Lin Tantan had always thought that she was a tree. She never expected that she had a father and a mother. She felt a little strange at first, but she didn’t know if it was because she had an inexplicable sense of familiarity with them, or because they were so kind to her, she quickly accepted the fact that she had parents.
Moreover, he feels at ease and thinks of himself as a baby, being carried around every day without his feet ever touching the ground.
Is this what it feels like to be pampered
Later she found out that she was a cripple and couldn't even touch the ground. But it didn't matter, she was a tree anyway, and trees couldn't walk.
And her parents really love her.
She ate and drank happily, watched her favorite cartoons, and had a bunch of toys to play with. Except for the constant pain in her body, there was nothing wrong with her.
She was almost immersed in this world, when suddenly one night, because she drank an extra bowl of soup, she woke up because she had to urinate. When she woke up, she heard someone crying in the living room.
It's her beautiful mother!
She immediately wanted to run and see what was going on, but her legs were too inconvenient. She looked at the bed, which was not high at all, but even if it was not high, she could only crawl down if she wanted to.
At this time, my mother spoke up: "The doctor said that we don't have much time to talk about the current situation."
Lin Tantan was stunned.
There was a moment of silence in the living room. She heard her father sigh deeply, and after a long while he said, "Don't let the child know. Satisfy her with whatever she wants to eat and play."
Mom cried even harder, but muffledly, as if she was covering her tears with her hands.
Lin Tantan was also feeling depressed.
She looked at her feet, and another explanation came to her not-so-bright mind. Yes, she was a tree. Although she didn't know why she suddenly became their child, as a tree she would definitely leave. What would happen to her parents after she left
They will definitely be very sad!
She thought about it and came up with a good idea.
The next day at the dinner table, when they asked her what she wanted, she looked up and said innocently, "I want a brother or sister."
Both adults were stunned.
Lin Tan Tan continued, "Dad, Mom, is it okay? I want a brother or sister to play with me."
The two adults looked at each other. Lin Tantan went to look at his mother's belly and said to himself, "When will a brother or sister come out? If it's a sister, I will dress her up beautifully. If it's a brother..." How should I take care of the brother? Lin Tantan thought for a long time and made a final decision, "Let him carry me on his back when he grows up to play everywhere."
So, a year later, her younger brother was born. She looked at the small, soft ball in the crib and wondered how long it would take for him to grow big enough to carry himself.
Human babies grow so slowly!
Lin Tantan felt that she could not wait until that time, and sure enough, she soon fell ill. Her body was in more and more pain, and her time of wakefulness became shorter and shorter. The family, which had been happy for a while because of the arrival of a new life, became gloomy again.
But this time it doesn’t matter even if she really leaves. Mom and Dad have a new child, and they will quickly cheer up for the new baby.
…
Beside the big tree, the old man was almost mad. He looked at the soul trapped in the illusion and felt so disappointed that his parents, brother, and other flesh and blood relatives couldn't wake her up and make her remember her true identity!
He looked hesitantly at the remaining half ball of light in his hand, frowned, and finally reluctantly sent this half ball of light in.
…
Lin Tantan opened her eyes again, thinking she would return to her real body—the tree. Unexpectedly, she was still in the body of a human cub. Her parents surrounded her. Her mother tried hard to hold back her tears: "Tantan, are you hungry? Do you want to eat anything?"
Lin Tantan was a little confused, but he quickly adjusted himself and said what he wanted to eat.
Then she slowly realized that she had just undergone a rescue.
It couldn't be called a rescue. The doctors couldn't do anything about her illness. Sending her to the hospital could only provide some better medical measures. She still had to rely on herself, and she was so tenacious that she didn't die.
But she felt even worse and looked a little listless. After being taken home, her father held her on the sofa and told her a story. Suddenly, a program trailer played on the screen in front.
"The truth buried by time, the hero whose name was forgotten, why is there no clear record of him in the official history, what role did he play in that apocalyptic upheaval? Tonight at 8 o'clock, let us walk into history and into the life of the legendary figure of the apocalypse - Ye Xiao."
She stared blankly at the picture on the screen. The last picture was a blurry figure of a man. Although it was a little blurry, it still couldn't hide his charm.
Lin Tantan suddenly said in a daze: "Dad, that guy is more handsome than you!"
Father Lin: “…”
So that night, the family of three, plus a breastfeeding baby, watched together this episode of the special feature "Into the End of History: The Forgotten King".
After watching the film in excitement and silence, Lin Tan Tan asked his father: "Dad, is he really the strongest man in the end times? Is he really that powerful? Why did the first president erase his name?"
Questions kept coming out of her mind, and she was eager to know everything about that person.
Dad knew something about it. He said with a complicated expression, "When my dad, your grandfather, was young, this guy was also very popular for a while."
The mother, with red eyes, also said: "My mother, that is, your grandmother is also his fan."
So Lin Tantan learned a lot from his parents' stories.
It turns out that the archaeological craze about the end of the world has risen and fallen over the past three hundred years. Although the government does not support such activities, people's enthusiasm for exploring the end of the world has never really died out.
As for why the government did not support it, we have to start with the first president.
The first president’s surname was Zhou, or rather, the five presidents before him were all surnamed Zhou, and each of them served for a long time. In the first hundred years of the new era, the entire country was almost dominated by people with the surname Zhou.
Zhou's rise to fame has always been controversial.
The first president did not make much contribution in the apocalypse. After Ye Xiao blew himself up, all the prestigious people in the country emerged and fought against each other, wanting to get a bigger piece of the pie in the new era that was about to come.
