On an autumn day, the afternoon sun shines lazily on the window screen.

The three little ones lay down in bed and took a nap under the care of their mother, and the father finished his rest and returned to the study first.

Several large bookshelves are filled with all kinds of books and research materials, and the room exudes a faint smell of books, which can't help but make people feel calm.

On the desk are stacks of copies of ancient texts, mysterious patterns and ancient words that are jerky and difficult to understand, some of them like the whims of children.

Luo Wenxuan put the document to be deciphered on the scanner, opened the database on the computer, and began to compare.

On the table to his right, there are some reference documents.

"Daddy."

A childish voice suddenly sounded, and a small figure rushed to his side, holding the edge of the table with both hands.

"Xiaobin, why are you here?" Luo Wenxuan's expression moved slightly, as if he was surprised.

"I can't sleep when I wake up." Luo Bin replied with his head tilted, and then he turned his gaze to a drawing in front of him, where a strange, tree-like pattern caught his attention.

"Curious?"

The father smiled slightly, and the son nodded repeatedly.

"This is the inverted tree, also known as the tree of life, which is the blueprint for God's creation of this world......

So the father explained to his son, and he didn't care if he could understand it, as if he was telling a children's story.

The child listened ignorantly, but with great interest, and when his father talked about the "Fire Sword Road", he stretched out his finger and slowly paddled along the route his father said—

“————”

It's like a throbbing deep into the soul.

Like a deafening roar.

The sound is loud, and the elephant is invisible.

Countless colors exploded in front of Luo Wenxuan's eyes, and the room and the things in the room began to deform and change color, turning into an indescribable appearance.

It's as if countless rooms overlap at various angles, and all that is left is chaos.

A creepy feeling suddenly spread throughout his body, and it seemed that a demon from the abyss was staring at him, only to disappear with a glimmer of sky light that appeared in the chaos.

Luo Wenxuan finally came back to his senses from the stunned state of being impacted, and couldn't help but shake his hand, staggering his son's fingers drawn on the path of the fire sword, and everything around him suddenly returned to normal.

"Dad?" Luo Bin looked at his father suspiciously.

“……”

Luo Wenxuan blinked, looked at the room in front of him where everything was normal, and recalled the explosive impact picture just now, and couldn't help but press his forehead with his other hand, which was already in a cold sweat.

When I calmed down, I noticed that my heart was beating like a drum.

"Hoo ......"

Taking a deep breath and then spitting it out, Luo Wenxuan recalled the situation that his son had just drawn on the path of the fire sword...... I wanted to ignore it, but the image of my fingers "returning" from the point of wisdom to the point of the crown haunted me.

"Dad, what's wrong with you?" Luo Bin asked a little nervously.

“…… Sorry sorry, Dad just thought of something and got distracted. Suddenly awakened, Luo Wenxuan smiled apologetically at his son, suppressed all kinds of doubts in his heart, and said, "Xiaobin, you go out and play by yourself first, Dad has some things to do." ”

"Okay~." Luo Bin nodded obediently, turned around and slipped out of the study.

Commenting on his son's figure disappearing outside the door, Luo Wenxuan turned around, supported his forehead with his hands, and rested his elbows on the table, forming a triangle.

"Just now...... What's that, exactly? ”

Luo Wenxuan was deeply puzzled, if he ignored the others, the discoloration, deformation and overlapping phenomena in the room seemed to be different phases—or the embodiment of imaginary space.

But, why is this happening?

Because a child is paddling along the route of the Fire Sword Path? That's ridiculous......

Luo Wenxuan wanted to laugh, but he couldn't.

"......"

Sighing in anguish, Luo Wenxuan decided to put everything that had just happened behind him.

In any case, because of a child, the phenomenon of imaginary space projecting on real space is too strange - no, even for other reasons, it is a very strange thing.

Dig deeper...... I'm afraid something will happen that drops the san value.

went out to wash his face, and looked at his wife and two other children who were still taking a nap, and there was no abnormal movement, which made Luo Wenxuan breathe a sigh of relief.

Back in the study, Luo Wenxuan continued his work of deciphering the text.

It's not his job, it's just that the friends he knows ask him, so he took part of the job.

"Huh......"

Luo Wenxuan blinked, and for a moment just now, he seemed to understand the meaning of those unfamiliar words strangely...... He couldn't help but look at it again.

"Whew...... Sure enough, it's a delusion...... Is it? ”

Luo Wenxuan let out a sigh, but he couldn't relax in his heart.

What happened that day was buried deep in Luo Wenxuan's heart.

In addition to his daily life with his wife and children, he devotes all his energy to the work of deciphering words.

However, to his surprise, the process of deciphering the text went smoothly beyond imagination, and the work that should have taken several months to complete was completed in only half a month, which really scared him and his friends.

"Oh my God! How did you do that? Dan asked exaggeratedly, and they video called through a communication software on a forum: "This ancient text has been pestering me for a long time, but I still have no problem with them!" ”

"I don't know." Luo Wenxuan smiled bitterly, "Rather than through scientific means (deciphering them), I relied more on intuition when deciphering them, as if I knew them in the first place. ”

"Oh! That's unbelievable! It's hard to believe that it's something like a sense of language! Dan couldn't help but mutter, and used two words in a row to express his excitement in disbelief.

"Well," Dan thought for a moment, and proposed, "I'll go to your side in a while and bring the rest of the papers with me, what do you think?" ”

"Absolutely."

Luo Wenxuan responded generously.

Seeing that the conversation between the two came to an end, the little girl who had been waiting next to her jumped out.

"Uncle Dan, are you coming to our side?"

The little girl's eyes lit up and she shouted, as if she was expecting something.

"Lovely Lynn, I hope you can welcome your uncle when the time comes!" Dan laughed.

"Uh-huh!" Rowling nodded repeatedly, "Uncle Dan be careful on the road!" ”

"That's it."

Laughing and watching the two interact, Luo Wenxuan finally said.

"Goodbye!"

The video call closes.

"Is it over?"

A woman in a white dress and a white sunhat stands by the door.

"Mom!"

The little girl happily greeted her and threw herself into her mother's arms.

Shang Junyao smiled dotingly and stroked her daughter's little head, and then nodded her chin to her husband who got up.

"Xiaobin and Xiaozhen are waiting outside, looking forward to the outing."

"I've been busy with work lately......"

Luo Wenxuan smiled apologetically and bitterly.

"Let's go."

A smile appeared at the corner of Shang Junyao's mouth.
