Lin Yu's life of traveling through time

The salvation ceremony was held in the main hall of Chunyang Palace, amidst curling incense and flickering candlelight. Taoist Master Yiyang, dressed in a Taoist robe and holding a magical instrument, chanted something.

As Taoist Master Yi Yang chanted, a peaceful and harmonious atmosphere spread. Lin Yu seemed to see the figures of his parents, who were smiling, their eyes full of love and satisfaction.

Lin Yu touched his chest and knelt down gently: Little Lin Yu, did you see it?

Lin Yu's tears rolled down his cheeks, and he whispered, "Dad, Mom, I miss you so much."

At this moment, the illusory figure seemed to move, reaching out to Lin Yu, wanting to touch his face. But in the end, it just turned into a wisp of smoke and flew into the white vortex behind.

Lin Yu stared blankly at the disappearing figure, feeling both reluctant and relieved. Taoist Yi Yang came forward and gently helped Lin Yu up.

"Xiao Yu, they have rested in peace and gone to where they should go. You must carry their love with you and live well." Taoist Yi Yang said.

Lin Yu nodded and thought to himself that I am not Little Lin Yu after all.

After placing the couple's ashes, Lin Yu returned to his room and sat there for a long time.

"Lao Liu, come out!"

"Host, is there something wrong?" Lao Liu asked very cautiously. He was really afraid of the host's torture methods. After all, he had wasted the host's time.

"Xiao Linyu is still in this body, right?"

"Uh... sort of! He's destined to die young, and you're his only hope."

Lin Yu's eyes flashed: "So can I leave now and let the original little Lin Yu come back to live."

Lao Liu was at a loss. Why did the host act so impulsively? "Host, this... I've never done this before!"

"Then you can try now! What his parents want is for Xiao Linyu to live a good life. What's the point of me replacing him? He is still so young and has many possibilities in the future. It's not like his soul is in a hurry to reincarnate. You also said there is a glimmer of hope. I have extended it. His fate has long been changed, right? Then my leaving will not have any impact, right?"

"You...you are sophistry."

"Just tell me if it is true or not! If it is, we will leave tomorrow."

"Hey! Fine, you're the boss, I'll listen to you."

Lin Yu smiled with an ambiguous tone, "Oh? I'm the boss! Listen to me? Okay, you must remember to listen to me."

Lao Liu shuddered, then gave a dry smile and agreed. He thought the host must have remembered something.

The next day, Lin Yu took the initiative to find Taoist Yi Yang, and the two sat face to face on both sides of the tea table.

"Master Yiyang, thank you for your care these past few days."

"It seems that you have recovered your mood. Then you can go to school in town tomorrow."

"Uh... there's no rush to go to school. I want to tell you something." Lin Yu said, scratching his head.

Seeing how serious he was, Taoist Yi Yang sat up straight and said, "I'm all ears."

Lin Yu stroked the teacup in his hand and said, "You must have wondered how a person with supernatural powers could fall into the hands of human traffickers and be sold into the mountains. Actually, I am not Xiao Linyu himself. To be more precise, I am an alien soul that has taken over Xiao Linyu's body."

Taoist Yi Yang stared at Lin Yu with sharp eyes: "A glimmer of hope?"

Lin Yu was stunned for a moment and then laughed: "So the Taoist priest knew! If I hadn't come, Xiao Linyu would have been beaten to death by Liu Tiezhu that night, or he would not have made it to the next day. After all, Xiao Linyu's internal injuries were very serious. This is probably the glimmer of hope you are talking about!"

"I see. Then tell me what your plan is?" Taoist Yi Yang said with a relaxed expression and a sip of tea.

"I thought the Taoist priest was going to beat me to death! I didn't expect you to be so calm."

"Oh, my friend is not a bad person. I will not confuse right with wrong for people who have merits." Taoist Master Yi Yang handed over a cup of tea.

"I want to leave. He's only eight years old and just starting out in life. His parents probably want him to live a good life. It's not appropriate for me to take his place. So, Taoist Priest, are you still willing to raise this child?"

"Don't I already have one? It's unnecessary to ask."

"Haha... then I have to thank you very much, Taoist priest. It would be great if you could accept him as your disciple."

"Hey? My friend is always good at hitting the snake with a stick, so just give me a disciple!"

"Of course not. You also said you would take me as your apprentice. It would be the same for him."

"Okay, what about you? Where are you going?"

"In three thousand worlds, I don't know where the next stop is!"

"Then I wish you a safe journey and a quick success."

"Thank you!"

Lin Yu felt relieved to have someone he could trust. He raised his teacup to Taoist Yi Yang and said, "Tea instead of wine. Lin Yu is leaving."

After finishing his tea, Xiao Linyu lay on the tea table. Across from him was Taoist Yi Yang, holding up his teacup. It was a long time before he heard a gentle voice on the wind: "Take care."

Then he picked up the sleeping little Lin Yu and went back to the room. When he entered the room, he saw a small package containing many pills and a Taoist technique that he had bought from the world of Journey to the West.

Taoist Yi Yang remained silent for a long time, staring at the rising moon and expressing his gratitude from afar.

On the other side, Lin Yu, who returned to the system space early, felt a little lost.

After taking a sip of strong liquor, Lin Yu regained his energy and spirit, staring at Lao Liu with a bright smile.

This made Lao Liu very nervous and he huddled in the corner, not daring to move.

"Sixth Brother! Do you think we should settle all the things you did to me in the past? Hmm? Otherwise, I'd feel sorry for myself and look like a saint!"

"Host, you already said you don't care about it anymore, why would you bring up the past?" Lao Liu said with his head lowered, looking at his fingers.

"But I'm a dignified God, and you've tricked me into becoming a maggot or a dung beetle. Don't I have any dignity left?"

Lao Liu raised his head suddenly: "No, you...you remember?"

"Thanks to you, I have some impression of it."

"Well, you should know that I was also kidnapped by your colleagues and forcibly bound to you. I feel wronged and aggrieved."

Lin Yu crossed his legs and said, "You're not going to hide it anymore?"

"I dare not. You gods are so cruel and unreasonable. He said he was your friend. You fell into the mortal world, and had no time to experience the truth of life for a few taels of silver every day. You couldn't go home for a long time, so he kidnapped my system which was almost at the doorstep, and forcibly extracted all my energy. I couldn't go home if I didn't agree, and finally I became scrap metal, so I was bound to you. So I didn't lie to you when I said I needed energy and time to go home." Lao Liu burst into tears when he thought about it.

"Then why did you trick me?"

"You're his friend. I can't take revenge on him, but can't I get some sense of existence from you? Besides, I was just playing a prank, not going too far. Compared to kidnapping me to work, I have a conscience."

Lin Yu curled his lips: "You are bullying the weak and afraid of the strong. Then why didn't you tell me?"

"He won't let me tell you unless you remember it yourself."

"Okay! So what's your situation now?"

"I'm afraid you'll punish me. After all, we've been together for so long, so please don't hold it against me, okay?"

Lin Yu faked a smile, thinking that Lao Liu was very dedicated when he was broken into pieces. Although he was threatened, it was harmless. Besides, it was indeed a bit unfair to forcibly kidnap him to help him travel through time.

"Okay, let's talk it over now. I hope we can have a happy cooperation in the future."

Only then did Lao Liu start to walk around relaxedly: "Hey! Happy cooperation, host."
