She Is Not a Witch Chapter 61: The story of Cang Zhige
"Thank you for the hospitality~"
After the meal, Lorraine Hill and Lan Lier thanked Penny for the feast, and then prepared to go to Teacher Filia's house.
"Will Feng Nao come with you too? The teacher has given you a very good evaluation recently." Lan Lier suggested.
"Well, I'll go there later, if we all come together, I feel that the teacher will be disturbed." Funo shook his head slightly.
"Okay then, let's go first." Afterwards, Lan Lier, Ling Xin, Lorraine Hill and others waved their hands, then got into the carriage and left Funai's residence. As for Ye Ling, she said that she was sleepy again after eating, and wanted to have a good sleep, so she would not go.
The carriage went all the way, walked through the long street, turned a few corners, and came to the place where Teacher Filia usually stayed, the 'Flowers Beach' cold drink shop.
Compared to the past, the decoration style here has also changed a lot. It seems that it has been renovated recently, and the overall appearance is clearer. There are also a lot of light-white alchemy creations in the store, which are used to make ice cream, cold drinks, and pastries. , snacks and the like.
After greeting the maids on the first floor, they walked to the side stairs under the slightly surprised eyes of the guests, and walked all the way to the third floor.
The second floor is a dance room for training, and the third floor is Mrs. Filia's own writing space. There are also several dressing rooms, which are used for changing clothes or preparing for performances. There are some musical instruments, which are often used by Mrs. Filia herself.
"Here we come, Teacher Filia~"
Accompanied by the sound of going upstairs, Lan Lier ran up the stairs lively and opened the door as before.
"Okay, I got it." Mrs. Filia replied indifferently, probably because she is used to Lan Lier's way of entering the venue.
Afterwards, Lorraine Hill and the others also walked into the room on the third floor. The furnishings here are not much different from the past.
At this moment, Mrs. Filia is still sitting at the desk by the window, with scattered scores and words written by hand in front of her. She is wearing a soft dark purple dress today, and a silver necklace pendant can still be seen around her neck.
Although nearly 10 years have passed, this Mrs. Filia still shows no signs of aging. Perhaps this is also related to her part of the elven blood.
After seeing Lorraine Hill's weak figure out of the corner of her eye, she couldn't help but look up with a surprised expression.
"Is little Lacey back?"
"Well, hello, Teacher Filia." After approaching, Lorraine Hill lightly raised the hem of her skirt and bowed to salute. float.
"You're still so pretty, Lacey." Mrs. Filia looked at the young girl and smiled.
"Come and sit down, I feel like I have a lot to ask you."
"Woo, teacher Fei Liya is eccentric, every time I come here I'm so indifferent, now I see little Lacey so enthusiastic." Lan Lier grumbled unwillingly.
"You come to quarrel with me every day, I'm used to it, how can I compare with Lacey." Mrs. Filia gave Lan Lier a white look, and then pulled Lorraine Hill to look carefully.
"It's really the same as before, it hasn't changed." She looked at Lorraine Hill's head to compare her height, and then glanced at the girl's slender figure that remained unchanged.
Seeing Mrs. Filia examining herself with a professional gaze, Lorraine Hill felt slightly ashamed, but she still stood quietly and let the other party watch.
"Where have you been all these years? I haven't heard from you for a long time, but I'm worried." Holding Lorraine Hill's little hand, Mrs. Filia let her sit beside her, and the two were on the sofa Talk in a low voice.
"After I graduated, I went to the east by sea, but then the sea route was cut off, so I stayed there for a long time." Lorraine Hill explained a little.
"So that's how it is. The East side is also very exciting. Unfortunately, I've only heard about it and haven't actually been there."
"It's the head of the opera troupe of the previous generation. He once went to the Eastern Continent and told me some of his deeds."
"Over there, in the hometown of the Blue Bird Five Kingdoms, there are many factions who are good at music, and among them are craftsmen who specialize in making musical instruments."
"However, the music system of the Eastern Continent is quite different from ours, and many musical instruments cannot be used in common." Mrs. Filia recalled the words of the old grizzled head, and slowly said.
"Hey, has Uncle Holmt ever been to such a far place?" Lan Lier was lying on the other side of the sofa at this time, with her two calves wrapped in white silk raised up from time to time behind her, she asked curiously with.
"Yes, although I am more famous than Commander Homt, in terms of knowledge, I may not be as good as him." Mrs. Filia shook her head.
