Specialties: [Adventurer] [Girl Savior]

Experience point: 284

This means that he doesn't need to practice sword anymore. After all, practicing on his own can't be as fast as using experience points directly.

For example, the hunter's archery skills improved by practicing with Duraf in the wild for half a day, which was only equivalent to a few points of experience. It was not as good as beating up a black-backed bass.

It’s just that there are too few experience points now, and the level is still an eternal bottomless pit.

Fortunately, his skills are sufficient for now, including both long-range and melee combat. He can focus on improving them first. After they are at the maximum level, combined with his extraordinary physique, he may be able to compete with the owner of the Eye of God.

"West Wind Sword Technique?"

At this time, a slightly curious voice was heard, and the person who pushed open the iron gate and walked into the courtyard was Miss Eula, who was wearing black over-the-knee boots and had elegant manners.

Obviously she was attracted by the way Li Qiuzhi practiced swordsmanship just now.

After all, she couldn't agree with the fact that swordsmanship was practiced with a scimitar, nor could she pretend not to see it.

"Good morning, Miss Eula." She said yesterday that she would come over to get the keys, so Li Qiuzhi was not surprised by Eula's appearance.

"Here, the key."

Youla walked in front of Li Qiuzhi, stretched out her right hand holding two keys, slightly released her gloved fingers and pinched the key ring. Ding ding, the iron keys collided and made a crisp sound.

"Okay, thank you for coming over again, Miss Eula."

Li Qiuzhi stretched out his hand and placed it under the key, waiting for Youla to let go and the key would fall into his palm.

However, he didn't expect that Eula would just slap it down with one hand. When the key fell into his hand, he also felt a little pain.

"Hmph. You're using the West Wind Sword Technique, right? Are you so casual about it?"

Youla crossed her chest with her hands habitually, and slightly raised her beautiful ice-blue eyebrows. Her eyes were fixed on the scimitar that Li Qiuzhi used to practice sword, and there seemed to be dissatisfaction in her expression.

Although she did not agree with many of the nobles' outdated rules.

But there are still a few things that she likes, one of which is that you need to be serious about everything you do. The same view is also held in the etiquette of knights.

So it's no wonder that she was upset when she saw Li Qiuzhi practicing Xifeng swordsmanship with a scimitar.

If he was just an ordinary person on the street, Eula would not care about him, but Li Qiuzhi gave her a good feeling and she did not have the disgust that most people had towards her.

After getting to know each other yesterday and renting her house, I can be considered her friend, after all.

You need to be strict with your friends.

Li Qiuzhi put away the key and rubbed his hands. He didn't expect that he would be blamed by Youla for practicing sword without using the sword.

Indeed, he had the mentality of saving money if he could use it. After all, with his little Mora, he couldn't afford a decent one-handed sword.

He said with an awkward expression but without revealing his true feelings:

"Miss Eula, I originally studied archery. A few days ago, I confiscated this trophy from the treasure-stealing group, so I wanted to borrow the book "Festival Swordplay: Basics" from the library to see if I have a talent for swordplay.

"If it feels okay, I'll certainly prepare a good one-handed sword."

For the sake of his own face, he said this half-truth. He would definitely learn swordsmanship, no matter what his talent was, he could use his experience to defeat him after he got started.

As for the scimitar, of course he would change it, but only when he had more money. With the more than 200,000 Mora he currently had, he could not afford a good sword.

It would be a waste to buy a weapon just for practice and to buy a defective one that breaks after two battles.

"That's it."

After listening to Li Qiuzhi's explanation, Youla put her hand on her fair chin and spoke, her tone a little weaker.

She can understand that it is normal to first simply test whether you have the ability to learn this technology, and then decide whether to delve deeper into it.

Wrapping her index finger around the ice-blue hair, Youla raised her face slightly, thought for a moment and said:

"Since you want to learn the West Wind Sword Technique, you can come to the Knights' Order to find me this afternoon. I can teach you a few tricks."

Li Qiuzhi felt a little surprised when he heard what Youla said.

I didn't expect that Eula would take the initiative to teach him the Favorable Sword Technique. Now that her favorability has reached level 2, will she take the initiative to help with small things as a friend?

