Chapter 49 The Tree of Life

This time Yan Qi didn't fall into the sea, nor could he stand on the ground. He fell directly on the roof of a family, smashing a big hole in the roof of the family, and he fell unconscious.

After waking up, Yan Qi found that he was lying on a bed, and when he got up, it was a dim room, which seemed familiar.

"Grandpa, he's awake." A little girl with shofar braids saw him outside the window, then turned her head and shouted.

An old man on crutches walked into the room, "Are you awake?"

Yan Qi squinted at him, "Boss?" The owner of the restaurant was only in his 1900s when he left in 40, but he should be in his 60s now.

The old man walked quickly to the bed, "Xiaoqi, is it really you?!"

The boss is so much older, but he is still the same as before, Yan Qikuang blinked, he will not be regarded as a monster, right? "Actually... I don't know you, I... I just heard about you."

The boss wasn't too surprised, "Yeah, I also said, no matter how similar it is, it can't be, you are his son, right? You have the same birthmark."

The facial muscles of Yan Qi, who was regarded as his own son, twitched, "...Yes, yes, he talked about you, and even drew your portrait." Otherwise, it is really impossible to explain why he knew each other.

The boss nodded, "Well, he can draw. Where is he now? He suddenly left without saying goodbye. People in the town have been looking for him for two days."

Yan Qi smiled awkwardly, "He's in Yangzhou now."

"Going to such a far place? Speaking of which, you are the same as him. You suddenly appeared in the town. You are even more powerful. You even smashed a hole in the roof of the old Liu's house. How are you? You have been lying down for two days gone."

Is it?Yan Qi touched his body, "I'm fine." He just didn't know where the things on his body went. He looked around, and finally saw two oiled paper bags on the table not far away, which were still well wrapped. "Boss, is this your home?"

"Yes." The boss said, "When your father came to Kunyu for the second time, he rented this room from me, but he seemed to have something urgent to leave, and his friend lived here for a long time."

Yan Qi hurriedly asked, "You mean the time in 1905?"

"Yes." The boss pulled a bench and sat down. "The first time I saw your dad was in 1900. He lived in the town for half a year and helped me in my shop. Then he left suddenly. Yes, before I left, I told me to fill all the five large tanks in the store with water. Thanks to him, the store was set alight with firecrackers during Chinese New Year. If it weren’t for those tanks of water, the whole street would have been burned No! The second time I saw him was in 1905, and, strange to say, I didn't remember him at first, until the day after he left."

Yan Qi thought: That's normal, because the thing you recalled on the first day hadn't really happened, so it was only a vague shadow there. If you are a very powerful non-human race, maybe you can still remember it Be a little clearer, but you're just an ordinary person, and it's normal not to remember.By the next day, I've gone back in time, and everything that should have happened has happened, so you have that memory.

Yan Qi asked: "What about his friend? You said he lived here for a while?"

The boss nodded, "Yes, he is a thin and thin man, very capable. He learned how to fish for three days, and he became the most capable fisherman in this area."

Is Dodden catching fish with his tentacles?Yan Qi exclaimed: "It's amazing! Is he still here?"

"Leave early, he stayed here for three years."

"..." Hearing that Du Deng was so patient and waited for three years, Yan Qi felt deeply guilty, "Where did he go? Did he leave any words?"

The boss thought for a while, "The day before he left, he said something strange: I have paid off what I owed them. The next day, he disappeared. He is a mysterious person just like your father. Just come, just go.”

Yan Qi asked: "Who did he owe?"

The boss shook his head, "He didn't say."

Later that day, Yan Qi finally found the calendar by himself, and found that it was May 1930, 5.

Yan Qi leaned against the wall, looking at Yun Juan Yun Shu in the sky, he was late for a long time, luckily Du Deng had already left, otherwise the first thing he saw would be to kill him?He tried his vines, they were still there, but they looked thin and malnourished, maybe because he had torn them off.

Because the light vine was not right all the time, Yan Qi had no choice but to live in the town again, and his previous money was out of date again, he thought complainingly: Why do these banknotes have to be renewed so quickly.Fortunately, he has skills, and the boss's restaurant is still open - it is estimated to become a century-old restaurant, so he went back to the restaurant to continue to help.

Yan Qi still cooks the dishes he cooked back then, and the boss is full of praise after eating, "That's right, it's as good as your father's cooking!"

