After Zhou Qing arrived here, he was stunned when he saw the plaque. He secretly said to An Lang, "It's been several years, why is it still the An Mansion?"

"And I see signs of life here, so it's not uninhabited."

An Lang was not too sure either, and said:

"I don't know either. Liang Hai and his men didn't hold back at all. They even spared the servants in my house."

"And this is my home. It wasn't built later."

"How strange."

Zhou Qing was a little confused.

All the members of the An family died, at the hands of the devil, and no one survived.

In a situation like this, the government will definitely take away the house after handling the matter.

There is no one in the An family anymore, so it is impossible for them to leave the house to their relatives...

In such an environment, nothing good can happen.

Even if it was sold to someone else later, it would be impossible for the plaque of An Mansion to still be hanging on it.

Besides, who would dare to buy a house here when such a horrific murder happened? Who would dare to live here?

Even if the government is willing to hand it over to the An family's relatives, it is still unclear whether those relatives dare to come.

"I'll knock on the door and see."

Zhou Qing walked up the steps and knocked on the door of the An Mansion. After a while, the door opened and a servant showed his face.

Seeing Zhou Qing's extraordinary bearing and gorgeous clothes, he did not dare to look down on him and asked:

"Sir, what do you want?"

"I'm here to look for someone. Is there a young lady named An Lang in your house?"

Since there are people living here and the plaque of An Mansion is still hanging, he can just ask directly.

What if it really has something to do with An Lang?

The servant shook his head, "My young lady is not called that."

"Your family is the only one with the surname An in Cangyuan County, right?"

"right."

"That's strange. Seven years ago, I met a girl, and we parted ways later. She said her name was An Lang, and she lived in Cangyuan County, and lived here. I followed what she said to find her, so how could I be wrong?"

"Seven years ago?"

The servant was startled and said quickly:

"Sir, wait a moment. I will go and report to the master and his wife."

The servant disappeared and Zhou Qing waited quietly.

His words left plenty of room for maneuver and he could move forward and backward freely.

As for why he didn't sneak into the An family secretly...

There's nothing wrong with him, but he would do such shady things no matter what.

It would be fine if he was planning to do something bad, but the problem is that he is not here to do anything bad.

If discovered, trouble will arise even if nothing is wrong.

After a while, footsteps sounded quickly, and then the door opened again, and several people appeared in front of Zhou Qing.

The two people in the middle are a man and a woman, both of whom are good-looking. Judging from the expressions of the servants around them, these two people must be the masters of the house.

The woman said, "Sir, are you here to look for my little sister?"

Zhou Qing was stunned, then quietly asked An Lang.

"Is this your sister?"

Didn’t you say your whole family was killed?

"My sister...ah!" An Lang exclaimed.

"I remembered that I did have an older sister, but she left home when I was little and didn't come back for about ten years. I had forgotten about it."

Ten years before An Lang's death, she was still a child. It is normal that she has a shallow impression of him after not seeing him for ten years.

When Zhou Qing and An Lang first met, she explained her origins by saying that her entire family had been murdered. She certainly would not specifically mention a sister whom she hadn't seen for ten years.

In such an environment, not returning for ten years is basically equivalent to death.

An Lang said: "Sir, don't expose me first, just communicate with her according to your ideas."

Suddenly there is an extra ten years. No, to An Lang now, it is a sister he hasn’t seen for sixteen years. An Lang is a little confused and doesn’t know how to deal with it.

Zhou Qing knew what was going on, so he replied:

"I'm here to find An Lang."

The woman looked at Zhou Qing with complicated eyes.

"My lord, you are late."

"Let's go in first." The man next to him said:

"This gentleman, please."

Zhou Qing followed them in. On the way, An Lang whispered to him again.

"Sir, I recalled it and I think I remember something about my sister."

After achieving success in spiritual practice, some things that you had previously forgotten can be dug up, as long as you have heard or seen them in the past.

You have forgotten, but your soul is recorded.

"My sister seemed to have met a young man at the time, and they fell in love with each other."

“…”

Zhou Qing was speechless. Could it be that the An family disagreed and the two of them eloped?

"My parents were also very pleased with the young man and agreed that he could marry An Yu, my sister."

Okay, I just made it up in my imagination. Luckily I didn’t say it out loud, otherwise I would have been slapped in the face by An Lang.

"But then the boy suddenly disappeared. My parents asked my sister what happened, but she couldn't explain it clearly."

