Chapter 58 Cause and Effect

In the following days, Nan Chi took medicine while secretly using his healing ability to treat himself, and soon he was able to get out of bed and walk.

The old woman even happily praised the village doctor at the entrance to the village for his excellent medical skills to the neighbors around her...

Tianlong Galaxy!

The borderland belonging to the Interstellar Federation!

Although the Tianlong Galaxy has the most domineering name, the actual situation has nothing to do with this name.

Poverty, backwardness and chaos are synonymous with this galaxy.

The planet where Nan Chi is currently located is an asteroid belonging to the Draco galaxy.

This planet, located on the outskirts of the Federation, has been ignored for many years due to its backwardness and poverty. Except for some adventurers, people in this universe may not even have heard of its name.

"This is quite backward!" Nan Chi felt powerless to complain after realizing where he was.

She is already poor enough, and now she has ended up in a place that is even poorer than her. How is she supposed to survive?

And as for that old lady, Nan Chi finally understood why this old lady was so kind to him.

When the old woman was young, she also had a husband, a son, a daughter-in-law, and grandchildren.

But due to poverty, in order to make a living, her husband joined a mercenary union. One time, he went on a mission and never came back.

Her son, who was also a member of the mercenary guild, was seriously injured while taking a mission. He became disabled and died within a few years.

The daughter-in-law couldn't bear the blow and ran away with the man, leaving behind only her grandson who was only a few years old.

The husband and his sons died one after another, and the daughter-in-law left her young son behind and did not beat the old man.

She raised her grandson with optimism.

This child is really outstanding. He has good talent. At the age of seven, he was diagnosed with mental talent and was sent to the best local school at a young age.

He successfully obtained a place in the First Military Academy. According to his tutor, this child has a great chance of passing the exam of the First Military Academy.

Such a child is the pride and hope of the whole village.

For the old lady, it was also a matter of honor for her family, as she had finally made it.

Unexpectedly, misfortune befell this poor old man again.

Her grandson disappeared a month ago while on a mercenary mission. When he was found and sent back, there was only a broken corpse.

After seeing the badly damaged body, the always strong and optimistic old woman finally couldn't hold on anymore and collapsed and went crazy!

As for Nan Chi, she picked him up and treated him as her own grandson.

The village chief on the other side was also a man with a sense of justice. Seeing that this crazy old man saved Nan Chi and treated her as his own grandson, he naturally acknowledged her.

After all, in the eyes of the village chief, if Nan Chi becomes her grandson, the old lady will no longer be crazy and there will be someone to take care of her in her old age and see her to the end of her life. It's perfect!

So, he said: Nan Chi is the old lady's grandson, he was found and was seriously injured.

The truth is, after Nan Chi woke up, she saw a photo of the old lady's grandson, and she looked nothing like him...

But the village chief patted his chest and said that he could handle it!

Nan Chi stopped worrying about it. After all, her identity was really easy to find!

After hearing the old man's experience, she sighed.

I am also grateful to the old woman who picked me up from the wild, and feel sad for her experience.

Looking at her mother-in-law walking towards her from afar, she had a simple and kind smile on her face.

Nan Chi looked at the shadow on the ground. When she was teleported here from the Tianqi Galaxy, she had already adjusted her appearance.

Now, with short hair and an androgynous face...

His gaze slowly shifted to his own surging chest.

Her eyes became deep for a moment, and then she pursed her lips. The old Taoist priest often said: Heaven will take care of things, and karma will take its course!

Taoism emphasizes the present life and commitment. At that time, she just regarded it as a philosophy of life and ignored it after listening to it.

She thought simply. After all, her karma in this life was only with the old Taoist priest. She thought very simply that as long as she was under his protection in this life and would take care of him in his old age and see him to the end of his life, that would be enough.

All she could think of was that the cunning old man didn't give her that chance.

He passed away before she was fully grown.

Looking at the old man who was trembling as he walked towards him, Nan Chi sighed and made a decision in his heart.

With a simple smile on his face, he stepped forward and held the old woman's arm. "Grandma, if your legs are not convenient, please stop walking around all the time. What if you fall down?"

"Isn't this looking for you?" The smile on the old woman's face became even brighter. In the past few days since she found her "grandson", her spirits have become better and better, and she looks like she is ten years younger.

"Besides, if someone like me sits in the house all day without moving around, I'll really become a cripple!"

"If you really want to exercise, grandma, I can teach you a set of gymnastics to strengthen your body! I guarantee that you will feel younger the more you do it!" Nan Chi said in a light tone, but with a hint of seriousness.

Please forgive her for not only being single for twenty years, but also for having no experience of getting along with normal elderly people.

In her mind, people like the old Taoist priest are not normal old people at all!

Have you ever seen a normal old man who can walk briskly, go out to cause trouble, and catch a few ghosts?

"By the way, my son, when are you going to take the military academy exam?" the old man asked proudly.

Nan Chi paused with a smile, then smiled nonchalantly and said, "Grandma, you're confused again. Isn't it summer vacation now? I'll be staying in the village with you for a long time! There's still a long time before the exam."

"Oh, look at how confused I am!" The old lady paused and blamed herself repeatedly.

Nan Chi could only smile along.

Sigh! Being a stand-in is pretty tough these days.

Even when you are hurt, you still have to smile!

Nan Chi was a little worried. Although it was the summer vacation time at the Federal Military Academy, what would happen after the summer vacation?

Is she really going to school?

But forget about going to school, and applying to a military academy? Forgive her, maybe she doesn't have that ability.

"My youngest son will definitely look very smart and handsome in his military uniform." The old lady was already imagining the future with a face full of longing.

Nan Chi's breath caught in her throat, and a fake smile formed at the corners of her mouth. She could only shamelessly say, "Of course, your grandson has been outstanding and handsome since he was young. Otherwise, how could he be worthy of being the hope of the entire village?"

"You're being conceited again." The old lady couldn't help laughing.

Nan Chi felt that his skin had become thicker.

Forget it, since she has the school's recommendation quota, she can just force her way in when the time comes.

She just couldn't believe that with her own abilities, she couldn't even get into a military academy!

However, new students would be enrolled in September, and even if she wanted to have the strength to get into the first military academy in the Federation, she would need money.

This family is very poor. When they register, they may not even have the money for the trip and will have to rely on the villagers for help.

Nan Chi couldn't get rid of that face.

Now she is an illegal immigrant and penniless!

Making money has become Nan Chi’s current life goal.

In fact, the old lady has become healthier these days, and it is not an illusion of outsiders.

Instead, Nan Chi used his healing ability on the old lady several times at night while she was asleep.

After being washed by the supernatural power several times, the old lady's chronic illnesses that had accumulated over the years were all cured.

To outsiders, you will look ten years younger.

After returning home, Nan Chi gave the old lady a simple meal and then hurried out again.

This village is not far from the small town. There is a mercenary guild in the town. There is also the Interstellar Federation there, which issues missions in the mercenary guild.

Nan Chi wanted to see if there were any tasks he could take on, and at the same time solve his illegal household registration problem.

The temporary combat computer that Huo Jiu had given her was shattered when the monster exploded.

Also, when she participated in the wilderness live broadcast, the lights that the Minotaur Las gave her on the spaceship were intact, but she has now decided to be the old lady's "grandson."

That optical computer is no longer usable.

Moreover, Huo Jiu has already promised to protect Te Lanxing, so Nan Chi has nothing to worry about now.

Recover from injuries, make money, and apply to military academy...
