She Is Not a Witch

The canopy, the huge canopy, the canopy big enough to cover the sky.

After entering the Emerald Garden on the 'Flying Bird', the majestic and cloud-like branches and leaves in the sky made people amazed.

There are not only birds and monsters of various sizes on the canopy, but also cities placed in them. Some elves jump flexibly among the canopy without worrying about falling down, while the airships and glider that fly up and down from time to time are Fly through it like a bird.

The three holy trees form a stable triangle, separated on three huge hills, and the vast blue field and lake, an exquisite palace is located in the middle of this field, with azure sapphire-like domes, pavilions The pavilions are generally on the ground, half facing the lake, reflecting the brilliance in the sun.

There is the place where the Elf Queen lives. The palace occupies a very large area, and there is a forest behind it. The entire structure is connected by a circular road, and on this huge central ring, there are one after another circular roads of different sizes. Connect the gathering places of elves to form huge 'corollas' one by one.

This is the center of the Emerald Forest, the Emerald Garden, the capital and main gathering place of the forest elves, about one-third of the forest elves live here.

The 'flying bird' crossed the sky and slowly landed towards the ground. The mirror-like lake surface reflected the sky. As it approached, the clouds in it gradually became larger, as if entering another sky.

In the warm wind, the white wooden 'flying bird' slowly stopped on a neat lawn, and then two figures came down from it.

"Here we are, this is the periphery of the 'Golden Leaf Corolla', have you seen the morning golden oak tree on the road in the distance, because its leaves will turn bright yellow after summer, which is very beautiful, so this place is called the Golden Leaf Corolla. "

"Come with me, I remember that Teacher Westena lives on Xiangjin Street in the east of the city, not too far away." Xia Li and Lorraine Hill introduced, and then asked the elves in the tarmac to help take care of the place aircraft before striding forward.

The two first crossed the road outside the city, and then entered the increasingly prosperous interior.

Compared with the monotonous colors and buildings of most human cities, the gathering places of elves are undoubtedly much more diverse and refined. The houses here are almost impossible to find the same. They have different colors and styles. There are low walls made of simple white stones, walls painted with light green lime, windows decorated with emerald glass, and colorful broken stones. Roads, roofs of crimson tiles, even houses built in trees.

Although they look different in height and height, they are arranged according to the streets to form arcs, which has a sense of regular beauty in the colorful, which makes people's eyes shine.

Walking in such a street will always bring people a lot of surprises, because you will never know what kind of new buildings you will see after turning a street.

The elves have plenty of time and energy, and they tend to live here for generations, so they will spend more time and energy on arranging their houses so that they conform to what they want and the comfort of life.

Looking beyond the pale yellow fence, Lorraine Hill could see that many people's yards were planted with flowers, plants and trees, and some of the branches and leaves of the trees stretched into the balcony or even into the windows, bringing people a natural harmony and the beauty of life.

There are few people hawking in the street market here, and some shops are not open all day long. As the operator, the boss will only open the door to welcome customers at a specific time, and the local residents have long been used to it, and often only go to it during the opening time. Shop for things.

In addition to common clothing, daily necessities, restaurants and other shops, the girl can also see many shops of musical instruments, paintings, and even alchemy creations. Compared with ordinary shops, this place is not sparsely populated, and even some elves will be seen in The store is discussing some of the latest popular things, exchanging ideas and the like.

Elves do not reproduce quickly and have a long lifespan. This also leads to long-term relationships between friends who like to get together. This also makes their social circles very stable, and they rarely engage in short-sighted and fraudulent behaviors.

Here, the girl saw the kind of peace and leisure that is rarely seen in human society, just like the paradise in oriental legends.

After passing through large and small streets, Xia Li finally stopped in front of a courtyard with Lorraine Hill.

It is surrounded by low white walls, and inside the walls is a green lawn. There is a three-story house in the courtyard, and most of the house is under the shade of a big tree.

The wind blows across the street, bringing the sound of rustling leaves, and the mottled tree shadows on the wall shake together, making people feel that this is a good time for a nap.

