Chapter 6 Inner Demons
Chapter 6 Inner Demons
"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and go home to change your clothes and take a proper shower!"
Zhou Yue'e was puzzled when she saw her son standing blankly at the intersection.
"Mom, you should take Ping'an and the others back first."
Sun Ran put the little guy in her arms on the ground, patted his head, and then looked at Zhou Yue'e, pointing forward: "I'll go see Grandpa first."
"Oh, that's fine too. You should go and see him since you haven't been back for so long."
Zhou Yue'e nodded, bounced the little girl in her arms, and took Sun Ping's hand with her free hand: "Remember to come back quickly, otherwise the food will get cold."
"Don't worry, Mom, it won't be long."
The group said goodbye at the intersection. After watching his mother turn around and walk away with the two little ones, Sun Ran turned around and looked at a small bungalow not far away.
[Treasure Pavilion]...
Three large green characters were hanging high on the roof, particularly eye-catching in the evening darkness.
"In the morning it was a well that turned into a spiritual vein, and now it's a supermarket that's turned into a treasure trove. This kind of cheat code is truly unparalleled."
He pursed his lips, muttered something, and then walked towards the house.
A few minutes later...
【Zhonghua Supermarket】...
squeak~
Standing in front of the only small supermarket in the village, Sun Ran looked around, then pushed the door open and went inside...
"Hey, Xiao Ran's here! Just finished working in the fields?"
Hearing the noise, an elderly man behind the counter, who was engrossed in looking at his phone, looked up and said with a smile.
The old man had his silver hair neatly combed, and his face was full of wrinkles, making him look over seventy years old, but he was in good spirits.
[Supreme Elder]
Sun Ran looked at the large green characters above his head, her expression quite complicated: "Well, Grandpa, you've been doing well lately, haven't you? What are you up to?"
Just as I thought, the Supreme Elder is indeed my grandfather!
But what exactly is this inner demon invasion?
As he thought about it, he walked over and curiously leaned his head forward...
Wow, those legs are so white... no, I mean, that dance is really good!
Snapped!
Before he could even get a good look at what the young lady looked like, or whether the door frame next to him was crooked, Sun Zhonghua quickly pressed the power button to turn off his phone.
"Haha, I accidentally slipped my hand when I greeted you!"
The old man, seeing his grandson's awkward smile, quickly stood up and warmly greeted him, "By the way, Ranran, have you had dinner yet?"
"How about I get you some bread to tide you over?"
"Hehe... so Grandpa, you just accidentally dropped your hand?"
Sun Ran chuckled but didn't reply. Instead, he raised his hand and pressed down on his phone.
"It's okay, this streamer is actually quite pretty, I'll follow her and take a closer look..."
Snapped!
Sun Zhonghua quickly grabbed his grandson's hand and said, "You little brat, instead of studying properly, why are you looking at these things!"
"Hmph, Grandpa, you're feeling guilty, aren't you!"
"Impossible! I haven't done anything wrong, so what's there to feel guilty about!"
"Then let me see if you actually followed that female anchor!"
Why would I pay attention to her for no reason?
"You didn't tip me, did you?"
"Impossible! Your grandma manages all the money, where would I get money for tips!"
"Oh, then how about I tell Grandma and have her check your phone?"
Sun Zhonghua held his phone, watching his grandson, who was grinning and glaring at him.
You little brat, I spoiled you rotten when you were a kid!
"Are you going to let go or not?!"
"No!"
"you!"
Sun Zhonghua gritted his teeth, raised his hand and stretched out...
"Good grandson, let go right now, I'll delete that streamer in a bit, but don't tell your grandma, okay?"
He reached out and pulled two large red bills from the drawer, stuffing them into Sun Ran's hand and pleading.
They looked so pitiful.
"Hmph, I'll have to see you delete it first!"
Sun Ran unceremoniously snatched the banknotes with his other hand and said.
My grandpa is great in every way except he's a bit of a womanizer—well, the kind who's all talk and no action…
I heard that he was a well-known heartthrob in the surrounding villages when he was young.
Even now, many elderly women are willing to travel several miles of mountain road just to talk to him a little longer and come here specifically to buy things.
However, it was all in vain...
Grandma has him completely under her thumb!
