She Is Not a Witch

Vol 4 Chapter 26: Back to Minze

The mist in the morning shrouded the lush mountains and forests, bringing a little coolness to the skin.

Lorraine Hill stepped lightly on the fallen leaves and tree roots in the forest, walking through this remote and silent rolling mountain.

This is in the depths of Minzezhou, where there are few people. It takes several months for a caravan to ride tall prison oxen and drag boxes of heavy goods to and from the depths of the lake and mountains.

There are many moss and silt in the water lake and mountain forest. Fortunately, the weather is getting colder now, and while the air is cool, there are no many annoying insects and ants, making it more comfortable.

The toes lightly stepped on the tree branch, bending it slightly, and then the girl in the white dress leaped up again, sliding a long distance in the wind, with such a light posture like catkins or feathers in the wind.

Occasionally, some gray-brown squirrels and black-billed pheasants were seen in the forest. When the girl passed over her head, they were unaware, and they were still walking casually, looking for food in dead branches and grass.

In this way, following the memories in her mind, after turning over a high hill, her eyes suddenly opened up, and a Mizusawa plain hidden among the tall mountains came into the girl's eyes.

The high mountains of Qingdai are layered on top of each other, looming in the distance of clouds and mist. There are a few families at the foot of the mountain, and a few wisps of light cooking smoke are floating slightly. The sound of cows, this small village in memory is still so quiet.

This is a small village of the Yeyu clan. In Qiilei Qizhou, there are actually many small clans like the Yeyu clan. Most of them have a small population. In a mountain village, there are often only a few surnames, and they are basically relatives of the same clan. .

Qiilei Qizhou, where poisonous insects, snakes and ants are everywhere, the dangerous environment separates each gathering place, forming such a small clan with different accents, customs, and differences. In ancient times, this place was called the land of Baiyue. Or the land of poisonous swamp, until the phoenix came to the world, people gradually gathered in this land, and slowly became alive.

Walking through the narrow ridge in the paddy field, the dew on the green grass stained the hem of the clothes, and the small village surrounded by stones in the distance became more and more clear. As the village got closer and closer, Lorraine Hill still missed At the same time, I felt slightly nervous, not knowing how Bai Zao was doing now.

Back then, when she woke up, she forgot a lot of things and became very weak. She could only rely on the help of Bai Qiu to walk out of this deep mountain. Looking back now, if she met bad people at that time, it would have been an unimaginable consequence. .

In this mountain village, she just happened to meet a couple of local couples getting married, and then lived here for a period of time before waiting for the caravan to and from the deep mountains.

During this time, Baizao basically took care of her and taught her a lot about the outside world.

Before leaving, Bai Zao asked Lorraine Hill to come back and take a look, but it had been more than ten years since he didn't want to leave.

Walking along the spacious mountain road in front of the village, the road under your feet is paved with fine stones, and people on both sides of the road also appear in the field of vision, and you can see one or two local villagers walking by, some of them are carrying hoes Or poles, some walking barefoot on the drying yard in front of their homes, turning the corn grains, and occasionally hearing the sound of firewood crackling and rooster crowing.

When passing by a house, a villager wearing a blue turban came over. His clothes were half-undressed, and there were a lot of grass clippings and dry mud on them. There was a towel for wiping sweat on his shoulders. Some dark.

"Where did you come from, little girl? Did you get lost with the adults?" As soon as he opened his mouth, his thick voice almost spread throughout the small village, and many villagers also came out curiously.

In this deep mountain, there are only a few dozen families, and it can be said that they are very familiar with each other. It is indeed a new thing that a neatly dressed and good-looking girl suddenly comes here.

Although Lorraine Hill felt that she was more mature, her sixteen or seventeen-year-old appearance was nothing more than a slightly older child in the eyes of the locals.

"I..." Some thoughts just turned in his mind, and Lorraine Hill was a little distressed about how to explain it.

"I'm here to find Sister Baizao. Well, I came here a long time ago, and I received a lot of help from Sister Baizao."

"Oh, Sister Bai, you said this, I know, it should be someone that Sister Bai met outside, hahaha." As he said this, the uncle rubbed his head and laughed, as if he had asked him suddenly I'm a little embarrassed.

Then he turned his head and shouted to the boys who were watching the fun on the hillside: "Hey, little Qingtou, go and call Big Sister Bai, this meeting should be at the back mountain spring."

"Hmph, call me again." Up there, the ten-year-old child was full of displeasure, but he still trotted up the narrow mountain path built along the stone ladder.

"You can wait for this girl. Xiaoqingtou is the child of sister Baida, and he can call someone here in a while."