Although Mrs. Filia inherited the position of head of the Fenghua Opera Troupe and is also a famous singer of the Cang Dynasty, but because she has been teaching in Emenas for these years, she has gone to fewer places.
"When I was young and not very famous, I went to many places with the opera troupe and performed everywhere..." As she spoke, Mrs. Filia recalled her youthful days.
"At that time, teacher, I was also a beauty, ha ha." She thought of some interesting things, covered her mouth and chuckled.
"That's for sure, Teacher Fei Liya is also very good-looking now." Lan Lier praised from the side, and Ling Xin, who was sitting on the wooden chair, also nodded.
"Now, it's definitely not as good as before." Teacher Filia shook her head lightly, but she didn't feel sad, as if she didn't care about such things for a long time.
"At that time, I was in and out of princes and princesses. I used to perform at Titania's Silver Key Fairy Theater." She calmly talked about her amazing past. Lier clicked her tongue to express her surprise.
"The title of Song Ji Cang did not come out of thin air, and there are many powerful competitors along the way."
"I remember when I was in the empire, I met two of them. One was the daughter of a Viscount family. She had charming eyes that seemed to be able to talk, and her singing voice was as charming as the sea breeze. The other was Trey. The young lady of the family, she is wearing a black crow dress, her voice is long and mysterious, and it slowly hits like a clear mist in the mountains, making people sink."
"Then how did the teacher defeat them later?" Lan Lier and Ling Xin asked curiously, at this moment Lorraine Hill couldn't help pricking up his ears.
"Well, let's talk about the grand celebration that year..." Mrs. Filia slowly told the story of the past.
"It was the emperor's birthday at that time, and the eldest prince had just grown up and was not yet married. Many noble girls wanted to express themselves at the banquet, and many opera troupes were also invited to perform in the imperial capital to celebrate. The group went there, they were well-known, and they were also invited...."
"At first, the leader was a little worried, fearing that I would be spotted by some unreasonable nobles because of my outstanding performance."
"In the imperial capital, if a beautiful and beautiful girl does not have power to protect herself, she can easily become someone's prey."
"However, the inviter is Earl Seyford, who is in charge of court affairs, so it's hard to refuse, and finally he reluctantly agreed."
"When we came to the imperial capital, we were amazed by the prosperity there. We went shopping with many companions, and it was there that I met an elf girl."
"After she heard that I was a singer, she was very interested, so I exchanged a lot of experience with her. It can be seen that she is also a music lover."
"After learning about my situation, she offered to help, so it didn't take long before I received an invitation letter from the Landsworth family."
"The Landsworth family is the unicorn duke among the four dukes, with lofty power. I was invited to perform at the banquet at the duke's mansion first, and because of this, I became famous in the first battle, and my fame began to spread in the aristocratic circle. .”
"When I went on stage to compete with those two divas, I also had a lot of fans and fans, so that there was a fairer foundation." Mrs. Filia gradually recalled the past.
"Later the elf girl said, in fact, I also have a little elven blood, so I had a lot of good feelings at the beginning."
"In the end, at the ceremony, the two singers and I performed on the stage one after another, and finally won, which fulfilled the title of 'Singer of the Cang'." Mrs. Filia slowly told the story About 50 years ago.
"What's the name of that elf?" Lorraine Hill asked at this moment.
"Aitya, I found out later that she is the princess of the forest elves."
"Is that so..." Lorraine Hill was thoughtful.
The elf princess Aitexi who came back with her is exactly Atheia's sister. They are the twin princesses of the elf family and are also strong candidates for the next elf queen.
Unexpectedly, more than 50 years ago, the two elf princesses became adults. No wonder Aitexi didn't talk about her age. She is still a growing adolescent.
The puberty of the forest elves lasts for 100 years, and they will not enter maturity until they are 100 years old.
Thinking of this, the girl couldn't help shaking her head. Sure enough, the age of humans cannot be used to calculate the situation of elves.
"Well, there are only so many stories, and other things are relatively ordinary. Most of them are performing with the opera troupe, traveling, seeing the scenery and so on."
"That sounds good, and I'm a little envious." Lan Lier rested her hand on her chin, and there seemed to be many imaginary images in her eyes.
"How about we do the same in the future...."
While Lan Lier was immersed in fantasy, Mrs. Filia and Lorraine Hill slowly exchanged knowledge about the East.
Just like that, time passed slowly, and by the time Mrs. Filia stopped talking, nearly an hour had passed.