Yan Qi smiled, now he won't get goosebumps when he hears "dad".

Yan Qi stayed longer this time than last time. It took nearly ten months for his light vines to grow back. With this experience, he didn't dare to break them casually again.

When leaving, Yan Qi didn't try to save trouble and just disappeared from the room. Instead, he took a carriage to a nearby city and took a train like an ordinary person. Of course, he would choose a suitable time to disappear.

Before leaving, he formally bid farewell to the boss, "Boss, I'm leaving, and I'll come back to see you when I have a chance."

The boss smiled and said, "Okay, say hello to your dad for me! Say I miss him all the time."

Yan Qi endured the sourness in his eyes, "He also remembers you, but he has been busy..."

The boss nodded again and again, "I know, I know. Be careful on the way, your child is much older than your father, I am very relieved of you, so I won't nag you any more."

Yan Qi smiled, yes, he was forced to come here to cultivate himself.

On the way, Yan Qi got out of the carriage ahead of time, and then found a hiding place to let his vines grow. This time, he let them play freely. He really doesn't want to live in this era anymore...

In an instant, the foreground has changed. Many familiar non-human races with strange shapes appeared in front of Yan Qi. The trees, flowers, plants and buildings are also familiar. This is the Garden of Everything. Very good, he is back!He smiled slightly.

"Senior, are you from the Luo Yin tribe?"

Yan Qi looked at the animal-eared girl who was a head shorter than herself. She looked a bit like Tintin, but she should be from the dog clan or the wolf clan. "Tell me what year it is now."

"June 2012, 6. Senior, you are the legendary Luo Yin tribe, right? They said you disappeared..." While the girl was speaking, several boys and girls surrounded her.

In June 2012, Yan Qi and Qin Mo separated at the end of November 6, well, it has been a year and a half.He stayed in Kunyu in the past for almost a year and a half, and it seems that his light tendril just brought him back to the correct time.He looked at the people around him, "Are you all from the 2010th class?" Yan Qi entered the school in the 11th year.

"Hmm." Everyone nodded in unison.

Yan Qi asked: "So, it's an outdoor class now? Where's your teacher?"

"It's Saturday!"

Well, Yan Qi has not cared about the day of the week for a long time, "Do you know Ding Ding?"

The animal-eared girl said, "I know! Senior is so powerful, even boys can't beat her!"

Yan Qi was stunned, it was unimaginable, "Du Yi? He Li?" And, "Long Xue, do you know? They are still here now, right?"

"I know! They're all here! I like Senior Sister Long the most..."

"Yan Qi."

Yan Qi looked up, and saw Principal Kuang coming. He showed a big smile, ran over, bent over and hugged the fat old man, "Principal, I'm back."

The juniors not far away all opened their mouths wide open. It really is the legendary senior of the Luo Yin tribe who dare to treat the principal like this.

Principal Kuang patted Yan Qi on the back and said cheerfully, "It's good to be back! It's good to be back!"

After a while, Yan Qi let go, and looked at Yang Chi who came over with him, "Teacher."

Yang Chi nodded, "Let's go, go to the office to talk."

"Okay." Yan Qi asked, "Teacher, how much taller have I grown?" He felt that Principal Kuang and Yang Chi were shorter than he remembered, but of course Yang Chi was still taller than him.

This question is really... Yang Chi looked at him, "10 centimeters. Where did you come from?" Seeing that the clothes Yan Qi was wearing were very retro, and so were the shoes, which were actually handmade cloth shoes.

"I finally came back from Kunyu in 1930." Yan Qi had an unbearable expression, and then followed Yang Chi's gaze to look at himself, "My clothes must have been short... By the way, principal , my parents... I have disappeared for so long, what happened to them, are they in a hurry?" He felt guilty and impatient.

Principal Kuang said with a smile: "Fortunately, at first I excused that you were too busy with your studies to go back, and then I excused that you went abroad to be an exchange student, and they have been applying for a passport to go abroad. Of course, I had to use some small tricks to delay. They, no, you're back." He said it lightly, but it was only now that he was actually relieved.

Yan Qi was a little puzzled, "My parents didn't wonder why I didn't call them?"

"Hit, artificially synthesize your voice, and try to keep the call time to the shortest possible time each time. Your parents can't be sure that someone is pretending to be you."

