I, the wanderer of the universe, love making friends

Chapter 81: A Disguised Impersonator

Although Duan Zhengchun was only fifteen or sixteen years old, he was already a playboy.

As the grandson of Duan Silian, he has been living a life of luxury since childhood and has no pressure in life. In addition, he is tall and handsome, heroic, rich, powerful, capable and romantic. Few women can resist such a man.

He is a poison in the love field, the prince in a girl's dream, and the ideal lover of a young woman.

Although he is promiscuous and has many lovers, falling in love with every one he meets, he is by no means fickle and unfaithful. When he is alone with a lover, he truly loves her sincerely.

So this afternoon, he was preparing to meet a girl.

In order to prevent being talked about, he specifically ordered his guards not to follow him.

Just as he was about to reach the place where he had agreed to meet the girl, a voice suddenly came into Duan Zhengchun's ears like a ghost: "You are finally here..."

This sudden noise gave Duan Zhengchun a sudden shock. He couldn't help but wonder, could it be that Brother Wang knew about my whereabouts and sent someone to look for me? Or was it Brother Wang himself who came here?

Thinking of this, he looked around frantically, asking anxiously, "Who? Is it Brother Wang?"

However, the only response he got was a calm, almost cold voice: "Brother Wang? Duan Zhengming?"

This indifferent tone echoed in the air, and there was no other sound around except the sound of the wind and the rustling of the long grass.

Duan Zhengchun opened his eyes wide, trying hard to find the source of the sound, but no matter how hard he searched, he could only see the long grass around him swaying in the breeze.

Just when he was full of doubts, he suddenly discovered that a white figure had appeared under a big tree about four or five meters ahead.

He was a man who looked not very old. He was wearing an ordinary white gown without any fancy decorations.

However, even such a simple dress could not conceal his innate noble temperament.

This noble aura seemed to be natural, and compared with Duan Zhengchun, a prince, it was a world of difference, which made Duan Zhengchun feel ashamed.

Who is this mysterious man?
How did he get here?
Countless questions suddenly emerged in Duan Zhengchun's mind.

Although he knew that his martial arts skills might not be as strong as his brother Duan Zhengming's, he was still capable enough to protect himself.

But facing this person of unknown origin in front of him, he was completely unaware of how the other person appeared, as if this person had appeared out of thin air.

After a brief silence, Duan Zhengchun composed himself, clasped his hands together, bowed respectfully, and said, "Brother, I am Duan Zhengchun of Dali. I am honored to be here. May I ask, were you speaking to me just now?"

Shen Lang smiled slightly and said, "There are only two of us here, so I am naturally talking to you."

"May I ask your name, sir?" Duan Zhengchun smiled. "I always enjoy socializing with friends in the martial arts world. If you don't mind, why don't we find a place and have a drink together?"

Although the Duan family came to power in Dali as a martial arts family from the Central Plains, they have retained their ancestral traditions for hundreds of years.

Even though Duan Zhengchun was extremely wealthy and powerful, he still often traveled incognito. When he encountered people from the martial arts world who came to visit him or seek revenge, he always treated them according to the rules of the martial arts world and never acted like a prince.

"Okay." Shen Lang responded.

His body was like a gust of wind, and the figure several feet away suddenly appeared in front of Duan Zhengchun.

Duan Zhengchun was about to speak when the other party raised his hand and slapped him. The powerful palm force made Duan Zhengchun's blood rush straight to his chest.

Wow.

He opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood, then fell limply to the ground.

Several people walked out from the darkness.

One of them was dressed in white and the other in palace attire.

"Is this person Duan Zhengchun?"

Li Qiushui flicked Duan Zhengchun's face with her toes and asked casually.

Shen Lang nodded. "Yes, he is Duan Zhengchun, a descendant of the Duan family. I calculated that although he and his brother are temporarily away from the throne, he carries a dragon aura and will definitely become the emperor of Dali in the future."

Li Canghai couldn't help but chuckle and said, "So my husband also knows the art of reading qi. However, if we change his appearance gradually, the progress will be very slow, and it might even arouse the suspicion of the Duan family. I think it would be better if we find an opportunity to enter his mansion and burn his appearance."

"I think this method is feasible." Li Qiushui nodded. "Even if the Dali Duan family is extremely skilled in martial arts, they may not be able to find a solution. Then, my husband, you can appear as a medical expert and openly change his appearance. No one will suspect anything."

It is very normal to travel around the world by disguising oneself. Some people use a mask, some use strange medicine, and some use internal skills to change, and then use hairstyle, voice, eyes, movements, props, etc. to pretend to be another person.

Many masters in the martial arts world are proficient in this method and use it extensively when traveling in the world.

Wang Lianhua is an expert at making human skin masks, but the mask-making process is complicated.

There is also the use of drugs to change one's appearance, which also takes a long time.

The most thorough method is surgical disguise, which can completely change a person's appearance and is far superior to the above methods.

However, no matter how good the disguise is, it will reveal flaws in front of close friends and relatives. There are too many details and habits, and even the slightest abnormality will arouse suspicion. After unraveling the mystery and following the clues, the truth will be revealed.

Therefore, Li Qiushui and Li Canghai's idea was very good. It would not arouse the suspicion of the Duan family, and it could also achieve the effect of making the fake look real.

Shen Lang nodded: "I think so too. When he wakes up later, we will go back with him."

I don’t know how long it took.

