She Is Not a Witch

It was already late after returning from the market in the small town, and there were fewer pedestrians on the street. The wooden houses in the small town were lit with orange lights, dotted in this peaceful forest.

Arriving at the Ring Tree Hotel where they stayed, Lorraine Hill and Charlie ate a dinner of oranges and smoked fish, and then returned to their room to rest.

This is the third floor of the hotel. The entire hotel is built around a big tree. There are more than 20 scattered rooms on each floor, which shows the thickness of the big tree.

The furnishings in the room are simple and warm, basically made of local wooden furniture, and a glowing potted plant is placed on the table as a light source. If you want to sleep at night, you can cover the cover, which is equivalent to turning off the lights.

Sitting at the small table, Lorraine Hill took a closer look at the glowing little tree, and satisfied his curiosity after a long while.

[Fluorescent Line Show Chrysanthemum] (black iron level): It can transform the absorbed mana into a bright small shrub. It has been improved, and it also has the effect of partially repelling insects.

In the past, some plants would emit weak lights at night to attract insects to pollinate them. Later, the elves improved these plants for several generations, and now there are bright potted plants that not only no longer attract insects, but emit mosquito repellent. The faint fragrance is deeply loved by elves.

The rise of human beings is not as long as the elves ruled the mainland. During this long time, the elves have also accumulated many technologies and abilities that are difficult for humans to master.

After observing the potted plants on the table, Lorraine Hill pushed open the small door of the balcony and stood by the wooden railing to look at the town at night.

The small river meanders and flows in the small town like a stream, reflecting the lights in the houses of the houses. There are clear and various insects in the corners of the grass in the forest, which makes the night no longer lonely, but has another meaning. lively and quiet.

Looking into the distance, behind the night covered by big trees, a large dome building is vaguely outlined, revealing its shape among the thick trees.

That's probably the school that Charlie was talking about during the day.

'A paradise in a cage entwined with vines', this is the school that Xia Li graduated from. The most famous thing in the whole school is the hollow building like a birdcage.

The ancient stone birdcage, which is entwined with green vines, leans slightly against the mountain wall, in the shade of the trees.

Whenever teaching, those knowledgeable elder elves would stand on the circular square in the middle of the birdcage, while the young elves as students would land on the vines winding around the birdcage like butterflies.

These vines are not as thin as they look from a distance. Their thick structures are wrapped around the stone birdcages. After generations of students and teachers have taken care of them, they have formed small platforms on which students can stand. Or sit and listen to lectures.

Xia Li and the school scene she described turned in her mind, and Lorraine Hill thought that before leaving tomorrow, she must go to that 'birdcage' to satisfy her curiosity.

At night, covered with a comfortable white quilt, Lorraine Hill fell into a peaceful sleep.

the next day.

"Good morning~"

Early in the morning, Lorraine Hill was awakened by Xia Li's crisp knock on the door. While rubbing her eyes, the girl crawled out of bed reluctantly, and opened the door for Xia Li wearing slippers.

Recently, Lorraine Hill has developed the habit of sleeping in late in the morning, and it is a bit uncomfortable to change suddenly.

"Go and have some breakfast, Jialan." Urging Lorraine Hill to comb her hair and change clothes quickly, Xia Li couldn't wait to take this new friend out to eat.

"OK, wait."

Lorraine Hill responded helplessly, then reached into the cool water basin, sprinkled water droplets on his face to wash his face, and woke himself up a little before going downstairs with Charlie.

The hair on his forehead and sides was still a little wet, and walking in the morning breeze brought some coolness. Lorraine Hill stood on the cobbled street of the town, looking at the place where the sun was rising in the distance.

The orange-red golden sun rises in the east, and its appearance is cut by the tall trees. The sunlight shines on the forest, forming bright and dark trails. The tiny water mist floats and dissociates in the morning light, and slowly evaporates.

"It's beautiful, the beauty in the morning can only be seen by hard-working people." After paying the bill at the hotel, Xia Li came to Lorraine Hill.

"The former teacher told us that the sun in the morning light is a more beautiful scenery than the sunset at dusk. It also has a kind of vigor and hope that the sunset does not have. You can see the snow-white clouds in the sky, surrounded by the clouds below. The sun shines a rare golden color and flows under the blue and clear sky."

"Indeed."

