The retired man went into the wrong book, and his beautiful husband loved him
Chapter 72 Liu Anyu meets his parents
As the Lin residence emptied out, the entire place instantly became unusually quiet, as if the once vibrant and lively mansion had suddenly been drained of its vitality, leaving only a dead silence. A gust of wind blew past, bringing a feeling of desolation to the entire courtyard.
Although Housekeeper Luo and the others said they didn't want anything, they actually took away quite a few things. The most outrageous thing was that Aunt Zhao from the kitchen even took away the chopping block, claiming she was so used to it that she couldn't bear to put it down.
Lin Qiqi had already chosen a place for Lin Xiuyuan to live after he returned, and it would be finalized after Liu Anyu met his parents.
As for Butler Luo and others, they were arranged to take paid leave, which made them very happy.
Mr. Liu's beads had been on display for three days, and the couple was filled with anxiety.
When Mrs. Liu learned that she would have the chance to see her daughter again, she was in a very good mood and her physical condition improved significantly. She was able to get out of bed and move around the next day.
She accompanied Mr. Liu and knelt in the ancestral hall, not daring to slack off in the slightest, for fear that she would lose the opportunity to meet Liu Anyu because her heart was not pious enough.
Finally, it was the night of the third day. The whole world was immersed in silence, with only faint moonlight shining on the earth.
"Sister, I'm a little nervous." Liu Anyu said anxiously, her voice trembling. They were about to set off, but she couldn't even take a single step.
She was filled with worry, fearing that her mother's body could not withstand such a shock. Although the news came that her mother's health had improved, she still couldn't help but worry about something unexpected happening.
Lin Qiqi gently comforted him, "Just follow what I said, step by step. Everything will be fine." She patted Liu Anyu's head gently and encouraged him.
Liu Anyu took a deep breath, tried to calm himself down, then nodded to show that he understood.
After a period of practice, she has now mastered the techniques of soul concentration and invisibility, and can freely travel between the yin and yang worlds.
Moreover, Lin Qiqi also specially helped her to block the ghost energy and yin energy around her body, so that even mortals would not be harmed.
Liu Anyu tightly held the things Lin Qiqi asked her to bring, silently praying in her heart that everything would go well.
With a flash of light, she instantly appeared outside the Liu family ancestral hall. Mr. Liu and Mrs. Liu were kneeling devoutly on their mats, eyes closed, silently praying. Their backs were tense, as if they were carrying a tremendous pressure.
Liu Anyu stood there quietly, her eyes fixed on her parents' backs. Her eyes couldn't help but feel sore, and if she could still have tears, they would have welled up in her eyes at this moment.
Following Lin Qiqi's instructions, Liu Anyu used the sound transmission technique to tell Mr. Liu: "Dad, my daughter is back. Dad, please go outside the ancestral hall first. Don't disturb mother."
Mr. Liu was praying with his eyes closed when he suddenly heard Liu Anyu's voice and opened his eyes abruptly. He glanced at his wife, who was still praying with her eyes closed, then gently stood up and said to Mrs. Liu, "I'll go see if An'an's favorite snack is ready. I'll be right back."
After saying this, he patted his wife's shoulder gently and walked out of the ancestral hall.
There was no one outside the ancestral hall, and Mr. Liu even began to wonder if he had just been hallucinating.
But at this moment, a familiar figure slowly walked out from behind the pillar on the right.
Mr. Liu's vision blurred instantly, tears welling up in his eyes. That was his An An! Mr. Liu bit his lips tightly, fearing that crying out loud would disturb his wife in the ancestral hall.
Liu Anyu looked at her father who was so excited that he could hardly control himself. The sadness in her heart surged like a surging river, constantly attacking her reason.
But she knew that now was not the time to act emotionally, she had to remain calm and strong. She took a deep breath, closed her eyes, calmed down a little, and then smiled at Mr. Liu and said, "Daddy, An An is back."
Liu Anyu took heavy steps, walking towards Mr. Liu step by step.
This distance is so short, but at this moment it seems like an insurmountable gap between life and death.
Mr. Liu was in tears as he stared at his daughter, his eyes full of reluctance and sadness.
Unlike the ghosts in legends, Liu Anyu didn't float around. Her face was still as rosy as a peach blossom, without a trace of life. If there were no shadows on the ground, Mr. Liu would hardly believe that his daughter had turned into a ghost.
