"It is said that ...... In ancient times, we humans did not live on this continent, but from another distant continent......"

"A long, long time ago, we humans lived happily and carefree lives on another continent, and I don't know when some devils from nowhere came to this continent and began to tempt humans, and gradually, under the influence of these demons, our humans became selfish, greedy, and depraved, and then fought with each other......

"When the almighty god saw this, he was very sad and decided to punish the humans, so the god cursed the land here to make it difficult to grow crops, and it would be very difficult to get the harvest from the land......"

"Even so, mankind has not repented, but has become more indifferent, selfish, cruel, and human beings have been branded with original sin......"

"At this time, the gods began to regret the creation of human beings, and because what human beings had done had touched his bottom line, his anger could not be contained, so the gods decided to launch a natural disaster to destroy human beings and destroy human beings......

"Natural disasters began to fall, all volcanoes on the entire continent erupted at the same time, all the great rivers flooded, the rain in the sky never stopped, thunder and lightning filled the entire sky, the earth began to crack, and human beings ...... It was devastated......"

"Noah, who was the messenger of the gods, could not bear to see this, so he plucked up the courage to ask the gods to take back their destiny and stop causing harm to mankind......

"In order to save mankind, Noah prayed to the gods for seven days and seven nights, and he knelt down and could not ......"

"His sincerity finally touched the gods, and the gods saw the tragic situation on the mainland, and they also had some regrets......"

"However, by this time, it is too late, the natural disaster has already formed, the whole land is devastated, like hell, this continent is no longer suitable for human habitation......"

"In the face of this qiē, the gods are powerless......"

"In the end, it was Noah who came up with a solution, he built a ship, this ship is about 300 kilometers long, 50 kilometers wide, and 30 kilometers high, it is a super huge ship, too big to imagine......"

"Noah named it the Ark ......"

"He packed all the living creatures, humans, and even birds and beasts of the entire continent into the ark, on the one hand, to take refuge, and on the other hand, to find a new continent suitable for human habitation......"

"The ark traveled for many days in a row, and everywhere there was an endless sea, and there was no land to be seen, which made people despair, and even Noah was very depressed......

After a few dozen days, Noah opened the window of the ark and released a crow to inquire about the news, but the crow never returned. biquge.info Noah released another pigeon, and in the vast sea, the pigeon could not find a place to stay, and flew back to the ark......

After another seven days, Noah let the pigeon out again, and at dusk the pigeon flew back with an olive leaf in its beak, apparently pecked from the tree. Seven days later, Noah released the pigeons again, and this time the pigeons did not come back, which meant that they had finally found land......"

"Noah was very happy to find the new world, so he led mankind to continue to live and reproduce in this new continent, and live a happy life......

And Noah, too, became a hero, a legend. He is the savior of mankind, and people name this new continent after him, that is, the land under our feet - Noah's continent, and his name is also written into the calendar, and the calendar is counted from the day he stepped into Noah's continent, which is called the first year of Noah......"

In the west of Noah's continent, in a place called Maple Town, under a banyan tree next to Bluestone Avenue, a white-haired old man was telling mythological stories in a colorful voice, and next to him, a group of half-grown children about eleven or twelve years old were listening carefully around him, with an extremely serious expression.

In the midst of this group of children, there stood an unusually gregarious figure, a particularly thin looking child, with a pair of large eyes that sparkled and sparkled, and he had already been fascinated by it.

Unlike the children around him, due to long-term malnutrition, his body looks particularly thin, but it sets off his skull is particularly large, looking like a "little radish head", and the clothes on his body are much more torn than ordinary children, the most conspicuous places are patched, and some places have broken holes, revealing fair skin, and his hair is also unkempt.

The old man was a resident of Maple Leaf Town, and he was telling the children the story of "Noah's Ark", the truth of which is unverifiable, but it is widely circulated.

"Grandpa, you said that Noah's ark is a big ship, and he loaded the entire continent into it, how big does this big ship have to be?"

While the old man was foaming at the mouth, he was interrupted by an inopportune voice, and the old man saw that it was the skinniest child, and his name was Ron.

The old man was interrupted by Ron's words, but he was not angry at all, and said with a smile, "The ship that will fit all people and creatures into it, this ship must be very big, too big for you to imagine." ”

Ron let out a soft "oh" and then asked with interest, "Then how does Noah know which direction to go to find the New World, and what if he can't?"

