"Uncle Hu, isn't this Chen nerd's home still far away? Why have we been walking in the village for so long, and I haven't arrived yet, I think it's even farther than when we went to the shop before. ”

Lin Kai followed behind Uncle Hu, going back and forth in Qiumu Village, Lin Kai didn't know what was going on, but Uncle Hu just didn't go to Chen's nerd's house.

"Chen Shu's house, he lives separately from his brother and father, his brother's father's residence is easy to find, but Chen Shu's own residence is very difficult to find, I seem to have only been here once in my impression, and I can't remember it now, I forget which tree he lives on. ”

Old Uncle Hu raised his head, constantly wandering around Qiumu Village, where there were woods everywhere, and he was already a little impatient.

"What, I forgot which tree it was on, Uncle Hu, what does this mean, Chen Shudu won't live on a tree, right? ”

Lin Kai was a little surprised, this Chen nerd actually lived on a tree, and it seemed that he was really a weird person.

"That's right, this Chen nerd really lives on top of a tree, and his study house is quite high, and it blends in with the surrounding leaves, sometimes you can't see it with the naked eye. ”

Uncle Hu nodded, and said with a slight smile, Chen Nerd's small tree house, he was fortunate to come to it once, that time because Uncle Hu worked for Chen Nerd's father, and it happened that his father wanted to settle accounts with Chen Nerd, so he took Uncle Hu to Chen Nerd's treehouse.

"Uncle Hu, have you been to that tree house, what is the environment inside, and how did you get there, it's really interesting, the first time I heard that there are people living on top of trees. ”

Lin Kai smiled, very curious about this so-called tree house.

Uncle Hu, who had been looking up at the sky, heard Lin Kai speak, looked down at Lin Kai, and smiled without saying a word.

"Haha, you will know about the small tree house right away, you see that the place that is slightly different from the color of the leaves is the so-called small tree house of Chen Shudu. ”

Old Uncle Hu twisted his neck, which was a little sore from looking at the sky for a long time, looked at Lin Kai and said with a smile.

"But...... How do we go up, there doesn't seem to be a way to go up here, it can't be a tree. ”

Lin Kai looked in the direction pointed by Uncle Hu, and it seemed that there was really a small tree house on top of the two big trees, but because the color of the tree house was slightly similar to the leaves, it didn't look obvious.

"It's not climbing trees, of course, if you want to climb trees, I won't stop you, Nerd Chen!

Old Uncle Hu smiled slightly, raised his head to the small tree house above his head, and shouted loudly.

"Who is it? I won't let people sleep in broad daylight!"

After a few minutes or so, a man's voice could be heard from above the treehouse, but nothing changed.

"Uncle Hu, we don't really want to climb trees. ”

Looking at the gray-faced old Uncle Hu, Lin Kai felt embarrassed, so he nodded on Uncle Hu's shoulder, meaning to climb the tree.

"Bah, no need to climb a tree, I must let this kid put the vine down. ”

Old Uncle Hu spat at the foam, wiped his hands, and shouted at the tree house again.

"Nerd, I brought a boy here, he wanted to study the oldest legend in our Akiki Village, so I brought him here, I don't think anyone in our village is more knowledgeable than you!"

"Good!"

"You wait, I'll put the vine down, you all pay attention!"

Originally, Lin Kai thought that this time there was no hope of going up to the nerd to study the legend of Gumu Village, but the sudden change in the nerd's attitude surprised Lin Kai. Although Lin Kai didn't figure out what the nerd was causing his change of attitude, Lin Kai was still very happy in his heart, after all, he finally had the opportunity to go up and learn about this legend.

Soon, a staircase-like vine slowly lowered from the top of the cabin, made entirely of rattan, but it looked extremely tough, and it was obviously not made by brute force, but definitely by some particularly advanced technique, so that this staircase-like rattan was particularly strong.

"Come on, Lin Kai, Chen Shudu's is waiting for us above, this is the rattan that leads to his cabin, if you want to climb a tree, I'm afraid even the barbarian uncle is very difficult to climb directly into his cabin, once Chen Shudu's cabin was once the safest and strongest cabin. ”

Old Uncle Hu smiled at Lin Kai and pointed to the rattan, meaning to let Lin Kai go up first, and then go up himself. Although his body is not as strong and flexible as Lin Kai's body, he is an elder after all, and he still has to be humble to Lin Kai.

"Okay, Uncle Hu, you can climb up later. ”

Lin Kai nodded and agreed, and then took the lead in stepping on the rattan, and grabbed the rattan with the other hand and exerted force, and climbed on it, I don't know what's going on, Lin Kai just felt that it was very easy to climb on this staircase-like rattan, almost effortlessly, so he was still worried about Uncle Hu's heart, so he let it go.

"Huhu, may I ask here...... Is this Chen Shudu's home? I'm Lin Kai, an outsider from Qiumu Village. ”

Lin Kai used his hands and feet together, quickly climbed to the highest place, and then jumped onto the wooden board on the rattan, the wooden board was only one meter wide, and then there was the cabin, the small door had been opened, but Lin Kai did not see a human figure.

