Origin System, I have a barren mountain

Although the old lady was old, her mind worked very quickly. When she noticed the clothes that Lord Liu was wearing, she suddenly realized that he was someone who had just arrived in their town.

The two men accompanying Lord Liu noticed that the old lady treated this man, who called himself Lord Liu, very well, and began to suspect that Lord Liu might not be a bad person.

"His arm is all messed up like this, you two young people aren't going to just stand by and watch him die, are you?"

The old lady immediately said something pointed.

Upon seeing the familiar old lady, Cheng Yunmo excitedly jumped around inside the jade pendant, trying to greet her.

She knew the old lady had seen her in modern times and was a very kind old lady. As long as she spoke up for him, Lord Cheng would not be in danger.

Sure enough, after hearing what the old lady had just said, the two looked at each other and decided to release Lord Liu.

Lord Liu's injuries were serious, but he received some basic treatment at the hospital.

If an old lady says something like that now, then naturally one should let go.

The old lady recognized the jade pendant as soon as she received it, and then looked thoughtfully at Lord Liu, who was bandaging his wound.

"The money for medical treatment..."

The two young men couldn't help but ask.

In any case, at most, the two of them would just release the man; they would absolutely not spend money to treat Lord Liu.

The old lady simply took out her phone and paid for Mr. Liu's meal.

The two young men knew that the old woman intended to see things through to the end, and since they figured they wouldn't get anything by staying, they left.

Lord Liu felt embarrassed that an old lady had to take out so much money by herself, as it was quite a lot.

Lord Liu, lying on the hospital bed, looked awkwardly at the old lady and said, "Old lady, I don't have any money to give you, but this silver is all I have. Is that alright?"

He was from ancient times and didn't have modern money.

When the old woman glanced at what was called silver, which was actually not the silver of their ancient history, she realized it was worthless.

"No need. When my benefactor saved me and my granddaughter, he didn't ask me for anything. But you, don't you know what happened here? Why did you go to that remote place?"

Lord Liu was a little confused, not knowing what the old lady meant by that.

Cheng Yunmo also couldn't understand how, in such a short time, the situation in the town had changed so drastically that no one knew what had happened.

"Sigh, it wasn't long ago, but one day, a strange door suddenly opened in the sky, and a lot of modern appliances and furniture fell down from it."

Lord Liu glanced at the jade pendant instinctively, looking at it with a hint of disbelief in his eyes.

Cheng Yunmo was even more surprised; after she became a soul and then traveled through time, this information still shocked her.

"Then, what does this have to do with my injury?" Lord Liu thought for a moment, glanced at the wound on his arm, and asked with some confusion.

"Hey, didn't you notice?"

"They must be fragments of electrical appliances that have developed sentience. These fragments not only attack humans, but they also often hide in the shadows."

When Cheng Yunmo heard the word "like" in the dark, he couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine and look around.

Although the ward was very clean and there were no blind spots, the lights could illuminate any area.

Seeing that Lord Liu's expression was rather unpleasant, the old lady knew that receiving such news was indeed frightening.

"However, of those fallen appliances, only a small portion are known to be sentient; the rest are fine," the old woman said.

However, Lord Liu did not think it was a good idea when he heard this.

“That shouldn’t be the case. The Empress Dowager only obtained the electrical appliances from your dynasty. Why would this happen? I’ve seen quite a few electrical appliances since arriving in the town, and I haven’t noticed anything unusual about them.”

The same appliances changed after just one trip to Xu Guo?

What Lord Liu said made some sense, and Cheng Yunmo thought so too. However, he suddenly saw the old lady get up, throw the phone charger on the ground, and hit it with her shoe!

The shoes he took were none other than Lord Liu's.

Lord Liu's shoes were long, and when he dropped them directly onto the phone charger, he saw that the phone charger had come to life!

Cheng Yunmo was genuinely frightened, staring blankly at the phone charger in the old lady's hand.

"How...how can this person survive?"

Cheng Yunmo asked, stammering.

Lord Liu looked at the old lady with admiration in his eyes, "Old lady, I didn't expect you to be so skilled?"

The old lady breathed a sigh of relief at this moment, looking at the ball of thread.

"I don't know what's wrong with me. At this age, I've seen so many strange and wonderful things. Is Cheng Yunmo in this jade pendant?"

The old lady suddenly pointed to the jade pendant and saw a blurry shadow peering out from within it.

Lord Liu was taken aback, then nodded. "You saw her?"

"Oh, I see. What's wrong with her?"

The old lady still cared about her savior. If it weren't for her, someone her age wouldn't have bothered to save Lord Liu.

Lord Liu looked a little embarrassed; he was somewhat ashamed to reveal the truth.

What could he possibly say? That Lord Cheng almost lost his soul because he was doing it for the Emperor?

When the old lady saw that Lord Liu was unwilling to speak, she knew that Cheng Yunmo's behavior might be related to him.

Lord Liu was a little hungry; his stomach was rumbling.

The old lady turned around and went downstairs to buy food from the hospital cafeteria. When she brought it up, it was an exceptionally lavish meal.

There's sweet and sour pork, shredded pork with garlic sauce, and even stir-fried squid.

Lord Liu was dumbfounded. Why would you buy him such a lavish meal?

"This, this is far too valuable!" Lord Liu was a little embarrassed.

"It's not expensive, just five yuan."

"What?"

Even Cheng Yunmo, inside the jade pendant, couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "How is this possible?"

"It's not surprising. The people here eat food that eventually becomes tasteless and lacks the ability to fill their stomachs. Some people need to make a living and can only live a routine life."

Lord Liu was suspicious, but he ate a few bites of food.

The food was found to be very delicious; there was absolutely nothing that couldn't be eaten.

Cheng Yunmo thought of her modern self, who once took out food from her spatial storage. She tried to open the space and take out some of the ingredients.

The food items that appeared out of nowhere on the bedside table made the old lady subconsciously look at the jade pendant, then glance at the food items again.

Strange things have been happening for more than a day or two, and she can now tell whether the food is safe to eat.

After the old lady took a few bites of one of the tomatoes, she noticed that the previous incident did not happen again.

"Thank you, Miss Cheng."

The old lady's eyes welled up with tears; she seemed very excited to receive such a gift.

Lord Liu was surprised, but since it was something the old lady liked, he didn't feel so guilty, even though he owed Lord Cheng a favor.