The old man was obviously stunned, he had never thought about this question, and said in a squeak, "This ...... Reading must be instructed by the gods......"

When he said this, the old man didn't know the bottom of his heart, in that legend, there was no such thing......

"Since the gods are omnipotent, why don't we restore the original continent? Wouldn't it be better? Also, all the creatures on those continents are on that ship, how do they live?what to eat?Is there food on the ship?, how long can it last?" Ron asked, tilting his head, his question flying out of his mouth like a cannon, and then he simply broke the sand nest and asked.

"This ...... This one...... Belch...... Uh...... "The old man really can't answer now."

At this time, the group of children listening next to him were dissatisfied, and one by one the tall children said, "Hey...... Ron, you listen to stories, why do you ask so many questions?"

"Go, stay, we're listening to the story, what are you going to do. ”

"yes, you don't want to hear it, we still want to hear it......"

These children shouted one after another, and began to chase Ron, their eyes showed a look of disgust, not because of anything else, Ron is a famous street child in Maple Leaf Town, only a lame grandfather depends on him, to put it bluntly, he is a beggar, although those children who listen to stories are not born into rich families, but they are also commoners' children, in terms of status is much higher than him, naturally they look down on Ron as a beggar.

Seeing the children arguing and arguing, the old man lost interest in telling stories, so he stood up and patted the dirt on his body, and said, "That's all for today's story, let's all go back." ”

After saying that, he ignored those people and turned to leave.

Although the children were reluctant to give up, they had no stories to hear, so they dispersed in a hurry, leaving Ron alone at the scene.

The autumn wind blew and blew up a few leaves, and Ron couldn't help but feel a little cold when he stood on the empty avenue, and he couldn't help but tighten his clothes, and said to himself, "That's the end? My question hasn't been asked yet, what happened to Noah in the end? Where is the ark now......?" he shook his head helplessly.

As a street child, Ron has been stared at by many people since he was a child, and the ridicule has made him numb, but he didn't finish the story, and he felt a little regretful in his heart.

Ron looked up at the sky, there was still some time before the sun went down, and his mind came alive again.

"Hey, it's still early, I'll try my luck on the Maple Forest Ancient Road......"

Immediately afterward, Ron spread his feet and ran in the direction of the Maple Grove Ancient Road.

The Maple Grove Ancient Road is the only way to go back and forth to Maple Town in the west, and countless adventurers will pass through here, and this is the place where Ron is coming.

In the maple leaf road, the maple leaves that fall all over the ground are paved, and the autumn wind rises, blowing a piece of withered yellow.

"Well, just wait here for a while......"

Ron looked around at no one, found a clean place and sat down, looking vigilantly at the uninhabited Maple Grove Ancient Road, his ears pricked up, as if waiting for something.

The Maple Leaf Town is located in the middle of nowhere, not a lively place, with no resources, no treasures, and no beautiful scenery, only the autumn autumn maple leaves are worth seeing, but this obviously does not attract those adventurers.

People who walk on the Maple Leaf Ancient Road every day can count them on ten fingers, and it is normal for no one to pass by for a day.

The life of the townspeople of Maple Leaf Town is peaceful, like a pool of stagnant water, the townspeople work every day at sunrise and rest at sunset, and their small days are dull and fulfilling.

The people here are very simple, even for penniless vagrants like Ron and his grandfather, the townspeople of Maple Leaf Town did not drive them away rudely, they even reached out to help, and whoever had uneaten leftovers would take the initiative to take it out.

Over the years, Ron can be said to have grown up in the small town of Maple Grove, but because his nutrition is not very good, he has not grown tall, and even looks a little thin.

Ron and his grandfather lived in Maple Leaf Town, they lived in the only small river in the town, under the bridge on the side, and built a shed casually, even if they had a home, his grandfather's name was Zari, his legs were disabled, he couldn't walk, so he naturally couldn't do any work, and every day he pushed a four-wheeled flatbed truck to the bridge with his own hands, waiting for the townspeople to give alms.

In Maple Leaf Town, you can basically get some leftovers every day, and sometimes you can get a few copper coins for festivals or happy events in the townspeople's homes.

In the morning, Ron would help the townspeople with some work, there was no pay, it would be good to have a meal, and in the afternoon, he would come to this maple leaf road and wait quietly, waiting until it was dark, and then reluctantly returning to his humble "home".

Since Ron was eight years old, this habit has persisted for seven years, until now, Ron is fifteen years old.

What exactly is he waiting for?