"Oh yes, yes, this is Nerd Chen's home. ”

Lin Kai was a little dumbfounded, because the person who spoke was not a person, but a parrot in front of the house.

"Uh...... By the way, let me ask you a question, is the owner of this cabin really called Chen Shuddy? I don't know the name, I don't know if it's a bit bad to call Chen Shuddy. ”

Lin Kai looked at the parrot a little dazed, and then thought that since this parrot was raised by Chen Shunerd, he must know something.

"Nerd~Nerd!"

The parrot's mouth turned for a while, but what Lin Kai didn't expect was that the word nerd was ushered in at the end.

"It turns out that it's really called a nerd, I shouldn't want to see the living, so let's wait for Uncle Hu to come up. ”

Lin Kai looked at the slightly ugly parrot and muttered to himself.

"Hey, this person is old, his body is just not flexible, but fortunately, this nerd vine has a special structure, which makes it easy for people to climb up, Lin Kai, why didn't you go in, who were you talking to just now?

But in a moment, Old Uncle Hu's figure also climbed up from below, only a little embarrassed, and crystal beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

"I just climbed up and didn't see a figure, so I chatted with the parrot and was waiting for you. ”

Lin Kai looked at Old Uncle Hu and smiled, pointed to the parrot next to him and said.

"Oh, that's what it looks like, let's go, let's go in. ”

Old Uncle Hu nodded and understood, but he didn't know if Lin Kai didn't dare to see the living, or the nerd in the room didn't dare to see the living, so he had to take the initiative himself.

"Nerd, it turns out that you are still studying, no wonder the tone was not good just now, No, this is the outsider Lin Kai I am talking about, he has been helping the village to work these days, and then by chance I heard the legend that is spread from mouth to mouth in our Akiki Village, that is, the legend of the powerful ancestors and toads in Akiki Village, who knows that this kid is as if he was fascinated, not to say that this legend is very likely that I am true, I have been inquiring about this legend for the past few days, I told him about you, our great talent in Akiki Village, presumably if you come to you, it is very likely to find some clues of this legend。 ”

Uncle Hu was not polite when he entered the house, took a bench and made it, and said endlessly to Scholar Chen, who had been lying on the table reading a book, during the whole process, Nerd Chen didn't look up at all, silent, I don't know if he was reading the book and fell into the mind, or listened to Uncle Hu too seriously.

"Ahem, about that legend, I once thought it was true, it took me eight years to find the material of that legend, and then I really couldn't find any clues of that legend, so I gave up, and acquiesced to the words of the villagers, that legend is completely groundless and fake. ”

After a while, Chen Shu helped the glasses he was wearing on the bridge of his nose and said slowly, but he still didn't turn around.

"It seems that you, like me, think that legend is very suitable for the actual situation of Akiki Village, but some of the things in it are very likely to have been wrongly recorded, or changed in the long river of time, so I will not find any evidence now, of course, this is just my idea. ”

Lin Kai nodded and said to Chen Shudu, in fact, he had a lot of thoughts in his heart, as for why he didn't say it, it was completely because all the villagers in Qiumu Village didn't believe in this legend, and even if he said it himself, it was completely empty, so it was better not to say it.

"You're right, I haven't forgotten this speculation, but I haven't wasted time on this for many years, the legendary ancestral hall, I think it's very likely to be demolished in a certain generation of the Nine Great Elders, as for the sealed toad, as well as the ancestors of Akiki Village, it is also possible that it is not very powerful, it is just mythologized, but it is very likely that it does exist, even if the ancestral hall is demolished, the mountain that can absorb the vitality of heaven and earth can still suppress the toad that has been sealed for many years, besides, the life span of the toad is not unlimited, and it is also possible to die in the process of this sealing。 ”

Chen Shudun finally turned his head and looked at Lin Kai, who was not so far away from him, his eyes lit up, he had been nesting in Qiumu Village for so many years, and today he finally met a like-minded person with him, and Lin Kai's guess now is exactly the same as his guess when he was young.

"Yes, I just think there is such a possibility, as for the mountain that can absorb the vitality of heaven and earth, I already have the object of speculation, I think you must have it too. ”

Lin Kai nodded, looking at Chen Shudu's smile a little crazy, because he now had a feeling of being in his heart.

"Rank Mountains!"

Chen Nerd pointed at Lin Kai and said loudly, over the years, the rank mountain range has impressed Chen Nerd very deeply, but because of the attention of the whole village and the coercion of the nine elders, Chen Nerd has never mentioned it.

"If it's really the same as me, I'll say, why didn't an ordinary small mountain village like Akiki Village choose to plant wheat on the plains, but chose to plant wheat on the level mountain range, and also engaged in a miraculous one, the sun wheat field, the moon wheat field, the star wheat field, and the news blockade of the nine elders, we ordinary people don't know the meaning of the grade wheat field to us, but we know that it is very important, so when I first heard the mountain body that can absorb the vitality of heaven and earth in the legend, I guessed that it was a grade mountain range. ”

Lin Kai laughed, it seems that it is indeed right to find this Chen nerd.