"Later, my sister left a letter at home and she left, but I didn't read the letter."

"I did ask my parents where my sister was, but they told me to just pretend she didn't exist. I was still young at the time, and as I grew up, I gradually forgot about her."

"Is she really my sister? She looks familiar, but I'm not sure."

An Lang recalled and then said, "Oh, sir, the boy who was in love with my sister was called Song Qiu. Ask him later to see if his name is that."

Zhou Qing asked: "If this is really your sister, what will you do? Will you come out and meet her?"

"Let me think about it. After all, I have become a ghost."

"Then you think about it. Also, I see that this man has storage equipment on him. He is not a warrior, so he is probably a cultivator. However, his cultivation is not very high. He may be at the visualization level or out-of-body level."

Generally speaking, mortals cannot use space bags, nor other magical tools.

If you were like Meng Hao, who had a father in a fairyland, then that would be a different matter.

"Um."

An Lang responded and stopped talking.

Zhou Qing was led to the living room, where a maid served him tea.

The man said, "My name is Song Qiu, and this is my wife An Yu. May I know what this gentleman's name is?"

"Zhou Qing."

The name does match.

But An Lang's sister doesn't look like her, to put it a little bluntly.

That means he is not as good-looking as An Lang.

An Yu asked, "Mr. Zhou, you and my sister met seven years ago?"

"……Yes."

What had been said before, and An Lang had no intention of meeting now, so Zhou Qing could only continue talking.

"I met An Lang at that time, but later I had other things to do and had to leave, but we agreed to meet again in the future."

"I came here today, why did your people say that An Lang was not in your house?"

Song Qiu sighed, and An Yu looked sad.

"An Lang...died in the water six years ago."

"How is this possible?!"

Zhou Qing was shocked, as if he couldn't believe it, then frowned and said, "After I met An Lang, she didn't tell me that she had a sister. She only said that her parents were still alive and she had a younger brother."

What you mean is, are you guys lying to me?

"It's normal that she doesn't remember me." An Yu said, "I left home when she was young and didn't return for many years. When my husband and I came back, our family had already suffered a great change..."

Having said this, An Yu couldn't continue and her eyes turned red.

Song Qiu placed his hand on hers to comfort her, and then took over the conversation.

"It's normal for Master Zhou to have some doubts, but after An Yu and I came back, we went to the county government to verify our identities, and only then were we able to get the house back."

An Yu calmed down a little, and she said a few more things to clarify her identity.

An Lang listened silently in the haunted house, and gradually became certain that this An Yu was his long-lost sister.

The main thing is that this face is indeed somewhat similar to the one she remembered.

After confirming it, Zhou Qing sighed and said that he was really late.

Then he proposed to go and pay tribute to An's father and mother, and An Yu agreed.

After everything was done, Zhou Qing left the An Mansion, found a place, and called out An Lang.

"Do you want to go meet her?" Zhou Qing asked.

An Lang looked thoughtful and finally shook his head.

"Forget it. I'm already dead after all. It's better not to see you."

"Seeing her would only cause more trouble to my sister, and might even scare her."

An Lang thought very clearly that he had become a ghost and was different from a human after all.

Even if they did, what would that do? It would only make An Yu more worried. When she left with Zhou Qing, An Yu would be worried about her.

It is impossible for An Lang to stay with his sister. Humans and ghosts are different. If mortals stay with ghosts, it will be harmful to their bodies.

Ghosts have no intention of harming people, but people and ghosts should not be together, as they will hurt people imperceptibly.

This is also the most important point. An Yu is a mortal. Matters concerning ghosts are always difficult for mortals to accept, even if her husband is a monk.

Not every monk will deal with ghosts, and the lower the realm, the more so, not to mention the monk's family.

Even if it is a relative, if he suddenly turns into a ghost and appears in front of you, it would be extremely terrifying.

"Let my sister think that I have drowned." An Lang felt a little melancholy.

"So many years have passed. If I show up again, it will only make her continue to be sad."

"Knowing that my sister is still alive and has started a family makes me very happy."

"Just figure it out."

This is other people's business. If An Lang wants to see him, he supports it. If An Lang doesn't want to see him, he also supports it.

However, Zhou Qing thought about it and made a suggestion.

"In fact, you can meet your sister in your dreams. This way you can meet her without causing any other impact."

It is called a dream, but in fact it is probably just to create a dream-like illusion and pull An Yu into it.

In this way, the sisters can meet each other without causing An Yu to think too much.

