Chapter 585: Father and Son Chat After a Long Visit
And then?" Lin Xiuqi asked suspiciously.
"And then what?"
And then ...... Why do you say that my life is extraordinary? Do I have any tokens on me that can prove this, or are there some great people who ask you to be orphans? ”
"Nothing!"
This time Lin Xiuqi was really stunned, didn't he have it?
Mother Lin said calmly: "It was the early spring of thirty-two years ago, and your father and I were going through a difficult period in our lives......
Lin Xiuqi suddenly remembered Huang Baiquan's words, maybe it was the time when his parents' biological son, that is, his elder brother, died.
Mother Lin naturally didn't know that Lin Xiuqi already knew about it, and she continued: "Your father and I traveled around for a distraction. I happened to be in Honolulu at the time......"
"You're so extravagant! I went there thirty years ago......
"Shut up!
"Good!"
"You also know that there are almost no four seasons in Honolulu, and one day your dad and I couldn't sleep, so we got up early and walked on the beach, when we suddenly noticed a baby floating on the sea......"
"Are you sure it's not a peach?"
Mother Lin glared at him, Lin Xiuqi instantly shut up, and she continued: "The strange thing is that although it was March, the temperature was not low, but the baby was covered with ice. ”
"Freeze? Isn't that freezing to death?"
"We thought the same thing, but when we picked up the baby, the ice melted instantly. ”
"That baby is me?"
"Yes, it's you! If only the ice was probably not bizarre, at that time, you saw the two of us, not crying or fussing, and that kind of look was not what a baby should look like. ”
"Why don't I remember anything?"
"It's also strange that when you were young, you were very smart, but you didn't expect to be more and more stupid as you grew up, and in the end, you were no different from everyone else. ”
"Mom, I don't understand what's so special at all, according to you, I'm getting stupid, I should be getting more and more stupid. ”
"Less poor mouth!"
Mother Lin knew that Lin Xiuqi would talk nonsense casually in order to ease the atmosphere, and she had to say that being so troubled by her son made her mood much easier.
Seeing that the second elder showed a slightly relieved expression, Lin Xiuqi slowly put away his smile and said, "Dad, Mom, I have indeed started to cultivate, and ...... There may also be a lot of danger. This time, your poisoning should have something to do with me. ”
When the second elder heard this, he frowned slightly, but there was no trace of surprise or blame in his eyes.
"Those two people just now were for me to go to their clan to cultivate, but it might be more dangerous for me to go there. Because I have something special in me, they are interested, but now ...... I think I should still go. ”
Father Lin hurriedly said: "You don't have to worry about us, we are already old and we won't live long, don't delay yourself because of us." ”
Lin Mu said lightly: "Just because of this little thing, you are going to throw yourself into the net?"
"Mom, don't I ...... too"
"Don't think about us, we don't want to watch our son die!"
"It's okay if you don't go, then I can only ask other monks to take care of you on your behalf. ”
"Xiao Qi, where are you going?"
"I don't go anywhere, but I have to deal with some things on a regular basis, and I can't be at home all day. Of course, the places I go are also places you know. ”
"Okay, you don't have to worry about this matter!" Lin Mu said casually.
I saw her take out an old-fashioned straight mobile phone from the cabinet next to the bed, and Father Lin's face was a little ugly when he saw the phone.
In Lin Xiuqi's puzzled gaze, Lin Mu turned on her mobile phone and dialed a call.
"Hey, it's me, I'm going back! ”
After speaking, Lin Mu immediately hung up the phone.
"Mom, you're ......"
"Don't ask! you'll find out in a moment...... I'm still a little dizzy, so you guys go out first. ”
Mother Lin turned over to the bed and lay on her side, Father Lin got out of bed and motioned for Lin Xiuqi to go out with him.
The father and son came to Lin Xiuqi's room, the room was not big, Lin Xiuqi was sitting on the bed, and Lin's father was sitting on the stool.
Father Lin touched the study table beside him, revealing a nostalgic and sad look, and this expression only lasted for a moment before disappearing.
"Xiao Qi, what your mother said is true? Are there really those immortals?"
"Hmm...... It's not as exaggerated as my mother said, but there is, of course, I don't know much about it, maybe there are really very powerful people. ”
"Oh, I see!"
