The next morning, Lindsay was woken up from bed by the sun again.

He had breakfast and studied writing with Hong Yue as usual.

This is his third day of studying with Hongyue.

The progress of the other two languages ​​is not that fast, but [General Text], a project that only requires learning to read and write, has once again filled up the experience bar, and has broken through [Beginner] and reached a new level - [Mastery].

The moment the skill is upgraded.

Lindsay's use of lingua franca has reached the point where she can handle any normal communication, and fluent listening, speaking, reading and writing is no problem.

The skill name of [Universal Text] on the panel has officially become [Universal Language], proving its wide applicability.

Then, Lindsay set off.

Just like what An Rui said yesterday, he will go to the botanist Finn's house on the second day to learn about plants from the elder, and on the third day he will go to the hunter Dan's house.

These three awakened ones, plus Lindsay’s godmother Hongyue.

Each of them took a one-day teaching rotation to provide long-term guidance to Lindsay.

Saying goodbye to Hongyue, Lindsay entered the town along the gravel road.

He still came to the square in the center of the town and walked south from under the statue of the great adventurer.

That's the direction where Finn, the botanist, lives.

However, unlike An Rui's lord's manor, Finn, the awakened person's residence, looks like an ordinary wooden house from the front, with the sides covered by lush vines.

But it is winter now, and the leaves on the wall have all withered, leaving only some dry vines lying on it.

"here it is……"

Lindsay turned slightly to the side and looked back across the cabin.

Finn lives on the edge of town.

Behind his cabin, swathes of forest were cleared and plowed into farmland. As the name suggests, botanists are responsible for the cultivation of crops in distant frontiers.

Just like Master Bai Lin from Lindsay's hometown, he is also responsible for growing food in Anweil ​​Village.

But it’s also due to the onset of winter.

Under the influence of the cold weather, Lindsay could only see some radish and cabbage leaves, which were still growing stubbornly out of the ground.

Bang bang bang——

"Mr. Finn, are you home?"

"I am Lindsay, and I will come to study with you as arranged today."

Lindsay first heard the sound of slow footsteps, and after a few breaths, the door in front of him was opened.

An old man with gray hair appeared in front of him.

This old awakened person's body is slightly jagged, his skin appears dark and rough, but his eyes are bright.

He was wearing a simple linen robe, with an earthy gray apron hanging on his chest, dotted with many spots of fallen soil.

"Kid, you are Lindsay."

Finn smiled and ushered Lindsay into the room.

Walking inside this wooden house, Lindsay discovered that there was something special about it.

Although the outside looks no different from other houses in the town, Finn's cabin has only three rooms inside. The entire wooden house is divided into three parts: front, middle and back.

The room at the front is the smallest.

This is a front room with a fireplace, and the kitchen is a small pot set up on the fireplace. All Finn's daily needs are met here.

Go further back.

The second room is much larger than the front hall.

But almost every wall here is lined with bookshelves. Around an old desk in the center, there are baskets containing rolls of paper on the ground.

What particularly struck Lindsay was that there were only two chairs.

One of them was old and badly worn by the years, but the other one was completely new.

Finn lives here alone.

Probably just to welcome him as a student, he bought a new chair.

Then, there is the largest and most back room in the entire wooden house.

Saying this is a room is actually a bit inaccurate.

Because of passing through the door of the study.

The last room, which is the largest, is semi-open.

The end connected to the wooden house has wooden walls and ceilings, but the end leading to the farmland in the distance is almost entirely covered with glass, with areas divided according to the different needs of the plants.

Lindsay could recognize it at a glance. It was a room that resembled a glass conservatory in an 18th-century monastery. A variety of plants were planted there, including the radishes and cabbages he had just seen outside.

"Child, wait for me for a moment."

"I have some work on hand that I haven't finished yet."

When Lindsay came over, Finn was working with the soil under an emerald seedling.

After the students returned, he continued his work without slacking off, patiently and meticulously transplanting the seedling and transferring it to another greenhouse compartment.

"call--"

After completing this task, Finn breathed a sigh of relief. He took off his apron and took Lindsay to sit down in the study.

The old botanist showed a slightly apologetic smile:

"My child, I'm sorry to keep you waiting."

Such scholars who are dedicated to cultivating plants, especially crops, are respectable figures in any world.

Lindsay shook her head quickly:

"Your job is much more important than mine."

"No matter how much time I have, I am still willing to wait!"

Lindsay's words came from the heart, and Finn could see it.

A smile formed from the corners of his wrinkled eyes, and he even joked with the young man in front of him:

"When I was loosening the soil just now, I was still thinking about it."

"You are a young man who has been learning from that guy An Rui for a day. If you come to my place today, I'm afraid you will complain that I can't teach you any powerful martial arts skills."

"Ah, by the way." Finn joked like this, and Lindsay also remembered her mission and hurriedly said, "I was at Uncle Anrui's house yesterday, and something happened. He wanted you to go over and deal with it today."

Finn frowned:

"An Rui, what does he want to see me for?"

After completing the cultivation of crops, there was basically no work for Finn to take care of in the Hidden Frontier. He usually just studied his own skills and improved the varieties of crops in the town.

The only thing he could think of that needed to be dealt with on his own.

Even those crops that have been carefully cultivated have problems due to mutations and other problems.

But if this is the case, Finn, who lives on the farmland, should definitely have discovered the problem before An Rui of the War School.

- This doesn't make sense.

I can't think of any problems with my job.

Finn had no choice but to think in another direction: "Is there something wrong with the forest here?"

"No, no, no! It's a zelkova tree."

Seeing that the old man in front of him had misunderstood the question, Lindsay quickly shook his head and rejected it, and gave a detailed explanation:

"In order to demonstrate to me the capabilities of the War School, Uncle Anrui accidentally cut down a zelkova tree. But that happened to be his daughter's favorite thing, so I hope you can provide some help."

The seriousness on Finn's face instantly froze.

After a few breaths, the ice melted. The old man's body twitched violently and he smiled uncontrollably:

"Hahaha!"

"That boy is obviously a man of his age, yet he is still as impulsive and careless as when he was young. Now he offends his beloved apple, and he deserves it."

The violent movements quickly overwhelmed Finn.

He suddenly coughed a few times, and the smile on his face turned into helplessly shaking his head. Aging was warning him that he shouldn't do this.

"Teacher Finn, you..."

Lindsay hurried up, but Finn just shook his head at him, saying not to worry:

"As people age, that's what happens. It's inevitable."

"Let's go to An Rui's place first and see what kind of trouble he has caused me."