"Thank you, big brother." Lorraine Hill nodded his thanks as he did in the countryside, and then looked at the child on the mountain road who gradually disappeared into the shade of the trees.

Is it the child of Baizao's big sister? I remember that Baizao was married here at the time, so she shouldn't be her own sister, so she is her husband's sister.

Thinking about it, a clear-eyed and familiar girl appeared in Lorraine Hill's mind, probably called 'Xiangzi'.

Because there are few outsiders in the village, when Lorraine Hill was standing in the open space of the village and waiting, many villagers came to have a look curiously. Almost in the ear, clearly.

Thinkers

"A girl who looks good, she looks like a child of a wealthy family."

"Did she come here alone, did she run away from home?"

"The color of the dress is really white, and there is no mud at all. How did you do it?"

"It should not be ordinary clothes. I heard that some powerful people in Minze can spin yarn with polyester snow silk. Such fabrics are not stained with mud, and the dirt can be easily removed by washing with water."

"That's quite expensive. My seventh uncle's family has been saving for many years before I can get a skirt for my granddaughter. You must know that my seventh uncle is a powerful snake catcher in seven miles and eight villages, and his strength is also at the fourth level. It takes a lot of money like this It’s great, and judging by the color, it’s not so white.”

"It looks so small, this child is so beautiful, people can't take their eyes off."

Many people boasted and envied this young girl who had just arrived in the village. After hearing some of the words too much, Lorraine Hill was also a little embarrassed and lowered her head slightly, but this cute appearance attracted many people. His words seemed to have had the opposite effect.

Just when Lorraine Hill felt that the time had passed, he finally heard other voices approaching.

A slightly plump woman walked down the mountain path holding a large bamboo basket. The bamboo basket contained freshly washed fruits. hard.

"Did you ask me to come?" She walked down the mountain path of the stone steps, put down the bamboo basket, and only then had time to look at the girl standing at the bottom of the hill.

"This is... Jialan?"

Lorraine Hill's appearance basically remained the same, and this rare appearance was always impressive, so Bai Zao recognized it immediately.

Looking at the girl whom he had not seen for many years, Bai Zao showed a smile on his face, then walked down quickly, and came to Lorraine Hill.

"Is it Jialan?"

"Yes, Sister Baizao, I'm back to see you." Lorraine Hill also responded happily.

"It's really a rare visitor. I thought you wouldn't come back. After all, Xiao Jialan is so beautiful, she may have married into a rich family." Bai Zao circled around Lorraine Hill, as if she wanted to get to know her again, with a teasing smile on her lips As he said, although his figure is a little more mature than before, his personality is still the same.

"Come with me, did you come here alone?" Bai Zao took Lorraine Hill's hand and walked up the hillside. Along the way, many villagers waved their hands kindly, asking where did this come from? The guests who came, the little girl is so beautiful and so on.

When I returned to the wooden building on the mountainside, someone at home had already prepared tea, and the clear amber liquid was poured from the old teapot with a missing corner, with some tea leaves and flower petals floating in it, and a faint fragrance came over me, which made people feel uncomfortable. Feel comfortable.

"You sit down first, I'll change my clothes, I sweated a bit just now." Bai Zao asked Lorraine Hill to sit in the lobby, put down the bamboo basket, and then walked into the room beside her.

When Lorraine Hill was sitting in the lobby, a few small heads appeared outside the door, and the children looked curiously at the guest who had just arrived in the village.

For these children who looked at her with wide-eyed eyes, Lorraine Hill waved lightly, said "Hello~" and then she didn't know how to coax them. She has never been very good at dealing with children.

These children looked at Lorraine Hill waving, but did not respond. Perhaps they did not understand the words of greeting. The accent spoken by the locals was quite different from that of the outside world.

After a while, Bai Zao came out of the house, now wearing a light blue and white embroidered dress, looking a little cool and comfortable.

"You guys don't stay here now, come back later in the evening, there will be delicious food."

"Okay~Aunt Bai is so nice~" After saying that, the children scattered and went to play elsewhere.

At this time, the room became a little quieter before Bai Zao spoke to Lorraine Hill.

"Jialan doesn't seem to have changed at all, so she must have practiced a very powerful method."

Although for some villagers, Lorraine Hill's unchanging face is very novel, but for Baizao, such a thing is not difficult to understand. She had practiced in the Red Immortal Sect in her early years, and she had seen those powerful priestesses offering sacrifices, as well as some high-level envoys in the sect, many of whom maintained a youthful appearance.