Come to think of it, this is probably the reason.

"It's great that Miss Eula is willing to teach me, but is it a hassle? Will it delay your work time in the afternoon?"

Although Li Qiuzhi has already mastered the basics of [French Swordsmanship: Basics], he would naturally not refuse the opportunity to spend time with Eula, and his affection for her grew through these daily contacts.

Of course, Li Qiuzhi's answer was more subtle and not too straightforward. He expressed his concern for Eula's work problems from her perspective as a Knight of Favonius.

"Don't worry. Our guerrilla team will return to Mondstadt for the next two days to replenish supplies and rest. As the captain, I don't need to do anything myself."

Eula put down her fingers that were fiddling with her hair, and her soft lips formed a slight smile.

"Well, Miss Eula, thank you so much." Li Qiuzhi nodded happily.

He knew that Eula was the captain of a guerrilla squad in the Knights of Favonius, and that she had to lead the team on patrols for a long time to eliminate dangerous monsters and the Cult of the Abyss.

The time to return to Mond is very short, and it seems that these two days are just the right time for the guerrilla team to return to Mond for supplies.

"Very good. Don't be late at one o'clock in the afternoon, otherwise this grudge will be huge. I will take revenge on the spot!"

When Youla saw that Li Qiuzhi agreed readily, a look of satisfaction appeared on her face, but she did not forget to threaten him in a very unique way.

"Yes, please don't worry, Miss Eula."

Li Qiuzhi nodded repeatedly. Although he was curious about Eula's way of revenge, he was unwilling to bring trouble upon himself.

"Just call me Eula."

Eula said casually before leaving.

[Eula has developed a favorable impression of you, gaining 45 points of favorable impression, and the current favorable impression level is Lv.2 (105/200)]

Looking at Eula's graceful back, the one-shoulder cloak on the right side swayed slightly as her legs crossed. Ignoring its interference, one could glimpse the snow-soft skin on her back.

The backless black leather bodysuit also outlines the plump curve of the hips.

Li Qiuzhi was thinking about the sword practice appointment with Youla in the afternoon.

The time is almost up. I promised Sanborn, the owner of the fishing tackle shop, yesterday that I would go over to take over his commission, and I cannot go back on my word.

There is one more chapter to be published later (=^▽^=), please read it, collect it, and recommend it. Thank you for your support!

Chapter 31 Complex

After moving to Loloberry Street, it was a little far to go to Sanborn's fishing tackle store.

As soon as Youla left, Li Qiuzhi tied the scimitar around his waist and went out. The arrows for the hunting bow were almost used up, and he didn't need to carry them with him for the time being as he had not accepted a commission to clear monsters in the wild.

Today, the weather is bad.

Li Qiuzhi looked up at the sky while walking between the streets. It was hazy, with no clouds and no sun.

In order to save time, Li Qiuzhi trotted and overtook a horse-drawn carriage carrying goods that was moving slowly, attracting the curious attention of the coachman wearing a hat.

Li Qiuzhi smiled politely in response and then ran faster.

About ten minutes later, just as he had warmed up, he arrived at the fishing tackle shop, where the gray-haired Sanborn was cleaning the store with a broom.

It seemed that he did not see Li Qiuzhi coming.

"Hi, Mr. Sanborn." Li Qiuzhi called out behind him in a calm tone.

Sanborn turned around with his broom when he heard the voice, and said with a little sparkle in his eyes: "Oh, there you are, young adventurer from Liyue."

"Yes, I agreed to take your commission yesterday evening, hehe."

Li Qiuzhi smiled and said.

"Ah." Sanborn sighed again when he mentioned what happened yesterday. He leaned the broom against the wall at the door and said, "Please come in. I'll tell you in detail."

The two came to the counter of the store, and Sanborn went inside and asked Li Qiuzhi to wait for a moment.

Sanborn pulled a sheaf of papers from the drawer under the counter. He opened the silver metal clip and took down the top two sheets of paper.

He handed it to Li Qiuzhi and said, "Take a look first."

Li Qiuzhi took it with a puzzled look, not quite understanding what was going on. He stood and looked carefully at the words written on the paper.

