Folklore: The baby starts the game, and the mother takes off her painted skin

Chapter 141 The reason why my mother came out [asking for monthly ticket]

"mother!!!"

Liu Bai shouted very loudly, and the joy in his eyes was beyond words, even difficult to describe in words.

Just as he was about to jump onto the counter, Madam Liu stretched out her fair right hand, pressed on his little head, and pushed him back.

Then he turned around.

Seeing this, the knife seller in front of him became more cautious and said in a deep voice:

"Which business are you from, senior? I'm Liu Fang, a knife seller on credit. Greetings." The knife seller on credit was tactful. Upon seeing this, he immediately put the kitchen knife back into the backpack behind him, and then bowed obediently.

If he met someone else, his verbal courtesy might have been of some use, but unfortunately... the person he met was Madam Liu.

And he met Madam Liu when he wanted to buy a knife from Liu Bai on credit.

and so……

Liu Bai saw his mother use that move again. He watched helplessly as the knife seller, whose strength he did not know, turned into ashes in front of him.

This time he looked even more carefully and realized that after the death of the man who sold knives on credit, not even a trace of his soul was left.

This means that he is no longer qualified to be a ghost.

Before Lady Liu could turn around, Xiao Cao, who was lying on Liu Bai's back, had already jumped onto her, stretched out his hands to hug her arms, and cried bitterly:

"My queen, you finally came to pick me up. I missed you so much, my queen. Woo woo woo."

Madam Liu originally wanted to throw Xiaocao away, but then she changed her mind and realized that since this little guy followed her, it seemed that he had never left her for such a long time.

But she hesitated for a moment and found that Liu Bai was actually hugging her thighs.

He cried loudly with tears and snot.

Madam Liu, who was a bit of a germaphobe, saw this and immediately lost the warmth she had shown when they first met. She said coldly, "I'll count to three. If you two don't let go, I'll bury you under the peach tree at home as fertilizer!"

Liu Bai knew that his mother was a person of her word, so he let go immediately.

As for Xiaocao, she reacted faster. She had already sat on the table with her hands on the table, then gently swung her legs and said, "Master taught me to do this."

As soon as it finished speaking, Liu Bai used the mantra taught by Madam Liu to seal its mouth.

Under Madam Liu's slightly puzzled gaze, he said seriously: "I'm afraid it will disturb my conversation with mother."

Madam Liu thought about it and it seemed to be true, so she raised her hand and the Xiaocao had already returned to the drawer under the counter.

When she was in charge of the store, Xiaocao was always in that position.

Then in the blink of an eye, under the counter, only the grass was left shedding tears.

Liu Bai took the opportunity to ask hurriedly: "Mom, didn't you say that you can't come out, or you'll be discovered?"

"Why are you out now?"

"How long can you stay this time?"

"Mom, can you stay with me for a few more days and not be so anxious to go back?" Liu Bai said a lot in one breath.

But Madam Liu didn't answer a single question. She just stood in the red candle shop and looked around.

"Hmm... the counter is exactly the same as the one at home."

'The display on the shelf is also, well, that incense stick is not very good, it doesn't look like it was made in Wang's shop.'

"This paper money is OK. Judging from the material, it should be made by Huang Ji."

'...'

While Madam Liu was looking at everything in the shop, she was also thinking casually.

After all, when she opened the shop, all the goods were imported from this city. Now look at the shop opened by Liu Bai.

Comparisons are inevitable.

Then after comparing them, I found that this was exactly the same as the Red Candle Shop in Huangliang Town.

Even the soft chair behind the counter is exactly the same.

Liu Bai still often sleeps there.

Although it looked comfortable, Madam Liu had a look of disdain on her face, "Look at how homesick you are. You don't have any manliness at all."

Liu Bai raised his head, not knowing where his mother's warmth had gone, so he could only blink.

"Now that three years old is considered an adult, does that mean he is a man?"

Madam Liu: “…”

"Look at your collar, it's not even fixed, it's a mess!" Madam Liu started to get angry.