There was no gate on the low fence built by Baishi. Charlie and Lorraine Hill walked directly into the courtyard, climbed the steps, came to the house, and rang the doorbell.

A crisp glass wind chime sounded under the eaves, and soon after, there was a response from inside the room.

"Wait a minute, I'll be right over."

With the sound of footsteps, the door opened, revealing the elven sage standing behind the door.

Vestana was wearing a loose dress at home, her blond hair was braided, wrapped around one shoulder, and hung on her chest.

"Charlie, and...you are really fast." She seemed to want to call Lorraine Hill's name, but stopped talking at this moment.

"Teacher Vestena~" Xia Li stepped forward and gave the elf sage a big hug, and it took her a long time to get off Vestena's body.

"I made you laugh, come in and sit first." Westena showed a helpless smile to Lorraine Hill, and then called the two to come in.

The two entered the hall, which was slightly shady. On the wooden sofa were a few books placed casually, and on the table was a vase with blue-leaved chrysanthemums in full bloom.

After the two sat down, Vestana brought two glasses of cool and thirst-quenching fruit juice, and then sat down together and asked about the situation along the way.

"No problem, I'm your excellent student." Xia Li introduced, patting her chest. It seems that in her heart, this is what a qualified senior sister should do.

Lorraine Hill looks so young, and her strength is not weak. She should be a student accepted by Teacher Vestena in Emenas. It is natural and appropriate to take care of her junior sister.

Knowing that things were misunderstood by Xia Li, Vestana nodded and shook her head, and it was not easy to explain the relationship at this time.

"It's really troublesome Xia Li. Recently, you are the only one who has been active in the outskirts of the forest. For a while, I really couldn't find any suitable candidates."

Then Westena asked about Xia Li's current situation, and then turned her gaze to Lorraine Hill. She blinked, and then spoke.

"You guys just arrived today, so let's take a break first, and I'll talk about the business later." After speaking, he let the two of them temporarily stay in their own home and arranged a room for them.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Westena talked to Lorraine Hill alone while Charlie was looking at the room.

"What should I call you now? I think it's better not to tell Xia Li your real identity."

"Just call me Jialan. The elves probably don't know much about this name." Lorraine Hill also nodded in understanding.

"Okay then, I'll call you Jialan. After dinner tonight, I'll take you for a walk in the corolla. There will be many opportunities to talk then."

Afterwards, the two settled down in Vestana's home. The elf sage prepared comfortable quilts and pillows for them, and arranged a room with a balcony.

At night, after the three of them had dinner together, they went out for a walk at Vestana's suggestion.

The streets at night are not deserted, and some shops will also open during this time, especially the opera house and concert hall, where the elves gather.

Walking on the street, Xia Li was immediately attracted by those good-looking and favorite things. During the period, she greeted a few friends whom she hadn't seen for a long time. When seeing her enthusiastically communicating with her familiar partners, Vestana finally met with Luo Lanxi at this time. I talked about the reason for this invitation.

"It's been five years since we last met in Emenas."

"Yes, time is really fast." Lorraine Hill nodded.

The two talked about the changes in these years, and the content of the chat ranged from Emenas to the situation of the empire, from the changes of human society to the preference of the elves today.

"Nearly five years have passed. How does Lorraine look at the current situation of the empire? Will there be a feeling of disappointment and resentment?" Vestana turned around, her face hazy under the light of the street lamp.

"Whether nobles or civilians are immersed in their own calculations and interests, complicated thoughts, chaotic slogans and pursuits, past beliefs and oaths are no longer, everything is broken, like stirring glass residue."

"Human beings, or life, are not noble or rational. They are not as beautiful as you describe."

"Yes." At this point, Lorraine Hill could only nod and admit.

Compared with Clancia, her experience in the empire will be more depressing, and many things may only be experienced by herself before she can understand the difficulties and cumbersomeness.

Just like the simplest little thing, the organization will subsidize those residents who are physically disabled and unable to take care of themselves, so that they can obtain the ability to maintain their lives, but such laws and regulations are quickly exploited by interested people. In some impoverished villages, some people even Voluntarily self-mutilate or injure family members in order to seek welfare.