Lorraine Hill nodded with deep empathy. She still saw the golden clouds in the morning when she was in elementary school. In middle and high school, she either got up too late or got up too early, and went to school before dawn. As for such scenery, it can only remain in childhood memory.

"Go, I'll take you to eat something good."

Then, Charlie pulled Lorraine Hill towards the other side of the river. They crossed small bridges and streets, turned around big trees, and then stopped in front of a stone hut under a big tree.

This seems to be a place for making pastries and bread. It looks like a thick and short mushroom, and there is a burst of sweet smell from the stone chimney behind.

When I came here, there were already many elf students queuing up here. Fortunately, the line was not too long, as long as I waited for a while, I could wait.

Lorraine Hill watched the elf students walk towards the academy while eating a book bag in one hand and a lotus leaf-wrapped pastry in the other.

When Lorraine Hill came to the store, she took a look at the warm and colorful decorations in the store.

The owner of the store is a couple of elves. They have silver hair and wear aprons, and they are busy for the students who come to buy breakfast.

"I want two cherry parfaits, Sister Tiss~" Xia Li spoke first, she seemed to be very familiar with the shop owner.

"Okay. So it's Xia Li, are you back now?" The mature elf elder sister took out a lotus leaf soaked in clear water, put the cut triangle pastry into it, and then put a few big cherries Click on it and pass it to Charlie.

"Yeah, but this time I'm taking friends passing by, so I'll come back and stay longer next time."

"Hehe, I can't say for sure about this. You young guys have one idea every day, and you may not know where you will go when the time comes."

"Okay, here, is this your friend?" She looked at Lorraine Hill, who had not pointed ears, a little surprised and curious.

"Yes, this is Jialan, from Emenas, I will take her to the Emerald Court."

"What a good name, it sounds like an oriental person. I haven't been to the east for a long time, and I miss it a little now." Speaking of this, the mature elf woman handed two pastries to Xia Li and Lorraine.

"Then let's go, come again next time~"

Valley

After that, Xia Li and Lorraine Hill walked out together, and then slowly explained.

"I used to come to this store often when I was in school, so I am very familiar with it. I have always liked their pastries. They are not too hot, and they are also paired with iced fresh fruits. They taste very good~" Xia Li vigorously said recommended.

Lorraine Hill nodded with a smile, and then took a small sip to taste it.

The pastry seems to be steamed with rice flour mixed with other ingredients. It is soft and glutinous and not too sticky. The cherry on top tastes cold and sweet, which well dilutes the monotony of the pastry itself and brings a different kind of stimulation. , There is a kind of slippery comfort.

"It's delicious."

"I'm right, hehe."

After eating the cakes, the two walked on the gravel road under the tall trees, turned around for a while, and finally came to the school.

The lawn in front of the academy is covered with white stone slabs, gradually connecting the forest with the academy. There are no walls here. Standing under the tall tree canopy in front of the academy, you can see most of the buildings in the academy.

The largest and most famous building among them is naturally the huge auditorium classroom like a birdcage, and now a class is being taught in it. A forest elf teacher demonstrates spells, and emerald birds form one after another in front of him, and then in the tall flying around the auditorium in a birdcage.

Soon, a burst of admiring applause came from the Birdcage Auditorium.

Except for the largest auditorium classroom, some other teachers and students are on the lawn under the tree, and some are in the tall tree-lined classroom, respectively talking about their courses.

The students and teachers here either sit or lie down, and don’t deliberately prescribe which posture. Some of them lean on the soft white tiger, watching the teacher lecture, and only occasionally take out the book to write down some information when they feel the need. thing.

From the various subtle voices in the wind, Lorraine Hill gradually perceived and understood the content of these lectures, which roughly included mathematics, history, culture, extraordinary practice, combat, herbal medicine, and even some niche ones. aesthetics.

If you compare it with Emenas, it's like the central school building where the first graders live and part of the Walled City Academy, and the courses taught are very similar.

However, it did not involve the religion, death, priesthood, chaos, and purification of Temple College, nor did it have the famous courses of Tower College and Bridge Pier College, such as Science, Alchemy, Military, Law Code, Dragon Changes and the like.

Although there are fewer subjects, considering that this is not the largest academy in the forest, it is good enough to adapt to local conditions and the conditions for running the school.

"How about it, isn't it familiar and kind?" Xia Li turned her head and said with a smile.

