Pirate commander in Qin Shi, his wife Yan Lingji

"By the way, the owner of that jade pendant is a young girl, sixteen years old."

Madam Hu's delicate body trembled, her beautiful eyes filled with tears: "16 years old, 16 years...my daughter, my daughter."

The next moment, Mrs. Hu bent her knees and was about to bow down.

Li Xuanqing stepped forward, supported Madam Hu's arm with both hands and said, "Madam, this is impossible."

Madam Hu wept, grabbed Li Xuanqing's sleeves with both hands, and kept chasing: "Commander Bandit, please, please tell me, where is that girl, where is she?"

Li Xuanqing looked at Mrs. Hu, who was delicate and pear-blossoming, with a smile in her eyes, and said with relief: "Madam, don't worry, I'll take you to see her right away."

"It just so happens that she is here in Xinzheng City."

Madam Hu nodded again and again: "Okay, okay."

"Ma'am, I've offended you." As soon as Li Xuanqing finished speaking, she wrapped her arms around Madam Hu's graceful waist with her right hand, swept her body, and rode away in the wind.

"Ah!" Madam Hu exclaimed, her figure was lithe, and she was in the air.

When she saw herself flying into the sky, she closed her eyes in fright and hugged Li Xuanqing tightly.

Chapter 025

Purple Orchid Study.

After a busy day, Nongyu was ready to rest.

Today is the first day of Zilan Study's opening, and Huaxia Paper is very popular. Today's sales share is sold out within two hours, and all forces come to purchase and place orders in large quantities.

Zilanxuan was changed to Zilan Study, not only the profits increased significantly, but the workload of the girls was not as much as before, and they didn't have to deal with all kinds of difficult customers against their will.

The house in the backyard is where the women live.

Nongyu has removed her light makeup, has long wine red hair with a shawl, willow-leaf eyebrows, beautiful almond eyes, melon-seeded face, cherry lips and small mouth, and is wearing light green pajamas.

Knock, knock, knock... There was a knock on the door.

Zi Nu asked, "Nongyu, can I come in?"

Nong Yu said casually, "Sister Zi Nu, please come in."

With a creak, Zi Nu pushed the door open and walked in to the dressing table.

Nongyu looked at a jade pendant in a daze, Zinu sighed sadly, "Nongyu, are you thinking about your own life again?"

Zi Nu shook her head and said, "I have been looking for your parents all these years, but unfortunately there are too few clues, and there is nothing else except this jade pendant."

Nongyu turned around, buried her head in Zi Nu's slender waist and lower abdomen, and said softly, "Sister, Nongyu knows, thank you for everything you have done."

Zi Nuyu stroked Nongyu's hair and forehead with her hands, she was as gentle, elegant and intellectual as a mother, and said in a gentle voice, "Okay, go to bed early."

"The reconstruction of the paper workshop did not happen overnight, and we have been busy for a long time."

Nongyu nodded and said, "Well, Sister Zi Nu, you should also go to bed earlier."

Just as Zi Nu was about to nod, her delicate earlobe moved slightly, and she said, "Li Xuanqing is back."

"It seems that killing Liu Yi is easy for him."

Zi Nu suggested: "Let's go and have a look."

Nongyu nodded, and the two girls pushed the door and walked out. As soon as they went out, they saw Li Xuanqing let go of a beautiful woman with a gentle temperament, and the two stood quietly in the flower garden.

The strange color in Zi Nu's eyes flickered away, her complexion froze slightly, and then she said with a light smile, "Hehe, as expected of Xiangshuai, he is indeed a rare romantic robber in the Jianghu."

"It's so late, where did you kidnap this gentle and elegant lady?"

Madam Hu blushed when she heard this.

Also, in the dead of night, she was alone with a young man as a married woman, anyone who saw her would be suspicious.

What's more, Li Xuanqing also killed Liu Yi and her nominal husband.

Li Xuanqing didn't know whether to laugh or cry, touched her nose and said, "Miss Zi Nu, Madam Hu didn't come to look for me."

"Oh!?" Zi Nu and Nong Yu were taken aback.

Nongyu laughed and said: "Xiang Shuai is really good at joking, you brought a woman in the dead of night, but you said that this woman didn't come to see you, who would believe it?"