When Duan Zhengchun woke up, he had no strength in his limbs, as if someone had pressed an acupoint, but the feeling was completely different from being pressed an acupoint.

Moreover, his head was still a little dizzy, and he couldn't help but be horrified: "Who is that person? Why did he knock me out?"

He opened his eyes and looked around, and found that he was still in the place where he was knocked unconscious.

But it was getting dark.

Duan Zhengchun's mind raced, but he couldn't figure it out.

After he regained his strength, he hurriedly checked his body and found that all his money was missing.

A thought flashed through his mind: Could it be that the other party came for money? After experiencing such a strange change, his originally restless heart, which had been wanting to go around looking for women, suddenly cooled down.

He looked up at the sky and saw that it was already late at night. He knew it was not appropriate to stay outside any longer, so he got up in a hurry and headed towards his residence.

That night.

A raging fire suddenly broke out in the backyard of the palace. The fire was so fierce that it lit up half of the sky in an instant.

The blazing flames were like a snarling fire dragon, devouring everything around it wantonly.

For a moment, the entire palace was in chaos.

People were shouting and running in panic, and the sound of chaos was endless.

Thick smoke billowed out, choking everyone and causing them to cough and cry.

The guards in the palace rushed to the fire scene with buckets of water, trying to put out the sudden fire.

When Duan Zhengming rushed into the fire to rescue Duan Zhengchun, he found that Duan Zhengchun's face had suffered serious burns.

Duan Zhengming's heart sank to the bottom.

He knew that his brother had always been a playboy. If he lost his face, how could he face people?

Find someone to help with treatment overnight.

Although the Duan family had many royal masters, many imperial doctors in the palace, and a variety of rare medicines, after three or four months, Duan Zhengchun still could not be seen by the public.

He is neither human nor ghost.

It also made Duan Zhengchun's temper become a little weird.

In desperation, Duan Zhengming had to summon medical experts from all over the world.

There were many applicants at the time, but after listening to their descriptions, Duan Zhengming drove them away.

Because their plan was not even as good as that of the imperial physicians.

this day.

After checking Duan Zhengchun's injuries and walking out of the ward, Duan Zhengming couldn't help but sigh.

I am afraid that my brother will only be able to meet people with an ugly appearance in the future.

Suddenly, a subordinate came hurriedly with a happy look on his face and said, "Your Highness, there is an old man outside who claims to be the Li Guishou who has changed his appearance. He said he has a way to restore the Second Prince's face."

"Really? I'll go and take a look." Duan Zhengming thought about it. He had never heard of any fake hand. Although he didn't hold any hope, he still went to see him.

When I arrived at the hall, I saw an old man with white hair and beard.

Duan Zhengming saluted according to the custom of the martial arts world. "I heard that you came here to take care of my brother's injury. Duan Zhengming is here to pay his respects."

"Your Highness, you are welcome." Li Guishou nodded and smiled. "I have been traveling all over the world and originally wanted to go to Dali Mountain to look for medicine. I learned that the young prince had suffered a burn, so I came here."

Duan Zhengming casually asked, "My brother's face was indeed seriously injured. I wonder how Senior Li Guishou will treat it?"

Li Guishou said, "Just put the poisonous insect in through the nose, then use medicine to guide it, let the insect feed on the facial bones. After cutting the bones, cut the face open, use golden needles to sew it up, and after three days, you will achieve the effect of changing your appearance."

"Oh?" Duan Zhengming became interested. "Senior, are you sure?"

"If I wasn't sure, I wouldn't come here."

"In that case, please help me, Senior." Duan Zhengming said hurriedly, "If you can restore my brother's appearance to a presentable state, Duan Zhengming will definitely reward you handsomely."

Li Guishou followed Duan Zhengming into the inner room.

After carefully examining Duan Zhengchun, he said, "Prince Duan, to be honest, the young prince's injuries are indeed very serious."

Duan Zhengming asked, "Senior Li, do you have any ideas?"

"Yes, but it's impossible to restore your previous appearance." Li Guishou said, "The only way now is to change your face and meet people with a new identity."

After careful consideration, Duan Zhengming felt that changing his face would be better than this half-human, half-ghost appearance, so he said, "Senior, please help me."

"Let's get started today without further delay," Li Guishou said. "I still have to go to Dali Mountain to collect herbs, so I really can't delay any longer."

……

Five days later.

Duan Zhengchun has changed into a brand new face.

He looked at the face in the bronze mirror and was very satisfied. Although it was not his original face, it was more handsome than before he was injured.

Then he put down the bronze mirror and strode out of the room.

Together with Duan Zhengming, he expressed his sincere gratitude to Li Guishou who came to treat him.

Li Gui left the palace with a thank-you gift and went straight to a pleasure boat on the Erhe River outside Dali City.

Someone was already waiting for him on the pleasure boat.

He rubbed his hands gently on his face and changed his appearance again.

This face is exactly Shen Lang!
Li Qiushui smiled and said, "It seems that our first step of the plan has been successful. Duan Zhengchun is now my husband's stand-in. Next, we need to find an opportunity to replace the stand-in with you."

"Plus, the people sent by the Vulture Palace have all had their appearances changed to resemble ours. We just need to use fakes to pass them off as real and have them carry out our plan..."

"Then you don't have to participate in person. You can just sit behind the scenes and easily complete the plan and steal the Dali Kingdom."