The first president was the winner, not because he was the most powerful, but because he was the best at making trouble. He claimed to have known Ye Xiao for a long time and regarded himself as his good friend. He used Ye Xiao's name and did everything to win over Ye Xiao's men and gained a lot of support. But after he took the position, his policies changed.
During the more than twenty years that he was in power, including the more than a hundred years that his sons, grandsons, great-grandsons, and great-great-grandsons were in power, all traces of Ye Xiao were almost completely wiped out.
It seems that this will make Zhou a savior.
But there are still people who remember Ye Xiao, and some people remember other people who have contributed to the survival of mankind in the doomsday, and remember some bases that were once glorious.
Moreover, the Zhou faction's dominance also hindered the interests of many people, so those people began to plan to overthrow the Zhou faction. The charge of distorting history and fooling the people was obviously a good entry point.
Therefore, the buried powerful people of the end times began to become the research topic of experts and scholars, which set off a wave of archaeological fever, among which Ye Xiao was the top priority.
Those people began to study Ye Xiao's life, began to verify his achievements, began to sort out his network of relationships at that time, and began to search for the few remaining pictures and text materials about him.
Then the experience of this strong man was dug out bit by bit, his birthplace, his team, the base he founded... and so on. This process experienced many obstacles from many aspects, and the scholars who conducted the corresponding research were scolded by the uninformed people. However, this name still entered people's field of vision with the glory it deserves.
However, at this time, the Zhou faction was forced to compromise under pressure from all sides and gradually handed over power. The politicians who had promoted these investigations saw that their goals had been achieved and simply gave up on restoring history - no one wanted to create a few heroes to steal popularity while they were in power.
However, the previous "archaeological fever" has already accumulated a lot of popularity for Ye Xiao and his team, and secret research is still being carried out spontaneously.
When Lin Tantan's ancestors were young, there was a new wave of archaeological craze, so her grandparents had all heard of his name, and her parents were also aware of him.
Ye Xiao was truly recognized by the official authorities not long after Lin Tantan was born. The new president came to power. He was an old boy with an excessive sense of justice and even some idealism in some aspects. The first official document he issued after taking office was to restore history and vindicate the heroes of the end of the world.
Then the whole country was excited.
After a series of policies were introduced and a series of related programs were recorded and broadcasted, this group of people became popular, and Ye Xiao naturally became the representative of the heroes. The aura of the strongest man in the doomsday, his handsome appearance, and strong personal charm made countless fans fall for him.
And tonight, Lin Tantan became one of them.
At this time she already had a strange feeling.
It was as if the same thing happened twice. The first time was probably the first time she really knew Ye Xiao. It was pure curiosity, admiration, and worship, just like an ordinary child seeing a tall and heroic policeman and aspiring to learn from him. The second time was now. She seemed to have known Ye Xiao. When she heard his name again, her mood was even more subtle, and there was a sense of pride in her admiration.
In short, she began to search for things about him. She would not have known until she searched that there were so many stories on the Internet. Even though most of them were mixed with unofficial history and fan fiction, they all seemed true, and she loved reading them anyway.
There was a video among them that she had watched countless times. It was also played in the program. It was the only video footage of Ye Xiao that had survived in the world. It was a speech he made when he first established the Zhengyang Base.
In the video, which is a bit old, a man with handsome features and a tall stature looks at the people below the stage. His expression is calm, without a trace of official tone or even a sense of ceremony, as if he is speaking in an ordinary way. However, his voice is so calm and firm. He said: "No matter when, no matter what situation, never give up, never abandon, and never betray."
Lin Tan Tan watched it over and over again. Every time she watched it, she felt a little dry in her heart. Then after one of the times, she suddenly woke up and opened her eyes.
She looked down at herself. Her body had no specific shape. She seemed to be hiding in a tree. All the things that had happened before flashed through her mind like fragments. She suddenly realized that she was not dead, but was forced out of Lin Tantan's body, and then came to this tree in a daze.
"Humph, finally woke up." An old man's voice sounded angrily. Lin Tantan raised her head and saw a strange old man. Although she had never seen him before, she recognized him for some reason and shouted in surprise: "Teacher?!"
"Hehe, you still recognized me, not bad." The old man still said in a weird voice, "I, your parents and your brother couldn't wake you up, and you had to fight with that brat. It seems that we don't have much status in your heart."
Lin Tantan was stunned for a moment, but soon realized that what she had just experienced was something that had happened to her before, and the teacher put her back in that environment in order to wake her up.
She felt her face getting hot and yelled, "Teacher..."
After shouting, I felt something was wrong: "You didn't appear just now."
The old man exploded: "Then why didn't you respond when I called you by the tree before?"
Lin Tan was choked for a moment: "I, I can't hear what you are saying?"
"Yeah, I can't hear clearly. Someone hacked your brain and you don't remember anything. You've become completely autistic, but you still stare at that idiot in your family every day."
"Really? I just take a look occasionally." Lin Tan said in a low voice.
"Then why don't you look at me once in a while? If you don't react to anything, do I need to throw you into an illusion to stimulate you?"
And in the illusion, didn’t he want to appear? He was supposed to be the last one, but the students didn’t give him the chance. When they saw that boy, they were completely dizzy and woke up before he could appear.
I'm so angry.
Lin Tantan was speechless now. He coughed and scratched his face: "Teacher, you should become the same as before." She was very gentle when she was a lady, but now she looks like an old man and her temper has become bad.
