At that time, it was through some subtle details that he discovered her identity.
Zheng Quchi nodded and said, "Yes, please don't darken my skin. The pigment I applied before hasn't completely faded yet. Also, I want to grow taller and stronger, and my face to look more mature..."
“Wait, Madam, these requests are of course no problem, but you changed your face to better fit the identity you will be playing next. Why don’t you just tell Fu Rong what kind of identity and background you plan to have?”
"Hmm... I'd like a young man from an average family, someone low-key but not bad-looking. Ideally, he should look approachable, not someone I'd be afraid of being bullied," she replied sincerely.
Bully?
Fu Rong's expression was strange.
He thought to himself, "You've got the fiercest men in this camp under your command. Who would dare to bully you? Aren't they afraid of death?"
But he only thought this to himself; who would dare to be disrespectful to Zheng Quchi in front of the general?
"Okay, Fu Rong, give it a try first. If you're not satisfied, we can make changes."
"Okay, thank you for your help."
Fu Rong was taken aback, then quickly replied, "You're too kind, Madam."
Fu Rong asked Zheng Quchi to sit down. He first carefully examined her facial features, mentally rehearsed them, and then took action.
He pulled open the outer hem of his coat, revealing at least a dozen deep pockets sewn inside, each containing specially made tools.
His waist ornaments were all containers, used to hold useful materials, as well as sleeve pockets, belts...
Zheng Quchi was astonished to see him rummaging around and pulling out a bunch of things from his body.
She couldn't help but ask, "Do you carry these things with you every day?"
Fu Rong replied matter-of-factly, "How can you not carry your cooking utensils with you? Madam, you carry quite a lot of things with you too."
Zheng Quchi was startled, realizing that Yuwen Sheng was right; his eyesight was indeed incredibly sharp.
She was indeed equipped with a small hammer, a short plane, a line plane, and a chisel...
Some large and heavy tools cannot be carried on one's body, such as saws, drills, and hoists. To equip a carpenter with all these tools would require carrying a load of at least a hundred kilograms on one's body.
She felt it was unnecessary to go through all that trouble; she only carried some of the small tools she was used to, and could borrow the rest from the factory later.
"Madam, please close your eyes, Fu Rong is about to begin."
"good."
Zheng Quchi sat up straight, straightened his back, and then closed his eyes.
She let Fu Rong apply paint and smear on her face for a long time. Only when he finally stopped did she open her eyes slightly.
Is it okay now?
"That's about it. Madam, you can open your eyes now, but please don't touch any part of your face with your hands until it's completely dry."
"I see."
Fu Rong handed over a palm-sized bronze mirror, which Zheng Quchi took and looked at his reflection.
His eyes widened in surprise.
"This...this is amazing!"
She knew about "disguise" before. The exaggerated portrayal in TV dramas made it seem like a myth. She always thought it was just something made up by folks and martial arts circles. But she never expected that such a magical skill really existed in the world.
Looking at herself in the mirror, she exclaimed in surprise, "How did you do that? Can I learn it too?"
Wang Zebang and Wei Yao, who were standing nearby, were amazed by the changes in Zheng Quchi's skills.
It's called makeup, but it's different from regular makeup. Makeup emphasizes the original facial features and minimizes flaws.
But disguise transforms a person into another, drastically altering the human body's facial features; she even changed the length and thickness of her eyebrows.
She had previously thinned and trimmed her stray eyebrows for makeup, but now they are thick and long, like her natural eyebrows.
She carefully plucked it with her hand and found that it really felt fuzzy. Could it be that it was stuck on?
Besides her eyebrows, her eye shape has also changed somewhat, but not too dramatically. She has simply changed from round, narrow puppy eyes to almond-shaped eyes with deeper double eyelid creases.
Her nose appeared longer, her lips thicker, and her round face became slimmer.
In short, at first glance, she looks very different from her original appearance, so different that she doesn't look like a different person.
The soft femininity of her face was greatly altered, which instead highlighted her masculine ruggedness.
As she wished, she transformed into a handsome young man, but the combination of such an ambitious young man and her short stature was quite incongruous.
"Imagine a twenty-year-old man who's as short as me, isn't that a bit too tragic?" She put down the bronze mirror and sighed deeply.
Seeing that she was dissatisfied with her height, Fu Rong said, "It is naturally impossible for Madam to be as tall as the General, but it is possible to be slightly taller than her current height."
"Really?" Her eyes lit up.
"General, Madam, please wait a moment. Fu Rong will be right back."
Fu Rong went out and returned shortly afterward, carrying a pair of boots and a set of clothes.
He handed the items to Zheng Quchi: "Madam, could you try changing them?"
Zheng Quchi took it and then looked at Yuwen Sheng.
Yuwen Sheng stared at her for a moment with his eyes beneath his eyelashes, then waved his hand: "You all go out first."
"yes."
The three men exited the main military tent in turn.
After everyone left, Yuwen Sheng turned his back and said, "Go behind the screen and change."
Okay.