After all, Zhou Qing came to An Lang during the day and mentioned him, so it was normal for An Yu to dream about him at night.

What you think about during the day, you dream about at night.

These are An Lang's only relatives. If possible, Zhou Qing still hopes for a happy ending.

An Lang's eyes lit up when he heard this.

Please...collect 6_9_book_bar (Six//Nine//Book//bar)

"Good idea, let's do this, I will meet my sister in my dreams at night and let her live a good life."

As for how to create dreams, Zhou Qing doesn’t need to worry about that.

An Lang also has the strength of the Sun Travel Realm, so it is very easy for him to make mortals fall into dreams.

"I need to think about what to say to my sister tonight..."

An Lang took out paper and pen from his space bag and started writing and drawing on it.

When practicing skills such as alchemy and incense making, it is inevitable to record some things, so An Lang always carries things such as paper and pen with him.

Looking at An Lang's appearance, Zhou Qing smiled.

It is actually a good thing for An Lang that she still has a sister alive. The difference between having her entire family killed and still having relatives is huge.

His sister is still alive and seems to be doing well, which is a comfort to An Lang.

Her experience was pitiful, and this is the best outcome.

Leaving An Lang alone here, Zhou Qing went to Cangyuan County to inquire about some situations.

Many people in Cangyuan County knew about the extermination of the An family. Some people also knew that later An Yu and his wife came back and got their house back.

For example, government officials.

Zhou Qing learned some information from them and further confirmed that An Yu was really An Lang's sister.

Time passed quickly and it was night. An Lang floated into the An Mansion without anyone noticing.

She first went to pay tribute to her parents, shedding silent tears, and then went to look for An Yu.

An Yu was sad and exhausted because of what happened during the day and she recalled the past, so she went to bed early.

Song Qiu was reading in the study, which was undoubtedly an opportunity for An Lang.

Dream!

After a while, An Lang left An Yu.

An Yu had tears in her eyes while she was sleeping, but she smiled as if she had let go of all her burdens and was no longer sad. It was obvious that she was having a beautiful dream.

After returning to Zhou Qing, An Lang was visibly happy.

"Sir, she is really my sister."

In the dream, everything was true, which made An Lang completely confirm An Yu's identity.

It is a blessing to have relatives still alive in this world.

"Song Qiu's family is also very wealthy and well-connected. He was taken away by his family members and his sister was asked to wait for him to come back."

An Lang said, "But later, there was no news from Song Qiu, so my sister took the initiative to look for him. When she got there, she found out that something had happened to the Song family and they were being targeted."

"Later, my sister and I had no choice but to go to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and have been living there ever since. We only came back a year ago. Song Qiu also became a cultivator by chance and is now in the Out-of-Body Stage."

Zhou Qing nodded, "No wonder there has been no news."

Looking back now, it was actually a good thing that An Yu left home, as it preserved the last bloodline of the An family.

An Lang...

They have all become ghosts, so how can they still have human blood?

"Although the Song family has encountered misfortune, my sister and her family have done a lot of things in Dongzhou on their own and have built up a considerable family business. They are living a good life now."

An Lang was sincerely happy about this.

"My sister also said that Song Qiu took the initiative to suggest that one of their children should be named An to carry on the An family's legacy. Now that there is a child named An, my parents will definitely be happy if they know about this."

From this we can see that An Yu is living a really good life now, with a loving husband and wife, a rich life, and children surrounding her.

The greatest comfort to the dead is for the living to live happily.

"Sir, I am also very happy. I still have relatives living in this world."

Zhou Qing smiled and was happy for An Lang.

"I told my sister to take care of her health and live a good life. I also told her a lot."

Zhou Qing smiled and said, "If we have the chance in the future, we can come and visit them again."

He and An Lang have the closest relationship. There will be no betrayal or abandonment, and it will last until the end of time.

Zhou Qing is willing to do something for An Lang to keep his little ghost girl happy.

"By the way, before we leave, we can give them some gifts, such as things to nourish their bodies." Zhou Qing said, "So that they can live a healthy life."

Things that allow mortals to live a healthy life without illness or disaster are not precious. An ordinary health-preserving pill will do.

That is to say, it is just a elixir for the skin and flesh realm, and the tendons and veins realm.

An Lang can make this kind of thing himself, and the medicinal materials are also cheap and common.

Even the pills that Zhou Qing purified and refined during the month when he was using the [Creation Pot] were of this type, and they were still preserved.

