Patriarch!!?

I was a little dumbfounded.

This old beggar, who is weak and seems to be able to fall down immediately when the wind blows, is the patriarch of the Jin Anlin clan?

Am I crazy, or is Yuan Lan crazy?

The people of the Shi clan are noble, not to mention the patriarch, even if they are ordinary disciples, they are also well-dressed and generous, just like the two men of the Qinghe Cui clan before, as soon as they make a casual move, they are millions, and they directly and heroically buy the picture of Bao Yanxuan's beauty out of the bath.

And just when I was in doubt, when the beggar heard Yuan Lan's words, his eyes instantly burst out with an unprecedented light!

He slowly stood up, his voice much stronger, and said, "You...... Is it really Lin Lan? Yuan's Lin Lan? ”

"It's me! Absolutely true! ”

Yuan Lan nodded and said.

The beggar turned to me and asked, "He...... Who is it? ”

"Don't dare to hide it from the old patriarch, this person said that he wanted to come to find the location of the Lin family, and I was coerced by him, so I had no choice but to come."

Yuan Lan really didn't hide it in the slightest, and she wasn't afraid that I really had the so-called blood Gu technique, so she directly told everything.

I saw this beggar who was missing an arm, with a cold glint in his eyes, he looked at me and asked, "Do you really want to find the location of my Lin family?" ”

"Yes."

I nodded, but at this moment, the look at this beggar made me feel that he had a bit of the momentum of the patriarch of the Shi clan, and after his eyes were no longer empty, they were incomparably clear and sharp, comparable to the top five grades of the Yuan clan now, the patriarch Yuan Jing!

"Okay, you come with me, I'm Lin Yuejiao, the patriarch of the Jin'an Lin clan, and I'll take you to the land of my clan."

The beggar gave his name directly, and he unhurriedly put away the begging stall and led me to the depths of the ancient town.

After going inside, it is no longer a scenic spot in the ancient town, but an old house built of loess.

On the way, I thought, is the beggar really the patriarch of the Jin Anlin clan?

This is not very like, is Yuan Lan casually looking for someone to act in front of me, or is it that the strength of this Lin clan patriarch is not much different from Yuan Zhengfa, and he is a top cultivator of the fourth grade, so he can completely hide his qi in front of me?

Thinking about it, the beggar led us into this old loess house.

The house was small, and it was even more dilapidated, with a dilapidated bed, a blackened stove, and a table with unwashed dishes on it.

It's simply ......

I thought about my childhood, and how was this different from where I lived as a beggar as a child?

"Here, this is where my clan is located, I am the patriarch of the Lin clan, and my room is the core of the Jin An Lin clan!"

The beggar spoke up, staring at me intensely.

I looked at a picture on the table, and the only thing in the room that was clean was this one.

This is a group photo, in which the beggar in front of me sits in the middle, in the photo, he is cleanly dressed, his face is refreshing, and he is extremely fairy.

There are men and women, old and young, around him, but everyone is in good spirits, just judging from the photos, the people in the group photo are not ordinary people.

There are about 100 people in the photo...... That's the normal number of people in a family!

Just listen, the beggar said: "I know you don't believe it, but this is the truth, your goal has been achieved, please, now that my Lin clan has completely declined, and I am not worthy of the name of the scholar clan, no matter who you are, whether you come to see the joke or have other purposes, here, no one in the scholar clan is welcome." ”

Don't I believe it?

I believed.

This beggar Lin Yuejiao is really the patriarch of the Jin An Lin clan!

His identity can be disguised in advance, and even this photo can be disguised in advance, but a woman in this photo is not so easy to add in advance.

My sister-in-law, Lin Susu!

In this photo, I saw what my sister looked like when she was young!

For a moment, my heart was gloomy......

The huge Jin An Lin clan, a family of scholars who are above ordinary people, and even the entire Shenzhou, is it so defeated?

