Sitting and forgetting longevity

Chapter 1919 Wishes Fulfilled

Liu Qinghuan had already made up her mind that she and Old Man Liu would move to the inn today.

Now that he has money, he can change his clothes, food, housing and transportation. He can also buy medicine for Old Man Liu, or use his spiritual power to unblock his meridians.

In a few days, he and those Shaoyang Sect disciples would go to the Immortal Curtain Gathering. On the way, they would go deep into the Hengwu Mountains and could collect some spiritual herbs.

Even if you can't find any spiritual herbs, you can still exchange a few basic cultivation techniques or mental cultivation methods that he remembers for a lot of spirit stones.

Then he could take Old Man Liu and leave Lin'an City ahead of time, avoiding war and natural disasters, and find a beautiful place to cultivate in peace, while waiting for the Wenshi Sect to recruit disciples.

Liu Qinghuan had made good plans for the future. He immediately took the old man to the inn to settle in, and then went out to buy clothes and food.

When a poor person suddenly becomes rich, especially in such an eye-catching way, it's inevitable that they will be targeted.

Liu Qinghuan easily dealt with both former beggar neighbors and ignorant thugs.

That night, Old Man Liu fell asleep with a smile on his face. He took a good bath, wore clean clothes, and was covered with a thick, warm quilt.

He held Liu Qinghuan's small hand, and the wrinkles on his face smoothed out.

"I never imagined that after a life of hardship, I would be able to enjoy the blessings of my grandchildren on my deathbed. I have no regrets in this life!"

Liu Qinghuan felt that these words were unlucky, so she said, "What do you mean by dying? You have a lot of good fortune ahead of you, go to sleep!"

Old Man Liu, however, refused to let go of his hand, and kept nagging:

"It's a pity your unfortunate parents were so unlucky, otherwise they wouldn't have abandoned you. The first time I saw you in your swaddling clothes, I knew you had extraordinary talent and were not to be underestimated. Later, when I taught you to read, you were indeed very intelligent, learning everything you were taught..."

Liu Qinghuan listened patiently to his rambling. As for his parents, he had never met them and had never thought of looking for them.

As he spoke, two blushes appeared on Old Man Liu's face, and he looked extremely excited.

"Qinghuan, you are now an immortal, and your future is boundless. You will surely become a person of high status..."

Liu Qinghuan couldn't help but chuckle. Only in the eyes of mortals could a Qi Refining stage cultivator be considered an unapproachable immortal.

He looked at Old Man Liu and suddenly felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

After thinking it over, Liu Qinghuan assumed that she was just being paranoid, so she comforted the old man and put him to sleep before returning to the next room.

With the money, he would no longer deprive himself of his place. He booked two rooms so that they would not disturb each other, as he would continue his meditation and cultivation at night.

But in the middle of the night, a soft "hiccup" sound came from the other side of the wall, subtle yet as loud as thunder.

Liu Qinghuan snapped out of her cultivation and suddenly realized that she was covered in a cold sweat.

He hurried out the door, went to the next room, and rushed to the bed.

"Grandpa, grandpa!"

Old Liu was lying on his back on the bed, a slight smile on his lips, his chest no longer rising and falling.

Liu Qinghuan was filled with doubt and shock: Why?!

Everything was clearly going well, he had arranged everything, and Old Man Liu's illness was just rheumatism and a mild cold, so how could he have suddenly died?

Even in the real world, Old Man Liu died a few months later because his condition worsened and he had no money for treatment.

Like a sudden awakening, Liu Qinghuan snapped back to reality!
"What am I doing?"

"How could I be so confused? How could I forget that this is a calamity!"

"None of it is real, hahaha, that's so silly, it's not real!"

Liu Qinghuan burst into laughter. In that instant, he saw the cracks in his own soul.

Old Man Liu did not die from illness, but from the obsession in his heart.

Because he couldn't let go of that tiny bit of fantasy, trying to make up for past regrets.

Perhaps this is human nature: we always dwell on those doubts, so when given a second chance, we try our best to make amends. Before we know it, we become addicted, trapped in a beautiful, illusory dream.

But he forgot that he was not being reborn, but rather undergoing a tribulation.

A tribulation that requires relinquishing worldly desires, severing all emotional ties, and breaking free from karma.

Looking at the old man Liu lying on the bed with his eyes closed as if in peaceful sleep, the last trace of grief in Liu Qinghuan's eyes gradually faded.

He opened the Book of Cause and Effect expressionlessly, and a burst of white light burst forth from the pages, engulfing everything.

Liu Qinghuan opened her eyes. It was pitch black all around, and hot air rushed in from all directions.

He lay on the dusty ground, a hand groping at his chest.

He didn't move. After a moment, the man cursed under his breath and walked away.

He remembered now, they were fleeing famine, and he almost starved to death on this very road back then.

So it was all in vain. He still had to face this cruel world alone and do everything he could to become stronger.

Born insignificant, like a speck of dust in the mortal world, drifting in the wind.

Time, once gone, can never be returned; you can neither grasp it nor hold onto it.

Liu Qinghuan walks along the path of her past life, no longer trying to change anything, but examining each of her important choices.

……

"Is the Heavenly Tribulation over?" Youxuan asked in confusion, looking up at the sky.

The sky was still covered by clouds of calamity, and lightning bolts snaked behind the clouds, but there had been no thunder for a while.

But that place had changed, as if it were separated from the outside world by an invisible barrier, making people even more afraid to approach.

"No," Yue Qian said. "The Heavenly Tribulation is still far from over, and besides, Master is undergoing two Heavenly Tribulations at the same time, so it's impossible for it to end so quickly."

Turning my head, I saw Fu Bao carrying a small stone monkey on his shoulder, running from afar, his voice preceding him.

"Oh no! I've discovered a one-eyed giant monster spying on my master as he undergoes his tribulation!"

Yueqin's expression turned serious: "Where?"

Fu Bao pointed in the direction, and You Yan immediately rubbed his hands together, eager to get started.

"I'm going to kill it!"

“Let’s go together!” Yueyin called out, “The only trouble with undergoing tribulation in the wild is that there will be some unscrupulous guys hiding nearby. If you succeed in the tribulation, it will be fine, but if you fail, they will take advantage of your serious injuries to kill you and steal your treasures.”

"There will definitely be more than just one one-eyed giant soon; other monsters will arrive. We need to finish this quickly!"

"What if we can't win?" Fu Bao lacked confidence in his abilities.

"If you can't beat them, just run!" Youyan said decisively. "Once Master has finished his tribulation, he can take care of them with a flick of his finger."

As they were talking, a sudden loud bang startled the three of them.

The stone monkey Huitian pointed to the sky and cried out loudly.

This guy is the kind of person who thrives on chaos. Yue Yan shook her head helplessly and looked over there.

In the distance, a large hole appeared in the sky, and a silvery substance, resembling both water and clouds, poured down from it.

Like the Milky Way hanging in the sky, it is extremely magnificent.

"Wow, it looks like there's a fight!" Fu Bao exclaimed, and upon closer inspection, his expression changed drastically.

Because one side of the fight was a handsome male cultivator, while the other side was a Time Beast.
