Whether it's changing my face or dressing up, it's all a woman's world. I'm just a passer-by who stole some valuable experience from this world. Even though these things aren't a real disguise, they're definitely the foundation of my disguise studies. [Quotes from the Dragon Army's God of Disguise, Mr. Thousand Face.]
Tang Ling should have believed the quote.
When Ro Xin took out a lot of things that looked like a color palette, all kinds of brushes, pens, red tubes, and bottles of various sizes, he should have believed her.
Other than believing her, he should have begged her to show mercy.
Unfortunately, Tang Ling did not have such knowledge, so when he saw his reflection in the mirror with his watery blue eyes, supple red lips, and rosy cheeks, he was shocked.
"Perfect." Ro Xin was very satisfied with her work. She pinched Tang Ling's face and sized it up while commenting on it.
"Hmm, the shadow is not bad. If you hit him harder, his eyes will look deeper and his nose will look sharper."
"Don't move. These contact lenses are antiques left behind by the old civilization. Do you know how lucky I was to get them? If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have dyed them blue. Do you know how beautiful the original gray is? "
"Hmm, this lip color might not be the precious lipstick from the old civilization, but it's a natural color that I mixed myself. Gosh, if only I was born in the old civilization. I would have become a legend in the makeup industry. "
"Hmm, not bad! You already have a delicate face, and with a little makeup, you look even more delicate and pleasant. "
Delicate? Pleasant? Tang Ling's fists on his thighs were clenched so tightly that they were shaking. He barely managed to control his hands so that he would not impulsively kill his reflection in the mirror.
"Are you not satisfied?" Ro Xin was upset. She believed that Tang Ling's reflection was her masterpiece.
How beautiful he was! His natural blonde hair might be a little pale, but his cheeks were naturally red. Plus, the faint red was the closest to his real lip color. The contact lenses and the shadow made his eyes bigger, his nose sharper, and his chin sharper.
On top of that, he used nude makeup, so no one could tell that he had makeup on.
How beautiful! How successful!
"Thank you. Please fix my face back to normal." The veins on Tang Ling's forehead were popping.
"What are you doing? Why don't you respect the fruits of my labor? Your own face? Do you have a death wish? "Ro Xin was hurt.
"Yeah, I'd rather give up my life than live with such a face." Tang Ling really had the urge to beat himself to death.
"I'm not. If you don't like this, you can do it yourself …" She pouted angrily as she shoved everything on the table into the drawer and rejected him.
But before she could finish, a loud bang came from the door.
A stern voice echoed in Ro Xin's room. "Ro Xin, you are too much! You casually brought people into the camp and even brought them back to your own house? "
"Yes, it's a man." Ro Li was still brooding over this matter. For some reason, his tone seemed to be a little 'bullsh * t'.
The sudden turn of events shocked both of them. Both of them turned to the door at the same time.
A black-haired, black-eyed man with a mustache who was as tall and sturdy as Ro Li appeared in the room.
Behind him was naturally Ro Li.
"Huh? Are you Dumby? Does Dumby look like this? " Ro Li was shocked. He rubbed his eyes and said seriously to the middle-aged man, "Dad, I'm sorry. I might have misunderstood my sister."
"Mm-hmm." The middle-aged man nodded in agreement and glared at Ro Li. "Report to me after you see if it's a man or a woman."
"Yes, Dad!" Ro Li turned to Tang Ling and said with a smile, "I'm sorry, Dumby. Erm, Miss Dumby. Tell me, why did a girl like you name herself Dumby? Isn't it nice to have long hair? "
"Hmm, don't be shy when you come to the camp. You must eat more meat. Look at you. You're so skinny and your body is straight. People might mistake you for a boy. "
"Miss Dumby, let me introduce myself. My name is Ro Li, and I …"
Ro Li was talking to himself. Ro Xin's expression turned weird. She looked at Tang Ling worriedly and realized the veins on his forehead and neck were throbbing.
