that, she stopped talking and went straight to the room where Cheng Feng lived.
Cheng Feng's room is right next to Liang Jingyao. Maybe it's so close to protect Liang Jingyao's safety?
It was not big inside, with just a bed and a wardrobe. It was much simpler than the west wing where she lived. There was a small living room outside the bedroom in the west wing, and inside the bedroom there were women's dressing table, soft couch, desk, and four treasures of the study... It looked like the place where a lady from a noble family lived.
Lin Xiaoyue walked directly to the wardrobe and opened the door. Inside were the clothes, mask, wig that Cheng Feng had worn last night as a female ghost, as well as several large night pearls!
What is the night pearl used for?
She took them all out and compared them on herself. Cheng Feng was a man, a head taller than her. Men's frames are bigger than women's, so his things were too big for her. It felt like a child wearing adult clothes, but they would be too small for Liang Jingyao.
If Liang Jingyao wore it, it would have to be redone because it would be obvious no matter how it was mended.
There is also this mask. Lin Xiaoyue took it under the sun and looked at it carefully. Sure enough, this mask contains a secret!
The mask maker is quite skilled. Not only is the mask very flexible, it also creates a realistically pale face. Furthermore, inside the mask are two thin tubes, like tear ducts, placed around the eyes and extending slightly beyond the nose. To simulate tears, the face simply contorts into an expression of pain, and the tubes contract to release the fluid.
If people are threatened, they won’t look so carefully. Besides, it’s dark and they will be scared away. Who will care whether the ghost is a person in disguise?
Even if the guess might be false, the fear in my heart has already prevailed, so pretending to be a ghost to scare people is actually a psychological warfare. Fortunately, I held on yesterday, otherwise I would definitely not be here today!
"That's amazing! I can make clothes, but where can I get a set of masks?"
Just as Lin Xiaoyue was talking to herself, Liang Jingyao had already cleaned up the kitchen and walked over.
Seeing Lin Xiaoyue frowning and looking confused, Liang Jingyao asked, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with this mask?"
Lin Xiaoyue sighed and thought to herself, there is indeed a problem. The biggest problem is that I can’t do it!
"Brother Liang, do you know where Cheng Feng got this mask that looks so much like human skin? Look, I put some water in it, and then made some exaggerated expressions on my face, and the water flowed down like tears. It's amazing!"
Liang Jingyao could probably guess it, after all, all the people Cheng Feng could find were his people!
"I know. You want it?"
Lin Xiaoyue nodded repeatedly and looked at Liang Jingyao expectantly: "Is it okay? Just be a normal person, I won't pretend to be a ghost."
Liang Jingyao felt that this was nothing. It was his own people, so it was just a matter of a word.
So he simply agreed to Lin Xiaoyue, "Okay. Your face is only the size of my palm. I'll give it to you when it's done."
Lin Xiaoyue said gratefully, "Thank you, Brother Liang! By the way, this mask may be too small for you. You can try it. If it doesn't work, you'll have to redo it."
Liang Jingyao took the mask and put it directly on his face. Lin Xiaoyue's guess was correct. Liang Jingyao had a difficult time putting on the mask because he was much taller than Cheng Feng and his face was relatively bigger. In the end, he barely managed to stuff his face into the mask, but because the mask was stretched, his facial features all flew up.
The most obvious thing is that the corners of the eyes and mouth are elongated. Liang Jingyao's nose is taller and straighter, so the mask's nose not only cannot fit completely, but also feels like it has collapsed the nose.
The originally tall, sunny and handsome man was suddenly transformed into a ridiculous clown. Lin Xiaoyue could no longer hold back her laughter. "Hahaha! Brother Liang, you should take it off. It really doesn't suit you!"
Liang Jingyao didn't expect that pretending to be a ghost would be so difficult. He threw the mask to the ground and said irritably, "Forget it, I might as well pretend to be a bandit. Isn't Dongyuan Town also in a state of panic because of bandits? Do I look like a bandit if I look fiercer like this?"