"Looking at it this way, Dongfang seems to have reached another extreme in classical music." She seemed to be emotional, and then slowly put it down, and Lorraine Hill also heaved a sigh of relief. In fact, she didn't pay special attention to music in the East, so she had to think hard and recall a lot of details.
"I'm probably tired after talking to me for so long, hehe." Seeing Lorraine Hill forcing herself to continue asking, she couldn't help but smile.
"Go down and have something to eat. Recently, a new taro juice has been prepared in the store. The taste is not bad. You can try it." She stood up and took a few people to the store on the first floor to sit down. , and then asked a few maids to serve up the latest new products.
"You can try this too. Girls should like it." Madam Filia pushed a small plate on the table, and there were several colorful and beautiful macaron biscuits in it. These biscuits are round, slightly chubby, soft in color and have a cute feel to them.
"Thank you." Lorraine Hill nodded and took the plate of snacks.
I always feel that Mrs. Filia still treats her like a child, but judging from her age, this seems to be the case.
Lorraine Hill took a small sip of snacks, and then leaned on the wooden chair woven with vines while holding the icy cold fruit juice, his body gradually relaxed.
The sweet and glutinous taste of taro slowly enters the mouth along the straw, gradually diffuses, and then enters the abdomen, a faint happiness emerges.
After a while, Lan Lier suddenly announced after drinking the juice.
"I've decided that I also want to form an opera troupe, travel around and perform, so that I can expand my reputation, and I can also see the scenery and travel everywhere!" The young girl narrated a bold idea.
"I'm going to have to find a lot of people for this, and there are a lot of chores. It may not be as good as you think." Ling Xin poured cold water on it at the beginning. Unlike Lan Lier who lived in the city since she was a child, Ling Xin who wandered around with the caravan did not think it was a comfortable life.
"This, I have to try it. Although I know that what Ling Xin said is true, I still want to try it. I'm serious this time." Lan Lier said in a rare serious tone.
"Don't be in such a hurry, calm down first." Mrs. Filia shook her head before speaking.
"Why don't you two stay with the Fenghua Opera Troupe for a while. They happen to have plans to go on a tour in the north recently. Get used to it first. By the way, if you want to learn, you can also ask the director of the opera troupe to see them How do you usually deal with strangers, and how do you manage team members and supplies.”
"Wow, it sounds difficult." Lan Lier immediately flinched and raised her hands high.
"Isn't that what you said just now? It's not good to go back on your word so soon." Mrs. Filia looked at Lan Lier with a 'laughing voice'.
"Uh, this, this, I'll get ready. Girls need bad things on the way, and I'm still an alchemist, so I have to bring some experimental equipment and alchemy props." Lan Lier looked Turning to the side, pointing fingers, thinking about how to escape the teacher's grasp.
It's a pity that Lan Lier had nowhere to escape under Mrs. Filia's seemingly substantive gaze, and finally agreed to the confirmed date and itinerary.
"I always feel that what Teacher Filia said today is a trap, leading me into it. The teacher understands my character too well, woohoo." Afterwards, Lan Lier complained to Lingxin in a low voice, saying At this time, Ling Xin had no choice but to respond dumbfoundedly to her own carelessness.
The few people finished their cold drinks, while Lan Lier and Ling Xin left first.
Looking at Lan Lier's fleeing pace, Filia shook her head slightly, smiled, and then spoke to Lorraine Hill beside her.
"Did it scare you too? I have been disturbed by Lan Lier for a long time recently, and I want to find something for her to do."
"She is always full of energy and can't settle down ~IndoMTL.com~ She might feel uncomfortable being stuck in one place like this. But she is also a character who is afraid of hardship and tiredness, so there must be a direction that interests her Only with goals and goals can we have the motivation to do it.”
"I hope that this child can grow and mature after traveling through many places." Madam Filia is worthy of being a teacher of the academy, and she still maintains the idea of cultivating talents.
"Okay, now it's just the two of us, let's continue talking. I know that little Lacey is very unusual." Speaking of this, the still beautiful lady said to Lorraine Hill Blink.
"Uh, okay." Not knowing which of her identities had been exposed, the girl nodded helplessly, and then went back to the attic with Mrs. Filia.
After sitting on the sofa again, the sky outside gradually darkened. The purple fire was burning in the sunset sky, and the light red afterglow shone into the room through the glass window, and the sound of birdsong flew outside the window.
Madam Filia closed the door and sat opposite the girl, her face was a little hazy in the evening light.
"Actually, Lacey is Lorraine Hill, the Star Witch of Clancia."