"I have practiced some methods." Lorraine Hill nodded, and then talked about her experience after leaving Min Ze.

"I didn't expect to go to the door-to-door sect. It's really powerful." Bai Zao is a rare person in the village who has more experience. He knows how difficult it is to enter the door-to-door sect, and how terrifying its strength is.

"No wonder I haven't seen you back these years. At first I thought you had some accident, and I was a little sad. Now it seems that the assessment in the school should be strict, and there is not much time to go out." Bai Zao took the initiative for Lorraine Hill Think about the experience of these years.

"Well, I have gone through a lot of things, so I just came back to see Sister Bai now." Lorraine Hill said embarrassedly.

In other words, it has been nearly 20 years since she left this mountain village, went to Xiangyu School to study, and then came back from the Western Continent. Sister Baizao, who is newly married, is now in her thirties, nearly forty years old.

Time flies, the girl sighed slightly.

"How is Sister Baizao's life now?"

"I'm fine. This mountain village is not as rich and exciting as Jialan's experience. It's relatively peaceful in daily life, and there have been some turmoil in recent years."

Bai Zao also talked about the changes in these years. After a few years of marriage, she had two children one after another. Sisters, I brought them to the Red Immortal Sect to practice.

"They are not like me, they are very ambitious." Bai Zao said with a smile that he has two children.

Is the child so old? Hearing this, Lorraine blinked, feeling a little surprised, but it seemed reasonable. The life of ordinary people is only a few decades, and time flies by, and everything has changed.

"Okay, let's not talk about this for now. Since Jialan is here, let me arrange the place to live for you. I will spend the night here today. I will take you around tomorrow. When you came back then, I I just got married at that time, so I didn’t know her well, and I didn’t know how to introduce you.”

After finishing speaking, Bai Zao took Lorraine Hill away from the three-story wooden building and went to Shiqiong Building on the other side of the yard.

"I remember that night, you also lived in Qionglou. At that time, I asked Xiangyu to take care of you, because I was afraid that you would be afraid and didn't know the way by yourself." Bai Zao walked in Shiqionglou, talking about interesting things from that year.

"Where is the sweet potato now?" The girl remembered the words of the villager in front of the village.

"Xiangzhi also got married, probably more than ten years ago. Her husband is a good swordsman in the village. Now his home is on another mountainside not far from here. He often comes to talk to me and bring something."

"The family she married is very powerful. In this mountain, there are not many people who can beat her husband. He has the strength of the fourth level."

"I see." Lorraine Hill nodded.

"By the way, I haven't asked Jialan yet. How many ranks are you now, at least the fifth rank? I feel that the sixth rank is also very possible. After all, it's a big school."

Bai Zao recalled the sporadic memories. In the Red Immortal Sect, the sixth rank is already a very powerful master. They are probably the true disciples of the sect, who can go out and stand alone. As for the seventh rank, they are all the core of the sect. The most important characters are often the pillars of the faction, and the eighth rank is the level of the leader of the Red Immortal Sect.

Although the Red Immortal Sect is not a door-to-door sect, the Red Immortal Sect is the closest to the door-to-door sect in the Seven Continents of Qie Lei. It has also won the name of the door-to-door in history, and it has a deep foundation. When it was a door-to-door, it was not called the Red Immortal It is the "Chilian Immortal Sect", which has countless disciples, and even in the face of the Central Plains sect, they will not fall behind.

"Me..." Lorraine Hill hesitated a little, and decided to reveal some truth.

"Now it's the seventh level of the Qianlong lineage~www.readwn.com~ While she was speaking, she lightly lifted her sleeves, and the agile flames on her wrists were entwined and converged like silk threads. Wings, when waving the magic power, the slowly dissipating heat wave also lifted the girl's hair slightly, like a temporary goddess, sacred and beautiful.

Even though she hadn't concentrated on her practice, Bai Zao was still amazed by the fire bird that was slowly emitting heat. She couldn't believe such a nimble manipulation technique, as well as the introverted and extremely cohesive energy in the fire bird.

I still underestimated Jialan from afar, it seems that it is expected that a girl who was like an exiled fairy in the past has such strength now?

"It seems that a distinguished guest came today."

Bai Zao combed the long hair behind her ears with her hands, and slowly calmed down the surging emotions in her heart. After a long time, she looked at the figure standing in front of the window sill again. Ranhill.

Maybe it's better not to make too much noise tonight, and it's better for Jialan to keep a low profile, otherwise this small courtyard of hers will be broken by the neighbors in the village. Thinking of this, Bai Zao stroked his forehead, feeling suddenly unreal.
