In the evening.
In the police car, an old man with snow-white hair twirled his long white beard and kept staring at the night view of the city outside the window.
His name was Lin Yi.
He did not know how old he was now.
The last time he had seen the world and interacted with people was during the Republic of China.
He didn't expect that the world had changed so much in just a hundred years.
"Old sir, how have you been all these years?”The policeman asked curiously.
"In the mountains." Lin Yi said," When I was hungry, I ate wild fruits and vegetables. The past was especially chaotic. Later on, I got lost with my family. I went into the forest and never came out again. If it wasn't for that person you mentioned, what would happen?”
"The population survey."
"Yes, otherwise, no one would have discovered me."”
The policeman nodded.”
In fact, Lin Yi had thought of it himself and deliberately let others discover him.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for no one to discover his tracks for nearly a hundred years.
For cultivators, there was a divine power called a barrier.
As for why he suddenly walked out of the array, it was actually because his cultivation path had ended.
End at the Golden Core Stage!
Why did it stop?
Because he had failed to transcend the tribulation.
To cultivators, you were a heaven-defying existence that feared nothing.
And once you fail to transcend the tribulation, you will feel the fear of failure.
Fear of the world.
It also meant that you no longer possessed the prideful and pure mentality that a cultivator should have.
This path ended here.
Fortunately, after failing to transcend the tribulation, he was still able to survive and not die!
In his understanding, cultivators were like birds without feet. Once you stepped onto this path, you would have to soar in the sky for the rest of your life.
When you stop one day, you will die in the lightning tribulation!
And he was lucky that he didn't die.
But here came the problem.
He could not continue cultivating.
But what could Yu Sheng do?
After that, he had a very long period of confusion.
He didn't know where to go in this long life.
Did he also think of using the rest of his life to make it up to his descendants?
However, he felt that he did not have the face to look for his descendants.
This was because he had selfishly cut off all ties and left without saying goodbye in order to cultivate.
But in the end, he still decided to come out and find his descendants.
Hence, he came to Jiang City.
The police found some information about Lin Yi's descendants based on the information he provided.
In the end, they were sent to an apartment building.
The beautiful and lively woman who opened the door for them stood at the door in shock. She didn't know why the policeman was bringing a white-haired old man with a walking stick in the middle of the night.
Miss Lin Chuxue, right?" The policeman took out his identification and said,"I'm sorry to disturb you. It's like this. When we were conducting the population survey, we found this old gentleman who had been living in seclusion in the forest. The problem now is that he belongs to the Five Guardians, so you have to take responsibility for supporting him.”
When Lin Yi saw his descendant in front of him, his old face revealed a happy and excited expression.
"What does this have to do with me?" Lin Chuxue was puzzled,[You should ask the old man to find his family.]”
The policeman coughed." We didn't make it clear. According to the information provided by this old man, we found out that you might be his only living descendant."”
Lin Yi smiled kindly." According to the timeline, I should be your grandfather's father, which is also your great-grandfather."”
"How? My grandfather is gone, and my parents died in an accident. If it were really my great-grandfather, we would be separated by three generations. I'm afraid the paternity test now won't work, right?”Lin Chuxue wasn't stupid and looked at the policeman curiously.
"Old sir, come, tell me yourself.”
Lin Yi nodded and took a step forward. He took out a black-and-white photo from the sleeve of his robe.
"This is a photo of me and my son. His name is Lin Congmin and he was born in August 193*. This is a photo of me hugging him when I was young. Do you have any photos or family tree of your grandfather when he was young? Check it, my name should be there.”
Lin Chuxue froze for a moment.
There was a family tree, but she had never read it carefully.
Moreover, she wasn't very clear about her grandfather's birth date.
The problem now was, didn't the matter in front of him feel too ridiculous?
Her grandfather's name was right, but it was not like this thing could not be found.
"Sir, how old are you?" Lin Chuxue looked at Lin Yi, who had a head of white hair and a white beard but was very energetic, and asked curiously.
This was because this guy said that his son was born in the year 193*.
Didn't that mean he was born in the early 20th century?
"I should be over a hundred years old this year, right?”Lin Yi smacked his lips in embarrassment." Sometimes, I'm too muddle-headed. I don't remember much."”
Lin Chuxue muttered,"Then you still remember your son's birthday?"
However, she was also very surprised by Lin Yi's appearance.
Although Lin Yi had white hair and a white beard, and there were wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, if he said that he was only in his sixties, it would not be wrong. Wasn't he taking care of himself too well?
"Aren't you guys too careless?”Lin Chuxue pointed at the three policemen and said," If he really is my great-grandfather, he must be 110 years old." Was that even possible? Look at him. He's so energetic. Does he look like an old man?”
The police officer smiled bitterly." Miss Lin, we had the same expression as you at the beginning, but Mr. Lin has already given us evidence from that era. We have verified all of this, including the information he said about your grandfather's birth. Although we can investigate this, an old villager like him can't. We have checked it, and he really said that Mr. Lin Congmin's information, birthplace, and where he used to live was true. In short, there's no problem with the old man's identity. You just have to verify if he's his descendant.”