In the next second, Tang Ling jumped up and dashed towards Ro Li with unbelievable speed.
Then, he punched Ro Li's face, causing his nose to bleed. No one noticed that the blood from Ro Li's nose splashed on Tang Ling, soaking his thin coat and landing on the Horror Lullaby that Tang Ling kept close to his body.
Tang Ling punched Ro Li like a madman while he scolded, "Who the f * ck wants to know your name? What kind of nonsense are you spouting in front of me? "
The middle-aged man could not help but look away. Did his son's passion anger the little girl? Although the little girl's voice sounded a little rough …
Isn't she a little too powerful? Hmm, does being powerful have anything to do with having a rough voice?
Still, it did not matter. He liked such a powerful daughter-in-law. Her father had already started to plan for the long term!
Ro Li covered his head with his hand. It was embarrassing, but he could not fight back at all. Oh right, my father always says that women need to be coaxed, so I should coax her now.
"Chicken, you're so beautiful!" Ro Li was slurring his words, but he still managed to say it in a hoarse voice.
This violent Dumbo will be touched, won't he?
As expected, Tang Ling stopped punching Ro Li and looked at him with a strange expression. "What did you say? What chicken? "
"I … Ahem … I'm not talking about the chicken. It's because … because you're too beautiful! You hit me too hard just now, so I didn't make myself clear, "Ro Li said with a flattering smile.
"Beautiful your * ss!" Tang Ling was enraged. He pointed at Ro Li's face and punched him seven to eight times.
Ro Xin could not stand it anymore, so she shouted, "Tang Ling, are you done?!"
Tang Ling?!
Ro Xin's expression changed, but it was too late.
Tang Ling, on the other hand, stood up and wiped his face with his sleeves, wiping away most of the messy makeup. He said nonchalantly, "Nice to meet you guys. I'm Tang Ling, not Dumby."
"I met Ro Xin when she was picking herbs. She was in danger back then, so I helped her. However, she doesn't owe me anything since she saved me because I was poisoned.
"Ro Xin wanted to cure me of the poison, so she brought me back to the camp. That's how it is. If I cause you any trouble, I'll leave right away. "
"Tang Ling." Ro Xin did not expect Tang Ling to tell the truth, so she panicked. She almost sprinted to Tang Ling and stood in front of him. She looked at the middle-aged man with a pleading gaze. "Dad …"
She could not say a word. She could neither act coquettishly nor come up with an excuse.
Her father must have heard about Tang Ling. He was not a leader who did not care about worldly affairs.
Ro Xin knew how big of a mess she had caused. If the truth was exposed, it would bring disaster to the camp.
Ro Li's head was swollen from the punches. He stood up and said, "A man can distinguish between kindness and grudges. You can do it, but even so, he can't stay in your room. "
It seemed like Ro Li still did not know how serious the situation was. He was an idiot.
The middle-aged man went silent. His gaze was unprecedentedly complicated. The name Tang Ling stirred a thousand ripples in his heart.
"Finally, we meet again?" He unconsciously glanced at Ro Li, who was dumbfounded beside him.
It was then that a voice came from outside the door. "Chief, the chief captain and the second and third captains have something urgent to discuss with you. It's about the young mistress."
"Okay, I got it. Tell them I'll be there in five minutes, "said Ro Xin's father.
He then turned to Ro Xin and said, "Make Tang Ling look normal. Keep his yellow hair and blue eyes, but don't let anyone see his real face. "
"Wait. If I call you, bring him here. Call him Dumbo. You can make up your own stories about his background.
Ro Li, you stay with me. Don't say anything. Just say that you angered me today and I beat you up. You'll be muted as punishment. "
"Why? Dad? Why is it my fault? "Ro Li was reluctant, but he shut up when his father glared at him.
He had never seen his father so serious and complicated, so he dared not argue.