Liu Bai: "It was fine originally, but Xiao Cao messed it up when he got behind me."

Under the counter, Xiaocao stammered but couldn't say a word.

Seeing that Madam Liu was about to find trouble somewhere else, Liu Bai stretched out his hands very straightforwardly, and then said aggrievedly: "Mom, if you want to hit me, just hit me. There is no need to find so many excuses."

If you were caught before, you would be spanked.

Liu Bai was afraid of the same thing happening later. If this really happened and Ning Yi and the others saw it, he, the shopkeeper Liu, would lose all face!

No matter how strong you are, you are still a child who needs to be spanked at home.

Who wants to play with himself?
They can't help but laugh when they see themselves.

Seeing how well-behaved he was, Madam Liu was no longer so angry, although she didn't know why she was angry.

Just looking at the child in front of me makes me angry.

Maybe this is what being a mother is like?

Madam Liu has never been a mother, so she can only guess and then blame it on this.

Anyway, I can't admit that it's my problem.

It’s just that Liu Bai is too ignorant and never makes me feel at ease!

"Okay, close the door, and let's go home and talk." Madam Liu's words finally became gentler.

"Go home? Okay!"

Liu Bai immediately jumped to the door of the shop, then jumped up and lowered the bolt.

But he would jump up and fall down again, jump up and fall down again.

Madam Liu walked over with disdain, then reached out to bolt the door, "Your ghost body is already an adult, why do you look like this?"

"Hey, mother, how do you know that my ghost body has reached adulthood?"

"What doesn't mother know?" Madam Liu asked back.

Liu Bai muttered to himself... You don't know why I didn't turn into a ghost. If I could lock the door myself, you wouldn't come to help me.

It's just that this kind of thing can be done, but it can't be said.

If I say this out loud, I'll seem too pretentious.

After closing the door, the mother and daughter went home, just like when Liu Bai first came to the Blood Food City and then Madam Liu came to take her home.

Liu Bai held his mother's hand, walked forward a few steps, and returned to the familiar courtyard.

It has only been a few months since he left, but Liu Bai feels like he has been away from home for several years.

Perhaps because Liu Bai was not at home, no one cleaned up the fallen peach leaves on the ground, and there were pieces of peach gum hanging on the peach trees. Every place in the house was exactly the same as when Liu Bai left.

But even so, he still looked here and there, and then made a "wow" sound.

"Alright, alright, stop yelling."

Madam Liu couldn't bear it any longer.

So Liu Bai grabbed the grass behind him, helped it unseal its mouth, and then threw it on the ground.

"I can only suffer for the little grass."

"Please sweep up all the fallen leaves in the yard."

Seeing Xiaocao's mouth drooping and wanting to cry loudly, Liu Bai took the initiative and said, "If you say anything else, I will sew your mouth shut. You are not allowed to say any more."

Only then did Xiaocao forcefully hold back her tears and her open mouth.

Then he walked aside and got his own small broom and dustpan.

Liu Bai entered the room. Madam Liu was already sitting at the table, drinking tea. Seeing his appearance, she said casually, "Xiao Cao is pretty good, except that he has too many mouths, a bit mean, and a bit damaged. There is nothing wrong with him."

"Stop bullying it."

Liu Bai nodded repeatedly, and then said casually: "But she said that you are so fierce, mother."

Madam Liu paused for a moment while holding the tea, and then continued, "It really needs to be tempered with its temper."

"Let it clean the kitchen later."

"I think so too."

The mother and son reached a rare agreement, but as I said before... Xiaocao can only suffer a little longer.

At the end, Liu Bai hurriedly asked, "Mom, why did you come out this time? Didn't you say before that I can't go out casually?"

When Madam Liu heard this, she put down the teacup in her hand, and said with an unstoppable smile in her eyes:
"Remember I told you no before you left?"

"The reason why I stayed in this town and couldn't wander around was to reach a certain state."

"It may take a long time, or it may happen in the next second. No one can tell."

Liu Bai's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he immediately asked, "Mother, what level have you reached now?"