Yan Qi wiped the cold sweat that didn't exist on his brow, "They didn't ask for the video?"

"Video can also be artificially synthesized, and this is easier than sound."

"..."

Back in the principal's office, Yan Qi asked: "Principal, do you have any food here? I'm hungry." He guessed there would be, since Kuang Qiezhi always had snacks in his pocket back then.

Principal Kuang opened the drawer, took out a huge biscuit box, opened it, and there were all kinds of snacks inside. He poured a cup of tea for Yan Qi and himself, and then they sat down around the biscuit box and ate with relish.Yang Chi looked at them speechlessly.

Principal Kuang said: "I will inform your parents in a while that you are going back to China, and then you can go home in two days."

Yan Qi swallowed a piece of beef jerky in a hurry, and then said, "Thank you principal."

Principal Kuang asked: "What happened this time? Didn't you go to Qin Mo's house? What happened afterwards?"

Speaking of Qin Mo, Yan Qi had long wanted to ask, "Principal, where is Qin Mo now?"

"There is very little news about him, but a few months ago, I heard that he appeared in Liufeng Forest."

Yan Qi was a little disappointed, "At that time, when I went to his house, he said he was leaving... Later, I wanted to visit him when he was a child, and then it became troublesome..." He didn't want to say that the Dragon King used a belt It was about Qin Molai threatening him, "Later, I went a little far, went to 1900, and got stuck there, but found a strange thing." The "Paper of Life" he brought back "Tree" and took it out, "This painting was given to the owner of Kunyu's restaurant by the Dragon King."

Principal Kuang and Yang Chi both asked suspiciously, "Are you really him?"

Yan Qi nodded, "Although I can't say that I can recognize him when he turns into ashes, it is indeed him."

Principal Kuang looked at the painting, "Is this painting a tree?"

"Yeah, it looks like it is."

Yang Chi said: "It's more like leaf veins. The tree is three-dimensional and the branches are intertwined. The tree in this painting is flat. It is more reasonable to say that it is the leaf veins."

Yan Qi said, "Oh, the veins in the shape of a tree, it's hard enough to find a tree, but to find a leaf, even if that leaf still exists in this world, you won't be able to find it in your lifetime, right?"

Principal Kuang asked a very good question, "Why do you want to look for it?"

Yan Qi said: "The Dragon King said he wanted this painting. It's strange, he gave this painting away, and then wanted to get it back."

Principal Kuang frowned slightly, "He asked you to pick up that painting?"

As if he said something that shouldn't be said, Yan Qi said with a smile, "That's right."

Principal Kuang shook his head slightly, "Don't do such a dangerous thing in the future."

"it is good."

Yan Qi left the "Tree of Life" to Principal Kuang, but he still had a copy—he made another copy just to be on the safe side.

As soon as Yan Qi left the principal's office, he saw a group of acquaintances, Ding Ding rushed over to give him a hug, then thumped his shoulder hard, "Where did you go?"

Yan Qi smiled and said, "Just wandering around." He smiled at Du Yi, Long Xue and He Li, "Hi, long time no see."

Du Yi said: "Are you going out alone this time?"

Yan Qi shook his head, "No, I also have an unlucky companion this time." He pursed his lips and made a troubled expression, "And it's very unlucky."

Ding Ding gave him a blank look, "I told you to mess around?!" She has already experienced the insecurity of time travel.

Long Xue didn't understand, so: "Did something happen?"

Ding Ding turned around and smiled at her, "It's nothing, it's just that Yan Qi has done bad things again." She and Long Xue have become best friends.

"Oh." Long Xue nodded, but she still didn't understand, and cutely opened her eyes wide.

Du Yi said with a smile or not: "This time is Qin Mo?"

Yan Qi shouted: "Don't talk nonsense, of course not." No matter what he didn't lose Qin Mo.

He Li next to him also said: "No, Qin Mo told me before going home that he has already suspended his studies." Therefore, although a few people who went out with Yan Qi disappeared, Qin Mo was not among them.

Yan Qi smiled, and didn't know what to feel in his heart for a while, but Qin Mo thought carefully, and when he was about to leave, he still remembered to say to He Li, "Did he call later?"

"Called several times to find you, but you were not there, and then I didn't call again."

Yan Qi lowered his eyes and smiled, "Oh, so."