Liu Anyu seemed to understand what her father was thinking. She gently reached out her hand and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of Liu Yuanwai's eyes.
Mr. Liu was shocked again because he could truly feel his daughter's touch. Although those hands were icy cold, they were real.
"My time to condense my body is limited now, so let's not waste our precious time holding hands and looking into each other's tears." There was a hint of playfulness in Liu Anyu's words, trying to ease the pain in Mr. Liu's heart.
Then, she took out a pill from her bosom and whispered to Mr. Liu, "Have mother take this Heart-Clearing Pill, so her body won't be able to withstand such great joy and sorrow. Violent emotional fluctuations are extremely draining on the mind."
Mr. Liu held the pill tightly in his hand, took a deep breath, and said with a determined and eager look: "Okay! I'll go in right away and ask your mother to take it. You must not leave."
Liu Anyu smiled and nodded, hugging his old father who had lost a lot of weight. "It took a lot of effort for me to come back to see you. I won't leave until the time comes. I don't want to waste even a quarter of an hour. Dad, go quickly."
Mr. Liu rushed into the ancestral hall, almost jumping for air with excitement. In his haste, he nearly tripped over the threshold, but he paid no heed and continued stumbling towards his wife.
When he finally came to his wife, he handed the pill to her with trembling hands, his voice filled with uncontrollable excitement: "Eat...eat...eat, and you will be able to see An An."
Mr. Liu finally caught his breath and finished his words. When Madam Liu heard that taking the pill would allow her to see her daughter, a strong desire surged within her. She took the pill without hesitation. The pill melted in her mouth, instantly merging with her body. The moment the pill entered her stomach, Madam Liu felt a miraculous change, as if a fog had lifted from her mind. Her heart, once heavy as a stone, felt lighter, and her thoughts gradually became clearer.
Mrs. Liu's eyes were full of eagerness and anticipation. She stared at Mr. Liu closely, her voice trembling: "Is An An here? Where is she?" She couldn't wait to see her daughter.
Before Mr. Liu could answer, a girl's voice like a yellow oriole in a valley came from the door: "Mother, An An is here."
The couple turned around at the same time and saw their daughter, whom they had missed so much, approaching the doorway. Mrs. Liu's heart ached. God knew how tormented she had been these past few days. The daughter she had cherished since childhood had passed away at the most beautiful age. She hated her so much and was heartbroken. Countless times she wanted to join her daughter, but seeing her husband, who was just as heartbroken as she was, she couldn't bear it. She couldn't bear to think that the murderer hadn't been found yet. And then there was the responsibility she felt as a child...
She didn't dare to think about what would happen to her elderly parents, who had lost their beloved granddaughter and then their daughter. All sorts of emotions weighed on her, finally leading her to bed. She actually began to want to escape from it all by lying in bed.
I never thought that I would have the chance to see my daughter again.
Mrs. Liu was so excited that she could hardly contain herself, tears welling up in her eyes. She reached out her hand tremblingly, wanting to touch her daughter's face, but she was afraid it was just an illusion. An An quickly walked to her mother, hugged her tightly, and whispered, "Mom, I'm back, don't cry."
Mrs. Liu felt her daughter's cold embrace, and the pain and longing in her heart instantly burst into uncontrollable wails.
Mr. Liu could no longer hold back his tears. He walked forward, hugged his wife and daughter in his arms, and cried with them.
"Okay, okay. Don't cry, don't cry. An An doesn't have much time, don't waste it on tears." Mr. Liu was the first to control his emotions, gently patting his wife's back to comfort her.
Liu Anyu quickly took out a handkerchief and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her mother's eyes. She gently agreed, "Yes, mother, it's not just this time. We will have many opportunities to meet in the future."
"Really? Are you trying to fool me?" Mrs. Liu looked at her daughter with tears in her eyes, her eyes full of reluctance and worry.
Liu Anyu smiled and nodded, then answered firmly, "I'm not kidding Mom. Master Jiuyun accepted me as his disciple and allowed me to practice as a ghost. As long as I practice hard, in a few years, I'll be able to come back and visit Dad and Mom often."
