Lao Xu's Awakening (2)

"Please, but don't have any more clues. ”

Lao Xu opened the file bag nervously, he was very sincere and thirsty, and the contents could tell him directly and clearly, where was the box containing the memories?

However, afraid of what comes. Lao Xu shook the file bag, and then a photo fell into his hand. He took the photo in surprise and flicked the file bag again.

"No, it's just a photo! It was a letter last time!" he was so angry that he tore open the file bag, and the result was very obvious, there was only one photo.

Disheartened, Lao Xu came to the room on the next floor and sat on the bed, intending to take a good look at the photo. He originally thought that since there was no letter, there must be some text behind the photo.

But when he flipped his wrist, he saw a blank space behind the photo. He couldn't help but gasp, and suddenly felt that his brain cells were not enough.

"Ouch, I promise, if there's another time, I'll kill you and won't do it. I'm really tired!" Although Lao Xu said so, in the end, he still grabbed the photo with both hands, fixed it in front of his eyes, and carefully looked for clues.

In a courtyard, it is not the courtyard of Lao Xu's house, in a corner of the courtyard, there is a tree, a poplar tree of extraordinary height, and every leaf is golden, which looks even more dazzling in the afterglow of the setting sun.

The scene in the photo is very poetic, but when Lao Xu looked at the poplar tree twice, his heart suddenly hurt as if he was on fire. He hurriedly put down the photo, closed his eyes and rested for a while.

For some reason, this yard gave him an inexplicable sense of familiarity. As soon as he looked at it, he felt that he should have experienced a lot there. But the next glance, he felt terriblely unfamiliar, and even though he tried hard to remember, he still couldn't remember what had happened there.

Moreover, when he looked closely at the poplar tree in the photo, his heartache suddenly swelled with a sense of guilt. This feeling made him very uncomfortable, and if he was not careful, a tear actually quietly flowed out of his eyes.

"Why?" thought to himself, "why does this poplar tree make me so sad?"

Although he couldn't understand why he felt sad, Lao Xu could clearly feel from it that this yard and this poplar tree must mean something. And he's sure they must all be in Lazy Town.

Saying that it was too late, Lao Xu ran back to the first floor, put on his shoes and immediately pushed open the door. The glare of the sunlight forced him back into the house, but he leaned over and picked up a pair of sunglasses from the cabinet next to the door. With it, no matter how big the sun is, there is nothing to fear.

Here, it's always so sunny and windy. When Lao Xu went out, he was surprised to find that the tall building in the center of the town, which meant the supremacy of laziness, was gone. Moreover, this lazy town is not what it is now, but it remains the same as it was decades ago, when he was a teenager.

Lao Xu was shocked, and hurriedly found a small mirror. At this sight, he was stupid. Because in the mirror, he really looks like a teenager, five or six years younger than when he woke up from recuperation.

"Oh, look at my handsome face! it's so handsome, what girl can stand it!" he sighed to himself, "Ouch, look at these attractive and deep eyes, and such beautiful eyebrows." Tsk, how can there be such a good-looking person in the world!"

After that, Lao Xu put the small mirror away

In my pocket, I plan to take a good look at this handsome face every ten minutes.

Lao Xu first came to the center of the town and found that instead of the tall building, there was a round, gossip-shaped square. Confused, he walked towards the plaza, and just as he was about to step forward, a white light flashed before his eyes. Immediately afterward, he saw his body being bounced several meters high, and flying over several alleys with a flip.

"What the hell!" Although Lao Xu didn't feel the pain, when he landed on the roof of a house, his whole body was shattered like a puddle of flesh, and he couldn't move at all.

After a while, he saw that his body was gradually healing, and he slowly gained the strength to sit up. At this time, he looked from afar, only to find that the square was protected by a protective layer, and under the sunlight, it looked sparkling.

After the bones of his body grew again, Lao Xu climbed to the top of the roof in one breath. He really didn't expect to look for that tall poplar tree, and he couldn't find it all day long after walking through the streets, but didn't he see it at a glance when he stood on a high place?

Sure enough, he glanced around and soon noticed that in the east of the town, there was a poplar tree swinging in the wind.

"Found you!" Lao Xu clapped his hands excitedly and jumped off the roof of the house without reason. He may be relying on himself in a dream, and he will be fine if he is injured. But the moment he landed, he immediately broke his legs, and the whole person lay on the ground, "Hehe, I'll go to you...... I hate this kind of dream......"

After wasting a lot of time, he was "resurrected with full blood". After patting off the sand and dust on his body, he jumped all the way to the east of the town, and found a quiet shade in the complex streets and alleys.

