From the time travel, I became extraordinary

Chapter 4 Going Home
Although it is impossible to be sure about the abilities of the lame old man mentioned by Tong Gang, in Jiang Yao's opinion, this man is obviously much more reliable than Old Lady Dong or the fairy lady in order to solve his problem.

His own troubles were related to his life and property, so he naturally took it very seriously.

"As for the matter of the lame old man, I just happened to hear others talk about it, and I didn't pay much attention to it. How much can I know about him?"

Scratching the back of his head, Tong Gang looked a little embarrassed and chuckled: "Brother Yao, you are really interested in this person. I will ask someone tomorrow."

"Is that so? Okay then!" Jiang Yao nodded.

Then he added: "You should know where I live. I have been at home these days. After you find out any information about that person, you can go directly to my house to find me."

"Okay, that's no problem!" Tong Gang responded with a grin.

In addition to being classmates, the two have always had a good relationship and often hang out together.

It was only in recent days, after Jiang Yao traveled through time and occupied this body, that he spent less time with Tong Gang and the others.

With such a friendship between them, there is naturally no need for them to be polite to each other.

After chatting with Tong Gangbingzai and a few others for a while, Jiang Yao did not stay any longer. He said hello to them, picked up the plastic bag containing fishing gear, and walked quickly towards his home.

In their village, the villagers' houses are built densely.

The houses of dozens of households in a group are basically built together.

In this day and age, buildings are still very rare in the village. As Jiang Yao walked along the way, most of the houses he saw were red brick and tile houses.

Among the brick houses, Jiang Yao's old wooden house seems a bit out of place.

There's nothing we can do. Who told him his family is poor?
Four or five years ago, the original body's father fell from a tree while chopping it down, and his head hit a sharp-edged stone.

By the time he was found, he was gone.

Without the able-bodied labor force, his mother was the only one left at home, so the family only grew some vegetables, and the rest of the land was left to others to cultivate.

On weekdays, his mother would go out to sell vegetables on a cart.

He goes out before dawn and earns only a few dollars a day. He is really exhausted.

As for Jiang Yao himself, when his father was still alive, his academic performance was pretty good, but since his father's unexpected death, his academic performance has plummeted.

After dropping out of junior high school, he stayed idle at home for a while. Later, his mother used her connections to send him to a township machinery factory under the county town as an apprentice.

I have learned lathe operation for nearly a year and have done a lot of work, but I am still working for nothing. Not only do I not get paid a penny, but I also have to pay for my living expenses every month.

More than half a year ago, Jiang Yao, who never saw any money, simply picked up the bucket and left home.

Of course, these are all the original body's experiences, but Jiang Yao, who has received all of the original body's memories, will also feel the same when he recalls these.

In his current situation, it can be said that he traveled through time, but in fact, it was two different souls merging together.

Did the original body have a strange memory in its mind? Or did the person from the 21st century occupy this body?

Jiang Yao himself actually didn't understand this clearly.

He has all the memories of his original self from childhood to adulthood, as well as the complete life experience of the one who was sent away by a gunshot.

It's just that his current body is dominated by the personality created by the latter.

It is for this reason that he firmly believes that he has traveled through time and space, rather than his original body merging its memories into his own.

When I got back home, it was already past eleven o'clock in the evening.

The house was dark and my mother Yuan Xiuhua had been asleep for a long time.

In the past, when Jiang Yao returned home in the middle of the night, his mother would get up and scold him.

Once, twice, three times...

After such incidents happened so many times, Yuan Xiuhua had already gotten used to it. Besides, she knew that Jiang Yao went out at night recently to go fishing by the river, which was much better than him hanging out with some dubious people on the street, wasn't it?

Jiang Yao turned on the light and washed up quietly to avoid waking up his mother. Then he returned to his room and lay down on the bed.

"According to the prompts on the system panel, the accident will happen when I go out in five days."

"But this is just the normal development of things. If I stay at home for a few more days, will I still go out and get hit by a car?"

"Or, if I don't stay at home and go out for a walk tomorrow, will something else unexpected happen to me?"

……

The lights were turned off and the room was dark.

Jiang Yao was lying in bed, but he still didn't feel sleepy.

Thoughts kept appearing in his mind, and he recalled almost all the various assumptions and possibilities.

It’s a pity that the light curtain panel he had remained the same as before, without any change at all.

According to normal logic, if he had avoided this so-called evil spirit calamity, he should have received some unknown rewards.

But now, since there was no reaction on the panel, it meant that all the possibilities he had imagined were of no use at all. Now he was still in this evil spirit calamity.

"Damn system, can't you give me some hints?"

"It was when I first encountered the evil spirit calamity that I was reminded that the panel at the back was completely bare. There was nothing on it at all."

"It can neither help me get rich nor make me transcend the mundane world. This is what you call a system?"

"Don't tell me about getting rewards after surviving the disaster. Let's make a deal and change the way we play. How about you give me a deep blue bonus?"

……

After daydreaming for a while, Jiang Yao began to study his golden finger.

It’s a pity that there are only a few simple words on the panel.

Regarding his own system, Jiang Yao sometimes pretended to be pitiful, sometimes tried to negotiate with it in a nice way, and sometimes cursed at it.

That thing seemed to be just a dead object, and there was no reaction at all.

I don’t know when, Jiang Yao finally fell into a deep sleep.

When he woke up, it was already noon.

His mother Yuan Xiuhua had already pulled the cart to the street, leaving him alone in the empty house.

After eating a bowl of noodles to fill his stomach, Jiang Yao didn't go anywhere and stayed at home.

At around two or three o'clock in the afternoon, Tong Gang appeared in front of his house riding a bicycle.

"Brother Yao, are you there?" After parking the car in the open space in front of the house, Tong Gang shouted in his hoarse voice.

"Any news about the matter we talked about yesterday?" Jiang Yao, who was sitting in the main room studying his system, was delighted and hurried out to greet him.

"Yeah!" Tong Gang nodded and walked into the main room.

After finding a chair to sit down, he continued, "At noon, I asked someone about it."

"The lame old man's surname is Xu. He is from Mawan Village and used to be a carpenter."

"If you want to find him, when you get to Ma Wan, just ask someone about Carpenter Xu."