"Dad, Tang Ling …" Ro Xin said worriedly. If her father became serious, she would not be able to resist him.
However, she did not want to ignore Tang Ling's injuries and break her promise.
"We'll talk about it after we solve the problem at hand." Ro Xin's father took a deep look at his daughter. His gaze showed a trace of complicated emotions and confusion towards fate.
After that, he turned around and left, leaving the anxious Ro Xin and the confused Tang Ling behind.
Ro Xin's father's attitude was strange.
**
Ro Yan.
He was the leader of the Ro Drifter Camp.
Ever since the Drifter Camp was built, it had always been led by the Ro family.
Or it could be said that it was originally created by the Luo clan.
In the beginning, it was not a Drifter Camp. The ancestors of the Ro family decided to enter the Herrocky Mountain Ridge in order to protect their family.
The most frustrating thing about history was that it could not be changed.
At first, it was just for their family, but the ancestors did not want to abandon their friends, so when they entered the Herrocky Mountain Ridge, they brought along four of the ancestors' comrades.
Then, the story went on for a long time.
In short, from the start of the Ro Drifter Camp's development until now, the Ro family was the leader of the camp and always took the lead in facing all kinds of dangers.
As a result, he was the only one left in the Ro Drifter Camp.
His grandfather died in battle, his parents died in battle, his two brothers died in battle, and his sister, a woman, died bravely under the claws of the vicious beasts. Even his younger brother and sister died in battle. Some people said that the Ro family would rise again in his generation, but it did not.
It did not!
Now, the only ones with the surname Ro in the camp were him, Ro Xin, and Ro Li.
However, the families of his four friends grew stronger.
Among them, the Boride family was the strongest. They teamed up with the other three families and were ready to make a move.
On top of that, there was a huge conflict between their ideals.
The Ro Drifter Camp had been developing for more than a hundred years. The camp was no longer just the five lineages of the Ro family, including himself. There were many other Drifters and they made up the majority of the population. If it was not for them, his position as the leader would have been shaken a long time ago.
However, even though the individual members supported him, it was hard for them to make a difference and they were easy to sow discord.
Now, there were signs of that happening.
Ro Yan would wake up in the middle of the night, worried that the Ro Drifter Camp that his ancestor built would be destroyed in his hands.
As a matter of fact, it would be fine if it was destroyed.
The Ros were never people who cared about power. Otherwise, with the current strength of the camp, they could have built a safety village or something.
What he was worried about was that in such a power struggle, no matter how unambitious you were, you would still be ruthlessly killed or tightly controlled.
Other than death, his children would have no choice but to submit to others and live an ignoble life without freedom.
Therefore, Ro Yan could not afford to lose! He could lose the camp, but how could he lose the bloodline of the Ro family?
With that in mind, Ro Yan's expression did not change at all. He remained calm and dignified.
He looked at the three people sitting below him.
Chief Captain Jim, Boride.
Second and Third Division Captain Colin Daniel and Sanada Kazuichi.
The three of them were the outstanding descendants of the four major families, especially Jim. He was from the same generation as Ro Li and had already become a rank 1 Purple Moon Warrior at the age of 22.
His talent was considered great even in the safety sector.
Therefore, the Boride family was insufferably arrogant because they seemed to be blessed by the heavens.
The two generations of the Ro family were filled with powerhouses.
On the other hand, Ro Xin was definitely talented and she might become a scientist that every safety city would pay attention to — a doctor.
As for Ro Li, he … Complicated emotions rose in Ro Yan's heart again. He recalled that night 16 years ago and the man he met.
What kind of eyes did he have? Could he see the future?
Suppressing the complicated emotions in his heart, Ro Yan said, "Jim, why are the three of you looking for me in such a hurry? What's the matter?"
"Chief, honorable Uncle Ro Yan, I heard that Ro Xin is back. Did she bring a stranger back this time? "Jim stood up and bowed slightly before he voiced his question to Ro Yan.
As expected!