Madam Liu nodded first, then shook her head.

"I told you that before because I thought it would be difficult to overcome that hurdle, but now it seems that I... was overthinking it?"

"Or is it overestimated?"

"In short, it's not as difficult as I imagined."

Madam Liu's words were very vague, and Liu Bai didn't quite understand. "Mom, can you be more specific?" "I don't understand what you said."

He scratched his head and spoke. Madam Liu nodded, as if she was organizing her words, thinking about how to say it so that Liu Bai would understand.

After a long while, she replied:
"Now I can not only go out freely by myself, but even the entire Blood Food City is under my control."

Liu Bai: “???”

Seeing that he still didn't quite understand, Madam Liu elaborated again, "Remember the three-headed throne monster that came from the forbidden depths last time?"

"I remember, I remember." Liu Bai nodded vigorously.

"If they come to the Blood Food City again, I can kill them without any action myself." Madam Liu said confidently.

She wasn't bragging, she wasn't the type to brag.

"But it is limited to the territory of Blood Food City. If you leave this Blood Food City, you will have to spend more effort."

Liu Bai's eyes widened.

"So, mother, you are invincible in the Blood Food City?!"

"That's too much to say. Whether you're a human or a ghost, you have to be humble."

Although Madam Liu was being modest, Liu Bai, who was familiar with her, could always see her confidence from her eyes and brows.

"My dear mother!"

Liu Bai was very happy at first, and he became happier and happier. But after he was extremely happy, he thought of something.

"So I just walked through Blood Food City, and when I turned around, I found that the entire Blood Food City had become my mother's world?"

"If you think so, it should be correct?"

Liu Bai... If I don't try harder, my mother will have taken control of the entire Yunzhou before I even leave?

Doesn't that mean I will live under my mother's shadow all my life?

No way... I think my talent is pretty good, after all, I have cheats.

But now it seems that my mother is the one who is cheating.

Mom, you seem a little too strong?

Perhaps she noticed that Liu Bai looked a little strange, so Madam Liu smiled and said, "Why, you are not happy to conquer the world for me?"

"That's certainly not the case."

Liu Bai collapsed on the chair, and then said weakly: "Mom, do you know how I feel now?"

"What?" Madam Liu was puzzled. She really had no idea about this.

"I feel that instead of working so hard out there, I might as well stay at home and be a rich second-generation rich kid."

"Think about it, I have just become invincible in Blood Food City, and you are almost invincible in the world, so I..."

Liu Bai was talking to himself, not noticing that Madam Liu's face had turned cold.

Then, as Liu Bai was talking, he found himself on Madam Liu's lap without knowing how.

then……

"Snapped--"

Liu Bai immediately shut up and then shouted loudly.

Madam Liu frowned, "So you didn't listen to anything I said to you when you went out last time, right?"

"Ah, no, no, the child heard it." He definitely couldn't admit it at this time.

What Liu Bai didn't expect was...

"You dare to think and say this after hearing it?!"

Madam Liu became even angrier and hit him even harder.

Liu Bai didn't dare to speak, and he also found that his physique that gathered the five energies was no match for his mother's beating.

It still hurts, it still hurts!
I just thought that I was already invincible in the Blood Food City, but when I returned home, I would still be spanked.

Liu Bai couldn't bear it to some extent.

But fortunately, no one knew and no one could see it. Just when Liu Bai was thinking this... Xiao Cao poked his head out of the door and said encouragingly:

"Hit me harder, my lady!"

"Tell the young master to bully Xiaocao every day. Beat him up. Humph, beat him up hard!"

Liu Bai turned his head and glanced at the excited Xiaocao, indicating that he would remember this grudge.

Liu Bai didn't say anything. After beating him for a while, Madam Liu calmed down and threw him to the ground.

Finally, Liu Bai stood up straight and said seriously:

"Mom, I'm already grown up, an adult, you can't spank me casually."

After he finished speaking, he shook his body and changed into a ghost body.

In an instant, he, who was originally small in stature, suddenly grew bigger, wearing a black and gold robe and having two horns on his head.

