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

Chapter 49: The Old Turtle Lying Down [Seeking Follow-up Reading]

"No, I was brought back by my mother. Granny Ma might have stayed in the Yin Meridian to guard it."

Liu Bai didn't lie and told the truth.

After all, Granny Ma really stayed in the Yin Meridian, and she will never leave.

The reason why he asked this question was to test and see if there would be any other changes after he left.

Now it seems most likely not.

Liu Bai guessed that Madam Liu must have appeared in front of the two ancestors, otherwise this matter would not have ended so peacefully.

After that, the two didn't say anything else.

Until Master Ma sent Liu Bai to the door of his home and waited for him to get out of the car, Master Ma took out a piece of bacon from the side.

"Huh? What is this?"

Liu Bai couldn't understand.

Master Ma smiled and said, "This is given to you by Liu Tie's family. You saved their lives, so how could they not give you some reward? Although it's not good, it's the best thing they have for their family."

"Keep it. For people in our line of work, we should get some income after working."

"If there is really nothing, they will give us a few pounds even if it is rotten grain."

Liu Bai then took it and said, "How should I put it...this feeling is quite wonderful."

It’s no wonder that Master Ma would do such a stupid thing, but Liu Bai thought about it again and realized that he didn’t really feel much about doing such a thing.

To be honest, he doesn't think he is a kind person.

The reason for going to Liujiatun this time is to broaden my horizons and hone my skills.

Otherwise, he would rather bully the hairless yellow dog in the town.

After Master Ma left, Liu Bai returned home carrying the bacon, and Madam Liu was there too.

Liu Bai laughed and said, "Mom, we can eat meat tonight."

"..."

We agreed to eat meat at night, and we actually ate meat at night.

Madam Liu cut the bacon that Liu Bai brought back into half, and hung the other half on the beam of the kitchen to be smoked.

The cut half is divided into half for steaming and the other half for stir-frying.

Liu Bai ate until he was full, and then he did a few rounds of boxing in the yard, and then he felt better.

That night, Liu Bai finished packing and lay down on his bed. He looked at Madam Liu who was sitting beside his bed in a daze. He was not sleepy either, so he asked:
"Mom, why do I seem to be growing slower recently? Why can't I grow taller?"

Liu Bai also discovered this, because he has been adding some food every day and taking Yin beads recently.

Logically speaking, I am almost like a boy of eleven or twelve years old.

But I still act like a little kid.

Lady Liu came back to her senses and leaned forward slightly, "Because I don't want you to grow up so fast, okay?"

“Okay…Okay.”

What's wrong with what my mother said?

If so, there must be something wrong with me.

After a while, Liu Bai asked again: "Mother, what is your real name? It can't be Madam Liu."

"What? You don't want to call me mom anymore. You want to call me by my full name?"

Liu Bai: "..."

"No, mom, you can't chat now."

"Well, if you can't chat, just go to sleep." After saying this, Madam Liu stood up and went straight to the basement. The candle went out and silence returned.

Looking at the endless darkness, Liu Bai whispered:
"Good night mother, see you tomorrow."

After saying that, he quietly pulled the quilt higher and buried his head in it.

……

When they arrived underground, Madam Liu took off her human skin and restored her flesh and bloody appearance.

She skillfully propped up the human skin, opened the closet, and placed the human skin between the other two skins.

"In front of Xiaobai, you seem to be wearing human skin most of the time. I told you, this way you won't scare him." The pink skirt human skin muttered.

But Madam Liu ignored her.

Then the human skin of the woman in the red dress opened its mouth and said, "They are almost here."

"Come on, you'll get it sooner or later." Madam Liu responded this time, and very casually, as if she didn't take them seriously at all.

The red skirt human skin continued, "I don't know how many of those old turtles will come... Tsk, they want us to follow them and lie down together. They have been lying down for too long and they want to be toads."

Madam Liu picked up the small pair of scissors beside her and cut the wick of the candle on the candlestick.

"I'm not in the habit of serving others, not even when they're alive, let alone dead."

"Even if it's God... it's the same."

"Hmph, Madam, you are talking nonsense. You were so happy serving the young master... Well, you are wrong, you are wrong. Xiao Cao is wrong."

Madam Liu ignored him and continued, "Those old bastards wouldn't dare to come alone, and then that old dog Si Tian from Wei would definitely come as well. After all, I really pushed him into the shit in Qingzhou that year.

The Qin State's Grand Historian, who is always mumbling nonsense, will probably come too. He hates seeing ghosts like us the most."

As she spoke, she started laughing.

He casually put the scissors back.

"It seems like it's been a while since it's been this lively. Come on, everyone, so we don't have to look for them one by one."

She smiled.

The three human skins in the closet also laughed, and for a moment, the entire underground room was filled with laughter.

The laughter of the Painted Skin Ghost.

Madam Liu lay down on the bed amid the laughter, and Xiaocao stayed at her bedside, muttering softly.

"My lady, you ate an extra bowl of rice tonight."

"My lady, is the bacon that the young master brought back more delicious? I never saw you like it normally."

"My lady, listen, the young master seems to be talking in his sleep."

……

After returning from Liujiatun, Liu Bai spent a few more days in peace.

I was wandering around the town leisurely all day long, but I was so bored that I followed a few kids to chase geese and dogs in the town.

Until he woke up one day, he finished adding the points and looked at the panel.

[Name: Liu Bai]

[Identity: Human]

[Realm: Three Fires]

[Qi and blood: 9.6]

【Spirituality: 9.1】

[Attribute points: 0]

Looking at the blood points and spirituality points on the panel, Liu Bai remembered that when he lit the first fire, the blood points were 3, and when he lit the second fire, the blood points were 6. Normally, he could light the third fire after the blood points reached 9.

But in fact it is not the case.

Does it require the Qi and blood points to exceed ten?
Liu Bai also asked his mother, the Painted Skin Ghost, but she had a weird personality and ignored him.

Liu Bai guessed that she still didn't want to be a ghost walker, no, she didn't even want to be a human being.

Being bored, Liu Bai decided to go and ask Mr. Ma and visit him at his place.

After all, his Ma family farm had "resumption of enrollment" a few days ago, and all the young men who were learning boxing had returned.

There were even two more young men, Qiu Qianhai and Liu Tie, who were the ones who started the fire.

Mr. Ma unanimously declared to the public that the two of them succeeded in starting the fire because of his boxing skills.

For a time, there were countless young men who wanted to learn boxing from him.

The power of Majiazhuangzi also reached a new peak.

Even the small path from Huangliang Town to Majiazhuangzi has been widened by people.

After leaving the town, Liu Bai kept his life fire lit the whole time. Anyway, he was not worried about using too much life fire and damaging his foundation.

After all, the formula given by Madam Liu is really useful.

He skipped along the path through the woods, and if he came across a lone wandering soul, he had to drive it away and scare it away.

After walking a short distance, they ran into Mr. Ma who was driving towards them at the corner of a mountain.

He hurriedly stopped the carriage and glared at him, "Where are you going, kid?!"

Liu Bai stood on a boulder by the road, with his hands on his waist, and asked, "I'm here to look for you. Where are you going again?!"