Lin Chuxue had no choice but to let them in first.
After Lin Yi entered, he saw that his great-granddaughter's apartment was a little small. He sighed guiltily.
"You live here? Can people live in such a small place?"
The policeman at the side explained,"Old Sir, this place is not like a village in the mountains. Jiang City is the financial center of the Dragon Country. This 50 square meter apartment is already not bad."”
"This is not even as big as my toilet." Lin Yi snorted.
Back then, he lived in a courtyard with a lotus pond.
"You can buy hundreds of latrines in your village with this place.”Lin Chuxue couldn't help but roll her eyes at the old man.
Then, she flipped to the family tree. It had been so many years since she was young, but there was still a time when she used this thing.
She immediately found her father's faction and pulled her grandfather's generation.
The name of his grandfather's father was written in the column: Lin Yi!
"There's a high chance that he's your great-grandfather." When the policeman saw this, he chuckled. He had finally resolved the matter."Then look for a photo of your grandfather when he was young and compare it with this old man's childhood appearance.”
" How could the photos of the older generation be preserved until now?" Lin Chuxue shook her head. He looked at Lin Yi and asked,"Then do you know my father's identity?" Do you have a photo of him?"
Lin Yi shook his head and sat on the sofa, deep in thought."When I left, your father hadn't given birth yet. However, before I left, I instructed my family that if there was a male in the next generation, they would choose Lin Weiguang.”
The police officer quickly looked at the family tree.
Good heavens.
Lin Congmin's next generation really had Lin Weiguang's name.
"You already said that even the police can't find the things of the older generation, but he's already old and remembers this thing. Moreover, he's right. What else do you have to believe?”
Lin Chuxue was suspicious." It's precisely because he was so accurate that I didn't believe him. Logically speaking, he's already so old and has been lost for so long. He shouldn't remember it so clearly, right?"”
The policeman smacked his lips." So you don't believe that he's your great-grandfather and refuse to support him?"”
Lin Chuxue hesitated.
She was a little caught off guard when an old ancestor appeared out of nowhere.
She subconsciously looked at Lin Yi.
Lin Yi sighed." Actually, I should have thought of it. I've been lost for so long. My family has long forgotten about me, right?" Or rather, I was the one who abandoned them back then. It's normal that the descendants didn't forgive me and accept me. Child, it's not your fault. It was my own fault. I didn't deserve to have a family.”
As he spoke, Lin Yi stood up and walked towards the door in a very lonely manner.
Lin Chuxue's heart softened a little. Ever since her only parents died in a car accident, her desire for kinship became even stronger.
However, the old man's proof was not enough to convince her.
Even the names and information of his grandfather and father could be found on the tombstone in the cemetery if one wanted to.
This kind of thing was not a child's play. Even if she sympathized with him, she would not be brainless enough to believe him.
The police officer looked at Lin Chuxue." Actually, you didn't do anything wrong. After all, there isn't enough evidence to prove that he's your great-grandfather. Now that you're living alone, it's normal for you to be afraid." According to the procedure, we will send the old gentleman to a nursing home if there is no one to support him. However, from a moral standpoint, I feel that an old man who has been lost for decades is really pitiful. The only reason he can live until now is because he hopes to come back and see his loved ones. In fact, we have done a lot of research these past few days before we dared to look for you. I hope you can think about it.”
With that, the police officers left.
After everyone left.
Lin Chuxue was left in the apartment, and in the end, she still kept the family tree intact.
When she put down the family tree, she saw a letter in the drawer.
It was like a relic of his parents.
She hadn't noticed it before because it was covered by the family tree.
Lin Chuxue took the envelope.
He unfolded it.
Looking at the handwriting, it was his grandfather's handwriting.
Because Grandpa liked calligraphy, only he knew how to write with a brush.
Lin Chuxue continued to read the content.
As she read, the expression on her face became a little anxious.
Her beautiful pupils gradually dilated.
The letter said that his grandfather's father had once run away from home in order to pursue the Dao. His grandfather firmly believed that his father had always been alive.
The letter strongly requested that the descendants of the Lin family, whether it was Lin Chuxue's father or her, this letter was for the descendants of the Lin family.
He told them that if there was a chance in the future, they must find this ancestor Lin Yi. This was the wish of the Lin family members of the previous two generations.
From his grandfather's tone, he seemed to admire his father very much. He felt that he had failed his father in this life, so he did not have the face to look for his father.
There was a photo in the envelope. It was black and white.
It was a young man. Wasn't he the young man in Lin Yi's photo just now?
Downstairs.
When Lin Yi bent down and got into the car, Lin Chuxue shouted while panting,""Please wait a moment."
Lin Chuxue walked in front of Lin Yi and suddenly knelt down.""Great-grandfather, I'm sorry. Stay here, your great-grandson Xiaoxue will support you!”
Lin Yi's face instantly melted as he revealed a kind smile. He reached out and stroked her hair."Good!"
