Now that there is a task.

Naturally, Finn doesn't stay at home tinkering with plants.

He changed into clean clothes, took out a satchel from the cabinet in the greenhouse, and led Lindsay in the direction of the lord's manor.

On the way, considering the future teaching, he did not forget to ask Lindsay about the situation, so as to prepare the content of the future teaching:

"Son, do you know how to read?"

Lindsey replied honestly:

"I know the lingua franca, listening, speaking, reading and writing are not a problem, but the more remote grammar and writing are not so good."

Finn nodded in satisfaction and asked another question:

"What about [Dead Words]?"

Lindsay looked dazed:

"Dead words? What is that, I don't know. ”

Finn didn't answer directly, but in a clever way:

"There are countless animals and plants in the universe. And in every world, new species may be discovered at any time. What do you think would happen if the people who found out about them were random names? ”

Lindsey knows a thing:

"Then the phenomenon of duplicate naming will be very serious, and the accumulation of this in the long run will seriously disrupt the research of relevant aspects!"

"That's right." Finn then went on to explain with satisfaction, "So in response to this situation, the life scientists of Volcano City have created a script for naming things to clearly designate each species of plant and animal. ”

Lindsey naturally understood.

After all, the Latin name of plants on the earth stems from a similar reason.

But he was also a little curious. There is no Internet in this world, and how can life scientists communicate with each other to achieve a unified name for species? This is a huge gap across the world!

"Mr. Finn, what should I do if two people discover a species at the same time, but they have completely different names?"

"What a smart kid." Finn clearly liked Lindsay's cleverness. He complimented him, and then went on to explain, "The naming is not immediate, and its model comes from the Volcanic Canon, which is updated every 10 years. ”

"If a person discovers a new species, he should add the word [proposed] after the name. The suffix will not be removed until the sample and name of the species are sent to Volcano City for confirmation in the Volcano Dictionary. ”

The two asked and answered, and time passed quickly.

Before the sun could shorten their shadows on the ground, the two had already arrived at An Rui's manor.

The people of the manor also know this old and young.

I know better that Miss Anna at home made a big fuss yesterday.

While the doorman led Lindsay and Finn to the back of the manor, someone immediately went to inform the lord and his daughter.

Soon, Lindsey and Finn were in the woodside clearing of yesterday.

The old botanist sees a zelkova tree lying on the ground.

He frowned at first sight, and his expression became more and more ugly as he crouched down to inspect the cut in the stump.

"Essentia?"

"An Rui, this guy cuts down a tree, and he still has to use his own skills? Is this a child showing off his abilities? ”

“……”

Lindsay stood behind, not saying a word, and smiled sheepishly.

A few minutes later.

Anrui and Anna appear together at the back door of the manor.

The lord of the hidden frontier, when he saw the botanist for the first time, immediately began to ask for credit for his daughter:

"Anna, look! I've even invited your Grandpa Finn over! ”

"I'll ignore you!"

The little girl shook her head and ignored her father.

She shook off An Rui, who was smiling stiffly, and ran directly to Finn's side, her eyes full of anticipation:

"Grandpa Finn, is there any chance of this tree recovering?"

Witness this.

Lindsey had expected to see new Awoken feats, such as reviving the beech tree.

But what happened next was beyond his expectations.

Finn, who was squatting beside the beech tree, touched the little girl's head and said softly:

"Child, the wounds of life can be healed, but death is difficult to cross."

Anna understood, and immediately choked up:

"But, but I ......"

At this time, the elderly botanist reached out and stroked the surface of the zelkova tree.

The stump, which was already lifeless, began to take on a new change as a stream of life was injected. The trunk of the tree, which had been lifeless, dried up quickly, but in the crack of the stump, a young shoot suddenly grew.

The seedling is small in stature and grows rapidly in miniature, eventually bearing fruit and flowers.

After a few minutes, the seedlings died.

And three small brown triangle-like seeds fell into Finn's hands and were placed in front of Anna by him.

"Son, this is the seed of this zelkova tree."

"His life has come to an end, but you can cultivate his second life yourself, which is also a precious experience."

Anna stared blankly at the seed in her palm.

She looked at the fallen beech tree, and then at the seed in her palm.

Eventually, the girl nodded deeply to Finn, her voice childish, but with a serious assurance:

"I'll definitely do my best!"

The matter is taken care of.

Anna and her father's crisis is finally resolved.

After calming the child, Anrui gratefully sent Finn to the door.

"Finn, I'm sorry for you this time! Otherwise, I really don't know how to deal with this little girl in my family! ”

The botanist looked at An Rui and shook his head:

"Don't think it's easy."

"Anrui, how long do you think it will take for a zelkova tree to grow from germination to maturity?"

An Rui said tentatively:

"Three...... 5. About seven years? ”

"At least fifty years!"

Finn said angrily:

"If you want to cultivate this thing well, you have to go to the forest and find something to make me into a special fertilizer!"

Telling Anrui what he needed, Finn took Lindsay back home.

On the way, Lindsay has a new problem.

However, he saw that Finn was a little tired, so when the two of them had gone home and changed their clothes, Lindsay leaned in and asked:

"Teacher Finn, I just heard you say that Uncle Anrui seems to be quite old?"

Finn smiled and asked:

"Who do you think looks older, him or me?"

Lindsey tentatively spoke:

"Could it be Uncle Anrui......

"That's right." Finn directly affirmed, "Don't look at him as an uncle, but in fact, that body is the result of the combined action of life essence and his skills. That guy, in fact, is almost 150 years old! ”

Lindsay immediately thought of Anrui's daughter, Anna, who was in her early teens this year.

"But, it's his daughter!"

Finn continued earnestly:

"That's his luck."

"Lindsay, the body of the awakened is affected by the essentia in the body, and it is usually difficult to give birth to an heir. And this probability will become more and more difficult as the number of times your skill is sublimated. ”

"If you want to have a baby, my advice is to deal with it as soon as possible before the age of 25. At that time, your essentia should not have been sublimated to three times, and it is the most suitable time. ”

Lindsay was a little embarrassed by the question.

But Finn was not shy about it at all, and explained to him in a serious and careful manner the problems of the Awoken's breeding.

The law can be simply called - the stronger the strength, the harder it is to have children.

"Lindsay, people and plants are also life."

"Just like the zelkova seed just now, he gathered the life of the original zelkova tree, and he was a little baby......"

Following this thread, Finn began to introduce dialogue into real teaching.

He taught Lindsay about botany, and he also taught the reading and writing of the Dead Script.

In the middle of studying, the time soon came to the afternoon.

When Lindsay felt that today's study was coming to an end and he was ready to go home and rest.

Bang!

Finn's door was pushed open in an instant.

A woman dressed in a leather coat and carrying a bow and arrows on her back burst in, and in a few strides she came to the study.

She stood in front of Lindsay, her eyes shining:

"Boy, I can't wait!"

"You don't have to come over tomorrow just for me!"