Li Xuanqing looked at Nongyu with a smile, the smile made Nongyu inexplicable, it seemed to contain a bit of gloating, as if she was looking forward to her making a fool of herself.

Li Xuanqing smiled, slowly spread his right hand, and a jade pendant appeared in his hand.

"Huh?" Nongyu gasped in surprise, and said, "Why is my jade pendant in your hand?"

While Nongyu was speaking, he subconsciously touched his waist, touched his agate jade pendant, and said in surprise, "Hey, why is this jade pendant exactly the same as mine?"

When Mrs. Hu heard this, her delicate body trembled, and Mo Yu's eyes filled with tears.

Nongyu stepped forward, looked back and forth carefully at the jade pendant in Li Xuanqing's hand, and compared it with his own. Not only was the material the same, but the carving technique was the same, and it could even be spliced ​​into one piece.

Li Xuanqing said: "It seems that this is a jade pendant, but it was split into two."

Nongyu came to his senses, his eyes were dazed, he was in a daze, and his voice trembled slightly: "Xiang Shuai, you, where did you get this jade pendant?"

Li Xuanqing smiled slightly, turned sideways and said, "Madam Hu, return your jade pendant to you."

Madam Hu subconsciously took the jade pendant, and stared at Nongyu with beautiful eyes full of tears.

Nongyu also looked at Mrs. Hu, and the gentle and virtuous lady in front of her gave her a sense of déjà vu from the depths of her soul.

Zi Nu said in a low voice: "Just looking at the appearance, there are indeed six or seven points of similarity; especially between the eyebrows, not only the shape is similar, but also the spirit is extremely similar."

"Could she be Nongyu's mother?"

Li Xuanqing turned and left, saying: "Miss Zi Nu, you picked up Nongyu and you raised her; you have the most right to speak about Nongyu's past."

"I also ask you to clarify the confusion for Mrs. Hu."

After the words fell, Li Xuanqing drifted away.

In the courtyard, the three women looked at each other.

After a long time, Zi Nu said, "Madam Hu, Nongyu, let's talk in the room."

Regarding what they talked about and how long they talked, Li Xuanqing didn't listen, and fell asleep after returning to the house.

Early the next morning, the dining hall.

Li Xuanqing came late, Zi Nu had dark circles under her eyes, while Nong Yu and Madam Hu stared at slightly red and swollen eyes.

After sitting down, Li Xuanqing served himself a bowl of porridge, and said while drinking, "It seems that you two talked all night."

Nongyu and Mrs. Hu looked at each other, got up and saluted slowly, and said in unison: "Thank you Xiangshuai for making my mother and daughter recognize each other."

Mrs. Hu wept with joy: "I thought I would never see my daughter again in this life, but I never thought I could recognize each other in this way."

Li Xuanqing shook her head slightly: "Madam should be grateful to Miss Zi Nu, without her, Nong Yu would not be what she is now; let alone the acquaintance today."

Zi Nu waved her hand and said: "Madam thanked me many times last night, if I hadn't stopped her, she would have knelt down and prostrated."

Mrs. Hu said emotionally: "Miss Zi Nu has the kindness of raising Nongyu, and the kindness of raising is greater than the kindness of birth. You are the greatest benefactor of our mother and daughter in this life."

Zi Nu smiled and said: "Okay, okay, Ma'am, you are Nongyu's mother, so that is a family. A family doesn't have to be so polite."

Li Xuanqing asked: "Miss Zi Nu, Madam, can she stay?"

Zi Nu said angrily: "Xiang Shuai is really good. He killed Zuo Sima Liu Yi and kidnapped his wife. Now, this matter has been widely spread and everyone in the city knows about it."

"Madam was kidnapped by you, how can she go back and be her Madam Hu?"

Nongyu said coquettishly: "Sister Zi Nu, I also hope that mother can stay."

Zi Nu smiled and said: "If it's Zi Lan Xuan, it's really not suitable to keep Madam Hu; but Zi Lan Study is different, leaving Madam will not cause gossip."

Mrs. Hu bowed and said, "Thank you Miss Zi Nu."

After thinking for a while, Mrs. Hu plucked up her courage and said, "Miss Zi Nu, I have one more merciless request."

"I have a personal servant girl with a pitiful background. Her father died early. I kept her by my side when she sold her body to bury her father. Now that I have come to Zilanxuan, she may have nowhere to go."