Without the bone wings behind him, he looked like a human being.

Madam Liu first looked at his appearance and was very satisfied, but then she thought about it and something else came to her mind.

"Why? Do you feel like you've grown up and become more powerful?"

"Mother can't cure you?"

In Liu Bai's astonished eyes, his mother, who was obviously not as tall as him, seemed taller than him in the blink of an eye.

No…it’s not that she has become taller, it’s that I have become shorter.

Madam Liu raised her hand slightly and grabbed Liu Bai's ear.

"Okay, okay, you can't hit me, right? Fine, now that I've grown up, I'll give you some face."

After Madam Liu finished speaking, she twisted the hand that was holding Liu Bai's ear and then twisted it.

Suddenly, Liu Bai, a fifth-level ghost, grimaced in pain.

There is no other explanation, it just hurts, it hurts so much that it makes people uncomfortable.

"It hurts, it hurts, mom, please be gentler, gentler, I know I was wrong, I know I was wrong!" Liu Bai begged for mercy quickly.

I have to beg for mercy. If I have an invincible mother, I will be invincible too.

That would only mean a tie with her.

Seeing his painful look, Madam Liu snorted coldly and finally let go.

Liu Bai quickly covered his ears and took a few steps back, and his body became tall again.

The pain of having my ears pulled just now was even worse than the headache I had after the previous series of electric shocks.

Liu Bai rubbed his ears several times before he recovered. Then he said, "Mom, let me tell you, my ghost body seems to be a little magical. The two horns on my head can actually emit electricity."

“And it’s very powerful.”

Liu Bai said this and looked around, but couldn't find anyone to use his skills on.

When he turned around again, he found that his mother had already stood in front of him, and had placed her hands on the two sharp corners on his head.

At this moment, Liu Bai didn't move, and then he felt as if his entire body had been seen naked.

Being seen through and through.

He didn't dare to move until Madam Liu withdrew her hand. Then he looked at her with excitement and a hint of worry.

"Don't worry, it's a good thing, just practice with peace of mind."

Mother's words gave Liu Bai peace of mind.

Since there was no problem, Liu Bai put away his ghost body and transformed into a three-year-old child again.

As for the rest… Madam Liu seemed to be taking out her anger on Liu Bai, but fortunately her mood improved.

Liu Bai went to the kitchen to cook. He sat in the living room for a while, then felt bored. So he went to the door and told Xiaocao to do this and that.

Just thinking about the leaves in the yard, it was something that Madam Liu could clean up with just a thought.

But some things have to be done by someone.

After just a moment's glance, Liu Bai suddenly remembered something. He slapped his forehead, stood up, and shouted, "Mom, come here quickly. I have something urgent to tell you!"

Madam Liu, who was already wearing an apron and cooking, heard his voice and came out again. She frowned slightly and asked, "What's the urgent matter? Why can't you come over and tell me?"

"Yes, I can, but it's too casual to say it in the kitchen."

Liu Bai jumped up from the stairs as he spoke, then took Madam Liu's hand and walked towards the living room.

Xiaocao, who was sweeping the floor, knew what Liu Bai was going to say when she heard his tone.

Xiaocao put down the broom and ran over hurriedly.

"My lady, yes, yes, the young master does have a big secret to tell you."

When Madam Liu heard Xiaocao say the same thing, she returned to the living room suspiciously.

During this period of time, she only occasionally had time to see what Liu Bai was doing. After all, she also had to take care of her own things...

Then, before entering the house, Liu Bai flipped his hand and took out the chessboard of life and death from Xumi. The small copper pumpkin on it stood steadily on the boundary river.

Liu Bai lowered his voice and said as if he was telling a secret: "Mother, let me tell you, my treasure is called the Chessboard of Life and Death..."

Madam Liu, who was a little surprised at first, suddenly straightened up, then thought about it and turned over her hand.

In Liu Bai's astonished eyes, an identical chessboard appeared in Madam Liu's hand.

There is also a small copper pumpkin on top.

"Mother, you..."