"Actually, I have been to Emenas once, and that time I followed the mentor to communicate and learn."

"Emenas is indeed very big, and the sages are also very powerful, but I still prefer this place, because it is more comfortable to stay here, without too many scruples, and there is not such fierce competition."

…

"Ahaha, don't you feel like you're talking big? In fact, sometimes we also envy those students who can be admitted to Emenas. However, if you don't make it, you won't be too regretful."

"I'll take you around the academy, it's not a waste of time."

Afterwards, Charlie took Lorraine Hill to wander around this shady academy, and introduced to her what kind of courses are usually taught here, where there is a dining room, and behind the mountain wall there is a group of mushroom-like small The house, there is the student dormitory, as well as caves and lakes where students usually play and party.

It was already noon when the two of them roughly finished walking through the academy.

"Then, it's time to go, Jialan."

After returning to the small town, Xia Li and Lorraine Hill took the white 'bird' again, and then gradually escaped from it with the flapping of its wings, and jumped into the vast forest again.

This time, as they gradually entered the depths of the forest, the surrounding environment changed a lot.

What I saw was no longer the villages and small towns where dozens or hundreds of people gathered in the past, but cities with a large population.

Most of these cities have wooden or white rock structures, built under rivers and under the shade of trees, where there are airships, monsters landing from time to time, and a bit of a forest elf.

The city is not a single plane, but a complex three-dimensional structure, which is built on the hillside and among the giant trees.

And after passing through the thick forest, the scenery in front of them became brighter, and a vast field appeared in the eyes of the two of them.

Because these fields are planted with different crops, they present huge squares of different colors on the ground, some are light yellow, some are green, some are light red with green, some are in full bloom with purple flowers, and so on. Some forest elves were wearing thick white wide-sleeved clothes, carrying baskets and tools, walking on the path in the field, and there were big boars dragging iron plows in the field, making snoring sounds from time to time, being guided by the elves in front of them. forward.

After leaving the forest, the field of vision suddenly widened. Apart from the fields in the huge valley below, Lorraine Hill could also see the big trees in the hazy clouds in the distance.

"That is the 'Three Sacred Trees' in the Emerald Garden today. They were re-cultivated by the ancestors after the collapse of the World Tree." Xia Li briefly explained, pointing at the outline of the big tree.

"In the past, there were three elves living under the world tree. The silver elves were good at forging and were famous for their martial arts and dancing. The forest elves were keen on planting and would use bows and arrows as their main weapons. The ice elves were mostly calm. Among them, scholars and spellcasters were more many."

"This is the traditional way of distinguishing in the past. Although it is not suitable now, it can still roughly see the different styles of each elf."

"We're going to the Emerald Court soon, Jialan has to follow me closely, otherwise I'll get lost, heck."

Then, flying in the soothing wind, Charlie started talking about the situation in the Emerald Court.

"There are a lot of forest elves there. There are probably millions of elves living under the 'Three Sacred Trees', and the buildings and streets inside are very complicated. They are not as uniform as humans, but mostly use rings or semicircles. Structures, like a large ring within a small ring, are distributed under the sacred tree."

"Each big ring is a relatively complete living environment, which contains shops, houses, places for daily needs, and some even have small schools and libraries."

"The 26 largest rings are the most densely populated places in the Emerald Court~www.readwn.com~ It is very prosperous inside, with opera houses, art galleries, large fountain squares, comfortable hot spring baths and so on Yes, you can also take a long-distance airship, but that is slower, not as fast as our 'flying bird'."

"Master Vestana lives in the 'Golden Leaf Corolla' ring, oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you, the 26 largest rings are all named after the corolla, such as 'Blue Calyx Corolla', 'Thorn Leaf Corolla', 'Red Dye the wreath' and so on."

"The Emerald Court is very large, and even I didn't take all of the corollas. I'm just familiar with the 'Golden Leaf Corolla' and the 'Blue Calyx Corolla'. If you stay in the Emerald Court for a long time, you can see more Look, each corolla has its own characteristics, and there is a slight competition between them."

"Then, the introduction ends here first, we need to speed up, Jialan. Hold on to me, hahaha~"

As he spoke, a burst of refreshing laughter slid across the blue sky, running towards the distant silhouette of the giant tree, and the bustling scene in the Emerald Garden was slowly reflected in Lorraine Hill's eyes.
