The Rebirth of the Lazy Nobles Woman
Chapter:83

The system notification rang, and Gu Xiqiao looked at this old man with a young heart and rubbed his chin seriously before agreeing to add him to his friend list.

Afterwards, the two talked for a while and really matched up, and Tang Wenbo thought that the girl was much better than the boy at home. “You are almost the same age as my grandson, so you can call me Grandpa Tang!”

Grandfather Tang. Gu Xiqiao followed him with a smile, making the old man laugh in satisfaction, before asking, “Are you here to look for something in particular?”

Gu Xiqiao looked around at the store's items, but there was nothing he wanted according to the system's assessment, and after thinking about it for a while, he replied, “I am here to look for ancient jade pieces, but it is difficult. ”.

A store of that size did not have what it wanted, so the same might apply to other shops and stalls on the street.

Ancient Jade? Tang Wenbo looked at the girl in surprise. “That's hard, but you might be able to find it if you look for it carefully enough. Why don't I come with you, I don't have another job today? ”

Gu Xiqiao agreed, and both of them went around the entire street, but found no pieces of jade. In the end, Gu Xiqiao only bought two jade pieces that were cut back then and there.

“Well that was strange, there should be at least one part ..” Tang Jinyu looked towards the time, before looking at Gu Xiqiao. “How about you go home and come back tomorrow, I'm sure they will replenish?”

“Thank you for your help, Grandpa Tang, I'll go shopping by myself at the window, you go home, okay?” Gu Xiqiao raised his hand to cover his eyes, before putting it down again. He had a strong premonition that there was an ancient piece of jade there, but he simply could not find it for now.

When he raised his hand, the jade bracelet that was on his wrist slid out, and Tang Wenbo was suddenly stunned as he looked at it for a long time.

Grandpa Tang? Gu Xiqiao asked curiously. “Is everything okay?”

“...Not what.” Tang Wenbo retracted his gaze. “Well, I have to go home now, goodbye.”

Gu Xiqiao looked at the old man leaving before raising his hand again, thinking for a moment before giving up and focusing on his current task — To find that obnoxious piece of ancient jade.

“System, this ancient jade piece is too good to hide, do you have any way to sniff it?” Gu Xiqiao rubbed his head, feeling a headache coming. He had already leveled up to Bone Refinement, and his mental strength had grown much stronger as well to the point where he could cover the entire path with a lot left over, but it was still impossible for him to find that piece of ancient jade.

Now that he had used up his mental strength, it could not be used for a while longer.

[Loading ... 50 points are required to detect the location of the ancient jade!] The system quickly notified.

“Why is it so expensive?” Gu Xiqiao asked in surprise. He thought it would be easy for the system to find the ancient jade just by scanning the path.

Hearing this, the spirit system replied: [Beauty Qiao, this ancient jade piece is supernatural and has enough spiritual energy that he has already learned how to disguise himself. The system needs to use energy to find it, and the more energy it needs, the more points it costs!]

“... Fine, I'll bite.” Gu Xiqiao gritted his teeth slightly, before continuing, “But you have to find him!”

[Dig! 50 Points have been successfully deducted! Destination secured!]

A clear arrow appeared on the system interface, and Gu Xiqiao quickly found a stall with all sorts of trinkets after following it.

A small bowl was placed in the most conspicuous stall position, and the ancient jade piece he was looking for was currently black like coal, and seemed to be used as a sort of glass coasters.

In the end, Gu Xiqiao spent twenty thousand yuan to buy the bowl, and it was as if he did not know how much the black stone cost, either, he weighed it briefly in his palm before looking at the stall owner. “I'll take this back to put this bowl on it, is it okay?”

[Beauty Qiao, you are really lucky with this!] The spirit system exclaimed with bright eyes. [You didn't just get this piece of ancient jade, this bowl was also extremely valuable, right?]

“Ya it. This was a piece of Guan Ware from the Qing Dynasty, but the signature mark on the bottom seemed to be deliberately polished by someone, so the stall owner was unaware of it as well. He probably spent about a dozen on it, so he might laugh at me for being stupid right now. ” Gu Xiqiao takes a taxi back to the mansion.

[Are you going to sell it? It'll probably sell for about a million, huh?]

“No, I'll let Haha use it as a dog bowl.” Gu Xiqiao nonchalantly threw the bowl into his inventory, before taking out the ancient jade piece and looking at it carefully.

System spirit: [.].

“Is your pet dog made of gold?”

***

He bought a piece of ancient jade to create the array described in the old book that the system had given him, and this ancient array could be stored into a piece of jade.

The reward Tang Yanling gave her was too heavy, and she never thought about how to pay it until the spirit of the system told her about this jade array that could facilitate good health, keep her young and beautiful, and protect her life when she needs it . Although that last function might not be used, but it was the greatest gift he could give right now.

He also wanted to give Jiang Shuxuan the same array, but since his ancient martial arts level was too high, ordinary seals and arrays would be useless to him, he said, and along with that array level would require a corresponding quality of ancient jade.

There was a layer of patina that enveloped the ancient jade piece, and because Gu Xiqiao was too lazy to send it to be cleaned by a professional, it was too difficult for him to clean, he used 5 points to buy a mysterious solution that had the same effect of the system.

As the outer layer of the ancient jade was cleaned, it showed a round piece of white jade that was somewhat translucent and ivory-colored, and there was a dragon motif engraved on it, and just by looking at it, one could sense that it had quite a history.

“System, I want to buy Heavenly Talisman.” Gu Xiqiao looked at the beautiful piece of ancient jade with great appreciation before speaking, feeling the warm energy flow from the piece of jade gushing into him through his palm.

[Dig! 1500 Points has been deducted, transaction completed!]

Suddenly, a bunch of seals flashed through his mind, and Gu Xiqiao closed her eyes to train this seal in the void a few times before opening her eyes when she was ready.

Ancient jade floated in front of him, and Gu Xiqiao began to make seals with his hands as a pulse of natural energy flowed into the jade piece as if it was being pulled by some sort of supernatural power into the jade piece.

As his movements became faster and faster, beads of sweat began to appear on his forehead, and along with the last movement, the jade pieces rotated in the air like tops before stopping!

At the same time, Jiang Shuxuan who was fighting with the old Daoist priest in the suburbs looked towards the city, where spiritual and natural energy channels had formed in the sky. He was quite surprised by this, and because his mind was busy, he did not hold back in the slightest, making the old Taoist priest cough up black blood.

Jiang Shuxuan looked back at him coldly, and he waved his hand again as he saw a wisp of black energy surrounding the old Taoist priest in front of him.

The next moment, the old Taoist priest turned into ashes, and disappeared with the wind.

Then, he stood there as he looked at the gigantic energy vortex, unknown emotions flashing through his eyes as he muttered, “Even Grandfather probably wouldn't be able to make such a fuss, either, which hidden master did this?”

After the whirlpool disappeared, he retracted his gaze and made a mental note to examine it later, before he disappeared with a flash.