"Fine, fine, I'll delete it!"
Sun Zhonghua opened his phone with a sullen expression, while Sun Ran chuckled beside him.
As the old man raised his hand and pressed the unfollow button...
[Mission complete, inner demons defeated...]
[Items in the Treasure Trove have been reset...]
[Randomly selected basic item: Rejuvenation Powder]
[Randomly selected basic item: Cleansing Dew]
[Sect Reputation +100]
Ok? !
Although he had somewhat anticipated it beforehand, Sun Ran still couldn't hold back when he actually saw the mission notification.
If even a live-streaming host can become a source of inner demons, then this cheat code must be a bit flawed!
Hmm... But then again, it doesn't seem like it's entirely wrong.
But what about these primary products?
Speechless, Sun Ran stuffed the two banknotes in his hand into his pocket, turned around, and then stared blankly at the supermarket shelf.
【Rejuvenating Powder】, 【Clear Spirit Dew】
He blinked, walked to the shelf, and reached out his hand...
【Rejuvenating Powder】
It can quickly restore your energy after taking it.
【Cleansing Dew】
Applying it to wounds can cure all poisons and can also be used to drive away low-level monsters.
……
Sun Ran's eyes twitched as he looked at the thing in his hand.
The description looks plausible, but isn't this just spicy strips and Tiger Balm?
Drive away low-level monsters?
So mosquitoes are low-level monsters, huh?
Suddenly, holding the spicy snack and medicated oil in his hand, he felt a tickle in his throat and didn't know how to complain.
After a long while, he finally let out a long sigh of relief.
This cheat code may be blind, but you can't really say it's useless, after all, the spiritual spring water was already tested this morning.
Let's give it a try first.
With a sizzle, he tore open the packaging of the spicy snack, picked up a piece, and put it in his mouth.
wheeeeeeeeeeeee...
He chewed and swallowed, and in no time the whole bag of spicy strips was gone.
With a gulp, he swallowed the last bite of spicy snack into his stomach...
Hiss hiss~
Sun Ran opened his mouth and raised his hand to fan the air around his mouth.
Grandpa, where did he get this stuff? It's way too spicy!
No wonder there was a whole box of spicy snacks piled up on the shelf earlier. Who would buy something this spicy in a village?
This is eastern Zhejiang, not eastern Sichuan!
Ok? !
After making a couple of complaints, Sun Ran suddenly felt that something was wrong.
First, it felt as if a warm current surged from his stomach, and then flowed to his limbs and bones.
Soon he felt warm all over.
A few minutes later...
"Damn, it actually works!"
Sun Ran stood there, her eyes wide open.
Before eating this bag of spicy strips, he was sore all over.
My thighs, buttocks, waist, and back hurt everywhere.
But now?
All right!
My whole body felt relaxed and refreshed, as if I hadn't done any farm work all day!
This spicy snack... no, this rejuvenating powder is just too amazing!
Sun Ran, not believing in bad luck, jumped twice more, and hey, he felt completely relaxed!
"What are you doing messing around in the shop, you brat?"
He was having a good time when Sun Zhonghua walked over with an unfriendly expression.
He was forced to unfollow the streamer, which was fine since he only watched it when he had nothing else to do.
That two hundred yuan is nothing, it's my grandson anyway.
It's only a matter of time.
But the problem is that now this brat has something on me, which is like a ticking time bomb.
What if the old woman finds out...
The old man looked his grandson up and down, wondering how to make Sun Ran shut up.
"Hehe, I just wanted to buy some things, didn't I?"
Sun Ran chuckled and replied.
"Just tell me what you want to buy, and I'll get it for you!"
Sun Zhonghua said irritably, "Take your things and remember this: don't tell your grandma about what happened today!"
Alright~
Sun Ran chuckled: "Then I'll take 20 flower pots, ten glass jars with airtight lids, and labels, measuring cups, plastic buckets..."
"Oh, and we also need to get some seeds—scallions, cilantro, spinach, and other short-growing varieties!"
"Damn it, you little brat, you've come here to move house?"
Seeing his grandson counting on his fingers as if reciting a familiar story, Sun Zhonghua's eyes widened.
You little brat, are you here reciting the menu?!
