A Man Living in the Countryside Would Fly Up to Heaven at Daytime

"Su Yu was tired of the high life in the city. He quit his job and went back to the countryside. He linked himself to a webcast system focusing on country life. He would livestream his carefree country life every day. Growing flowers, walking his dog, and raising a giant white snake. Life was good. However, as time went by, his audience found him to be an unusual network anchor. Fighting against tigers barehandedly. Pulling up trees hit by lightning. He even livestreamed how he conquered a group of robbers through the fire magic. His audience asked, ""Anchor, be honest with us. Are you cultivating behind our back?"" Su Yu answered, ""Of course not. Cultivation is only an illusion. How could it be real? Have some faith in the science, please!"" The audience went on, ""So, could you explain what happened to your yellow dog and white snake?"" Su Yu looked back. Not until then did he find his yellow dog had suddenly learnt to float in the air. It was right in the air at this moment. As to that white snake, it had started to shed its skin, and dragon horns and limbs were growing out. Su Yu said, ""Okay, believe me. I will find a scientific explanation for this!"" The audience said, ""Forget about that for now. Look at the thunder clouds over your head. Why don't you just admit you are going through a calamity? Don't claim it is a thundershower to lie to us. How come the lightning over your house is golden?"" Su Yu was embarrassed. He did not expect his audience to find his secret out. Since they had found it out, Su Yu would stop pretending. ""That is right. I am a cultivator. I have come clean!"" Then, in the face of the whole world, Su Yu went through the thunder calamity successfully and flew up to heaven at daytime! "

The Water From The Well Is The Souvenir?

Biên tập viên: EndlessFantasy Translation

As he read through the comments in his live stream, Su Yu finally knew who Jun Moxiao was.

Jun Moxiao was none other than the third most popular and richest streamer of Lion Fang. That explained why he was so generous with the gifts.

Before Su Yu could reply, Jun Moxiao asked him a question again, "Oh, right, you said you have souvenirs to give away? Can I have some?"

Su Yu thought of the souvenirs that he had been going to send to Promise but was rejected. He did not expect Jun Moxiao to be interested instead.

He replied, "Souvenirs? Of course, PM me your address, and I'll mail them to you."

"Wow! Handsome, you are so kind! Is everyone in the live stream getting one?"

"Stop dreaming. If everyone is getting one, how much would it cost? I bet only those who sent him gifts could have the souvenirs."

"Okay! But, handsome, what is this souvenir that you are talking about? Peasants like us might not get one though we are also curious about it. Can we have a look?"

Su Yu said, "It's nothing special. It's just the water from the well."

"The water from the well? Are you serious? Dude, stop joking! How can the water from the well be a souvenir?"

"OMG! You are such a joke! The water from the well as a souvenir? What? Is the water from your well sweeter?"

"Water that allures even snakes, you sure are worthy."

"ROLF! Boss Jun must be extremely pissed. I can imagine the expression on his face. He must be like, 'I spent 10K on gifts just to get a few bottles of well water from you?'"

"GG! A few bottles of water that cost 10K? It's even more ridiculous than the bottles of water from the Land of the Rising Sun that cost 1,500 RMB per bottle!"

Jun Moxiao replied, "My, my, I thought it would be some sweet potato or some crops, but it's water from your well?"

Su Yu tried to defend his well. "Don't underestimate the well and the water from it. The water from my well will refresh you, energize you, and prolong your life expectancy if you drink it every day!"

"Damn, son! Prolong my life expectancy? Dude, you are awesome!"

"Drink it every day and you can live longer? Why don't you call it the Well of Immortality?"

"Men should take kidney supplements if they want to protect their kidneys. Take it and you can run faster than Liu Xiang, be taller than Yao Ming. A single bottle will refresh your mind, two bottles will reenergize your body and expel your exhaustion, and three bottles will grant you immortality!"

Su Yu blinked awkwardly at the comments from the viewers. "Okay…Fine."

While it was normal that the viewers did not believe him, he did not need to explain it either.

Then, Su Yu tried to get Jun Moxiao's address but got rejected politely as well. If it was just a few bottles of water from the well, then he did not want it.

Jun Moxiao jokingly said that even his nanny in his house drank Evian all the time. If Su Yu sent him the water from the well, no one would drink it anyway. 

Since Jun Moxiao did not want it, Su Yu did not oversell his water.

He started to tidy up his front yard and then return the tools to his neighbor.

Uncle Zhang had come back as well.

"Uncle Zhang, I'm here to give you back the tools that I borrowed. I wanted some tools to take care of the weeds in my front yard, but no one was home earlier, so I took the tools first," said Su Yu.