An Lang laughed when he heard this, "Young Master is really thoughtful."

Zhou Qing thought about it and wrote a letter to give to An Yu.

The general meaning of the letter was that when An Lang and I were together, I said that I would give her some gifts next time we met.

But who knew that seven years would pass, and we would be separated by the Yin and Yang. I have no choice but to give this gift to you, and I hope you can accept it.

Then Zhou Qing prepared a few more gifts, mild medicines for nourishing the body and mind, and he also added Taoist protective items such as the Golden Light Mantra...

Although it is not very high-end, it is also a token of my thoughtfulness.

Finally, Zhou Qing came to the An Mansion again and knocked on the door.

The servant obviously remembered him. After greeting him, Zhou Qing handed the gift package to him and asked the servant to pass it on to An Yu.

Then Zhou Qing left. Not long after, the flying carpet rose outside Cangyuan County and headed straight for Jiuyang City.

The trip to Cangyuan County fulfilled An Lang's wish and made her mind more peaceful.

Anlang is more active now, chirping like a lark.

Zhou Qing just felt that the time spent was worth it.

In the An Mansion, the treasure package sent by Zhou Qing also came into Song Qiu's hands.

After listening to the servant's description, Song Qiu was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that the man in the daytime would be so polite.

Just at this time, An Yu also woke up and came to look for Song Qiu.

"Ah Qiu, let me tell you, I just dreamed about my little sister."

An Yu smiled and said, "In the dream, my little sister cared about me a lot, and I told her about what happened in the past few years."

"Perhaps, my younger sister will convey my message to my father and mother. After not seeing you for many years, my younger sister has grown up and looks no worse than a princess from the Eastern Zhou Dynasty."

Song Qiu smiled and nodded, "Princess Mingkong is definitely not as good as my little sister."

An Yu thought about it and felt that she couldn't speak against her conscience. After all, she was the princess of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.

"From our past interactions, Princess Mingkong and I are probably similar."

“…”

Seeing that his wife was serious, Song Qiu didn't know what to say.

"My younger sister also recognizes you as her brother-in-law. She is very envious of the relationship between us and said that she will bless us."

"I'm so happy that I can see my little sister again. I can finally talk to my family again. Although it's in a dream, it's so clear, as if my little sister really appeared in front of me."

As she said this, An Yu couldn't help crying again.

Song Qiu gently comforted An Yu. An Yu was sobbing. She saw the package on the table and asked something.

"This was sent by the young master during the day. It's specially for you."

Upon hearing this, An Yu opened the box and saw that there were pills, talismans, objects like bracelets and necklaces, as well as a book and a letter.

An Yu opened the letter first, then read it, sighed, and handed it to Song Qiu.

"This Mr. Zhou, after seven years, still came to meet me as promised. I'm afraid he and I had already secretly fallen in love, and his love was very deep."

If you are not deeply in love, would you not be able to forget someone for seven years?

"What a pity! God is jealous of the perfect couple."

Zhou Qing: “…”

After reading the letter, Song Qiu shook his head and sighed, feeling it was a pity.

Then the couple looked at the gift Zhou Qing gave, and Song Qiu was surprised.

"These things, at least, were made by day-traveling monks, and they are all top-notch among their peers."

"My little sister's friend is not simple, but also very generous."

"And this book..."

Song Qiu flipped through it, and An Yu also saw the problem. They looked at each other and said at the same time:

"Haoran Classics!"

That’s right, Zhou Qing also gave a handwritten book of scriptures that contained a lot of great spirit.

If placed in a mansion, it can also serve as a ward off evil spirits. If recited often, it can also enlighten the mind and make people clear-headed and not have sneaky thoughts.

For him, he can write as much as he wants.

Just from the performance of Song Qiu and An Yu, this couple is quite knowledgeable. They can judge the approximate grade of those artifacts and are also familiar with the Haoran classics.

This is not the knowledge that ordinary wealthy people can have.

I'm afraid that in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, what the two of them did was not just simple mundane business.

An Yu said: "These things are of great value, we cannot accept them."

Song Qiu smiled bitterly, "Mr. Zhou left after delivering the things. Let's go to the city during the day to see if we can find him and return the things."

"good."

An Yu nodded, took a look at these things, and sighed again.

"It's a deep love."

Zhou Qing, who was deeply in love, was already on his way to Jiuyang City.

Jiuyang Ruins, Heavenly Fire, here I come!