So this regulation was later repealed, and other methods were tried to improve it.

Is human nature good? This may be a saying in fairy tales, but it is undeniable that there is indeed evil in human nature.

Human beings are animals before they are human beings. When you want to do something beneficial, some people will not understand and will destroy it to satisfy their own selfishness. When you exclude them, they will jump out and say, I am also one of them, why can't I enjoy these things, now you divide your identities, how is that different from the nobles in the past.

All kinds of sophistry and rhetoric are always used by them at will and without remorse.

The same is true in other regions of the empire. With several coups, abnormal alternations, and rebellions of the royal family, the tacit agreement in the empire in the past has also been completely broken. Loyalty and oath, from the existence that was sung in the past, has become something that is ridiculed and spurned today.

What is everything for, and why everything exists, are questioned, repeatedly asked, and then discarded, leaving only the most short-sighted and beneficial parts.

Seeing Lorraine Hill's lost look, Vestana had no choice but to approach the girl, patted her on the shoulder, and comforted her softly.

"The status quo is very disappointing, but it's not your fault, it's just the way the world is."

"So, at the beginning, several sages told me that he didn't have much hope for the idea you proposed at the meeting that day."

"Fortunately, not everyone is like this, and there are still a few people who agree with it."

"It's not that they don't realize the difficulties and complications they face, but they just think that this is right."

"It's also very interesting to say. It is precisely because we sages come from various ethnic groups and places, we have a lot of experience, and we know the complexity of the country and society, so we dare not open our mouths to raise too shocking ideas. It was you who broke in ignorantly at that time. , Surprise everyone, giggling."

"Because you are the great sage of Crancia, when you say that, many people worry that this will directly affect Clancia, and cause the only two remaining countries on the mainland to enter an all-out war again."

"However, fortunately, such a follow-up did not happen."

"There are many differences between Clancia and the Empire. After independence from West Wind, the overall liquidation was completed. Everything was overthrown and restarted, which was extremely refreshing."

"The empire is different. It has a broad territory and complex residents with different traditions, beliefs, pursuits, and even bloodlines. If you want to liquidate it, it means that the entire empire opposes it from top to bottom. Yes, even those civilians will Against you, because you are an existence that destroys their beliefs and customs."

"They recognized those things from the bottom of their hearts, the glory of the family, the vows they kept, the local traditions, etc., and before you came, the empire had not completely fallen to the point where it could not survive, nor had it changed everything thoughts and impulses."

"At this time, if you do it forcefully, then you will be no different from those villains who invaded."

"So, this time it's hell-like difficulty, Lorraine Hill." The sage plucked the hair on the side of his ear, stood by the square, and whispered to the girl.

Time passed slowly, and the two sat on the bench by the side of the square, watching the elves walking by, puppeteers performing puppet plays, and mutual lovers discussing each other, until the sound of Xia Li's excited footsteps broke the silence.

"Jialan, do you want some jelly candy?" Said the elf girl trotted over, and handed over something that looked like candied haws, it seemed that she just went to buy something to eat.

But it’s not candied haws. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com’s outer shell is a layer of solidified and hardened sugar shell, about the size of an apple, with a light blue color and a slight blueberry scent. The inside is filled with ice cream , can be eaten with a small wooden spoon.

The ice cream is made of cream and fruit juice. It is slightly sour and sweet, and it will have a cold and melting taste in the mouth. After eating the ice cream inside, it will have a different taste with the crunched hard candy shell.

"Do you want the teacher too? I have another one here."

Seeing Lorraine Hill take the frozen heart candy, Xia Li smiled sweetly, and then continued to ask Vestena on the side.

"This... I don't need it." After thinking about it several times in her mind, Westena finally rejected Xia Li's proposal in order to preserve her image.

"Oh, really don't need it. I heard from Teacher Ivana that you liked this the most when you were students."

Well, it seems that the image has long since ceased to exist, Vestana couldn't help but sighed.