Fruit-brewed bait: 30 jin, 50,000 Mora;

Tarn brand simple fishing net: five pieces, 45,000 Mora;

Tarn brand hard bamboo fishing rods: 10 pairs, 30,000 molas;

In addition to the above information, there are many other items such as fish baskets, rain hats, raincoats, etc. This is a purchase invoice with a total value of 550,000 Mora.

At first glance, there doesn't seem to be anything strange about this.

Li Qiuzhi looked at the second receipt. The goods were almost the same, but the price had increased by about 20%. For example, 30 kilograms of fruit bait went from 50,000 Mora to 60,000 Mora.

The total amount of goods increased from 550,000 Mora to 700,000 Mora.

However, the two documents showed that the two purchase dates were less than two weeks apart.

The fishing industry in Mondstadt, especially in Mondstadt, is not prosperous at all compared to Liyue and Inazuma. After all, the Fruit Wine Lake is large but limited.

So generally speaking, the prices of related fishing gear and supplies will be relatively stable and should not rise so much in a short period of time.

"Is someone trying to profit from this?" Li Qiuzhi asked in surprise.

"I think so." Sanborn was silent for a moment, then moved the remaining stack of purchase orders in front of him, pointed to the top one and said, "This is the original price."

Li Qiuzhi couldn't help but take a look when he heard it. The goods were almost the same in quantity, but the total cost was only about 400,000 Mora.

"Is it Mr. Sanborn's old friend?"

Li Qiuzhi thought of the person Sanborn sighed about yesterday evening.

Sanborn put away the receipt and said as if recalling:

“At that time, I had just retired and my son suggested that I open a fishing tackle shop because he saw that I had nothing to do. I happily agreed.

"But my son is too busy, so I have to handle all the preparations. It's okay, but I really enjoy the feeling of being busy again.

"I met my good friend Lucal when I was looking for a source of supply. He is one of the sales managers of the Tarn Fishing Tackle Factory. Our friendship has been established over the past decade."

So they are indeed very good friends, after all, they have known each other for more than ten years. Li Qiuzhi thought silently in his heart.

"When the price increased for the first time, I asked him what was going on. He said that the factory's raw materials were robbed by monsters during transportation, and the price increase was only temporary due to the shortage of materials."

Sanborn continued:

“Although he was evasive at the time, I didn’t take it seriously and believed him after all, he was my old friend.

“The second time I felt a little strange. They couldn’t be robbed by monsters twice in a row. After learning their lesson, didn’t they know to ask a few powerful adventurers to protect them?

"I went to the Tarn factory to ask the employees there, and they said there was no news of price increases in the near future. At this time, I knew the problem was with my old friend Lucard."

Li Qiuzhi nodded after listening to it and asked with a simple guess:

"So Mr. Sanborn wants me to find evidence of Lukar's wrongdoing?"

Sanborn patted his gray-haired head and said softly:

"No, of course not. After so many years of friendship, I know very well that Lucard is definitely not such a despicable person. He must have encountered a hurdle in his life that he couldn't overcome.

"I don't want to confront my old friend and embarrass him. Young adventurer, all you need to do is help me find out what happened to him recently. Please help him if you can. I will give you a satisfactory reward."

Li Qiuzhi was a little surprised. He originally thought it was a simple script of finding evidence and arresting someone, but he didn't expect it to be quite complicated.

A cool breeze blew in, and the ends of Li Qiuzhi's hair on his forehead moved slightly. Since the emotions had been raised to this point, there was certainly no reason for him to refuse.

"I see. Leave this matter to me, Mr. Sanborn. I will try to help you investigate it."

Li Qiuzhi smiled and patted his chest as he agreed.

"Well, I'll leave it to you. I really don't want anything to happen to Lucard. He lives at 86 Dandelion Street. If you can't find him, you can go to the Tarn Fishing Tackle Factory."

After Sanborn told the story, he was obviously much more relaxed and his frown was no longer there.

When leaving Sanborn's fishing tackle shop, Li Qiuzhi glanced at the clock in the store. It was 9:15 in the morning.