In fact, these were all Lin Qiqi's instructions in advance, to push all the problems onto Jiuyun to avoid unnecessary trouble. Therefore, Liu Anyu naturally did not dare to reveal his true abilities.
Liu Anyu gently pulled his parents to sit on a futon and began to recount his adventures. From being hunted by bandits to meeting Master Jiuyun, becoming his disciple and gaining the opportunity to cultivate. However, Liu Anyu chose to conceal the fact that Lin Xiner had hired a killer.
Lin Qiqi had warned her that there was something strange about Lin Xin'er, something very sinister. If her parents learned the truth, they would definitely take action against her, regardless of the consequences. They might be unable to do anything to her because of her strangeness, and end up hurting themselves instead. It would be better to keep it a secret until Lin Xin'er was completely destroyed before revealing the truth to them.
"That killer organization has already captured many people. The Qingfeng Tower case exposed them. So soon, my daughter's revenge can be avenged." Liu Anyu comforted the two according to Lin Qiqi's instructions.
If Qu Yizhi had heard these words, he would have been furious. He just made a mistake, and they blamed everything on him. They were throwing all the dirty water on them, right? It was endless. He deserved the bad luck!
An hour passed quickly, and Liu Anyu could clearly feel her steps starting to feel unsteady, no longer feeling as grounded as they had been at the beginning. She knew the time for her body to condense was approaching, and it was time to go back.
"Daddy, Mommy, my time is up. I should go back." Liu Anyu was reluctant to leave, but her parents were mortal after all. Even if Lin Qiqi covered her up well, she was so cold that they would be affected over time.
When they heard their daughter was leaving, the Liu couple turned into little crybabies again. Liu Anyu quickly comforted them: "She will come back in the future, but don't cry anymore. If you keep crying, the ancestral tablets will be flooded."
After saying that, she took out two bottles of pills given by Lin Qiqi, gave the green one to her father and the brown one to her mother.
"This is a tonic pill given by the master. Take one a day, and Daddy and Mom's old illnesses will gradually disappear, and their health will gradually improve. Once they're better, I can stay longer next time." Liu Anyu said, holding their hands. "Also, the master revealed a little secret."
Liu Anyu whispered quietly in his mother's ear, "The master said that mother is destined to have another pair of children. Mother, you must take care of your body and take them home as soon as possible."
When Mrs. Liu heard this, she looked at Liu Anyu with an angry look. How could an unmarried girl say such a thing?
"Moreover," Liu Anyu said seriously, "Master has calculated that they will be born with merits, which will be of great help to both the Liu family and me, a ghost cultivator practicing outside. So if they really come, mother must treat them well."
Madam Liu's mind was slightly moved. Is there really still a chance? She damaged her foundation when she gave birth to Liu Anyu, so she had not had any children for more than ten years. Now that she is older, she has the chance to be a mother again?
Liu Anyu didn't try to coax her. Those two bottles of pills were specially prepared by Lin Qiqi for them. Madam Liu's portion also contained a rare pregnancy pill, which not only aided in pregnancy, but also made the child born exceptionally intelligent and in better health than the average child.
After Liu Anyu finished explaining, his body gradually became lighter and more transparent.
She smiled and said goodbye to her parents: "Dad, Mom, take care, wait for An An to come back."
Mrs. Liu cried and fell into Mr. Liu's arms, but this time her heart was no longer filled with depression. The sapling of hope had been planted, and she wanted to live well for her daughter and the children who would appear in the future.
Liu Anyu floated beside his parents and looked at them quietly for a while. Not long after, the two of them supported each other and walked out of the ancestral hall.
Mr. Liu did not waste a moment. He placed an altar in the east, lit three incense sticks, chanted Yun Qing's name, and kowtowed three times respectfully.
Yunqing Courtyard. Lin Qiqi, who was waiting for Liu Anyu to return, suddenly saw golden rays of light flying into the bedroom from the window, circling around Yunqing beside her.
After spinning for an unknown number of times, the golden light penetrated into Yun Qing's body.
Yun Qing only felt a warm current suddenly flowing into his body, like the feeling of the spring sun shining on his body.
Lin Qiqi used her spiritual sense to explore Yun Qing's Heavenly Soul. It had indeed been repaired. Although the area of repair was small, it was enough to prove that the incense and merits of this world could nourish Yun Qing's spirit. Lin Qiqi was extremely happy.
