Chapter 4: The Mother-in-Law

Li Yu came to the town.

Qingshui Town was named after the Qingshui River outside the town, and the population was quite dense.

Standing on the street, he saw some inns, cloth shops, rice shops, pawnshops, and clinics on both sides of the street open for business. There were pedestrians coming and going on the street. Although there were not many, there were not few.

When Li Yu was a player in his previous life, he had been hanging out in Qingshui Town for a while, so he was quite familiar with it.

Next, he planned to stay here for a while.

Because there were also opportunities here that he needed to plan!

While thinking about how to implement the next plan, suddenly, a carriage slowly stopped in front of Li Yu.

The middle-aged coachman driving the carriage looked ordinary, but his bones were thick and his physique was strong. Li Yu could see that he was a martial artist who was proficient in martial arts.

"Miss, the weather is good today. You see, the streets are very lively now..."

A charming voice came from the carriage.

"Really?"

The curtains were drawn open, and a pair of bright eyes looked out of the window curiously.

But when she saw Li Yu not far away, her eyes froze, and she closed the curtains as if she was electrocuted, as if she was afraid of being polluted.

A soft voice came from the carriage, with a hint of disgust:

"You know that I have a clean fetish and can't stand seeing dirty things, but you still let me see this kind of person, Xiaomei, you can't do it on purpose?"

"I dare not."

"Forget it, this month's monthly allowance will be reduced by half, and remember to go back to the mansion to receive twenty whips."

Then, a slightly trembling voice sounded in the carriage: "Yes, I obey your order, thank you... Thank you for the reward, Miss..."

The whip in the mansion is not an ordinary whip, but a special leather whip with some spikes and dipped in chili water. Once whipped, it will hurt for several days, and it will hurt and itch. Even if he is a strong man, he will cry and beg for mercy.

"Let's go, the good mood of the day has been ruined by this beggar."

As he spoke, the carriage started quickly and drove away slowly.

Li Yu was a golden elixir immortal in his previous life, but now he was called a beggar in person, which made Li Yu raise his eyebrows.

But he was now in rags, with a shriveled body like a bamboo pole under the worn-out clothes, and exuded a nauseating stench, and his hair was messy, like weeds.

This look was no different from a beggar, no wonder he was disliked.

"Wait, Liu? Is this the carriage of the Liu Mansion?"

But when he saw the word "Liu" on the rear fender of the carriage, he suddenly smiled, and his smile was meaningful:

"Hehe, it's interesting..."

The Liu Mansion was the residence of a local wealthy businessman in Qingshui Town, with many shops and land under his name.

This was not the point. The point was that no one knew that there were two evil practitioners, or NPCs, hidden in the Liu Mansion.

Killing these two humanoid monsters would "explode" some good things. For example, magic tools, skills, elixirs and the like.

In addition to these things, there is also a broken jade of Chilong in Liu Mansion.

Behind this thing, there is a hidden inheritance.

This is Li Yu's real goal!

As for how to attack Liu Mansion, this is not urgent, and it cannot be urgent. Li Yu needs to prepare more in advance.

After all, it is not easy for him, an ordinary person, to seek the broken jade of Chilong under the eyes of two evil cultivators, which is no less than going alone into a dragon's den and a tiger's lair.

Turning around the long street and passing through an alley, Li Yu came to the door of an inconspicuous courtyard.

Then...

He showed a rare trace of respect and gentleness on his face, and knocked on the door gently.

Dongdongdong!

"Who is it..." An old voice came from the door.

"Grandma, it's me... Xiaoyu..."

Li Yu said softly.

"Xiaoyu? My good grandson is back?!"

When the people inside heard this, their voices suddenly became higher, with a little trembling, and they were obviously a little excited: "Wait, grandma will open the door for you!"

Then, the door opened, and it was a white-haired old woman who opened the door.

The old woman's face was covered with wrinkles. She was quite old, and her expression was kind and gentle, but her eyes showed an abnormal grayish white color, as if covered with a layer of haze.

This was a blind old woman.

"Xiaoyu, let me see you."

The old woman took a few steps forward, leaning on a cane in one hand and groping around with the other hand anxiously. Li Yu supported her: "Grandma, it's me."

In his previous life, Li Yu landed in Qingshui Town just after entering the game.

Because he was short of money, he had a hard time walking for a while, and even eating became a problem.

Later, it was this blind old woman who took him in.

This old woman had no name, and was called Granny Ge. Her husband died early, and she had a son. After finally marrying and having children, the family of three was accidentally hit by bandits when they were out, leaving her alone here.

Of course, Granny Ge was not clear about this for the time being, but she was too old and a little confused. She stubbornly believed that her son's family of three had gone to seek refuge with distant relatives and was unwilling to come back for the time being.

Some neighbors speculated that her son's family had probably met with an accident.

Coincidentally, her grandson's name was Li Yu, which was the same pronunciation as his name but with different characters.

In her previous life, it was after hearing Li Yu's name that Granny Ge stubbornly regarded him as her own grandson, treated him as her own son, and took good care of him.

No matter how Li Yu explained, she was stubborn.

Li Yu was a child of an orphanage in the real world. He had enjoyed social welfare and experienced the warmth and coldness of human nature, but he had never been exposed to family affection.

The grandmotherly love and care of Granny Ge made him feel the taste of family affection for the first time, which left a deep impression on him. Even in the later stages of the game, he still missed this kind old woman.

Now, he needs a reasonable identity to integrate into Qingshui Town.

And Granny Ge is the key person to prove his identity.

"Oh... my little fish has grown taller and thinner, but I am so distressed."

Touching Li Yu's head and holding his skinny hand, Granny Ge did not doubt his identity at all. Instead, she was so distressed that she almost cried and hurriedly pulled him home:

"Come on, you have walked such a long way, are you hungry? Granny will make you something delicious."

Li Yu followed Granny Ge into the yard obediently.

The yard was not big and a little shabby, but it was cleaned up, with a touch of simplicity and simplicity.

Although Granny Ge was blind, she had lived in the yard for more than 60 years and knew the layout of the yard better than anyone else, so she kept the yard clean and tidy.

Not long after, a bowl of steaming hand-rolled noodles was served, with a white egg on top and a little chopped green onion sprinkled on it, full of fragrance.

Li Yu was not polite, he was also very hungry, and he took it and gobbled it up directly.

In a cup of tea, a large bowl of hand-rolled noodles went into his stomach, Li Yu burped comfortably, and then Granny Ge took his hand and started asking questions and chatting.

A pair of old, dry hands with age spots held his hand tightly, as if afraid that he would leave her immediately.

Li Yu, who had killed countless demons and monsters in his previous life, was smiling at this time, without any impatience, patiently chatting with the old man, reasoning, and making the old man laugh from time to time.
