6: The old man was shocked

At the same time.

Just as Su Can placed his phone on the ground, his attention completely focused on the walnut tree.

Liu Tianji had just finished his tai chi in the courtyard, taken a towel from the servant to wipe his sweat, and finally had time to pick up his phone.

"Huh?"

Only then, looking at his phone, did he realize that Su Can had actually sent him a message.

"This kid actually sent me a message so quickly?" Liu Tianji was a little surprised.

Honestly, although Su Can had broken his beloved pair of dragon head, the impression he left on him was still good.

He was also quite curious what the other party had said, sending him a message so quickly.

However, his many years of doing things calmly kept him serene, and he still followed his own rhythm.

He sat down on the recliner, took a hand-held pot from the servant, took a sip of tea, savored it slightly, and then unhurriedly opened his phone.

However, when he opened his phone and went to the chat page.

His previously relaxed and leisurely state instantly changed.

He shot upright, forgetting that the hand-held pot was still in his mouth, and immediately choked.

"Cough, cough, cough..."

Liu Tianji couldn't help but cough violently, his face turning red from the coughing.

But his eyes never left the phone screen; instead, he stared intently, almost incredulously, at the photos Su Can had sent.

"This is a Kylin-patterned official's hat! A five-lobed dragon head?!"

Liu Tianji's face was flushed with excitement. With a 'pah' sound, he placed the hand-held pot on the side table, ignoring the tea he had coughed out, and hugged his phone to look.

Then he scrolled his finger, and the more he looked, the more excited he became.

"It's a dragon head, no doubt! Whether it's the color, fullness, size, shape, or Texture, it's a top-tier masterpiece! Far superior to my previous base!"

Liu Tianji flipped through the photos several times.

With his discerning eye, he could naturally tell that these walnuts had obviously just been opened.

And the person who opened the walnuts was Su Can himself, as there was still residual staining on his hands.

"This kid, being able to casually crush the walnuts I've been playing with for over ten years, I knew he was extraordinary! I didn't expect him to bring me such a surprise so quickly."

"Looking at the blank space in the photos, it seems like he's in the mountains or the wild! No, I need to quickly ask him how he got this dragon head; I must get my hands on it!"

Liu Tianji's hunting instinct was aroused, and he couldn't wait a moment longer. He didn't even listen to Su Can's voice message and directly initiated a voice call.

However, after the call connected, no one answered.

"What's going on? What's this kid doing? Why isn't he answering the phone!"

After several unanswered voice calls, Liu Tianji grew anxious, pacing back and forth in the courtyard.

As he walked, he composed a text message to Su Can: "You kid, contact me the first moment you see this message, and be sure to keep those walnuts safe!"

Little did he know!

At this moment, Su Can had already climbed the walnut tree and begun to harvest the walnuts on it.

In Su Can's eyes, these walnuts were no longer just edible walnuts, but scratch-offs that could explode with gold coins.

"Wow, as expected of a hundred-year-old tree, every walnut is quite large! If the quality rate is high, just this one tree's walnuts would be enough to pay off the 220,000 compensation, with plenty left over!"

Standing on a branch, Su Can looked at the walnuts within reach, his face unable to hide his excitement.

He reached out and pulled down a walnut, wanting to randomly check its quality. As soon as he picked off the outer shell, three thick veins immediately appeared.

Another multi-lobed one!

Su Can's face clearly lit up. He quickly peeled off the remaining shell, and a perfectly shaped three-lobed walnut appeared before him.

It had a deep red color, thick veins, a well-formed waist and shoulders, and very elegant Texture.

Once well-matched, it could become a fine piece and definitely fetch a good price.

"To casually pull one and get a high-quality three-lobed one, it seems this walnut tree has a very high yield rate. I'm going to get rich, hahaha!"

Su Can's eyes glowed green with excitement, fully demonstrating the physical prowess of his body after the marrow cleansing. He moved through the tree as agile as a monkey.

Puff, puff, puff...

One by one, walnuts were pulled from the tree and accurately tossed into a pile.

Fortunately, it was already well past noon, and no one was up the mountain. Otherwise, if someone saw him, their jaws would surely drop.

What decent person could leap and jump through trees, more agile than a monkey?

Even Big Yellow's gaze at him was a bit 'not human'.

Su Can, however, had no such awareness and became increasingly excited.

As his body became more accustomed and familiar, his control grew stronger and stronger. He was like a martial arts master, moving freely and effortlessly through the tree, thoroughly enjoying himself.

He even became a bit lost in the moment, moving back and forth in the tree, pulling down walnuts one by one.

In just a few minutes, he had thrown a large pile of walnuts onto the ground. A quick glance estimated at least three hundred.

Another two minutes passed, and on the huge tree, only a dozen or so walnuts remained at the very top.

Looking at these dozen clearly larger walnuts at the treetop, Su Can's eyes flashed with brilliance, full of anticipation for them.

However, the treetop was too high and too thin, with no support point, making it difficult for him to jump up.

After thinking for a moment, Su Can looked down at Big Yellow and said, "Big Yellow, I'm going to shake all these walnuts down. It's up to you now; not a single one of these walnuts can be lost!"

"Woof!" Big Yellow barked, sat on the ground, wagged his tail, but kept his eyes fixed on the treetop.

Evidently, he understood!

Su Can felt relieved. Looking at the treetop, which was only as thick as his arm, he pondered how much force would be appropriate.

After all, his current strength was astonishingly great.

If he used too much force and the walnuts were all shaken too far away, it would be too troublesome to find them in this vast mountain.

He first shook the treetop with his hand, testing its toughness and density.

Feeling it was about right, he suddenly clapped the base of the treetop with force!

He felt the force of this clap was just right.

Big Yellow also stood up straight, staring at the walnuts about to fall.

The next second, with a 'crack'!

The treetop cleanly snapped off at its base, falling to the ground with a 'whoosh'.

Big Yellow, who had been about to rush out, froze in place, looking at Su Can with a somewhat bewildered expression.

Su Can was even more stunned.

"I didn't even use much force!"

He wanted to cry but had no tears!

Su Can truly wanted to cry but had no tears.

Not a single walnut was shaken off the entire treetop, yet the treetop itself broke off.

It was as if all the power of his clap had condensed into a single point, directly snapping the treetop.

"I was still hoping for next year; what am I going to do now?"

Su Can didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but since it was done, he could only shake his head helplessly.

Although the treetop was gone, the entire tree remained.

Besides, with his current abilities, he should be looking at the entire mountain, not just getting stuck on one tree.

Thinking of this, Su Can looked up at the sun; it was already nearing noon.

His main purpose in returning to his hometown this time was to verify his ability to enlighten and its effects, a mere trial run.

And today, just his first shallow venture into the mountain, had yielded such a great harvest.

Su Can indeed needed to go back and tidy up, then make a long-term plan.

So he quickly climbed down the tree, not even bothering to get his phone, and began to put all the piled-up walnuts into bags.
