I have been going around in circles for more than 20 years, but now I don’t want to go around in circles anymore, so I simply asked my doubts without any concealment.
My mother raised her head slightly and looked at me steadily with her eyes. At this moment, the door was pushed open. I turned around and saw Lao Yu walking in. He walked straight to the table and sat down.
I don’t know why, but I always felt that he was a little reserved in front of my mother. He glanced at me and said to my mother beside him:
"Xiaoyu is already so old, and he has also embarked on the path of Yin Yang Ghost Path. I think there is no need to hide it from him. Huo Qiansuan told me before that if Xiaoyu can help you and Liu Lanlan survive this disaster, then
Tell him the truth and let him choose his own future path."
I was stunned for a moment. What does this mean? Do Master and Lao Yutou know something?
"Why…"
My mother let out a long sigh, stood up and said:
"That's it, now that it's over, just think that all the hard work I've done in the past twenty years has been in vain. Xiaoyu, just follow me..."
After saying that, my mother walked out of the house and walked to another room in the yard. It was the family warehouse, where food and groceries were usually stored. Old Yu and I looked at each other and hurriedly followed.
There was a huge lock hanging on the door knocker of the warehouse. It seemed that the lock was changed after I left. After opening the door lock, the three of us walked into the warehouse...
I was stunned as soon as I stepped into the warehouse. It was very clean and tidy. There was no food or groceries at all. It was completely different from what I remembered!
Inside, there is a peach red offering table placed against the wall. On the offering table, there are all kinds of incense candles, incense burners and tributes.
In the middle of the altar table is a black and white photo. The person in the photo has an almost identical face to mine. It is my father Lin Tiangang!
In front of the deceased photo is a tablet with the following words:
"My late husband Lin Gong tabooed the memorial tablet of Lord Tiangang"
My mother previously set up a memorial tablet for my father in my name. That tablet is still in my rental house in Jiangcheng. The one in front of me was built by my mother in my wife's name, so the content on the tablet will be
different.
Mom stood in front of the altar table, looking at me with burning eyes...
I calmed down, stepped forward and offered three sticks of incense to my father, and then kowtowed three times respectfully.
After getting up, I unexpectedly found that Lao Yutou behind me was also kneeling in front of the altar table, looking sad and weeping...
I was stunned,
"Lao Yutou, this is my dad, not your dad, why are you still kneeling down?"
As he said that, I stepped forward to help him.
"Xiaoyu..."
Mom suddenly called me,
"No need, the person Lao Yu is kneeling on is not your father."
"What do you mean?" I looked at my mother confused.
My mother did not answer me directly, but made an astonishing move. She walked to the altar table and turned my father's tablet back and forth, with the front facing backward and the back facing forward.
I was very puzzled. According to the old principles in the village, this is very unlucky...
Just when I was about to ask why, I suddenly saw words engraved on the back of the tablet!
I opened my eyes wide and took a closer look. My whole body was numb immediately, and I was frozen in place as if struck by lightning! I felt all the hairs on my body stand on end...
"This...this is..."
I stammered for a long time and couldn't speak, but I couldn't help but stumbled to the altar table and stared at the simple words on it,
"The Immortal Lord's Tablet"
I looked back at Lao Yu, whose face was filled with sadness, and at my mother who was holding back tears, and then I thought of Master’s kind face. The scenes related to Master Xian in the past few months were like a movie.
My mind slowly passed by, and my heart seemed to stop beating at this moment...
"Xiaoyu..."
My mother called my name, but didn't say anything.
"What...what does this mean?"
"Could it be that...I...my father is the Immortal Master?"
Mom nodded,
"Yes, your father Lin Tiangang is the Immortal Master."
My body trembled violently, and I turned my head slightly to look at my father's photo. Looking at the face that was almost exactly the same as mine, I couldn't say a word...
My mother walked up to me, took out the Lin brand from my neck with red eyes, and said softly:
"This Lin-branded tablet and the wooden box notes were all left by him. Back then, your father took many mages and servants of ghosts and demons to deal with the ghost bandits without telling me that I was pregnant with Liujia. He seemed to know that he would never come back.
So I left the Lin character plaque and the wooden box note specially for the child in my belly, that is, you..."
"After learning the news of his death, I was devastated and couldn't live my life. Fortunately, you, Aunt Liu, were with me at that time. She took me to hide in the remote Liujia Village anonymously. It was a kind of escape from the world. I was
The only belief in my life is you, but it also makes me determined never to let you step into this circle of yin and yang ghosts..."
Having said this, my mother turned to look at Lao Yu,
"Over the years, many of your father's old subordinates have come to look for me overtly or covertly, including your master Huo Qiansuan. I have always avoided them because I wanted to say goodbye to the past and live a normal life.
It’s a pity...things are unpredictable..."
"This time, you, Aunt Liu, and the people of Liujia Village were brutally murdered because of what your father did back then. I don't know if something like this will happen again in the future, let alone what if you were my son.
After inheriting your father's inheritance, have you really thought about whether your future wife and children will suffer the same suffering?"
Mom looked at me with trembling eyes, and Lao Yu stared at me with a complicated expression...
But at this time, I was still immersed in the complex emotions that Master Xian was my father. It was like a ball of paste had been poured into my head, and I completely lost the ability to think...
Fortunately, my mother and Lao Yutou did not press forward step by step, but waited quietly on the side.
"No!"
It took me a long time to say this word, and both of them were stunned, especially Lao Yutou, who looked at me with eyes full of nervousness and expectation.
"It's true that I didn't think about it that much. I also admit that when I first became a disciple, it was just because I wanted to make a living, but it's different now..."
"What's the difference?" Mom asked quickly.
I took a deep breath and remembered what Master once said to me, so I said:
"I guard the human world for the sake of ghosts. I go up to the poor blue and fall into the underworld. I kill demons and demons without dying. If the hell is not empty, I will not ascend to the sky!"
