Chapter 83: The Origins of the Lady
years using all sorts of despicable and underhanded tactics to amass so much land.Now the fields have returned to the villagers' hands, and it will take at least that many years to reclaim them!Most i...Yang Lin walked in with a smile.
The woman immediately stood up, looking at Yang Lin with caution. She frowned and addressed Qin Shuang behind Yang Lin: "Didn't you say you went to ask someone This is..."
Yang Lin stepped forward and said, "My name is Yang Lin. May I ask your esteemed name, Miss"
"Purple Robe!"
The woman spoke, her voice cold: "Have you seen the person I'm looking for"
"The person you're looking for, I might have seen her, but he didn't describe her very clearly just now. I'm not even sure if the woman I saw was the one you're looking for."
"So, Miss Zi Yi, could you describe the person you're looking for a little more What does she look like Or are there any distinguishing features"
Yang Lin Bin bin politely asked, but in his heart he became more and more vigilant.
The name Ziyi must be fake.
Where would a normal person have the surname "Zi"
Zi Yi frowned slightly and said, "He's about the same age as me, a little thinner than me. He's incredibly handsome with peach blossom eyes, long eyebrows, a high nose bridge, full red lips, and very fair skin."
As for her features... although she doesn't have any particular ones, she has a very special aura. She is gentle and dignified, with an air of quiet strength and a dominant personality. She speaks with authority and her words carry weight!
Speaking of this, Zi Yi raised her eyes and stared intently at Yang Lin's eyes. Her dark pupils seemed as if they could see through people's hearts.
"Young master, the woman I seek is a rare beauty, one who appears only once in a thousand years. I wouldn't expect to find her here in the wilderness, and even in the world today, she would be uncommon. If you have ever seen her, you must remember. Please tell me truthfully! If you can help me find her, I will reward you handsomely!"
Ziyi said, bowing and cupping her hands towards Yang Lin.
Yang Lin was slightly surprised.
Hearing this description, he could be absolutely sure that the person Ziyi was looking for was Li Yuyao!
But now, I still don't know what the Purple-clothed woman's identity is. What are her intentions in looking for Li Yuyao Is it good or bad
Before that, he speculated that Li Yiyiao might be a well-bred young lady from a wealthy family.
While Ziyi's words and actions were like those of a wandering knight errant.
What kind of relationship would there be between the two of them
Before Yang Lin figured out the other party's identity, he naturally wouldn't reveal Li Yuyao's whereabouts.
Yang Lin didn't hesitate at all. As soon as Zi Yi finished speaking, he suddenly realized and nodded.
"Oh, hearing you say it like that, the woman you described, I have indeed seen her!"
Where is she
Zizi hurried to chase and ask.
Yang Lin shook his head. "I don't know where she lives... My family makes tofu, and every once in a while, she comes to buy it from us. If the Purple-Clothed Maiden wants to find her, just wait for her next time she comes to buy tofu."
"Tofu"
In purple, her face was strange as she questioned, "When will she be here next"
"Yang Lin shook his head again. "I don't know. But she came three days ago, and she usually comes every three or four days, so she should be coming soon."
"By the way, Miss Ziyi, what's your relationship with that woman What's the matter with her"
Ziyì shook her head: "Thank you, sir, for letting me know. But some things are best left unknown to you! Since she will be back soon, I will wait here for her! Your great kindness, sir, will be repaid another day."
In purple attire, Ziyi bowed to Yang Lin before turning towards Zhao Fu Gui's wife and bowing with clasped fists. "Thank you for your hospitality! I must take my leave!"
Saying that, he strode out of Zhao Fugui's house.
Just as Yang Lin was puzzled, the woman in purple left in a flurry. What could she possibly be doing
Just then, he saw the other person come outside. He found a large tree and sat down cross-legged beneath it, closing his eyes to meditate.
Yang Lin was speechless for a moment.
This woman, couldn't she possibly be planning to just sit under a tree and wait like this "Ahem, Lady Ziyi, I have a small courtyard that's vacant. If you don't mind, you could rest there first. When the woman you're looking for arrives, I'll go and call you."
"Thank you for your kindness, but no need, I'll just wait here!"
Saying this, she fell silent, like an old monk in deep meditation, even her breath became barely perceptible.
Yang Lin carefully examined the other person's attire. Although their clothes were worn and tattered, they carried a heavy pack on their back, which remained firmly strapped on from the moment she was seen until now.
That package must contain something important.
Besides, Yang Lin noticed that although the woman in purple had a good figure, her waist was bulging unharmoniously. It was obvious that something was hidden there!
"Bring a few people over, keep an eye on her! Watch her every move, don't startle her, and don't let her get near my house!"
Step back a bit, Yang Lin whispered to Qin Shuang.
"Yes!" Qin nodded.
Yang Lin hurried home and found Li Yuyao.
"You're just in time."
Upon seeing Yang Lin, Li Yunyao took the initiative and said, “Yesterday on Black Wind Mountain, you mentioned the role of saltpeter and promised to explain it in detail later. I’m very curious, what other uses could that stone possibly have”
"Uh..."
Yang Lin didn't expect Li Yuyao to remember this.
"My lady, have you ever heard of gunpowder"
Li Yuyao shook her head in confusion.
"Fire...medicine Could it be a kind of medicinal herb" Li Yuyao asked in bewilderment.
She really didn't know where Yang Lin came up with so many unfamiliar terms, she had never heard of them before.
Yang Lin smiled and shook his head: "Gunpowder isn't really medicine, it's an explosive!"
"Boom…explosion What's that again"
Li Yuxiang looked at Yang Lin in confusion again.
Yang Lin only then realized that before gunpowder, the words "explosion" were still a fresh term.
Yang Lin thought for a moment, avoiding any more unfamiliar terms. He explained in a way that Li Yiyao could understand.
"My lady, do you know about thunder An explosion is similar to thunder. It can release tremendous power in an instant, destroying everything around it, creating high temperatures and heat waves. Its power is immense!"
Li Yuyao's eyes widened in disbelief, then grew even larger as she asked in astonishment, "You mean that you can create weapons as powerful as heavenly thunder using just saltpeter"
"No, this is impossible!"
Before Yang Lin could answer, she herself denied the possibility.
What is thunder It is the power of the gods! How could mortals possibly possess the power of the gods
Even though Yang Lin made tofu, water wheels, and improved iron smelting, she still didn't believe that anything in this world could rival the power of heavenly thunder!
Especially, this kind of thing, is it made out of stone
It's like something out of a fairy tale!
Looking at Li Yuyao's astonishment, Yang Lin was unsurprised.
It's hard to believe and accept something that has never happened before!
"Let's not talk about this for now, my lady. We've been married for so long, and you've never told me anything about yourself."
"My business"
Li Yuxiang slightly frowned, her heart unexpectedly feeling a bit nervous.
If he were to know that she was the princess of Great Qi, the former empress...
"My lady, I can tell that you are different from others. To be honest, I've always been curious, where do you come from"zi scratched her head."Let's put it this way, cast iron has the most impurities, followed by wrought iron, and steel has the least. Therefore, steel has greater hardness and strength than both cast ir...