"Oh, isn't it Lil' Yu? When did you come back? Why didn't you tell me earlier? I could have told your aunt to cook some specialty dishes to welcome you back. Stay and have dinner with us tonight." Uncle Zhang was rather surprised to see Su Yu.

"Uncle Zhang, thank you for your hospitality, but I think I'll have dinner on my own." Su Yu was rather shy to stay for dinner.

It was then, a middle-aged woman came out from the backyard. It was Aunt Zhang. 

"Oh, Lil' Yu! Look at how you've grown! It's rare for you to come back here, so why not just stay for dinner? It's not like it's more work for me. It's not like you've never come over for dinner when you were younger," Aunt Zhang invited.

Su Yu scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "Uh, okay!"

As Aunt Zhang said, when Su Yu was younger, he would always drop by Uncle Zhang's house for a free meal.

The main reason was that Uncle Zhang had a beautiful daughter, and when Su Yu was young, he liked to play with the girl. Furthermore, Su Yu's house was next to Uncle Zhang, so it was natural for him to drop by frequently.

Since Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang warmly invited him to stay, he decided to stay for dinner.

Aunt Zhang headed to the kitchen to prepare dinner while Uncle Zhang went out to buy some liquor.

Su Yu then continued his stream and talked to his viewers.

"Dude, your Uncle Zhang is such a nice guy! He even invited you to stay for dinner!"

"Yeah! Something like this will never happen in the city. I've never thought of having a meal with my neighbor either."

"I wonder what's on the menu. I'm jealous because I'm still working overtime!"

Su Yu answered, "I remember when I was younger, I used to drop by Uncle Zhang's house for meals. Aunt Zhang can really cook. She's probably the best cook I know. I'll show you what I mean later."

Su Yu adjusted his tripod and put his phone on it.

A while later, Aunt Zhang came out with several aromatic dishes.

"Lil' Yu, why didn't you tell us that you are coming back? I didn't prepare anything special for the occasion. I guess you have to make do with the normal stuff, but I hope you don't mind," Aunt Zhang said.

"It's fine, Aunt Zhang. It's more than enough. I always missed your cooking when I was still working in Beijing," Su Yu said.

Aunt Zhang was being humble. Su Yu looked at the dishes served on the table and saw that there were a total of five dishes and a bowl of soup, including an appetizer. It was more than enough to be considered a feast.

"What the heck? This is 'normal stuff'? The dude's right. Aunt Zhang can really cook! Looking at the dishes makes me hungry"!

"I still haven't taken my dinner! Damn it! Why am I in this live stream?"

"I have to say that I'm drooling like a waterfall! The dishes sure look delicious. I bet they smell fantastic too!"

Promise typed, "Not bad indeed. I'm already feeling hungry. I guess I'll order a grilled lamb for dinner later!"

Jun Moxiao typed, "Hungry +1. I'll tell my chef to roast a cow then!"

"Promise and Boss Jun, please spare us! One of you is having lamb whereas the other is having a whole cow! You guys are torturing peasants like us!"

"Hahaha! I've been insulted by two ultra-rich guys today!"

The atmosphere in the live stream got lively.

Su Yu had a glance at his live stream popularity. His stream had reached 50K viewers without him realizing it, and his followers had increased to 20K as well.

Soon, Uncle Zhang came back with the liquor.

In Su Yu's hometown, everyone in his village never ordered ready-made beer or alcoholic beverages since the liquor they all drank was brewed within the village. Xiantai Village's homebrewed liquor was considered a high-quality liquor drink. In Su Yu's opinion, it could rival the famous Maotai. 

Unfortunately, no one further developed or expanded Xiantai Village's own brew, and the lack of cultural background was one of the reasons why it was barely sold outside the village.

Dinner started right after Uncle Zhang came back.

Before they dug in, Su Yu told Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang about the stream.

Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang had always been generous, so they did not mind Su Yu streaming his dinner. Instead, they were curious when they heard about the live stream.

Uncle Zhang even move closer to the camera and greeted the viewers. He even tapped the phone camera and saw his own reflection on the screen.

"Lil' Yu, so this the stream that you are talking about? You came back from Beijing just to do this?"

Su Yu answered, "That's right, Uncle Zhang. The live streaming industry is booming. Compared to the stressful and lonely life in Beijing, I wanted to try something back here."

Uncle Zhang nodded. "I don't know what you young people are doing nowadays, but if you think you can make it work, just go for it."

Uncle Zhang then noticed the comments from the stream. A lot of the viewers even greeted him.

"Uncle Zhang!"

"Hello, Uncle Zhang!"

Uncle Zhang nodded back at them. "Hello, folks!"

Aunt Zhang noticed her husband playing with the phone, so she said in an annoyed tone, "Okay, stop playing with Lil' Yu's phone. You've almost replaced him in the live stream. Sit down and eat. The dishes are getting cold."
