What bad intentions can an alchemist have?

Chapter 4

"grandmother!"

When the little girl saw the old man, she immediately rushed towards him happily.

The old man opened his hands and held the little girl in his arms: "Tell grandma, will you be good at home today?"

"Momo is so good. Just now, my brother told me a story about a crow drinking water! The little crow is so smart that he will fill the small stones into the unsatisfied water bottle and then drink the water!"

The little girl presented the treasure to the old man.

The old man rubbed the little girl's head and looked up at Su Mu.

Su Mu returned a gentle smile.

"Besides telling stories, did Momo do anything else today?"

The old man spoke gently, his eyes full of doting and kindness.

"Yes, the bad guy grandma mentioned came to the house again at noon. She also wanted to hit Momo, and she almost pushed Momo down!"

The little girl raised her nose and said very dissatisfied: "But my brother is so powerful. He knocked down the bad guy in one go."

The old man's brows wrinkled suddenly, and he immediately looked up at Su Mu.

"It's not that exaggerated. I just explained the truth to her. Although the person was a little confused, she could still understand the logic!"

Su Mu knew what the old man was worried about. The middle-aged woman's son was a member of the [Federal Guard], and the old man and Momo would definitely not dare to offend him.

Su Mu offended her today, and the old man must be afraid of revenge from the middle-aged woman's son.

"Okay Momo, stop pestering grandma. Grandma is tired after a long day. Let grandma wash her hands and eat!"

After Su Mu finished speaking, he said another sentence to Momo.

A smile appeared on Momo's face again: "Grandma, the rice cooked by my brother today is delicious. Momo just ate two bowls. Grandma will eat more soon, it's really delicious!"

The old man looked at Su Mu again. Obviously, she did not expect that Su Mu could cook.

"Okay, grandma will eat more soon!"

Afterwards, Grandma Tu rubbed the little girl's head and went to wash her hands.

Later, during the meal, Su Mu briefly talked about what happened at noon.

Granny Tu listened silently. After Su Mu finished speaking, she raised her head and said, "Do you want to repay my kindness for rescuing you by protecting us?"

"I can't repay the kindness of saving my life. I can only repay the favor within my ability!" Su Mu did not deny Granny Tu's statement.

Granny Tu sighed: "But have you ever thought that your way of repaying kindness may not be a good thing for Momo and I! You can protect us once or twice, but sooner or later you will leave here, etc. After you leave, what will Momo and I do?"

Su Mu felt that the old man in front of him was very wise and lived a very transparent life. He was not blinded by any appearance at all.

"Then I will solve all the problems before I leave. I will try not to leave any trouble for you and Momo!"

Su Mu said this.

The old man looked at Su Mu and said after a long time: "I don't know whether I should believe you or not. I can't tell whether what you said is true. When I carried you back, I never thought about asking you to repay me with anything. I don’t dare to have any expectations now. I just hope that you can take note of my kindness in bringing you back and don’t leave me and the girl with more trouble than we can bear.”

After the old man said this, he got up and went to wash the dishes.

Su Mu could understand the old man's thoughts.

She has long lost her expectations and hopes for life, and the only belief that supports her tenacious survival is to raise Momo.

No matter how well you say it, no matter how beautiful the blueprint you draw is.

The old man did not dare to have extravagant hopes, because she was afraid that her current extravagant hopes would eventually turn into disappointment.

And in this process, the spirit that has been supporting her to survive will also dissipate.

Su Mu could understand the old man's thoughts.

Therefore, he did not insist on making a promise to the old man to make her believe in him.

Taking practical actions is the only way to truly reassure the elderly. "Mother-in-law, can you lend me some of the things you picked up outside?"

Su Mu spoke to Granny Tu who was washing dishes.

"They are all waste and not worth much. You can use them however you want!"

The old man spoke without looking back.

I didn't ask Su Mu what he did with the waste.

After washing the dishes and chopsticks, the old man carried Momo back to the house.

Early tomorrow morning, she will go to scavenge early.

The waste in the inner city, central city and sky city will be transported out once a day at [-] am, [-] noon and [-] pm.

For people in inner cities, central cities and sky cities, those may be waste.

But for the lower class people in the outer city, there are many items that are still valuable.

Therefore, scavengers like Granny Tu were born.

……

At nine o'clock in the evening, Granny Tu had already gone back to the room with Momo.

In the outer city of [Yongzhou Base City], ordinary people have no nightlife at all.

Even household appliances are only available to relatively wealthy families.

[You have completed the disassembly of mechanical parts and gained 16 proficiency points. 】

[You have completed an assembly of mechanical parts and gained 12 proficiency points. 】

[You have completed an analysis of mechanical residual parts and gained 15 proficiency points. 】

Su Mu sat on a small horse and kept disassembling some of the broken mechanical parts that Granny Tu had picked up and then putting them back together again.

During this process, information continued to emerge in the log column of Su Mu's career template.

Not bad!

It’s proficiency, not experience!
In the game [Zhutian], there is no such setting as [experience points].

Everything in the [Zhutian] game is 100% simulated reality.

Whether it is the improvement of strength or the cultivation of abilities and secret techniques.

It all depends on the players themselves to ponder and study.

There is no such thing as acquiring a skill book and accumulating enough general experience points.

It takes one second to reach the full level of a skill or secret technique.

Because the career system of the game [Zhutian] is completely open.

In [Zhutian], there is no fixed career advancement system.

It only gives a general outline of four professional frameworks: [Martial Arts], [Super Power], [Alienation] and [Mechanical].

As for how far it will go in the end and what career template it will evolve into, it all depends on the players themselves.

Just like there are no two identical leaves in this world.

In the [Zhutian] game, there are no two identical professions.

Even if two people experience exactly the same things and make exactly the same choices, their final career direction and choices will have different branches based on their different personalities.

The reason for all this lies in the [Professional Knowledge Module]!
