Chapter 355: Chapter 356: About Face_1

Having been at Spikenard Square for so long, she’d actually become capable enough to manage things on her own. Had it not been the case, Nan Feng wouldn’t have entrusted her with managing the shop alone.

The horse cart had a curtain at the front. As Yetu was driving, Nan Feng lifted the curtain to look at him, turning from a mature and experienced owner into a curious girl within moments.

"Don’t you feel uncomfortable wearing this mask every day?"

"I’ve gotten used to it."

"I honestly can’t tell that this face isn’t yours at all. Who is the master of disguise you spoke of who is very skilled?"

"He’s a man of the Jianghu, his last name is Dao, he comes and goes like a ghost, this man is hard to find," Yetu explained.

"Then how did you find him?" Nan Feng started to become curious about things relating to the Jianghu.

"It’s a bit terrifying, are you sure you want to hear?" asked Yetu.

He had always refrained from discussing this matter to avoid spoiling the mood. After all, everytime he revealed his true face, it was only when he was alone with Nan Feng.

Nan Feng’s curiosity was piqued. "Let’s hear it. I have experienced even more terrifying things. Afraid of this? Besides, we have such a long way back to Daping Village. Not chatting would be boring."

Nan Feng referred to the event of time traveling.

"Alright," Yetu continued to drive, his voice low and husky, "This man’s last name is Dao. People of Jianghu call him ’True Through False Sir’. He specializes in creating face masks. Do you know where he gets the cast for the faces?"

"From... another person’s face?" Nan Feng asked.

She had seen such scenes in movies, hence the guess was not difficult for her.

"Not from the face of a living person, but from a dead person," Yetu replied in a light tone.

Nan Feng shivered, "Dead person? Then this face... on you is also...?"

She suddenly found it eerie.

Yetu turned to look at Nan Feng and smiled, "It should be, but when exactly the person died and where he was from, I have no idea. I just thought it was extremely ugly back then and chose it. If I had known I would meet you, I wouldn’t have chosen this one, even if it meant choosing a more mediocre looking one."

Nan Feng simply sat next to Yetu and helped him drive the horse cart. Subsequently, she touched his face and felt that it was still warm, just slightly colder than the normal body temperature.

Nan Feng incredulously said, "You’re right. If you hadn’t admitted it yourself, no one would suspect that this face of yours is a fake. You mentioned just now that he is hard to find, how did you find him eventually?"

"He doesn’t take up everyone’s request; one must present a gift to him. Only if the gift suits his mood at the moment would he accept it. Many people in Jianghu look for him, but not many can present a gift that pleases him."

The horse cart had already left the county town and was heading towards Qingshui Town. Yetu’s horse-driving skills were first-rate.

"What did you offer him?" Nan Feng was curious.

"A family heirloom," This matter seemed to stir up tragic memories for Yetu, as his expression instantly turned gloomy. Feeling his pain, Nan Feng held onto him, "That’s okay. I won’t ask any further."

"Hm," Yetu’s response was faint, as if he accepted it.

Nan Feng recalled the painting and its signature. She hesitated for a moment, but still asked, "Yetu, who is Nini?"

Maybe because this question touched a nerve of Yetu’s, he didn’t respond for quite a while.

Nan Feng quickly hugged him from behind, "Never mind, if you don’t want to answer, you don’t have to."