Father Lin showed a nostalgic look, the corners of his mouth hooked up a faint smile, and said, "Now that I think about it, some things are indeed a little unusual. You know what? Growing up, you've been average in every way. ”
"Dad, look at what you said, it's all ordinary, what's abnormal!"
"No, it's because it's so ordinary, it's not normal. ”
Lin Xiuqi thought to himself, no matter how it sounds, it sounds like he is hurting me!
Father Lin continued: "Ordinary people, no! Almost everyone has what they are good at and what they are not good at, just like I like to collect stones, so I became a geologist, but my personality is a little weak, I dare not do many things, and I dare not say many things. Like your mother, there is no ...... Ahem...... But you don't have anything you're particularly good at. ”
"Dad! ”
"No, I mean there's nothing you're not good at, you seem to be able to grasp something, but it's not very prominent. ”
"Isn't this just an ordinary person!"
"Well, I can't tell, but it feels a little strange. ”
"Dad, you're tired too, go to bed and rest for a while!"
"No, I'm not tired! We haven't talked like this for a long time, and I want to talk to you a little longer. ”
"Okay, you can say it. ”
"People say that parents are their children's first teachers, it's not unreasonable, when I was young, your mother often handled cases outside, and I occasionally went on business trips, but in comparison, I took you a little more, but I didn't expect that after a long time, your personality is a little like me, not brave enough. Of course, maybe it's our fault too, when we first named you, your mother and I didn't want you to be a rich and noble person, just be safe. Others say that men should cultivate themselves, Qi family, govern the country, and level the world, your mother and I don't ask too much, as long as you can achieve self-cultivation and Qi family, that's why I gave you this name. ”
Lin Xiuqi thought to himself, it turns out that my name is another version of Lin Pingfan.
This time, Lin Xiuqi did not interrupt his father, he listened to his father quietly, sometimes reminiscing, sometimes nagging, all of which were past experiences and trivial memories.
I don't know why, looking at the change in his father's expression when he told the past, Lin Xiuqi felt sad for a while, maybe it was because the second elder concealed his life experience, and many times he was afraid that he would leak his mouth, so he would reduce the time for small talk, and now that the truth is revealed, he can finally chat at will.
The father and son talked a lot, and they sat for several hours, and it was the first time that Lin Xiuqi listened to his father talk about his work when he was young.
It turned out that my father was a close disciple of a famous geologist, who had been studying abroad for many years, and was extremely interested in ancient ruins, especially those related to religion.
Also because of work, once, he came into contact with a mysterious event, several colleagues died mysteriously, and even the local aborigines hunted them, and it was on that occasion that his father met his mother.
At that time, the mother was still a rookie who had just entered the workplace, and was specially sent to protect them, the two were of the same age, and they had the same surname, with a natural sense of closeness.
It sounds simple, but there are too many details to describe in detail.
Lin Xiuqi was going to take the opportunity to ask what happened to his dead brother, and when his father finished speaking, he said, "Dad, Mom just said that before you picked me up, you were going through a painful period, ......?"
"Dangdang!"
At this moment, there was a knock on the door, Lin Xiuqi's spiritual sense spread, and he found that there were several people standing outside the door, and the person at the head was an old man in his sixties and seventies, although he was an old man, he looked very young.
Father Lin heard the knock on the door, sighed heavily, and said, "Xiao Qi, you go and open the door!"
Lin Xiuqi got up and walked out of the room, opened the door, and saw this old man with his own eyes, and felt that this person was even more extraordinary.
The old man has a clear silhouette, deep eyes, neatly combed white hair, and even the beard on his face is staggered, which is obviously the result of a stylist's design, not to mention this handmade top-quality suit.
No matter who it is, when you first see this person, you will feel that this person is not simple.
"Who are you looking for?"
"Are you...... Lin Xiuqi?"
"Yes, I am, you are ......"
"I'm your uncle!"
"Uncle?"
Lin Xiuqi was a little puzzled, when did he have an extra uncle, and at this time he realized that he didn't seem to know anything about his parents' family, and for so many years, he had never seen any relatives come and go.
Of course, it was never boring, because my mother liked to walk around the neighborhood, which was more lively than walking around relatives.
"Little Five, you're here!"
"Big sister!"
When the old man saw Mother Lin, his eyes were full of tears, and he quickly walked up to the other party and held her hand tightly.
Lin Xiuqi thought to himself, why did this uncle enter the house and not know how to change his shoes!