The family is in the loess house, and the patriarch begs for food......

Is the reason for all this because of my master Lao Huang?

When I thought of Changbai Mountain, Lao Huang's last confession to me before his death.

The only force he owes is the Jin An Lin clan, if I have the ability and can help, I will help.

But Lao Huang may not have thought that the Jin An Lin clan has declined to this point, let alone in the scholar clan, even if it is placed in the world, the Jin An Lin clan can't even compare to an ordinary family.

At this moment, my heart is extremely complicated.

"This is by no means the Jin An Lin clan, say! Who are you! Don't pretend to be in front of me, I'm not a soft-hearted person, and if it's a deception, I'll kill you at once!" ”

But then, I snapped.

Whether it was Yuan Lan or the beggar Lin Yuejiao, they were unmoved, and they were not frightened in any way because of my actions.

The beggar Lin Yuejiao stood up and said, "I'll take you to take a look at it......"

After speaking, he walked out of the old loess house and came to another old house not far away, he knocked on the door, and there was a family of three living in the house.

A man leaned out, this man was also dressed in tatters, his face was yellow and thin, and when he saw the beggar, the man grinned and said with a smile: "Patriarch, why do you have time to come to my door today?" I've got some noodles and bacon here, so you can take them home and eat them. ”

"No need, I'll bring my friends over to take a look, this is Lin Lan, a clansman from my clan outside."

The beggar waved his hand and said.

The man looked at Yuan Lan and nodded with a smile, and Yuan Lan also called Uncle very politely.

Then, the man looked at me, suddenly a little wary, but still forced to smile and say hello.

I looked at the man closely, he didn't seem to have much strength in his limbs, he couldn't stand steadily, his arms drooped, as if he didn't even have the strength to lift up.

After a long time, I said, "Can you go in and have a look?" ”

Right now, my words are much softer, and even if I want to pretend to be a bad person, I can't do that.

"Yes, you are a friend of the patriarch, of course it is convenient."

The man nodded.

I went into the house, which was better than the beggar's, but not much better, with the man's wife and children, one dirty, the other looking malnourished.

The man's wife seemed to be working at home to earn money, and after one look at me, she concentrated on her own business, except for the child, who kept staring at me.

Seeing this, I sighed and left the room.

If I am not so sure just now, I can be completely sure now, this is the base camp of the Jin An Lin clan! Whether it's Lin Yuejiao or that man I've seen, they're all from the Lin family!

The man is a cultivator, I feel it, but he is a deposed cultivator, exactly the same as Lin Guan Buddha.

As for his wife and children, they are all ordinary people, and they don't have any smell of qi on their bodies.

"Go ahead and check it out."

Lin Yuejiao said.

Then, he took me to a few old houses, all of which were inhabited by people from the Lin family, who either had their qi discarded and reduced to ordinary people with weak limbs, or those who had fewer eyes and legs.

They are all disabled people who are unable to live a normal life.

"Did you see it all? Whether what I said is true or not, I think you should already have the answer in your heart. ”

Lin Yuejiao looked at me and said calmly.

"Is this really the case for the Jin An Lin clan?"

My voice trembled a little.

"As you can see."

Lin Yuejiao said aloud.

I slowly closed my eyes, and for a moment, sadness suddenly welled up in my heart.

In my mind, the scholar clan is powerful, it is high, it is noble, it is the real master of this land, I have never seen a scholar decay, in my opinion, even if a scholar clan declines, it is only from the ranks of the scholars, in the world, it should be no problem to continue to live a rich life.

But now I realize I was wrong.

The higher you stand, the harder you fall, and this sentence seems to be able to describe the scholars.

Once the scholars are decayed, the outcome may be more tragic than that of ordinary rich and noble families.

Seeing that I didn't speak, Lin Yuejiao said, "Can I leave now?" We are not even ordinary people, and we don't want to be tainted with the rights and wrongs of the scholars anymore......"