Zi Nu smiled and said: "This matter is simple, I will send someone to bring her to Zi Lan Study, Madam can rest assured."

Mrs. Hu was grateful: "Miss Zi Nu is really a kind-hearted person."

Li Xuanqing stood up, stretched her waist and said, "I've finished eating."

"Go back and catch up on sleep."

In the private bedroom, Li Xuanqing meditated cross-legged, and said, "System, the task difficulty rating started last night."

PS: Today's fifth watch is over, I'm asking for a gift, veterans!

Chapter 026 Movable type printing, female swordsmen

Pirate Commander System: "Ding Dong, the difficulty rating of the stealing mission started last night—"

"Enemy combat strength: Black Crow, the peak of the Houtian Nine Layers; Red Owl, the early days of the Houtian Nine Layers; Baifeng, the peak of the Houtian Eighth Layer; Vulture, the peak of the Houtian Eighth Layer."

"A number of Hundred Bird Killers, three thousand city defense troops."

"Our combat strength: the host Li Xuanqing, who is the master of the Waigang. One peerless mental method, two peerless martial arts, and several superior martial arts."

Pirate Commander's system comment: "The task difficulty level is low."

Li Xuanqing seemed to have expected it long ago, and whispered to himself: "As expected, the difficulty is relatively low. Killing Liu Yi is almost no difficulty for me, and it went very smoothly."

Pirate Commander System: "Ding Dong, the host completes a low-difficulty task once, and obtains his own qualifications for half a year."

"May I ask the host, do you want to receive it now?"

Li Xuanqing kneaded the formula with both hands, operated the Youlong Baojian, and said silently in her heart: "Receive the cultivation base."

Pirate Commander System: "Ding Dong, the half-year cultivation base empowerment begins."

Buzz!

The pure spiritual energy imbues the meridians of the whole body, walks along with Youlong Baojian's heart method, and after running the great cycle, hides it in the dantian of the sea of ​​​​qi and turns it into his own use.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Li Xuanqing had refined all of them, and gained half a year's strength of her own aptitude.

"Huh—" Li Xuanqing breathed out a long breath of turbid air, and the mind was running for the last big cycle, all the fluctuating true energy was stored in the dantian, and all the energy of the master of the outer gang was restrained.

Li Xuanqing felt the true energy in her body, and said with a light smile at the corner of her mouth, "That's right, it's one step closer to the peak of Outer Gang."

"Next, choose the reward link."

Li Xuanqing pondered: "Spiritual skills, martial arts, and magical weapons can all be ruled out. Tasks with low difficulty, the rewards are all inferior grades."

"Next, choose one of the skills and abilities."

Li Xuanqing thought for a while and said, "Let's choose the skill category. You don't have to overwhelm yourself with too many skills. And according to past experience, choosing skill rewards for low-difficulty tasks is the best value for money."

"System, I choose skill rewards."

Pirate Commander System: "Ding dong, the skill rewards are starting."

"Reward 1, proficiency in chess; Reward 2, proficiency in refining weapons, which can be used to refine inferior weapons; Reward 3, movable type printing."

Li Xuanqing pondered: "With my intelligence and comprehension, as long as I want to learn Go, I can easily reach the level of proficiency."

"As for the mastery of weapon refining, although refining inferior weapons is good, it doesn't do much for me; I don't want to forge iron every day."

"Let's choose movable type printing. It can be used now. In addition to selling Huaxia paper, Zilan Study also conducts book business. With printing, book business is even more powerful."

Li Xuanqing whispered: "System, I choose movable type printing."

Stealing system: "Ding, rewards for movable type printing are issued."

Li Xuanqing suddenly felt that there was some unfamiliar knowledge in his head, and the scenes and paragraphs of text were imprinted in his mind, which was the whole process of movable type printing.

After digesting, Li Xuanqing fell back to sleep: "Have a good night's sleep and replenish your spirit."

When I woke up, it was already afternoon.

The backyard of Zilan Study is a flat square.

Zi Nu summoned a group of sisters, including Zi Nu and Nong Yu, all 36 women from Zi Lan Study, and a spectator, Mrs. Hu.

Haitang asked suspiciously: "Sister Zi Nu, what are you calling everyone for?"

Cai Die echoed, "Yes, the papermaking workshop hasn't been remodeled yet?"

"..."