He slowly walked under the shade of the tree and carefully compared the tree with the tree in the photo. Their leaves are all the same golden yellow and just as tall.

"This is it. Lao Xu thought to himself, "I didn't expect it, it's quite easy." ”

The process was quite easy, but for some reason, Lao Xu stood in the shade of the tree, looking at the gate, but he didn't push it open. He didn't know why when he saw this ordinary gate, he suddenly saw that it had turned into a piece of wood.

"It's okay, Lao Xu, isn't it just a door, just push it open!" he kept reassuring himself.

In the depths of his heart, there seemed to be a strong hemp rope. When he took a step forward, the rope would pull tighter and hold him tight.

Is that a form of resistance, or a kind of fear? Lao Xu himself is not sure. The only thing he knew for sure was that the stronger the feeling, the more important it was that there must be something important hidden behind this door.

"It must be done, Lao Xu! Ignore it! Just rush!" Lao Xu held his breath, took a step back with his right foot, raised his heel, and grinded his toes hard twice, "Three!

Suddenly, Lao Xu kicked his legs and rushed forward, and the hemp rope in his heart seemed to know that he couldn't tie him, so he immediately relaxed and let him crash straight into the door. With a loud bang, the gate was suddenly smashed apart, and Lao Xu staggered into the yard, and it took a little effort to stand still.

He stood in the middle of the courtyard and glanced around, the inexplicable familiarity even stronger.

Lao Xu glanced at the poplar tree, but did not immediately approach. Instead, he walked to the door and twisted the doorknob twice. To his surprise, the door was locked, and this

It was a thick iron door that could not be broken open.

"Could it be...... That picture just led me to this yard, and didn't mean to let me into the house?"

Lao Xu took out the photo again and checked it carefully, and the photo did only have the yard and poplar trees, and did not reveal any part of the house. This made him wonder, because the garden was bare and weedless except for this poplar tree.

"What about the box?"

At first, Xu thought that the meaning of this photo was to let him find the house with poplar trees, and then go into the house and rummage through it, and he could find the box that locked his memory. But judging from the current situation, it only refers to this yard, and things are not so simple.

At this time, Lao Xu walked under the poplar tree and stroked it gently. Suddenly, as if sensing him, it swayed violently twice.

Lao Xu exclaimed: "Oh Mom, scare me!"

He was already mentally nervous, so any movement was extremely scary. And as he retracted his hand, the poplar tree immediately regained its composure.

"It must have something to do with you!" he pointed and circled around it, "The box must be nearby!"

So, Lao Xu looked up and down, and checked almost every inch of the tree. However, he still didn't find any clues about the chest.

Lao Xu was very unwilling, and at the same time, an idea suddenly popped up in his mind: "The box shouldn't be on the tree!"

Just thinking about it, it's better to try. Therefore, Lao Xu immediately pulled up his trouser legs, hugged the poplar tree in both hands, and insisted on climbing up. And the poor poplar tree, like a cockroach jumping on a man, frightened it to shake with all its might.

Lao Xu didn't give up so easily, even though he was so shocked that his whole body "gurgle" and more and more stars appeared in front of him, he still gritted his teeth and tried his best to climb up.

As the saying goes, hard work pays off. When his head was about to be shaken into brains, Lao Xu finally climbed to the top of the tree.

"You can't handle me!" he cheered like a victor, and began to search for chests among the branches. However, after scanning around, there was still no trace of the box, "Where's the box?"

As soon as he was distracted, the poplar seized the opportunity and threw him to the ground like a human bow. Lao Xu, who landed again, unfortunately even broke his neck.

"I ...... Go to ......"

He wanted to scold it viciously, but he couldn't mention it in one breath, and almost died of anger on the spot. The poplar shook twice with disdain, and hundreds of golden leaves fell, covering his entire body.

Lao Xu was so angry that he immediately swore a poisonous oath: "When I recover, I will cut you down!" Cut it into pieces of wood and throw it into the stove!"

After dozens of minutes, with a "click", Lao Xu's neck finally returned to its place. He tried to turn his head, and the pain almost made him lose his mind. He brushed aside the leaves and barely stood up, now focused on fulfilling his vow.

But just as he was about to go out to find a handrail, he saw golden leaves on the ground, like a golden carpet for the yard. Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he immediately knelt down in front of the tree, and with both hands vigorously picked up the leaves and sand on the ground.

"When the leaves fall into the ground, they are not on the tree, but they are buried in the ground!"
